The Case Of Captain Howgate.

NOT MUCH OF HIS PERSONAL EXPECTS LEFT FOR
CREDITORS.
The inventory of the personal effects of Capt
H. W. Howgate levied on by the Marshal in the
suit Of the United States against him was COM
pleted yesterday. Some property which it was
thought belongedto Captain HOwgate was found
to be in the name of his daughter. and after the
exemptions had been made the remainder footed
up only $562. The appraisers were Granville p.
Cooper, H. G.. Thorn and w. r. Thornton.
WHERE Is HowGATE2
There is considerable conjecture as to whether
Capt Howgate has not fled the country, and
some OF his former friends are now of the opin-
ion that he is now on his way to Europe or has
gone to Mexico 1t is said that besides making
the deed OF trust osecure his bOndsmen (Messrs.
w. w. Mccullough. w. B. Moses and Motley
Anderson), which was not put on record until
after the marshal had seized the property in the
attachment suit for S101. 600, healsO gave deed
OF trust on some property to secure his counsel.
No such deed has, however, been Dut on record
nor is it definitely known that there is such
deed in existence
TWO OF THE BoNDsMEN UNEASY.
At least two of the sureties are not quite GER
tain that Capt. Howgate will return voluntarily
Tor trial. and one of them, who yesterday morn
ing could not bring his mind to believe that
Capt. Howgate would act dshonorably in the
matter, was last evening making inquiries as to
how hecould save himself and was endeavoring
TO md some property which could be attached
by him.
There are some reasons to believe that Mr.
Moses. one of the bondsmen, has had some
transactions with HOwgate Independent of the
case, Which have resulted in an attachment suit
under the title of Moses agt. Howgate but asyet
no such suit has been fled 1t is stated that Mr..
Moses endorsed for Capt. HOwgate note for
over $3.50, which became due just after the
nearing, which he paid, and, Mr.. Moses, it is
further said has attached furniture owned by
Howgate in house on X street. near 18th, SO
that he will lose nothing by this transaction.
