The general improvement in business the past year, with the prospect el a very large in
creased demand for all kinds of Dress Goods, induced nil American buyers of Foreign Goods te
place immense orders. This was universally the case, se much se that, perhaps without exag
geration, 90 per cent, mere goods were imported than the country could possibly consume. As
a consequence, there has been a great break in prices in a great many fabrics, which wc s'jall

WORTHY TO 3IEET R0WELL.
JOHN HUGHES liEATINt THE RECORD
WITH SIX. HOURS TO SPAKE.
rinisliiii Leisurely with the Unequalled
Score of 5(58 8-8 .Mile. Albert Winning
Second i'lacc Heward Urekeu Down
Late in Use Struggle l'relits of
the Leading Men.
New Yerk Sun.
Jehn Hughes appeared ea the track for
his sixth day's work in his extraordinary
race Saturday morning at 12:e:j, after a
short rest of two hours. lie could net
have slept much, for he had taken a bath.
and otherwise refreshed himself. His time
of sleep for the six days, according te his
trainer's account, has net exceeded three
hours.
Hughes at once struck a gait of eleven
minutes te the mile, which late of speed
lie maintained for a long distance. At this
time Heward was only 12 miles behind
Hughes, while Albert trailed a mile in the
rear of Heward, their scores .standing at 1
o'clock ; Hughes 500 miles ; Heward 188,
and A lbert 487. These men new began the
most desperate struggle of the week.
First Heward would race Hughes at the
top of his speed mile after mile, hanging
t the tough Irishman like a shadow.
Then Albeit took up the run in a mere
nimble manner than the Englishman, aiid
showed mere tenacity. It was the only
persistent attempt te break Hughes down
since the start. Some two thousand .spec
tators were in the hall, remaining through
out the forced race for hours. Their
cheers, yells and shouts of encouragement
te the walkers rolled up in almost un
broken succession. Hughes glided ahead
en will power alone, making lap te lap
with his rivals, seemingly gaining vigor
instead of losing ground, as his antagonists
hoped lie would.
This race used up the Englishman. le
twecn i and 0 a. m. he disappeared for an
hour, having, finished 5(!0 miles and him
self, lie had reached this ligure at
4 when Hughes had t miles te his credit
and Albert' 41)0.
Heward made repeated struggles after
litis, but his right knee
was taken with cramps
jave out and he
in his stomach.
His trainers and backers twisted iiftcen
additional miles out of him by neon, when
he was obliged te (juit. the track entirely.
At this time the scores of the only men
really in the race were: Hughes, 510
miles; Albert, e'l; Vint, H ; ICrehne,
52-1.
Twe hours and a half later Heward
limped out of the building. An old gen
tleman cairied hiscarpet. hag and a few
boys kept at his heels.
Happy Jack Smith, who lias had the
care of Heward during the past three days
two days tee late, he said remarked :
Well, there is one consolation; we all
knew that every man in this race has
made every feet he is credited with."
31 r. James Albert kept the second posi
tion gamely after Heward went te pieces.
He is a brave young fellow. When the
Xarragansctt was wrecked Albert, was en
his way te enter a walking match, lie is
a strong i swimmer. On that occasion he
saved the lives of several women. He has
since received a diamond ring from one of
the women and : medal from ethers. After
injming his leg in the wreck, en Saturday
he started in the 12 himr-n-day race, win
ning the first prize by traveling 412 miles
in 72 hours. He was born in liroeklyn,
twenty-six years age. lie never partici
pated in a full six (lavs' race before, and
his stamina and pluck at the wind-up were
wonderful. During the afternoon he
moved with case compared with Hughes,
but he did net pebscss the lcmtired strength
te keep up the speed.
Little Vint made a remarkable third
score in the race, his active slippers bear
ing him along ten miles in advance of the
tall Prussian, who marched with long, but
slew st lidos.
At :'. p. in. the scores of all the men re
maining in the race were : Hughes, mU
miles: Albert, oil ; Vint, "'.$ I : Krohne,
527 : Campana, 4!0.
At this time Hughes had retired for a
change of apparel and a bowl of beef tea.
