Later in the day Mr. Lawrence that, bla eluIoa of the Sergeant-at-arms Wat nM dealxnad, but. was dne to1 domestic pre-oocnptloa. and tbat, seeing by the' newspapers that bit praaenee waa desired, be bad coma voluntarily I b4 examined. Gea.i: wager Bwayne, a disabled veteran of the ielatlre of Judge Bwayna.

of tbe tTnlted Ut Supreme Court, and' law partner st ex-Judge (Dillon, one of tbe Manhattan BecelTers, waa called lee tbe first wltnesa Be teetlfied tbat be traa eel acted by Messrs. DUlon and Hopkins a count) to tbe BaceiTera Immediately on their appointment, and acted for them in tbat capacity tintU they surrendered tbe Manhattan property back to tbe company. He was. In fact, retained on JnJr IS. 1881.

tbe announcement tbat Dillon I and Hopkina were to be appointed. appeared in tbe proceeding bad on July at the oOces of Alexander Green, when the Receiver were appointed by Judge West-ibrvokji Tbe appointment of tbave geotlemea as liecelaara waa delred by Jay Gould and Cyrus yield, and MeesTa. Would, Field, and base gave tbe security required on tbe Heoetrers' booda Wltnesa was retained and employed aa such counsel from July to Not. IB. la reply to a request tbat be should state from tbe looaptlon wbat proceexllue were bad Id rerard to the ieae of Receiver' certificate of inrfetued- xa wblcb was ordered on Sept.

Gen. bwayne mad very detailed statement Tbe substance or It was tbat a large payment for rental was to fait ana witbin a few days from the Manhattan to the other two companies. Tbe leases were so drawn tbat a failure to make these payments would Work a forfeiture of the lease, lie wrote to tba Manhattan Company's officers advising I hem of tbe fact, and waa Invited to meet the board of Director. He met tbem, and a a result was authorized to apply for leave to heme tbe certificate. Tbe resolution ot tb bourd was drafted witneaa and contemplated tbe issue certificate which should be a lien tu tbe company's property.

In tbe early part of i be consideration of this matter it seemed to him tliat no one in th Manhattan Company took any Inters In It sueb as tbe seriousness of the situation apparently required. What be had in view In draftlnc the resolution was tbat the takers of tbe certificates mlabt feel tbat in taking tbem tbey would! receive a cood security and not accept a risk bi accepting tbem. Mr. Kneelaod was at that time about the man ha knew who seemed jvililnr to take any pecuniary risk or to Involve himself to any great extent to preserve tbe Man- bat tan Company. Witness told him tbat tbe would do anything tbat be of anybody else -could socgeet to preserve tbe compel v.

Mr. Knee-land intimated tbat be and bis aVienda would take atiGO.ft.fl worth of the certificate, but wanted- tbem, if possible, made a. first lien, or, as be expressed it. -put ahead ft the stock." Witness suggested tbat the only way be knew of to meet tbe case waa to make the aertlflcatei pay high rate of Interest as high. If necessary, as.

IS rer but not to exceed tbat. When the parties came Into court tbe conference aa to the nature and status of tbe certificate was mainly between i Judge Westbrook and ex-Judge imioo, and tbey both seemed to agree that i It waa improvident to make tbe Interest bleb. The view witness took or it tbat the aggregate selling value of tbe Manhattan stock was about $3,000,000 to) $4,000,000 for tbe $13,000,000 issued. If the New-fork Company succeeded In getting back the property tbe Metropolitan Company wonld have an eqsal right to the retnra of lu property, and there woujld be no asset of value Jett, aqd tbe Manhattan stock would be worthless, with nothing lert but i claim against the other two companies. He thought tbe danger 'Was great enough to warrant th people wbo owned the property In stretching out their band To save It.

and tbat tbey ought to bare tbe opportunity to do it. I Q. But no sucb opportunity was A. "So Sir. On PepCW Judge Westbrook beld Chamber to bear th application and I submitted a proposed ordeo.

Tbe petition for tbe order was for certificates wbicb should be a first lieni on tbe entire firoperty. and tbe money realized was 'to be used save the property, and. in fact, preserve tbe company Itself to tbe stockholder and bondholder. 1 was inclined to believe tbat It would be cult proper to give It precedence It tbe holders of the then existing first lien would consent to it. I said in open court tbat tbe Receivers took no part in tbe matter, but were aimnlv in attendant-.

At the same time I ooebt to state In frankness that ataJ Ahe close of tbe hearing Judge Westbrook said ton joe uiei na wouia Da glad to have any advice what to do In view of tbe Impartial position I had taken. -J. When did von first hear aton denying tbe application of tbelNew-York Com pany tor toe return or Its roadf A. The day before lb opinion was delivered. lie wrote a note me saying that be bad completed tbe opinion, and asked me to meet him at the Victoria Hotel that night, He said tbe opinion was completed, and that It was agaiustgranting the motion.

