WHO WILL BE BOSS?
That's the Weighty Question That Onr
Baseball Magnates May Try
and Settle To-Day.
iX IMPORTANT RUMOR CURRENT.
HcGuniiigle Said to Be Willing to leave
Provided He Can Get His Draft
for $200 Honored.
"WHAT EASTERN AUTHORITIES SAY.
An Jnlcrc&ng Opinion Ibcut Eicycliii!: anl Health
Oiicral Sporting Xcs of Hie Day.
To-day will likely settle tho unpleasant
rapture in the local ball club, nnd if a settle
ment is reached all the patrons ot the club
will doubtless be thankful Tho present
course of the club is a sure way to disrespect
and ruin, and this lact ought to prompt tho
directors to act with all the firmness pos
sible. The question to be settled is, whether
Manager Hanlon is to remain in his position,
or oi nether ho is to be replaced by W. II.
McGunnigle. Already the directors havo
decided that Mr. Hanlon is to have charge,
but the President of the club, in defiance of
the director, declare that Mr. McGunnigle
shall rule. Tho matter, therefore, to be set
tled today is whether or not tho directors
aie prepared to upport their own action or
retreat in fav or of the President, who defies
them
THE TWO OrrOSINO PARTIES.
There are four directors in the city, but
the prc-ident has power ot attorney to act
forMr utcn This means that thero will
be two a otes for McGunnigle If the other
three directors, Mcis. Sc indrett, Kerr and
Jlrown. stick to the resolution pised by
them Thurdaj, then Mr Hanlon will be the
Manager. It i natural to think that these
three gentlemen hae backbone enough to
Ftand thcirground,and il they do the trouble
will 'oon be ended.
It was rumored last ecnlng that Mr. Mc
Gunni2lo does not desire to remain here
nnder the circumstances, and that as soon
ns he can secure the $J00 which the draft for
warded him calls lor he w ill depart. The
gentleman could not be seen last evening,
and the truth of the rumor could not
bo verified. IJut if it is true, it is
the wisest course ho can pursue, and it
"ttillal-obe the most honorable course for
the club to pnj linn the SXO on the under
standing that the trouble ends. Certainly
tin- would be the bettei plan for ever body
concerned as it would be a kind ofcompio
mie that would be indorsed by the patrons
ol the club. Mr. McGunnUrle himself de
clares that he does not w lsh to stand m
Till! 'WAY Or HVliMONY
nnd If he pursue- the course abov o named
the Tre-ident will then have no weapon
left with which to fight the directors. It
inu-t be evident to Mr McGunnigle that the
majoritj ofdirectors do not want htm and
that fact is snro to hai c some influence w ith
a gentleman ot his Mist experience and in
telligence 1 he condition of affairs in the local club is
being pointcdlj commented on b Eastern
papers The New York Telegram has the
lollow ing to -ay on the matter- "The Brook
Ij n captain"-, w ork has not hi anj means
given sjiisiuction, nnd he has been accused
of not plaa ing the best for the interest of
tne chid rne Cincinnati ana Pittsourg
men h.uc an cntirclj different grievance.
J-atbim ha- been accused bv-hls plavon. ot
JnMnccntv m controlling them on the field,
and he found that Hues justly inflicted were
never paid. Tins diguste"d him and he
kicked against being a mere ilenrehcad on
the team and still held le-ponslblo as its
captain A change of affairs took place. In
the Mnol.v CItj Ed Hanlon's position has
been enVorse His orders hav e not only
been ignored b v the pla crs, but w hen he
attempted to enforce them J Palmer O'Ncil
nnd o' her- rofu-ed to indorse his action.
Natural! dimensions occurred in tho train,
and pla ers w er released and signed with
out tne captain'sknow ledge Browning and
rtaley were let go and hugirt was engaged
without first consulting that experienced
captain
THE STARS THAT TAILED.
"When the stars signed by tho club failed
to vin game- Hanlon wa held responsible.
Manager McGunnigle, who has piloted the
Lowells and Brooklyn- into the champion
ship and gathered a creditable team in Prov
idence this sea -on. was negotiated with to
take charge of the Pittsburgs He resigned
from Providence and went to Pittsburg,
onlx to find that the club directors would
not jviv him the .ilarv ho demanded. Those
lew point- ac-ount for the poor position
held in the League race by the Pittsburgs
and Jtrookljns Hanlon and Ward never
tried harder to m ike their clubs successful,
but u.itil the directors take their hands oil
the wheels of theso respective teams they
will fail"
There is a great amount of force in the
above but it must not be forgotten that Mr.
