THE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: SATURDAY, MAY 10, 1873. ks THE DEFUNCT “NEWS.” Proof of Claims to Be Made Next ‘Tuesday Before Register : Hibbarde . Ample Means to Pay Off the Indebt~ edness by Calling In the Capital Stock Names of the Holders of Stock _ Liable to Be Assessed. On Tueeday next, tho creditors bf the News Printing Company, "in ‘bankruptcy, will appear ‘before the Register to prove their claims. ' The next~ thing to be done will bo to provido the ways and means for settling. The croditors will be glad to learn that the unpaid capital stock for . which'the subscribers aré_thought to be linble is mora than sufficient to settlo all ligbilities' and debts in fall, as an invostigation of the papers and accounts by a TRIBUNE roporter has shown. The ‘company now bankrupt was constitutéd by the following stock subseription agreenient & “March 14;1872.—We, the undersigned, by our signa- . tures heretd, do becoms stockholders of the Chicugo News Drintihg, Company, to the amouut of stock get ‘opposite our respective sigmutures; said stock having ‘been paid for s follows: Twenty par cent cash, an: the balance in four.notes of equal amount, payable re- spectively in three, siz, nine, aud twelve months from tho date of our subscriptions, and we do hereby ‘sev= erally agree to and with the said Chicago News -Print- ing Company, that upon the failure to pay said notes,or elthef of them,or any part of ejther of them at maturity, tho Board of Directors of said company may, by reso- Iution, forfeit such stock and Tetain the amount that may biave then been paid on said etock, a3 damages, but such forfeituro shall not relieve oy one of s from any liability to pay such notes, and cachof them,, 50 given by uarespoctival, according totheir tenor and. s . 3,000 RIS, 2 8 §37,000 received from: these stockholders. It is not niecesgary to esamine the iteme; they would bring tearsto the eyés of many-reporters: who ‘have hot forgotten the days when they used to receive their iminense e&laries in installments of $1'at & time, taking ozt the balance in promises to pay * some time next week.” ' The cash book shows, however, just what the cash books of all new newspaper concerns must show,—the exact siate of - the snbscription account. Not desiring £01acerate the feelings of the gontieman who is amusing himself with that expensive toy, the Inter-Ocean, with comparisons’ that must be odions, we close the cash book. There's one_satisfaction ‘in_the bookkeeping of & concern like the News and Infer-Ocean. No matter how small thesubscription-list is, onecan siways blow about its immensity, g0 long 8s peo- gle'mq be found to pay the piper; and when no- ody can be found to pay the piper it can' be ed to the account. It must have been highly satisfactory, for example, to Mr. —, ono of the reporters, fo find himself a bloated capi- talist to the extent of $616.25, as by the ledger he appears to have been at one period. Another reporter might have passed his Jeisure momenta in pleasantly contemplating the spectacle of. his wealth—on the books. He was for four months the happy possessor of - & credit. of $197. Payments of one dollar at & time roduced that balance to a small sum afterwards, but that doesn’t destroy the beauty of that sort of bookkeeping., If one fails to get the money, be bhas 8t lcest the consolation of reflecting that the money stands to his credit, and that he is a u&‘ihhha' it to that extent. e News stockholders are liable for double the amount subscribed, b{othe laws of this Btate, and they will, therefore, be called upon to. pro- vide another £37,600. The lisbilitics of "the Company, unpaid, amount to about 310,000, and 8S 80on a8 they have all been proved up, an as- sessment will be_made on the stockholders. Some will pay, and some will fight, and one or two are worthless, but there seems no reason to doubt the neteseary amount to pay all debts in | fullundor any circumatances. ith respect to_the lisbility of stockholders, Gross’ Statutes, 1869, page 131, Sec. 9, (laws of 1697, 18,18 Feb, §'9, bon. 763), have the fol- owing: Liability of Stockholders.—All the stockholderd of grery vach campany ehall bo sevarally individuslly Lia- Hle to the creditors of tho company to an amount equal tothe smount of stock held by them, Tespact- ively, for all debts and contracts made by such com- pany, prior fo the time when the whole amount of its capital stock shall have been paid in, and a certificato thereof made and filed as hereinafter mentioned. The Company was formed under this law. The whole amount of its capital has never been gsid in, and the certificate has never been filed. everal decisions in this State have established that under these circumstances the subscribers are liable for the entire amount of stock sub- scribed to the creditors, no matter how much hes been sbsorbed by the concern ; and even if the suits should fail under this act, the stock- holders can be sued separately as copartoers. 5 —_—— PERSONAL.

