In preparing this work we have been
very ably assisted by w. II. Bliss,
Esq. of Middlebury, Vermont The
work was begun with him in 1854, and
finds us still working together at its
close. His excellent Judgment as a law
yer and eminent talent as writer have
been constantly at command, and entered
largely into the warp and wool of the
book. We are also under much obliga-
ton to the Hon. Chauncey Smith of
Cambridge, Massachusetts, one of the
most eminent lawyers and clearest think
ers of the country. for valuable counsel
and advice.
We are also under special obligations
to the General Stud Book. published
by the Messrs. Weatherbee of London.
England, for information on remote
pedgrees, and other valuable historical
matter We have had occasion to criti-
else their record of several American
horses, that doubtless they copied from
American authorities, but as whole
their work appears to be very carefully
edited.
In Volume II. of the Morgan Register,
that is now very largely prepared for the
press, there will be hundreds of old-time
Morgan sires that do not appear in this
volume. The arrangement will be in
alphabetical order, and al! the horses in
this volume will be entered in that. and
proper reference made to the page on
which they appear in this. In many
cases later or more extended information
will appear of horses recorded in this
book. We shall also begin i'm Volume II.

as we understand it, the Arabian or
oriental system of registration. Only
the choicest of brood mares will appear
in this way, such as have proved most
valuable from their own quality or the
character of their produce. A careful
study of the first volume of the English
General Stud Book, edition of 1891,
has convinced us that there is no system
in which pedigrees can be so accurately
and concisely recorded, and so certainly
traced, as this. In the American system
of separate record there are certain

are endeavoring to obtain Information con-
cerning other British war vessels than the

merchant ships now being constructed in
England, but the writer says they act with
such caution that their detection is made
very difficult. The letter further says that
prior to the theft of the drawings of
the machinery of the Havock, appii-
cation was made to the Yarrow Shipbuild-

for information concerning the construction
of the boilers which were to be placed in the
new torpedo destroyer. This information

exploding the powder charge. The men
were called back to drill for the powder, and
in so doing, their steel drills ignited the
explosive.
Twenty tons or more of thick earth fell on
the laborers, while an equal quantity OF
earth was scattered in all directions. When
the men were extricated, half an hour later,
three We're dead and three were in critical
condition. The dead were mangled and
torn almost beyond recognition. The VIC
Tins were known only. by their numbers,
and the names Of the dead have not
yet been ascertained. OF the injured,
Michael Crefar, aged %, unmarried,
was the most seriously hurt Both legs and
arms are broken and body badly burned.
David Livingstone, aged sixty, severely
burned about head and shoulders, one leg
and one arm broken. The third injured man

Special to the Jersey City Nears.
TRENTON, April z, 1S94-Vice Chancellor
Bird has given an opinion in the case of
Charles T. Ware against the Supreme Sit
ting of the Order of Iron Hall. The suit
was brought by members of the endow-
ment order to compel Thomas p Curley,
the New Jersey Receiver, to pay to the Re
eeiver Of the State of Indiana, who is the
General Receiver, the sum of $4,000
collected by him from the New Jersey
members. In the opinion the Vice Chancel-
lor says that the great majority of the mem
bers of this order engaged in its enterprises
without thought of deception or intrigue,
and have entered into the enterprises from
the highest motive All they ask is to be
saved from the intrigues and Vaccinations
of others in whom they have confided. The
Receiver in Indiana represents not only the
creditors of tie Supreme Sitting of the Order
of Iron Hall itself, but he stands in its
stead Before he can pay he must receive,
and he has right to say "Giye and you
shall be given unto" The Vice Chancellor
concludes -s'I will advise an order direct
ing the Receiver in this State to account to
the Receiver in Indiana for all the moneys
which are now in or which shall hereafter
come into his hands, less the cost and ex-
penses allowed by the court, including the
cost of this application"

CLOSING OF THE POLLARD CASE.
Prayer of the Plaintiff For Judg-
ment In Her Favor.


WASHINGTON, April Z, 1s94.--At eleven
o'clock this morning Mr.. Calderon Carlisle
began to read in Judge Brad.eys court a
yoluminous prayer on behalf of the plaintiff
in the Pollard Breckenridge case. Major
Shelby followed with prayers for defendant,
and then argument was entered upon. There
were few spectators, and very little inter-
phase of the case. Neither Miss Pollard nor
Colonel Breckenridge was present during the
hearing
The Instructions which Mr.. Carlisle asked
the court to give to the jury in behalf of the
plaintiff in the Pollard -Breckinridge case,
set forth that the promise given was
such as to constitute bind,
ing contract; that the plaintiff had
married no one and had committed no breach
of that contract, and even if the assertions
made were true (which was denied) as to re-
lations sustained by the plaintiff with
other men, this would not invalidate
the contract. That the defendant
contention that the agreement of mar
riage between himself and the plaintiff
was not intended to be kept, but was
entered into for the purposes of deception,
must be sustained by a preponderanee OF
evidence in order to have weight with the
jury. That whether the defendant prom
ised marriage to the plaintiff in good faith
or not has no effect on the plaintiffs s
claim, as she received the promise in good
faith and performed her part of the agree
ment.
That if the jury find that the defendant
was secretly married on the 29th of April
last, and thereafter made a promise to
marry the plaintiff and by his breach
of contract SO made the plaintiff has
been injured pecuniarly, socially. or
otherwise SO as to effect her means of gain
ing a livelihood in the future, the jury must
bring in verdict for damages.

