.THE TENWILL STAY.
Only One Schedule Being
Made for the league.
MB. MICE'S STATEMENT.
Buck Ewing Eefuses a Bisj Offer From
President Day.
TBE SPORTING NEWS OP TBE DAT
President Nimick, a member of the Na
tional Leacue Schedule Committee, states
that only one Schedule is being made up
for the League and it is tor 10 clubs. Back
Ewine refuses a big offer lrom President
Day to desert the Brotherhood. Manager
Hanlon receives an interesting letter from
Pitcher Harry Staley.
President Nirnick seemed to set at rest
Yesterday all conjectures regarding whether
or not the National League will have ten or
eight clubs next season. Mr. Kiinick is a
member of the League Schedule Committee
and is, therefore, in a position to talk very
definitely about tbe matter. Yesterday the
writer questioned Mr. Nimick very pointeflly
on the question by asking-
"Are you making out an eight or a ten-club
schedule, Mr. Nimickf"
"Now, that Is from the shoulder, sure
enouen. However, I don't hesitate to say that
we are only making up a ten-club schedule.
Mr. Soden,of Boston; Mr. Spalding, of Chicago,
and myself are tbe committee and we have
nerer eTen talked about an eight-club sched
ule. HE OUGHT TO KNOTT.
"I think I would know it such a thing bad been
intended, and I assure Ton nerer a word has
been said to me other than we are expected to
make up a schedule to suit all tbe clubs now in
the National League, t am about three
fourths through with my scbednle, and we
will meet at Cleveland two or tbree days before
tbe full meeting and agree upon a ten-club
schedule to be submitted to tbe general meet
ing." "Then you think that there will be ten clubs
In tbe National League this year?"
"Most decidedly 1 do. Of course very strange
thingb happen nowadays, but it is sare to wager
that we will bare ten rlubs in our organization
this year at least. We can get a scbednle
framed all right, and a good one. I see no
reason fur dropping any from the list. At any
rate we are only making tbe one schedule, and
that would mean that tbe general intention is
to keep all the clubs.
"WANTS TO KEEP SECRETS.
"I did not want to talk about tbe matter, but
I am also desirous of answering plainly any
public question put to me. I am really not at
liberty to talk about any features of tbe sched
ule other than saying that the opening will be
West versus West and East versus East. I am
even not at liberty to say when I think the
opening day will be, but yon newspaper people
doubtless can guess it. Regarding the publish
ing of our schedule I may say that we may de
cide not to make It public until long alter it
has been adopted. We have many important
things to drcuss at onr Cleveland meeting, and
we may surprise lots of people."
President Nimick was evidently talking in
good faith, and it, therefore, may be taken for
granted that after all the talk there wil be ten
clubs in the National League. Ot course Pres
ident Young said the other day that there
might be an eight-club schedule made up in
case of an emergency, but Mr. Nimick knocked
that conj cture entirely to one side. Accord
ing to Mr. Nimick's statement the old League
schedule will be looked for with an unusual
amount of curiosity, because of the ten clnb ar
rangement. Many very old and experienced
baseball authorities think that a good schedule
for ten clubs cannot be made up.
STALEr HEARD FEOJL
The Popular Pitcher Prompts Some Good
Talk From Mnnniter Hanlon.
Manager Hanlon, of the new local clnb, re
ceived a very encouraging letter from Harry
Staley yesterdav. Harry is a good, honest fel
low and an excellent player, and any nens from
him Is always of interest to local baseball ad
mirers. His letter states that he and Billy
Robinson are at Hot Springs and are working
hard. Staley says there are nnmerons bait
players there from all parts of the country.
Everyone is trying to get into tbe best possible
condition, believing that a tremendous fight is
to come. Referring to the letter. Manager
Hanlon said:
"I have told Staley to practice a quick deliv
ery and a slow balk These are the only two
points he needs to improve on, and he is young
enough to get them do n line before tbe season
opens. Robinson will be a valuable coach to
him, and I feel snre that Staley will do himself
good. If he learns to get a quicker delivery he
will be a great pitcher, and I have much faith
in him."
