INGERSOLL, GARVEY, AND WOODWARD—RUMORS CONCERNING THE THREE FUGITIVES, The regular morning inquiries at the City Hail, the Bb rid's oftice, aud the Department of Public Works, arc: Anything about Ingersoll 1” ‘Where's Garvey now i" or, «Wonder if Woodward's coming back 1” and the counter greetings are as varied as Demo eratie fuith in Democratic honesty will admit. The general opinion yesterday, as expressed in the political strongholds mentioned, was that if Woodward and Garvey Were 88 re neible of their own safety as they were generally supposed to be, they would not come back at all Mr. Ingersoll's return is hopefully joked for by thogc who, during his absence, have spoken go warmly of his integrity. In support of the opinion of this latter class is the fact that, yesterday, Mr. Ingersoll, ar. called on Sheriff Brennan and assured him that his son would return whenever his bondsmen should be ready to secure his release immediately after his arrest. Mr. Ingersoll, jr., was in Portland, Me., yesterday, ac cording to advices received by Sherif Brennan. Inger sll’s friends were actively engaged during the day in arranging for his bail bond. Woodward's retarn is considered very improbable gven under the most favorable circumstances, but itis pelieved that he is not far away. Sheriff iirennan sayx that as lung as these people remain out of the State they are secure «8 ‘ar as he is concerned, thie suit being a civil one, a fact which debars him from making arrests of the defendants anywliere but in his own jurisdiction. A DOUBTFUL STORY. The following was received at Tne TRIBUNE effice last evening: NORWALK. Coun, Oct, 81.—Woodward is reported by the Cluet of Police at South Norwdik, to Liuve been icre last night, and to have goue W New-York ou the easly mornivg train. Samuel J. Tilden, Wheeler H. Peckham, and the other counsel cugupcd in the case Lad not, at a lute hour in the evening, heard of Woodward's arrival in this city, their first information being reecived from a TRIBUNE reporter, who cal'ed to show them the above dispatch, Mr. Peck ham regarded Woodward's arrest as very doubtful last evening, but he would make a determined eftort to cape jure him to-day if the report proved true, TWEED'S POUGHKEEPSIE MORTGAGE. Wm. M. Tweed holds a mortgage of £20,000 spon property owned by George Morgan, in Poughkeep pe. The mortgage was drawn up in April last, and re sorded Sept. 12, 1871. Mr. Morgan was a member of the state Senate last Winter. On Monday he appeared at the Couuty Clerk's office to ascertain if the mortgage sad been assigned, aud found that it had not. etm THF RING LI'MBERMAN. AOW G. L. SCHUYLER MADE LARGE PROFITS ON CITY ORDERS AND ENABLED OTHER> TO ROB THE TREASURY. Garret L. Schuyler, a lumber merchant, do ing Lusincss at the foot of East Thirty-fifth-st., was charged, in the earlier Ring exposures, with having been the Ring contractor for lumber, and a participant in the spoliation of the City Treasury. It was stated that awong the vouchers surreptitiously obtained from the Controller's office by County Auditor James Watson, were vouchers to the amount of $427,087 27, bearing the name of Garret L. Schuyler. Upon the publication of \his fact, Mr. Schuyler sent a card to THE TRIBUNE, stat ing that on referring to his books he found that the first of such payments by the city was wade in January, 1863, from which time to June 22, 1870, be only received $48, 110 ¢4. He concluded by stating that he would cheerfully show any persons authorized to make the investigation that be gave full value for the money received. Acting upon this hint the counsel for the Committee of Reve uty appiicd to him for information, but to their sur prise he declined to give any assistance, and referred shen to his lawyer, who was equally reticent. Mr. Schuyler was unwilling to give a TRIBUNE reporter uy information, insivuating that “it was nouc of Lis pusiness.” It hus been ascertained, however, that if Le 1id not receive $427,007 27, it was upon his vouchers that {his amound was taken from the Treasury. He beguy to frruish lumber indirectly to the city in 1864, through the wedium of John Davidson, formerly a boss carpenter and builder, bat now