Marshal TOOKER caused the proprietor of the premises # 143 Liberty st,
who, it is alleged, swindled Esck O. CORSON out of $100 by the envelope
game, to refund the amount, whereupon the defendant was discharged.


The case of COPELAND, VIELTMAN, & LEITH, charged with defrauding the Fourth
NATIONAL BANK, came up before Commissioner SHIELDS yesterday. Separate
examinations were granted to COPELAND and LEITH. Counsel for both COPELAND
and LEITH said they would not contest the Commissioner's findings, if on
VIELTMAN'S examination, he found that VIELTMAN had made the false entries
charged, they merely contending and producing evidence to show that their
clients did not aid and abet in the alleged crime. VIELTMAN'S examination
was set down for 2 P. M. Friday and LEITH and COPELAND for 2 P.M. on
Tuesday next.