Manager Hanlon went on to say that verv
great care will be exercised in seenrmgany
more new men. He said: "I believe in a clnb
string along with as few pitchers as possible.
f we look back for a few years we'll find
that almost every club tbat has
won tbe pennant has done so with about two
pitchers. Take New York with Keefe and
Welch: Chicago with Clarkson and McCormick:
St. Louis with Carnthers and Foutz and King
and Chamberlain. And take Bostons great
achievement with Clarkson and Radbourne.
Clarkson told me tbat be could always do bet
ter Ifi he was pitching regularly, and good
pitchers can keep going These facts convince
me that all a clnb needs is at most about three
really good pitchers. It is better for tbe
pitchers and better for tbe club. Besides, this
will not be a year to carry good men about and
keep them on the benches."
BDCK WQULDVT HELD.
Evrlnff Refuses a Bis Offer From President
J. B. Day.
nU-ECIAI. TZIECBAM TO THE DISH.TCH.1
Chjctknati, February 17. Captain Ewing.
Has turned aside irom a generous oner to re
join his old club. It was an offer better than
the Brotherhood has made, bnt as missionaries.
President John B. Bay and Joseph Gordon will
have to rank their Cincinnati trip as a fruitless
one. Tbey came, saw, but failed to conquer.
The New Yorkers arrived last evening and a
trusty "cabby" was given the mission to seek
and find Captain Ewing, bnt it was not until
this afternoon tbat the coveted player called
at tbe Grand Hotel in response to their request.
Mr. Day kept very quiet and refused to see
callers. Later in tbe afternoon Captain Ewing
was more communicative. To th'qnery, "Well,
old man. where are you?" he replied:
"With the Brotherhood. I will stick until all
the rest come tramping back before I yield.
Danny Richardson and Roier Connor have
Sromised to come back Ify show them tbe way,
ut I can't do it I bate to see John B. Day out.
He ought to be with us. It's tbis way he wants
me, and I'd like to see him in the Players'
League. We mav not succeed, but Pre got a
five years' contract and that satisfies me. I've
got enonch money to live on for a few years."
Zlmmer Declares Himself.

was elected resident; Dr. W. H. Emory, of
Massachusetts, First Vice President; Oeorge
R. Bidwell. of Mew York, Second Vice Presi
dent; W. W. Brewster, of Missouri, Treasurer.
The action of tbe retiring President, Charles

lation without consulting the State bodies, were
not approved of.
It was decided to withdraw the support ot the
organization from the Depeyster bill and give
it to the Coggesball measure. The annual
tournament will be held at Niagara on August

.'PrECIAL TZXEOKAX TO THX DI8FATCH.3
New Yoke. February 17. For nearly
three hours this afternoon there were all
sorts of speeches, and motions, and protests,
and indignant denials, and loud state
ments made in the Mayor's office by
persons interested in the building of
subways. The corporation counsel
has decided that the Board of Electrical
Control had to contract with the Standard
Electrical Subway Company. Elihu
Itoot, for the .Manhattan Com
pany, also thought that the Standard
Subway Company vtas in a fair way of be
coming a dangerous monopoly. "The
Standard Electrical Subway Company, 'I
am advised," said Mr. Boot, "is onlv an
other name for tbe most power "ul of all the
firms interested in the electric lighting
business."
Mr. Boot explained that the Standard
Company is a Westinghouse institution and
a part of the United Electric Xight and
Power Companies, which controls both
the rights of the Westinghouse, the
United States and the Brush Com
panies. Mr. Hoot went on to say that the
boaru might as well make a contract with
the Westinghouse Company as with the
Standard Comuany.
The bolrd finally resolved to contract with
the Sunciard lor light and power subways,
the terms of the contract to be set
tled at a meeting of the board
to-morrow and each electric light
and power company to submit in the mean
time its proposed amendments to the form
of the existing contract.