Ilynic nas also increased Wnrd s troubles by
talking so disparagingly of him on cvery
pOssible occasion

ISTEEEETIKG TO 'CYCLERS.
A Great Authority shows How Wheeling Is
Injurious to lfenlth.
Pr. B. W. Richardson, in tho Asclcjnail,
points out that, unless certain essential con
ditions are observed, cycling Is inevitably
injurious to health Ho thinks th it it is
nlwajsbost todelaj tbu commencement of
cycling until tho body-Is closely approach
ing to Its raatarltj La en adult cj cllsts who
are too m.'ch in tho saddle almost in ari
alily acquire what may be called tne cyclist's
figure, which is not graceful, and is not in
dicative of tho full possession of perfectly
balanced bodily powers.
"Hence," sajs the doctor, "I should
not recommend cycling as a pastime
of tho schools, and I should not faa or It
lis an exerciso even during holiday
times from school, except in the most
moderate degree. The systematic pursuit
of evcling should never bo fully commenced
tintfl the rider has attained maturity that
is to say, until tho ape of 21 years has been
attained. The effect ot cycling on the
upper extremity of the arm and forearm Is to
slightlv bend tho limb, theleformity taking
placo In the armbone and in tho fingers,
and to bring about an unnatural curve of
tho shoulders. On tho lower limbs cycling
tells as markedly as it does In tho spine;
and, as the lowei limbs perform the greater
part of the work, they usually feel the effects
of it most distinctly. Hiding brings out and
exaggerates anv dofonnlty, howovcr slight.
Tho pelvis of tho rider, now practically a
part of the machine, is fixed to it, nnd is al
most as rigid a itself. In this position of
tilings tho thighbone Is placed under un
usual strain. The largo muscles in tho foro
part of tho thigh are emploj ed In extending
or lifting up the leg at great disadvantage of
lovernge. What the strain is on these mus
cles ecrv joungcvclist knows to his cost,
nnd it is 'not until "thej get a kind of extra
natural power that riding Is easy. Tho
pressure upon tho thighbono causes bovt-leggodness."

CLOUDBIJEST AND LANDSLIDE.
It Strikes a Cabin and Demolishes Its Sleep
ing Occupants.
Golden, Col., July 2C Aterrific wash
out and landslide combined occurred last
night on the Colorado Central road. A
cloud burst about three miles west of Idaho
Springs on a mountain and struct the rail
road track at a place called Fall lliver. The
w ater rushing clown the side of the moun
tain carried with it an immense amount of
sand, gravel and great rocks.
It struck a cabin on the hillside in which
a man named IJrooks was sleeping and
wiped it out of existence. The unfortu
nate man has not been seen since, and it is
probable that his body is under the pile of
debris winch cocrs the railroad track.
After striking the cabin the slide continued
down over the Colorado Central track, cov
ering it for a distance of 400 feet to a depth
of 15 feet with tightly packed sand and
bowlders. Over 150 feet of the track was
completely washed away.
PEAYED FOE AN H0TJE.
Tim Cnrlons Freak of the Brother of tho
Painter of Angelina.
Chicago, July 26 Pierre Millett, a
French artist, who claims to be the brother
of the famous painter of "The Angellus,"
came to Chicago July 19 and registered at
the Grand Pacific Hotel. This afternoon
he attracted much curious attention by
kneeling on the steps of the Chicago Na
tional Bank and remaining in that position
for nearly an hour, apparently absorbed in
prayer.
AVhen taken "in custody by a police offi
cer, he said he had just received a message
from God to kneel there and pray for an
hour. Guests of the hotel say he has
shown signs of insanity for several days.
He is a spiritualist and is supposed to have
become demented on the subject of spir
itualism. The people here who appear to
know anything of his past sav that he for
merly resided in Boston, and later in New
York. They do not credit his statement
that he is" a brother of the celebrated
painter, Millet.
TOO GEEAT A GEADE.
The Freight Engineer Conld Not Stop
His Train in Time.
SAW LIGHTS ON THE EXCURSION
The Danger Signal Came Too late to Avert
the Catastrophe.
DISCREPANCY AS TO THE NUMBER DEAD
Dayton, O., July 2G. "William G.
