FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL A Day of Rest Among the Bulls and Bears THE FOREIGN MARKET Watt Srnerr, Toxspay, May 30, 1876. ‘The Gnancial heavens have so long been hung in black that brokers doubt whether there be any silver Mning to thecloud. They bave gone on hoping from ®pech toepoch and from season to season, catching & gleam of encouragement now and again only to dis- cover that they have been misled by false lights and shat they have been hoping against hope, There ure some who think they see a glimmer of light in the east which may betoken an approaching dawn of Prosperity, and they give their reasons in this way. They pomt to the fact that since June last thero bas been, with but few exceptions, a decline throughout the entire speculative list, which has brought down prices to a standard which would have been considered a low one a year buck. There is plenty of idle money in the community which woula drift into securities at present dgures, provided there were only a passable belicf tnat hard-pan had been reached and that a reaction was likely to set in. Our hopeful friends claim that existing indices point that way, and that a start is only necessary to be made to set the machine going in running order. Among other ancouraging signs they point to the remarkable success >of the great auction sales of last week—remarkable for the extensive lines of goods marketed and tho unex- pectedly favorable prices obtained. It shows that the over production in tho line of cotten fabrics 1s at last finding consumers, that the country is becoming bare Of goods, and that there 1s plenty of money to purchase supplies when necessity calls for them. Agu, despite the cutting down of tolls for freight and passenger traffic the great railroads continue to » publish increased earnings over. the same period of las, year, and the fact is cited that although the reduction of fares on the Central and Hudson and other roads, toupled with the imminence of the Commodore's death, waa used yesterday as a very battering ram to beat town the market, the effect was but a transient one and as speedily recovered from. Should a general European war grow out of cxist- ing complications: any derangement temporarily to Qnanelal exchanges would be more than compensated | for by the shutting up of the great rival wheat mart of the Black Sea, thus offering a better market for our pwn product, with the attending benefits of an increased tatlroad and shipping traffic. Farther, the market 1s no longer in apprehension of the effect of Mr, Vanderbilt’s demise. The matter has been fully discounted, and 1% would be no surprise, alter the effect of the first announcement, to see a sharp advance along the whole line, to cover short con- bracts which have been based upon this evert. The foregomg aro some of the views put forth by Qnancters who are disposed to take a more cheerful mew of the future. How much of merit or demerit they may contain we leave our readers to figure for themselves, with the simple remark that even a dispo- sition to look upon a bright side is one step toward success, The events of yesterday having been fully described it Is only necessary, in the absence of businoss and for ‘the purpose of convenience, to append the closing prices, which follow:— CLOSING PRICES—3 P.

He gives a most emphatic denial to the statement that any barshness was used on the occasion mentioned or that he was influenced by any feeling in the matter other than that which should actuate every public officer in the discharge of his duty. Captain Lowery said, “On the Friday preceding the arrest of Mr. Koster’s barkeeper I gave each man under my command a copy of the Excise law and marked cut in brackets the particular sections to which 1 desired to call his atiention. On Sunday I eatoreed the law without any malicious feeling, having nobody \o fear and nobody toiavor, Between uiue and ten o’clock on the eveuing in question I noticed that Mr, Koster’s place, at the corner of Worth and Chatham streets, was lighted up as on ordinary occasions, while | 3 veral parties were seated outsiue, ghe chairs being | evidentiy supplied from with. Roundsman Dean, by my orders, tried the door, but as intimation of ‘our - visit had uoubtless been given by those in the vicinity, he could not gain admittance. The roundsman wld me that he coulda plainly see through the Window that beer was being suld to purties inside in public violation of the law, I remonstrated with Mr. Koster, and informed ‘him that ander tne circum. stances it was my duty to see that the barkeeper was arrested; whereupon Mr. Koster suid something in Germun, the varkeeper ascended to the attic and came out by ‘a ladder which was placed against the wa Roundsman Dean at once arrested him. There was no violence used whatever. The case was clear, and be- came an aggravated ono by the tact of the defiant measures adopted to evade the law. The varkeeper was discharged when taken to the ‘Tombs, Mr. Koster swearing that no beer was sold on his premises, The Toundsman of course only saw from the ouside, but he was pretty positive ontihe suvject. Again, it has been stated that I called the defendant’s counse! a har, which I certainly never did, endo far irom Judge Wandell rebuking me he insisted on allowing mne to be heard, That i8 the whole case, I simply endeavored to do my duty without tear, favor or aftvction. Had 1 failed to carry out my instructions I should have been held responsible.” THE SHELTERING ARMS. The Sheltering Arms held its annual reception yesterday, at the homo of the instiution, corver of 129th street and Tenth avenue, A large number of its friends and benefactors were present, and the exercises were of a very interesting character. The children ‘wore examined in their studies and were put through some imbitary evolutions, A report tor the last year was alsoreaa by the resident of the association. This showed them to be in quite a prosperous condi- ign, though they are still unable to mect the extensive demands made upon them. There are at present about 135 inmates, though during the year about 200 eligible cundidates were necessarily denied admittance on ac- count of their limited accommvdations, IDENTIFYING "HE DEAD. The unknown man found atthe foot of Fifty-seventh Street, North River, Monday morning, was yesterday identified as Albert Grafstadt, aged twenty-two, of No. 453 West Fifty-fourtn street. He bas been missing from his home since the 22d inst. His cyes were dis- colored when found, and there was a cut over his loft eye, which gave rise to suspicions of foul play, The tan 1s supposed to have committed suicide. The unknown man found drowaed at the fvot of Bloomfeld street by Patrick King, last Sunday after- noon, was yesterday identified as James Maher, for- merly of the United. States Army. A BABY IN A BAG, . While William Mason, the colored servant of Mr. L, Montague, of No. 140 Fitth avenue, was clearing the yard of bis employer's residence yesterday morning, ho noticed acoffee bag lying ina corner, which he picked up for the purpose of throwing over the lence. As he swung the bag, it opened and revealed the dead body of a negro tniant idently but recently born. hastened tu notify the police of his strange discov- cry, and Captain Steers, of the Twenty-uinth precinct, took charge of the bag and its conients, which he for- warded to the Morgue to await the action of the Coro- ner. As yet the police bave no ciew to the person who Placed the bag in the yard. ASSAULTING A FERRYMASTER. Last evening at nine George Washington, a native of England, aged thirty, a boukkeeper, of No. 6 Thomas street, in this city, was arrested in Hoboken while in the company of his wife and children for striking Fermmaster Luird, of the Hobokea ferry, on the fave with all bis force With acanc, Washington, who was slightly Invoxteated, commenced the affair by pushing with his cane the wickels and silver tn the jerry- mmasiers’ counter, Mr. Laird told him to desist, where- upon Washington struck Dim ucruss the fee. brongbt bere Serycant Ringe wt the Hoboken Station, Mrs. Wasuington sald that it was ber la (she alive was to Wem, yesterday in reference to the alleged outrage committed . PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL. ASSEMBLY. BUSHING BUSINESS THROUGH—FINAL ADJOURN- MENT TO-DAY—A CLERICAL EXCURSION. The Assembly is beginning to thin out and the final adjournment will take place to-day at noon. The chief busivesa of the Church has been already accom- plished, “fhe Assembly yesterday decided to record in full the votes of the presbyteries for and agairst the last Assembly's overture on representation and the number of those failing to report, The Finance Com- mittee reported thut they had examined certain ac- counts of the trustees of the Presbytcrian Home, &c., found them correct and asked that they be approved. Overtures had been received {rom tho presbyseries of Alleghany, Pittsburg and Redstone, asking the Assembly to reafirm former deliverances