KILRAIN DONE FOE.
He is Badly Punished by CorbBtt,
the California Wonder.
THE EX-CHAMPION ASTONISHED
At the Cleverness Displayed by His Almost
Unknown Antagonist.
J. J. CORBETT THE LION OF TEE HOUR
He E:tires a Victor Amid the Plaudits of His
Admirers.
Kilrain met a Waterloo last evening in
New Orleans. The California wonder, al
most wholly unknown, meets him in the
fistic arena and shows him a trick or two
about fighting. The young boxer is greeted
with round after round of cheers, and is now
the lion of the hour.
New Obleans, February 17. There
was a large crowd of spectators present at
the Southern Athletic Club rooms to-night
to witness the glove contests.
Kilrain stated his weight variously be
tween 201 and 205 pounds. He did nothave
a very lively air as he came out attired in
white tights and black socks and looked
stiil less the fighter on account of the heavy
mustache which he retained for luck. But
the ex-champion looked massive and strong,
although he complained before hand of hav
ing contracted la grippe at Houston.
Corbett came out all smiles, and made a
strange contrast to Kilrain. Although
Corbett is 6 feet 1 inches tall, lie looked a
mere boy alongside of his adversary. He
only weighs 183 pounds, and looks even
less. He has a fine neck and shonlders, but
his chest is not overdeep, his waist small
and his underpinnings rather slender. He
was so confident before the fight that the
club cheered him with the impression that
he was only a good-natured mark lor the
formidable Kilrain.
Kilrain had Muldoon and Cleary behind
him, while Corbett was seconded by Tommy
Danforth, who will fight Paddy McBride in
a few days, andUike, Smith, while George
Scott, well-known here some years ago as
one of the cleverest of lightweights, was
bottle holder. Muldoon introduced the
men and annonnced that Kilrain weighed
201 pounds. Corbett looked over at his
burly rival and said incredulously. "Then
you can put me down for 170."
Mr. F. B. Violett, the well-known cotton
man, and au enthusiastic amatenr sparrer,
was selected by the club as referee, and A.
M. Hill and B. A. Fox timers. He an
nounced that he proposed to make the con
test on its merits. If a foul occurred he
would warn the man, and if it was repeated
he would call the, fight off.
TOEING THE MASK.
Then time was called withoat any more pre
liminaries and both men sprang lightly forward
to tbe scratch. Corbett smiling as if eager for
tbe fray. Both men sparred for an opening,
watching each other's styles, for it was the
first time they bad met. Corbett carried his
left loosely while his right held guard. He
feinted with his left but Kilrain jumped away.
Then Kilrain shoved his left at Corbett's face,
and as Corbett got away Kilrain caught him in
tbe back with his right.
Tbat gave Corbett a point, and when Kilrain
rushed him strain he smashed his left into Kil
rain's face. Kilrain clinched, but Corbett held
bim and prevented Kilraln's usual half arm
blows. Corbett folloned this up with a
smashing left hander in the stcmach
with the- arm down at nearly full
length. Tbis was followed by another
clinch and Kilrain's right arm failed to find
Corbel's neck before tbe clinch was broken.
Kilrain tried leading with his left, but fell
short twice, Corbett getting out of reach like a
flash. When be came back to the center be
feinted with his left aud before Kilrain knew
it Corbett's right caught him a clip in the side
and the Calirofman was away.
Kilrain was a little bothered, and was more
so when he got ont bis left in a hurry and
landed lightly on Corbett's side, the latter Ret
ting almost out of reach before the blow landed.
Anyhow, Kilrain found one way to get in. and
so he led twice with bis left on Corbett's side
and clinched and hugged Corbett's neck so
nam that tlie crowu expressed its aispleasure.
Kilrain kept oh. however, and the next left
banded lead and clinch he had his right arm
free and did a little of
BIS DAMAGING PUNISHING
With his right on Corbett's neck. The latter
took it good naturedly, however, and took care
to do the leading the next time. He feinted
with his left again and smashed his right into
Kilrain's face and got away neatly amidst the
cheers of the crowd.
