ly adopted.
This heals all differences and each as
ISOLATION will hereafter respect all the con-
tracts and rulings of the other. At the
afternoon session some changes were made

four assistants, and the rules governing
them were brought into harmony with
those of the league.
The resignation of the Star club, of
Covington, KY, was accepted, and the

HALIFAx, March 12.-The City Of Chester
from New York has arrived here. Capt.
Watkins reports that at O'Clock the Mon

raced away and an examination showed
the shaft broken. Sail was at once put on
and the ship proceeded, keeping in the
track of steamers. On Tues

came within hailing distance and laid by
until the next morning, when she took her
in tow. THE Suevia signaled her coal
supply was getting low, but said she
would head for Halifax. The next day one

denly parted. The captain of the Suevia
then signaled he must proceed to New
York alone. 1t was blowing heavy and
Captain Watkins requested him to lie by
the City of Chester until the
weather moderated, as he wished to be
towed back in the track of the steamers
but the Suevia replied she was in want of
coal, and steamed on her way without
rendering any further assistance. Sail was
put on again, and the City of Chester CON
tinued towards Halifax. On the morning Of
the 10th the steamer Missouri came along
and towed the City of Chester to port. The
passengers were much concerned when the
Suevia steamed away.

Freeman on the motion argued sometime
since in the suit of the New York Elevated
Railroad company on behalf of the Metro
politan company, to set aside judgment
which had been entered in December, 1881.
This action was begun to set aside the tri-
partite lease and agreement of October,
1881. Judgment was entered upon the
consent of all parties, and virtually afirms
the legality of the October agreement.
The Metropolitan company made motion
for stay on the ground that its stock

New YORK, March 1.-THE demand for
stocks at the opening this morning caused
a .buoyant feeling at values improved from
the start. Union Pacific continues to be
the favorite among the room traders, and
to-day has not wanted for company, as all
dividend payers were in demand. Specu-
lation was active also in some of the mis-
cellaneous securities so long dormant, such
as Mobile & Ohio, Indiana, Bloomington &
Western, and Ohio Central. Transactions
in the latter, especially, are increasing, but
the change to-day in it has been unimpor-
tant. Good properties which were de-
pressed and freely sold fortnight ago,
like Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
and others OF its class, now
find ready buyers among those who
are looking for permanent investment.
Northern Pacific preferred continues dull,
but it is not unlikely to become active at
any time and is spoken OF as a REASONABLY
purchase at about the present figures by
its friends. The late reports regarding st.
Paul seem to have had no weight to-day,
and its strength has been an important
feature in the market. The dividend of
80 per cent. on the common will be de-
clsred this afternoon. Missouri Pacific, it
is said, will show net earnings fer 1882
equal 10 10 per cent. on the stock. A divi-
dend Of ll11s May 1 upon Canada Southern
is spoken of as among the probabilities.
The closing was firm throughout.
Money ranged from 6 to 8. The dark
spot continues to be the money market,
which is indeed in bad way. The bank
reserves are $5,166,15O below the limit,
very much worse than at any correspond
ng date in many years. 1t occasions con-
siderable anxiety. The annual statement
of the Wabash company is expected to be
bad. The deficit, it is now SAID, will be
$1,000,000. 1t is rumored this afternoon
that the bulls have received a most valu-
able addition in the form of a syndicate to
push prices upward, but there is no telling
how true it is.

The Massachusetts Pauper Dead.

BosToN, March 12.-In regard to the
charges in Gov. Buffers message that traf-
fc in the bodies of pauper dead at the
state aims house had been carried on a
long time, the Journal prints a statement
to the effect that of $500 deaths in ten
years 500 bodies were delivered to the med
ical colleges according to law. There
was no record of the disposition of the re-
naming 1920, supposed to be buried in
the Potter's Field, but it is alleged that
some graves have no body. Charges have
been made that bodies have been preserved
in picking fluid and sent to distant
points in kerosene barrels. The superin-
tendent states that this was done in few
instances at the request of the Harvard
college, in the warm weather.

morning in the Dukes-Nutt murder case.
The point of his testimony was that when
Mutt was shot by Dukes he was standing
with his right arm resting on the mantel
and his left arm hanging by his side. He
was exhausted and breathing heavily from
the strus gle with Dukes, which was just
over, and making no movement of any
kind. The defense in cross-examining
Breckenridge sought to break him
down by showing that at the
hearing before the coroner he had not
testified with absolute certainty to the facts
but wanted to do so. Breckenridge ex-
planned that he was in a state of great
mental excitement and physical prostra-
tion when the coroner examined him, i'm
mediately after the murder of his uncle,
and that his recollection was not as clear
then as now.
A. D. Boyd, who opened the case for the
commonwealth, outlined the plan by
which it would be shown that Dukes opened
correspondence with Capt. Mutt, and after
writing scandalous and villainous letters,
invited Mutt to come to his room for &
peacsable settlement, and then murdered
him. The defense are making an effort to
keep out anything bearing on the contents
of the letters, stating that their admission
was irrelevant.
James j. Feather testified, this afternoon,
in the Dukes-Nutt murder trial, that after
Dukes and Lull had been separated, in the
formers room, he pushed Dukes into one
corner, when Dukes said ''he came in here
to whip me, and I'll shoot him." Feather
replied, ''he can't whip you now," but
Dukes drew his revolver and fired across
the room at Mutt, killing him. Mutt was
making no effort to draw a weapon. He
was standing at rest, with
his right arm on the mantel. Lewis Will
Jams, who also saw the shooting, corrobo-
rated Feather in the main points of his
evidence. Both witnesses, on cross exam
ination, became considerably confused,
the attorney for the defense showing thai
their testimony, in some of its features,
was in conflict with the statement they
made before the coroner when the inquest
was held. William Pickard, clerk in Spring
er's hardware store, testified on
the Friday preceding the Sunday.
when the shooting was done, that he had
sold Dukes 30 csliber Smith & Wesson
double acting revolver. Dukes selected it
with great care from a number Of others,
saying he wanted one that
was sure. couple of custom
ers happened to drop into the store at the
time, when Dukes concealed himself, say
ing he did not want everybody to know his
business. Some other evidence of COM
paaative unimportance was taken, after
which the court adjourned until morn
