July, 187B. An Unexpected Turn in the Crent Counterfeiting Case The Principal Pleads Cluilty to Two Indictments for Counterfeiting, and in Allowed to do on His Own Recognizance. Late yestorday afternoon William H. Brock way, who was arrested iu connection with threo others upon a charge of counterfeiting $101) National bank notes and $1,000 (i por cent Government bonds, was brought before Judge Benedict, in the United States Court iu this city, and arraigned upon two indictments, one for forging tho $100 National bank note and the other for forging the $1,000 bond. Brookway guilty to both Indictments, and then, with the consent of United States District At torney Tenney, and of Mr.

Driimmond, of tho Secret sorvlco Bureau, under whose direction the caBe was worked up, tho Court allowed Brookway to go on his own rsoognizanoe, and he ia now at liberty. The reason for thie course is not announced as yet, but District Attorney Tenney says that it is done with the approval of the Department at Washington, and of the Secret Service Division, It is understood that Brockway has made or will make some sort of restitution to the Government, nut of what kind or nature is not yet made public. That some strong reason exists for this action, in lotting at liberty a man who waa clearly guilty, and who is known to bo ono of tha most expert counterfeiters in tha country, is Tory apparent. It will be remembered that during the month of October a man named Doyle was arrested in Chicago by secret service dotootiTes, who had followed hi)a from New York. It was supposed that Doyla's orrand was to "shore the queer," or in other words to put on tho market the $100 national bank notes.

When arrested Doyle had in his possession a valiso. The officers opened this valise. expeoting to find tho counterfeit $100 notes, but to their astonishment they found counterfeit United States 6 per cent, bonds to the amount of $201,000. This was the first intimation that had been received that suoh a counterfeit waa in existence. Meanwhile Brockway, an alleged confederate, who was supposed to be the printer of tho bonds, aud the engraver, one Smythe, were arrested in Brooklyn.

Smythe turned State's evidonce. The printer was bailod as there appeared to be no case agatnst him, and now Brookway is allowed to go, but the roasoua are naid to be potent and to effect tho interests of the Government to a very material degree. Tho whole story is promised in duo time. ALLEGED DIGAMY AND ROBRERY. The Accusation Preferred by a Man Against His Wife and a male Friend.

Result of the Suspicions of a Jealous Husband. A tedious examination ic a caBe of alleged bigamy and robbery, began yesterday beforo Justice Kiehl, terminated to day iu tbo discomfiture of the complaint, for the time being at loast. Morilz Wilden bergor caused tho arrest of his wifo, Augusta, alleging in his complaint that ho had cause to believe she had contracted a bigamous relation with Charles Schmidt. He also had Schmidt arrested for a larceny of $185 in money and some household effects. The oom plaiut is a saloon keoper in Varot street.

In the daytime tha bualneaa was run by his wife, and Schmidt waa a froquont visitor in the absence of her hUBband. Wlldonberger loft his home for his place of employment one day in the lattor part of July last, and upon his return In ths evening found his place closed and evidences of his wifo's flight iu tho absonco of furniture and boddlng. Wildeubcrger very soon found out, too, that his Btore of money, which had been kept iu a bureau drawer, had also disappeared. Tho amount was about $185. From the neighbors ho learned that hia wife, with the aid of Charles Schmidt, had takon awoy his property in a wagou, but where to or in what particular direction he could not ascertain.

It was not until late last month that Wildenberger was enabled to get UPON THE TRACK OF THE FUGITIVES, and thon only by accident. About a week preceding election day ho happened to attend a political meeting iu his neighborhood, where ho saw hiH wife and Schmidt as they passed nloDg tho street arm in arm. Wildou borgor followed tho pair at a safe distance until he Baw them outer a house on Bushwick avenue. He waited more than four hours to learn whether Schmidt would loavo tho premises and upon seeing him do so, tracked liim to a Greenpoiut beor saloon. Two days later Wildenberger called to see bis wife, with a result the re vorso of satisfactory, for he failed to got back any of hia cash or other proporty.