The next time Kilrain led again with his left
on Corbett's side, but Corbett was ready and
countered lustily with his left on Kilrain's
face. Kilrain looked astonished, but when
Corbett led again he warily kept ont of reach.
Corbett ducked to avoid a return, and Kil
rain' seized and held him in a vicious hug. The
referee warned him this time, but Corbett onlv
smiled. Time was called as the men stood off
at arm's length, and Corbett went to bis seat
like a victor amid the cheers of the crowd
and the plaudits of his surprised and delighted
seconds. Kilrain looked considerably surprised
and a Utile disheartened.
Corbett stepped up lively for the second
round and opened up with a rattling left
bander in Kilrain's face, which made tbe
champion state In amazement. Kilrain rallied
and planted a hard right-hander on Corbett's
neck and clinched, but Corbett was like a
youug lion and never phased. He showed his
unconcern by dasblng his left into Kilrain's
face and jumping away as soon as
tbey came to tbe center again. Kilrain had
not yet lost confidence, and, feinting with his
left, be swung his right bard on Corbett's neck,
but while he was doing tbat Corbett's left shot
out and ought Kilrain a stunning blow over
the left eye, making an ugly cut and drawing
blood.
THE CBOWD GOES WILD.
The crowd went wild and Kilrain evidently
lost heart. It was the turning point of the
fight and Kilrain stuck to the corners surlily
most of the time after that. Kilrain tried his
clinching act as the best plan, but Corbett held
his adversary tight and prevented ln-flpht-lng.
After they parted Kilrain led, but
fell abort. Corbett did better, Kilrain sparred
again and made two points by light- left hand
ers on the side, but Corbett stopped the lead
ing bv a heavy left-hander counter on tbe face
and Kilrain got out of reach. Corbett followed
and planted his left on Kilrain's nose and Kil
rain clinched.
Parted again Kilrain feinted with his left,
but as be swung his right Corbett got under it,
and Kilrain sought safety in a hug. Kilrain
took up tbe fighting, and landed with both
hands on the ribs In snecession and clinched.
Corbett came back with a left-bander on tbe
face. Kilrain conutered with bis left on the
face, and then Corbett swung hit right around
in a hurry and struck Kilrain In tbe nose.
Time was called and Corbett got tbe cheers.
Kilrain claimed that his eye was cut br Cor
bett's elbow, although he did not think it mas
done intentionally.
KILBAIN STILL DETERMINED.
Kilrain came up slow and determined for the
tbird round and showed some'of his old skill,
and planted bis left on Corbett's stomach and
got away. Corbett, nothing daunted, dupli
cated the blow and escaped. Kilrain repeated
tbe performance again, and then both
men defiantly coaxed each otber
on, but both were wary. Corbett
feinted with his left during tbe coming act,aud
hrnnp-ht hlsritrht around Quick on Kilrain's
ribs. Corbett came up with a left-bander on
Kilrain's lace. Tbe blow was too short, but
wben he returned he got in a hurry. Kilrain
took up tbe leading and, after falling short
with bis left.be stepped in and swung the same
nana arouna, tanuuig an nay. i
Tbe champion was encouraged and made a)
good rush, landing one hand after another on)
the chest and breast. Kilrain came back wltn
a left-hander in tbe face, but received A
counter. Corbett made alively rush, but Kill
Tain met htm square and landed both hands lnt
succession on the cbdst of bis advancing foe, and
got in another left bander in the face at part-1
fng. Corbett replied in kind by a left hander
on tbe ribs and sent the same hand back
prettily, catching iuirain on the nose before
the latter knewwhat happened. Corbett then
sailed In merrily, fell short with his
left, but swung tbe right in on tbe chest and
. anmv. TTUr&fn tried tn Rtnn th Mttv tiw .
fef i-hander in tbe face, bur got a return of tbe i
same kind, ano men uornett supped nls lace
twice with his rigbt as time was called.