on the subject of the sanctivy of the Sabbath. Such a de- liverauce was made, though the committee declare that the judgment of the Assembly on this subject is well known and needs not a repetition from year to year. Av overture from Lincoln University asked for a modi- fication of the rules of the Church touching the licens- ing of colored candidates for the ministry. The com- mittee answers that the Assembly has no authority to make any changes im the law of the Church, but tt Tecognizes the propriety of presbyteries using discre- tion in the licensing of such persons who may not in every respect moet the: requirements of the standard of the Chureh. The appropriation of $500 to the Los Vegas Northern Methodiat church, made a few days ago, was reconfirmed, there being some doubt about ‘the legality of the former vote. A memorial oa minis- terial insurance was read and politely returped to the memorialists, there being no assurance of supe- rior beneit in this and no necessity for it. Dr. Breck- enridge presented an overture asking that all judicial cases be referred toa committee of which the Moderator shall be chairman, and that they consider and report to the next Assembly what shall vest be done with this matter, and that a permanent commis- sion be appointed, who shill try all cases, and their decision shall be final and conclusive, the commission merely reporting their action to the Assemby trom Year to year, A committee of seven was appointed, to whom the entire matter of representation was com- mitted.e This committee are to propare a plan to be submitted to the next Assembly, aud are also re- quired to print their plan at least two months before the meeting of the Assembly, so that presbyteries may know whut they shali be called to vote upon. Dr, Aiken wanted the overture reported by THR COMMTTEX ON CHURCH POLITY on Monday night (making twenty ministers the unit of representation iwstead of fiity) sent down to presby- teries, so that both parties can bave « hearing on this matter, Dr. Alken deemed this necessary to quiet the agitation of the Church and settle next Assembly. Dr. Ryerson inoved that no presbytery Le left without a representation of one min- ister and one elder. This was declared to be inconsit tent with the overture. A delegate showed that the two synods of Atlantic und Colorado, which coptain ten presbyteries and seveuty-tive ministers, will, uader this overture, send twenty commissioners to the Assembly, waile the two presbyteries of New York and Philadel- phia, contatuing 256 ministers, can send onty fourveen. Cyn anything be more inconsistent and unfair than this? ‘This ameudment was lost and the overture itself was adopted uud wil! be sent dowu to presbyteri with tue overture making fifty the unit ot rep sentation, Which was sare on Monday night, The Committee on Church Polity made report on an over- ture from the Presbytery of Now York asking the Assembly to detine ie relation of mission pastors aud churches to the parent churches which support them and the pastors of those churches. ‘Ihe report cal the mission minister a “anssion pastor” and his chapel an “arsuciate chapel,” avd that both be so recorded in brackets in the statistical tables. Dr. Adams spoke against this and moved to lay it on the wbie, which was done, The Presbytery of Mattoon askeu for an overture on the aboliuon of ‘commitice say it is inexpedient, and the so too. Another report gave retured 1h the higher judicatoriea. Adopted, Another overture provided that whenover a church by a majority of its members decides ou electing term elders, whenever sach elders shall have been crdained aud inducted into office those then in office shall cease to hold their oflice unless they shall be elected \bereto, Adopted, The Synod of the Pacttic was reduced by taking thereirom the Presby- tery of Oregon, which ee een comprises 6u0 square miles of territury, ut 33 ministers, 26 churcues aud over 2,000 communicants, The cou- figuration of the country makes i difficult for the presbytery now to hold its eessions, aud many of muinistet never able to be present. The terri- tory embra m this presbytery was divided juto the presbyteries of Oregon, Southern Oregon and Puget Sound, and these three were constituted the Synod of the Columbia, Eider Lockwoua, of Colorady, and Dr. Lindsley, of Oregon, spoke in favor of ts meusure, though otbers spoke a@zainst it on financial grounds. The synod of Central Minos asked tor a revision of the Directory ot Wor- ship, 80 a8 to