Itrnnfltf I'rrpnnt-tions for His, Funeral. The aim iiincement In The SVN yestordny m.rrning ot the sudden doath of Rev. W. T. Brantly, D.

whlcli occurred at an irly hour Monday morning, was quite a shock to tho enilre community, and especially so to the niembM-nof thoricventli Baplist Church, of which Dr. Hranlly has been for more than ten years the usU-emed pastor. As stated yesterday morning. Dr. Brantly preached as usual Sunday night, his sermon being one ot a series upon tne life of Paul.

After returning to his home, No, North Eutaw Brantly retired, giving no intimation of feeling at all Indisposed, but shortly after midnight ho anise from bed ami went up stairs Into his study; returned to his bed-chamber, remained a short again went back to his study. Airs. Brantly, aroused by ihe movements of her husband, met him a ho was descending the stairs the second time, and, alarmed at his appnrent lllucss, called their son, Mr. W. Ilrantly, who at omvs summnned Dr.

P. C. Williams, tne family physician, living rear iy. In the meantime Dr. Brantly complalnr-d of pain In the region of tho hi bod, mid expired in a tow minutes br-fore ihe arrival of Dr.

Williams. Doath Is said to resulted frorn angina, peotorls. Pastors of tho various Uaptim churches in the city and mtnlnt'-rs of other- denominations callo.i at the residence yester--day. Rev. James H.

Cuthbert, pastor of tho First Baptist Church, Washington city, a. brother-in-law ot Dr. Brantly, uaine to Baltimore yesterday, and It was arranged that the funeral will uko place at cue o'clock tomorrow afternoon from tho Seventh Baptist Church to Greenmoiint Cemetery. Rev. Dr.

Cuthbert, assisted by Baptist ministers of the city, will officiate, and the jall bearers will be Dr. Milton Hammond, Dr. Judson Oilman, Messrs. A. K.

Boteler, Charles Tyler. Flank T. Grady and Charles M. Koyser, deacons ot the -Seventh Baptist Church. It Is possible United States Senator E.

Brown, of Georgia, who is a member ot the Baptist Churc'i In At- lnnta, Georgia, of which Dr. Brantly was a former pastor, will also be present. Ala meeting of members of the Seventh ip-tlst Church la-st night a preamble aud resolutions were adopted referring lu fitting terms Ut the suddenness of tho summons which VKik Dr. Brantly from his pulpit to his place in Heaven. Ilis life was an Illustration of Christian meekness und boldness, lovo and charity, and all godliness aud continued readiness to die; theretore resolvoi, "that In the sudden, doath of our beloved pastor we recognize tho summous of a loving Lord to his faithful servant, calling him almost from the very act ot labor to the enjoyment of his heavenly reward that we will endeavor to cherish the teachlngn so lovingly and Impressively conveyed by our departed brother, and to follow the example which ho afforded during the ten years ot his connection with this church that our warmcbt sympathies are neroby tendered to the members of the bereaved family, with our prayers that strength and peace and comfort may given them from the throne of heavenly grace; that these proceedings entered upjn the.

record of the church, aud that a copy thereof be sent to tho family." lrotemt Agninst Irois'ntire Scuemr. A number of Howard-street merchants, wjo have exorcised about a rapid transit or elevated railroad bill reported favorably by Mr.Welner from thecommittoo on corporation to the House of Delegates at Annapolis last -week, took steps yesterday to remoiiHtrute. Messrs. Hutzior, Simon, and others on that street started a protest, and in a short lime had the signatures ot nearly every one doing business on Howard street. They hold, with perfect propriety, that Howard street Is a valuable thoroughfare, aud li rapidly growing In favor' for retail trade, and they decidedly protest against having the street vaulted over ir an elevated railroad, which they do not think tf necessary in that section.

