6 THE HOCUS POCUS. The Mayor Probably To Receive a Few Papers from the Gevernor To-Bay. What They Are Said To Be and the Probable Result. 4N INTERVIEW WITH THE GOVERNOR. It is highly probable that before sundown to-day Mayor Havemeyer will be in the receipt of certain papers from Governor Dix which will convince him that his tomfoolery in the reappointing of Gardner and Charlick and his refusal to investi- wate the charges preferred against the street | Strangely, it seems, that just at this particular | Cleaning managers were not, after all, a huge ke. The Governor’s private secretary was in wn yesterday, and it was generally expected that he had come from ‘‘Seatield” on a special mis- | won from the Governor to the Mayor; but he aid mot pay the funny old man a visit, mach, doubt- Jess, to the relief of ‘His Honor,’’ who expected a ©all, and, in anticipation of it, passed a very uncomfortable forenoon. It turned out that the secretary, who was summoned from Albany ‘ast Wednesday by the Governor, left “Seafield” yesterday morning by the early train and that he had come to town on important business connected with the charges that had been preferred against the Mayor. He was to have gone back to “Seafleld” last evening, but he sent ® messenger in his stead with certain papers ‘which the Governor required before coming 0 a deciaion in the case; and two-day it is expected that the messenger will arrive by the morning train wit a roll of manuscript, which Mr. Have- meyer will be allowed to peruse at his leisure be- fore any one else gets a glimpse ofit. Colonel De Kay refused, in the most positive manner, to state the exact cause for his hurried visit to the city. It is the beltef of those who have the best means of ascertaining the real coudition of affairs that the papers that, as is alleged, are to be served on the Mayor are a copy of the various charges pre- ferred against him, and Pog J him a specified time in which to get ready to answer them, and, What is considered more than probable, a notice of suspension from office for thirty days, penaing the investigation into the charges. It 18 a mis- taken idea of some people that the Mayor, in case ol charges being preferred against him, has eight days to prepare an answer, whereas the law simply provides that the bearing in the case must be completed within eight days. It sheuld be understood that the Governor bas not the power to remove the Mayor at once when charges are referred against him. However, he he power to suspend him pending an investigation. [If the testimony obtained at the hearing, when submitted'to the Governor, is in his opinion damaging to the accused party, he has the power absolute and uncontrolled to re- move him from office; in factythere is no appeal against the decision, the wernor being both judge and jury. . The politicians were in a great state of excite- ment over the rumors that were afloat concerning the Governor’s probable action, and to hear the hangers on and the small iry of the pap-hunting genus talk about the matter one was almost led to believe that they and they alone bad any inter- ests at stake. But the people who do not consider themselves, and would not uf they could be consid- ered, poliucians, but who have the welfare and good name of the city at heart, and who care nothing for the wrangfings of the cliques and clans, whose highest object is the tiling of their own waliets at the public ex- pense were apparently in no way excited. Tnev Wook matters calmly, and every one who was spoken to on the subject declared that be telt cer- tain Governor Dix would bring order out of chaos, Inaeed, this general feeling of quiet confidence seems to have been engendered by the way the Governor received the committee woo visited bim to prefer charges against the Mayor and by his promise that he should act promptly. THE LATEST. It was stated on good authority late last even- ing that Colonel de Kay haa gone to Albany with ail the papers in the case against the Mayor and With a written notification to the Attorney Gen- eral to institute an investigation. It was also stated that until the Attorney General moved in the matter po order of suspension would be ts- pued egaines the wipe. Mr. Havemeyer said last pight that as yet he received no notice of any kind trom Governor Dix through his private secre- tary or anybody else. A PRIVATE CONFERENCE ‘was held last evening at the office of