dian Pacific.
BosToN. March S.-The Boston & Maine
Railroad Company is to begin work at
once upon a grain elevator of a million
bushels capacity on the old Eastern rail
road wharf at East Boston. 1t is thought
the Canadian Pacific may have direct
interest in the elevator
For many years past it has been the
expectation that grain elevation would
be erected upon the Mystic dock proper
ty OF the Boston & Maine. In fact, be-
fore the Lowell was leased to the Boston
& Maine, plans had been prepared for
the erection of such structure, but
owing to the inability of the Lowell to
secure the cooperation of its northern
connections, the scheme failed of reali-
cation, and a simple transfer elevator
has been hitherto utilized to transfer
grain from cars to vessels.
Since the Maine leased the Lowell,
there has been the expectation that the
stronger concern would take up the
scheme, but until the last few days moth
ing has been actually decided. The
great rush of grain which the Boston d
Maine has been receiving, both from it's
Canadian Pacific connection and via the
Poughkeepsie Bridge and Central Massa-
chusetts, has at last aroused the manage
ment of the Boston & Maine to the ur-
gent necessity for immediate action.
The fact that Canadian Pacific officials
. were here in consultation with Boston &
Maine people about THE time it was de
cided to, build the elevator, gives rise tto
i the suspicion that the Canadian Pacific
may have direct interest in the eleva-
tor; anyway, they cannot but have an in
direct interest, as it will greatly facilitate
the handling of the immense quantities
of grain which that road can, and doubt
less will, bring here if proper facilities
are provided at this port.
The new elevator cannot but add large
~ to the revenues of the Boston g. Maine
system and at the same time aid in devel-
oping the commerce of Boston with for
eign ports.

The reverse side Two other regiments had

to let the men retreat by scattering.

The Eighty-third lost 46 killed, 81 wounded
and so missing The missing included
some killed and many wounded.
The regiment had a respite from fighting
for three days. On the fourth day, after
Gaines Mill, on July l, it was again called
upon for desperate duty. This was at NAL
vern Hill. When the battle began the
Eighty third was out of the line OF fight

was 81. Campbell had been wounded az

and SO it's commanding officer had been
shot down for the fourth time.
At Antietam the Eighty-thi escaped
loss; at Fredericksburg it charged up to
the stone wall to the relief of the storming
column, very daring movement that cost
but few men, however. Charlottesville
was another lucky field for the Eighty
third, but at Gettysburg it found place
of honor at Little Round Top, on july z.
Col Strong Vincent, who had succeeded
McLane in the colonelcy, led the brigade Oh
which his regiment formed part, and as
sumed the responsibility of taking it upon
Round Top when that position was about
to fall into the hands of the Confederates.
The Eighty-thir was posted in the vale
between Round Top and Little Round Top,

Hood to reach the coveted hill. In that
vale took place some of the deadliest light

lofty rock to encourage his troops, and so

CoNcoRD,N N. H., March S.-The supreme
court has filed its opinion in the case OF
Jones and others against the Concord d
Montreal railroad, in which the plaintiffs
sought an injunction against the issue of
new stock to be distributed to, all classes
of stockholders in the Concord & Mon
treal railroad. The court holds the cor
poration has the right to increase its
stock as voted and that the new stock
must be distributed to all classes as con-
templated by the vote already passed.
While the court sustains the right of the
corporation to issue this new stock and
establishes the law as claimed by Q
majority of the stockholders; that is,
that the new stock must be distributed
to all classes of stockholders in proper
ton to their ownership of stock, it holds
that the stock cannot be issued under
the vote already passed on the ground
that the notice for the meeting was in
sufficient.