The protest WiitJ given to Mr. Greenfield to present to tho Legls- laturc It Is said by some city members that. Ihe scheme got before the Legislature on tho, rapid transit plan without their The bill, which some persons think Is Intended to secure a charter that may some day bo valu--able and will be a good thing to keep on hand, authorizes the construction of elevated railways from Druid Hill Park, through many ot the leading streets; capital Btock, kc. One ot the incorporators named lu the bill, a merchant, said yesterday he did not intend to put money Into it, because he does not put capital into schemes of that character. He did not know much about the matter, but wild -gentleman who Is an officer In an insurance company on South street could tell all about tt.

The fact that names of responsible capitalists are sometimes used as Incorporators In bills to secure charters Is not always evidence that they are largely Interested In the schemos, or that the schemes themselves are either uooes- -eary or practicable. Death of a Venerable Tr test. Rev. Anthony Urban, a venerablo Redemptorlt priest, died yesterday at tho pastoral residence attached to St. James's Cliurch, Alsqulth and Eager streets, in his G9th year.

His disease was enlargement of the heart. He hai been connected with St. James's the past five years, coming thither from St. Charles Hedempiorlst College, at Ilcheter, where he had been a professor for two yar preceding. He caine to this conntry about forty ago and was a itlve of Moravl.

Ho was for a number ot years engaged In holding missions In various cities and towns, and had been stationed at Cumberland, Pittsburg, Philadelphia, Buffalo, Rochester and New York, having been superior ot the Itedemptorlst houses In most of thos cities, and having established the Itedemptorlst community In Cumberland. He waa formerly stationed at St. Alphonsus Church, In this city, and at the satne time he served St. James's congregation before th" erection of the present church edifice. St.

Jamos'a bell waa tolled at 2 P. Immediately after his doath. Father Urban was a most genial companlou, and his conversation was very entertaining. A Committer, representing the coal com--paules operating lu Marylaud, went troin Bal -tl more yesterday to present an ultimatum to-the miners. It is proposed to reduce the rates from 65 cents to 50 cents a ton for mining, anil from $2 60 to $1 75 a day tor drivers.

It Is understood thecoal companies have all enteredi Into combination on this schedule, and also that they have made arrangements with tho. railroads to Indemnify them as common riers for refusing to carry coal which may be offered by Independent or newly-started iu inliiir enterprises. Heretofore the miners have dictated terms and eutorced them through their trade organizations. The companies Iwivlmr uow combined, It will be a question ot 5 a .10 Cldv. .00 Cldv.

Special Dispatch to the Balt'more Sun. The Sutrar Case leeided Republicans Mustering: Their Forces 'I he Proposed Stale or Dakota Strong Partition Walls to He Broken Down, AN IMPORTANT DECISION. Washington, March 6. In the Supreme Court today Justice Bradley delivered the opinion of the court In the case of E. A.

Merrltt, col-loctor, vs. Samuel Welsh et al commonly known as the "sugar case." Mr. Welsh and other sugir Importers brought suit asralnst Mr. Merrltt to recover an alleged excess of duties assessed on five cargoes of sugar Imported from Cuba In 1879, on the ground that they were all below No. 7 Dutch standard In color, and were only charg able with a duty of cents per pound ami the 25 per cent, provided for by the act of 1875.

The collector, however, under Instructions from the Treasury Department, charged 2 cents per pound on some of tbe cargoes and 2Jf cents on others, in addlilon to the 25 per cent, mentloued above. This action was taken upon tho assumption that the sugars In question had been colored so as to reduce them below the grade, as fixed by tho Dutch standard, to which they properly belonged, as shown In chemical tests by the polariscope. The Supreme Court holds that tho dutiable quality of sugars is to be decided by their actual color, graded by the Dutch standard, and not by their saccharine strength as ascertained by chemical tests. The act of Congress prescribes the color test, and the Treasury Department has no authority to apply the chemica test or any other test. If under the Improved processes of manufacture the color test has become of little value, It is lor Congress to apply the remedy.

