BEEN ISSUED FOR THE ARREST OF mr. ROB-
INsON AND DIR. NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. OF THE
STEAMER, &C.
From The San Franeiseo Herald, FEB. =.
Corsidt rabe excitement was crested yesterday, by
the circulation of rumor that Mr.. Robinson, one Of
the proprietors Of the Savings Bank and DIR, A.
Wright proprietor of the Miners Exchange Bank,
had been arrested on board the Uncle sam, which
ssied Yesterday for San Juan having in their posses
sion large amount Of property in coin and securities.
The whole sffsr 10 enveoped in considerable mys-
terry and the true state Of the facts could not be sscer
tanned. Is was asserted that Robinson arrested
on board the Uncle Sam, and $4,000 in specie and
600 coo in securities were found in hs possession
snd also, thst certain psrties TO whom be was in
dtb'ed discovered large amount of money said to
be eco, 00o) which had been slowed away somewhere
for safe keeping.
We give the rumors for what they are worth. The
circulation, however Of these reports, csused con.
siderable excitement, and at time it feared
that an attack would bs made on either of the bank
ing houses named. 1t Is certain that the stesmer
detained for two three hours beyond the appointed
tine for sailing; but whether the delay was occa.
stoned by the heavy fog which settled over the bay
in the eTy part of the day by the Sheriff search
ing the vessel are unable 10 say. Ii was also
ported during the day that person had been arrested
on MOntgomeryst on whose person large amount
of RobDson's securities was found. We have ascer-
tanned, beyond the possibility of doubt, thst war
rant iss ued from the Superior Court for the ar
rest of DIR. Wright at the suit Of Isaac Fry. who al
eges that he Indebted 10 him in the sum of 50
and in The sfidavit upon which the warrant OF Arrest
was issued, Gays that be has been inform by di-
"vers persons snd verify believes that the said de-
"fepdsnt Wright is about to leave the State OF Cali
"fornis with intent defraud bis creditors on the
steamer which leaves the port of San francisco for
" Nicaragua, on Monday, the 2sth inst. and that he
"wil DO 80 unless restrained BY the process OF this
"Court
On this AFFIDAVIT. warrant was Issued FOR the srrest
Of DR. Wright and was placed il the hands Of Deputy
Sheriff Dowdegsn; but whether he was arrested or
rot upon that warrant, we cannot positively state.
The whole affair In regard to Mr. Robinsol ID wrap
ped in the most iupenersble fog, and it would seem
that all the rumors in regard TO him entirely
founded from the faci thst il could not be asceraned
from what Court the warrant issued and also that
eetne Of his creditors is csei for this afternoon
when statement Of the affairs Of the institution Of