Corbett pranced forward like a young colt for
the fourth round and danced away as Kilrain
led. Kilrain folloned and reached Corbett's
neck br swineinc bis riebt. Kilrain then
reached the ribs with his left and V
clinched, but as he began in-fighting tbe crowd
crleo foul and tbe, referee ordered a break.
Corbett led and fell short, but avoided leaving
an opening. He came up and led for Kilrain's
face with bis loft, and landed and got away.
As be came back Kilrain stopped his progress
with a rigbt hander on tbe ribs. Corbett's
lead fell short, and Kilrain came with rush,
landing bis right on Corbett's long but sturdy
neck. Then the champion reached Corbetf s
corner, following up with a good one on the
ribs. Corbett avoided the next rush by slipping
from under Kilrain's fond embrace. Kilrain
finally succeeded in clinching Corbett with his
left and using his right at short range, and Cor
bett tried upper cutting with bis right, reaching
Kilrain's face.
CAUGHT KILBAIN'S LEFT EYE.
One of these swings caught Kilrain's left eye
with the wrist and raised a lump under it.
After they broke Kilrain got in a clean Tight
bander on the side. Corbett's left iand
lead was short, but be smashed Kilrain on the
neck as the latter closed and broke away from
the bng. Kilrain again landed his left on the
ribs, but Corbett retaliated with interest. Cor
bett's left caught (Kilrain on tbe arm. but
he sent in tn"e ' same hand witb light
ning-like speed , and iuirain received it
on the neck. Corbett awung his left around
like a man, and twice in succession he accom
plished his feat of landing on tbe side and face
with the same hand and getting away. Kilrain
countered lightly with his left as time was
called. Kilrain was somewhat winded, but
looked aliitlemore pleased, as it was his best
round; ,
Kilrain came up more confident in the fifth.
He settled down to business at once, swinging,
bis left on Corbett's neck and clinching. . The
next time he rushed Corbett got away. Kilrain
led at close quarters, but Corbett slipped under
graceful.
CAUGHT KILKAIN ON THE STOMACH.
A third time they clinched, and again Kilrain
was maddened by the cries. He landed on Cor
bett's neck. Tbey came together again at .close
quarters, and Corbett's lightning leftcangbt
Kilrain on the stomach and stopped, a
clinrb. Kilrain came in and clinched, but
Corbett broke away and sent his right on Kil
rain, succeeding In getting away. Kilrain then
pushed Corbett away. Corbett wonld not be de
nied and reached Kilrain's neck with his left,
but Kilrain clinched and warmed Corbett's
head in close 'quarters.
Corbett patted Kilrain's face with his left,
but Kilrain closed and landed both hands on
Corbett's neck. Corbett kept on coming, led
with his left on Kilrain's chest and swune his
right in on the neck and got away.
Kilrain was In . a corner and
reached Corbett's chest with , his left.
Corbett continued to advance, but Kilrain
slipped out of reach of well-meant blows. But
Corbett got the champion at last and smashed
him rieht andjef t on the chest and face, land
ing four rattling blows before Kilrain clinched
for self-protectiou.
After breaking Kilrain shot out his left and
canght Corbett's ceck twice in succession and
clinched, npper cutting on Corbett's neck as he
held him. Corbett asked If that was fair.
When tbey came together again Kilrain
quickly swung his right ow Corbett's stomacb,
but as he ducked away Corbett delivered an
npnercut on his swollen face. Kilrain led
with his left on' Corbett's face, and received a
like return as tune was called.
THE SIXTH BOUND.