Hisconsumplieii of this article of feed has
been enormous. On Thursday he swallow
ed forty pounds of beef reduced te tea.
His stomach anil body happened te be in
the right condition for this great, race. He
worked oil' his Miparllnens fat without
sapping his strength.
llfi reappeared at 'IS, attired in a neatly
embroidered blue undershirt, black trunks,
white tights and slippers. He moved very
awkwardly, and appeared terribly sere.
His arms moved up and down with spas
modic twitches, and his legs worked with
quick, upright jerk, as though he were
trcadiNg en het platen. This was in his
557th mile. On his next round he appear
ed with an American Hag. The stars were
tied around his next and the stripes hung
down his back. . Campana trotted behind
holding a broom eer Hughes's sheuldeis.
Hughes warmed up into a brisk trot again.
His eyes weie bright, and his cheek bones
were ceveied with a glax.cd cardinal red
lnuJJ
Half an hour later Daniel O'J.cary ap
peared in front, of the scorer's stand with
the new international belt. It is a gorgeous
affair. It rested in a large case limed with
purple satin. Just as Daniel was about a
place it en the stand. Campana came by
at a brisk trot. He snatched the belt, from
the case and ran like a deer. O'Lcary
gave chase, while the crewtr yelled with
apparent delight. Daniel ran two laps be
fore he recovered the belt.
Hughes started en his 5GGth mile at
5:-i:, en a lively trot. One lap beyond
thi3 mile would place him en the pinnacle
of pedestrian triumphs, several hundred
feet higher than Hewell's perch. Hughes
threw tins mile behind him in eleven
minutes. In less than two minutes mere
he had passed Hewell's great, score. This
occurred at. 5:50:20, nearly four minutes
inside of IDS hours. Hewell had used up
1 14 hours in reaching his score of 500 miles
0:J yards. Hughes wera a jockey cap of
red, white and blue silk while he was
passing eve: the last two laps. He ran
nimbly, the crowd cheering freely. When
he passed the scorers' stand, Mr. W. IJ.
Curtis shouted : "Ge it, Jehn ; you have
done it."
At 0 p. m., when Hughes retired for a
while, the blackboard showed 500 miles
for Hughes: Albert, 547; Vint, 5:39;
Krohne, 528 ; Heward, 515 ; Campana,
411).
Hetwccn G and S the rink filled up. At
the later hour there must have been near
ly 5,000 persons watching for the reappear
ance of the sturdy walker who had beaten
the best record by 0 o'clock, and who was
new in his cabin. He was net thieateucd
and there was no leal necessity for his com
ing out again. But of course it would net
de for him te skulk after his triumph from
the thousands who had coine te leek at
and applaud him. Us came Hashing by
the scorer's dials at 20 minutes before 8.
lie were a blue jumper and trunks in one.
He was tightly girded, and his whole ap
parel was fresh and spotless. A jockey
cap, with red, white and blue quarteiings,
rested upon his head and lent humor te
his serious Hibernian countenance. The
walker himself was as fresh as his attire.
His springing step had bermc him a quar
ter way around the track before the ap
plause get under way. Then the rink
echoed "with cries and rattled with hand
clapping. The baud struck up a lively
air, and the Lcpper broke into a nimble
run. He ran a mile, making his score 5G7
anu i Jap, and again retired.
Krohne, the Prussian, was also oft". He
had been pnmpingaleng while the succcss-
lul Hughes was slumbering. He were the
delicate and pretty shirt which he had in
troduced en the preceding evening, and it
was hard te say whether his energetic stride
or his ungainliness was the mere striking.
Vint walked with Albert, and conversed
with him in a friendly spirit. His head
reached a little above the belt or the sec
ond man in the race, who was eight miles
in the lead of Vint, who in turn led Krohne
by liltccu miles.
