The Millar has unsurpassed passen-
ger accommodations. Captain Jas.
Wilson, who has been absent from
his post two trips owing to the i'll
ness Of his wife, who we are happy
to learn is improving rapidly, is
again in the Office and was warmly
greeted this morning by his numer-
GUS friends.
After this week a new schedule
will be inaugurated by the Mem
phis and Ohio River Packet Com
pany. Three boats a week from
Cincinnati to Memphis is the cry
at all points at and between the two
cities, and Commodore James S.
Wise, superintendent of the line, is
equal to the occasion. He says the
people shall have three boats per
week and that they shall be run
on schedule time. The Andy Baum,
Captain II. j. Vinton, left Cincinnati
Wednesday, evening, and the Vint
Shinkle, Captain James Kenniston
will leave Saturday evening. On
Tuesday next the first of the tri-
weekly packets, the magnificent
sidewheeler Ben Franklin, Captain
H. H. Drown, leads the van the
elegant James D. Parker, Captain
@. B. Russell, will follow on Thurs.
day, and the unrivaled James w.
Gaff, Captain R. W. Wise, on Sat-
urday. The arrangement will be
maintained for the balance Of the
season, during which round-trip
excursion tickets, good to return on
any boat Of the line, will be offered
for sale at popular rates. The COM
pany is already preparing its adver-
Using for the great May musical
festival, which will occur in Cincin-
natl next month, and also the Wo-
mems Art Exhibition, which will
be held throughout the same month.
The steamers of the line are all be-
ing put in complete order, and will
rival in completeness of detail any
previous line Of boats that ever
held sway between Cincinnati and
Memphis.

STEAMBOAT DISASTER
The Cotton Valley Run Down on the
Mississippi.
Passengers and Deckhands Drowned.

Special to the Star.
NEW ORLEANS Dec. 2.-Yesterday morn
ing at 4 o'clock the Cotton Valley, going up
and bound for Shreveport, was struck by
the Charles Morgan, coming down from
Cincinnati, and sunk in less than fifteen
minutes. The wind was blowing gale,
and the Morgan rapidly drifted off without
being able to render any assistance to the
sinking boat. The passengers of the Cotton
Valley were asleep at the time of the colli-
sion, and Sol. Meyer, Daniel Gehr, Henry
Levy, merchants of Alexandria, La, and
Miss Sanford, aged sixteen, Of Louden
County, Va, are known to be lost. The
officers think twelve or fifteen roustabouts,
mostly colored, went down with the boat
and were drowned.
The Captain and his wife, two children,
and an elderly lady reached the shore in a
life-boat. The river was strewn with por-
tions of the cargo. The passengers and
crew were clinging TO boxes, planks, or
whatever they in the darkness and confu-
sion had goi hold of, as means of safety.
The collision occurred as the boats were
rounding Bringier's Point, just below DON
aldsonville and it came so suddenly that
those who slept hardly had time to realize
their situation. The Morgan arrived here
few hours later, and her officers state that
the engines of both vessels were stopped at
once, but the force of the storm drove them
together,

THE BREWERY CASE DECIDED.
Leo. A. Brigel Ordered to Surrender the
Possession to Starbuck u Pfau,
And Fined 5000 for Contempt Of Court

The case OF Starbuck & Pfau against Leo, A.
Brigel was decided to-day by Judge Long
worth. The Court said 1t was an nppliea-
ton for an injunction, and also for an order
against Brigel to show cause why he should moi be
attached for contempt in dsObeyng an order Of
the Court, requiring HIM not to interfere with tho
management of the Weber Brewery by Starbuck 4
Pau. Starbuck & Pfau were the original assign
ees. Upon a meeting of the creditors Of
Weber hel in the Probate Court. it appeared that
majority in NUN Der was in favor of reelecting
Starbuck Il Pau, but i'll the amount of indebted
ness il was in favor of Brigel. The law requiring
that both in number OF creditors and amount al
Indebtedness there should be majority befOre
either party was elected. The Probate Court held
that neither party was elected, and ordered an
other election.
Judge Longworth held that the Probate co,ttt
had no authority, after the creditors had omen
held a meeting, TO order another meeting ami
that the order which that Court made 10 p2lk
Brigel into possession was not valid order. But
if ii were valid order it was rendered In May and
the Sheriff could not act under it in November
The paper therefore in the hands OF the Sheriff
under which he Undertook TO put Brisel into pos
session was simply waste paper, and the entry in.o
the Brewery by the Sheriff and by brigrl
was without warrant of law
The injunction against Brigel would thereIorn
be allowed and restitution should be made tn
Starbuck & Piau The possession was taken bv
Brigel before the service of the injunction. hui
there could be no dispute that after it was sssved
ne continued to interfere with the management
OF Starbuck & Pfau, and that he caused the safe.
in which the books and valuablcs of tie estate
were contained, to be forcibly opened.
1t is clear he has dsObeyed the order of the
Court The Court held, therefore. that S;arbuek
& Pfau should be put in y 'sscssiun, and that
Brigel was guilty Oh contempt, and pay the n
500,