Douglass, one of the foremen of the National
Cash "Works, and who was also one of the
committeemen in charge of the Cincinnati,
Hamilton and Dayton exoursion to "Woods
dale, tells this story of the Saturday night
wreck, in which three persons were killed
and 40 seriously" injured:
The train of 15 crowded cars started on its
return trip from "Woodsdale about 7 o'clock,
and about an hour latter the accident oc
curred at Jliddlctown. A drawbar about
the middle of the excursion train broke,
and they stopped at Middletown to patch it
up for the run to Dayton. Brakemen were
immediately sent out with red flags to flag
the approaching train, and nearly half an
hour was consumed in repairing the dis
abled car.
Red lights were not promptly changed to
the rear of this car, though the tram was
pulling out when the accident occurred at
nearly 9 o'clock. Tn o hundred and fifty
men, women and children were in the last
three coaches and all knew that Ireight
train 2vo. 44 was following and they appre
ciated and talked of their danger.
CALLED ATTENTION TO THE DANGER.
Some of them called Conductoi Peter G.
IlInnA 'p ntlnnliAn .n .V.n, ......ll .... J t.
Ivaiuuvj a aiiiuiuu lu liie'll jifcrjl, !U1U 11C
cautioned them that ii they heard train 44
coming tney snoitid jump irom the car.
Five minutes later the awful disaster was
upon them. The excursion was slowly
creeping off the side track when an ominous
roaring was heard from the expected train
-vu. , men iiui over a quarter oi a nine
away.
Xearerand clearer came the monster
mogul -with 35 loaded cars and when in
sigut of Middletown station Engineer
Schw ind saw the flagman waving the dan
ger signal and he immediately called for
brakes, shut off steam and applied the sand.
He saw that a collision was inevitable.
Then he and his fireman jumped and an in
stant later the crash came, a rear-end col
lision of mighty force. The excursion train
was pulling out on the main track and all
but the two hind coaches had left the siding
whpn the mogul engine with the heavy
train behind it? went plowing through.
The two reac cars and human freight were
hurled into the ditch, and the next coach
was struck fairly in the end and the loco
motive pushing under elevated it to an
angle of 45 degrees and there it stood, filled
wit n suncKing people.
THE CAIi CATJGHT FIRE.
Tliis car caught fire, but Engineer Schwind
and his fireman were able to extinguish the
blae by the use of a hose from the locomo
tive. The cars lay crushed in the ditch with a
mass of maimed and mangled people moan
ing in agonv, pleading for help. Rescuers
set to work at once to extricate them. Legs,
arms and heads could be seen through
broken windows or pinned under the wreck.
Shrieks of the helpless suflerers and moans of
the dj ing mingled arith the frantic cries of
mothers seeking husbands and children.
Many had been cut by glass and timbers in
the rush to escape, and bloody faces and
hands bore testimony to the great number
who were injured. v
Physicians and citizens of Middletown
were soon nt the scene to join in rescuing
the unfortunates. The terror stricken ex
cursionists were made comfortable in the
houses, the three dead persons were properly
caied for, and the injured received all neces
sary attention.
All traffic on the railway was suspended
and relief trains were the only cars moving.
Passengers of the ill-fated train began ar
riving here at midnight, but it was not
until 7:30 in the morning that the special
train reached here with the 15 most seriously
injured people.
THE KILLED AND WOUNDED.
Three persons were killed outright:
"William Matthews, aged 13; Miss Lydia
Frcier, aged 22; Frank Simoner, aged 17.
Four are in a critical condition at Elizabeth
Hospital: Joseph B. Cleval, mechanical
draujlitsman, left arm crushed off at shoul
der; Franc Patterson, aged 21, lett arm
amputated above elbow; Joseph H. Swev
erly, aged 25, of Pottsville, Pa., spinal in
jury, and James Murphy, aged 50; terribly
injured in Email of back. Miss Mary
Heese, of Osboni, O., was badly injured and
also the following named from Davton:
"Warren Thompson, Fred "Wcidncr, Mark
Merick, Edith Tuttle, P. S. Tuttle, Kate
Schlciu, Elden M. Ueason and wife, Frank
Iteigcr. William Oman, Mary Gram, Annio
Venard, Samuel Lohr, Charles Mers, Mag
gie Frcs, Annie Brennan, Pearl Shorthill
and "W. C Thompson. ) There are as many
more with bruises and other slight injuries.
