"Homcwood track is all right for next year, and will be, I hope, for many years to come," said an official ot the Driving Pari: Association last evening after the stockholders meeting. This will be very pleasing news, indeed, to those who patron ire horse racing and wlio desire the city to have a firt-class track. That efforts have been put iorth for some time past to have the park diverted from its present use is true, hut at the list moment the parties who desired to o dispone of the park did not ma terial.ze. simplj because they discovered that the charter of the Association was acainst such a proeeedins. "liven if the people vho want to Ecll the track. said the authority above quoted, "have a con trolling interest in the stock, there is a Uause in our charter nhicu provides that the park shall not be utilized for auj thing else than horse-racing and kindred SDorts, except by the unanimous consent of the stockholders. It is this clause that Mill keep the track, because there are quite a number of us who will never tell our stock." In accordance with the announcement pub-li-heil in this paper yesterday the stockholders hfld their meeting, liiev met at the office ol Captain T. It. Kerr. President of the associa tion. Thrro were JS stockholders represented, and the meeting w.is of the most harmonious Vind. The following board of directors was elected without opposition- T. It. Kerr, G. T. ILiilerty. J. IC Ltnahan, L. S. Cunningham, P. 11. Hacke, T. J. Armstrong, J. A. .McCracken. Cliarle- Donnellj, J. 15. Hyndman. It wjs further agreed at the meeting that a new entrance ga e be made at the side of the park neit the railroad. This will save a walk almost entirely round the park, as patrons of tie races can go in at the new entrance and walk straight across the park to the grand stand. A new judges stand and press box will al-o be erected. What is more important still, the track will be greatly improved, and im proved in a way ihat will make it one of the fastest circular tracks in America. Tne new Board of Directors will meet this week, probably to-morrow, and appoint the officers, that is, the president, secretary and tieaMirer. It is safe to i-ay that the old officials will be reappointed. The directors will also discuss the association's programme for next season, and all are unanimous in the desire to lure two or thiee tirst-class meetings. It is almost certain that a summer ana fall meeting will be decided on, and Some want to nold a spring meeting. As previously stated in this paper, the board will decide to arrange at least two stake races: one lortrotters and another for pacci s. Theo events ill be retained for the summer meeting. Altogether the future tf the association looks -.cry encouraging, and some grea' races may be expected here next 3 ear. HE WAS EASILY BEATEN. Details Showing that I-i Itlanche Had o Miou Againvt Ivessler. Fuller details regarding the ticht between La Blanche, "The -Manne," and George Kess ler show that the former had tho worst of the contest from the start. A lengthy account from llutte. Mont., says: ijeorge La Blanche, the self-nominated cham pion niidule-w eight of the world, was fairly whipoed bj George Kesslcr. a local pugilist, in a thirteen-rouud contest here. La Blanche went into the hgbt feeling confident that he could bet his mau in two rouuds, but when two of his finest rushes had been cleverly stop ped by Kessler he changed his mode of attack. From that time he used every artifice, throwing Kf&sler twice, and falling on him with all his icl.