He did not act like a “man,” and honce his associstes notified the Shporintendent that cither ho (tho boss puddler) or they must cloge work. Tho President of the _Company, Mr. John M. Ayer, was.informed of the -dificulty, =nd {cst.an‘ll.y went to the mill to adjust " it. The foreman and the -puddlers were gathered togother, and . both sides were heard. The latter ?refarred three charges sgainst " the foreman : _he asked for another msn's furnace; 3. That e slandered his_fellow-workmen. As to the first charge: The ‘ ewarth consists of the borings and turnings of . machine-shops. 1t is very easy to work, sud hence every puddler, if he could, would like to secure it~ for his fur- nace. The testimony (oot under osth) showed that the foreman had nsked the Superintendent -it he was entitled to it. This, it was claimed, was a violation of therules of the Union, which #aid that the * swarth” belonged to the oldest Pud\‘].ler. ‘The second charge was not eustained. The third was fully proven. It i8 a serious matter to slandor one's character, and the pud- dlers seemed to be very sensitive upon the point. What is technically known as s * heat is & mnss of iron weighing 450 pounds. The forman had roported - ‘that 1,400 pounds were ueed in two “heats,” when the men had had in fact only 1,200 pounds in their furnaccs. As they ‘wero sosponsiblo for fhe quantity reporied, if only 1,0&’ in weight came _out it would look a8 1f they had stolen the deficiency. The foreman’s ex- planation was very Jame, and he was caught in _several falsehoods. He urged that, becansc he ‘had not paid a find of 825 imposed by the Union, they were determined to get rid of him. The men claimed that ‘that was untrue; if he bad acted like & man and not s sneak, they would have had nothing to say againat him, Mr. Ayer patiently heard the statements of both sides, and, the foreman desiring to resign, he was per- mitfed to go. - One of the castings at the mill broke on Thursday; it will be replaced to-day, and work will be commenced sgain on Monday morning. 5 o g b S —— THAT'S ALL. RIGHT, SIR. A common and not very sgreeable sight was seen yesterdsy, near the polico headquarters. It was a Times reporter. His head was bent down, and concealed beneath an umbrella. Ho wished to gain access to Secretsry Ward's room, withont going through the office of tho Board. Reason: He did not want to meet’ Com- missioner Sheridan “at close quarters. The exterior door of Dr. Ward's room was closed, and the unpleasant apparition, still holding up _the umbrells to _conceal its face, entered the office of the Board. Mr. Bheridan ;Epmu:hed it.. Reason: Ho wanted to goo that Times reporter. Mr. Sheridan, after dodging round_the umbrella for some moments, foally btained & view of the apparition’s face. “Hal" gaid Mr. Bheridan.. The reporter also said *“ Ha,” but not 80 loud or 8o pleasantly.

A “GHOST” TO BE DISGRACED. - Architect Rankin applied to the Board of Po- lice yesterday to get a permit to obiain an en- gine from the Fire Department to pump the wa- ter from the foundations of the new]Government E. | building. Commissioner Sheridan said that en- ines were liable to serious injury in pumping 5‘:‘!91‘ out of foundations. Mr. Rankin eaid that it would only tske two hours to pump, and it would occupy two days todo it by hand. He would take care of the engine. It was agreed to pass the following resolution: Resolved, That the Government have an engine to pump out the foundstions of the new building : snd he Afarshal will see that the order is carried out, FUNNY WAY OF TREATING A JURY.