A tramp named James "Wilson, of Colum
bus, Ohio, who, with his two little boys,
was having a free ride on the freight train,
says he is a railroader by occupation, and
was on the third car from the front when
approaching Middlctown Saturday night;
that he plainly saw the red lights swinging,
and that Schwind tried to stop the train
but could not. The heavy cars crowded
him into the excursion train. Tw o cars of
the wrecked train were brought here this
afternoon en ronte to the Lima shop for
repairs. Both arc badly shattered.
Frank Patterson is in a critical condition
to-night from the loss olblood.
There appears to be a discrepancy some
where concernipg the number killed at
Middlctown. An eye witness, a perfectly
reliable man, said to-night he w ould make
an oath that seven people were killed. A
telephone message irom Middletown at 5
o'clock to-night insists that there were four
dead taken irom the wreck and that three
died later. The railroad company insist
that but three are dead.
A E0MANCE OF THE EIYEE.
"Why an Allegheny Engagement
"Was
Broken OIT.
It was the same old pair the young man
and his best girl. This time they had been
up the Allegheny boating, and were return
ing home as night was falling. It fell some
where near the Seventh street bridge. No
one was hurt. The lady was" at the helm,
and the youth was pulling energetically
with the stream. Some distance from the
Allegheny side and right across their course
a deserted barge had been anchored for the
night. Through some mismanagement on
the part of the fair steerer the boat crashed
up against the obstruction, and confusion
follow ed. The gallant youth, thinking all
was lost, quickly decided that this was a
case where presence of mind was nowhere
with absence of body, and speedily
clambered out of the ill-fated skiff onto the
top ot the barge, leaving the maiden to her
fate.
She, however, was of a different mold, and
seeing at a glance that the boat was in no
way injured, seized the oars and pulled for
the shore.
Half an hour afterward a shivering and
much disgusted wretch was rescued by a
passing skiff and put ashore. Next morn
ing he called on his fair companion, only to
be received with scorn aud contumely.
Some day he hopes to be able to explain,
but in the meantime the engagement is off
and anotherfellow is squandering his salary
on ice cream for tho heroine of the Alle
gheny. FOUND DEAD IN BED.
John Devlin, or the Sonthslde, Dies Sud

John Devlin, aged about 40 years, was
found dead in his bed at 2 o'clock yesterday
morning. For the past ten days Devlin
has been tho victim of a severe attack of
summer complaint, but on Saturday he was
Bomewhat better and able to walk about.
On Saturday night, he and his brother,
Patrick Devlin, retired together, and at 2
o'clock Patrick Devlin awakened and found
his brother dead.
Devlin's remnins are lying at the resi

Devlin's sudden death.
HUNS ON THE RAMPAGE.
TTIEY THREATEN TO BREAK OCT INTO
A ItlOT AT STEELTON.
Serions Trouble Expected at Any Moment
English-Speaking Strikers Guarding the
Works and r.-vtroling the Streets A Big
meeting for To-Day.
fFPECIAl. TELEGRAM TO TnE DISPATCn.l
Steelton, Pa., July 26. Serious trou
ble is expected hero hourly, and Burgess
Ileagy is making every preparation to quell
a riot. The Hungarians are the dangerous
element, and.it has been with the greatest
difficulty that they have been held back.
The majority of these men are desperately
determined to strike and threaten
any moment to storm the steel
works and compel the 500 colored men
now working to come out. About 50 Huns
have arrived to go to work, but their fellow
countrymen have them penned up in a
house to-night and threaten to kill them if
they go to work. To-morrow morning these
men will attempt to reach Lochiel, where
they will board a train and be carried into
the mill.
The English-speaking strikers have so far
ptevented the Huns from committing any
breach of the peace, and are guarding the en
trance of the mills as vigilantly as the depu
ties within. The steel company claims it
has from 1,000 to 1,200 men at work,
while the Amalgamated men concede
from 500 to 600. To-night the
streets are being patroled by the strikers
and every stranger is requested to render an
account of himself. If not satisfactory he
is promptly ordered out of town. The strik
ers declare they have detected a number of
Pinkerton men in the city.
The strikers have appealed to the mer
chants of Harrisburg for food and financial
aid, and response has been liberal, but not
sufficiently so as to prevent suffering to
thousands of men, women and children,
who are without means of support. An open
air meeting of the citizens and strikers is to
be held to-morrow, at which the situation
will be discussed. President "Weihe is
looked for and expected to speak at the
meeting.
