wall street the Cause Of BaIdwin's
Disgrace.

Oscar Baldwin, the defaulting cashier
of the Newark National Bank, ut first
made pretense that he lost all his funds
through Nugcnt & Co., but this is now
greatly doubted The New York Times of
yesterday says:
"'It may be that Mr.. Baldwin has sunk
all of the $2,400,000 which It is said his
bank has lost in the firm Of c. Nugent &
Co., but / don't believe it, This was said
yesterday by gentleman who does not
wish his name to be used, but who has had
an excellent opportunity to acquire infor-
nation in relation to the business affairs of
both Mr.. Baldwin and Mr.. Nugent The
money that the bank has lost has gone, in
great part, into Wall street and know IT,
Ho continued by saying: 1t was about
year ago, possibly little more
than that, when first became cognizant of
the fact that Mr.. Baldwin was operating in
Wall street. At that time gentleman who
was thoroughly familiar with the business
affairs of the house with whom Mr.. Bald
win operated told me that Baldwin had
that day placed in the hands of his brokers,
through third party, the sum Of $150,000,
to be used in one deal in stocks / watched
the market, and found that Mr.. Baldwin
had been successful in this operation, and
cleared large amount of money. l was
surprised, however, that Baldwin, man
not reputed to be rich, and having a rcpu-
tati0n for absolute honesty and integrity,
should be operating so heavily, and mis-
trusted him, and concluded that he
was using the FUNDS OF the bank, especi-

Mr.. MacVcagh should not have hesitated
q moment in performing the plain duty
that was before him, however much credit
he might be giving to an administration
which he has pretended to dislike. His
lukewarmness at this juncture is either
sponsibility, or it is u mean, petty and mar
row-minded jealousy of the new admins

The Late Temperance Convention.
TO the Editor of the Erening Critic:


The late convention of the Woman'c
Temperance Union demands more than a
passing thought. 1t was composed Of over
two hundred Christian women from thirty
States. In point of dignity, talent, elo.
quence, wisdom, acknowledgement aud
scicntifc-and craftsmanship, as well as so.
cial, moral and religious worth, 1t has never
been equaled by any convocation Of wo-
men in the world, in either ancient or mod.
crn times.
They left an impression upon all thinking
minds that witnessed their deliberations
and listened to the grand, unanswerable ar.
guments in favor of higher, holier. and
purer national polity for the preservation
of the moral purity, as well as the very ex
istence of the human race, that must b.
durable as life; at which bigots may sncer
narrow-minded, illiberal men may ridicule
but the wisest sages cannot refute.

Commissioner Dudley has submitted his
annual report of the Pension Bureau. 1t
shows that on the Both of June last there
were 26S, $50 pensioners, classified as fol-
lows: Army invalids, 1853, OPS army widows,
minor children, and dependent relatives,
1858 navy invalids, 2,1S7; navy widows,
&C., zoos; survivors of the war of 1872,
S,S9S; widows of the war of 1912, 26,029-
2S,40 pensioners were added to the roll
during the year, and the names of 10,712
were dropped, leaving a net increase of 49,
OPS. At the close of the year the annual
pension averaged $107, and tho. aggregate
annual value of all pensions was $2S, $780,
967. The annual payments, however, ex-
coed this sum by several millions of dol.
lars, /. e., tho total amount paid for
pensions during the year, exclusive
of the arrears due in pensions
prior to January 25, 1879, was
$49723, 147.52, which is accounted for
by what is known as arrears of pension on
accrued pension covering the period since
discharge. in the case of q soldier, and
since the soldiers death in tho case of the
widow, etc, etc. Commissioner Dudley
recommends an increase in the salary OF
pension agents, and that the laws in force
prior to June 20, 1873, regulating the fees
of attorneys in pension cases (Which secures
to the attorney his fec only in case Of the
claims allowance), be rc-enacted. His esti-
mate of appropriation necessary for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1888, is $780,
100000, including deficiency estimate o.
$20,O00,000.

William T. Bradley.

