neck. in hoy; Rutherford second, Hook
Hooking apparently a fair thiri, and the
rest being well In the rear, getting the dis
lance flag in their faces To the surprise OF
The whole ernblRge, Hook Hooking was
ALEC aGjUdged distaucFd. Tho ruling in his
case excited universal ii ssatisfactiOa. Much
urfavOrab!e comment was made o. the
judges, IL being claimed by many that Hook
Hooking had run & waiting race, aud was
good 10 RON q second heat, coming in very
am, and was shut out purposeiy to pre-
vent such result. The packers OF Ruther-
ford now began to hedge, Foster having
the call in the nOOls at two to one.

THROUGH TRAINS FROM RosToN To
WAsHINGTON.-We are surprised to see an
announcement in the New York Herald that
the authorities OF that city will probably en-
GeavOr 10 prevent the contamination OF the
arrangements recently made 10 transport
passengers between Washington and Boston
without change OF cars and without stop
page In or transfer through the streets OF
New York. The proposed plan was 10 run
cars from the depot at Jersey City upon
large steamer and transport them to Mott
Haven, where they were to be run off upon
branch of the New York and New Haven
railroad, and thence, by rail, direct to Bos-
ton. By this arrangement the annoyance of
q transfer in coaches across Manhattan
! island would be avoided and from twenty
minutes TO half an hour saved. Similar
methods for preventing loss of time and in-
all other cities and prominent points In
the country; and when the old policy
or com pelling change of cars has been
have bitterly denounced it. Heretofore the
peculiarittes of the position OF New York
have prevented unrestricted through travel
IA her envlrons, but now that serious effort
is made 10 overcome the natural obstacles
created by her surroundings, the Herald
states That members of the common council
claim that 1t ''will injure New YORK, and
tend that their jurisdiction extends over the
waters surrounding the island of Manhat-
tan. and that "the corporations interested
viii be compelled TO secure a ferry fran
chise before they can carry out the arrange
ment" If the corporation counsel sustafns
this view they propose TO compel the com
panieS TO pay an immense sum for the prIyi-
lege of carrying passengers by the Quickest

READING FOR THE FIREMEN.-At the
regular meeting OF the fire underwriters il
January, the subject of giving a dinner 10
the members of the fire department was dis
cussed, and a committee appointed to take
the matter into consideration and report at
a future meeting as to the necessary arran ge.
ments, expense, &c. In the meantime the
home insurance companies took the matter

treat given on the ed instant at the house of

OF giving dinner to the firemen, which was

the subject of encouraging the boys in start

met the appreciation of the entire board. II
was unanimously voted to appropriate

for that purpose in the purchase OF books to