Mr. Wingate, the counsel for Tammany Hall, at which Mr. Otven- worfer, John Kelly and others interested in the prosecution of the Mayor were present. It was Btrictly private, and it is believed reiated excla- | sively to the additional indictments that are being wougit for against Gardner and Chariick. General Dix’s Mind Made Up About the Mayor—He Has Loaded His ‘Shoot- Him-on-the-Spot” Gun, But Hesitates to Fire. Westnawrton, L. L, July 10, 1874, Expecting that—having had time to sleep over | the impeachment resolutions of the Aklermen— | the G6vernor might be inclined to announce nis intentions definitely with regard to Mayot Have- meyer’s folly, a HERALD representative drove over to his house again at noon to-day. He was out Shooting, and the old veteran was found sitting down beside the creek, waiting for some foolish snipe to approach him so that he could ‘shoot im on the spot.’ He was dressed in @ light gray coat and pantaloons, white vest and broad- brimmed Panama hat. He held @ sun umbreila over nis head, a decoy whistle bung from a string round his neck, and beside him on the bench lay @ double-barrelled shotgun that had seen considerabie service and wouid still make & sports- ™man’s teeth water. He greetea your correspond- ent pleasantly, and chatted jor some mmutes about the shooting, fishing, batuing and tempera- ture of the neighborhood. He said he had fully made up his mind as to what course he will pursue “mu the matter treated of by the document pre- sented to him last night by General Pinekney; but he has his own reasons jor not promulgating his ac- tion to-day. He intends, as a matter of course, to make bis first communication to Mayor Have- meyer, and his action will then be im- mediately given to the press by his private secretary, Colonel Sy they de Kay, who is now ip New York for that purpose, In no other Way will the public be made aware of what he bas done. From some remarks made by His Excei- Jency during the conversation your correspondent conciudes ior hunself that Monday next will be the time and New York city the piace to look out tor tue Governor's message to the Mayor. The further Opinion may be uttered that the reading of that Message Will not bring many thrills of joy to the | heart of Mr. Havemeyer. It is perfectly safe to say that no expression can represent General Dix’s Jeelings about the Mayor's conduct that is not one Of immeasurable disgust. Trouble in the Aldermanic Camp. It appears that the members of the Board of Assistant Aldermen feel y the slight put upon them by the members of the other Board, in passing resolutions lookiag toward impeaching the Mayor, without even deigning to motice the existence of a junior branch. The sistant Aldermen contend that the Common Coun- Cil consists of both voards, containing thirty-six members, and any measure passed by one body, in order to be valid, must be concurred in by the other. Any work to be undertaken by the city it $s necessary to do under the appellation of the “Mayor and commonality” of the city of New York. Even the smallest matter, say the appointment of a commissioner of deeds, must originate in one Board, be concurred in by the other and signed by the Mayor, before vecoming valid and legal, It tga well known fact that on the Stn inst, the Aldermen met pursuant to a special call, and then, W.tn@ presence of nine members, passed certain | resolutions requesting His Excellency Governor Dix to suspend Mayor Havemeyer or remove iim from omice. Thus matter made the Assistant Aldermen angry, for they had been slighted—not that they love the | ayor less, but they iove their dignity more. They desire to Cemonstrate that the sovereign people ‘who have elected them to office demand that their —. should be treated with proper re- An informal meeting of a majority of the mem- bers of the Board of Assistant Aldermen was heid im their clerk's off esterday aiternoon, ‘when It was decided that t vernor be requested to withhold pis action to: Hntii their voices could ve Alderman Healy was appointed a committee to communicate with Governor Dix, and he de- patched a message by telegraph, stating in sub- Stance that “inasmuch as only eignt members of the Common Council, which consists of thirty-six, Dave passed resolutions, that His Excellency be fequested to stay any action he may take in this Matter until the Assistant Aldermen can be heard, ited peso Will take place on Monday after- oon.