I went to tbe-hotel the night before tbe opinion was delivered, and tbe Judge read it to me from tbe manuscript, and I suggested one or two little modifications, which were made Re asked me whether be bad better give It to tbe newspapers In ew York, or if there wa any reason why be should not take It back to Kingston and bav it printed there and send proof -slips to York. I advtaed bim to take the latter course, and be did so. but tba pubiio reading; of tbe opinion was from tbe manuscript. In a room In tbe Western Union Building -A- Tee. Sir.

And as sr as tbat room being nsed I am entirely responsible for It I made the suggestion of it when we first met In my offices and found tbem too small.

Oen. Swayne said Judge Westbrook came to New-York at his request, and because it was very Inconvenient for 10 or? 12 gentlemen' to go to Kingston to meet one f'sntieman. Tbe reason why the bearings were iad In tbe room so much jtalked of i In tbe Western Union Building was becau9t it was larger than the Hacelvers' or oounsel's odices. In the same building. The room referred toi pad been nsed generally for conferences.

Ac. bv the officers of the Union Pacific, Texas 1'acitlo. Mou-. racinc, vabasn racific. and Pacific hnprove-ment Companies, controlled by Mr.

Gould, and there was a small room adjoining It into -which it waa expected that Mr. Gould would move bis office laslSommer, from No. 80 Broadway. With that idea bis name was put on tbe glass door, and occa sionally ne useu it tor eonierences witn some or officers, but," said Gen. bwayne, 1 don't think be ever spent over half an bour there in anyone day." Witness thought there could not be any Impropriety in Judge Westbrook appointing Mesera Dillon and Hopkins as Receivers.

If the belief existed that there was any connection. between Jay Goa and tbe Hacelvers somebody was grievously disappointed, for, as evidence of It, Gould, bage. and Field opposed tbe issue of vers' Tbey were ordered to be Issued, and In applying for tbem the Feefivers were flying in the faces of three-fuurtks of the stockholders snd gentlemen were controlled by their clients, and once tbe firm tnooiibt that tbelr professional relations with Mr. Gould's corporations would terminate in oop sequence of their position. Mr, Field and were very Indignant at the course tbe Receivers and Ibelx counsel took In that matter.

Frank R. 'Lawrence waa next examined! and gave a detailed and necessarily somewhat tedious account of his professional coon potion with the litigation He aaid i his first employment was aa counsel for F. Weiler In applying to the Trustees of the mortgage bonds of the New-Tork and Metropoli tan companies to taxe measures to prevent tne roads from wasting the mutgage property, in May. 1S61, and bis last employment was in tbe final proceedings of the people's Jsult against the. Manhattan Company.

The tees ignored bis application. The Attamey- tieneral commenced bis action against the Nan- bat I an Company about that time, and whpess wrote to bim asking bim to Uike measures to. protect tbe bondholders. As a result AttorneyvGc n-eral Ward called on him. and said be would ask the court to let all parties in interest be heard, and to protect them.

Several witnesses, with Gen. Ward, followed anJ tbejp advised and oUcussed the bearing of tho case, but the Attorney-General's euit lay dormant for some time, and witness, in the latter part of June, began an action In Weiler name restraining the distribution of tbe inqome of the Metropolitan Koad among its stockholders, on the ground tbat the Income was mortgaged, but tbat notwithstanding the Director bad been distributing it among the stockholders, and bad allowed taxes and interest to accumulate unpaid. His position, he thought, was friendly to tbe Metropolitan Company, as It put a stop to a eourse tbat would have been in the end adverse to the Company. The injunction obtained did not restrain tbe Manhattan Company from paying any cf its obligations whatever. -'Later on tbe Attorney-General came to witness and said he had determined to abandon the first action and base bis new action in Albany County, on the ground of insolvency alone.

This proposition' waa discussed and tbey concluded tbat it migbCbd successfully done, and was an easier and shorter way of reaching a result than by tbe first complaint. There was probably no reason why the first complaint might not bare been amendedtut It wan deemed best to go to Albany County, inasmuch as once when a motion was coming on tbe Attorney-General unexpectedly confronted -with a stay of proceedings granted by Judge Brady, which, however, soon afterward the same Judge vacated. Finally the Attorney-General asked witness to draw the necessary papers in a second suit, and fto Kingston and get an order to show causa (mva-riece iver-ship from Judge Westbrook. i Witness UicT so, snd made tbe affidavit in the and was afterward paid for tnat aervlce, but had no further connection with tbat branch of the case. Some time later tbe witness's firm was retained for tbe Metropolitan Company by Mr.

