TIM COOKE SCANDAL
The Prisoner Taken to the Tombs
and Discharged—Why No Com
plaint was Pressed Against Him
—His Removal to an Insane Aey

fair, &c. .
Wroto N. Y. World, Jon. .1.3 •
The disappearance, return, and subs°.
quent conduct of the Rev. Horace Cooke
continued to be yesterday the principal
topic of conversation throughout the city.
Various opinions were expressed in re
gard to the affair which has brought
,so
'much discredit on kis fame, and many
persons declared their belief that the man
Is either positively insane or In a mental
condition closely bordering on insanity.
Cooke remained all Wednesday night at
the Beekman street atation•hodse, and
was yesterday morning taken from that
place to the tombs. •
. 'AT THE TOMBS.
There h 5 wee placed in the "dock,'
with about forty prisoners, male and fe-
I Male.: Ho WAS not; however, allowed to
remain long in this disgusting and hu
miliating place, ono of the clerks of the
court ordering an officer to give him a
seat on one' of the outside benches.
Cooke looked wildly:about for a moment,
and then sat for some time with his head
bowed and covered with his hands. He
did not seem to have recovered entirely
from the nervous excitement of the pre
vious night, but was muck more quiet in
his demeanor and, spoke but little, his
eyes, however, retaining their wild, fe
verish look.
HE TS vane RETICENT.
William Barrett, one of rho Tombs
squad, Who is a member of the Norfolk
street Methodist Church, approached
Cooke and questioned him as to whether
his family were pleased at his return, and
as to where he bad ken with Miss John.
son. Cooke replied brnfly that he was
greeted kindly by the members f his
family on
-returning, but declined to state
where he bed been with Mies Johnson,
saying that it was only a short distance
from the city. 'The said that the ghl re.
turned to her home as pure and virtuous
m when he took her away.. He said that
he went home about 8 o'clock on Wed
nesday evening, and that he at once
started for The World office.
COON IS DISCHARGED.
When Justice Cox took his seat on the
bench, Cook was brought up to the rail
ing, and, no one appesrieg to make a
complaint, was discharged. The Justice
said to him: "Mr. Cook, you have been I
making yourself unenvbly notorious
lately, but aa there is n iao
complainant
here I have no option but to dismiss the
complaint. You are discharged, sir."
Cook seemed to feel greatly pleased at
his release, and with" a bow and "thank
you" to the Justice, at once left the court
room in company with several friends.
THE LAST SEEN OF COOK YESTERDAY.
One of these accompanied him to
Broadway, where both visited the restau
rant under the Merchants' Union Express
office, at the cortter of Franklin street,
and partook of some breakfast. Their
next move was to engage a carriage, Into
which they stepped,* giving the driver
directions to take them . somewhere, up
town. This was the last seen of Cooke
yesterday. He did' not return to his
!ms° in Seventh street, and at a late
hour last night neither Mrs. Cooke nor
any other intimate acquaintance had
either awn or beard of him.
Tagus TQ ea LISSAEZ AILYLUAL
The reason why no appearance
against Cooke was made on his ar
raignment at the Tombs, was that his
friends had given assurance on Wednes
day evening that they would take charge
of him. They expressed themselves ex
ceedingly gratified at:his arrest, and felt
relieved of much anxiety when they
found that he was placed where he could
do neitherkhnself nor any one else bodily
injury. It is believed that his friends, in
fulfillment of their assurance of Wednes.
day night, have placed Cooke in =insane
asylum; in fact it was so reported last
evening, and the 'report was credited by
many of the acquaintances of the man.
wn:nns WAS COOKE DURING HIS ABSENCE?
Where Cook took MitieJohnson the day
they disappeared has not been ascertain.
ed, both Cook and the Johnson family
being very reticent upon the subject. I
Borne say he went to Pniladelphia, while'
others assert that he was all the time in
Jersey City. At all events he turned up
again at the Everett Haase on Wedges-'
day afternoon about three o'clock, where
he entered, aqd stated that be wished
rooms for himeelf and slater,and registered
the names of Frederick Campbell and
Min Mary Campbell, Harrisburg, Penn.
HE DISPLAYS NO NERVOUSNESS.

