How Ward Caught yish.

President Fish of the exploded Marine bank
of New York says of Ward:
Within the past several months Mr.. Ward
has represented to me that he had q confden-
tial understanding by which he furnished to the
government the supplies I supposed that
through the Grant family, or the friends of the
Grants, he might have some such contracts
He said it would be good thing to get con-
tracts for government supplies, and mentioned
Elkins and Chaffee, and thought they were q
portion of the scheme and that their friend
chip and knowledge had been Of advantage to
Ward as the partner Of Mr. Chaffee's son law
and of Gen. Grants sou. am now satisfied
the whole thing was an invention and . myth.
do not believe he had any kind OF contract. I
don't suppose now Gen. Grant knew anything
about it. But before these disclosuresI did
think that Grant or Grants friends might have
given Mr. Ward the opportunity. MIR. Ward
said to me on at least one occasion thatI now
saw the advisability of his having brought the
Grants into business relations with us. He re-
ferred to the matter OF these confidential con-
tracts. a., No.. = -.

Important Supreme Court Decision.

The supreme court Of Minnesota rendered
decision in the case of the Red River i Lake Of
the Woods rsilroad company Vs. Andrew Sure,
from Polk county. The railroad company
built its line through the farm Of Sture-16O
acres-and damages were asked for the right
of way. Sture appealed to the Polk county
court, and q decision WAS rendered in his favor
awarding him the damages claimed. The rail-
road company appealed to the supreme court,
and sat up the plea that Sture had no right to
object to railroad through his land, as he had
become possessed of it through the United
States homestead law. The company. claimed
that under the United States laws Of 1865,
highways could be constructed or opened
through such lands; it was also asserted that
the Polk county jury had rendered verdict in
favor of Adam Sture, instead Of Andrew Sture,
and that papers in the case, lost from the files,
were replaced by the court with copies. All
these objections were oyerruled, and the de-
cision OF the Polk county court was affirmed
This decision is in direct opposition to de-
cisions OF other supreme courts It has been
held that, until the possessor Of the land re-
ceived patent, he has no right 10 prevent the
constructions Of railroads through his land:
that the mere entering OF the land under the;
Homestead act did not complete his title to
ownership Judge Mitchell holds that home

Great failures are produced by grea

= Great failures are produced by great
indebtedness. The saying is attributed
to Andrew Jackson that "thoss who
trade on borrowed capital ought to
FAIL" The authorship has been denied
but still 1t has grain Of truth. If there
were no debts there would be no fail
nres; and it might be added, by vast
decrease in business. Credit in these
days is the Life of trade, but there is
such thing, and very common tits, to
push credits to the extreme. Hence
the smach-ups and misery everywhere.

4 Gen. Grants misfortunes in business
have excited public sympathy. 1t
was feared that his whole fortune had
been swallowed in the maelstrom Of
speculation, but it is now understood
that the quarter Of a million dollars
contributed to him as q gift by his
friends is in the hands of trustees and
cannot be touched by the calamity.
But vast majority Of his friends re-
gret that he allowed himself to be
drawn into hazardous business ventures
instead of retiring upon his well earned
honors and abundant fortune. When
Washington ended his public life he
retired to Mount Vernon, scarcely less
celebrated then the beautiful city that
bears his name; Jefferson retired
TO Monticello; the AdaInses
to Quincy; jackson to "the Hermitage; !;
Van Buren, to Undertook; Buchanan
to Wheatland; Hayes to Fremont and
all the other exp Presidents to homes
less celebrated, but still seats Of digni-
fled retirement and honor, which be-
came resorts for troops Of personal
friends and objects Of interest to the
great body Of their country men. Cen
8eral Grant cannot be criticised for not
wishing to return to Galena, for that,

j. streator Of ILL.,, was temporary chairman.
Committees on credentials, permanent organ
ization and resolutions were appointed, one
from each state The call Of the states showed
sixteen states represented The Presi-
dent said. The cause Of the smallness of the
convention was that many of its members were
too poor to pay their fare, and because monop-
olistic railroads refused to give them the same
rates which would be given delegates to other
conventions. The speaker said that all the
platform he wanted was, ssWe oppose all
monopoles, we believe all men are created
free and equal, and we believe in Gen. Benja-
min F. Butler. After the adoption Of the plat
form, which is about the same as usual. the