The mystery connected with tne bicody shirt discovered at the Natham mansion so recently was not explained to the sstisfaction of the police or the public yesterday, some of the newspapers to the contrary notwithstanding. There were any number of individuals who volunteered their opinions ag to its identity; but, with a solitary ex- ception, there was not one who came forward and said of bis own personal knowledge that the mys- terious garment—as it has certainly proved itself om the } | } ceased Nathan on the night of his assassination, time, when a correct revelation of the mystery 1s + s0 much desired by all parties, the very persons | who are supposed to possess that information are | apsent from the ity.” No matter what may be the | final result of the investigation which has been | instituted by the police authorities to discover the | identity ot the shirt and the part it bore in con- nection with the MURDER OP MR, NATHAN, and no matter how disposed individuals may be to | sneer at the possibility of a clew being obtained in | } connection therewith, one thing is assured, the | police are still in doubt, and are making vigorous | } efforts to obtain the truth and to solve whatever mystery there may remain yet unsolved to the | satisfaction of everybody. At Police Headquar- | | ters yesterday many called out of curiosity to see | the article, and among the number was a son of the murdered Mr. Nathan, MR, HARMON NATHAN, } who saw Superintendent Matsell, and, during a | brief interview, intormed that official of what knowledge he posseased with regard to the gar- | shat the reports pubiished in the newspapers had attracted hts attention and that of bis connec: | thans, and he deemed it best to come to the cit | (having been sojourning for a time in the country and to dispel some doubts that seemed to exist very generally with regard to the shirt in ques- tion. He went on to explain that at the in- | que: be removed irom his father’s person; it was afterwards thrown under an iron safe in his , father’s room, where it remained untouched until | When asked when he saw the shirt last | | recently. | Mr. Natnan said 1t must have been about a year | ago, and he supposed it was removed subsequently and thrown into the closet where it was OV- ered. Mr. Nathan also identified the handwriting on the shirt as thas of nis mother’s. ‘The police have as yet been unavle to trace the shirt back, properly speaking, to any particular piace. Mr. Nathan’s statement that it was under | the iron safe 1s one story, and there are several other stories afloat as to where the garment was hidden. The latest story is that severa! weeks ago some workmen found it secreted beuind the dumb | Waiter on the premises and then threw it into the closet, and, fearing that they would be summoned before the Courts, failed to make known their dis- covery. Bx-Coroner Rolling has iniormed the police autnorities that he only remembered there Was a shirt on the body of the murdered man, but | does not remember its having been thrown away. Dr. Beach, who was prominently idenufled with | the mquest, and Levi J. Isaacs, the undertaker, who are the only two men, it 13 surmised, who can positively testify as to the existence of the identical shirt and explain whether it Was taken off Mr. Nathau’s body alter death or | not, are still out of the city, and itis not Known | when they will return. The police have communi. cated vy letter to one or both of the parties. Ihe story of Mr. Nathan has by no means aisposed of the necessity of the investigation, with a view | of tracing the history of the shirt. If there is any | secret to be unraveled or clew wo be obtained just now the detectives are bent on finding it out. Late yesterday evening, after Mr. Nathan’s visit to | headquarters, Captain ing, With detectives Far- ley, Sampson ana Bennett, paid a visit to the NATHAN MANSION | and thoroughly inspected the premises. They | passed through and viewed the stable or barn where the bloody shirt was picked up last Wednes- day, and !reely diseussed past circumstances and | old theories connected with the crime. one thing, at least, upon which all the detectives Were agreed, and that was, how in the name of | common sense the shirt of the murdered Mr. Nathan, if it was his,could have lain on the premises | to have a distinct recollection that the shirt now | held at Police Headquarters was the same as worn by the deceased Mr. Nathan, and yet they could | not say it was not. Detectives Farley and Bennett both declared they bad searched the mansion, the premises—everytuing and everywhere—lor weeks after tne murder, and did not come across this sbirt. Some one prescat suggested that the soirt in | question was the oue worn by Mr. Nathan’s assas- sin, and that it must have been secreted on the premises after the murder, and that the murderer | effected