A very romarkeblo spectacle might have been witnessed in the basement of Mr. Spurgeon’s Tabernacle,” tho other evening. About 1,200 butchers, mostly young journcymen, merry a8 children, took ten together. It was the eighth celebration of what has for some time come io be knowiF,as the Butchers' Festival. Eight yenrs ago Mr. Honry Varley, himeelf ‘then & butcher, but now & well-known ' conductor of. popular’ services, invited 100 of bis calling to & friendly ten meeting. The majority of the in- vited guosts, as they afterward oxplained, decm- ed that a trick wasto be played upon them, and thereforo tho party consistcd of 40 only. ‘T'ho next yoar, however, no suspicion was rife, and _ the . diffeulty was Low to. provide for the numbers assembled. Since then the scheme Las grown yoar fly year, until, in 1872, nothin less -thau tho Metropolitan Tabernacle woul suit the requirements of tho feasters.. Mr, Srmgoon foll at onco, and generously, into the plau, und the Easter Tucsday butchers! fostival at Nowington Butts ia now a recognized institu- tion. "The lecture-rooms, class-rooms, echool- rooms, and offices below stairs at the Tabernacle are quite a small town in their extent and. num- ber of tharox:lghfuea, and in the quantity of in- formation and directions liberally printed on the Svalls to prevent a wayfarer from losing himself. These large rooms weore full of tea-drinkers. With the oxception ‘of a few ladies presiding at the tables, it :was found necessary to limit the attendanco to tho sterner eex. That théy wero butchers, puro sud simple, no man in his senses who glanced at their hands and faces oould doubt ; doubt though he reason- ably might, if his attention bad been confined to the faultless broadeloth and neckties thoy wore. All tho types of the order were there. The smart youth who, shining and_hatless, shoots round &uburban corners behind a plump little trotting Eony handled the plum-cake as deftly as to-day o will handle the reins. Tho mild, ruddy-faced gisnt, bashfully passing his tea-cup, was just the man you would select for felling a prize ox. 'The dapper comrade who questioned him touching the milk and sugar, “will, in due time, politely sell at the ruling hith prices, tho fish which his friend has killed. The gathering was cosmopolitan in. other senses, too; for the master-man, whose cheque is a bank-note at Smithfield, sat mext to a lowly slaughter-man, and preesed more cold beef upon the porter, who would, in tho courso of s few Tours, be staggering under the woight of a fresh carcas. Yet, rough and ready ns many of thess men were, there was nothing boisterous and nothing vulgar in their conduct, except, indeed, to the superfine soul to whom any tea-table mus: be vulgar where 15150 pounds of meat, 5 cwt. of, bread, and 5 cwt 6f cake are mado to vanish like chaff before the wind. Iy The area of the Tabernacle was, later in the evening, reserved for the butcher-guests, while the galferies were crowded with a mixed audi- ence, . Mighty was the chioer when Alr. Spurgeon and Mr. Varly.ascended the rostrum to open the public meeting which was to supplemant the That he asked for the ** swarth;” 2. That- tea. Little timo was lost in beginning.. Twelve hundred butcher-men singing in full volume of sound, aud porfect Lue an time, * There is & fountain filled with blood,” was at loast a novel- ifi ‘The hymn was followed by & prayer from . Spurgeon, o prayer sdupted to tho compre- ‘hensions of the congregstion, It Lad much ref- erence to the market-place, and its idlers, and inculeated the necessity of honesty and industry init. Thereverend gentleman invoked s divine blessing - upon the bles, and asked that, though some of his congregation might be drivers of bullocks, they shoula not live or die like brutes. A master butcher named Venables came forward when tho speech-making began, and, ns the product of pence subscriptions from the workingmen of tho trado, pre- gented Mr. and Alrs. Varloy - and, their gon with some _handsomely-bound books. Then cemo wensible addrosses” of thanks -and advice from Mr. Varley. The speaker who succceded him was_introduced ss a gentleman who could either kill a pig or preach a sermon— a8 the Rov. W. Cuff, once & student at the pas- tor's college, hiow a Baptist minister in the coun- try. It was, of course, Mr. Spurgeon who in this usint style doscribed the young speaker, and ' the butchers brought down the house when the reverend humoriet laid it down asan indisputable proposition that every butcher could drivea horse and cart, and that if anybody could make s rocking-horse go 16 miles an_hour, he-was the individual. When it came to Mr. Cufl's turn, he ‘manifosted no desiro to deny the soft impeach- ment as to the pig-sticking, but