Latest Regarding the Roads Finan-
 cIal Condit1on-Judge Nelson Reserves
 His DecfsiOn-A Farther Hearing.
 Henry A. Brsssey of London, member of Parliament, holder of the second mortgage bonds of the company, petitioned through Simeon B. Baldwin as his attorney for the appointment of 8 receiver. He alleged a large floating debt; that the company cannot pay it's interest, due January l; and that the contracting roads to which the New England is indebted are liable to attach it; and for these and other reasons he thinks a receiver necessary. The company in their answer admit the allegations and show that the bal snces due other lines amount to $266, 1882 31.
 Soon after the directors returned to Boston application was made to Judge Nelson of the United States court for that district for de- cree confirmatory of that issued by Judge shipman at Hartford. He peremptor fly refused to grant it without a full hearing. In the United States circuit court Tuesday eve ming Jud ge Nelson reserved his decision in order that the obisetors may have an opportunity for peti tioning Judge Shipman of Hartford to re- yoke his decree appointing 8 receiver. If, he said, Judge Shipman had granted the peti tion after a careful hearing of both sides, he should probably have confirmed his decision but as only one side had represented-its case confirmation of the decree should be delayed until the other parties in interest had been heard by Judge Shipman. He said the facts brought out during the hearing would seem to indicate that the directors were the real petitioners rather than Mir. Brassey. The State, which is one of the largest bondholders, objected to the appointment of 8 receiver. I-S1 lad f0lI T,o favor-Messrs. Clark, Higginson, Nickerson, Robinson and Kingsbury; opposed-Messrs.

Oc- cupied with their blithesome chat they drove On to the Wabash track, but none of them crossed 1t. The lightning express belated by the snow storm and making up lost time struck the horses and the sleigh without 8 moments warning. The horses were thrown to one side. Frank Long was killed on the spot. William Rohrs died by the roadside twenty minutes latsr Henry Arps was badly bruised, but is still living. The two other young men escaped unhurt. Long was only twenty-four years old and Rohrs but twenty-seven. Both were recent. ly married. The grief of their wives is ter. rible. The event has made to day gloomy one in Napoleon.

Plans for the Relief of Greeley.
 WAsH1sGToN, Jan. 2.-The joint army and navy commission to suggest plan for the Greeley relief expedition of 1881 met at the Navy department to-day. Captain Tyson, who accompanied the Polaris expedition, outlined carefully prepared plan based on the idea of sending three hundred ton steamer manned by thirty men to sail in June, stopping at Cape York and other points where it may be possible to obtain tidings of Greeley, thence to proceed to Smith Sound, whence the expedition should continue in whaleboats until Greeley was found or Lady Franklin bay reached. Gap tain Tyson thought that Greeley would be found at Lifeboat Cove and that he has not suffered unusual deprivations. Eneign H. J. Hunt, of the navy. one of the officers of the Rodgers on her expedition in search of the Jeannette, followed Captain Tyson and made some interesting suggestions and read detailed plan for the proposed expedition.