bis escape by the back entrance. The theory that the murderer entered and made his exit by the back way was accepted by Detectives Irving, Farley and Sampson, bat Detective Bennett took a different view. He tried to demonstrate to the satisfaction of his associates that the mur. derer of Mr. Nathan climbed into the second story front on Twenty-third street, and made his escape | the same way. He pointed i bing Which Le said Was an impression made. by the foot of THE MURDERER. The detectives stopped some time on the premises, | but went away without feeling satisfied one way ‘or the other, As Detective Farley remarked, they are compelled to trace the history ot the bloody shirt up to the night of the murder, and until then they will not feel satisfied. He bad some hopes, nowever slight, that the garment might yet afford a clew to the murderer of Mr. Nathan. In the meantime the public as well as the police await the return of the parties who can satisfac- vorily explain the identity of the shirt. Mr. Maunsell B. Field’s Explanation of the Bloody Shirt. To THE EpITors or THE EVENING Post:— It may ve recollected by the public that I was foreman of the jury called by Coroner Roilins for the inquest upon the body of Mr. Benjarmin Nathan. When I first saw the corpse on the 29th of July, 1870, it was clad in @ long nightgown, which was | saturated witn blood, especially at the lower ex- | tremity. Under this nightgown there was a fan- nei waist. Later in the afternoon of the same day: which was the one succeeding the night of the , maurder, I saw the body in an ice voffin, and it was then divested of all clothing. Having occasion to visit the house at some time during the ensuing September, I found tne vloody nightgown rolied 1 a bundie under the iron saie in the “office,’’ or front hali room of the second story in which Mr, Nathan was murdered. My at- | tention was first called to it by the fetid odor | Which it emitted, It would have been a matter of | surprise to Me to find it there had it not been tor the amazing carelessness of the police about the whole conduct of the case. As Mr. Frederick Nathan’s bloody shirt was permitted to be sent to the wash it is less sur) rising that Mr. Benjamin Nathan’s shirt was le/t upon tne premises. ‘That this was the shirt found the other day in the stable I entertain no doubt whatever. Of course I do not know, and it is not very important | to conjecture, Who removed it to where it was re- | cently discovered. MAUNSELE B, FIELD. SECOND Districy Covet, New Yor«, July 10, A HOME QUESTION, [From the National Republican.] Why don’t the New York journals which are so deeply interested in the alleged misgovernment of the District of Columbia turn their attention to their own city? A statement just published shows that under its boasted reiorm government its indebr- edness was increased $6,000,000 last month, and for the first sLX months of the present year nearly $18,000,000, or one-half of its annual expenditure, New York seems to be ambitious to run up a debt as large asthat of the general government, and She is succeeding at a rate that must be consolin, to those who nave to foot the Mill.

Some few indefatigable workers still resist the pressure of the hot weather and stand to thelr easels with a firmness and devotion quite heroic. } among these is M. F. H. de Haas, who 1s busy get- tung ready for the exhibitions to be held thie sam mer at Chicago and Boston, Several coast scenes on his easel are well forward. He has just completed a picture for one of the prominent art dealers in this city, which differs in many import- } ant respects trom the usual style of this artist. It 1s called “Moonlight on the Bay.” It represents | aship tying partly in shadow with a stream of | moonlight thrown across its bows. This simple motive has been handled with more than De | Haas’ ordinary dramatic power. The sky, t00, is | Very careinlly painted and there ts an absence of | the ragged cloud effects which too often interfere with the value of the sky compositions of this artist. The light é¢ffects have been admirably balanced and harmonized, This picture wiil raise Mr. De Haaa considerably in the estimation Of art connoisseurs. Chicago will have a grand art exhibition this year, Irving seems to have made up his mind to rival Melssonnier in the art of pares. littie soldiers of the olden time. He has painted types of the different classes of men-at-arms, and 18 ROW | at work on a standard bearer, When not engaged | in this romantie art he turns his brush with good success to the depicting of everyday people, and | the result 18 very Satisfactory. One of this latter class of pictures represents an old lady sitting in | her own room. it 1s simplya portrait, yet the | composition ts so carefully done, and the detail so minutely worked up, that it has all the added value of a study. It 