CHARTER OAK.

HARTFORD, Cenn., July 16.-At the
bearing before Judge Pardee to day
on the question of appointing a re-
ceiver for the Charter Oak Insurance
Company, Charles Z. Perkins, ccuu-
sci for the Insurance Commissioners.
and A. P. Hyde. for rhe management
for the company. asked for delay on
the ground that au effort l. beiIss nIad-
to rescue the company By placing it IL,
the hands of an entire new board oi
directors, and THAT arrangements
might be made so a 10 render the ap
pointment of a receiver unnecessary.
John R. Buck appeared in the interest
of a large number of policy holders,
and argued that the poiicv holders are
the only ones who were likely 10 suf
fer by delay. He urged prompt action.
There was danger that policy bold
ers would lose by letting their policies
lapse while the question of attempting
to save the company was pendn g. Z
short time only should be taken to
settle this point. Judge Pardee
said there was force in this suggestion.
The Injunction was modified so as t.
allow, if necessary, tie pavement OF
moneys for the wages of employees, for
taxes to protect mortgages and liens,
and for the transportation of materials
in carrying on the daily business at
the Wes Virginia mine. Hearing OH
the appointment of a receiver was
then postponed until Tuesday of next
week. 1t is stated that it could be
decided by that time whether new
management could be secured and the
defecit made up so as to save the com
pany.

Returning Friday from what / am in

rooms are cool and they have modern
conveniences, while the small seaport
so-called, where the surf never rolls in
but the sea weed does, where the beach
was composed Of stones and broken glass,
and the trouble about dress was the par

the comfort Of Newport and abandon Of

rises superior TO his surrounding and
keeps cool if he likes, in the latter he
sinks to the level Of circumstances and
does as he pleases, but in one of these
would be places, which is neither fish,
flesh, fowl nor good red herring, he sits
up in starched propriety and store

surf and with only land breeze, while
his wife looks out of the corners Of her

dress, is unhappy if she has not one
gown more than the most dressy woman

of her husband very delightful on that
account, he poor wretch, having passed
the rest of the week in toiling to pay for
all tina: discomfort Deluded souls that

However, all husbands don't make

difference of a consonant between the
husbands and wife's opinion in the mat

it.
New York, as said is dull. barring a
few murders, an occasional swindle, and
the battle between the Temperance

METROPOLITAN NEWS.
From our Special Correspondent

Nb" 1Ohh. 0uAN 4ftu. 1OfE
New York has just gotten into its con-
dition Of Summer dullness, and every
husband, who can find an excuse for do
ing so, has sent his wife and family out
of town. Ifrich, the wife, children, ser
wants, carriages and trunks without
number, have been packed off to New
port. Saratoga, Long Branch, or some
other place where high prices and store
clothes are the rule. Ifthe purse is mar
row, then the family, without the other
accessories, except a smaller number of
trunks, 60 to some place where in a
smaller way, they can ape the proceed
ings of the larger fish. These small fry
with small brains, have hard time of
it, they are not content TO go 10 some
quiet place, because they would die of
the horrors and SO they herd together
in small hot rooms, and wish they had
something TO make splurge with.
Last week took flying "Trip to New
port, where the American auriferous
magnate goes. He is of the higher ton
ed, more cultivated and exclusive sort
than the frequenters of other resorts.
He can afford TO live in cottage valued
at quarter of million, and have cottage
accessories in the same simple ratio. In
many of these however, life is far sim
pier than at some of the cheaper and
fussier resorts. Abundant money has
oiled the domestic machinery until it
runs in perfect grooves, and the morn

but becomes monotonous after time,
unless one takes an interest in places
and likes to note the changes in them.
The sea bathing is delicious, society
charming, and if you have money, cul-
ture and pedigree, there is no more
thoroughly delightful place than New
port If rest, unless you are Bohemian
enough to cast aside all social ethics and
simply play the part ofa locker on, you
had better go anywhere else. There is

THE LOUISIANA BUSINESS.

The members of the Louisiana Re
turning Board have united in a letter
to the New York Herald, in which they
correct what they consider to be i'm
portant errors in the statements tele-
graphed from New Orleans concerning
the proceedings against them. In the
fist place, they deny that they have
been, as stated, indicted by the Grand
Jury for perjury and forgery. They
have never bean indicted by the Grand
Jury at ALL That body refused to find
a bill of Indictment, and upon their re-
fusal the District Attorney filed the
information. The members of the
Board say it is a fact beyond denial
that the Grand Jury was in session
when this information was filed June
Is, and continued in session until the
last of the month. and that they did
not present a bill of indictment against
the Returning Board. Consequently
it is fair to conclude that they did
not find evidence sufficient to justify
it. 1t seems this matter of the Return
ing Board was brought to the attention
of the Grand Jury in the charge of the
Judge soon alter they were impanelled,
so they had ample time and opportun
ity to act on il, but the District Attor-
ney, without any examination of the
case before any examining court, or
having any evidence taken down, of
his own accord, filed the information
in this case.
Another point dwelt upon by the
members of the Board is this: The in
formation was filed in Court on the
18th of June, but it was kept on the
secret files of the Court, and capiases
did not issue until about the 9th day
of July, when the parties gave bail.
Before this time it was known that the
Judge had obtained from the Governor
leave of absence for ninety days, and
that he would adjourn court on the
9TH of July for ninety days, and that
in the meantime nothing could be
done with these cases in court, and the
defendents would have to rest under
the charges until Court convened in
the fall The letter asserts there is
method and design in this, and that if
the District Attorney had been desir-
GUS of having the parties brought to
a speedy trial he knew as we'll facts
three month ago as he did on the 10Th
of June, as the judge especially alluded
to the case in his charge to the Grand
Jury three months ago; and il the
parties had been notified of the infor
nation as soon as it was filed they
could have called for a trial, as the
court sat until the 9TH of July but the
whole matter was delayed, and SEEM
iDgly purposely, until the court Was
about TO adjourn before the parties
could have an opportunity to defend
themselves. The charge in the iufor-
nation is of false return of the Pres
idential electors, and makes no allusion
to the return being false as to any
State or local candidate. So it would
appear that the object was to cast
doubt Oh the returns for Presidential
electors. The whole charge in the in
formation is predicited on the charges
said to have been made in the super
visors' consolidated statements of the
votes of Vernon parish. -Gereland

ing stocks; that the New York agents
were short IS, 900 or $40, 900, and sew

promiscuous fashion; that the officer
immediately in charge of the business
knew little of its real condition and
failed to report that to the company
and that the capital stock of 200, ,00O

solved to close the concern and apply

be made to reinsure the outstanding
risks.