-ht, but it was no go. The plucky little Knglishman kept hammering away at his man, and alter the tenth round it na apparent that Kes-lcr had the hfcht, and the Marine recog nized it as soon as anone. lu the thirteenth ro'und, finding that he could btand no longer, he deliberately kicked Ke-sler in the jrrom while standing in the center of the ring. This ended 'he fight, the releree giving it to Kessler on a foul. La Blanche was fairly whipped if ever a man was. He had to be ear ned to his corner and then to his dressing room, while Kessler jumped the ropes and ran in as light as a boy. Fully 2,000 people witnessed the fight. After all the best of it in the Dreceding rounds Kessler knocked La Blanche all over the ring in tho eleventh round. To avoid pun ishment he clinched Kessler several times. Kessler had the best ot the twelfth round. In the thirteenth Kesslcr kocked his opponent across the ropes five different times. MAY DECIDE IT HERE. Possibility or Lehigh and U. of P. Playing 1 oothall iu Pittsburg. There is considerable local interest centered In the football came which takes place between the Lehigh and University of Pennsylvania teams at Bethlehem on faaturilay. If the Le liighs win, each team will have won a game,and will, therefore, be tied for the State champion ship. In that event a third game will be placed, and the mauacer of the Lebighs wants the deciding game plajed iu this cityorls'ew York. A Lehigh craduate said jesterday afternoon, when speaking on the matter: "I think Lehigh will win on Saturday, aud the manager of that zeatu luioruicu me mat n &i.nicient induce ments were held out in this city he would be willing to plav the deciding game here. If a leciding or third game is necessary, the U. of P. will not piay at Bethlehem and the Lehighs will not play at Philadelphia, so that neutral ground will have to be secured. The contest, if it were tn take place, would be much better patronized in Pittsburg than in New York, be cause here it would be more ot a local contest than in New Vork. BIG MATCHES FOB PBIDDY. A Local Authority hay Two Eastern Men "Will Jtun the PitUburger. .Sneaking ot Peter Friday's chances for another foot race jesterday, John Quinn, a local sporting authority, said: "I think that Puddy can get two races, both of which he can win. borne time ago I was talking with Lon Meyers, the famous pedes trian, and he told me that he would match Freui-ncks to run Peter Pnduy a mile for $2,000 aside. 1 think Pnddy can beat Fredericks. .Meyeis also said that if Pridd defeated Fred ericks he, Meer-, would run Priddv a mile for 12,000 more. It Puddy keeps himself in uood condition I'm certain that he can secure a good natch or tw o. because he need not be afraid of anybody in the Exit." It is likely that Pnddy's backers will sooner or later try to secure a match for him for a big stake. McUlclland's backers, too, are not at ail discouraged about the defeat of their cham pion, and they think be can uefc it an; body in the country except Priddy, and the general opinion is that they are right in their judg ment. The Association Meeting. Louisville, November 18. The meeting of the American Association to be held to-day a week will be an important one, as the circuit for next season will be decided. It is about definitely settled that Syracuse and Rochester will be dropped. Washington, Indianapolis and Milwaukee have applied for franchises, but it is not at all probable that either will be admitted. The Atbletic's lrauchis6 is now ow ned by the Associa ion. as the owners of that club failed to make good their guarantee, ana they are still deeply indebted to the Associa tion. All club members of the Association for "91 will be compelled to deposit a cash guaran tee of J2.50J by January L to play the season througu. It was ascertained to-day from a re liable source that a club wonld probably be placed in Cincinnati. The Association still owns a franchise there, and several men have wnttrn to tho Association office here saying that they can secure backing for a club there. Jlanager Chapman will take the Lonlsville club !-outh on Match 1. Grounds for week-day gamc will be secured in the center of the city. Clote Fights Legal in California. San FitAXClsco. November 18 The jury in the case of Sidney Huntinjfton, oue of the principals arrested during a glove fight at the Calilorma Club, last September, returned a verdict of not guilty this afternoon.