18 not olten that modern painters go to the troubie of making pictures in which to seta portrait, and what Mr. Irving has done in this matter will tnerefore be the more sp- Preciated by those Wio desire to see art produc. clafm at present. An enthusiast for the work of the early schools of painting, a certain Abbot Malvezzi, of Bergamo, has lately broaght to light an interesting fresco in the Church of Santa Maria Maggiore, it appears that during some repairs to the church @ suspicion arose of the existence of a fresco, and after constd- erable and anxtous labor a perfect specimen of the art of the fourteenth century was made visible. The date—1347—was discovered upon the work, and this fact established its title to rank among the most ancient frescoes preserved in Lombardy, signed for the death of Giotto. The Atheneum says:—Four of the new pictures peccnaees at the sale of the late Mr. Parker's col- ection for the National Gallery have been hung for public inspection, These are, Botticell’s “Mars and Venus,” and “Venus Reclining, three Amorint pelting her with roses;”’ L. Signorell’s “Triumph of Chastity,” so-called; and the ‘Return of Ulysses to Penelope,” by Pinturrichto, The picture of | Pudella Fraticesca appears not to have been re- painted in any fair sense of the term, but certain mechanical injuries naving been rather roughly | repaired, the intruded portions, which are by no | means of great importance, will probably be re- | moved. There can be no doubt about the value and merit of this picture; and it is a most desira- ble addition to the National Gallery. Other acqui- sitions irom the Parker collection will shortly be on view in Trafalgar square, The receipts 01 the exhibition of paintings in the Champs Elysées amounted this year to 180,000f | ‘That sum 18 the largest which. has yet been reak | a ized. In 1973 the figures were 172,000f, and in 1872 only 166,000f. This season the works for the installation at the Palais cost only 60,000/., while last year tne expense was 70,000f, | ‘The first perioa of the exhibition at the palace | of the Corps Légisiatif, in aid of the Alsace-Lor- rainers, produced @ sum of 217,010f. To the credit ofthe workmen engaged in first epee and afterwards replacing the articles in their cases, it may be mentioned that not a picture was damaged | nor any piece of porcelain or other curiosity either chip ped or broken. Goupil’s Gallery. Two pictures in this gailery will irresistibly at- tract the attention of those interested in art—the © one a brilliant and almost gaudy canvas of the new school of art which is coming into fasnion; the other, @ small soldter subject, by Detaillé, in which some of the best qualities of the French school are visible. A Japanese shop furnished the motive for the former, and, so far as it may be | quite true to nature, may be defensible, but we | prefer the sober grays that temper even the sun- | ight of Detatlié picture to the brilliant colors, | showy almost to cradeness, which lend a mere- tricious charm to the new school, whicn the Japa- nese picture represents. In the department of sculpture an ideal bust of | the most charming and womanly of Dickens’ char- acters deserves attention. It is modelled with | that decision of hand and delicacy of touch so | seldom found combined in the one artist, Itisa task of no ordinary difMculty to attempt to give | form and De ane expression to & character so full | of delicat shadin; “agnes”’ “David Copperfield, as 8, one of the sweetest and most beautifully baianced creations of that master mind. in which the woman and the angel are so blende that it is diMcuit to decide where the | merely human ends or the seraphic begins. A | | soe American sculptor, John Charles ©’Kelly, | 48 attempted to express in marble what Dickens | suggested to the imagination, and has succeeded | beyond expectation. The womanly sweetness and parity of “Agnes”? has been expressed with in- nite delicacy, and yet the dignity and strength underlying fier character shine through the gentle- ess and sweet serenity of the face. The execu- tion of the work 13 very creditable, the modelling being firm and delicate ana the work, as it should, | showing traces of the chisel. Its finish is no mere sand and water polish, nor has the file been allowed to supersede the chisel. THE MIDSUMMER BEGIRA TO EUROPE. The European Steamers Leaving To- | Day Packed—What Is Said by the tails. The feet of European steamers which leave New York to-day take away irom our shores hundreds | of perspiring mortals, fying from the ‘heated term” in search of pleasure, business and cooler | latitudes. The low rates of passage tend in no small measure to swell the lists. notably of the steerage passengers, who can now Visit or re- turn to their transatiantic fatherlands for a mere nominal sum. Tickets have been sold as low as $12 50. These low rates