The New York Ccntrars New Bonds.

The New York CcntraPs New Bonds.
The Central Railroad of New York has
long been regarded as one of the richest
and most prosperous roads in the country;
but its prosperity, it seems, was not as
great as the public was led to believe.
The allegation is that it has been paying
an per cent. dividend while it was earn
ing only 4. The result OF this policy was
seen last Friday when it was announced
that the directors had authorized the issue
of SIS, OOO, 600 of debenture certificates.
In this connection it is worthy of notice
that the statements of railway di-
rectors and officials are not always
to be relied on in matters pertaining to
roads. A little more than month ago
there were reports that it was the purpose
of the directors of the Central to issue OBJ
legations of some kind, but the directors,
including Er. Vanderbilt, denied that
there were any truth in them. In an in
terview on Aug. Is last, published in the
New York Tribune, Mr. Vanderbilt said:
'These stories arc all bosh; there is not
word of truth in them. They were started
six or eight months ago, and are no more
true now than they were then. But what
is the use of my denying them! l am
tired of denying stories about the Central
Road that any one in Wall street may
cOncOct. 1t seems impossible to make a
statement broad and general enough TO
prevent an immediate repetition of the
story in some other form. don't think
it worth my while to be doing nothing but
denying Wall street rumOrs."
1t is hardly probable that Mr.. Wander
bilt did not know at that time that the
debenture certificates were to be issued.
On the announcement Of the action of the
company Central shares began to sell
pretty freely. OF course the road is in no
trouble, but if it can only pay a per
cent. dividend its stock isn't worth as
much as it has been selling for.

1t is stated that Judge Gresham was
greatly puzzled TO know why President
Arthur insisted that he Gresham should
take the Treasury portfolio after McCul-

fear the President thought these three
about the only honest men in his party,
and il Gresham had persisted in refusing
the place the country would have been in
the middle Of a fix.

Blaine has no old guard to snatch him from
the laws of defeat at the last moment, nor mas
he a weak, yacillating opponent who is likely
to abandon the position of his party at vital
moment. Unless the fortunes of Blaine are
rescued by some incredible device of fraud
and corruption, or by some Incredible freak
of popular folly and infatuation, his defeat is

QUEBEC, May s.-Following is the Of
fetal report of the third officer of the
State Of Florida:
cleft New York on the 18th of April
with about l67 passengers and crew and
full general cargo. All went well until
the night of the 18th at 1880, when we
came in collision with the bark Pom
ema, OF Chatham, n. b., Captain
Hetburn. Both ships went down al
most instantly and out of the steamers
passengers and crew only forty-four, in

cape in boats, and out of the bark's crew
OF fifteen only the captain and two
seamen were saved. Next morning the
bark was observed bottom up. The
survivors, after being thirty-fve hours
in the boats without food or
water, were rescued by the Norwegian
bark Theresa of Christania, from that
port bound to Quebec. On the 22d twen-
ty-iour of them were transferred on board
the ship Louisa of and from Cardiff for
Quebec, where they remained until the
9th of May, when taken on board the Tita-
MIA for Quebec. 1t is believed 1875 lives
