The New York Custom. II Ouse Investi
cation.

The Senate Committee on Investigation and
Retrenchment, at a few minutes to IL O'Clock
to-day, resumed the investigation of alleged
fraudulent practices i'm the New York custom
house. Mr.. Thomas Murphy, ex-cOllector of the
port OF New York, was again before the CO n
mittee, and corrected his testimony Of Saturday,
in which he said that he had a conversation
with the President about Leet last fall On
loet!!.::. over the register at the Arlington he
found that 1t was last May that he had the con-
versatiOn with the President about Leet. The
committee then took q recess until O'Clock at
WHICH time Mr.. Murphy resumed his testimony.
On his crOss-examinatiOn by Mr.. Bayard, Mr.
Murphy testified that he always understood til at
the collector had sole and exclusive control of
the general order business; when witness first
became collector the principal part Of the gen.
eral o: der business on the North river was done
by Macon & Co.; part of 1t was done by Leet &
Stocking; he closed up Mason & Co.'s store be-
cause he believed q defalcation existed; subse-
quent investigation proved that his suspicious
were correct, rs 257 boxes and bales were miss
ing, and no one came to claim the goods seized;
nad no personal acquaintance with Leet prior
70 ms witness confirmation by the Senate; had
peen collector three or four months before he
became acquainted with Stocking; Leet never
asked witness for the general order business;
many persons applied to him for this business;
the most persistent applicants were the steam
ship companies; the fact was that the desig.
natiCo Of Leet and Stocking was purely acct
dental; the idea that the general order busi.
ness 10 valuable Ia erroneous.

PHOTeGRAPHEE's RE~ENGR-Dr. H. vo-
gel, writing from Germany to the philadelphia
Photographer, relates queer case. A photogra
pher made pictures of two brothers, who refused
to take or pay for them on the ground that they
were not likenesses. The artist complained
but the judge was of the same opinion as the
brothers, and decided that the pictures were not
likenesses. Mr.. Photographer then went home
with his rejected pict nres. and placed them in
his show window, with the label: 1.-The murder
ers of Mrs. "" The brothers then waited on
the artist, and alleged that IL was libel to ex-
pose their pictures with such title, and, on hi.
refusal to remove the placard, they entered suit
1t remains to be seen how the judge will decide
In this new phase of the affair."
