THE CHICAGO DALY TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 8, 1872. 11 —_——— “OLD SHADY.” he Man Who Saved The Rapubli- can Party and the Country. - - ‘ank Lumbard Compelled to See the Ceniral Commit!ee. _r $600 Still Due Him for Services During the Campaign. The laborer is worthy of his hire. There 1510 subt of it ; the Scripture says 8o, and of corse istrue. The manthat follows the plow is otitled to his pay; the sailor that plows the espisentitled tohis pay; the actor that amuses public—John Dillon just es well as Nifsson is entitled to pay, and surely the man who ___out hie throat, and thethroatsof three her gentlerren for the benefit of his country, 20ugh he does reduce “music moody food” to ‘mercenary standard, has a claim o compensa- on. And here we get to the introduction of this ower true tale.” We would gently warn the eader in advance that it is o pathetic story, and 3 draw tears from the eyes, and sighs from © bosom, before the cold conclusion is reached. iverybody remembers that not very long sinca ere wag an election ; that there were two par- ; two seta of candidates; two sets of seskers who went howling sll over the conn- ry, and two—no, beg pardon—only one set of ausicians. At the beginning of the campaign was some doubt as to which side would be ortunate enough to secure their services, a8 y announced that they had the result 1tkeir hands, or, to be anatomically exact, in Jeir throats, in the liquid, murmuring sounds * "y send forth at so much a night. The Be- ublican party was rich, wealthy; had the spoils £ office, and all that sort of thing (for farther articulars see campaign documents), at its com- 2and, and those who hung on the brink of un- ertainty,—oh, how many thousands there were 4 the beginning of the campaign,—attracted by he magnet of gain, were seduced into its ser- . The Liberal party, on the other hand, was noor but honest;" it travelled on its poverty nd its viriue and Civil Service Reform, and of ourse, for want of the lubricating material, ag sch as for any other reason, it went to—well ¢didn’t win, that’sall. The result was a8 might ~-been expected ; the Republican party, en- saged these musicians, four of them comprising what i known in musical circles a8 a quartette. ry quartette has a name, and 8o had this; it yas familiarly known as Frank Lumbard’s. ‘Who has not heard of Frank Lumbard ? His 1ame is familiar a8 household words, and his ‘oice and the united yoices of himselt and his somrades were heard far and near, beneath the Ay and luxuriant folisge of summer, out in woods beside the ripgling brook, with the ure canopy of heaven above them, and in the saloons of Bridgeport, in rooms filled with suffo- :ating smoke, and the odor of bad whiskey and r._ But whether by the mountain side, or on she broad prairie, or in the saloon, they sang ith vigor if not with taste. Why not? The sountry was at stake. 1If they did not Eipe their “ tunefnl Iyres,” General Granfwould not be —elected; the Republican party womld be sonsigned to the dogs, and the country would %6 in & gimilar Slrefliumant. So they thought, nd, thinking thus, they travelled everywhere, an railroad cars, in carriages, in country wagons, d occasionally on their legs; bat not more uently than they could possibly avoid, 28 salling nmdang‘ to impair their vocal argans, Thus they travelled by day and by night, sxposed to danger in multiplied forms, and, worse than all, their lot was often cast in desolate ocalities, where temperance laws were enforced ith_horried impartislity. Travelling was ex- seneive ; it took np time, ran away_with money, _1d wore out shoss. These were evils incidental o the work of the campaign, but ae thought of their country sustained these aatriotic musicians, and, when their spirits were agging and their throats parch ‘hirst, nerved them, %> continued effort. In ad- lition to the noblc 4dd mspiring idea that they to be the eaviors of the Bepublic, they con- soled themselves still further with the thonght * t when the contest had closed, and the coun- 'y was actually saved by their exertions, they would meet with their full reward, and that the Republican Central Committee, in its exuber- of joy, would overflow with gratituds, and & gréenbacks womd flow into their deploted exchequers with s glensmsity equal to the great- ness and glory of the party. But alas !