President Prince Threatens Injunctions Against New York, Chicago and Pitts burg Clubs. .'FrrCIAL TKLZOKAM TO TUB DISPATCH. 1 Boston, Mass., November 18. President Prince, the newly-elected bead of the Players' League, is put with a tremendous "bluff." In an interview to-day he stated that injunctions will be applied for against the New York, Chi cago and Pittsburg P. L, clubs for deserting the Players' League. " Mr. Prince says he has 540,000 to spend over the matter. The threat, for such it merely is. is looked upon as ridicu lous becauseJudge Baron, theP. Lsownlaw 3 er. and all other prominent attorneys, declare that there is no law for any such Injunctions. Besides, Mr. Prince has been trying his best to make terms with the N. L. at his price. What is considered berejmore ridiculous still. President Prince has been trying to persuade people that the Players' League will go on next season. This statement causes everybody to almost ignore anything he says, because the best trieuds of the P. L. are satisfied that it is done for. WHAT SL0SS0N SAYS. George Delivers Himself of a Few Words in Keply to Scliaefer. New Yokk, November IS. George F. Slos sou, who is to play Jake Schaefer for the trophy of the world's championship at billiards on December 1, talked spiritedly yesterday of the little Wizard's references to the coming match in his newspaper interviews. He ap peared lo be amused more than anything else at fschaefer's remark that the. Slossonjtes were slow in putting up monev on their favorite, and bv Schaefer's anxiety to get $1,000 to $900 up on the match. "Bets prove dothing at all, as Schaefer ought to know by this time," he said. "The thing that counts and which "settles all billiard matches is the play at tho billiard table. Schaefer speaks as if he were pretty confident that he will produce that play and carry off the cup. Perhaps ho will, and then again perhaps he won't. AH that I have got to say is that I am plajing with creat steadiness, and am very well satified with the records of my practice thus far. If ray inemorv serves me aright, both Schaefer and Ives came to town with a brass baud and a lot of vocal fireworks at the time of the Chickerinc: Hall tournament, lalso be lieve that the newspapers of that period, if ex amined, will show that they both went back done up in crape. Their return to the West w as in the naturo of a luneral procession. Per haps that thing may happen again this time; but whether it does or not, I will be in business at the same old stand, and 1 don't believe that anybody will discover that it has made any change in me, wi'ichever way the came results. I will have no horn to blow if I win, and if 1 lose nobody will know better than myself that I alone am to blame. I have bet $500 cash out of my own pocket upon the game, and everybody ran rest assured that 1 will try my level best to win it back, together with Scnaefer's $500. Let no body imagine that I do not estimate Schaefer at his exact value as a billiardist, and know ex actly what I have got before me. Nobody has greater respect for Schacfer's skill as a player than L I know that he is the hardest man in the world to beat, but I think from the way I feel now that I can beat him. My only trouble has always been indigestion, but I never was in better condition in my life than I am just now, and I am dieting myself." felosson said that he could not consider the proposition mule by Ives on Sunday of a chal lenge for a match of $500 a side at 11-inch balk line, the winner to take everything. "When this match for the world's cbamnion ship is over," he said, "it may be time to" talk abont tbe game with Ives. At the same time, it seems to me appropriate that he should de vote his attention more especially to Maggioli, who defeated him the last time they met. When he redeems that defeat he, will be in a Fnsition to talk business with somebody else, t doesn't seem to me that he is in that position now." ABOUT THE PUGILISTS. Anstln Gibbons Will Fight Myer and Murphy Sa s He ATas Dragged. Jim Gibbons, the manager of Austin Gib bons, of Patersnn, said to a Sun reporter yes terday that be would make a match with Billy Myer, of Streator, 111., according to tbe terms offered by tbe Southern Athletic Club of New Orleans. "All we want is 24 hours' notice," said Gibbons, "and we will meetP. J. Donohue, tbe club's Eastern agent, and sign articles. If all the champions are afraid of Myer. we are nut. As to his proposition to bet 2,000 on the outside, we are ready for that, too, and only await notice from Mr. Donohue as to time and place to arrange matter4. It was our intention to go to England to meet Bill Reeder, Overton, Carnev or some other of the lightweights over there, but this offer from the Southern Ath letic Club suits us well enough tor the present." Johnny Murphy, the Cbarlestown bantam weight, has entirely recovered from the effects of his recent battle with George Dixon. He is disagreeably surprised at the way he was treated bv certain Boston sporting men who pretended to be his stancbest friends. In conversation with a Boston G obe reporter Murphy said: "I have found out why I made such a poor showing in my fight with Dixon. I was drugged, and the parly that gave me the dose is a prominent sporting man of this city. He was in my corner that night, and the way he yelled wuuld give one the impression that he was my backer. Up to 7:30 o'clock on the night ot the battle I was feeling like a race horse and fit to fiih for my life. Fifteen minutes later this sport gave me a drink which contained the drug, and, in order that tbe dose could have time to work on toe, the fight was delayed nearly an hou -. When! stepped into the ring I had no power in my arms. I haa lots of chances to get my right on Dixon's jaw, but when I started to get in a slow 1 did not have strength enough lo do any execution." EAST END FOOTBALL MEN To Tackle the Indiana Normal School Team on. Thanksgiving. The Fast End Gymnastic Club football team will go to Indiana, Pa on Thanksgiving Day to trim tbe Normal School team of its laurels. The local team will take a number of members of the gymnastic club to yell victory or carry their remains from tbe field of defeat, as the case may be. The team will be made up as follows: G.