Campana was breugBt out by the ap
plause which greeted Hughes. He were a
disreputable felt hat and seemed as happy
as though the race had been laid en the
plan of a donkey race, in which the Iiiml Iiiml
erinest beast wins. He extravagantly pos
tured and ambled, provoking symmthcthtc
smiles. At one time lie repeated a per
formance that had provoked merriment in
the alternoen. O'Leary was walking in
the track with the prize belt, when Cam
pana, passing, seized it and ran. O'Lcary
pmxued the hindcrmest pedestrian and
quickly rcceveied the shining trophy.
Krohne did net reappear. At 8:2!). wrap
ped in an ulster, he made his way through
the crowd, and walked home.
Albert, Vint and Campana were the only
walkers left te entertain the people. The
immense crowd, that had been steadily
swelling, amused themselves listlessly with
listening te the band and watching Cam
pana and the striking machine.
At 9 o'clock-Hughes eaniu out again. He
was dressed in the same costume. He
walked somewhat stillly, was unmoved by
the applause which greeted him, and look
ed serious enough te have lest a six-day
match instead of wen one. He walked a
mile, and as the figures 508 went up te his
credit he passed the dials wrapped in an
American dag. This made the
Leppcr
leek mere lugubriously unnatural than
ever, aud the climax was reached when
six small boys dressed like policemen en
tered upon the track, marched in front of
hint and his two trainers, and burdened
with floral harps and horseshoes, took the
Leppcr by his either elbow, and began te
walk with him te a mcasmed triumphal
step. Hughes didn't like it, and held
back, and a moment later he was seen
ahead of the small boys, and shaking his
head at them like an urchin refusing te
play soldiers any longer.
His cxibiters forcbere, and he was given
the champion bell, without mere ado. He
walked right eif te his cabin with it.
It was nearly 93 o'clock when I luges quit.
A minute later Vint completed his 530th
mile, and left the track. Albert followed
suir. Vint made the largest score for the
last day of the walk, 77 miles, ami wen an
arm chair as a special prize.
The following show.-; the number of
miles made each day bv the seveial walk

The successful men are te be rewarded
by (i0 per cent, of the gate money. Of this
the winner gets 40 per cent., the second
man e0 per cent., the third man 15 per
cent., the forth man 10 percent., and the
lil'th man 5 per cent. A near estimate of
the gross receipts at the gate makes them
$14,000. Of this sum $8,400 gees te the
walkers, saving $500 which gees te Jehn
Ennis and Barney Weed, who watched, in
the interest of the pedestrians, in the box
eiliee. Tu round numbers, then, Hughe.;

Hughes also gets a special prb:e of $1,000,
which was eU'cred by O'Lcary te the win
ner in the event of his beating the record.
Checks for the money they have wen
will be given tuthe walkers at th Ct'piwr

The belt taken by Hughes is called the
"International O'Lcary Championship
licit of the World." Considering that the
belt given by Sir Jehn Ast.Icy. which How Hew
ell heMs, is also a world championship
belt, liii'ie isa possibility of mixing things
here. lhcU Leary belt has ter a contra!
piece an oval shield of geld surmounted
by branches of oak and laurel, and letter
ed in raised enamelled characters. En
amelled English, Irish and German (lags

variously the
Greenhorn and the Leppcr, was born at
Hesgray, Tippcrary, Ireland, June 21,
1850. He is 5 feet 7 inches in height, aud
weighs J 50 pounds. His best record pre
vious te this match was 521 miles in 141
hours. At one time he worked en the big
pipes.
The folie.viug concerning Hughes':; past
was obtained from Murphy, his old
trrincr :
Ilugcs laid the foundation of his powers
of endurance by following the hounds en
feet, in Ireland. He lived in Tippcrary
until he came te America, in 1808. His
father was a fleet-footed man, and is said
te have run, at the age of 00 years, ten
niles in 01 minutes and 40 seconds. In
1870 the Lcpper began Ids career of walk
ing and running in this country. He un
dertook te run from 125th street te Mc
Comb's dam aud return in twenty minutes.
lie made the three miles in seventeen
minutes. After this performance he made
the acquaintance of Dennis Mur
ray of Newark who backed him
in several matches. The first was a run
ever the same course against Jim Smith,
Hughes wen easily. Next, Murray and a
Harlem alderman backed the Lcpper
against "Patrick Fitzgerald. The race
came off en the same three-mile course.