The States case is deve1ping slowly.
With the exception of the negso's evidence,
nothing connecting the defendants directly
with the murders has been brought out.

VICTORY AFTER TWO YEARS.
Electric Cars Now Run Past the
State House at Trenton.
Special to the Jersey Cttv Ne,cs.


TRENTON, April Z, 1894 The extension Of
a trolley road past the State Capitol to the
westerly part Of the city, was the occasion Of
much excitement here this afternoon. State
street, the princiapl business thoroughfare,
was crowded with people watching the
gang at work erecting poles and wires, and
the efforts of the police to arrest them and
bring the labor to STOP Some wealthy
people living along the line of
the extension are opposed to it
and they secured writ of
certiorari removing the ordinance under
which the electric railway company is work
ing to the Supreme Court for review, and
copies of the writ were served upon the COM
pany's officers, but they refused to desist and
the work of stringing and connecting the
wires went on. The police arrested Peter
Hurley, the Superintendent of the road, and
number of the workmen, but they were in
stantly bailed and returned to the scene of
operations
Public sentiment Is strongly in favor of
the Improvement, and the laborers at work
upon it were cheered by thousands OF specta-
tors, who at the same time jeered the police.
The wife of Millionaire Roebling undertook
at twelve o'clock last night, when the work
of putting up the poles began to pre-
vent the laborers from erecting one in
front of her mansion She called on the po-
lice and also summoned lawyers, but they
could do nothing for her until after day
light. Then she sent an attorney to Justice
Van Syokel. Of the Supreme Court, for the
writ of certiorari, and he granted it, but the
pole in front of the mansion was up.
At half-past ten o'clock this morning an
electric car was sent over the extension, and
10000 people, who were gathered in State
street, cheered and waved handkerchiefs
The car was loaded inside and out with
passengers, and every two minutes there
after cars were running, all of them packed
with passengers, who were taken over the
extension free of expense A half dozen
rich people have been opposing the establish
ment of this line for two years, and they
hope still to thwart its operation but unless
which it has been built is invalid, they can
not gain the victory.

LONDON, April Z, 1S94.-Concerning the
Cabinet meeting which was held yesterday
to discuss the political situation in view of
the defeat of the Government Thursday
vening by tine majority, the Times says
1t is understood that at yesterdays meet
ing of the Cabinet the discussion was de-
voted to anxious consideration respecting
the political outlook After the events of
the week the Ministers can no longer conceal
from themselves the fact that disaster may
overtake them at any moment
"The Radicals, feeling that dissolution
cannot long be delayed, will insist upon a
definite statement as to the Governments
policy in regard to the House of Lords Inas-
much as the decision OF the Government to
demand the whole time of the House on
Tuesday was taken with the full knowledge
that the step would evoke a public protest
from the Radicals, the belief is freely ex-
pressed in the lobby of the House of Com
mans that Lord Rosebery is riding for a

The Standard says the events of the
next week are looked forward to with pc
culiar interest, inasmuch as it is believed
thas the opposition could force crisis with

CORRUPTION FUND
Policemen Assessed By the
Republicans for Cam
paign Purposes.
NICE KIND OF REFORM
Some Democrats Refuse-Charges
Held Over the Heads of Police
men for Effect.

The Republican leaders have resortsd 10
the despicable trick of assessing policemen
S. each for the purpose of creating cor
ruption fund with which to carry on the
coming election Last week the First pre-
einct men were informed that they must
contribute S. each. Roundsman Hopkins
was appointed the collecting agent of the
night platoon. When he approached several
Democratic patrolmen and demanded the
assessment he met with rebuff.
'Who is this IS for9" three of them de-
manded.
''For the Republican party" Roundsman
Hopkins is quoted as replying.
The patrolmen were uncertain what to do.
With Republican Police Board at the
head of the department and Republican
captain, the situation was anything but
pleasant.

S5 is to go to the Democratic leaders for use
in the coming election, all right, but 1 am
- if will pay such an unjust assessment
aid the election of men who will chop of
my head at the very first opportunity"
1t is understood that pending the collection
of the assessment, charges of trivial nature
against Democratic members of the depart
ment have been held over their heads to
compel them to pay the amount demanded Of
them
1t is also said that in a certainsprecincts
down town the captain is withholding charges
against Democratic officers. The object is to
deprive Superintendent Smith of the power
of acting upon them, the captain believing
Smith will be ousted in few days. The
charges will then be submitted to Chief
Murphy. 1t happens. singularly enough, that
the charges withheld are against Democratic
policemen and against TWO have refused to