NEABLY A NAVAL DISASTEE.
The Torpedo Boat Cashing Narrowly Es
capes a Collision at New Tork.
New Yokk, July 26. The United States
torpedo boat Cushtng narrowly escaped
colliding with the Hamilton avenue ferry
boat Montauk off the battery at 12:30 o'clock
to-day. The Montauk was crowded with
passengers, and for a time there was a
panic. A rush was made for the life
preservers, and one woman fainted. The
prompt action of the officers of both vessels
prevented what might been a serious loss of
life. The sharp prow of the Cushing was
within a foot of the ferryboat's hull when
she began to back off.
At the time of the occurrence the Cushing
was going at a high rate of speed to over
take the flagship Chicago that,
with three others of the White
Squadron, had passed up the
East river some time before. The Cushing
was acting as Admiral "Walker's dispatch
boat, and nad just delivered some special
instructions to the Newark at the North
fiver anchorage.
MURDERED "WHILE MILKING.
.No Traces of the Body or of the Murderer
Found by the Neighbors.
Cleveland, July 26. What is believed
to be a cold blooded murder was committed
at Mentor, O., last night, William Wood,
an unmarried farmer living alone, being the
viotlm. Shooting and screams were heard
in the direction of Wood's house, but when
the neighbors went to ascertain the cause
they could find neither Wood nor his body.
He had just begun milking and there was
great alarm among the cattle about the
barn. A party has been searching ali day,
but no trace of the body can be found and it
is believed that he was murdered by some
body who concealed the corpse in" a deep
ravine back of the barn. Wood has paid
attention to the daughter of fanner Charles
Schwind, and he had a jealous rival farm
hand named Hermann, who is under arrest,
accused of the murder. He protests his
innocence.
EVIDENCE TO 2E REVIEWED.
Indignation at Columbus Over the Action
of the Elliott Jury.
Coldmbus, O., July 26. Judge Pugh
announces to-night he will be ready to
morrow morning at 9 o'clock to furnish the
jury in the Elliott murder case the informa
tion for which they asked bearing on the
tragedy. It is expected a verdict will be
reached to-morrow.
There has been great interest in the case
to-day, and much expectation as to what the
result will be. The impatience caused by
the failure of the jurymen to agree has in
some quarters assumed the form of indigna
tion, and expressions indicating possible
violence can be heard on all sides.
CHICAGO'S STOCKYARDS.
Tuesday Will Decide the Place to Which
They Will Be Removed.
Chicago, July 26. If present plans are
not interfered with an important meeting
will be held Tuesday in Boston, when it
will be decided almost definitely whether
the Union Stockyards of Chicago will be re
movedto Tolleston, Ind., or not.
Friday notices were sent out from Boston
to the big stockholders throughout the
country and to the packing firms, to whom
inducements to move to a different site at
Stickney have been held out, inviting them
to attend a meeting next Tuesday in Boston.
It is understood that before this meeting
will be laid the action of the meeting of the
European stockholders held last week in
London.

EVIDENCE OP GREAT IMPORTANCE
That Is Being Held Under Cover in the
Interest of Justice.
GOV. TATTIS0N ANXIOUS TO TESTIFY
SPICIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DtSPATCIt.1
Philadelphia, July 26. District At
torney Graham has in his possession docu
mentary evidence of great importance. It
was furnished to him by Mayor Stuart's ex
perts, Faunce and Brown, but it is the
opinion of both City Solicitor Warwick and
Mr. Graham that the interests of the city
and the ends of justice will best be served
by withholding the information from publi
cation for the present. :
It is stated that the letters, memoranda,
.private papers and accounts of John Bard
sley furnished the facts for the material now
in the hands of the District Attorney, and
it was originally intended to have the mat
ter laid before the investigating committee
by the experts, who oyere present at the
session held on Friday last, but just before
the meeting a conference was held, and it
was decided that the wisest course to pur
sue would be to hold back certain portions
of the evidence until expected future de
velopments should make it more valuable.
what the letters show.