Mr. William T. Bradley, long prominent as grocery merchant in this city, died yester- day at Middletown. He had been failing in health for two years past. His loss will be regretted by many friends who will recall him to mind as genial friend, an upright, conscientious and estimable citizen. De- ceased succeeded his father, the late Asa Bradley, in the grocery business which had long been carried on by the father and be- came an old established house. Deceased was the eldest son and was born in 1916. In 1889 the deceased went into partnership with his father under the firm name of Asa Brad ley & Son, brother Henry being then clerk. The elder MT. Bradley died more than 30 years ago, and the firm was afterward known as w. T. Bradley & Co.,, Henry being taken into partnership. He died about '66. Early in 184O William T. Bradley was married, his wife being Mary Ann Garfield. The lady died about a year and half ago, leaving two sons and daughter, the latter now married to prominent and successful merchant of Cleveland, Ohio, Alfred B. Sterling The late MT. Bradley was in 1877 engaged in busi- ness where Gilbert $ Thompson are now, and then was considered a prosperous man, hav- ing long been carrying on business with a fine line of custom. He removed back to State street near Grown and sought to win back the old prestige and success accompan- jed by many well wishes of old friends, but fickle fortune would not be wooed again and the end was failure, a result due in great measure to broken health He went out of mercantile business and for year or two was engaged in such light outdoor business as his health permitted until his health failed copnDIefelv

A Young Lady's Death from Overdose o

Young Lady's Death from Overd0se Ot
 Choral.
 Miss Lizzie V. Barber, aged 21, the only daughter of Mir. James Barber, residing on New Britain avenue, Hartford, died Sunday from the effects of an overdose of chloral administered less than twenty-four hours previous. The young lady had been suffer ing from the ''cutting' of wisdom tooth, irritation from which had produced 8 very painful swelling of the jaw and face. The advice of Dr. George F. Hawley being sought in hope of obtaining relief. prescription was written by him and instructions given with regard to the proper quantity to be taken, frequency of dose, etc. As usual with all prescribing physicians, no informa- tion was volunteered concerning the ingredi- ents of which the mixture was composed, nor does it appear that the physician consid- cred it important to caution against an excess sive use of the medicine. For some reason, however, Miss Barber failed to fol low directions literally, but used con- siderably more than she ought to have done, becoming in consequence so suddenly and se- riously prostrated that Dr. Hawley was again hastily summoned. The application of the stomach pump, with such other restoratives as medical skill could suggest, failed to bring reaction or relief, and the young lady re- mained in comatose state for several hours or until death ensued. The fatal potion was mixture of chloral and morphine. It is not
 known precisely what quantity was taken by
 the unfortunate lady, but it is supposed to have been about double the quantity direct ed-at least it appears to have been enough to produce fatal results. Miss Barber was a young lady of intelligence and refinement, and it is little singular that she should have gone beyond the doctors directions, though of course it was in the hope of sooner alle- viating her distress. While this event fur nishes another. illustration that physicians and druggists cannot be too careful in indi- eating the character of the dang serous drugs which they dispense, it shows also that pa- tients and nurses ought never to experiment with remedies with the nature and compost tion of which they are not thoroughly famil- iar.-Harttord Post.

A Serious Accide ent

Brakeman Baird Run Over by the Cars
 His Leg Amputated Above the Knee.
 Last evening about 9 o'clock while James Baird, @ brakeman on the Canal railroad, was coupling cars in the company's yard he was knocked down and run over by freight car, the wheels passing over his right leg below the knee. Dr. F. H. Whittemore was called and advised that he be taken to the hospital This was done, and after reaching there 8 consultation of physicians was held. They decided that amputation was necessary to save the mans life, and later they arnputated his leg above the knee. The latest reports from the hospital last evening were that the unfortunate man was doing as well as could be expected under the circumstances. Baird was single man and boarded with his moth- CT at No. 317 Water street, being her chief support. The injured brakeman and the af- Aicted mother will have the sympathies of the public.
