Max Feder was yesterday held in $1500
bail by Alderman Kerr for swindling three
parties by means of the "secret game. Max
and a man named Cohen acted in eon junction.
The plan of operation was for Cohen to go to
a place, order abont $30 worth of the game,
and'tell the proprietor he wonld call for it that
day. Feder wonld then come along, sell to
the storekeeper what Cohen had ordered, and,
. of conrse, Cohen wonld never call for it, and
the shopkeeper was swindled. The men have
obtained considerable money in this way.

OBITUARY.
Elcazar Lord, D.
The old New Yorkers are disappearing.
Those who stood at the laying of so many
corner-stones will soon have gone with their
quaint stories, their traditions, and their
well-earned honors. The busiest
of us need not grudge one
quick glance after their retreating
forms. Who will not stop long enough by
the funeral train to say: ''God rest the soul
of him that has done anything worth lasting?"
The brothers of Mr. Eleazer Lord have long
been well known among us as citizens of
wealth and undisputed position, lie himself
withdrew, many years sinoe, from public af
fairs to his quiet home at Piermont. Here
he passed a serene old age in pursuits con
genial to his literary and religious tastes. He
died June 3, at the age of 84.
Mr. Lord was born in Franklin, Conn.,
September 9, 1788, and began business in
this city in 181G. He had received a thorough
education, with the purpose of becoming a
clergyman, which was thwarted by the failure
of his sight. He entered business life with a
trained mind, enriched by foreign travel and
intimate association with some of the noblest
and most distinguished men in England and
on the Continent.' He was aotive in the
formation of benevolent societies, and
was a leader in great undertakings.
The Educational and Foreign Evangelical
Societies owed much, at the beginning, to
his efficient co-operation, and he was the first
to suggest the Sunday-school Union and the
Home Missionary Society. The Sooieties for
the Promotion of Industry, for the Prevention
of Pauperism, and others, shared his oounsel
and aid. Banking, currency, and trade were
subjects of close study in his early manhood,
and afterwards often occupied his thoughts
and pen. For some years succeeding 1619,
he threw himself into the cause of protection.
By personal influence he induoed Henry Clay,
then Speaker of the House of Representa
tives, to investigate the subject more fully
than he had done, and to avow
himself in opposition to free trade.
On his return from Washington,
the merchants of New York and Philadelphia
recognized his services by dinners, testimo
nials, etc. wmie President or the Alanhat
tan Fire Insurance Company, ' from 1821 to
1834, he introduced important changes in the
' whole system of insurance the division of
risks, reinsurance, and uniformity of pre.
miams, which were widely adopted. With
Governor Clinton and others, Mr. . Lord was
active in helping forward the internal im
provements from whioa New York has already
gathered a rich karvest. In preparing the
publie mind lor tne ii.rie uauroad enter
rrise, in procuring a charter and the first
nbscrirtions in land and stock, his ace no v.
through the press and other legitimate chan
nels, was confessedlvlindispensable. Darin or
the few years while he was President, the
affairs of the Erie lload were managed with
scrupulous fidelity. The change of policy
which ensued was aoon mariea oy great eon
fusion and lesses, involving the wreok of his
din and . many other private fortunes,
Rarely has a noble undertaking, commenced
Lv thoughtful men of elevated views aad
strict integrity, been doomed to grosser per.
vertiinn arid abuse.
Mr. Lord's essays had much Influence in
effecting those changes in the banking sys
tem of this State wmcn protected It. in a
laro Wrf, from the disastrous fluctuations
n or --i -
of previous years. During the late war his
letters on the same subject attracted the
attention of the Secretary of the Treasury at
Washington, with whom he held a full pri
vate correspondence, and by whom several of
his hints were adopted in the measures suited
to the exigencies of the time. '
The activity and sweep of his mind were
quite unusual. In the press of business life
be kept up with seientiflo and philosophical
research, contributing valuable artioles on
those subjects to various quarterlies. Ilia
books, though not of a popular kind, embody
the results of profound and discriminating
thought on the gravest themes. In his prime
he was at once the elegant gentleman, the
accomplished scholar, the upright business
man, the liberal giver, the successful pro
jector of comprehensive schemes for the
public good, and, to the last, he was an exem
plary Christian. N. Y. 1'ribunc.
FOREIGN NOTEis.
The time of flirtation with the Roman
hierarchy seems well over in Prussia. During
the war and before the elections his pious
Excellency von Muhler was allowed to wink
at all sorts of unheard-of measures taken by
the bolder among the Catholio bishops, in
defiance often of the law. Now, however,
more especially since the late proceedings of
the compact Catholio party in the German
Parliament, the Government appears no
longer inclined to look on quietly at certain
interferences with the schools, high and low,
such as had crept in since the infallibility
dogma. Among the steps taken to stop the
great zeal of the converted bishops is a de
cree issued by the Ceblentz "Schul-Colle-gium"
in He matter of certain so-called
" Marianic Congregations." This seems
a kind of pious institution, to which
the pupils of the gymnasiums were
told off during the few hours left to them for
their recreation in order to listen to certain
exhortations and to undergo special devo
tional exercises, which, however good they
might have been for their souls, certainly did
not do their young bodies much good, and
which, considering the amount of time already
allowed in Roman Catholio gymnasiums for
religious purposes, seemed in the long run to
exceed the proper limits. Another no less
important decree on the part of the Govern
ment refers to the publication of ecclesiasti
cal edicts in the classes without the speoial
permission of the heads of the respective
schools. This practice is prohibited for the
future. Those halcyon days when the Roman
archbishops and bishops want "hand-in-hand"
with Herr Muhler, the Protestant Cultus-Min-ister,
are evidently over. Biamarck is back.