Ilia next move was to cause the arrest of his wifo aud Schmidt upon tho charges already stated. The prosecution of the charge of bigamy failed totally, for tho roason that Wildonberger had nothiug of a spooific character iu tho way ot evidence to substautiato it. It was BASED UPON SUSPICION ONLY, consequently it could not be prossed to a successful issue. In tho examination of the charge of larceny against Schmidt tha defonso was that the wife of complainant had" taken the money, which was testified to by tho woman. Further, it was ehown that Schmidt lived at Girooupoint aud simply called occasionally to boo Mrs.

Wildonberger at her rooms iu the Bushwick avenue house. Tho woman's excuse for leaving her husband as described, was that ha had ill treated her because of hia unfounded jealousy of Schmidt and other men visiting the saloon while ho was absent. Iter request that ho Bhould quit his work and stay at home and relieve her from attonding to tito saloon, ho had refused to accede to, she said. Thon she decided to take her share of the money and household effects and live by herself. Since tho separation, the woman said, she had earnod a living ns a seamstress, as she was prepaud ti prove by her coteuanta.

THE GREAT WORK AT HELL GATE. Mining flood Rock. Four Acrea Tunneled. TheVork of mining Flood Rock iu Hell Gate progresses slowly. One hundred and seventy men are employed on the" work.

It la thought that the rock will be ready for the great blast in 1881). Four acres of the rock have been undermined. Extending across tho river there are twenty two headings, and at right angles to these are thirteen cross headings, which have not reached their limit. They average seven feet in height, ten feet In width and are twenty feet apart. Near the main shaft they are larger.

The headings will not be enlarged until each has been oarried to its full length. Then the chambors will be widened and heightened until the excavation resembles a great "cave, the roof being supported by rocky pillars drilled out of what now form the sides of tho Leadings. The thickness of tha roof rock will be about ten feet. It 1b now from Qfteen to thirty feet in thickness. The tunneling ia tedious work, the rook of which the reef ia composed being very hard.

Tho beet progress that can be made is six hundred feet a month, representing an excavation of about fifteen hundrod cubic yards. Occasionally a seam is struck in blasting, and when the leakage is bad tho men work around tho leak. During thB last year fiftj fr.ur thousand cubic yards of rock wore removed, forty tlireo thousand blasts rnado and fifty eight thousand drills sharpened. Two hundred bluats were made each uight.

The Payment of Salaries to Romoved Officials Mayor Howell to Ask for a Repeal of that Provision Approprlatliiff One of the Docks of the City Justice Sem ler's Successor, Etc. An odious feature of tho Single Hettd bill is the provision relating to the payment of the officials retired under that law of their salaries until tho expiration of tho periods for which they were respectively appointed. AVithout this provision, tho bill could not have been passed, bo great was the influouco at Albany in behalf of tho officials to bo affected. Mayor Howell ib determined to eeonre a repeal of the portion of tho act In question, if possible, by the next Legislature.

He considers it simply an outrage that the city should pay a set of men with no equivalent in ths way of services. While the terms of the ex Commiesionera will expere in May, June and July next, those of eome of tho Assessors will not terminato for a couple of years, and during the meantime they will draw their $3,000 a year each. The suggestion has also been mad that the bill be furthor amended try reducing the number of ofllcials, for Instance, by placing the Police and Exoiso departments and the Fire and Buildings Department each under one head. Self aupportiug citlzons are saying that there ought to be some measurers takon to cut down the exponsoa of Honest John's City Works Department, which are almost as large as were tho ex ponecs under the old regime, whilo the work haB very materially lessened. As has been said, Honest John Is maintaining too extensive a band of politicians, and too i expensive a one, it may properly bo added.