entercd boldly into his past experience 1n the various branches of thoe profession. Mr. Spurgeon, after a few amusing anecdotes, made a serious appeal to the butchers not to lose sight of the paramount clzims of Christinnity, enforcing it by n happy reference to what once took place at the Smith~ field they knew so well. If tho Jehus of the trade, a8 he called them, only took the advice he gavo in the matter of cart-driving, the hospitals would have less work, and the list of fatal acci~ dents wonld be minus numerous entrfes. All the speakers were listened to attentively, and a more sppreciative audience no speaker could have. The Trent Difficulty. Another ator‘f of tho solution of the Trent difficulty is told by a Washington correspondent of tho Philadelphia Press: Thero is better au- thority than either Mr. Adams or Mr. Welles for ssyiog that neither the Secretary of the Navy, nor of State, was the author of that diplomacy. The newa of the capture of Mason and Slidell +was 80 sudden and so unexpected that for a time the entire Administration was at a loss to know what to do. Mr, Lincoln, of course, consulted with his Cabinet Ministers, esgfchl]y with his Sccretary of State. With all his ignorance of foreign affairs, of which Mr. Adams accuses him, he saw that 8o grave an event would, in the state of feeling then oxisting in Great Britain, probably involvous in_trouble. But the great quostion was how to dispose of it. In this, 8 in many n other emergency, Mr. Lincoln sought the advice of Senator Sumner. 'That statesman out- lined a plan to Mr. Lincoln which he thought would at once protect the dignity of the Govern- ment and_eatiefly the somewhat imperious de- mand of Great Britain. The President was eo impressed with it, that, in an impassioned man- ner, he ®aid to Mr. Bumner, *Now, lease, Mr. Senator, go straight to eward_snd tell him' what you have told me.” Mr. Sumner did so. The idea that Bumner suggested was subsequently embodied in the famous dispatch which was addressed to the British Cabinet, though the language was Mr. Seward’s. By invitation of Mr. Lincoln, Mr. Bumner was present at the Cabinet meetinj Where this dispatch was finally considered, an his opinion was songht a8 au(flafly 88 that of any other gentleman present. These facts destroy a Iittle of that romance of Mr. Adams which repre- sonts Mr. Seward as coming to the Cabinet with his dispatch already prepared without having consulted any person, and with its having been ‘accopted, without discussion, as the-views of the Government. It is not my intention to detract from the juat renown of MMr. Seward, but some- thing is due, also, to those who upheld his hands and strengthened his heart in the great conflich to sustain the Union. i Fast Railroad Time. The_Hartford Courani has recently inter- viewed gome railroad men, and publishes the in- formation thus obtained. On point of fast driying it eays ¢ ¢ * Superintendent Davidson sald he never yet yun an engine without carg attached as fast as it could go. The stories about an engine run- ning eighty or ninety miles an hour aro absurd. We heve as good engines a8 any road in the country, and there are not many that can run over a mile o minute with & light train. An en- gineer who is getting all he can out of his ma- chine is often very apt fo find the second-hand of his watch come around just a little before the ‘mile-post is passed. There isanimpression preva- Ient that an enginewill go faster with two or three cars behind, just to steady it. Thisis a fallacy. Every ounce of weight detracts from speed. The oxpress-trains on thisrosd used ‘to run faster than they do now, but it didnt pay. In 18! _just before the Sunday night mail-train waa pul on, there was an effort made by the four roads forming & connectingline between New York and Boston to see how fast a train could run. The train consisted of only two cars, and no passen- gers were carried. n this road, the engine fNew York"” B.H.Hunt, cogineer, on tho train's trial trip, an from 'Springfield to Hart- ford, twenty-six miles, in_thirty minutes, three minutes being lost in slowing down over the ‘bridge st \Vsarehouo Point.

The concurrent testimony of tho cases in which it has been tried is, that it ‘soothies and mollifies the motor centres, operat- ing on the motor tract s opium operatcs on_ the brain, thus quieting and renovating the wholo muscular system, and scting indirectlyas a tonia and nervine. 1t is now largely used in cases of epilepsy by New York phyeicians. e Fhy aurder of tho Sbaw family by poison, in Washington County, N, Y., is still fresh in the mind, as is the arrest of Charles Shavw, tho hus- band and father, and Mrs. Briggs, his parsmour, both of whom are under indictment for the mur- dor.