provide a ritual jor marriages, tuneruls, positions in “church worship, &c., im-which, according to Dr, Edwards, of Peoria, there is nothing like unite. formity in the Presbyterian Charch. The Methodist or Congtegationalist says, ‘Let us rise an ig,” or “Let us kneel and pray,” and the pie rise or kneel, as the case may be, But the Presbyterian minister says, “Let us sing or pray,” and the people do both as tley please, The discussion was cut short by the hour of recess, AFTERNOON SESSION, At the opening of the atiernvoon session the decisions of the several judicial comimmsions wero approved, im accordance with the decision of the Moueraior that those decisions are final and weed pot be approved sep- arately by the Assembly, Certain persous were elected on the Board of Education. ~The Mileage Com- mittee reported its receipts for this Xesembiy, 24,834 61, and the payments to 627 commissions is $23,328, or an average of $44 14 per delegate. The ratio in 1875 was $33 «3 ed vid delegate. ln 1874 it was $50, in 1873 $43, 1n 1872 $38 and in 1871 $3 331-3. This Assembly has cost $6,000 more than that of last year im Cleve- land. Eleven foreign presbyteries have commission- ers here. During thoso years there has been an accumulating balance, which now amounts to over $10,000, s0 that the committee recommended a mile- age tax ot live cents per capita for the next Assembly A ed. ir. Edwards aguin took the floor on the ritual revis- jon, and asked lor a committee 10 consider and report Additiong, emendations, &c., to the ritual, to be laid before the noxt General Assembly. The whole mater was laid on the tabie. The Home Mission Board were asked tu enforce tue rules of the Assembly, requiring all the mission churches to contribute to all the boards of the Church. This was opposed by Dr. Kendall as unpracticable. The Board could not enforce it, so that it would bo adead letter on the statute books. Dr. | Breckenridge opposed it, because it would be a great burden and gricvanee to many feeble churches, who are barely able to contribute to the homo board which aids them, and two of which, to whom he ministers, are unable to pay bim one dollur for the sup- Port of the ministry, The statistical ‘ables used in the Assembly’s minutes previous to 1875 were restore twenty or thirty presbyteries having overtured tor tie same, A culamn for Women’s work was also added, and the Assembly’s tix omitted instead, The Presby- tery of Northumberiand asked for an overture recom. mending tho order of deaconesses in the churches. Denied. The foreign missionuries ask for a Presbyte- rian alliance in Indi which shell have Jurisdiction over certain cases that may arise there without referring them to this court, Keferred to the Foreign Mission Hourd to report tothe next Assembly. A requesi to permit responsive readiugs by the people in charch worship was answered by the commitice that there now no prohibition to that practice and no need fora deliverance on the subject. An overture asked it 1 was right to admit to the Lord’s table perscns who are not in membership in any church, and the answer was a negative, Av overture [rom Boston Presbytory asks what shail be done with members of presbytery who nev appear in presbytery, give no re rts nor ict thelr brethren know their whereabouts. jt was answered to keep the names on the roll until the brethren can be found and they be, dis- ciplined for violation of ordination piedges to sifbmit to the godly admonition of thetr bretbren. A charch aeked how tt could be transierred to another denomsua- ton, and was answered by consent of its presvytery, the property question involved to be decided by the civil courts, The hig ite on church erection was taken up and Rev. Dr. Wilson, Secretary of the Board, spoko there- on, The amount received last year was $126,000, which was $20,000 more than that of the previous yea The expendiwures amounted to $99,000, aad though the number of churches aided wero fewer the separ- te appropriations were targer. Tho cost of collecting and aiebursing thie jount was only eight per cent. ‘The Board supplies designs and specifications of build- ings to churches tor §5. They would cost $100 or $200 to each church should they employ an architect. ‘The Assemoly took an excursion ap to and around Black- weli’s Island and down to Governor's Island at the ex- pense of the Union Ferry Company alter its afternoon kexsion, AS the members were about to step off at the Brooklyn ferry, Dr. Willis, of Washington, D. C., made a little speech and offered a resolution of thanks to the Ferry Company, which was adopted with three cheers. METHODIST GENERAL CONFERENCE.