—here the reader will please pre, ais handkerchief, and get ready to heave sig) 2las for the ingratitnde of Bepublics, of Repub- lican. £Arfins of Bepublican Central Committees, of individual Hepublicans. Tears and_heavy groning are in order here ; the pathetic is com- ;; the sorrowful is nearsat hand, and the of human kindness should flow now, if it never flowed before. Turn on the faucet. The canvass closed, the day of election came and went, and General Grant was elscwd!,hhy the music dispensed by the Lumbards. 9 city, county, and State were also carried by the ssme wotent influence. The country was saved, the Btate was saved, the county was saved, the city was saved. All anxiety about the country, the State, the connty, and the city was then need- ' They were emphatically emazhmd the Lumbards, bereft of that work, and their occn- sation having gone, fell b: upon the only nopo left thom—s doraid hope it i truo, bt ahope—of recelvin, C1 com] ation applied to the Central Committes, but the Committes, with a hard heart, turned its back upon the sup- pliants. In vain did they represent that they saved the country, that they travelled 50,000 miles in doing 80 ; invain did they plead thal Dick Oglesby had told them that * they were ‘his salvation,” “‘that only for them he would bave been beaten” out of B(i»fiht’ and conld never go to the Senate; it they had sung “Qld Shady” 177 times; that on 49 occasions they had = warbled the wraises of ““The8word of Bunker Hill,” that they had marched ‘‘through Georgia” until their legs were weary, and they had paraded ¢ The Little Brown Jug” until they wished it was full and frothy, and that all this time they were ncfingd{angh on their consciences, as they did not ieve more than half of what they sang. The wear and tear of conscience was feu-lugL But it was useless ; tears even failed to soften ‘be adamantine hearts of the Committee, and the money was not all forthcoming. They want~ -d 680, which the sturgy Committee refused to ’hand over, and still refuses. That is why Mr. Lumbard is aboat to institnte suit against the Committee, beginning to- morrow. When the case comes to trial, all he hasto do is to sing * 0ld Shedy,” and 1f thaf “+us not scare the jm into a verdict entirely in 3 1avor, it isnot a8 effective as it proved P fbe during the campaign.

Eve, at Clinton of the Woman's Aid the ofiice of George 3 ‘ashington Four Boys Go Out on the Prairie to Shoot Rabbits--«No Game Bagged, but One Lad’s Brains Blown Out. His Companions Leave the Corpse on the Ground and Run Home-~-A Girl Accuses One of Them of Killing the Boy--Con- . tradictory Statements. _ A shooting affair, which is involved in mys- tery on account of the conflict of statements concerning it, occurred on the prairie, south of Egan avenue, near Rouben street, yesterdsy'af- ternoon. A carefal inyestigation by & TRIBUNE reporter resulted in his obtaining the subjoined information: -Four boys, named respectively Albert Brandt, Frank Harmon, Fred. Slater and: Ferdinand Slater, started ont hunting yesterday- morning. Ferdinand Slater, who is 14 years of age, carried the only weap6n the. party had—a donble-barrelled shot gun. 'They spent nearly all the day in looking’ for rabbits ‘and prairie chickens, killing three: of -the-latter. Abont half past 4 o'clock in’ the afternoon, Brandt was shot, or shot himself, in the head and instantly expired. The other three lads ran away from the scene and to their homes as fast as they could. The two Slaters stopped at Brandt’s home on Lima street, near Archer avenue, and told his father that Albert had shot himself, and was lying dead on the prairie, near the Beers farm. The father went over to the Fourth Pre- cinet Station, and there found Policeman Cro- gan, who had heard of the occwrrence, and waa sbout to visit the farm, and investigate the affair. Upon muhing the flu.ce, they found the body of young Brandt. 