n eiC Jersey Central.

New YORK, May 1.-THE Commercial
Advertiser says at the annual meeting of
the Jersey Central stockholders to-day, the
Garrett Gowen interest voted upon 14,5OO,-
600, out of 15,500,000 stock, so of course
all question as to the lease is removed. The
board of directors as now standing is:
Franklin B. Gowen, Z. G. Knight, Sidney
Shepard, Robt. Garrett, Saml. Stein, Theo
Randolph, John Kean, Henry S. Little, j.
Kennedy iced. The policy of the Jersey
Central will be completely changed. One
of the very best innovations will be an at
tempt to change the present agreement
between the Long Branch road and
the Pennsylvania. The arrangement
was made by Judge Latkrop
just before he died. It has not been salts
factory to the New Jersey Central people.
Gowen, it is said, has pledged himself to
look into the matter, and if the contract
can be broken to break it, but the Pennsyl-
vania company generally make bargins
in such way that they cannot be broaken
unless by the Pennsylvania railroad. At
all events the Long Branch road promises
to open as gentle skirmish the now per-
ennial war that shortly will be Instituted
between the new combination trunk line,
and the Pennsylvania line. Little will be
reelected president of the Central, and it
is believed that Governs friends are talk
ing of having his salary raised from $751;
600 to $4,000 year. The board of di
rectors submitted statement of the earn
ings under the receiver for the calender
year ending December 81, 1882.

The IVdferICUlTS.

The decline in the river continues with
undated emphasis. Pretty soon at the
rate of fall daily witnessed shoals and
quicksands will become visible, and navi-
cation become one of the lost arts. How
ever, craftsmen still continue to come and
depart from st. Paul, and will doubtless so
continue, even if the decline follows suit.
The "Josie" of the Diamond 10 line, and
''War Eagle" of the Saints line both passed
Dubuque Thursday, and La Crosse yester-
day. They will be here this evening or to-
night to return tomorrow.
The Union line iron steamship H. J..
Jewett Wednesday completed the fastest
trip on record, between Buffalo and Mil
waukee, making the run, distance of 900
miles, in two days and seventeen hours.
She left Buffalo Sunday evening and ar
rived at Milwaukee Wednesday morning,
not singls stop being made, and she was
only checked down once, as she entered the

The Funeral Services Yesterday-Address
By Rev. Father Stanley.

The Funeral Services Observation-Disclosures
Bv Rev. Father Stanley.
Yesterday afternoon the remains of the
late G.. G. Caldwell we're removed from the
undertaking rooms of Messrs Mccarthy g.
Donnelly to the CATHEDRAL, where religious
ceremonies were held over them. The
pail bearers were R. T. O'Connor, R. w.
Bell, Martin Delaney, Patrick Connolly,
D. Ahern and ]. G. Mccarthy. At the
cathedral the remains were placed before
the altar and Father Stanley
delivered short but pointed sermon of
which the following is pretty fair syn
opsis:
IT is proper that should explain why
the Catholic burial service has just been
read over the remains of one who during
his life was known not to be a member of
the Catholic church. The deceased real
lied on his death bed that he had an i'm
mortal soul to save, and he repeatedly ex-
pressed a desire to be received into the
church. His request was, of course,
granted, and few hours before his death
he had the happiness of receiving bap-
tism from Catholic priest.
It would be wrong for me not to take
dohdALdkO VI lulS SOIOLnA OCCdSlOA W
bring before you the solemn lessons death
teaches. Ny duty as priest is, not to
speak of the good or evil deeds of the de-
ceased, but to strive to save the souls of
the living. 1t matters not to US now what
may have been his record. He is in the
hands of the living God who is his maker
and his Judge. But the living have
duties to learn and to perform that they

end t. which each one of US must come.
at is appointed unto men to die" and the
apostle assures us that after death comes
judgment. The actions which we have
performed and which we have caused
or occas1oned others to perform shall be
judged after death by One who knows and
sees all things, and eternal damna-
ton is the lot of the sinnerand
eternal happiness belongs only to Gods
faithful servants. These truths are trite,
but how often are they not practically for
gotten? How many of you ever think of
them seriously? How different would the
lives of many be if they realized that they
must die and be punished for sin? To
work for the souls salvation is the most
important duty of each one. Let
each one here examine himself as to
what he has heretofore done
in preparation for the time when he must
stand in the presence of God to render an
account of his actions, and if the past has
been, and in some instances 1 fear it has,
spent in Indifference or, what is worse, in
direct violation of Gods holy law, let there
be a change from this instant, and an
amendment of life will rob death of its
terrors and prepare the way to happy
hereafter.
At the conclusion of Father Shanley's
remarks the remains were removed to the
house and thence to the cemetery.

The Biz HORN HrecE.

Bis narck Tribune: The steamer Big
Horn, which left here on April 90 last,
loaded with 265 tons of assorted merchan-
disc, consigned to Montana merchants,
struck a snag on the morning of May s,
five miles below Poplar river, causing her
to sink in five minutes. The boat and
cargo are reported total loss, but no lives
were lost. The steamer Big Horn was
owned by the Missouri River Transporta-
ton company. She was built in Pittsburg,
Pa, and came out in the fall of 1876; was
rebuilt at Yankton in 1882 and had under
gone thorough repair previous to leaving.
She was valued at $4,000. There was no
insurance on the steamer, but her cargo
was fully insured.
Commodore Coulson and Superintend-
mt Marratta are now in st. Paul to pro-
cure steamer to supply the place of the
Big Horn.