The following letter from Mayor Stuart,
which was received by Chairman Van Osten
on Thursday last, shows that at the time of
writing there was no question that these
matters were t5 be given to the committee
on the following day. The letter was over
looked at the meeting:
Mr. William Van Osten:
Dear Sir In leply to your letter of the
23d inst. I beg to state that I have directed
Messrs. Faunce, Brown and Barlow, as re
quested therein, to report to your commlt
teo in Councils chambers to morrow (Fri
day), tho 21th inst., at 3 r. m., and to take
with them tho documentary evidence you
allude to. These gentlemen will be at the
service of the committeo at any time here
after upon notico to them from you. I am,
respectfully, Enwis S. Stuart,
Mayor.
When the Friday session was over Chair
man Van Osten returned to his office and
found these two communications awaiting
him, but it was too late to make their con
tents known to the other members of the
committee:
GRAHAM AND WARWICK PROTEST.
Wm. Van Osten, Esq.:
Dear Sir Since my last communication to
yon I find that your committee has called
for tho production of certain letters which
w 111 be thus made public and so fall into the
hands of the persons against whom It may
bo my duty hereafter to use them as evi
dence. To expose In advance the documen
tary evidence oi tne i,ommonwenuu is od-
vionsiy unwise. I therefore request that
your committee will not use any of tho let
ters in question. They have already largely
Doen in j our hands for personal inspection,
nnd I am willing to havo your committeo
examine and read them all. I do not know
what, if any, proseoution may be instituted
this depends on what conclusions I may
reach after all tho evidence is briefed and
the law carefully oxamined but in the
meantime I deem it to be my duty to pre
vent tho exposure of evidenco which may
be used hereafter by the Commonwealth.
Yours vory truly,
GtonoE S. Gr ham, District Attorney.
The communication from City Solicitor
Warwick is of the same purport and reads:
William Van Osten, Esq.:
Dear Sir I have Just been Informed that
the Committee ot Councils investigating the
accounts of John Bardsley, late City Treas
urer, has called for tho production of certain
lottcrs placed bv the Mayor's experts in the
hands of Mr. Graham, Distiict Attorney.
Tomako these letters public at this time
micht seriously affect the Interests of the

CATCHING THE MTJSKAL0NGE.
The Big Tish Is Llv cly and Must Be Clubbed
as Soon as Landed.
New York Times.
The favorite method of fishing for muska
longe is with a bass rod and big multiplying
reel, and with a small fish for bait. Long
casts are made from a boat, or even in some
places from the bank itself. Often in throw
ing bait for a black biss from a dock on the
banks'of Lake Ontario a fine, large muska
longc has been hooked and successfully
landed. Again, not infrequently, the fish
has carried away the tackle when light rigs
were used.
One fact should not be forgotten, never
allow the fish toremain in the boat for a
half minute without giving him a crack
with a club. They are a powerful fish, and
with a single leap will set a mark for a pro
fessional jumper to practice on. Another
caution that it may be well to mention is
that it is not safe to make investigations in
the mouth of the Esox nobilior until the
curious angler is sure that he is stone dead.
Many a finger has been severed, or at least
badly lacerated, through establishing too
f jmiliar relations with a muskalonge.
PALACE OF THE SILVEE KING,
Something About Mr. Mackay's Residence
In London's Fashionable Quarter.
The main feature of the residence of Mr.
Mackay, the "Silver King," in Carrolton
Terrace, London, is a grand staircase of
white marble, worthy of Versailles in its
greatest days. The principal dr.uv ing-rooms
are furnished in white and gold, the
smaller ones are hung w ith tapestry, and the
walls of the staircase are covered with silk
of a peculiarly soft oli e grey. From roof
to floor the house blazes with electric light,
and the scene which it illuminated when
Mrs. Mackay gave her entertainment re
cently was brilliant and vivacious in the
extreme. Mrs. Mackay is a devout Soman
Catholic, and almost as many of her guests
belong to the ancient Church as to the
modern Republic.
No More Bnll Fights in Mexico.
Boot and Shoe Weekly.
Bull fights are a thing of the past in the
City of Mexico. At the last bullfight,
given during the past winter, the spectators
took offense at a remark of one of the mata
dors, and simply tore down the place. It
has not been rebuilt, and those opposed to
this sport took advantage of the sentiment
which prevailed at the time and secured the
passage of a bill forbidding the sport.
CLEVELAND AS A LATPYEB.
Tlasn't Enough Business to Necessitate the
Use of a Stenographer.
Philadelphia Press.
