Back from Texas. f. Nrssssxa


Yesterday afternoon procession consist
ing of dilapidsted wagon drawn by i've
raw-boned horses, and containing two slckly
looking women and half dozen tow-headed
children, moved from the river landing east
ward. A couple Of raw-boned and sallow
men were In the adasnce, mounted on the
poorest of poor horses, and they were
followed by the histrionic yellow
dog, which, in this instance,
was crippled and limped badly. The 90,
cupsnts OF the dismsnteled and weather
beaten prairie schooner said they had been
to Arkansas and Texas for two years, but
they had bad luck. The drouth ruined the
crops, the folks got the chills and fever, two
of the children died, and becoming dishear-
tened they concluded to bid adieu to the
golden land of the West, with its mirages of
fertile lands and visions Of big harvests, and
return to the old home in North Alabama.
The party seemed happy that they had
reached the east bank Of the Mississippi
river,

An Interesting and Mixed Up Will Case.
 The New York Times prints the following from it's Greenwich correspondent in refer- ence to a case which excited considerable in- terest in the Superior Court in Bridgeport :
 MT. Abram B. Davis, who was at one time in business at No 192 Cherry street, New York, and a resident of this place, died in February, 1879, leaving widow, to whom he was married in 1842, but no children de- scendants. He left an estate valued at from $175,O00 to $2O0, 900, all of which he left by will to his wife, excepting bequest of $5,OO0 to his brother, Silas Davis, whom he made executor, with the wife executrix, of the will The will was dated April, 1871, nearly eight years before his death, and when it was offered for probate the children of the deceased brothers and sisters of the testator, being next of kin, contested it, alleging men, tai incapacity in the testator and the exercise of undue influence by the wife over the bus band. The case came before 8 jury in the Superior Court at Bridgeport, and 1t was shown that former will had been found among the dead mans papers made by him in June, 1S49, when he made the same dispo- sltlon of his property as in the will of 1871. and differing from it only in the state ment of his place of residence and the language used to describe the property bequeathed. The jury decided to sustain the will of 1871, and their decision was appealed from and new trial asked for in the Stu preme Court of Errors of the State. That court refused to grant the trial and the de- cision in the Superior Court was therefore affirmed. The counsel engaged on the case were Messrs. D. B. Lockwood, Samuel Fes- senden and N. B. Hart for the will, and Messrs. Olmstead & Scofeld and Mason & Hubbard for the contestants. The case was in court two years and occupied four weeks in trial Eighty witnesses were examined The costs, which were unusually small, were taxed by the court last week, and amounted to $327 63, and they were immediately paid bv the contestants

A Rig Ra1Iroad Scheme

It is announced that Jay Gould has secured a controlling share of the stock of the New York &J New England road, and so informed Wall street yesterday. Russell Sage and Cyrus W. Field are with him in the transae ton. A friend of Mir. Gould said that the great railroad magnate had long had his eye on the New York $ New England, and began vigorous efforts to secure control of it as soon as he made certain of his grip upon the systems of elevated roads in New York. He believed the New York & New England to be the key to the eastern traffic against Van derbilt, and Sage and Field taking the same views entered heavily into the scheme with him. They began picking up the stock and bonds, and the transfer books now show that they are the owners of at least $11, 100000 out of the company's total stock of $2o, oO0,- GOO. The whole move was carried out so quietly that it had been consummated before outside parties knew of it.
 The Lehigh Valley and the New Jersey roads, it is said, propose to extend their lines to Newburg, on the Hudson river, which is the western terminus of the New York & New England. The Erie road also connects with the New York X New England at this point, giving that line facilities heretofore unimagined in the way of coal transportation into New England.
 Mir. Gould's plans also include provisions for direct connection for New York traffic At present the New York & New England passenger cars to New York run into the city over the New York, New Haven < Hartford tracks, and the passengers are landed at the Grand Central depot. Mir Gould has made a proposition to the New York & New Haven people which looks to another arrangement far as the depot is concerned, and the lat ter have intinated their intention of accept ing it.
 Mir. Gould intends, 1t is asserted, to build large depot in the central part of the city, probably in the neighborhood of Twenty: third street, and his proposition to the New York and New Haven managers probably Is to have them join him in this feature of his enterprise. Trains by this plan would run without change from Boston and other New England points through to the center of the city, and passengers will be landed at the ele- vated railway stations just wheresoever they may choose to alight without any change of cars. In case the New York and New Haven does not come into this scheme, Mr Gould will establish an independent con- nection to New York by building road to the city from the main line, starting at Dan be run into New York over the Second ave- nue elevated line.
 MT. W. H. Vanderbilt said Tuesday night that he had received information regarding Gould's deal in New York and New England. He smilingly said, however, that he saw nothing very remarkable in the scheme, as he understood 1t He had no fear of being extinguished by the project, in which he dis covered many weaknesses.

Heavy Thefts of Public Funds.

Heavy Thefts of Public Funds.
 PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 23-An extraordinary special meeting of citizens of the reform com mittee of one hundred was called this after noon on two hours notice. When the com mittee had assembled Chairman Jarrett said : Startling disclosures have been made to us concerning wholesale robberies and theft in the State and city treasurer's office through the tax office, and it has been discovered that certain prominent institutions-'' At this point he was interrupted by Receiver of Taxes Hunter, who is understood to have made the discoveries, and after consultation it was announced that information would be suppressed pending the next meeting of the city council. Intense excitement prevails in political circles, but up to midnight to-night the facts in the case have not been developed.
 LATER-It is stated that the disclosures which have aroused the citizens committee related to frauds on the tax office which go back to 1872 and affect many men who now occupy high social positions and are promi- nent in local Republican politics. Many thousands of dollars are said to be involved. The matter will be brought before the city council on Thursday of next week unless le- gal steps are taken in the interim.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 23.-The governing committee of the Stock Exchange which has been pursuing an investigation into the stand ing of companies listed in the mining annex officially announced to day that the Atlas, At lanta, Etna, Alonzo and West Ontario com panies would be stricken off the list Monday on the ground that they are merely wildcat concerns.

After the announcement large transfers were made at one cent. Tie West Ontario compa- ny claims mines in Summit county, Utah, and was chartered in New York with issue of 100000 shares at one dollar per share. There was considerable excitement when the deci sion was pasted, it being understood that sev- eral concerns are to be outlawed
