Bartholomew, president of the Charter Oak Life Insurance company and the Union Manufacturing company, hare been in circulation. He was known to have been a large borrower fCn- years, but was supposed to be worth a clean million, and not likely to suffer for his indorsements of Plunkett'x paper for aliout $40,000.

Conductor Harrison and Engineer Urewer Arrested—A Divided Jury. BUFFALO, Sept. 23.—'The coroner's investigation into the Silver Creek disaster wan concluded yenterday at Dunkirk. The superintendent of tlie eastern division of the road and the engineer .of the ill-fated "excursion train were the principal witnesses examined. The jury retired at 8 o'clock to consider the matter, and the Jury returned to the court room and handed in the following verdict: Judge Jenks, in his opinion, holds that the expenses of the commission cannot be so paid, and that the $8,000,000 appropriation must remain intact until the required provision is made by congress, unless the members of the commission are willing to serve without receiving any salaries, and at the same time pay their own bills. It is not thought that they will do this, and that the season will pass without any work on the river improvements. New York, Bartholomew's brother-in-law, cam* ken. *ns supposed to Indicate Bartholomew would have all the temporary aid he needed to carry him through. On Monday Iiurtholomew left town, and it is now learned that he is a defaulter to the amount of over $125,000. Of this sum $105,000 is rash, and there are notes for $12,- 000 and *10,000. Yesterday the Charter Oak Life Iq*uranre company applied for the appointment of a receiver, and Isaac Brook, of Torrington, and Edmund A. R ted man, of Hartford, were appointed. The Charter Oak hits fer yearn been weak, but the immediate cause for this application was the sum owed the company by Mr. Bartholomew. The fact that he was short in hit accounts with the cpmpaiijr to the amount of $105,000 cash Ik made known to the directors by Mr. Banftiiolomew himself on Saturday, but be tali nothing about the nates. The directors inre dumfounded, but agreed to give him time to make the deficit good. On Moaddy morning they discovered two notes, one of $12,000 and the other of $10,000, which Bartholomew had disiotliited about two months ago, and used the procved* for himself and not for the cornpally. Then they called him in aiid asked him to resign, and he did so. The same day he left tosrn, and lias not been seen sinoe. The Charter Oak company is probably totally wrecked. It has property valued at $1,800,474, but much of it is net productive, and a great deal is considered not worth near the aktouat paid for it Its fine building here is heavily mortgaged. Since Flunkett left, tin in i isMpilliii J Mi accounts is said to have showed that paper in which hs and Bartholomew had raised money is out ta the amount of $1,000,000. Tlw ruin of the Charter Oal( company win hardly take with it any other concerns except thoee with which Mr. Bartholomew wpa connected. Bartholomew & Co., brokers, the leading member of the firm being Ueorge W. Bartholomew, a son of G. M. Bartholomew,have been unable to meet their obligations for the past few days, and are expected to make an assignment. Their liabilities are rumored to be nearly $11)0,000. There is a large amount a# G. M. Bartholomew's paper in local banks, but it is believed that all will be able to stand the loss. "The Schuyler Electric Light company, it is believed, will be obliged to Suspend. It has been carried for some time by Bartholomew in putting up expensive plants at Norwalk, Conn., and Richmond, Va. It is thought, however, that it can make a showthat Will enable it to continue. 1%e Connecticut River Banking company has a large amount of both Bartholomew's and Schuyler Electric Light company's paper, and will be forced to sacrifice to tide over, but it is believed to have ample resources to carry it through.. Mr. Bartholomew wasa most secretive man - in aH his business matters, and none of all his associates ever had any knowledge of his affairs. It has been a matter of bank talk for the post twenty years that nobody knew whether he was worth a $1,000,000 or nothing, hot his credit has always stood high. He lived very plainly, and made no pretensions of any sort He has been in business hen for fifty years, was one of the city's most respected citizens, and was connected with its most Important business enterprises. At one .time he indorsed for the Charter Oak company to the extent of $500,000 to carry it over a hard place when no one else was ready to help it. He was president of the Holyoke Water Power company and of- the Union Manufacturing company, and was interested in other local corporations. He managed the Hartford, Providence and Fbnkill railroad for years very successfully as its trustee before its consolidation with the New York and New England railroad. He baa been a heavy endorser for the Hartford Silk company and the Union Manufacturing company, and his liabilities may ■each $000,000.

The moat notable thing in this commandery was their splendid band lad by the most magnificently dressed drum major on the field, Mr. J. M. On, of Pella, la.

At this point Ivanhoe Na 8, of St Louis, appeared mounted in front of the grand stand, with the famous cornet! st, Signor Liberati, as trumpeter. Halting in front of the (tend, he performed a medley of military calls, reveilles, assemblies, etc., whBh brought out storms of applause. /immediately after is De Molay's band marched across the field, playing "Dixie," and the vaat audience rose en masse and cheered itself hoarse. De Mohqr, of Louisville, followed 'with twenty-four men and two officers, aSd gave a magnificent drlD, and marJhed back to thair tents Following this came Zion, of Minneapolis. The attention of the people was ' somewhat distracted from their npsnlng evolutions by St Bernard, of Chicago, which at that moment appeared in a very conspicuous uniform, and marched to their field headquarters. Zion commandery drilled ijrith twenty-four men and their officers, and, notwithstanding tbsy were some time in getting the attention of the audience, they presented a drill which captivated the people. Then Louisville commandery came on to the music of "The Old Kentacky Home," and presented a magnificent drill. Following came St Bernard, of Chicago, with thirty-six men and four officers, preceded by the Thirteenth regiment band, of Hamilton, Ont, playing "Yankee Doodle" as gallantly as if they were not the queen's own tooters. The nobby uniform of the St Bernard's caught the crowd, and every evolution was greeted with rounds of applause. They occupied the full half hour, and put up a drill which neatly oomblnod the Templars' and military drills. Then Detroit came on with fifty-one men and six officers, and presented a drill which was generally considered perfect They covered considerable ground and executed each movement with brilliant rapidity and finished with a sword exerpise, which was a feature of the entire exhibition. The Jackson (Mich.) commandery gave mounted drill, and Raper commandery, of Indianapolis, only occupied a tew minutes in some fancy evolutions, and then Gilmore's band led the procession of all the bands in attendance to a temporary stand, where the united bands, under Professor P. S. Oilmore, entertained the audience with a choice selection of music. Most noticeable of the concert was "America" and the "Star Spangled Banner," rendered with Artillery accompaniment, the guns being set off bgr electricity, and a selection from "D Trovatore," in which the "Anvil Chorus" was introduced.H.