Corbett was .cheered as he came up In fine
condition for the sixth round, while Kilrain
came forward sullenly. Both men sparred for
an opening. .Corbett was willing to let well
enough alone, and Kilrain did not want to
afford his young opponent any more good
chances to distinguish himself. Corbett led
first, bnt fell short, and wben be brought
his right around looking for Kilrain's neck, the
latter was again out of reach. Kilrain
stepped in then with a left-bander on the chest,
but Corbett countered on tbe stomach. Kil
rain played for Corbett's stomach with his left,
but he was a little low, and
Corbett's left went out hard and straight
and caught Kilrain on tbe nose. It was a bard
rap, and made the champion wince. Kilrain
hurried matters a little, however, and led on
Corbett's face with his left twice in succes
sion, following tbe second lead with a rigbt
hander on the neck and a clinch. Corbett kept
away from tbe next rnsb. Then Corbett' led
lightly on the face, but Kilrain clinched and
punched Corbett's bead a little with his
right until warned away. He stood off
then and landed a left-handed lead in the face.
but was met with a bard left hand counter un
der the eye. Corbett stepped in lively, and
swung his left on Kilrain's stomach in his fa
vorite way and ducked away from returns.
Kilrain replied with a left hander on tbe chest)
at the same time cleverly catching tbe return
on bis right. Kilrain rushed again and landed
his left on the chest and his right on Corbett's
neck, clinching again as time was called.
COBBETT OWNS THE TOWN.
The fight was over and the crowd was all one
way. There were shouts of "Corbett," "Cor
bett," and Corbett was as happy as a school
boy In his corner. He had nerer
lost his smile or his confidence, did not bear a
mark from his encounter and felt he bad done
tbe best thing of his life.
Kilrain came forward and claimed that only
five rounds had been fought, but the tally
showed six, and Referee Violett an
nonnced that, as tbe fight was to be
decided on scientlfio points and not on strength
of blows, be awarded tbe victory to James J.
Corbett, of San Kran Cisco:
Corbett received an ovation, and was almost
carried to his dressing room by bis second aud
new-found admirers. "I am the biggest man in
the country now," he said, "and l expect to
make a good deal of money off my victory. I
will go back to California tn a few days, but
return here later."

A Steamboat Captain, Howeier, Girts a Different
. Version of the Story.
One hundred and sixty German emi
grants, part of a Brazilian colony, hare re
turned to New York. They claim that
handsome promises were made them but
were not kept. On the contrary, they had a
very hard time of it, and were glad to get
back after a very brief stay in the new Ee
public ISTSCIAL TXLEGBAM TO TOT! DISPATCH. I
New Tobk, February 17. The steamer
finance arrived from Bid de Janeiro to-day,
having on board, among other passengers,
36 Germans, who had formed part of a
colony of about 160 emigrants taken out
from this port last November on tbe Al
liance, of the same line, to settle on land
near Maranham. The colony was organized
by a man named D. Adler, who had been in
Brazil, and had selected land there, and ob
tained from the Government concessions
under which he was able to offer to pay the
expenses of emigrants to Brazil, to give
each one seven acres of cleared land, with a
frame house, farming utensilsand 30 milreis
in cash per month for eight months.
STOEIES OP "WOFUIi HAEDSHIPS.
The returning party told a woful tale of
their experiences in Brazil. She land npon
which they were put, they said, was utterly
unfit for habitation, let alone cultivation,
all sand and water. The houses were mere
shelters of thatched palms, letting the rain
through in streams during the almost con
tinued showers. They were shipped back
to tbe United States after being made to
sign a paper promising to-say nothing.about
their treatment.
. They admitted that tbe 30 reis per month
had been paid them regularly, and that that
was sufficient to keep them and their fami
lies irom starving. They also admitted that
tbey were told, when they expressed dissatis
faction with their land, that tbey would be
taken to Bio de Janeiro and allowed to try
their luck there if tbey chose. Some of the
colonists, they said, still remained, and pro
posed to stick it out.
THEY EXPECTED TOO MUCH.
. Captain F. C. Baker, of the Finance, dis
credited tne story told by tbe colonists. He
said that tbe trouble was that the men had
gone down there expecting to have ready
made farms given to them. Tbe men who
had come back were the drones of the col
ony, Captain Baker said, and as soon as it
became certain that' they wonld not work
they had been sent back.
