Harland Settled Bath Question for the In the war news fifty years ago this week dispalches from England show- ed that the party advocating English meditation between the North and 'Sonth was active in urging that the time had now arrived for this power to be exercised by the English and other European governments, and there was a rumor in France that ne- gotiations with that ehd in view were under w At the front McClellan was still dig- ging his way towards Richmond and the papers gave hints each day that the next might hear of an important Union success in that field of opera- tions. One Union disaster during the week came in attack upon fortifications at James Island, near Charleston, S. C. in which the Union forces were re- pulseqd with severe loss. It was ru- mored that soma circumstances in connection with the attack would de- mand an investigation and that such a proceeding was probable. The following are extracts from the Bulletin files of June, 1862: Promoted Colonel of the Seventh. June 23, 1862—Lieut. Col. Joseph R. Hawley has been promoted to be colonel of the 7th Connecticut, vice Col. Terry, promoted to be brigadier general. Major George F. Gardner to be lieutenant colonel and Captain Daniel C. Rodman, of Company B, to be major, When the Connecticut Fifth went through Winchester on their return after the retreat, a guard of calvary was stationed around them to prevent their destroving the town. June 24, 1862—Two carloads of sick and wounded soldiers, from the vi- cinity of Washingten, went through the city this morning on the steam- beat trai bound for the Massachu- setts hospitals.

June 25, 1862—For a week past there has been a quiet asng the lines of the army investing Richmond, which has been as oppressive as the ominous calm that oftens precedes the bursting of the furious summer storm. Inch by Inch McClellan has dug his way towards the threatening entrench- saments that guard the rebel capital. It is hinted that Gen. Burnside, with his army and gunboats, i8 to co-operate with MeClellan by a movemeat on James river and that the command- ing general is only walting to hear the eche of his guns in front of Fort Darling to commence the attack, Mediation Sentiment Abroad, By the arrival of a Royal Mail steamer from Lendon, Bngland, dis- patches are receivad which shew what the feeling in England is towards the war, The Merning Post has ea ar- ticle on the insurmountable difficuities in the reconstruction of the Ameri- can unjon, and cannot believe, even if the federal arms are successful that the seceded states cam be restored te the Union. The Morning Herald, in strong terms asks, How long is Ameri- ca to be indulged and Europe to en- for McClellan to Move on Richmond. Agomti-:ngl.ndmarm Eighth Connecticut—Looking dure, It contends ' that separation is the only basis for peace. It denounc- es Gen. Butler and his proclamation in the strongest terms and says it is enough to enlist the universal sym- paihy for the Bouth. Mr.Beresford Hope writes to the Times in favor of meditation. He claims to have felt the popular pulse in Eagland and as- serts that a great majority of the peo- ple would far rather see the strife terminated by the establishment of the Southern Confederacy. The Man- chester guardian contends that the time for England to Interfere has not vet come, if, indeed, it ever will, and attaches little faith to the French re- ports of negotiations. June 26, 1862—At a meeting of the members of the bar yesterday after- noon, a committee of five, James A. Hovey, Jeremiah Halsey, H. H. Stark- weather, E. B.

In an engagement on James Island, near Charleston, 8. C, the Union forces were repulsed after four hours of hard fighting, and with a loss of 668 kiMed, wounded and missing. A reconnaissance was made on the 16th, General Stevens with 4000 men, was to make an attack at daybreak, while General Wright and Colonel Williams with 3,000 more were to support him. Somehow the movement was delayed an hour and as our troops rushed up a piain field, they were in broad day, and were met by a murderous fire of grape. Two regiments only reached the front—the Eighth Michigan and Seventy-Ninth New York. The Twenty-Bighth Massachusetts broke and scattered, and the Forty-Sixth New York did little better. The first two shots the gunners from the guns, and seme even penetrated the works. Other regimtnts failing to support them had to retire after helding the batery twenty minutes, Meantime, Colonel Wiiliams, coming te their sup- port, was separated from the fort by a mash and exposed {s a severe cross- fire from seme rebel guns in the read, His troeps, Thirteenth and Third Rhode Island, feught nobly and met some loss, For three-quarters of an hour not a gun was fired frem the fort and the prompt presence of 300 men would have carried it; but they were not there and the troops re- tired. was | IN CHARGE OF CAMP OF NEW YORK BOYS Frank H.

