New YORK, July 2l.-Additional excite

bv the announcement that Judge Alexander
McCue, one of the largest stockholders OF
the Brooklyn Trust Company. and on
whose application it was forced to suspend
payment, has, since Mills death, been trans
ferring his real estate in heavy blocks to
his wife. to secure himself from loss in case
the company proves insolvent The trans.

In addition TO the deposits hitherto re-

The more searching the investigation the
worse the condition of the concern appears
to be. Secretary W: 7, Rodman denies
that he is also defaulter. asserting that

The following are the latest facts and ru-

Company:
The capital stock Of the company was
$500. 000 but this, it is said, has all Deen ab-

termed worthless loans. The defalcation
of Mills ia between $l5000C and $1,000

the prospect of depostors Jealizlng any

WASHINGTON. July 2i.--Colonel Charles
Case, receiver OF the First National Bank
Of New Orleans, has just arrived, and re-
ports to the Controller of she Currency that
de has intelligence from Messrs. Jevons Il
Ryley, rs solicitors in Liverpool, that the
House Of Lords has recently decided the
las. OF q series Of ehancery cases in his
more 70 :he funds Of the general
creditors Of the bank. When the
bank failed, some SIX years ago,
sundry creditors, who had bought its
bills on the Bank of Liverpool, sought to
secure payment Of theis claims in full by
institut.ng proceedings in chancery in Eng
land, by which they tied up pe'adente lite,
g., ,000, 900 and $4,000, 900 then on deposit in
the Liverpool Bank, upon the theory that
there had been q specific appropriation Of
funds 70 pay the several bills as they we're
negotiated. They seemed confident Of sue
cess, and many Of the creditors were fear
full that this large sum would be lost 10 the
general fund
But the receiver. after careful conside9a-
ton Of the facts, concluded that the suits
ought to be defeated, both because these
facts did not warrant the theory Of any
specific appropriation, and because it was
not within the powers Of 3 national bank 20
make such an appropriation on . time bill
as against the contingency Of its own inter
vening insolvency, He resolved, therefore,
to contest the cases, and did SO.
The decision Of the Vice Chancellor vas
adverse to him; he appealed. and some two
years since the Lord High Chancellor and
three judges with him sitting, pronounced
elaborate opinions regarding che Vice
Chancello1's decree, and decreeing that the
money be paid to the receiver. All but two
of the claimants acquiesced in the decree;
Lords, thus tieing up sl5,eOO Of the funds
two years longer. This appeal, after the
most elaborate argumen. on behalf Of ap.
pe!lants. has just been dismissed with costs.

the miscreants who own such :c-meEts,
through one Of the courts in Washington.
In the follow ing declaration he sets forth
the common grievance in most accurate
style:
The defendant. Kelly, did wrongfully
keep dog, which was used and accus-
toned to bark continually, by day and
night, and that on Saturday last the de-
fendant did then and there allow the dog
to bark necessarily from early in the day
through the whole day and night following,
and did thereby hinder and prevent the
plaintiff from s,adying and transacting his
lawful business by day, and deprive him Of
his sleep during the night, 80 as injuIiously
to affect his health and the peaceful use Of
his property. The second count alleges
the keeping Of the came deg, and that said
dog was dangerous one.
And ssympathizing tribunal has awarded
damages in the sum Of e25 and ordered the
nuisance abated. That settles the case.