'he front part of his heng was blown off, and his brains scatiered over his clothing and on the ground. Two young ladies, dsughters of Mr.. Beers, camé out of their house, which is but a short distance from shere the corpse was ly- ing, and said they witnessed the occurrence. When interrogated regarding it, they replied that they saw one of the lads g:int the gun at Brandt and fire ; that Brandt's t ¢ flew” into the air, and that he fall to the ground. They were inthe houseat the time, and conld not tell which of the boyshad the . The body was_then removed to Mr. g:ndt’s residence, and Crogan went in search of the Blaters and Harmon. He found the two former st their horme, on Archer avenue, near Halsted street, and conducted them to the police station. When requested to make s statement, they both said that Brandt had a pistol, and vwhile attempting to discharge it, the weapon __exploded and - killed = him, is information ‘having been im- parted to Mr, Brandt, he and Crogan endeavored to find the pistol on the prairie, but were un- successful, and the sssertions of the young Iadies caused them to doubt the truthfulness of the boys’ story. The Slaters were locked up, “and after i in the cell for two hours, were taken into the hallwvay and closely ques- tioned by Sergeant Hood. They reiterated tho pistol story, but, being detected in _a falsehood, finally admitted that Brandt shot himself with the gan. The elder Slater, whose statement waa substantislly the same as that of his brother, #aid that he placed the against atree an went o look for nbbifiole!, haying warned . Brandt not £o touch the weapon, as it discharged very easily. While at a distance from the tree, Brandt picked up the gun, and enap- fedtheca.:'gitmnut loaded, he put his mouth to the barrel to find oat, and just then the weapon discharged, the shot striking Brandt in the forehead and inflict- ed the wound mentioned above. Slater asserted again and again that he did not discharge the gun. Harmon was brought to the station about 7 o'clock by his father, and he also was questioned by Sergeant Hood. He related the pistol story, and could not beinduced to disclose goyihing ‘clse, Tho Coroner was notifed to hold an Inquest on the remains of Brandt, and he msy be ableto learn to-day how the youth was killed. ———. “AINT GOT ANY CLAWS.” ¥a the Bupreme Court of Illinois, several years ago, the case of Hazard vs. the C, B. & Q. B. R. Co. was heard. Mr. Hazard was then a practising lswyer at Galesburg. Returning ‘home from Chicago, one evenirg, On an accom- modstion train, and his housc being situated about two blocks east of thedepot, he attempted to get off the rear end of the caboose. Just at that moment the engineer, finding he had not sufficient hoadwsy to reach the da%at, put on steam; the result was that Mr. Hazard was thrown from the platform and sustained an in- jury to his heel joint. He brought suit inst the Company in the Circmit Court of Enox County, and recovered a verdict. The case was appealed to the Supreme Court, and the decision of the Court below reversed, and the case remanded. Justice Breese, in deliver~ ing the opinion of the Court, stated that the facts conclusively proved that his own negli- ence and c{:ra;esmae!u lm;l h‘o:nz':mteduto the injuryina larger degres negligence and careless of the Bngxrlmld Company, and that, consequently, he was not entitled to recover ; besides, his _injuries were not of & permanent character, and that, if he chose, he might yet ‘Hope to climb the giddy steep Where Fame's proud temple shines afar. Some time after this, a man named McCabe, :u[ta;dl.;.u on the track at Tiskilwa, on the C., B. sued the Company, and, a8 nsual, Tecovered in the Circnit Court. On appeal, Geo. W. Stipp, his counsel, was n%mn ‘before the SBupreme Conrt, when Judge Breess interrupted him, say- ing: ““Mr. Stipp, Mr.Stipp, does not the Hazard case settle this?” Mr. Stipp, who is almost a fac-gimile in appearance and manner of John C. Calboun, passing his hand_through his hair, re- plied: “No, your Honor, I don’t think it does; Ty client ain't got any claws 4 With which to climb the giddysteep ‘Where Fame's proud temple ehines afar.” Ladies’ Fine Furs, The hundreds that daily visit the large and elegant new hat and fur store of Mesars, Bishop & Barnes, corner Btate and Monroe streets, pronounce their stock the best in the city, and far superior_to any ever shown before the grest fire, Ladies and gentlemen looking for holidsy presents for each other, should examino this immenso stock of fine furs before pur- 2 i S A, H.

