ANOTHER WALL SIREET FLUTTER. Seenibinnss of « Hnlf-Millton Cotton Failure hk Turned Out to bé a Mere Miscal- culation—A Theory of Fraud Exploded. It was rumored in Wall street, yesterday afternoon, that Sessams & Co, a heavy cotton firm of Galveston, Texas, — had victimized certain bankers of this city to the tune of over halfamillion dollars, by drawing against cot- ton which had “never been shioned. The gosal: had it that Morton, Blivs & Co., Gardner, Bacon e Co., Williams & Giion, and several others, had been victimized, and some went 40 far into particulars as to explain how it was Cone, and how the firms felt aboutit, ‘The true story of the olleved swindle, as given to our reporter, is substantially as fohows: About six Weeks ago Messrs. Seasums & Co,, of Galveston, drew ona firm in this city for a considerable amount (but not so much as the gossips said), expecting to cover thoir draft by a shipment of cotton. This cotton they “had in the press, and were nnable to sbio because of the weather. ‘soon after drawing on tho New York house, Sessums & Co, were forced to suspend, and their creditors in Galveston seized the cotton in press, Of course under those cireumstances they could Rot ship the cotton to New York to cover their draft.
