Wilmington & Western Railroad.


RECEIVER oANBY ExEcUTKs HIS BOND AND TAREs
POSSESSION OF THE RoAD-No CHANGE IN sUBoR-
DINATEs
William M. Candy, appointed Receiver OF the
W. & W. Railroad, in the U. 8. Circuit Court,
yesterday gave bond in the amount of $4,000,
and William Candy and Edward T. Belah were
accepted as his gureties. He then took possess
sion Of the road, and assumed its entire man man
agement, according to the order OF the Court.
Notice OF this ia given elsewhere. Mr.. Candy
made no change in the subordinate officers OF
the road, and none is at present anticipated.
The actual reason why the proceedings taken
Yesterday have now been precipitated is that
two suits were in progress in the Court at New
Castle, against the Company, one OF them being
a claim for $4,000. sued for by Matthew Baird,
of Philadelphia, formerly head OF the Baldwin
Locomotive Works, this sum being his share OF
$4,000. which the Company owes that concern.
| II these Judgments had been obtained, the rev.
| enues of the road could have been attached, or
it's property seized, to satisfy them to the pref
| udice Of other creditors. The application for
| the appointment Of Receiver WAS acqulesced
| in Nv ali psrties concerned, but there WAS 3
preference felt on the part Of some. Tor conhn-
| uinp Mr. Bradford, who has served for nearly
two years as President without any compensa-
ton, and has given much time and iapor
| to the position, in charge OF the road as
| RECEIVER Judge Bradford, however,, as stated
in Yesterdays report, took the view that Mr..
Bradford's being President made it improper
that he should be made Receiver, though it was
pointed out that Mr.. Candy stood in exactly the
same relation to the corporation, being himself
a member of the Board Of Directors, elected by
the stockholders. -,
The only difference among the roads credi-
tors, thus far, is therefore in reference to the
selection of Receiver, and all parties announce
their confidence in Mr. Canby's integrity OF pur,
pose. The question, however, whether the roao re-
sbalI now be forced to sale, under the bill FLED
Yesterday, will probably develop decided oppo'
sition OF views Col. Fl. s. MoComb is under
stood to be, as he was two years ago, strong
advocate of foreclosure and sale.

A MAN SHOT WHILE DEFENDING HIMsELF AGAINST

The third murder within year in Delaware
county was committed on Monday A party OF
six men, with four dogs, were cunning in Ha-
yerford township, near or on the farm occupied
by Samuel Hibbard. The dogs were frightening
the sheep on the place, and Hibbard requested
the men to leave. This they refused to do, and,
after some words, it is said that Hubbard shot
one Of the dogs-a setter. One Of the gunnera
then struck Hubbard with the butt OF his gun;
fight ensued, and at this junoture 1t is alleged
that Sheridan interfered, and one OF the party IN
retaliation fred 1t him, the shot taking ehect In
the right side of his head killing him instantly.

place, they fed and in short time they we're

CONTINUATION OF THE INSTITUTE AT EI.KToN.

The second session Of the Presbyterian Sun
day School Institute was opened, this morning,
as usual, Rev. E. W. Gaylord conducting the de-
votional servicee.
conversion of the scholars, after which lady
teacher read paper on 1.-The "lnfant Glass, "
dwelling upon the importance OF the depart
ment, inquiring why 30 few parents visit the in
FAINT school, and chsracterizng as a mistake the
belief that It is an outside institution.
Rev. Mr.. Wisong, of Baltimore, spoke on the
same subject. He said we should have more
confidence In the conversion OF little children
they have happy death beds. They should have
the best teachers good room and not some old
parents should take special interest in the well
fare Of the children, and should ask them ques-
tions pertaining to each Sabbath's exercise.
How to Keep Your Glass Full, u was the next
subject by Rev. E. W. Gaylord, who said 1t was
pertinent question, and that q good way WAS to
He did not believe in too many rewards In the
way of tickets &C., nor to make the school q
place Of general amusement. Give them some
thing worth coming to school for, Some teach
terest children and they soon see when teachers
are in earnest.
The reports from the various delegates pre-
sent exhibited very encouraging and gratifying
results during the past year.
Rev. G.. P. Mallery conducted the afternoon
devotional exercises.
1.-THE Relation of The School to Missions u
WAS the subject of an address by j. T. McCul-
Tough, who gave brief review of the results
arising from mission work. He maintained that
we should teach our children its importance
teach them also the duty Of giving, and incul-
cate the idea Of sacrifice on their part and moi
depend on their parents.
'Shall we Dispense with the Library" formed
the subject OF an address by Rev. G. E. Jones,
who claimed that the library is most far-reaoh-
ing in it's influence, and may be made the most
potent in all Sunday School appliances.
The answering Of questions WAS next in order,
among which were ''What shall be done with
Lazy Teachers?" Referred to @. P. Mallery, who
would try an earnest, pointed conversation, and
If nothing else would do turn them out.
/" Would you Teach Total AbstnenceY This
was referred to Mr.. Torbert, who said he would
teach temperance in all things.
Several subject of interest were considered at
the evening session, among which were ''Objeot
Teaching and the Use of the Blackboard" "by W.
A. Wisong ''The Teacher's Qualifications and
Work." by Rev. f. d. Duval "The Sunday a
Spiritual Power" by Rev. O. p. Mallery.
Music WAS blended into all the exercises.
Many thanks are due the pastor, W. W. Heber-
ton, for his kindness, and to VIM. Fl. Purnell
for his management Of the Institute.

sons great excitement in the Spanish capital. A
complete summary of the Cuban section of the
American State document Was cabled TO Senior
OollAntes, Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs.
There WAS, In consequence, an informal meet.

OF the Message startles the Spanish statesmen,
The delay Of one day in handing in the paper
to Congress is regarded suspiciously, and the
Presidents disclaimer OF bslligerenoy will be
variously discussed in The Spanish newspapers
tomorrow,
Duplcity will most likely be charged against
the American Chief Magistrate, and the ultra

The Madrid newspapers are issuing extras"

is equal to that which WAS witnessed during the
