More About Bartholomew.

More About BaFGmOAOm0"
 HARTFORD, Sept. 23.-Personally MT. Bar tholomew gave one the impression that he was a very unobtrusive man, but his long, sallow face, quick step, piercing eyes and large head instantly convinced people that he was shrewd business man. And in commercial circles throughout New Eng land, New York and the western and south ern States he was regarded as shrewd fnan- cier. His simple habits gave rise to the inn pression that he was parsimonious. It was a well known fact that when called on busl- ness out of town he would often carry with him a bag containing sufficient quantity of eatables to last him for 8 day or two, He preferred doing this to paying for a substantial meal at hotel or restaurant His house in Hartford was an old-fashioned one on Prospect street.
 The Hartford Post gives the following sketch of Bartholomew. He is seventy years old, and since 1882, period of fifty l four years, has been in business here. MT. Robert Watkinson was his first employer, and subsequently, young Bart holomew was | taken into partnership. In the Black Friday l days of 1857 the Bank of Ha1tfo I'd County | went under and he was appointed it's receiv l CT, He succeeded n insulting new life in it
 and when it resumed it's place in financial ! circles, it became known as the Am eIican bank. He became it's president and held the | position until 1871.
 In 1855 he was appointed trustee under
 the mortgage of the Hartford, Providence | and Fishkill railroad (now part of the New | York and New England) He held the place
 for twenty years and the management has | always been commended. The bonds rose above par and the property was well main 1 tained In 1858 he became with s. J. Tilden and others a director in the Chicago and | Northwestern railroad and was in it's direc- ton in 1s67 In 1868 he was made direc- tor in the Connecticut Western road and its vice president in 1872 holding office until it's downfall and reorganization. He was president and receiver of the Boston, | Hartford and Erie road. He has been interested in the Richmond and Ale
 ghany road and in the New Jersey South ern He was made trustee of the Irdianap- | oils and Cincinnati railroad in 1858. He was

Hubbard & Farmer, of this city, issue a public card stating that they never owned nor negotiated any of Bartholomew's paper and never had any business relations with him of any kind.
 The embarrassment of E. s. Tyler & Co.,, coal dealers, is not due to endorsement for MT. Bartholomew, but to the Plunkett mat ter. No compromise has yet been effected. At least fifty cents on dollar is expected. The firm have very large business-half 8 million or more annually. There will be nothing done for several days.
 The report that the Connecticut River bank holds $200, 900 of the Schuyler paper with Bartholomew's endorsement is incorrect. That bank, it is officially stated, does not hold one fourth part of that sum and that it has collaterals to more than cover it's dis counts.
 The Schuyler Electric Light company has asked time that they may realize on their assets before acting with regard to the company's paper which has Bartholomew's endorsement. The assets of the company it's officers say are far in excess of it's lia- bilities.
 The two receivers appointed must yet qualify in $250, ,000 bonds each.

MT. Field And MT. Bartholomew.

NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-The announcement
 that Cyrus W. Field is brother-ln. law of
 MT. Bartholomew gave rise to some specula-
 tion as to why MT. Field did not keep Bar
 tholomew out of his embarrassment. The
 fact is Mr. Field is not a brother-in-law of
 MT. Bartholomew. The claim of relation
 ship the latter has on MT. Field is that Mrs.
 Bartholomew and Mrs. Field are cousins.
 MT. Field admits that he was in Hartford on
 Monday last and had an interview with Bar
 tholomew. "While have my own impres-
 sion, cannot tell you anything about the
 matter at all," added MT. Field. 'I wish it
 distinctly stated, in view of what I have read in a morning paper, that never had a financial transaction with Bartholomew in my life. It is an unfortunate affair, indeed. Bartholomew was man of high standing" :" The reporter subsequently met gentleman who was intimate with Bartholomew and acquainted with MT. Field. He said "When Bartholomew saw the storm coming he sent for MT. Field and asked him l to come to his assistance. MT. Field on account of the relationship of Mrs. Field and l Mrs. Bartholomew principally, and seconda- rily urged by his belief that the president of the Charter Oak company was an honorable
 man, was predisposed to give his check to Bartholomew for any amount needed, but he went to Hartford and found it would take six months or year to unravel the tangle that Bartholomew had got himself into and he decided otherwise" MT. Field is reported as saying: Bartholomew, if you can show me that you are solvent you can have my check for whatever sum you need" Bar tholomew could not tell how he stood and the result of hurried investigation of his affairs only made matters appear worse for Bartholomew.
 Mir. &. B. Schuyler, who founded the Schuyler Electric Light company and who is | at present one of it's directors, said: tI would
 not be more surprised if were to see g
 thunder clap come out of clear sky, to use
 hackneyed expression, than was to-day when heard about MT. Bartholomew. W. do not know yet what our losses are. If they

 The Union Pacific began by cutting Its passenger rates nearly in two, and the other roads followed suit, putting hrst.class fires from the Pacific coast to the Missouri river down to $50 and third class to S25. The roads east of Missouri have of course reduced the price of their through tickets, but they do not share in the cut Freight rates have been reduced soTe and will probably go lower.