were assigned to separate rooms; but
Cooke did not remain more than an hour
it the hotel before he started out and
walked rapidly down Fourth avenue,
probably on Ids way home, as he appeared
In Seventh street at about that hour. He
did not return to the Everetthouse at all,
and In two or three hours Mr. Johnson
came and took the young lady away,
CRAVING THE PARSONAGE.
The Onkel* of the Seventh Street
Church having discharged Cooke from
the pastorship, Mrs. Cooke was engaged
busily all day yesterday In making preps..
rations to leave the parsonage. The hall
was filled with furniture; carpets were
torn np, and three or four young men
were engaged In packing tip, preparatory
to the mon. It la stated to be the listen-

porary fit of Insanity, if math should be
the cue. • -
Dineen/EOM Or URNTAL ngnartomenicr.
For some time previous to the abduc.
lion of Miss Johnson, Mrs. Cook had re
marked the restless, uneasy, and singu
lar conduct of her husband, his nervous.
ness, or mental aberration, appearing to
increase In the evening. While-sitting
quietly talking with Mrs. Cook he would
suddenly jump up and rush out the door
into the street, only to return and repeat
the mime thing, perhaps eight or ten times
In the course of a single evening. A ma•
jthitj of Cook's old friends state they
have no doubt as to his insanity, and hla
conduct In this melancholy affair would
attenlyseeni to, indicate some distr.
-, mrut of his mental faculties.
MOUSE TO al;.1. BOX/MOOT.
It erpPeare that Cooke informed his
wife of the step ho was about to take.
At the same time he said he could not
explain why he was going to leave. His
family received no intelligence of Ms.
movements until his sudden and me g.
meted return home on Wednesday even-
Ws behavior was exoeedingly
lent, and was more like that of a crazy
than • sane person. According to a
statement made by the reporter of as
evening paper, he told his wife-that ho
was a ruined man ; that ho had been
abandoned by his friends, and that milt.
ing remained far hien to do but to kill

ME TIED IN TES MUNCIE LAST NIGHT.
- - •
A portion of the congregation met in
the basement of the church last night.
Nearly all the elders and trustees were
present.' The session was epened with
prayer at 7:30 , o'clock, alter which
an animated conversation on the
on the abduction of Miss Johnston
by Cook, took place. Although the pro.
crxdincs were strictly private, enough
leaked out to show that the clerical
Lothario balsovered his connection with
the congregation by his act. It was a
remarkable fact that one lady stood up
after the exercises and endeavored to de-
fend him from the imputations cast upon
his character while he was at Mamaroneck.
COOKS 118110VKL. PI/OM THE PASTOBATIL
At the close of the meeting, our report•
er ascertained from one of the prominent
members of the congregation that the
trustees held a special session on Monday
night, at which they formally. expelled
Cooke from the church. Charges were
presented against him, based on the facts
which have been stated in The World.
His absence, and that of Miss Johnson,
led the officers to take eurnmary, action
in the matter. The case is also to be
presented to tho next Methodist Annual
Conference for its action.
REMOVAL PROM TER PARSONAGE.
OUP reporter was also Informed by an'
elder that Cook had left the parsonage
next the church, and is now with a Mend
up town. His wife is said to remain In
the parsonage, but soma persons assert
that-she followed her husband. Inquiry
at the house last evening elicited the an•
ewer: "Mr. and Mrs. Cook are not at
home."
TKE PULPIT TO BE PILLED NEXT EI:MOAT.
The trustees are . now engaged In the
difficult task of selecting a successor to
Cook, but It may be some weeks before
they succeed. In the meantime, the ser
vices will be conducted by some other
mlnlster.
COOKE'II SZPLASATIOA 01, UlB ISTATO

To a reporter of the Times, who visited
Cooke during his confinement at the
Beekman street elation house, Cooke
made the following statement:
When I was eighteen years old I was
engaged to be married to a girl about my
own age. I loved her derotedly, and had
every reason to to =Dere that my af

had passed betwen na. Her Image faded
from my mind, and when about twenty
years old I married my present wife.
She wee and always has been the bat of
women, and we never quarrelled during
our long married life. Before entering
the ministry I was an actor; and for
siz months was on the stage of the Old
Bowery Theatre. Up to the time of coat.

one, and as pure as befitted a Christian
man and a minister of the Gospel I was
