they will support the best men for the city

ic factions may put forward. and in so doing
endeavor to secure some advantages for the

generally supposed the London crew would
have it all their own way, but the result
told another tale. At the start Yale got
way On their boat first, but London led BY
half length ere they reached the bend of
the river. As they turned the bend and
sighted the island, Yale gained little by
little until che ran evenly with London,
while the latter disputed the ground
inch by inch. The excitement among
the spectators on shore and in the
steamers was intense, everybody seem

New YORK, Augusu 29.--Hardy Solomon,
late president of the South Carolina Bank
of Columbia, was arrested ON complaint Of
ex- Governor Robert X. Scott, of South Car

yond the reach of his creditors, and con-
yerting loaned bonds to his own use. Solo

A Severe Tumble in the Coal Market.
immense amount was sold. The prices
tumbled from 81 to 81 per ton on all grades.
The excitement at the offices of the coal
dealers down town was intense. Scarcely
any dealer is alone. Consultations and con.
ferences are holding in most every office.
Never before has there been so much in
terest taken in the price Of COAL
Mr.. Samuel Sloan, President OF the Della
ware and Lackawana company, said the
prices obtained are much lower than ex-
pected, but they are peace offering 70 the
public.
A. T. Swords said that the object of the
coal combination had been to diminish the
supply by taking measures to preyent over
stocking the market, but that now the same
effect had been brought about; the prcduc-
tion would be stopped because coal could
not be gotten out of the mines and deliv-
cred at the present prices. Other retail
Ooalcs6 04pE6sbcu UpIulO0E, ana
while acknowledging that the price of coal
would come down, added that it could not
keep down because it could not be supplied
at these rates.
The Coal Auction.
The great auction coal sale took place to
day, at noon, at Hanover square, which
was completely blocked with coal specula-
tors. Buyers from all parts of the country
were present. Intense excitement reigned
in the neighborhood, and wagons and
trucks and windows were filed with spec
tators, while the actual buyers were con-
gregated in dense masses around the suc-
tioneer's stand. The auctioneer read the
conditions of the sale, and announced that
it was perfectly bona fide, and that
no reservation was to be put on the ar.i-
cles offered for sale. He said there were
four companies represented in the sale, but
they were not combined in any way, and no
effort would be put forth by them to keep
the market up. Buyers could bid and rest
assured that their own Judgment was all
they had to contend with. The four CON-
panles selling coal were the Delaware and.
Hudson Canal Company; Delaware, Laeka-
wanna and Western Railroad Company;
Philadelphia and Reading Railroad Com
pany and the Pennsylvania Coal Company.

Our estimabAe friend, Mr.. Quintero, of th.
Picayune, is the victim of painful acci
dent. The spark Of fire from cigar alight
ing in the corner of his eye made a very
painful and distressing wound. The genia
"Don," however, consoles himself with the
reflection that there is no evil unrelieved
by good, as his enforced holiday gives tenn
porary employment to brilliant young
contemporary who was out of work.
Postmaster Paker who left for the North
in bad health some weeks since, and hse
been dangerously ill while away, is out Of
all danger, and will be home before the
campaign closes.
Mr.. Michael Egan, Of the tenth ward, q
well-known Irish citizen, was reported
dying on Monday. He has no intention of
stepping out" in that direction, but will
step out of his sick room in day or two.
He is convalescent.
The benefit to Mr.. Harry Pickles promises
to be a very brilliant affair indeed. The
sale of tickets has been something very
unsual, though far from being unmerited.
We shall rejoice with his host of other
friends to see him SO auspiciously started
upon his new career.
w. d. Farmer. Esq, who has received the
Democratic nomination for Congress in the
fifth district of Louisiana, favored us with
a cali yesterday. Mr.. Farmer is q gentle
man of extremely liberal views, and the
only marvel is that the Democrats of his
district should consent to accept him as q
candidate. This is hard district, however,
for Democrat to carry, and it was pretty
well understood that a man of extreme
views would stand no chance whatever of
an election. Mr.. Farmer is q LAWYER
OF large practice and great learning, q
gentleman of pleasing address and genial.
manner. He was an ardent Liberal Re.
publican in 1872, when there seemed to be
q chance for the Democracy to break away
forever from old party leadership. Per-
would follow him, for he shortly found his
way back into the confidence of the Democ-
racy. While We will probably never be
able to congratulate him on his election, We
can not but hope the Democrats will con-
tinue to nominate men of the character, Ca
pscity and integrity of Mr.. Farmer. He
left last evening for his home in Ouachita.
Hon. John Ray arrived at home yester-
day from Northern trip, during which he
took occasion to call upon Governor Hayes