The celebration of .these extraordinary nuptials has afforded much " amusemient to the people whilst_the parents of the juvenile mothers-in-law availed themselves of this opportunity to spond afow thousand rupees to satisfy the one inclination foremost in themind of .every Hindoo,—feeding the Brah- mins, relations, kinsmen, friends, neighbors, and thepoor. ° _ —California, strange to say, has fiane into the badecrop prediction business, Hitherto our g of the Pacific slope olden sister Commonwoalth o gu been famous for nothing so much a8 taking & cheerful view of things. mises of exten- sive yields of cereals and fruits depress ‘market rices, perh.l}és, and the auriferous queen of the estern cosat of the continent is becoming mer- cenary.

A shameful exhibition has very recently taken place in_London under the especial oversight ©of the Marquis of Queensberry. The enter- tainment was a prize-fight of the most brutal description. The arena selected was a disused chapel, now kncwn sa Grafton Hall in Soho. The lestee o iho. building had understood that it was to be a sparring match, and did not know the real character of the performance until he entered the hall a short time before the open- ing. Hesays: “Iwas told thero were & noble Manquis, two noble Lords, and three Colorels of Hor Majosty'’s army in the crowd. The persons forming the meeting all appesredito be well- dressed, wellefed men, with the aniwmisal strongly marked in their features.” The prize to tho winner was.given by the Marquis of Queens- berry, and an additional sum of £100 was raised by subscription. This youog nobleman is an officer in the navy, and made himself odious dur- ing our rebellion by his avowed sympathy for the South. The pugilists wore gloves, but of & ery different kind from the ordinary boxing- gloves. The agony caused is grester fhan with fho naked fist, and a man may be killed quite 2% casily, One of the men was hammered until in- senaible, after which, by the use of stimulants, he revived enough to fight several rounds more. The backers of the loger tried to crowd in and break up tha fight when they saw thelr meney would be lost. Nothing seems to have ‘been wanting to mako the fight brutal. Woe are told these contests arenow of almost daily occurronce in London. Only a short time agoaman was killed in one of these glofl!‘flghl! after it -had Iasted about seventy minutes. . ———— Threo Clever Dogs. il the New York Egening Post: To b s ¥ ata ' rico of fino Newfoundland dogs have flourished in the village where Llive, characterized by some prominent excellence.

Wae aro making history too fast to look back and_scan tho pages writion a few Fears ngo. ; Yeaterday morning, while going to. Oskland, one of our reporters observed a little, stoop- shouldered, gmizzly-haired, sharp-oyed man, of perhaps 50 years of age, who carried in his hand o heavy rifle, iu the barrel of which was the ram- rod used for cleaning the gun. There was some- thing in the appearauce of the man that cansed our reporter to address him. .A conversation ensued, of which we shall give the reader the substance: K “Well, you see, I'm old Californy Jos, and hain't been doin’ much for a long tune, and hev heen gettin’ rusty like. I bain't amelt blood nor Dad a fight of any description for 8o long that I really don't know that I am fit for anyihing, but you ace these Modocs havo been® playing 8 very mnggdgsme onto the people in tne North. They is good fighters, and as mean Injins as ever was seen, and I soxter think a few of their skelps would ornament my cabin. I hain't got mary Modoc skelp, and you. know my coliection won't be comslebe unless I kin get some Modoc har to hang alongside tho other kinds. So, you ses, T'm going to the lava beds to take a hand in the Tittlo gamo that is being played thar. Mny bo you will hear the result of tho crack of Joo's Yifle, and may be tho redskins will 1ift my har, but one thing is certain; I'm going to give them a chance.” Tho boat resched the opposite shors, and ‘bidding the old man good-bys, with plenty: of Iuck, we eaw him enter a car and di¢appear from view. - Minister De Long. -From the New York Sun.: The Hon. Charles E. De Loug, our Minister to Japan, whoso recall has excited 0 much com- ‘ment, lived in Maryaville, Cal:, in 1850, At that time, Do Long was a waiter in the restaurant connected with the Western Hotgl, at D and Sec- ond streets. He was always ambitious to become & politician, and claimod to be » Democrat of the Jacksonian school. The gueats of tho hotel were not unfrequently amused by little Charlie’s—he is about b feet high, and doss not weigh more than 100 pounds—dissertations on the politics of tho day. Ho wes often known to lay down his