ENGINEER DE MEBRITT's DISCOVERY. Assistant Engineer A. C. DoMerritt, of tho Department of City Works, yesterday aftornoon, made a discovery. He accidentally ascertained that since Saturday last some parties had widened the pior at the foot of North Seventh street, thua cutting off tho city from the use of one Bide of the structure.

It is not Mr. De Merritt'n business to inspect the docks of tho city. That is tho duty of inspeotore of the Controller's Department, who collect wharfage and who are Bupposod to visit tha docks of tha city ones a day. That auoh a pioce of work should have beon done without tho knowledge of the authorities is singular, to say the least. Mr.

DoMorritt at once proceeded to tho pier aud found that it had beon widened on the southerly aide 18 feet, tho work extending baek tho entire length of the original pior, 110 feet to the bulkhead. Mr, De Morritt was uuablu to ascertain the parties who did the work. This morning lid reported tho rnattor to the Corporation Counsel, who instructed tho Controller to immediately demand wharfago for all vossols which should como to the pier.

Presidency is Concerned Supervisor Anderson to lie Recognized as the Temporary Chairman for the Coming Year Seeking for Harmony.

Thirteen of the Democrats who will occupy seats in tho Supervisors' ohambor next year, met at the Court House last night and discussed for an hour the neeesslty for, and the most promising means of, restoring harmony among those who belong to tho dominant party in the Board. There was little to InveBt their deliberations with any particular interest. In previous years the organization of the Board haB depended on their conclusions but this matter was settled for 1881 in January last, while the patronage to be disposed of is now so inBignihosnt that no one thought it worth a reference last night When Supervisor Lake rapped for order thero were in attendance Messrs. Gallagher, Cullen, Toohlll, Murphy, Bennett, Cullinan, Eabcock, Oreaney, Fitzgerald, Ferguson, Colyer and Williamson. The call has been Issued by Supervisor Lake, and ha therefore temporarily assumed ths functions of presiding officer.

In a neat and appropriate little Bueech he assured those nrnsnnt that in ittxiullnir tho moetlnff those Dresent in no miiim nf tha wnrrf nom. mltted themselves as to their future action. They had met, ho submitted, merely for the purpose of induolng harmony among the Democratic members, and if, with nineteen Democrats in the Board, they could not Bhape its legislation, then ha did not think they deserved to do so. As to the question of tho pro tern presidency, there had beon a disposition to regard it aa being still unsettled, so far as 1881 was ooncorned. In that connection he desired to sav slmnlv that ha took no such view of the matter.

He proposed personally to abide by the law and to do nothing which would justify tho inl'orenco that he did not intend to BECOONIZB BUPEItVISOn ANDEItSON si their temporary presiding oflleer for tha coming year. Thoso woll timed remarks found an immediato eoho of approval In tho minds of thoao present, aud the Supervisor was chosen as permanent presiding olftcer, uporvlsor Murphy being elected aecrotory. Supervisor Fitzgerald indorsed what the Chair had said regarding Mr. Anderson's ulectlon and attendert to the defection of some of the Democratic members of last year. He trusted steps would be taken to insure harmony for the year to como.

Supervisor Cullinan was of the opinion that a committee of three should be appointed to wait upon Mr. Anderaon and to Buggest that the Democratic members receivo tho consideration to which their numbers entitled them so far as the composition of committees was concerned. Suporvisor Willlamsou oxprossed tho view that such a aourse was scarcely dignified. If Mr. Anderaon was a Democrat he would doubtless give all due recognition to his party colleagues if he was not, then the efforts of a committee would certainly be anything but productive of the result desired.

He (Sup. Williamson) bad been regarded as a "kiokor," but he was at any rate a Demoorat and would unite in any movement eal oulatod to subserve the trne interests or the Democratic party. Supervisor Murphy agreed with the gentleman from Flatbueb, that it would hardly bo judicious to approaoh Mr, Anderson in the measure suggosted. If that gentleman was a Democrat, he would, without urging, recognize Democratic olaims; if he was not it would do no good to send a committee to him. Sup.

