Bolitho, who did absolutely TNthing at Staten
island, scored 81. The inning OF the English was
undoubtedly one Of the most brilliant displays of
batting ever witnessed in Detroit. A score of 2s3
would not be considered remarkably high in
England but it IS rarely that such figures are made
II this country. The Peninsula men fell all to
pieces whom opposed 10 the bowling of Bruen and

The whole fifteen only scored 60 and conseo uently

the true version OF the story from which
the garbled account had been trst evolved.
Gen. Mcclellan sent tor the President in
critical hour. and he responded by
starting at once. They had no sooner

headquarters than Secretary stanton ap-
prOacned Gen. Mcclellan and brusquely

"Uh, you sill do nothing for me,' he

enemy's lines. He only told the soldier
who be was to convince him that mis-
word would be obeyed, and when told
that time was precious, as the distant
outposts must yet be visited, he arose re-
luctantly and entered the ambulance.

A Strange Story Of an Engineers Life

From ne Erening Tslegram.

The Iron Mountain railroad, ofMissouri,
through ex-Judge S. S. Blake, this morn
ing paid large sum of money 70 Mrs.
Ellen Fitzgerald, OF Brooklyn, for having
caused the death OF her son several years
ago. The story Of the case is an interest
ing one, and illustrates the fact that truth
Is stranger than fiction. 1t appears that
John Fitzgerald, who was well known in
political circlel IN Brooklyn, enlisted at
the outbreak OF the war. Amer serving
in several regiments he returned home.
He only remained short time, when he
again went away. For two years he cor
responded regularly; then all track
Of him was lost Last fall Mrs.
Fitzgerald learned that while employed
as an engineer on the Iron Noun
tain road be, on April 28, 1883. had been
killed through his en- zine going through a
bridge near Helena, Ark. Mrs. Fitz-
gerald, Ia company with her sister, Mrs.
Il. NoOnan, went on to Missouri. whore
she learned that her son had been known
there, also, as William Fitzgerald and
under that name had married a widow,
Mrs. Agnes Foreman, who had daugh-
ter by her former husband. She had.
however, died, aud when Fitzgerald was
killed the step-daughter, Miss Lucy A.
Foreman, brought suit against the COM
pauy, who settled with her also for a large
sum. Mrs. Fitzgerald succeeded I'm prov
ing. principally through sheriff Farley, OF
Brooklyn. that though the name William
was on his tombstone, that the dead man
wis her son John, and In consequence the
COMPANY settled with her. through eX-
Judge Blake, into whose hands she had
placed her case.

The "Law Reports" OF Yesterday give
the case OF Bridger vs.. Savage, in the
High Court OF Appeal. The result is TO
make only au actual wager between two
commission agents, or between COM
mission agent and another principal,
yoidable at the option OF the loser. Lord
Justice Bowen remarks: "rhe original
contract in betting is not an Illegal one,
but merely one which Is VOID. II the per-
son who has betted pays his bet he valves
the bOueht which the statute has given
hin, and cOnfers good title TO the money
in the person 20 whom he pays 1t. There
fore, when the bet is paid the transaction
Is completed, and when paid To the agent
it IS good payment 10 his principal"
The result OF the case is TO establish the
position Of betting agents. 20 give princi-
pals aud agents legal rights and habih-
ties toward each other, and to make Il
clear that the result of the statutory law
is 10 discourage the practice and pursuit
Of betting
