Despatch 10 The Boening Telegraph
New York, Oct 25.-At q meeting held in
Cleveland last week, the directors of the Lake
Shore Railroad decided to consolidate with the
Toledo, Wabash, and Western on the basis of
100 for Lake Shore and 70 for Wabash. The
consolidation will take place on January /,
when the Lake Shore will make dividend of 4
per cent 1t is denied that Horace f. Clarke
was elected President of the Lake Shore road.
The Money Market.
Money is fairly active at COZ per cent, and
there are anticpations of a greater degree of
stringency, owing to the outflow of currency
to the South and West. Gold opened at 1915
but declined to 1903 on limited business. The
fc cling is decidedly bullish, and rumors of an
other clique are rite Loans per cent. for car
rying. Governments tirmer, and moderately
active. Stocks opened buoyaut on Vanderbilt,
but in consequence of a break in Lake shore,
which fell to 91sI. the market reacted to about
closing prices of saturday.
The balance of the list is steady, with fair
business doing. Pittsburg Railroad has de-
clared o dividend OF fifteen per cent. in scrip.
but as the rule of the Exchange requires that no
road should issue new stock without giving the
Exchange thirty days notice, there was Il
disposition to run Pittsburg from the list.
Finally the matter was referred to the Govern
ing Committee.

Horrors ShipbORrd- -lIutiny, Murder, and
Suicide.
The st. Helena GUdFdidR Of the 2d Mt. relates
sad story, perhaps the saddes that has ever been
recorded in connection with the trai1lC IN human
flesh The French barq1e TamarlS, Captain Bannlc,
left Macao the 9th OF February, 1862 with three
guese interpreter besides eighteen i'll crew. Ac-
cording TO the account of those OF the seamen VINO
still on board the Tamaris. everything passed on
pleasantly until within about 2IO miles OF the Isle OF
Java, n revolt broke out among the free cmlgrants
who seemed TO have got the best of it, the crew tax
ing TO the boats, deserving the ship, and leaving their
unfortunate Captain, who either did not wish
or was not able to abandon his ship, ready prey TO
these enraged semi-savages. What happened TO
this unfortunate cannot learn for certain; ac
cOrding to the Interpreter board the Tamarls he
was cut up aud thrown overheard. Thirty days
these savageS remained in possession of the snip,
when they we're captured by Dutch man-Of-war,
which had been sent in pursuit. The Dutch found
Chinese installed in the late Captains quarters, but
could not discover the slightest trace OF Mr. Ranne.
They placed him and the other leaders OF the revolt
into irons and took the snip TO Padang. At Padang

Java, here TeiOinCd their ship. new captain and

in pursuit OF her destination on the 18th OF
June. BY this date the number of coolies
had been reduced, by arms and disease to 30. Out
mitted suicide when they found that they were to
proceed on their voyage Scores of others have died
Of what cOOlic ship captain phlcgmatCally would
call the effects Of opium. There now remain on
board the Tamarjs seventy-ive emigrants alive
Much as we must ahhOr inc murder and wholesale

Governor the decision is made, and six out Of the
seven Democratic incumbents are oustCd; giving 70
the radicals the District Atorneyshp Coectorshp0t OF

Much feeling exists as to the frat position, the De-
mocratic incumbent being gentleman who, In more
ways than one, mad the confidence Of all parties In

As reward for this decision Il Is perfectly nm
dersOOd that one OF the Judges is TO be appointed by
Governor Geary his Attorney General. This Is JOB
number one, and is rather the largest operation
among these pennsylvania pursts Then, TOO, there
is vacant circuit udgeship which, being for life, IS
preferable to ten years term. This is to be given,

Bul this is not all. There is an ancient apothegm
about taking care Of the pennies as well as tIe
pounds; aud these radical Judges, besides their
visions of professional and judicial prelerment, like
Mrs. Gilpn, have u frugal mind and think OF the
small Jobs too. On the very day of the decsiOn one
OF the successful candidates writes TO one el tne
Judges who has just decided in his favor TO inquire

Ewing, will read his argument in the court ON
the case in which he was engaged when he was

Old Ben Wade
is among the recent arrivals, and was at the
White House to see the President. Ben thinks
1t about time for the administration to take
action on the Cuban question. He says the only
point to be decided is whether the Cubans have
reached point in their revolution which enti-
ties them to recognition. He insists that the
Neutrality laws have nothing to do with this,
but that it is a matter of judgment for the Pre-
sident and his advisers.

mend that the company be compelled TO put
