About 10 O'Clock last night the deputy marshas
brought in gentleman who has been dong lahu onoo
busnoss lately in getting citizens papers for Polish
residents some of whom are believed to nave oeeh
very brief period inhabitants of this country.
In the Court House he was known as Michael Green
berg but he vehementy denied that tat was his name
Gutten, he said, was his rightful cognomen. MI
Davenport sitting as Commissioner said that did not
make any material difference. His actions smeiled as
loud whether perfumed under the name OF Greenperg

ANOTHER STRANGE TRANSACTION.
The pr,soner was charged with selling and barterng
fraudulent certificate purpOtng to admit one Treulich
TO citizenship and with furnishing witness TO Ireulch
Who had not known him more than thirty minutes
prior TO swearing in the name.
For this valuable service Mr. Treullch had paid the
very moderate sum of 80. Greenberg, or Glltten had
taken the money from Treuch in the presence OF two
other witnesses, but had allowed his bogus witness,
whose / know, bat am pledged not to use until
he has been apprhended, TO do all the work inside;
Treulich and the two eye witnesses 10 the monetary
transaction appeared and identified the prisoner posi-
lively. BY whatever name he was known OUTSIDE ne
known GreenberS in and about the County
Court House.
A DAMAGING ADMISSION.
"Do Won know Nj" said The Commissioner sud
denly mentioning the name Of the false swearer
Il have seen him in the Court House. said Green
berg, taken unawares.
oh, then you admit having been there % said Mr..
Davenport.
Yes, 1 was there said Greeuberg sullenly.
Like the Italian before him, he waived examination
and was locked up to await the action of the Grand
Jury, and Mr.. Davenport went home late at night,
leaving instructions that wnen his confederate was
brought in 10 lock him up over night.

East side saloons and the deputy marals caught him
without license. Mr. Davenport said last night that
he was an out and out Tammany man and one Of the
most important sharks upon the list.
" The Poles and RUSSIANS viii lose good friend IN
him. said he.
The evidence against Greenberg is almost strong
that against the Italian, but the picturesque cards
of Imothy Dry Dollar are missing in this case.