President of the Manufacturers and Builders’ Bauk in Third-ave. David yon repaired and Yhuilt piers and did other work, always ontenting Limself, as is alleged, with a bandsome profit and never descending to extortion. In 1868 jchuyler ohiained the city orders for lumber, wd after filling them prescnted Lis first bill for an vn warrantabie a mount. The Ring officials, quick to detect fhe extortion, and to avail themselves of it, insisted Rat the amount ghould be raised to satiefy their ra pacity. Schuslerat first decliued to do it, aud in a con rersation with a relative, said—* Those Ring fellows are yutrageons,” But having once made out an improper sill and placed hlm=ef in the power of the Ring he could not withdraw, for if he had done this they would have Rireatenel to expose him. He could mot rerify his biil by oath, nor substitute v Just for the unjust account, as he would bave furnisbed evidence in his own handwriting of his attempt to defraud the city, To get his money and save umeelf, be was obliged to comply with their demands. His bills enabled others to draw money from the treas wry, and he was haudsomely paid for his labor and mate rials. It is eaid that Jacob L. Miller, a brother-in-law, of Wo. 180 East Thirtieth-st., has the documentary evidence of Behuyler's transactions. Schuyler is reputed to be worth several hundred thousand dollars, and lives in East Sixtieth-st, MAYOR HALL AND THE GRAND JURY. WHAT A GRAND JUROR BAYS OF THE HALL CASE. WHAT A GRAND JUROR SAYS OF THE HALL CASE. A member of the Grand Jury which was discharged yesterday, in epeaking of the failure to indict Mayor Hall, says that the District-Attorney appeared before the Jury and denied the assertion that he had tailed to subpena the witnesses whose names were given him by the Committee of Beventy. He said that only two of these witnesses were not brought, and the failure to present these witnesses was because they could not be found. Of the testimony adduced at the examination, thi« gentleman says that the weakest of all Matewents was that wade by Mr. George Jones. He was asked what be knew of Mayor Hall’s dishonesty and he said Nothing;” he did not know that Mayor Hall ever extracted a dollar from the City Treas pry, nor would he say that he knew Mayor Hall to be dishonest. He was then asked if he knew anything at all against Mayor Iall’s character, and his reply was the same as before, he knew “nothing.” He was requested w divulge the name of kis informaut in the matter of the charges published by Bim against Mayor Hall, but he refused, saying that such @aclosure would be a revelation of transactions in the sanctum of The Times. Among the other witnesses ex amined were Thowas A. Ledwith, Jackson 8. Schultz, Audrew H. Green, and ex-Deputy Controller Storrs, but all the testimony wa weak, and pot of the character which tle Jury expected would be set before them. S— A GARVEY RTILI, MISRING. ee 4he rumor published yesterday afternoon of tbe reappearance of Garvey was f.unded upon the as 8ertion of two Supreme Court officers. Several Deputy Bheriffs, end others likely to know if be had returned, denied the report. It was said by certain Democrats that Garvey and In £7801 will not be arrested until the amount of bail to be 4etuanded shall be fixed. This may mean that Tweed ©8a sad will produce them as soon as be ascertains that se bail will not be so excessive as to render It unobtain a TAMMANY'S RERVANTS.

About 30 of the inspectors of pavements and Sewers called at the Controller's office, yesterdsy, and @euanded to see Mr, Green. As he comld not receive tern 846 000m as they wished, they grew somewhat tur Bulent and indulged in mdeh loud and threatening talk, hich was stopped by the eppesrance of few poilee 008.

The cause of the wrongs of which you complain antidates the time of my coming into office, and I am do jug all Ican for you. In due time you will all get your rights. a Another Tnepector—Mr. Green, I am in an equally bad x. Mr. Groen—Are you a professional paver or sewer maker Ingpector—No, Bir, I am not, and, in order to inspect pavements it is not necessary to be a professional paver, Mr. Green—What is your business Ingpector—1 have none.