In many respects the position of Cleve
land and Conkling before the bar and com
munity of New York, was singularly
coincident, but results have been
different, Conkling's success at the bar
was so phenomenal that that it will be sure
to become one of the most attractive tradi
tions of his profession. In 8 years he had
paid off oDligations of nearly 100,000, had
earned fees which for one year amounted to
nearly $200,000, and which at his death had
accumulated a property for him of nearly
5500,000.
Cleveland, on the other hand, has had no
phenomenal success. He himself has de
clared, with something of sorrow, that he
has had but little success. A friend meet
ing him one day recently was told by Cleve
land that he had sat up until 3 o'clock
the morning previous answering his mail,
which was mainly of a political or personal
nature. The friend advised him to employ
a stenographer, and Cleveland replied that
he had never learned the knack of dictating
replies to his correspondents. His friend
then said that he thought the labor of per
sonally replying to so many correspondents
would interfere witli his practice, and
Cleveland replied, and with just a hint of
sadness in his tone, "The fact is I haven't
got enough practice to have by correspond
ence seriously interfered with."
He has had one case in the Supreme
Court of the United States and he lost it.
He has sat as referee in several cases of
great importance, and in two, at least, of
them bis findings have been overruled by
the courts. The judges of somo of our
courts have made it a point to send as
many references to him as possible, and it
is surmised that these are the chief part of
his business at the bar. They are fre
quently profitable, but they are not accepted
fenerally by men whose standing at the
ar is that of pre-eminence.
BE0KE THE DIVING RECORD.
A Tailor Jumps Eighty-Five, Feet Into the
Water at Kansas City.
Kansas City, July 26. Frank Linden
stine, head cutter in a tailoring establish
ment in this city, this evening broke the
w orld's high diving record made by Joseph
Leuvenmark, also of this city, ten days ago.
Lindenstine dived from a platform 85 feet
high into the lake at Washington Park near
this city, breaking Leuvenmark's record of
five feet.
After going down about 50 feet Linden
stine turned so that he struck the water on
his shoulders. He came up winded, but
seemed none the worse for his high dive.
About 20,000 people witnessed the event.
The highest dive Lindenstine ever made be
fore was 60 feet from the elevated road
bridge over the Kaw river, Kansas City,
Kan. Lindenstine, who is 25 years old, is a
native of Sweden.
PEEPING AT THE PBESLDENT.
The Habit of Cape May Visitors Drives
the
Harrisons to the Second Floor.
New York Recorder.
Mrs. Harrison's charming niece, Mrs.
Dimmick, in her sprightly fashion de
scribes how the family has been actually
driven to the second story to live. She ex
plains: "This floor is open on all sides,
with so many doors and windows that one
could never be secure from intruders, so we
have abandoned it to formal uses altogether
and make our home upstairs.
"My uncle has indulged in several rather
forlorn attempts to domesticate himself in
the office across the hall, but he still spends
all his time, when not actually transacting
business, either in the upper hall, which
we make onr general sitting room, or on the
second veranda."
JESSE JAMES' HOUSE.
It Will Be Removed and Exhibited
In
Chicago at the Fair.
Kansas City, July 26. Mrs. Samuels,
the mother of Jesse James, the outlaw, has
received an offer from Chicago to exhibit
their house, a one and a half story log
structure, at the World's Fair. The house
was built in 1834 and came into the posses
sion of the James family in 1841.
It is situated four miles east of Kearney,
Mo. The upstairs is a low loft in which
the James boys used to hide, and the north
and east side's arc full of loopholes from
which those inside could shoot their ene
mies. The house will be moved to Kearney
where it will be placed on a flat car and
taken direct to Chicago.
BABBISTEES MUST WEAB WI0S,
Otherwise They May Confuse Witnesses In
Their Identifications.
A warning to English barristers never to
appear in court without their wigs and
gowns was administered by a rather amus
ing incident which happened in an English
court. A prisoner was on trial charged
with stealing tools from an outhouse.
One of the witnesses was asked to point out
the man whom he had seen steal the tools.
After some hesitation he pointed out the
learned council, who happened to be with
out his wig and gown, saying. "That's
him."
PROCEEDING AGAINST GAMBLING.
A Mexican Governor Who Docs Not Be
lieve rn Lotteries.
City op Mexico, July 26. Governor
Jose Ceballos, of this district, is proceeding
against gamblers and forbids the circulation
of all foreign lottery tickets, including
those of the States oi this liepublic which
were considered irresponsible.
