CAToGNI's CAsE.-B. Catogni, bankrup',
charged with defrauding his creditors by
secreting his assets, was before United States
Commissioner Atkins yesterday evening. He
was represented by Messrs. Edward 7. Can
non and Johu Lyon, and the creditors by
Messrs. George D. Wise, John A Coke, W.
w. Cosby, aud Hill Carter. Counsel for de.
fence moved to quash the warrant as being
too general. The Commissioner overruled
the motion, and the accused then waived ex-
animation. Counsel for creditors claimed
the right to examine witnesses, so as to allow
the prosecution to get an insight into the
case; which question was argued until
about 7 O'Clock at night, when further
hearing was post poned until to-day. Catogni
was admitted to tail in the sum of four
thousand dollars for his appearance to-day.
