Defaulter for q Quarter of O Million

BUFFALO, DC. ~.
Joseph Bork, the city treasurer, left this
city for New York on tie p. M, train,
giving as lis reason that he wanted to raise
money to meet his personal obligations,
but in fact as was subsequently, learned to
escape the immediate cons equ.nce of a
heavy dedication. 1t is impossible ut
present 10 determine the exttnt Of the de-
falcaiion, but 1t is thought 10 be about
quarter of a million dollare. His second
term was just drawing to close, SO that
for four years he has had control of the
city's funds. His bonds filed in the Office
of the city clerk, two in number, each for
$4,000 are dated February 10, 1872, and
January 10, 1875, and secured by thirty-five
of the most prominent and wealthy clti-
zens of this city. Before taking his de.
parture Bork made general assignment of
his property, which is estimated at $780,
600. 1t is thought that his assets will fall
far short of the amount of his defalcatiop.

The Charley Ross Sensation.

Charlie Ross, alias Blanchard, alias
Donegar, alias Flinty, still continues to
draw crowded houses, though many, who
at first believed him to be the genuine lost
boy, now are convinced that he is fraud,
says the st. Adams Messenger of Thurs
day evening. Still there are many, yet,
who put implicit faith in his marvellous
stories.
Mr.. Rugg returned the boy to the Jail
Thursday morning, not for the purpose of
imprisoning him, but to avoid annoyance
from the crowds who were arriving TO see
the boy. The child was taken to Smith g
photograph rooms this forenoon to have
his picture taken.
We understand that Mr.. Riggs conf
dence in the boy is undated. The young
ster continues to tell interesting stories of
his adventures and his recolections Of his
lite before his abduction. The latest story
we have heard reported is about sled he
used to slide down hill upon.
A dispatch has been received from Mil
ford, N. H., requesting the return of James
Blanchard, by express. 1t was signed by
Mrs. q. w. Blanchard. Our authorities
will not be likely to send him upon such a
reQuisitOn.

The Barre Academy Fire.

On Monday fire broke out in the floor
of the main hall OF the academy building,
originating from an over-heated register.
The fire burned through the outer wall of
the building in several places, and through
the floor into the rooms beneath. Only its
early discovery and the prompt and well
directed efforts of the firemen and citizens
could have saved the building. The dam
age done by fire is estimated at 5000, and
by water and smoke one-half as much
more. There was no insurance but over
$500 was subscribed by citizens, on Mon
day, for repairing the building, and work
commenced on it Tuesday morning, and
will be ready for use by Friday. In the
meantime the school Is not closed, but
recitations are heard in the churches and
the parlor of the boarding house, Frss
Press.

Railroad Meeting.
NRM YnRK. Dec. 90

NEW YoRR, Dec. 80.
A special meeting on transportation WE
rli this afternoon. The committee On
claims and grievances reported against the
extreme low rates for freight on the New
York rail oa Is What they want Ia uni
formity Of rates. They are not in favor I
rates 81 low that they will moi pay n FL r
aud even lberel return on the capital &C
tually invested, nor are they IL favor of
rates so high that per cent dividends can
be paid upon capital of twice the amount
ever paid in by stock and boudh ,lders as
is the case with the New York Central
road The committee also express dissent o
the practice of giving special contracts, as
being no protection to New York commerce
and besides direct premium TO other dis.
tributing points to divert commerce which
would naturally come to this market The
committee say in regard to the rates now
ruling, it is probable they will not be long
maintained as basis of &c. 20, 20, and 10
cents per hundred to Chicago for the west,
on the second, third, fourth and special
classes respectively, are too low. A fair
basis at this time would be 80, 40, 35, 30
and 25 cents on both cast and west bound
freight at which rates road honestly cap
italized and managed could pay liberal
interest on the investment.
This estimate is the result of careful
full study during term Of years, aided by
several of the most eminent railroad en-
gineers. Uniform rates like these would
soon build up large and steady traffic,
which would ill many cars that are now
hauled back to the west empty, and thus in
the end pay both carrier and merchant. A
better policy was pursued in the past Of
making nominal rates on basis of say Is
cents or 81 for first class freight to Chi
cago, and then cutting under by making
special contract with favorte shippers at
perhaps one-third to one-fourth those rates.
The report was adopted.
Various propositions looking towards an
increase of freight rates between Boston
and New York and Chicago from the
present ruinously low rates ruling between
those points were discussed, but no definite
conclusion was arrived at. A recess was
taken, after which Messrs. Hickson of the
Grand Trunk, Mills of the CENTRALLY Vermont,
Bliss of the Boston and Albany, W. II.
Vanderbilt and Mr.. Rutter Of the New
York Central roads, met at the Brevoort
house. After two hours deiiberation it was
resolved to increase the rates to the old
basis of rs cents per hundred to Chicago.
A meeting of all the roads will be held
shortly to ratify this action.

The First Centennial Gun in Vermont

The historical address of Loveland Nun
son, esq, Monday evening, drew a crowd
ed house. We have never seen Music hall
so completely packed and all the standing
room was occupied. The speaker was
listened to with the closest attention
Throughout. After the address, which, it
is needless to say, showed very careful re-
search and contained nearly all of value
that can now be obtained concerning the
early history of our town. On motion of
Rev. DR.. Wickham, hearty vote of
thanks was accorded TO the speaker, and
on motion of Col. Colburn a unanimous
vote was given for copy of the address
for publication. We suppose it will be
printed in pamphlet form, as most of the
people in town will wish a copy to pre-
serve. A motion was also made and carried
with great deal of enthusiasm that we
have centennial celebration the coming
Fourth of July, and that Mr.. Munson be
invited to deliver the Grafton, which we
hope will be carried out with proper spirit.

A Destructive and Death-dealing
Tornado.

New York, Dec. 80.
A Nashville dispatch says terrific tor
nado passed 10 miles east of Hickman,
hy., Sunday evening, sweeping down
whole forests in its pathway. The force
OF the wind was so great that persons can
now walk over trunks Of trees where
before there was dense woods Twelve
dwelling houses and barns were blown
down Some of them were shattered into
fragments, the inmates barely escaping
with their liyes The worm fences, from
the bottom rail, were all lifted and blown
away. AT Maytield two persons were
crushed to death under the ruins of houses.
A negro was killed outright at another
point. A man named Chucks and lady
named Miss Searoy we're killed. Her sister
was badly crippled. The hotel at Red
foot lake was blown down, the guests
barely escaping. Some were badly bruised
by flying timbers. Death and destruction
left their trace along the entire track of the
tornado, which made noise heard for
miles.