FACTS ABOUT THE MOIETY CASE. Adjournment of the Investigation After Eight Days’ Work. The Congressional sub-committee, which has been for the past week investiguting the United States Cir- cult and District courts, the Marsbal’s office and the District Attornty’s department, as well as gathering facts us to the working of the ciection Jaws in this city, held tts tinal sossgom yesterday at the Astor Hou Mr, E. R. Meade, the chairman of tho sub-committee, Mr. Caulfield, the chairman of tho full committee on the Department of Justice, and Mr. Joyce, the repub- lican member of this sub-committee, were present, Mr. Cochrane being absent, William E. Podge was cxamined as to the facts in the Weil known case of Pheips, Dodge & Co, In nig testi- mony He stated that his firm settled the government cluim against them for $260,000, but imeluding the costs, &¢., the toial amount paid footed tp. $271,000. His firm never paid Jujge Davis a dollar, directly or imdirectiy, and never gave any one of their counsel, Messrs, Wakeman, Fullerion and Knox, any money for such a purpose, He went to Washington to see Mr. Boutwell and had an tter- view with him at his house, the Secretary being sick at the time, and described to him Jayne's course inthe caso, He thought tt better to settle at $260,0v0 than to lose $750,000 more, as it was alleged that the gov- ernment agents cla‘med the total amount involved to be $1,000,000. After the most careful investigation of the books these agents found that, at the most, the ir- regularities against the government regulations could not be made out at more than was covered by $2,000, and the duty on this would not exceed $1,400 or $1,500, Witness made the first offer of settlement within a week alter being apprised of the claim, He never offered to pay $400,000 in settlement, There was no doubt at any time in his mind but that General Butler got a portion of the money paid. He supposed that Jayne could tell what became of that money it be could be believed on oath, Senator Conkling was in consultation with Butler, Buss, Jayne, Laflin and Cornell. He looked on Conk- ling as the general adviser, bat particularly for friend Laflin. He considered that improper means Were resorted to for the purpose of exturtion, from tho Jact that there was a liability to have $1,700,000 confla- cated, Witness velieved that he was an injured man, ‘Tho next witness examined was Judge Davis, Mr. Bhss’ predecessor as United States District Attorney. He saul that about December 22, 1872, a carriago was sent after him to convey bim to the Custom House, where he found Mr, Jayne, Mr. Cornell and Mr, Latlin in Jayno’s private room, Jayne said that be had been working up that case of Phelps, Dodge & Co. Witness then looked among the papers and saw the affidavit of one of thy former employés. He gave it as his opmion at that time that the case required further investigation, Jayne proposed to seize the papers of the tirm, and witness would not then azree to thut, but cousentea to having an affidavit prepared which should be seut t the District Attorney’s office the following morning, and he would muke application for the procoss to the courts and take it to the Custom House. He also ree- ommended that before any warrant was executed « letter should be addressed to some member of the firm aunouncing the condition of affuirs. In response to the letter Messrs, Dodye and James went to the Custom House an‘ were ioformed that their books and figures would ve required, ‘They suid they were willing to ac- cede to this request, and that if it could be proved they had defrauded the government they were willing to re- imburse tho Treasury. Witness did not see Jayne agai until December 30, when the latter told him the discoveries were fully equal to his expectatious, Jayne said that Phelps, Dudue & Co. were willing to settie, gnd figured up the amount that should be paid At $260,000, bat put asan | pproximation the sum uf $250,000. Witness asked Jayue WOW MUCH THE GOVERNMENT ACTUALLY Lost by Phelps, Dodge & Co, and he answered about $1,600. Witness then suid that Phelps, Dodge & Co. would not consent to pay any such suin’as that pamed by Jayne to be demanded, Witness returned to his office with tse understanding that the Collector would direct him to commence # suit for $200,000, and tbat the attorneys woudl uppear at once and give stipulation or “voz noyit” for Unwt sum, Witness met Mr. Bliss at the office, on the morning of December 31, and offered to divide the fees with him in ihe Phelps, Douge & Co, cuse, Mr, Bliss said that the case was not settled; that some one bad been playing with bit, and that there was no use in going 10 the Custom House. Witness went to the Custom House, however, and there found My. Laflin, the NaVal Officer, and the Collector, and (be thought) Mr. Cornell, Sr. Jaye and Mr. Conkiwg. He stated to these yentiemen that he was willing to give them uny advice he could, but wanted it distinctly Ghderstvod that he wouid wot uncer any cir- cumstances take a fee, and he never got a fee in the case. ‘The next witness examined was District Atiorney Bilss. He tesiiticd to sum + ports avout which he was not positive When last before the committee. in the case of Woodruil & Kubigson the suit was commenced December 16, 1573, and settled January 6, 1874. The indictment against Blaichtord was obtained Novem 15, 1869; was icit antouched by Disi Pierrepont and Davis, and was “nolliew’® January 3, 17%. In tuis case, dir. Bliss stated, no human being ever approached him, nor did a human bemg ever know what action he proposed to take until after his own decivion as to the course he should pursue was made known. In regard to Deputy Marsha! Croly, he said ne believed Croly to bo the best detective he had ever met. At his (witness’) request, Croly devoted most of his time co ihe work of the District Attorucy’s oilice, and there was an understunding between them that this was to be done even at the risk of Cre dismisgal irom the Secret Service Department. When Croty was dismissed he thea em: ployed him tu the District Attorney's office ata salary which, with bis pay as Deputy Marshal, would amount to $1,800 a year, It was owing to Croiy’s ingenuity mayniy thet the arrest of Lawrence was secured. Wit- ness desired to bave Croly keep aloof from the Secret Service Department because he did pot like some of the doings of that department, He thougit there was a tende! among the Secret Service agents to msti- gate to crime, a proceeding which he could not toler. ate, Since he became Visirict Attorney there was po cuse 10 bis office in which a Joseph Deane was the principal. Nor did it happen durimg the same time that auy quantity of cigars, loreign or domestic, ever came to bis ofice connection with official carcs or otherwise, No Case containing 18,000 cigars ever came to the oflice since be became District Attorney. Mr, Bliss mvited the committee to interrogate bin as to any other pots they might desire, but he was sab- jected to no turther examination. The commitice remained in the Astor House during the afternoon to ailord persons whe might desire to rtanity to do so, Yesterday bi ng a out clock in the evening DECLARED ITS SESSIONS IX THE CITY CONCLUDED, adjourued, re. Mende, Cantueid ‘and for Washington by the nine u’elock train, During the eight days the committee has been in session it bas worked iadetatigably. Not content with day sessions, the members sat each evening in order U0 give persons a chance to testy who might be meonvenenced by atteoding during tbe afternoon, Messrs. Meade, Canifield aud Cochrane wore searching in their examihdtions, and Mr. Joyce kept most vigilant watch fur the inveresis of the re- publiewn pari There is no doubt but that the labors ot the committee will produce in the Un.ted Stau Courts in this city benelicial results and will lead to much needed reform4n many particulars, Within the tine barely leading pots could ve touched on in the mvestigution, but enough was elicited to show that there is need of legislation to remedy abuses, The general belie! that it Jonn I. Davenport were investi- gated thoroughty most damaging proofs of waut of integrity would be discovered proved Lo be faila~ cious, for no witness attempted xo impugn his rivale character, And the worst said of him was that e Was apartisan 10 politics, The most rigid part of the tmvestigation was directed aguinst bim, and the committee has adjourned Jeaving bim beyond ali doubt with the reputation of being 4 most able politician, and the man at the present day most feared by all the democratic ward politicians, Mr. Meade and dir. Caul- field are both satisfied with the result of their Jabors, which were pretty constant and serious, and believe they will be able to muke such recommendations to Gongress on the subjects investixaied as will add to the efficiency of the departments investigated.