Switzerland too, it seems, has her Dol
lingers. Mr. Egli, pastor at the penitentiary
of Lucerne, has dared openly to defy the in
fallibility dogma. Instead of reading out
the passage regarding it contained in the
episcopal emanation forwarded to him, he
spoke to his congregation of its utility, hav
ing first made it as clear as possible to his
hearers what this dogma meant in reality.
At the same time he informed his bishop of
this step, telling him among other things
that he had never been false to his principles
in his whole life, and that he intended to take
hia honor spotless to his grave. The "serpent-wise
shirking and getting out by back
doors" in order to hide one's real opinions
and to avoid disagreeable consequences had
always seemed to him, he said, unworthy of
an honest man, and so forth. In reply to
thia there came the usual "time to con
sider," and this being past, the anathema, in
accordance with chapter iv of the constitution
containing the "definition" of the Infalli
bility, which reads "Si quia autem huio nostne
definition! contradicere, quod Deua avertat,
prffsumpserit, anathema sit." The Lucerne
Government endeavored to make peace be
tween the bishop and the heretic, but in vain.
The bishop, on the contrary, desired that the
Government should dismiss Egli from his
post, while Egli declared to the Government
that he must stioK to Lis protest, but tnat ne
was ready, considering that there might be
believers in that dogma among his flock, to
get a substitute for the present. Thereupon
the authorities of Lucerne resolved that they
could never think of interfering with either
layman or priest for his want of belief in the
new dogma of Papal Infallibility, more espe
cially in the case of a clergyman protesting
against a doctrine which bad not been a doc
trine of the Catholio Church at the time of
his ordination. It remains to be seen what
steps the Episcopate now will or can take
after this hrm and ominous decision of the
supreme authority of the canton.
In the liritibn House ol Commons re
cently Sir H. Storks gave some interesting
information both as to the liritisn ambulance
service and recent military experience on the
subject. A committee was appointed by the
War Omce to investigate the question, and
make some calculations as to the proportion
of men likely to require removal from the
field of battle. The percentage of wounded
men varies considerably, according to the
nature of the fighting. At Koniggratz 4 "JO per
cent, of the whole force of the Prussians were
wounded, and 928 of the Anstriaus en
gaged. At Magenta the i rench had 07 per
cent, wounded, and the Austrians 7 '05. On the
other hand, the casualties are often on a much
more serious scale. At Waterloo the British
force had 1770 per cent, wounded, and
during the civil war in the United . States
1251 per cent, of the Federals were wounded
at Shiloh, 1852 at Chickamauga, 1103 at
Gettysburg, and l'J20 at Wilderness. On
the Confederate side the reported casualties
were much nigner, but the committee re
mark that neither the numbers engaged nor
those wounded were ascertained correctly,
The casualties in the battles round Metz in
August were on a similarly high scale. The
mean of these figures gives 1570 per cent, of
the strength, and the committee fixes 1G per
cent, as the lowest percentage of wounded
for whom provision should be made. Half
of this number could probably make their
way to the nearest dressing place on
foot, leaving 8 per cent, to be removed
from the field on stretchers and wagons,
and subsequently carried to the nearest
field hospitals. The committee further esti
mated that thia may require each wagon to
travel a distance of nve miles to the rear,
and that it can make two trips & day, or
twenty miles in all, even over indifferent
roads. A wagon can carry six men each trip,
or twelve men a day. Bach being the basis
of calculations, the intention of the War
Office is to have a hospital corps for service
durins peace, and a war corps to tend the
the wounded after an aotion. The Army
Hospital Corps (at present in two parts) will
be reorganized as a single body, tor tne pur
pose of training men at the hospitals to
attend to the aick and wounded. After allow
ins for foreign garrisons, it is estimated that
about 850 in en of thia corps will be available
in En elan.
It is gratif j ing, sava the VaU MaU Oa.
tttte, to observe the progress which European
civilization is making in Afrioa. The last ad
vices from New Calabar (show that the inhabi
tants of that spot thoroughly appreciate the
good example which has been set them by
their European neighbors, and are, exoept ia
few unimportant particulars, closely model
ling their proceedings on those of the most
civilized countries of other quarters of the
globe. For some time past, we are told, the
New Calabar men have been secretly prepar
ing their forces for a raid into the Eareka
country, partly as ft demonstration of their
strength, and partly to Bee whether the
Bonny men would stand forward as the pro
tectors of the Eurekas which they are bound to
do by treaty. The Bonny men, we are glad
to see, have followed substantially, at least,
the latest European precedent. They did not
cone forward in defense of the Ekreekos.
They have not vet learned to appreciate the
refinement of a "conference with no foregone
conclusion; but this will no doubt come in
time. The New Calabar men accordingly had
the Ekreekas to themselves, and proceeded to
attack them in a thoroughly civilized fashion.
They opened fire on their town with canoe
guns, and bombarded it for some hours.
The slaughter in the crowded town must
have been very great, as every shot told, and,
os the Calabar men's euns were of heavier cali
bre than those of the Ekreekas, their fire was
most effective at a range that was quite out of
the power of the Ekreeka guns. The Calabar
men, being satisfied with the damage they
had done to the Ekreekas (and in the absence
of evidence we have no right to assume that
the damage was less than would have satisfied
a civilized European), drew off their canoes
and returned to New Calabar town. At this
point, one of those little divergences from
European practices we have hinted at took
place. "Sixteen of the prisoners were at
once slaughtered and portioned out like so
much beef or mutton to the principal families
of the town for the purpose of being cooked
and eaten.
