A charge of conspiracy In which Bumoer OF creu-
tors were defrauded Of about 100000 cane 70 hsns
yesterday at jefferson Market Court. Two "oh
dressed men, one middle aged and the other not yes
twenty.thrcc years old, were the accused. The men
were Francis J. C. Ferris and James 5. Co~hp' Do'n

alteration on January IA Ferris transferred all MS
assets and Cowiin assumed pay ment OF ferrss naoo

Ferris and Cowlin sent Herman Utitz to Europe to
buy goods in March, 1857, and when no returned In
September he informed bis employers that he had
bought goods exceeding 100000 on credit
AS Ferris failed to pay the balance OF $4,000 to
Mrs Johnston, she sued him for the amount before
Judge DAILY of the Court Of Common Pleas, last APRIL
and Jury granted her judgment for tho full amount
The sfTdavit goes TO state that on september ~
Cown had transferred by bill OF sale to Ferris all tho
goods In the bonded warehouse In value over SSoooo'
without any actual consideration. The next day cow
lin transferred to Ferris all his outstanding accounts
amounting about $4,000 and then confessed judy
was issued and caused the entire stock of goods
In the store to DO sold by the sheriff. On the same
day Cow lin made genera assignment which showed
that Cowln owed SlT2 co., and that his entire assets

Scarcely any Of Cowlns cash assets the afhdavis
