A Warrant for Gardner A. Fuller, the
Broker"

q warrant Tor Gardner A. Fuller, the
Broker"
In view of the probability of Gardner A.
Fuller furnishing $4,000 bail on the charge of
conspiring to defraud Daniel Goodnow out of
the bark Western Sea and her cargo, war
rant for his arrest for obtaining money under
false pretences was placed in the hand of the
sheriffs officers by detective Gerraughty on
Saturday. The warrant charges Fuller with
having obtained $50, by false pretences, from
Mrs. Catherine Driscoll, and with having Civ
en- her mortgage on certain goods which he
claimed to be free of incumbrance. Fuller
has denied this charge, but the alleged bogus
mortgage as well as other documentary evil
dence, were exhibited Saturday evening, to
show at least his connection with the fraud, as
well as the fact that he never paid single cent
on the goods covered by the mortgage. The
bark Western Sea, now overdue at Boston, was
expected to arrive yesterday.

Grand Trunk.

The Boston Herald says: The rumor is that
the Grand Trunk is carrying -four for 20 cents
barrel, or at the rate of 10 cents hundred
for grain. The fact that most of this -four
goes by the commercial line, which runs over
the Erie and Grand Trunk roads, indicates
that the Erie may be assisting the Grand
Trunk road in this endeavor to get business.
The Grand Trunk and Erie are reported
anxious to have grain rates advanced to 20
cent basis, and they may have cut rates in or
der to force the fighting. 1t is believed that
the other roads will be compelled to reduce
charges

Another pleasant day New arrivals are
pouring in, and so far the camp meeting is a
success. The prayer and social meetings
manifest deep interest on the part of the peo-
pie. At9a m. there was session of the
American Health and Temperance Associa-
ton. AT 1890 Elder Canright gave a sermon
on "Faith," full of rich thoughts.
In the afternoon Elder Butler addressed the
people at 2 o'clock from Matt. "a: 10, As. The
connection in the last part of the chapter is
close and plainly relates to the days Immediate
ly preceding the coming of the Son of Man.
Although no one can know tho exact time of
his coming there will be those who will be
watching, and not taken by surprise when it
comes to pass. The signs given in the chapter
show that these are the last days. Soon Christ
will come and there is great work to be done
by his people. They also have great need of
faith Either this Is great truth or great
error. Each one should search carefully for
himself, and those who hold it to be true are
under mnch responsibility. The temptations
of the age are peculiar and there is danger
that a stupor will fall upon the church. AS all
great truths have been unpopular SO this is
and few will accept, but those who do should
be the more willing to consecrate themselves,
then all for its PRONUNCIATION.
At sunset short service was held at which
Elder Butler spoke concerning the Sabbath,
which this denomination commences at sunset
Friday evening, and close Saturday at the
same time.
Afterwards at usual hour Elder D. w. Can
right preached upon the subject, present
Truth" Quite a number of people were pre-
sent from outside the camp ground, but the
earnestness of the speaker seemed to touch
them and perfect order was observed.
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1881-08-29

The social meetings were very well attended
in the morning. At 8 a. m. an interesting Sab
bath School was held to show the plan on
which the regular Sabbath Schools should be
conducted. The sermon at 1880 was by Elder
Butler, who spoke from the words found in
Ron. II: IL beseech you therefore by the
mercies of God that ye present your bodies to
him. living sacrifice, holy acceptable which is
your reasonable service"
The preaching service opened in the after
noon at the usual hour with prayer by Rev. j.
B. Goodrich. Mr. Butler then spoke from the
fourth chapter of James.
At the close of the discourse an invitation to
the mercy seat was given, which several &C
cepted. Mr.. Canright made remarks and the
meeting closed with prayer. l.. u.

pool for Baltimore, 124 days out, short OF
provisions and supplied them. The crew
were in most deplerable condition
having sustained life for several days on
strips of leather soaked i'm lamp oil until
the oil gave out. and then On the cap
tain's dog, after which there was moth
ing but cannibalism and death staring
them in the face. To add to their suf-
ferings, vessels passed several days be-
fore within short distance, but paid NO
attention to their signals of distress.
Nine days previous to being spoken by
the NebO their last drop of water had
been drank and three days later their
supply of boots, shoes and oil was ex-
hausted and when relieved by the Nebo
the entire crew were nearly crazed from
hunger and thirst.
The NebO sent a months provisions on
board. When the first boat load arrived,
the mate leaped aboard the Tiger, eating
biscuit. He was pOunced upon by the
shipmates, who literally fought like dogs
for cracker. Then they rushed upon
the other provisions, and tore them i'm
the same way as famished wolves might
have done.

Navigation Notes.

Last week a stage line was still run
ming on the ice between Alpena and
points on Saginaw bay and between
Tawas and Bay City, temporary hotel
was still in full blast.
The Detroit Evening News says a gen.
tleman drove in fOur-hOrse sleigh on
Saturday from TawaS to Pine river, a
distance of 35 miles, on the ice. Off the
mouth of the Au Ores river the ice was
40 inches thick.
Tuesdays papers report navigation
open on lake Michigan at some of tha
ports, with a snow storm at Chicago
which spoiled the fresh painting of some
of the crafts at that port OccasiOning
much profanity.
On lake Erie the ice is bOthering navi-
cation very much. Several crafts left
Detroit for Cleveland the latter part of
last week and some of them got within
sight of that port but were met with a
heavy field of ice and were compelled to
turn back.
The outlook at the present time is not
very favorable for an early opening of
among vessel captains now at this port

before crafts will be able to get through
the straits.
The crossing on the straits is as good
now as at any time during the winter
and large loads of timber and merchan-
disc are taken over daily without any
difficulty. The air during the day is so
cold that it does not thaw the ice par
ticle and every night it freezes hard.
Last week travellers on the Saginaw bay
were entertained ON the ice between
Point Au Tres and Point Lookout, in a
comfortable summer hotel, kept by an

The Late Senator Carpenter.

The remains of Senator Carpenter ar
rived at Milwaukee last Saturday after
noon. There was an immense thrOng of
people. fairly blOckading the streets in
the vicinity of the depot, awaiting to
give token of their remembrance of Wis
cOnsin's illustriOus Senator. From the
depot the remains were taken directly to
the court house, escorted by procession.
The way to the court house was packed
with people, the citizens turning out
en- masse. At the court house the rOtunda
was suitably prepared for the reception
of the remains, where they were to lie in
state until Sunday afternoon. When
the casket was placed upon the raised
dais prepared for it. Senator COnkling
stepped forward and addressed Gov.
Smith as follows:
"GOvERNOR-W are deputed by the
Senate of the United States to bring
back the ashes of WiscOnsin's illustriOus
son and reverently and tenderly return
them to the great commonwealth he
served so faithfully and loved so we'll.
To Wisconsin the pale and sacred clay
belongs, but the memory and fame of
Matthew Hale Carpenter are the nations
treasure; and long will the sisterhOOd of
states mourn the bereavement which bow
all hearts to-day.