The DiferentiaI Passenger Rates.

New YORK, May 1.-THE general pas
senger agents of the trunk lines, compris-
ing joint executive committee, met again
to-day. The first business taken up was
the adjustment of differential fares under
the award of the percentages of Thursday.
These awards were upon the business be-
tween the old differential fare points alone.
No new points have, as yet, been estab-
ished in the extended territory west of
Chicago and st. Louis, although the mat
ter has been discussed several times. The
new schedule of rates will go into effect
May Is. According to the assistant commits
sioners, there has been no material change
in the existing rates and no reduction
made below the lowest fares now in force.
The rates on several roads, however, have
been reduced, it having been shown to the
satisfaction of the committee that they
we're entitled to the advantage thus gained.
At the afternoon session the question of
the rate cutting in San Francisco was dis
cussed. Representatives were present
from the Texas & Pacific, Chicago, Burling-
ton & Quincy, Central Pacific, Hannibal &
st. 10, and Chicago q Northwestern rail
roads. The proposition that an
arbitrator should be appointed who
should decide the disputes which have
arisen or may arise between the agents of
Eastern railroads in San Francisco and
which have caused the present difficulty,
met with general favor. No decided
action was taken, however, and the matter
was laid over for final settlement until to-
morrow. Meanwhile additional informa-
ton regarding the details of the so-caIled
war will be presented the committee This
method at present seems to be the only
manner of settling differences liable to
arise at any time between the agents of
Eastern Companies competing for east
bound passenger traffic.

Missouri river to Pueblo, was omitted
from the Missouri river joint rate sheet
west bound) for May. The rate should be
$50, the same as to Denver and Colorado
Springs.
The number of emigrants arriving yes
terday morning numbered fully $50. lThe
morning trains brought 80 for Winnipeg
and points on the Northern Pacific, while
the Omaha train, which arrived at 2:15 in
The afternoon, had two car loads of emil
grants fresh from Europe, consigned to
the Manitoba road.
The Hess Acme Opera troupe leaves this
city Sunday night for Winnipeg over the
Manitoba line. The sleepers ''Selkirk''and
Mile Lacs," with two baggage cars, have
been placed at the disposal of the compa-
ny, which will make its entree into the
Queens dominions with colors flying and
il style of unprecedented magnifcence.
II. j. Tooker, agent at Manitoba for the
--Iichigan Central and Credit Valley rail
roads, lately made the run from Toronto
80 Winnipeg at speed, all things consid
cred, that is somewhat remarkable. He
eft Toronto at noon, May 3, with train
and thirty-one of freight, and arrived in
Winnipeg at 3:45 p. M, May 8. The
5;c.in came overthe Credit Valley and Mich
igan Central to iChicago, over the Chi
cago & Northwestern and Chicago, st.
Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha to st. Paul, to
itJ place of destination over the Manitoba.
That long and hazardous trip was made
without delays accident or incident, and
1Lr. Tooker very properly thinks that his
lob" was conducted and completed in a
tanner that no man can despise.
The Northern Pacific has issued what
might very properly be termed "literary
brochure" though it comes to the public
under the less pretentious but more eupho-
NOUS title agents Manual" 1t is the
result of the combined efforts of Passen-
ger Agent Barnes and Emigration Agent
Groat, and contains an infinite amount of
information, as also much good advice.
Lhe latter under the caption of "Hints to
Travellers" Besides it is illustrated with
maps of the route to the Pacific, and pro-
fusely Illuminated with original and an
tique cuts of scenery on Yellowstone
lake, in the grand canyon, at the bee hive
geyser, etc., also containing brief history
of stations on the road and its branches.
The ''hints to Travellers" eighteen in num-
Der, will pass into history as apothegms of
terseness, appropriateness and value. The
book will be greatly in demand, and SUP
ply long felt want.

Charles G. Roberts, respondent, VS.. the
Mazeppa Mill company, appellant.
Syllabus-The plaintiff sold to the de-
PENDANT 5000 bushels of wheat to be deliv-
cred at the defendants mill. 1t was IN
derstood by both parties that the wheat
had to be transported by team distance
of twelve miles.
Held, That plaintiff was not required to
deliver or offer to deliver the whole
amount in one lot at one time, such mode
of delivery not having been in the minds
of the parties, and not being reasonably
practicable in view of the character and
situation of the property.
HeltGlso, That defendant having after a
part of the grain was delivered refused to
receive any more of it upon the ground
that the time within which by the terms of
the contract it was refused to be delivered
had expired, such refusal amounted to a
waiver on the part of any subsequent ten
der or offer to deliver by plaintiff.
Also, That under the evidence in the case
the question whether reasonable time for
delivery Of the property had expired was a
question for the going under the rule es-
tablished by this court in Cochran vs.. To-
hen, IL Minnesota, and other cases cited.
Order denying new trial affirmed.