have been brought about by the competition of new lines. A Philadelphia company carries passengers at the lowest quoted | New York rates, and, in addition, carries them free | by rail to the City of Brotherly Love. | The competition 1s becoming day by day more ac- tive, and it is expected that within @ month rates will be down to $10 a head for steerage passengers. The German steamers are contemplating, it is re- | ported, a considerable redoction in their steerage | Tates. The pes agent of one of the lies stated to a HeRaLp reporter last evening that tle | company had such an immense rush of people manding Ree tickets that they peed sale of tickets during the afternoon. The same gentleman also stated that the present rates are barely remunerative, and will probably soon be Increased. The steamer Britannic takes out up- | wards of 800 cabin and steerage passengers to-day. | The passenger agent o! another line stated yes- | terday aiternoon that they intend taking out cabin passengers at 50a head, It is tmpossible in all cases to obtain the lowest steerage rates charged, | as allowances are made in many cases where several tickets are taken by a family, or by a num- ber of iriends who ciub together to make a pool, but it 18 a fair surmise that no tickets have been The number of passengers im the steerage leaving ae will probably be one of the largeston record. The cabin ist 1s algo unvsnally large, on account of the com- parative cheapness of living in Europe compared with the rates cuarged in fashionable watering | places in this country. | TO-DAY'S FLEET. | The following are the names of the steamers | which leave this port for Europe this afternoon :— sold at iess than $il. in Dickens’ | Steamship Companies—Interesting De- | assenger | NEW YORE CITY.

Mrs. Harrison, sixty-three years of age, whose | iness from cholera morbus was noticed in these columns yesterday, died at an early hour yesterday morning, at her place of residence, No. 100 Orange street. A burial permit was granted by Dr. Watt, | Recorder of Vital Statistics of the Board of Health, | ona certificate of death from sporadfe cholera. The authorities claim that these cholera scares are |-of yearly occurrence, and cholera morbus of a severe type is frequently mistaken by tnexpe- | rienced medtcal men for the genuine Asiatic type of the dread disease. Dr. Hutchinson, one of the | Health Commissioners, said that he had not per- sonally investigated the case of Mrs, Harrison, but trom other physicians he understood the case was simply @ severe form of cholera morbus, “The health of Brooklyn,” he said, ‘is very good, Much better than it was last year at this time. | The streets are cieaner, and the coolness | of the temperature has aided in_ keeping the public health in much Detter condition. We generally expect about this season a considerable Inortaiity {rom cholera infantum, but so jar the disease has not made its appearance to any great extent. A pernicious custom has been pursued, | however, tn piling the fetid matter taken trom | the sewers in the street. This matter ts allowed | to dry and the car companies use the sand to re- pair their tracks. The Board bas ordered the ple to be stopped forthwith. The line of | Third avenue has been specially amMicted in this way. In the main, the city is much cleaner than it Has been before in some years. Individualcases of Asiatic cholera occur almost every year in large | communities, and are brought on by some pecullar condition of the patient's system, aided by outside causes, The disease never prevails generally un- less itis conveyed in the atmosphere, Last year it made its appearance in the West, neginning at cording to e city ot Kew. ‘the issue of | Rhein, for Southampton and Bremen; California, |New Orleans and moving westward until it for Glasgow; Canada, for Liverpool; ‘Washington, | reached ae the State of Virginia, There is for Havre; City of Montreal, for Liverpool; Bri- | not the slightest danger of the disease a8 an epi- tannic, for Queenstown and Liverpoo}—all of , demie in Brooklyn.”” Which Wiil take @ large number of passengers, THE LAST OF THE COURTIERS. {From the Tribane.] Mr. Nast has adhered to Grant so tenaciously | through thiek and thin, making him appear always | obstinate persistency in weak and bad appoint- ments, that the public had begum to suspect the artist of a toadying disposition, and to believe that it was as impossible for him to see anything wrong in the object of his admiration as for tne average postmaster to comprehend the idea of fallibility In the appointing power, But it seems the Richardson “promotion” and the Shepherd appointment were the last feather; they broke the back of the most faitiful and devoted camel; and, 80 today, under the artist's pencil, Grant is no hero, but @ very maudiin person cowering before an angry Columbia, A FORGED ORDER.

