e-day was lovely. Hanlan was first ahoat,
shortly before IL o'clock, attended by Bright.
The spectators were numerous. The tide was
we'll on the flood. After exercise spin,
Hanlan, allowing Bright a long lead, dashed
off at 80 to the minute, taking tremendous
sweep and pulling his stroke light through.
He travelled at rare pace, without easing,
from the level bridge to the suspension bridge

to 3S. Passing Paradise he was striking 36,
which rate he maintained until half way up the
houghs, where he quickened to 38, finishing at

his admirers great satisfaction. They are con-

that the struggle will never be over until the
race is absolutely finished. Hanlan did a rat

GENERAL CAPITAL NEWS.
THE PEACE UNION.

WASHINGTON, May 3.-The President received
the universal peace union to-day and in reply
to an address SAID: It is hardly to be expect
ed should make any personal reply to the ad-
dress Just delivered to me or to the remarks
lust made AS a matter of course any reply
on matter of such Importance should, to be
of value, be carefully and maturely considered
As have not yet given this subject careful
consideration, and not caring to reply on the
spur of the moment, will not make any
formal answer. 1 will say, however, that with
the general sentiment, which is the foun-
dation of all such movements, am
heartily in favor. That is perhaps all
l should say. am very glad to nave met you.
The Delegates wished the President to under
stand his prevention of encroachment on lands
of the Indians in their Territory and obser-
vance of the treaty with the Indians met the
strong support and appreciation of all we'll dis
posed people of the country. The President
said: 1t is certainly gratihcatlon to me to
know you take sides with us in that matter.
The stand we have taken will be made a fact.
The question of how to deal with the indians
is always one of difficulty. 1t should be met
honestly and with integrity in carrying out
our treaties with them. The God given golden

Certificates at Cincinnati.
C1Nc1NNAr1, May 3.-For some days the
crowd in waiting at the sub-treasury for
United States ten-dollar refunding certificates
has been immense. The approaches to the
Office have been filled by these applicants, and
the line of men and boys, especially the latter,
has extended some distance in the street.
Notwithstanding the order refusing banks the
privilege of purchasing them, they have man
aged to obtain large amount by proxy. One
man standing in the line acknowledged that he
had fifteen boys from factories whom he had
employed to procure the certificates. He had
by this means furnished one bank with several
thousand dollars worth. Another had sold
bank large amount at half per cent. premi-
um. The amount given out yesterday was
over S50,0O0. The aggregate sales amount to
$37OOOO.

mischief had been done. The weapon, a No.
Smith & Wesson six-shooter. had evidently
been carried in her pocket, cooked and primed.
Drawing it forth she fired an soon as the barrel
was level. It was all done in a fash. No
human foresight. except previous search of
her person, could have prevented the tragedy.
While the detective made spring for the re-
volver, and secured the woman, Mr.. Jussen
jumped to the side of his client, exclaiming
Mr.. Weber,
ARE YOU sHoT?"
The victim with remarkable calmness answered
''yes," and pointed to the lower part of his ab-
domen. Mr.. Jussen Immediately helped the
wounded man to his feet, assisted him into an
adjoining room, and then made him as COM
Portable as possible on a lounge, after which
he and others rushed out in search of q
surgeon.
The woman in the meantime paced up and
down the apartment, which had been the
scene of the tragedy, in state Of intense ex-
citement, exclaiming:
SHOT HIM BECAUSE he RUINED ME-
He refused to own his own son. He wanted
me to starve.'
As the excitement increased her teeth began
to chatter as if she were the victim of an
attack of ague. Her gestures became more
and more vehement, and finally she made a
rush for the, door, exclaiming:
Il want to see him before he dies. want to
say one word to him before he meets his child
in the other world
She was restrained by stout arms, and forced
back into the room. She now became literally
frantic in her speech and gestures, her face
took ON an ashen hue, her teeth became set,
her eyes protruded from their sockets, the FIN
gers of her hands intertwined in convulsive
cranp, and she sank back into chair
IN AN EPMEpT1C FIT.
A cup of cold water was dashed in her face, her
hands vigorously rubbed, and in the course of
few minutes she was measurably restored.
But her strength had forsaken her, she trembled
in every limb, and when in the course of half
| an hour she departed under official escort, it
was with difficulty that couple of stout police
men could sustain her on her feet.

CHEAP AND HYPOTHETICAL SYM
PATTY.

A number of our Republican exchanges
avow deep interest in the venerable Gen
eral Shields, and think the Democrats have
treated him shamefully- have insulted
him, in fact, by giving 40 days senator
ship, and Withholding from him, ana be-
slowing upon a rebel Colonel, a six years
seuatorship. OF course all expressions of
interest or Indignation from that quarter
are the sheerest hypocrisy. For many
years General Shields was in INDECENT cir
cumsiances. He was poor, almost pcnni-
less, when he knocked at the door Of the
Republican House OF congress for admission
as member, He had done most acccpta-
bic service in the Union army, and was one
Of the few Brigaders that left the service a
poor man. He came to congress from
Missouri, backed by a majority Of nearly

not fill the seat to which he had been so
triumphantly elected, nor be refunded the
money it had cost him to come to Washing.

the Republicans were never known to do,

Republican howl from one end of the
land to the other, that Democrats in
Congress had elected rebel Brigader
over veteran Union General! But here
Republican efforts to help the old man
ceased They offered him place which il
was not in their power to give, and they
knew very well when they nominated him
that Democrats would not, at Republican
bidding, abandon their caucus nominee.

A PRINCIPLE, was involved in the Hayes
Conkling contest over the New York nomi-
nations that rendered the fight of national
consequence Conkling assumed the right,
because Of his position as senator to name
the men who should fill the federal offices
of New York. He refused to consent to
Presidential interference, either in the
shape of suggestion or advice, claiming
exclusive jurisdiction over all matters of
that nature, even covering the right to
retain his appohtces during the term of his
individual pleasure. Of course we felt no
sympathy for the President as the head of
q Republican administration, for we knew
that he was impelled by resentment in try
ing to effect change in the New York
custom house, and not honestly endeavor-
ing to enforce his civil service reform policy.
In that view of the matter our sympathies
were for Conkling; but as contest to de-
eide the application or non-application of
the principle involved, our sympathies were
with the President; and the matter was de-
cided, in our opinion, precisely as it shoIll
have been decided.
