The Portage Land Grant-GeneraJ Mana
ger Pech;'s Statement.
fChicag0 Tribune, 4th. !

lCnlcagO tribune, 4tn.
Mr. G. P. Peck, general manager of the Chi.
cago, Portage & Superior railroad, who has
just returned from Madison, Wis.,, where he
has been engaged in advocating an extension
OF the time for the completion of the sixty
two miles of road necessary to secure the
Portage Immigrant from May next until Sep.
TENDER, stated to Tribune representative yes
terday that the legislature adjourned until
Tuesday, and no action has yet been taken on
the bill. Mr.. Peck has strong hopes that the
legislature will speedily pass the bill extend
ing the time for his company to complete the
sixty-two miles of resd The argument of
his company is, that the State OF Wisconsin
will be benefited by such action, because by
doing so it will secure a new competitive
line all the way from Superior to Chicago,
while If the grant is given to the other parties
they will simply construct the sixty. two miles
of road necessary to secure the grant, and the
whatever. Under the present provisions CT
the law, if his road does not finish the requir-
ed sixty-two miles of road from Superior
south, the Chicago, st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Omaha is promised the grant If it completes
the required number of miles of road by Sep
TENDER, and Mr.. Peck can therefore see no
good reason why his company should not be
allowed the same length of-time in which to
complete that portion Of the road, especially
since his company agrees to build the line to
Chicago at once, and give the state of Wiscon-
sin the benefit of new competing route to
Chicago, which it will not get if the st. Paul
& Omaha company or the Cable company Sc
cure the land grant. The principal object of
the party or parties who secured tie Jackson
stock is, AS Mr.. Peck thinks, to keep the Grand
Trunk out of the Northwestern territory, and
their only desire is to benefit themselves and
not the state of Wisconsin. Without the land
grant, Mr.. Peck says, his company will not be
able to build the Portage road, as, in such q
caee, the enterprise could not be made to pay.
The money derived from the land grant would
be necessary to pay the English capitalists as
interest on the money they have promised to
furnish with which to build the new line.

Handicapping american Horses ia Eng
land;
The heavy weights given the American
horses in England, and especially FoxhaIl, is
very unsatisfactory on this side Of the water
The Spirit of tho Times, evidently voicing
the sentiments of Mr.. Keene and Mr.. Loril-
lard makes the following comments: 1.-THE
only horses whose weights are announced,
with the exception of Peter, are the Americans
in the stables of Messrs. Lorillard and Keene
Hence, deprived as we are of tine handicap we
cannot consider relatively, but only in so far
as the top.weights compare with those of the
previous years. The despatch states that Fox
hall has been allotted to the top weight, 1873
lbs. It is crushing weight, especially when,
as is likely, the bottom weight carried by
some 3-yearol will be as low as II lbs.
Peter is in at $50 lbs, Iroquois, 1875 lbs; Ar
rama, 105 lbs. and Gerald, SO lbs. If the
complain at these, unless Gerald's will be the
exception. Last season the 3-year-olds were
called upon to carry 81 lbs. In the city and
suburban, and the inference is that the handi-
capper considers Gerald 5 lbs better than any
of the American Swear olds of last year-a
supposition in which We humbly beg to differ
with the handicapped.
Gerald's record as a two-year old is not re-
markable, but highly credtable It's no bet
ter, however, nor as good as that of Iroquois
The City and Suburban is race which, gen
orally speaking, attracts such an excellent
field of horses, that it is seldom won by Sec
ond-rater. Thunder's victory at six years old
with 100 lbs. was capital, but not as good as
that of Cremone in 1878. Cremorne carried
2 lbs. more thanis allotted to Iroquois and the
Derby winner of 1872, had record as three.
year old no better than that of Iroquois. Both
ran second for the Guineas and won the Derby
but Cremorne did not follow it up with St.
Leger victory. Still he ran second for the City
and Suburban, conceding A lbs. to some of his
field, and the performance is one of the best on
the English records. In fact Bend Or is about
the only one of the Derby winners who, as 6
four-year old, has won under heavy weight