The steamer Bessel, from Para, also ar
rived to-day. Captain Thompson said that
the people continued to be dissatisfied over
the long time to which tbe Government had
postponed the elections. Tbe Para papers
also refer to the decree of the Central Gov
ernment looking to the establishment of
tbree banks of issue, one in Bio de Janeiro,
one ill Bahia and one in Porto Alegre.

A Wire Beater Whipped Until Ho Became
Unconscious. '
Newtown, Conn., February 17. John
Campbell, of this nlace, was flayed last
night by four masked men, and is suffering
badly to-day. Campbell has been in the
habit of beating his wife. Neighbors say
they often heard Campbell beating his wife.
On Snnday afternoon he struck her on the
head witb a blunt instrument, making a
dangerous scalp wound. Mrs.lCampbell fled
to a neighbor's house.
Late last night four citizens, disguised
add masked, entered Campbell's house aud
dragged him to the street. Campbell's
night dress was torn off, and in a nude con
aition he was lashed to a telegraph pole.
The men then whipped him with rawhides
until be became unconscious. Tbe man's
back and limbs were covered with welts.
He was carried back to his house and placed
in bed. His cries aroused the neighbors
and brought a crowd to tbe scene, but wben
they found Campbell was being whipped no
resistance was offered. .

A HOT FIGHT AT HARRISBURG.
A Lively Contest for the Mayoralty, With

tSPKCIAI. TLIOUAM TO TUX DMPATCB.!
Habbisbubo, February 17. There is
unusual excitement in this city incident to
the election to-morrow, and the vote for
Mayor will probably be tbe largest ever
cast in Harrisbnrg. The re-election of
Mayor Fritchey, Democrat, was considered
certain until the last few days, during which
the Bepnblicans have greatly changed the
current, and to-night the prevailing im
pression is that the result is doubtful. The
natural Bepublican majority, is about 300,
but Fritchey was chosen tbree years ago by
about 450 majority.
The Bepublican candidate for Mayor is
W. Grant Wilson, who is making a vigor
ous canvass. A. T. Black, "Bepublican, will
likely be re-elected to, but he will be badly
cut by his party. William K. Verbeke.
Democrat, will be re-elected Controller, but
his majority of over 900, received three
years ago, will be materially reduced.

A LIBERAL SYNDICATE.
Capitalists Supposed to Represent Tam
many Hnll Ofltr More Than Its Worth
for Ferry Stock Some Mystery
v Behind the Scheme.
ISrECMX. TELXQBJJt TO TSX DISPATCH. 1
New'Yobk, February 17. When the
Board of Directors of the Union Ferry
Company met this morning there was pre
sent a representative of the law firm of
Piatt & Bowers. He had come to lay be
fore the boanLa proposition looking toward
the purchase of the company's property and
franchises by a syndicate. There was
something mysterious about this and
the majority of the directors were at
a loss to understand his offer to bay all the
stock he conld get at $200 net a share. The
Union Ferry Company has been in exist
ence 40 years. It runs the Fulton, Wall,
Catherine, South and Hamilton ferries. Its
capital is $1,000,000 in 10,000 shares. The
stock has been held at 165, and lately at 167.
The inventory of tbe property would make it
worth just about 165. It wonld not, how
ever, be worth any more than that, and the
price offered by 'Mr. Piatt set the directors
to thinking.
Cornelius Zabriski has been the largest
holder of stock, which has been very largely
scattered. He held until to-day 455 shares.
The Kings County Fire Insurance Com
pany, ot Williamsburg, is another of the
large holders. Whatthe directors wanted
to know and could not learn definitely was
the composition of the syndicate and its
purpose. After their meeting they plied
Mr. Piatt with questions, but he smiled
suavely and said practically nothing.