The excessive duties paid by Importers under the polnrlscope theory will be refunded to them, -as this ease was by general understanding regarded as a test case. It is said that there are about $3,000,000 locked up now wait ng for the decision of the Supreme Court, which must be returned to the importers from whom it was illegally exacted. Mr. Sherman's ruling had a mot disastrous effect upon sugar importationsatBaltlmore, and sugar Importers geuerally wore much aiinoy and embarrassed. Several repr sentaiives of the sugar Interest ot the country were here today, and expressed much gr iiiilcailon at the decision of the Supreme Court.

Tel grams were sent to leading sugar men in Baltimon and elsewhere, advising ihem of tho de. isi and urging them to come to at once and join in another effort before the committee on ways and means to sec-ire such a revision of tho Mugar tariff as will make the law too plain for any successor of Mr. Sherm.in to follow his example. TWO NEW SENATORS WANTED. All republican ab-entees of the House have been requested to return promptly, and republicans who are paired are requested to give notice of -rmlnation of their pairs, as the full republican strength Is desired to be concentrated to force through the new rule relative to the business on the calendar.

The main otiject of the new rule Is said to be to give the opportunity to force through the bill tor the admission of Dakota as a Siate, and thus add to the republican strength In the two houses. A SECLUDED DEPARTMENT. Since the occupancy of the new State, War and Navy Department building much Inconvenience has resulted from the fact that although under one roof, Inside communication between the State and the other two de-pariments is absolutely cut off by the Interposition of solid walls. This was done at the instance of Mr. Fish, who cari l-'d his xclU9ive ideas into everything, and the present Secretary ot State is of tho same opinion, and says the quiet and privacy which are necessary to the proper conduct of business in the Slate Department would be interfered with and endangered If tree communication was had with the other departments.

He also objects that continuous corridors from one end of the-building lo the other would be made a promenade of visitors. But the Secretary Warand the Secretary of the Navy are heartily in favor of removing the partition walls on the different floors, and having unobstructed corridors, both for reasons of convenience and of health. The House com mil tee on public buildings and grounds, which has been considering the matter, agrees with the Secretaries of War and the Navy. In deference, however, to the Ideas of the Secretary of State, the committee recommend that the walls, when removed, shall be replaced with iron latticed or wired gates, to be closed except during office hours, and to be placed lu charge of the Secretary, State. A MERITORIOUS CLAIM.

The committee ou ways and means, In recommending the allowance of af 127 09, paid by Mr. Taylor, collector of the port of Annapolis, to Briscoe, surveyor of customs at Nottingham iu 1871, take occasion to comment severely upon the conduct of the then assistant secretary of the treasury. This official notified Mr. Taylor that Briscoe, who had beeu mml-naied and confirmed as surveyor, had duly qualified. Mr.

Taylor thereupon paid him his salary. Subsequently he was notified by the commissioners of customs that Briscoe had not executed a bond or filed his official oath, and therefore the payment to him was disallowed. The committee say this official carelessness of the assistant secretary was inexcusable, and if the government was losing anything by the allowance, he ought to be held to make good the loss. APPOINTMENTS IN THE POSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT. In answer to a resolution of the House of Representatives the Postmaster-General has transmitted a list ot appointments, removals, made In his department during tha incumbency of his predecessor, Mr.

James. It appears that one appointment, that of a colored messenger, was made at the request of Mr. Conkling, four at the requestor Mr. Blaine, one for President Garfield, and one each for Mrs. Mahouo and Mrs.

Logan. Several appointments were made for democratic Senators, but tho Maryland Senators and members seem to have had no influence as none of the appointments are credited to them. THE BANKRUPTCY BILL. The bill for a national banKrupt system reported by the Senate judiciary committee today, omits several of the features suggested by the chambers ot commerce of the dlff-rent cities. As said on the floor of tho Senate this afternoon, the bill, If It should ever be enacted into law, will be a perfect bonanza for tbe lawyers, but creditors of bankrupts will be left In the lurch much more than they were under the act of 1807.

Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.1 The Pope's FncycUeal An Appeal lor Fidelity to the Church. New York, March full text of Pope Leo's encyclical of February 17 to the Italian prelates has been received. Reviewing the afflictions of the church, the Pope says: ''The gatherings of religious sodalities are taken away; the properties of the church are sequestrated; marriages are ratified without Calhollc rites; no place Is left to ecclesiastical authority In the schooling of youth: the Roman pontiff Is driven to extreme straits; for if he bo robbed of his civil principality he must needs pass under the jurisdiction aud power of a foreign government, and the most august of Christian cities, is stripped and laid open to whatever enemies of the Church, polluted by proTane novelties and schools aud tempies dedicated to heretical rites. Over and ab ive, it Is reported she is to receive, coming to a council and gathering of some kind In this present year, delegates and heads of the sect most hostile to CatTiolic welfare." The Pope urges that "societies may be Increased and flourish in number, in co-operation and in the accomplishment of works; that In these the principal object may bo the holding and stirring up of care for faith and of the other Christian virtues; of these are associations ot youth, of laboring men, and such as are for gathering Catholics in meetings held at stated times, or In solacing the poor, the religious observation of holy days, tho instruction of child renl of the poorest many others of the same kltid; and as It Imports in the highest degree for tho Catholic weal that the Ronvn pontiff should be, and be known to be, free from all peril, annoyance anl difficulty, let these associations strive by remonstrance and by every form of action within ihe law for the cauo of the Pope.

Let them endeavor and do, nor take rest till there is restored to us that liberty, in fact and not In with which, as In a compulsory bond Is Joined not only the Church's good, buta favorable course of Italian government and the tranquillity ot Christian nations." He also urges the encourasenient ot Caihollc literature and the active circulation of writings replying to and exposing attacks upon the Church, and in favor of Its restoration to its place and dignity in the State. SDOClal Dispatch to tho Baltimore Sun.l CJeneral Assembly or Vlrcinla. CLOSE OF THE REGULAR SESSION PROCLAMATION OF THE GOVERNOR CALLING AN EXTRA SESSION. Richmond, March 6. The regular session ot the General Assembly came to a close tonight at 10 o'clock, and that body adjourned sine die.

Upon announcing the adjournment each presiding offi er had rea by the clerk a proclamation of Gov. Cameron convening the General Assembly in extra seislon at 12 noon tomorrow. The Governor states that Important matters of legislation have been left unfinished by the constitutional termination of the session, and he therefore deemed 'hat the interests of the Commonwealth demand that It be reconvened.) The extra session of the Lglslature called by the Governor tonight is expected to be ono of the most Interesting and exciting held here for some time. The Governor's course In reconvening this body was not unexpected. Among the most Important measures to come up at the extra session are th bills to reapportion the State for members of Conzress and re-dlstr'ct the Judicial circuits.

In which it is proposed to reduce the number of circuits from eighteen to fourteen. There are, of course, other schemes the readjusters hope to bo able to push through looking to the perpetuation ot their power. Those designated, however, are tho most important. The reapportionment bill 1s already pending in the Senate, and will no doubt be the first one which the leaders will attempt to push through. It has never been formally approved of by their caucus, but has been submitted In person to most of the readjuster members.

The democratic party anticipate no serious difficulty In defeating tho adoption of this pet scheme ot Mahone's. The overoeir-ing manner of Senator Rlddleberger and some other leaders on the same side is not calculated to make some of th" readjusters feel particularly friendly to tho bosses. Both houses will reassemble tomorrow at noon. AH of the bills which fatlod to pass at this session will have to be Introduced again as new matter. Special Dispatch to the Baltimore Sun.l Gov.

Among the bills on his desk is that giving seven days' leave of absence to the memb-rs of the Baltimore police force, and that requlrtng seats to be provided for female employes. They have both been on his desk for more than six days. It Is reported that House bill amending the insolvent laws is creating some opposition among Baltimore merchants, who, It is said, will hold a meeting In a day or two to protest against its passage.