He | _ THE MUTUAL-SECURITY FUNDS. .- Judge Modgett Declines to . Orler the Faunds in Hand Removed from the Mechanics® National Bank, He Doubts Mr. Séammon’s Good Taste in Keep- ing Them, but, fo Avoid a Greater Evil, Pre- fers Notto Make a Rule of Court in Accordance with the Wishes of the Creditors. At tho opening of the United States District Court yesterday morning, Judge Blodgett said: I have been prescnted by the Reglster in Bsnkruptcy with 8 copy of some Tesolutions passed at s creditors! ‘meeting of tho Mutual Security Insurance Company, the subatance of which is, that Mr. Scammon, the for- ‘mer Treasurer of the b pt Insurance Company, 88 they charge, is in tho possesion of l]nr%:unolln{ of the funds of the Company, and refuses them also, y 28 a stockholder, upon stock and !}Dfik notes, which he also refuses to poy; and requesting that the Court Wonld remove. the deposits of this Company from the Mechanics’ National Bank,with which AMr, Scammon is connected, and ;'m\:h the resolutions designate as Mr., cammon’s Bank, . sande. Inquiries as to tho relations of Mr, Scammon with the bank, and find that he is the owner of less than one-fourth of the stock, and is not very actively engaged in the management of the bank, At the same time, I recognized, to a reasonable extent, the impropriety of allowing a party who is carrying on 5 contest, with another to have the custody of that other's funds, with which to conduct the warfaro, Tho warfare should b conducted with the funds of {he party who is carrying it on, rather than with those of his opponents, and, if ho wins, the Court will award him his costs at the end of the contest, In other words, I hardly think that Mr. Scammon ought to carry on o controversy with the fards of this bank- rupt Insurance Company, which is iu effect a contest with the creditors of that Company in the name of the sssigneo; s ought oL to bo authorized to Bold the fonds of the Compsny for that purpose, if the focts are entirely a5 i5 mssumed. The controversy is not between the Mechanics’ Na- tional Bank and the assignee, but between the assigneo and Mr, Scammon individually, as- Treasurer of the Company, and a large stockholder in the bank. He uld, of course, be benefited pro tanto by the deposit | thebarn of B Bl wor of funds in the, snd othat extenthe may b said to.be benefited by the deposit of thess funds, to carry on tho contest. I further inquired from the sssignee, who also in- formed me that the creditors of the Insurance Company voled s dividend of 7 per conty and b assignoe advisea me that when that dividend was paid, all the , funds in hand will be exhousted, with the exception of perhaps-$180,000 to $200,000; that preparations had Deen mads to secure this dividend from the bank; that checks, vouchers, and rolls had been prepared with reference to that, and it would subject the assigneo to 2 good deal of Iabor, and the creditors to a great deal of ) inconvenience t change the place of deposit of these funds at this time. B I cannot, therefore, suppose thiat the creditars wouia Qesiro this to be done, and I shall, thereforo, not enter anyarder with feferance to the” funds in hand ; thus leavingihe assigneo topsy the dividend to the credi- tars from the funds where they now are. The aseignee advises me that he ahall be readyto commenceto pay the dividend on Monday next, and 28 fast as the creditors who do not want Mr, Scammon tobe Tressurer will get their checks in and withdraw o money thomselves, their wishes will be gratified in ‘The rulos of the Court now suthorize”them to de- posit in the Mechanics’ National Bank orin the Illinois Btato National Bank, Thoy may direct, and the as- Bignee willbe ready fo beguided these creditors™ meeting 8o far a6 it is consistent, and the sssignee 80 directed; and acting under these directions will deposit. the funds as they may choose, 1t T were o adopt the_rule intimated by the resolu- tions, 85 a rule of the Court, I hardly know where I could make s deposit, under the Bankrapt lasw, be- csuse nearly nll the banirupt insurance companies, through _tleir Bsdgn:ulhlm in controversy with par- ties who are indebted to the companies, on set-0ff notes ar stock or otherwise, and 88 they are our capitalists, ‘most of then: are depoeitors in the banks, If I wero to enter a gene;:al order that no deposits could be madein any bank where these parties deposited, but were to confine it t~ bauks not holding stock; it would ehut me out from mnearly all the banks in the city ; 80 that ‘while 1 think he will_probably receive the request of 5o Iarge a meeting of &l creditors as ‘are represented, at the same time I should be disinclined to issue any general order in the premises o as to allow 80me other person to come in and make a motion that certain property £hould be removed tosome other bank, for the reason that some other person is fighting the Assignee and re- sisting payment ; and if Iseek 10 find s place of de- posit I have to find whether there are any stockholders of the bank who are resisting psyment, It would lesd to endless confli and, inasmuch as it is improbable that any individs exercises such a control over the bank as to affect its credit or its policy, I do not think the principle should be engrafted as a ruling principle by the Court.