Norwich, Westerly and Colchester People Are the Plaintiffs. In the short calendar session of the superior court which was called to or- der here promptly at § o'clock on Fri- day morning, by Judge Marcus H. Hol- { comb, three divorces on the uncontest- ed list were granted. the plaintiffs in the three matters coming from Nor- wich, Westerly and Colchester. A decree was granted to Bessie Uhr Gilbert of Norwich from John Gilbert of parts unknown. The grounds were desertion, and the custody of a minor child, William Lee Gilbert, was given | to the plaintiff. Plaintiff and defend- | ant were married In May, 1907, and he deserted her in August of the next year. George W. Burdick of Westerly se- cured divorce from Suste G. Burdick of | Groton, to whom he was married on | June 30, 1904, the maiden namae of the | defendant being Susie G. Fllott. The | decree was granted on the grounds of | adultery, which it was charged was | committed with Alexander Ferguson | between December, 1909, and Febru- | ary, 1911. The custody of a 5 vear ol | child, George Burdick, was given the plaintiff. | A copy of New London vitar statis- tics was put in evidence, showing the birth of a son in March, 1911, to Alex- ander Ferguson, who is a soldier, and | Susan G. Elliott. Ferguson's residence |is given as Bay City, Mich. This suit was partially heard last week, but the evidence was not con- clusive, and more evidence was sub- | mitted yesterday before the decree was | granted. M. Rasmussen of this city to| was among the witnesses yesterday, testifying that he knew Mrs. Burdick | was living with her father, James El-| husband. Divorce on the grounds of desertion | was granted Michael Cohen of Col-| | chester from Tda Cohen, whose maiden | name was Ida Berwald, and whom he married in February, 1891. She de- serted him on May 25, 1904, and f& now of parts unknown. | Mr. Cohen, who s 70 years old, tes- tifiled that his wife, who is 42, refus- ed absolutely to oome to Colchester from New York, when he removel from the Flg city to live on a farm He sald that he has been operated upon three times in the last few years. The couple have three children, ail em- | ployed in New York city.

With the expansion of capital obli- gations incurred for the acquisition and fnlncing of companpies affiliated with system, New Haven to an in- (‘raesmf degree has become dependent on the item of “other income” in order to show a balance sufficient to cover dividend requirements, says the Bos ton News Bureau. The New York, New Haven and Hartford, in addition to being an operating raliroad, is a holding company. The avenue through which the parent road receives its in- come on funds invested is, of course, “other income.” A comparison of this item in 1904, the fiscal year Mr. Mellen became president, with that of 1911 shows this fundamental change in New Haven in the intervening years: Divs. on stk. Int. on bonds Miscellaneous .. , Other income .... 9,178,528 In 1304 New Hw\rn was a steam railroad purely, the bulk of its $906,- 000" income from other sources” com- ing from stocks of leased roads, which were and are integral parts of the road. In the current fiscal vear to end this month New Haven will have to meet charges of approximately $18,300,000 024 IMZHQA and dividends at the existing eight p?§ of cent. rate of $14,318,000. Amount stock bearing dividends this year $178,979,000. Total dividend and terest requirements will be about § 600,000. In the ten months to April the rail- road had earned 716,863,888 after op- erating expenses and taxes. Assuming that a balance of $4.000,000 is earned in May and June, which is a very lib- eral figure, the steam railroad proper | will contribute less than $21,000,000 toward requirements of over $32,000,- 000. The difference must be made up by “other income. Last vear this item amounted $9,178,929. We understand that this year New Haven's “other income” will be even larger than this figure. In o der to show the regular eight per cent. dividend rute covered it will have to be substantially greater, The principal sources of New Ha- ven's dividends and intsrest receipts in the 1811 year are presented below and show where the road must look to in order that its surplus may even ap- preach its eight per cent. dividend re- quirements to Stock Bk.

This investment paid the parent road ne cash income while in its treasury Thus, it is to the increasing produc- tivity of its underlying properties that New Haven must turn In years to come. The parent road has been able to carry them thus far, and now may expect them to at least “pay their board” and soon to show a substantial profit. Connecticut Patsnts.