RAIDING THE STOCKS. George Gould on a Vigorous, Cam paign Against Pacific Mail. BETTER FEELING IK WALL STREET. Two failures, One for a Million, HaYe Ko Effect on the Market. BASKS COME TO THE KESCUE lfiriClAL TILED RAH TO TOE TJlSrATCH.l New Yoek, November 18. The day in "WalL street was comparatively encouraging. Two failures were announced at the Stock Exchange, one of which had been half ex pected for a week or ten days, and the other of an individual broker, whose business and operations have been modest for some time. JNeither affected the market The trading in stocks as not as extensive as on Monday, nor were prices as well maintained. A number of stocks broke badly uuder what appeared to be urgent sales in some cases, while in others vigorons raiding did the work. Among those stocks was New Jersey Cen tral, which sold at 92 and xlosed h$ per cent lower than on Monday, at 91J. Jay Gould's Missouri Pacific, which he has been predicting would cross the Rock Island this year in the market, dropped to 58X and closed 2 per cent lower than the previous day at 59. . Eock Island, however, lost only one point by the day's operations. Pacific Mail, against which it is currently reported that ex-President George J. Gould is running a campaign, directed against the people who obtained control of the companv last spring, was raided down to 28)4 and' closed 3f points lower than on Monday at 30. On licht transactions, Union Pacific closed 2 per cent lower than on Monday. An otuer movent which attracted much atten tion, and which will interest every one, was a drop of nearly three poiuts in silver bull ion certificates to 974, the lowest price sil ver has sold at since the new silver law was enacted. A CHANGE KT FEELING. The feeling of the street was not as easy as it was Monday. There was quite as large a number of actual buyers on hand, but their operations are not large enough to check the declining tendency of the market, and there is little disposition on the part of the brokers to permit trading on margin. Oue of the failures was that of C. W. Gallandee & Co., note brokers. The firm has made an assignment to C. Elliot Minor. The assignee states that the liabilities of the firm amount to about $1,000,000. The fail ure is due to the action of several banks in loans to tbe firm. BANKS TO THE" KESCWE. The banks made a little progress to-day toward relieving- the situation, but how much it is impossible to state,vas the Clear ing House authorities, in deference to the wishes of its members, and also to encour age the taking out of loan certificates, has decided not to give further particulars of the issue of those certificate". It is understood, however, that about $3,000,000 of certificates were issued to-day and that nearly all of them were taken by the stronger banks. It rs asserted that a number of the banks have decided to take them out at the instance or customers who may require and are entitled to greater accommodations than the banks can supply from their cash on hand. There are plenty of business men, whose judgment is generally conceded to be good, who contend that the banks would have disposed oi the tears of certain of their num ber and the pride of others in the matter of taking out certificates, if the Clearing House Association had decided en Monday morning to issue a round amount of certifi cates, ot which each bank should take its share.