The governor says he will not permit
bull-fighting. It is fashionable now to
accuse government officials of 'receiving
bribes when irresponsible concessionaires
are unable to fulfill their obligations, but
steps will be taken to stop this.
LEFT A LAEGE F0ETUNE.
A Brooklyn Widow Who Will Get a Million
From England.
New York, July 26. Eliza E. Knight, a
widow living in Brooklyn, is reputed to
have fallen heir to a large fortune in Dum
freeshire, Scotland, estimated to be between
5500,000 and ?1,000,000.
Most of the property, it is said, belonged
to the late Lord Annan, and came to the
Brooklyn widow by regular descent.
No Truck In Mexico.
Trucks ore almost unknown in Mexico.
Anything that cannot be loaded onto a

which fits round the neck and over the
shoulders. They get under the case and
walk the streets with it on their backs.

SEA1ERS EETUEMG.
Seven War Vessels Are Guarding the
Bering Sea Entrance.
ONE SCHOONER WAS CONFISCATED.
Her Master Disregarded the Warning and
Paid the Penalty.
OTHEESWILL SEAL IN BDSSIAN WATEES
Victoria, B. C, July 26. Sealing is
certainly stopped in Bering Sea and all the
Victoria fleets are now on the way home.
The entrance to Bering Sea is effectually
blocked, and is now patroled by five
American and two British war vessels. The
latter are the Nymphe and Pheasant, and
the. United States' vessels are the revenue
cutters Bear,' Bush and Corwin and the
gunboats Thetis and Mohican.
Last night the Victoria sealing schooner
E. B. Marvin arrived from the North,
having been seized by the United States
cutter Bush and tamed overto the Nymphe,
the latter giving the Marvin orders to sail
direct for this port and remain here. The
Marvin was notified at Sand Point by the
Bush that sealing was prohibited in the sea,
and nfter being furnished with a copy of
the proclamation of President Harrison
was ordered not to attempt to go into Bering
Sea under penalty of seizure.
No attention was paid to the warning and
Captain McDougall sailed for the sea, de
termined to wait until notified by a British
vessel. He was overhauled at Unalaska
afterward by the Kush and taken captive.
The schooner was turned over by the Bush
to the Nymphe, who ordered Captain Mc
Dougall to proceed here and wait further
orders.
ALL SCHOONERS HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED.
The Marvin's officers say that nearly
every schooner has recived notice, and they
will certainly be seized if they attempt to
enter the sea after being warned.
The Marvin brought news that on July 7
the sealer La Nymphe, of San Francisco,
was fired on by the Thetis between St.
George and St. Paul Islands. She tried to
escape from the Thetis, but was brought up
by a shot. Another schooner, name un
known, was also fired on, but succeeded in
escaping.
A few hours after the Marvin arrived, the
schooner Walter L. Eich entered the
harbor. The captain of the Rich
says he was about to 'enter Bering
Sea on July 23 at Unimak Pass entrance to
the sea when he was met by the United
States gunboat Thetis and handed a copy of
the proclamation. The captain was then
warned of the consequences should he ig
nore the warning. The Bich cruised off the
Pass for several days then started for Vic
toria. She got 21 skins after being notified
by the Thetis.
The American schooner Albert" Walker,
whose owner is at Kodiak, was also warned
at the same time as the Bich. Several
schooners are said to be already in the
sea.
WILL HUNT ON THE RUSSIAN SHORES.
A number of them are intending to go in
and hunt seal on the Russian snore and
defy both the United States and British
men-of-war.
At one o'clock this morning, July 26, the
schooner Ainoka entered the .harbor here.
The captain reports that 17 British and
American sealing schooners were caught
June 20 off Alitak Bay by the United
States steamer Thetis and warned not to
enter Bering Sea on pain of instant seizure.
The captain of the Ainoka decide to abide
by the order and returned to Victoria, but
some of the schooners intended to try and
enter Bering Sea and hunt seals on the
Russian side. The Ainoka left Alitak Bay
June 23.
A dispatch from Vancouver says: The
Vancouver Belle was the first of the sealing
fleet to return to this port. She arrived
last evening with 28 skins. She had just
entered Bering Sea on July 8 when she was
warned by the United States cutter Corwin
to leave, and she returned accordingly. At
that time 29 sealers had been warned. The
schooner E. B. Marvin had taken 14 skins
when she was seized by the Rush. The
Vancouver Belle brings news that the
schooner Beatrice, of this port, lost a boat
and three men.