Sage, but only in tbe iittottion with Manhattan; that was toward tbe end of September. Wbea the New-York Company applaed for the return or its road be believed the application would be granted, and never thought otherwise until he read Judge Westbrook' order denying tho. motion. To grant tbat motion would have bean to deprive tbe Manhattan Company of its only nsset of value the lease of the other roads; but be saw no impropriety in acting as counsel in a proceeding tbe clear result of which would destroy tbe stock held by Innocent holders in tbe Company. Being asked as to tbe morality of It.

he said he would rather discuss questions of morality when not under oath. Witness attended the hearing on upt. 29. and' submitted and read before the court the affidavits of Jay Gould. Mr.

Sage, and Mr, Washington t. Connor declaring the belief that the Manhattan Company irretrievably Insolvent." Witness appeared there on behalf of tbe Metropolitan Company; witness also represented that company in all tbe negotiations which led to tbe agreement of dot. Zi, and Mr. Bacon and be drafted the agreement which was finally adopted. Ha could not say whether tbat agreement was "forced" by Judge Weatbrook's decision of the day before, but tbe agreement had been under discussion by counsel and by tbe Directors of the three companies at Intervals for some weeks.

Prior to tbat a treaty bad been prepared and was signed by the New-York and Manhattan Companies, but tbe Metropolitan Company rejected it, and it was cever ratified -i Mr. Robert L. Deyo was recalled, at bis own request, in order that be might explain a portion of bis previous testimony. He said that bis statement with reference to Judge Westbrook having aliown liim his opinion on the Tth of October might bava been construed that be read the opinion. He desired to ssy tbat be dtd not read lienor was Its contents communicated to bim.

Judge Westbrook merely took tbe opinion from bis desk and held it up, but not In such' a way that the witness could read it CoL John J. McCook, of the law firm of Alexander A Green, was then examined. Ue staled tbat bis firm was substituted, for tbat of e)d, Dorsbeimer A Bacon, as counsel for tbe Manhattan Company in tbe suit of tbe people of the: Mate of New-York against that company July 7, itsbl. All of tbe services rendered by bi firm td tha Manhattan Company were rendered between Jtsty 7 and tbe middle of the following The witness objected to producing bi offli-e register, but submitted an abstract taken therefrom showing lu their chronological order tbe various steps taken by bis firm in the elevated railroad lltlga-tiona Notice of tbe firm's appearance as counsel was served on the Attorney-General July I. and On tba following 13th the at Kingston on tba application for tha appointment of Reorivers took plaoe.

Tbe circumstances of tbe various meetings, adjournments, aflidaviu, Ac, were rehearsed. The witness was asked If ha knew anything about the appointment of Fred L. WestbrOok as Referee. He answered that all he knew about it was that some of the counsel asked bis firm if there were any objectloua to Mr. Westbrook acgug as Referee, and there were none.

appointment waa agreed to all around In pursuance of somebody's request; in reply to an inqniry. Mr. McCook said that be did not think it wa at Mr. Westbrook' request. With reference to hi first bearing of tba negotiations for a settlement of tba difference between the three companies, tbe witness said that he could, not erectly fix th data.

His attention was first drawn to tbe tb matter by toe appointment of committee by tb different companies. Tbe only way that he could settle tb date was by obtaining tbe djate of whatwa known a the Delmonioo conference." Iuahswer to a question by Mr. Harris. CoJ. McCook said tbat the Manhattan Company made no opposition to tbe appointment of Receiver after tb order to show cause wa served.

Nor was any objection raised by the Manhattan Company to the appointment of Judge Dillon as Receiver. Tbe latter was considered by the wltuess's clients as com-petenc bota as to ability and character. 3 Mr. Harris asked whether tbe witness had any reason to think that Judge Westbrook at any time during the litigations was disposed to favor or accommodate certain parties to the suit more than others. Mr.

McCook answered that he bad no reason whatever for thinking so. With reference to Jadge Weatbrook's coming to New-York to snTe a hearing in tba case, tb.wiiaes aaid that it was so hot and disagreeable in Kingston that many of the counsel requested him to: 'come here. The bearing was held in a large corner room, adjoining Receiver Hopkins's 'office. In the Western Toion Telegraph Building, Tbe room bore the appearance of a Director's: room. Mr.

Harris asked whether the witness had any evidence that tbe room was Jay Gould's- office, and Mr. McCook replied that be bad only see a statemen's to that effect In th newspapers. During the presence of Judge Westbrook in this City In connection with tbe elevated railway, cases the witness hsd never seen anything Improper or undignified in bis conduct Arthur F. Bowers staled tbat be was City editor of tbe New-York Iriinnt. He was atked by Mr.

btetson under wbat circumstances the statement ax-Attorney-General Ward, which appeared in the Tr-dntm of Jan. J. came to be published. He said tbat Mr. Ward called upon him at life" office on the td of January and asked him to psol'sh tb atatement which bad been prepared at bi 1 Ward dictation by a stenographer.