Bnrniiisr or Prince Frederick, Calvert County Fourteen Building's Destroyed Courthouse and Methodist Church in Ruins Valuable Records Go tie laoss 950,000.

Reported for the Baltimore Sun. The village of Prince Frederick, the county seat of Calvert, county, was nearly destroyed by fire last Friday evening, and of eighteen buildings of different descriptions In the placa only three remain, besides a log Jail. Among the burned buildings were a new Methodist Episcopal church and parsonage, the courthouse, the Brentford House hotel, the store of J. W. Shemwell the law offices of Jos.

A. Wilson, John P. Briscoe and John B. Gray, and the dwelling of S. R.

King. News of the conflagration did not reach Baltimore until yesterday morning, as there was no mail connection sooner, md that section of the State has no telegraph communication. The steamer Wenonah, of the Weeins Line, from the Patux-eut route, arrived last evening at Light street with a number of Calvert couuty passengers, several ol whom were witnesses ot the burning of Prince Frederick. From these and from Mr. Thomas B.

Gourley, purser of the Wenonah, a statement of the disaster was obtained. The lire started with the Methoulst Church, Rev. J. P. Wilson, pastor.

The edifice, a neat structure of wood, was to have been dedicated last Sunday, and workmen were putting the finishing touches on the interior, the pastor being also present. It is said that a child, son of the minister, playing outside with matches among some shavings, accidentally started the fire, and a3 a high northwest wind was blowing, the flames spread rapidly, and in an incredibly short space of time nearly the entire village was laid in ashes. The Methodist Episcopal parsotiagi, adjoining the new church, and occupied by liov. Mr. Wilson and family, was soon destroyed, and the occupams saved nothing, not even their wearing apparel.

Next the wind carried burning shingles a quarter of a mile distant to the dwelling occupied by Mr. S. R. King, which was burned. Mr.

King every thing. Including a sum of money. The flre then t.e-came general, involving the hotel, coutttiouse, law offices, Journal newspaper office, storehouses ot Shemwell In an hour and a-half, or by dusk, the place was lu aslies except the jail, which is a log structure in rear of the courthouse, the dwellii gs of Mrs. Dowell and Mr. Shemwell, and an old house built by Judge Magruder.

Mr. Somervllle Sollers, clerk of the county court, was In his office in the courthouse, and saved some papers, but with those exceptions all the county records were lost. Every book and paper in the county commissioners' office and in the office of the register of wills were burned up. In the clerk's office all the original papers were lost, and a great many records, running as far back ns 1650, and many papers of great interest relating to the early history of the county. These records and papers were Invaluable, and their loss will cause inconveniences and expenses that will be felt for many years.

The courthouse was a brick structure, built in 1818 to replace one tiiat stood on the river batik and was burned by the British In 1813, after the records had beirn removed by the county authorities, however. The Brentford Hous, the hotel that was burned, was built a dozen years ago by Judge Daniel R. Magruder, at a cost of about $30 0UJ, and it was the finest hotel in Southern Maryland. It was named for Judges Brent and Ford, who were the associates of Judge Magruder on the bench. Mrs.

Johnson, who had charge of the hotel, lost a great many things. Rev. J. H. Chesley, rector of St.

Paul's P. E. parish, who boarded at the hotel, lost clothing and his entire library, a most serious mishap to him, as he cannot replace it without assistance. The other Loarders, Mr. Somervllle Sollers and wife, Miss Sollers, Mrs.

R. D. Sollers and Mr. John B. Gray, all met with serious losses.

It was stated that Mrs. Somervllle Sollers had $11,000 In bonds burned up with her effects. It was understood there was an insurance of $7,500 on the notel, but none on the furniture. Messrs. Wilson, Briscoe and Gray lost very valuaole law books and private papers In the destruction of their offices.

Mr. Briscoe estimates his loss at $1,000 in law books and office, and he had a $700 piano burned up In the he had boarded until recently. There was an insurance of $275 on the Journal building, but none upon press, type, etc. Messrs. Parran Sollers, proprietors of the Journal, will at once proceed to re-establisli tne paper with mew type and press, and will send out as quickly as possible, as they say, a better paper than the old one.