Tho "Wrecked Structure a Solar Refinery In Process of Construction for the Standard OH CompanyMen "Working Upon and Above the Structure. rSFKCIAL TELEtJBAM TO THE DISPATCH.l IiiaiA, November 18. About 10 o'clock this forenoon a frightfnl accident occurred at the Standard Oil Company's Solar Ke finery, resulting in the death of ,two men and the injury of a dozen others, some very seriously. The a:cident happened at, the frame work of an additional building over a number of additional stills that are being put in, while 50 or CO men are engaged working around aud under it. The timbers came down with a fearful crash, dashing the men upon it to the ground below aud amid .the falling timbeni. In a very short Xime workmen came to the rescue and went to work extracting those who were caught in tbe ruins. It was found that two were dead: E. Spriedel and James Cable, who had bsen cnught and crushed by the timbers. Cable's breast was crushed into a pulp, theuzh the skin was not broken, save a slight cut just above the heart. Spriedel was strufk-on the head by abeam, and the toD andv left side of his head was crushed in like au egg shell, and his right eye was torn out. The injured are: "W. F. Cox, married, of Bossville, who hal his leg broken near the thigh; JeffAVinner, married, had his spine injured and was badly hurt about the kid neys. These two men are in a critical con dition to-night and may die before morning. J. P. Hine was bruised about the body; George Marks had his leg crushed; "W. F. Tone had his hand cut and leg lractured; Charles A. Moore had his shoulder and one leg injured, his held cut aud was otherwise bruised: Ed. Qninlen, cut on chin and over the eye; D. Nicmitria and J. Graci, Ital- ,1 tans, both badly hurt; and Walter .Law rence, George Bond and James Strap severely injured. Toe "wrecked building is a mammoth frame structure, 175 feet long, 45 feet wide and 48 feet high. The frame work had been built over a number of new stills recently furnished, and workmen had just begun putting on the corrugated iron roofing and siding, when, without warning, the immense .frame work collapsed, scattering great beams, heavy iron work and timbers in every direction. 'eavy timbers are broken and twisted, the iron braces are torn from their sockets and bent, and the entire ap pearance is as if a cyclone had passed over the structure. NEW OELEANS AGAIN EXCITED. Italians Are Intimidating "Witnesses and Citizens Threaten Lynching. New Orleans, November 18. The anti-Italian excitement has been revived by a growing belief thr.t the Hennessey assas sins cannot be convicted. Threats of lynch ing iu case of a miscarriage of justice are freely made. Some of the witnesses for the prosecution have b!en threatened, and oth ers have been induced to leave the city. The Italians are terriblv incensed at al leged maltreatment of prisoners, and their Inore conservative organ, the Gazetta Catolica, calls tor an Italian ironclad in the Mississippi to protect them. The Italian Consul has preferred charges ot cruelty to the prisoners. BANQUET OF BUSINESS KEN. Sepew and Ex-President Cleveland Address the Chamber of Commerce. New York, Novsmber 18.

The Smoking Jacket. t The most fashionable and probably the mest popular indoor garment is the smoking jacket It is a fancifully designed sack coat, made of light cloth and lined with quilted satin or silk. The colors are mostly dark and quiet shades of brown, sage green and blue. The collar, the edges of the coat, the cuffs' and pockets are laced with quilted satin a shade darker than the material of the jacket- The collar has a Tuxedo roll and is fastened by knots of corded silk rope or "froc." There is nothing that will make a more suitable holiday present than one of the above jackets. Our line this season is unusually large.

A very un usual scene occurred this morning at Hat field, about six miles from this town, the country seat of tbe Marqms of Salisbury. Superintendents Hood and Beynolds, ac companied by two police constables, went to Hatfield railway station, which is opposite the entrance of Lord Salisbury's estate, for the purpose of arresting three men who were suspected of burglary. As soon as the latter caught sight of the policemen they drew a revolver of the bulldog type, and the first one hred at iteynolds, tne second at uood and the third at one of the constables named "Wright. Hood returned the fire of the sec ond burglar, and immediately a lively inter change of shots ensued, with the result that 21 were discharged in the course of a minute. By a remarkable chance not a single bul let took effect, aud they all lodged in the wall of the park of Hatfield House. This scene took place In broad daylight and in the presence of several onlookers. The burglars eventually fled into the wood, and were hotly pursued by the police. One of their number was captured, but the others are still at large. IT "WAS LOADED. An Old Bomb Explodes "With Terrible Fatal Results. IBT DUNLAF'S CABLE COMPANY. LONDON, November 18.