Mr. Bowersijldenti-fied tb printed statement In a copy of the 1 rift-sum. and It wa put In evidence. Daniel W. McWiUiams.

In ursuance of instructions from Mr. Bacon, to ask i idge Westbrook to sjgn tbe order denying tbe ap licatioo to restore the property of tbe New Yc rk Klevated Railroad. He waa instructed to tt the order signed if possible, take it to Albany, ye It properly entered in tbe County lerk's office! and procure a certified copy of It When he presented tbe document to Judge West brook, for his signature tbe Judge asked bim If the contest of ail of the parties ihad been obtained.

He replied (that all bad agreed except tbe At-tornev-GeneraL Judge Weatbrook aaid that he dkl nol want to sign the order until tbe consent if all of the parties hd been obtained. "fubseejuentlf Attorney-General Ward telegraphed to Juflge wk-sioroox mat ne was 111 and wouia leave tbe mifterof signing tbe order to the Judge's discretion. In the same dispatch Mr. Ward asked to be Informed of tbe exact nature of the order. and a few urs afterward be sent a second te'e- gram repeating his willingness to leave the mat ter ofrsiirniag it to tbe discretion of the Judge.

Tbe latter considered it during the recess of the court and then said to the witness that under tne circutasTt ances he felt at liberty to add tbe consent if tbe Attorney-General and sign tbe order, iwhiea he did. As soon as tbe document was signed Douglas telegraphed tbe fact to his it entered and hastened to Albany, where he ha I the County Clerk office on tbe SKth of October. After procuring a certified copy, be retursed to the Delavan House and found a tele- gram from dim not to odge Westbrook awaiting bim telling titer the ordentntil be had submitted it to th Attorney-General.

The managers offered Mr. Egan's representatives 400 for the hall for last evening, (t ie rent of the bail is only 12ft a night.) but the error's" rriends wanted 1.000.

CIIAJSGIXG QUARTERS ''MOVING DAT OBSERVED MUCH LK39 CNT- VERSALLY TIIAX USUAL. Moving day" yesterday was marked by fnuch less conimot.OQ In tbe streets in tbe way of tbe removal of. household effects than bas been boted fjr years past.

The custom of upsetting households on the 1st of May has steadily grown in disfavor of late years, and persons who have resolved to change their quarters have usually made arrangements to do eo before May 1. This course bas been auopted generally in order to escape the exorbitant axactions of the truckmen, who have reaped a golden harvest by forcing up their rates per tent, or core. The moving this year has been small in other respects, however, and It is safe to say riat in T5 per cent of a'l the removals noticed la the ity the change was made because tenants were indihposed to pay an advance in rent which tney deemed extreme and iinjustlfiable. Household effects were removed in many cases last week. Which, in some measure, accounted for tee de-Crease in the number of furniture-laden trucks keen in the various thorougnfares yesterday.

In the business quarters of the City ou Broadway, and pn Third, Sixth, and Eighth avenues the spectacle pf stock and fixtures being carted off to other localities was an exception. It was evident that ilie storekeepers had taken into consideration the (troubie and expense of su-b disturbance of their affairs, and had concluded that tbey more thati Counterbalanced an increase in rent. Thisincreaso as therefore paid, excepting where tho demand Jwas exorbitant. In the dwelling quarter between Fourteenth-Btrtet and the Park very few householders Were seen moving their efiects. The removals appeared to be chiefly in the streets west bf Sixth-avenue and east of Fourth-avenue, and were much less numerous than on tbe same day last year.

The moving in Hurlem was" also small in comparison with former years. The same state of siflMrs was noticeable in respect to removal? from jtbis City to Brooklyn and Jersey City. The ferry-hhi at the P.rooklyn ferries reported tbat Ay bad inever seen so few trucks laden with hoAehold jgoods pass over ou the boUts as yesterday. The number was very mucn than In At tho flersey City ferries a similar, report was obtained. fTbe ferrymen at ortiandt-street said there jeeemed to be wore people removing to New-Y'ork itban there were goxg over to Jersey.

The boats carried heavily laden trucks from the Jersey tioe up to a late hour an unday night There iwere not half as many people taking their boase-jhold goods from New-York across th's ferry as were noted last year. In short the indications seemed to be that most residents had resolved to jforetco this year the numerous miseries of movinir iday and to remain where they were whenever it iwas possible to do so. In some localities trucks were even found idle, their drivers dangling their feet in de--pa'rOf getting customers, and wearing a look of great disgust upon tbeir faces at the fai.ure of migratory natrons to put in an appearance, i IMPROVEMENTS fX A HOSPITAL.