ITughcs led en the homestretch, when a
policeman arrested him because he was
bare te the waist, and Fitzgerald crossed
the winning line. It is said by Murray's
friends that Jee Celmra, who backed Fitz
gerald, seeing that Hughes weald win,
persuaded the policeman te make the ar
rjst. rfoen after this race Hughes was chal
lenged te a ten-mile running race by
James Martin of New Orleans for $100
aside. The match came olfen the Fash
ion trr.tting course, and Hughes wen in
GH minutes. Haiti fell during the race
and Martin, as a result of the exposure,
died within three days thereafter. Hughes
took part in ether races, and in 1877 was
taken up by Harry Hill, under whose di
rection he attempted te beat O'Lcary's
walk of 520 miles in six days. The effort
was made in Central Park .Garden and was
a failure, Hughes covering only 41 1 miles.
Soen after this he walked 127 miles in
twenty-four hours. 3Ir. Murray then
went te Londen and arranged a six-day'
wain between Hughes and O'Leary. By
way of training for this match, Hughes
undertook a six-day walk iu Newark and
covered, according te the scorers, 500
miles. It is said, however, that the track
was short, lhcn came his well remem
bered walk with O'Leary in Gilmere's
Garden.

Ceukllng aud Blaine.
Why They Never Speak. The Unpleasant
ness of April, 18C6.
The time of Cenkliug's parliamentary
tilt with Blaine was April 30, 18CG. The
subject under discussion was the investi
gation of Provest Marshal General Fry for
frauds charged by Cenkliug in the provost
marshal's department of .the Western Di
vision of 2s ew Yerk. Blaine had criticised
Ceukling's volubility of speech and
charged that Cenkliug was prosecutor in
the case, and produced a letter
from Assistant Secretary or War Dana te
Conkling, and read the law against the
latter acting in any such capacity. This
Cenkliug denied, and Blaine, wishing te
interject a remark, Cenkliug said : I de
net wish te have anything te de with the
member from Maine net even se much as
te yield te him the fleer. If the member
from Maine had the least idea hew pro
foundly indilfercut I am te his opinion en
this or any ether subject, personal te me,
I think he would' hardly take the
trouble te rise here and express his
opinion." Aud, iu apologizing te the
Heuse for delaying the proceedings, he
cuaracicrizcti iiaiuc s interruption as
"ungentlemanly and impertinent." "Blaine
awaiting his opportunity, took the fleer
and said: " As te the gentleman's cruel
sarcasm, I hope he will net be tee severe.
The contempt of that large - minded
gentlemen is se wilting, his haughty dis
dain, his grandiloquent swell, his "majestic,
super-eminent, overpowering, turkey gob geb
ler's strut has been se crushing te myself
and all the members of this Heuse that I
knew it was an act of great temerity for
me te enter upon a contrevcry with him. I
Knew tnac within tne last hve weeks, as
members of this Heuse will recollect, an
extra strut has characterized the gcutle
'man's bearing. It is net his fault ; it is
the fault "of another. That gifted
and satrieal writer, Theodere Tilton
of the New Yerk Independent, spent
some weeks in this city. His letters, pub
lished in that paper, embraced with many
serious statements, a little joceso satire, a
part of which- was the statement that the
mantle of the late Winter Davis had fallen
upon the member from New Yerk. The
gentleman took it seriously, and it lias
given his strut additional pomposity. The
resemblance is great. Hyperion te a Satyr;
Thersites te Hercules ; mud te marble;
dunghill te diamond ; a singed cat te a
Bengal tiger ; a whining puppy te a roar rear
ing lien. Shades of the mighty Davis, for
give the almost profanity of that jocose
satire." The member from New Yerk kept
his scat, in silence. Since that day te this
no word of a personal nature has been ex
changed between these gentlemen. In de
bate, at a public meeting, at an evening
entertainment, or at a dinner party, they
meet but never speak. Their conduct,
however, tempered by the proprieties of
geed society, has been se directed that
their personal hostility would net be rec
ognized by persons net cognizant of
their relations.