Messrs. J. W. Sh'-mwell Bro. lost their entire stock of goods, but the loss is covered by an Insurance of $4,000 in a Montgomery county and in a Baltimore office.

A dog much prized by Mr. Shemwell ran back Into the burning storehouse! after being rescued, and the animal was burned up. The new Methodist Church cost and It Is said the Insurance had run out. The parsonage was Insured for $1,500. The house occupied by Mr.

King and owned by Judge Magruder whs valued at $2,003. Mr. Jos. A. Wilson loses $1,000.

The jail made a narrow escape from destruction. The only prisoner was liberated and assisted the citizens at the flre. Miss Edith Dowell, postmistress, saved the stamps and postal cards and a sewing machine from the posioflice. The loss by the flre Is estimated at $50,000, and Is a calamity from which Prince Frederick will not emerge for a long time to come. Senator Bond, of Calvert, who came to Baltimore last evening from the scene of destruction, said the county commissioners met yesterday to take steps for securing courthouse and record office room.

A new courthouse will be built, but it will be next to Impossible to carry on the business until the assessment and other papers are supplied. He -said the people could not recover easily from such a disaster, and Prince Frederick will not stion have another fine hotel. Shemwrll Bro. will goon with their business in other quarters In the village. On Sunday county people from many miles around visited the scene of destruction and carried home relics.

Senator Bond says pieces of partly burned paper were found four miles from the place, where the high wind had carried them. Melted type metal ran out into the street from the newspaper office. Rev. Mr. Wilson and family came to Baltimore last eveuing.

They have the sym-pathv of the people of Calvert In their distress. The Calvert Journal dated last Saturday was issued on Friday before the fire, and was mailed to subscribers. Prince Frederick, like many country towns, was built all on one road. It Is 23 miles irom Drum Point, Calvert county, and 20 Friendship, on the border between Calvert and Anne Arundel, and Is on the plateau between the Chesapeake Bay and the Patuxent river, and four miles from each, entering from the north. The first building on the left side of the road is Dowell's residence, then Sham-well's, both of which escaped.

On the same side, in the order named, were the old Calvert County Journal office, Joseph A. Wilson's law office, the new Journal office, Shamwell's store, a shoe store, John P. Briscoe's law office, John T. Gray's law office, the hotel and outbuildings, and on tiie extreme south the Magruder estate of 140 acres, tenanted by Silas King. On the right-hand side, coming Irom the north, the first building was the new Methodist Church, where the flre began.

It was opposite the old Calvert County Journal office, adjoining it the parson-age, and to the south was the courthouse. Back of the courthouse, and removed from the public street, was the Jail, which escaped. Tne northwest wind, it will be seen, could r.ot have done otherwise than cause a dreadful havoc under these circumstances, and owing to the inflammable nature of the buildings. A careful count of buildings and outbuildings toots up fourteen destroyed. Judge Magruder, who resides in Annapolis, comes in for a large amount of sympathy, as he Is the heaviest loser.

Siews Aotes. Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, while delivering a lecture in Music Hall, Chicago, last evening before a large audience, was taken suddenly 111. He stood mute tor a moment, and then reeled as If about to fall. Gentlemen who were sitting on the stage rushed to his assistance and led him to a chair.

There was great excitement in the hall, and Prof. Swing stepped forward, announced tint Mr. Beecher was unable to continue his lecture and dismissed the audience. Mr. Beecher had been feeling unwell for several days, and when in the midst of his lecture was overcome by a fainting spell.

Mr. Beecher was taken to his hotel, and at 11 M. he was reported to be much better. Hon. Sydney Mudd, member of the Maryland House of Delegates from Charles county, who was married in Baltimore to Miss Ida Griffin, daughter of Walter Griffin, of Prince George's county, arrived lu Annapolis last night with his bride, and received the congratulations of his fellow-me mbers at the Marylaud Hotel.