Fitzgerald was also opposed to euoh a oourse. He for one would certainly never consent to asking any favors of that character. Thero was no manliness in such methodB, and ho would be no party to any attempt at coaxing a presiding officer into doing bis duty. Super visor aiurpny uaa auotner reason tor opposing tuo appointment of a committee. He had become impressed witu tue luca mat Mr.

Andorson bad ALBEADY MADE UP HIS MIND upou tho subject, for a Itepublloan member had told blin that ho was euro of tho committee chairmanship which he already held, aud that he knew of another itepuoncan wno was equally common! ot retain ing in 1831 his placo at the head of a commit too of which he was now chairman. So far ho (Sup. Murphy) was concerned, it was a matter of not tbo slightest moment to lum what committees no was placed upou. The fewer he was connected wit tue Bettor he should lie pleased. The Laiii.k, however, had talked of what tho reformers in tho Boaid had done, but tho roforms.

it must bo remembered, ha been accomplished through the acquiescence of a Dem ocratic majority. He thought that tho Democrats should shape tho action of the Hoard next year aud secure wbatevor credit was to be gained for a propor management oi tno county anairs. ino uiea or appointing a coniniittoo to wait upon Supervisor Ander son was dropped and Supervisor Gallagher suggested that another meeting be held to gi ve the absent Democrats an opportunity to attend. Sevoral of them, he thought might have been proveuted from presenting themselves Dy me moicmeiicy oi tno woatner or uy prior engage ments. Some discussion aa to the advisability of having a committee wait upon the absent members eusued suporvisor eiect liabcock suggesting that personal in torviews might go a long way iu securing tho objeo aimed at.

Supervisor Williamson had tho same objec tion to this courso as he had to that proposed with reference to Mr, AnderBou. There was neither dignity nor manliness in catering to any one, suporvisor ijert guson had no fault to find with tho courso affairs had takon. Ho was glad they had mado up their minds to recognize Mr. Anderson as tliolr presiding 'officer for the coining year, and also that no attempt was to bo made to influence his action in any way. That gentleman certainly knew as well as they could tell hiin, of what was due the dominant party in the Board.

The member from the F'iftoenth (Sup. Cullinan), who had made a motion looking to the appointment of a couunltteo to wait upon tho absentees, withdrew it aud a motion to adjourn, subject to the call ol tho cnair, was adopted.

he H. to at to On of St. the tho lis Burning of a Boarding House in New York. Ouo Mau Killed A Mother Throws her Child Out of a Window and Jumps After It Both Saved. At o'clock this morning fire broke out in the braes finishing shop kept by J.

W. S. tho first floor of the two story and attic briok house, No. 15 Grand streot, New York. The half of tho floor is a printing office, owned by John O'Donnell, In the basement a dining saloon is kept by Wilson ii Thompson, and on tho second floor and attic Daniel Davis and his wife have a boarding house.

The outbreak was so sudden and unexpected, and the emoke found its way up into the honso with such rapidity that thoso on the upper floors could not find their way out or dared not face tho hot smoke rolling up tha Btairs. Tho firo department got to work quickly and put out the flames before long, but the terror of the occupants of ths upper Btoriea was unrestrained for a while until the police came to the rescue. Mary Hawkes, one of tho boarders, thinking that she saw certain death before her If she remained, threw her nino years old child out of the window aud herself sprang after it from the second story. The child was OAUOHT IN THB DESCENT by ono of the firemen and was not hurt at all and almost by a miracle the woman escaped serious injury a Blight cut of tho hand wsb all that was apparent. Dr.

Franklin Smilh, of No. 188 Grand street, was called, and looked after her comfort, and the excite ment gradually Bubsldod. The fire had been put out and tho police and firemen were going through tho houBe to ascertain the extent of the damage, when iu a hall room on the second floor they came upon a young man apparently asleep in his bod. They Bhook but could not rouse blm, and the truth became apparent. He had boen overcome by the smoke and was uncon scious.