BURGLARS AT WORK IN WILLIAMSBURG, During the week past a number of burglaries have been committed on the houses of families who have left the city for the country, the thieves in every fhstance escaping without hindrance from the police, Among the houses entered by burglars and reported to the potice was the residence of Mr. J. FP. Healy, No. 148 South Fourth street, Wil- lia@maburg, where the thieves succeeded in carrying of valuables to the amount of $500, Another bar- gary, was committed on tue residence of Thomas F. jackson, No, 162 Taylor street, where but little plunder was obtained, owing, no doubt, to ine fact that the robbers became frightened and hv ried away. Both of the above premises were ¢n- | tered by prying open the basement doors, | LCAG ISLAND. A young sca of the Rev.

Various Plans to Reorganize the Com- pany—What the First Mortgage Bond holders Mean To Do. ‘The first mortgage bondholders of the New York and Oswego Midiand Railroad held a meeting yes- terday afternoon in Room 2% of the Cooper Insti- tute. About $5,000,000 were represented. Mr. L. H. Meyer, chairman of the committee appointed atthe last meeting, submitted a lengthy report, which favors the conversion of the present issues In due order or rank of priority into new preferred and common stock. New mortgage bonds for so much as may, at par, be needed to cover the pre- ferences shall be issued. While the operating expenses under the receivership, Bays the report, are Fodueed to @ figure about oqual (4 ‘the gross carnings, they still do not—or did not for the past aix monghs—cover the rent due to the leased lines. he right of is exceedingly defective, and the exact position of the company cannot be ascertained simply for want of means to get possession of papers which are now held by counsel, wo ‘will. not allow their inspection tull he is A sound plan of reorganization must uceds cover, fret sou) at lon ny nes cover, a the existiug preferences or such as shall be so deeuied b the Court; secand, such other cash outlay as bond- shall make in the interests of the holders have vu property: third, a margin to provide means for future necessities In its present condition the road cannot be operated profitably. The report also recommends a thorough investi- gation of the affairs of the company, and that the bondholders assess themselves for a sufficient cash amount to prevent a forfeiture of the leases, to person to make a@ thorough examination and to Teport thereon and attend, through counsel. to the pending tax assessments, and also to deiray such other incidental expenses as are unavoMable. It finally suggests an assessment of $15 tor every $1,000 bond, or one and a haif per cent. . Plennerhasser objected to the adoption of the report as being much too indefinite. He thought this was a scheme which might swamp them. THEIR ROAD WAS A WRECK and he did not want todo anything unfjil he had satisfied himself of the future possibilfties of the enterprise. He was ready. nowever, to join the committee in having the bonds put up so that they ceiver certificates were Of doubtful legality, and they could not be sold to-day at fitty cents tor the dollar. There was no necessity for creating any priorities, but moderate assessments on the mort betes would be far preferable. . Mr thought it would be premature to issue any obligations.whatever, as it would pro- bably take five years before the road would earn anything over its necessary expenses. Mr. George Opdyke said it would be more proper for the committee to offer a complete plan of money. A long discussion ensued and yrs Mr. H R, Low moved that Messrs. Opdyke, Hasfer and Pren- nerhasser be added he committee and in- structed to prepare anew plan. The road could be saved if an immediate reorganization were effected, and the new committee could harmonize all the bondholders and reconcile all interests, The yeas and nays were called and the motion Bike ey unanimously.