tray while waiting on & customer, and _begin a Toated political argument._ In;1851, when John Bigler was runnixg as the Democratio _candidato against - Waldo for Governor of Californis, De Long was a violent partisan - of Bigler, On one occasion during the campalgn an open-air Digler meeting ‘ was beld in front of the Western Hotel. The Hon. Jesse 0. Goodwin presided. Senator Will- jam M. Gwin was speaking, and Congressman Milton B..Latham was to foliow. De Long was anxious to make a speech. He circulated among the nudience, and told them to “ holloa for De Long.” At the close of Scnator Gwin's_spcech @ shout went up for De Long. Mr. Goodsin st;}: to the front of the platform and eaid, £ Mr. De Long is presént will he please come forward.” De Long, who was in waiting at the rear of the platform, instantly mounted the ros- trum, and wes introduced to the audience. A breathless silence }Jxavafled in expectancy of De Long's speech. ust as he he was about to be- gin, & hugo specimen of the genus Pike broke fongue, and said at the top of his voice, ** Wall, Tl be gosh durnod if that ain't the little critter ‘who was here & minute ago, and told me to hol- loa for De Long.” The intending orator wag complately unnerved. He stammered and hun his head.” He could not say a word, and, ami the jeers of the audience, slunk off the stand. g T Amadcus to Kis Father. The Spanish Radical paper, £l Imparcial, of" tho 15th inst., publishes a Spanish translation of a lotter which the Duke of Aosta_addressed to his father, the King of Italy, in' January, 1869, aftor the first offer of the crown of spain. This document (of which sn English translation fol- lows) throws much light on the ideas entertained by Don Amadeo from first to lnst, even before the murder of Prim: - Your MasesTy: It was with extreme surpriso that, for the first time and without any previous commanication to mo on the subject, I heard from your Majesty that it was seriously in con- templation to confer on me the crown of Spain. On my return to Genoa I have spoken of thisto my wife. Sheisready to_follow mo wheraver I may go, to share my lot whatever it may be. To tell i'our Muj:sg how much Ilovemy country and how much I am willing to do for her is needless; .any sacrifice, even that of life itsolf, would seem light to me for her gake. But what is it that I am now 2sked to un- dertake ? Ii is to rule the destiny of a conntry which is divided and torn to pieces by o thou- Ennds»oliticnl parties ; and s_task which would e arduous to any ono would be doubly so to one who, like myaelf, hes had no experience in the dificult art of governigg. The conre- quence would be that I should, ia' fact, not gov- ern, but should have to submit to the dictates of thogo who had called me to the throns, These reasons are strong enough to induce me this very day to place in the hands of your Majosty my formal refusal to the crown of. Spain, be;z'- ging your Majesty to transmit my decision fo thoge whom it may concern. “Your Majesiy's affectionate son, v ** AyapEo.” PR, =S How Mark Twain Got o Seat. In a new local magzine—the Globe—published in Buffalo, is the following reminiscance of. Mark Train's brief editorial career in that city: No man detested loafers more than Mr. Clem- ens, and assuredly no man could be more piti- Jess in his treatment of bores. He was vigorous in his denunciation of that class of people wko aimlessly and impudently intrude their constant présence in an editorial room. One incident Till, perhape, bear rolating, showing how he once rebuked s party of undesired visitors. Arriving at_his _office” one ‘evening about 814 o'clock, he found it full of men—all strangers to him. ey had apparently taken full possession of the room. Some were smoking, and some had their feet mpon the table, and every chair in the room was occupied. With s look of disgust, Mr. Clemens hesitated for a moment in the door- Way, and then in his peculiar way, said: I this the editorial room of " the Ezpress?” “Yea, sir,” promptly chorused the assem- 1lage. . 3 H—m! is it customary for the editors to eit down ?" questioned the humoriss. 7 % Yea,” * certainly,” ““to be sure,” were the replies of the puzzled smokers. Whydo you 7" said one at last. ¢ Because,” slowly enunciated Mr. Clemens, «T am one of the editors of the Erpress, and 1t ooccurred to me that I ought to bave a seat. In an instant every chair was vacated, and the men, somewhat abashed, nlte:g&md to langh tho matter off by eaying, “Ah! . Clemens, that Was neat,”, s Witty as neual,” etc., etc., but there as something:in. the jokeP’s ove that quickly told them he was in no joking frame of .mind at that momenti‘wA.flcr that, loafers were rather shy of Mark Twain.