"I have been told," said Director De
Granw, "that this syndicate is composed of
persons pretty near to the Sinking Fnnd
Commission. I understand that the parties
holding tbe largest in the syndicate are yery
close nnto Tammany Hall. The scheme, as
I understand it, is to remove the present
tax, which is about $125,000 yearly, decrease
the expenses, and in that way make the
thing pay."
"No; tbat is not true," said Mr. Piatt
"We think there is money in tbe ferries as
they are at present. We don't think that
you people have been running them prop
erly. It is our opinion that you have been
running them in tbe interest of tbe city of
Brooklyn altogether, and without auy re
gard to the stockholders. We think we can
make the ferries pay by running them to
make money."
A ROW IN THE CUSTOM HOUSE.
A IiUTrrer and a Broker Engage In a Very
Lively Flit Fight.
rsrXCIAL TEUCOBAK TO TUX DISPATCH.1
New Yobk, February 17. The marble
pavement in the rotdnda of the Custom
House just -in front of Deputy Collector
Stanwood's desk had crimson spots on it at
5 .o'clock this afternoon. John Began,
lormerly a porter, and a lawyer named
Bedell, had appeared before the Deputy
Collector and requested to see certain papers.
Mr. Stanwood declined to show the papers
except to the principal himself, and the dis
cussion became pretty loud. At-its height
Broker Irwin leaned against the railing in
front of Mr. Stanwood's desk and was
jostled by the lawyer. In an instant Irwin's
temper was up, and glaring at the lawyer
he said: "Don't you push me again," and
he followed this with another remark. The
brokers began to gather around tbe talkers
and Bedell deliberately pushed Irwin
again.
Quick as a flash Irwin struck him full in
the face, knocking off the lawyer's glasses
and raising a great racket. Big John Began
came to what he thought would be the
rescue. He weighs 230 pounds, and struck
Irwin full between the eyes. Irwin then
sailed into Began. The first blow cut a
great gjsh in Began's forehead and the sec
ond and third cut his lip and nose and felled
him to the pavement All tbis time the
brokers sent up sreat shouts of aoDroval.
and every other man shonted "Hit him
again." Irwin was the conqueror of the
field, the lawyer had fled and the big porter
was knocked out The trouble grew out of
a dispute regarding the, payment of a draft.

rSFCCIil. TELBQKJLM TO THX DISPATCH.1
NEW Yobk, February 17. The grand
jury of this county started off to-day on the
trail ot the would-be wreckers of the Sixth
National, Equitable andLenox Hill Banks,
and dire results in the way of 'indictments
ate likely to result. Thi testimony of Sieg
mund T. Meyer, at to-day's hearing in the
Claassen examination before Commissioner
Shields, hinted strongly tbat the people who
were scheming to grab tbree banks did not
stop at mere check-kiting in their efforts to
accomplish their purpose.
Mr. Meyer examined several of the large
checks involved, and declared tbat he had
not seen them before, and that they, or the
transactions which they represented, were
not entered upon tbe books of bis bnsiness
house, and had not come into tbe business
in any way. In the case of one check for
$20,000 Mr. Meyer testified positively that
neither be nor either of his sons could have
written the indorsement the firm which
appeared upon its back.

ISrKCIAL TILEQIULM TO TO1 CISrATCH.l
New York, February 17. Collector Er
hardt received this morning Secretary Win
dom's formal notification to the Commis
sioners of Emigration that on and after
April 18, Castle Garden will cease to be the
landing place of immigrants. Secretary Win
dom requested to have the letter personally
delivered to President Bidgeway, of tbe
Emigration Board. As announced in The
Dispatch last week, tbe Secretary of tbe
Treasury has practically decided to use
Bedloe's Island, N; J., as a lauding place
for immigrants.
The strong opposition of military men to
the use of Governor's Island is given as the
reason why, and federal patronage is useful
on New Jersey, too. The tone of the talk
or all the emigration Commissioners indi
cates that tbey are going to fight the Treas
ury Department to the last ditch before
they surrender.
