The hearing in the case of the collision
between the steamers Mary +. Perley and
City of Kingston. which took pisce oppo-
site West point on the morning of Novem-
Der 10, was held before Inspectors Bryant
and Bullene yesterday afternoon and the
case taken under advisement. The crews
OF both steamers were examined and the
testimony as a whole was the same as pub
lished in the Posr-IsTELLIGEScER at the
time OF the collision. The only point of
variance seemed to lie in the relative
positions OF the two boats and the alarm
whistles. Capt Redding, OF the Perley said
he knew ne was about in the kiugston's
path, but didn'I think they were so close
together. Ii was shown by the testimony
that both captains handled their boats in
an admirable manner. and only on ae-
count of their prompt action was a serious
accident ayerted. The damage done to the
Kingston amounted 10 about 500.

A NAPOLEON or FINANCE.
now Cashier Brander Nearly Wrecked
the Nevada Bank.

SAN FRANcfsco. Dec. f0.-A man who
spent 81. O00, 900 of other peoples money.
nearly wrecked q bank and concluded
financial operation that startled the world.
is now indicted for making false report
of the condition of an insurance company.
George l.. Brander conducted the great
wheat deal of lso7, using the money. the
securities and the credit of the Nevada
bank, of which he was cashier. He con-
fessed bis loot OF the millions, and now
for r,le first time is made public the state
ment OF that confession and other facts
about the wheat deal and the manner IN
which financial panic was ayerted.
Brander used more san Francisco money
that did NOS belong 10 him, without being
charged with theft. than any other man
who ever figured in the history OF this
state rs a Napoleon of finance.
The act for which he was indicted--that
of swearing that 523 shares of stock of the
State Investment and Insurance Company
was 81. $40 cash on hands a tritle COM
pared with his grand operations in 1857.
The losers by the collapse OF the State In
vestment and Insurance do not seem 10 be
particularly vengeful though some of
them have held on TO their stock all these
months since the institution was wound
up. in the nope that Brander would make
good his promise to interest sufficient for
eign capital to revive the corporation.
some one was interested, however, for De-
teotiye Coifey did not return the warrant
for Brander's arrest on Saturday until he
had satisfied his superiors beyond Ques-
ton that Brauder vas not within the
Jurisdiction of n state court.
The inside history Of the big wheat deal,
published here for the hrst slime, shows
that BrAnder put the Nevada bank in such
n way that It stood 70 lose 81, eco coo on
the deal. The day this state of affairs was
discovered there was only about $500 left
in the bank with which 10 commence
business next day. The late James Flood.
then the head OF the Nevada bank. could
see no way out, and decided 20 have a re-
ceiver appointed. The necessary papers
we're drawn up. when the California bank
came TO the rescue with 81. 00o, 90. Ex-
Senator Fair also had 81 .beo, 90 70 spare.
and with this the hank was enabled 10
t1de over the crisis. The wheat bought By
Brander was gradually disposed Of, and
when the bank finally closed up the deal
II vas found that Brandeg's enterprise had

nous amount Of money stuck TO Bran