As quiokly as noaslblo. he waa carried into a front room and Dr. Smith turned his attontlon from tho woman to him. Restoratives were applied and artificial rcsporatton resorted to but in vain. Tho man did not rogain conaciouBness and in less than half au hour expired.

He was a conductor on the Long Island Railroad and had como on a visit for a few days to his aunt, who kept the boarding house. James llonry DeWitt was his name, and ho was 27 years old. Aeleep when the fire began, he had beon overpow ered by tho emoke before he could realize his peril and thus perished. The fire had done but little damage. Its origin was sought in vain.

The brass finishing shop was damaged to the oxtent of $250, and the building, the owner of which the police failed to find, $300. Tha rest of the building' was deluged with water. Tho coroner waa called to take ohargo of tho inquest on young DeWitt. THE PISTOL. A Resident of Brevoort Place Sills Himself.

What Led to the Suicide of Mr. Bernard J. Beck A Cnso of the Most Melancholy Nature. A suicide of the most melancholy kind occurred at half past seven o'clock this morning, at No. HI Breevort placo.

The house is a throe story brown stone front, and is near Bedford avenue, tho Btreet being but one block in iongth, and ruuuiug from Franklin avenuo to Bedford, Tho victim waB Mr. Bernard J. Bock, aged 47, the head of the household, and a retired stationary dealer, whose former place of business waB at No. 150 William street, New York. At the hour namod, while tho family were at breakfast, thoy were startled by a roport of a pistol in Mr.

Beck's room, which is on the rear of the third story. On hastening to the spot, it was found that he had shot himself in tho groin, the bullot being small, and having beon discharged from one of five chambers of a pistol that was bHU emoking on tbo floor. Mr. Beok had evidently committed the rash act soon aftor leaving bis bed, for his toilet was by no moans complete, and tho artioles ou hiB dressing stand had not been touched. Ho fell to tho floor immediately after THE SHOT WAS FIRED, aud although not dead whon his wifo reaobed his side it was ovidont that he had not long to live.

He wna groaning in the most piteous way and unable to speak intelligibly. Medical aid was promptly summoned, and Dr. Wild, who livos in the vicinity, answered tho call. But Mr. Beck was dead when ho arrived.

No blood bad flowed from the wouud, but the clothing near where the ball had entered waa badly singed. Under the circumstances, nothing could be done except to await tho arrival of the coroner. The body was not removed from its place, but a white sheet was spread over it. The motive which led to the suicide is plain. Although surrounded by a happy family and possessed of everything that would tend to make his homo com fortable, Mr.

Beck was given to melancholy. Occasionally, however, his malady would change, and he would become most violent in disposition. Affairs progressed so far that his relatives, acting under inodical advice, were forced to the conclusion that he was slightly deranged and his conduct fully warranted the opinion. He was given to driuk and had been an inmate of the Inebriates' Homo. Yet at timos he was aa kind aud fatherly as it was possible to be, and for this reason his relatives hesitated to place any check upon him.

Yesterday and the day before nothing strange was noticed iu hia bearing, and hie wife and children began to think that hia condition was improving for tho hotter. Mr. Book looked older than he really was was PALS AND EMACIATED in face, and of medium size. It is not suspected that he waa stall troubled by financial matters, or that eimi ar considerations had any influence on his mind. He was known to most of the neighbors.

lie leaves a wifo a daughter about 16 years of age, and a bou a little younger. The family aro plunged into the most intense grief over the unfortunate occurrence, and have tho most sincere sympathy ol their friends. This morning a representative from the coroner's offico called at the house and viewed the remains, and this aftornoon Dr. SimmB began his official inquiry. Mr.

Beck had nover littered a word that wuild indicate that he contemplated suicide, and the blow to tho family beiug the more surprising is, therefore, tho more sorrowful. MOSEY MARKET.
