THE PHELPS STEAL.
How the Defa ulting Cashier Secured
Possession or the State Funds.

ALBANY, N. Y, Oct. II, 1873
The State Treasurer has received replies from
the county treasurers, and finds that the drafts
they forwarded are all correctly noted in Phelps
book and that there is deficiency OF about
5000 0o0 Some OF the drafts surrepttiously used
by Phelps were endorsed by him as cashier, but
large part were regularly endorsed by Deputy
Treasurer Paul. Fiity-hve thousand dollars OF the
latter have been brought to light, payable to
Charles Hudson, cashier. Hudsons name on these
drafts was written in by Phelps Charles Hudson,
cashier is connected with the firm OF F. II. Sher-
win n Co., New York. The drafts should have
been made payable to E. Groesbeck, cashier OF the
Albany commercial Bank, and deposited In that
bank BY making them payable to Hudson Phelps
diverted them from their proper depository and
made them available to himself, probably through
Hudson. Phelps had no right to endorse drafts.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct II, 1873.
As was stated in q recent issue OF the HERALD,
the meeting Of the subcommittee OF the City
Council to render reports and opinions concern
ing the doings Of certain railway corporations
amounted the other day to nothing at all. on the
contrary everything was complex, unntegible
and mysterious, and in all that was done
there were few indications that any positive inves-
tgaton in such hands was likely to be made. The
report OF the majority was read and set aside. The
report OF the minority was treated in precisely
the same manner; and as the members who COM
posed the committee were constantly wrangling
and pickering like wild animals, it became evident
that nothing like a clear and concise measure
could ever proceed from such antagonistc spirits,
Tue subcommittee. therefore, was discharged, and
the whole subject referred to the General Commit
tee OF Raj roads, which met this afternoon.
AT the opening Of the meeting Mr.. Hanna moved
that the committe should adjourn until next Mon
day, and at that time consult with city directors
OF the Philadelphia and Erie who control the city
stock. Mr.. Bckel at once arose and said that
such an issue would be impossible because the
city directors would not come. He read letters
from some OF them to this effect, and said that
they considered 1t the height of mpudence for CITY
councils to vote to lnterrogate them, and referred
to a speech made by one of the city directors, in
which reference was made to their impertinence.
Alter great deal OF debate, involving nothing
but personal matters, it was agreed that the meet
ing should adjourn until Friday next at two P. NJ,
When The city directors, the officers OF the
railroads and the stockholders OF the Pennsylva-
nj and Erie road will be requested to be on hand,
with all the books reports, &C., rom 1865 to the
present date. Thus is this important matter again
postponed, and the question naturally arises when

sorts OF witnesses be enacted. On the sex to
which she is assumed to belong she spoke thusly:-
that the present social system, enforced both by
law and falsely educated public opinion, makes every
woman dependent for support ap9 comfort upon some
man and i does not give the least Consideration as 70
