Courtney Swears That Hanian's
Friends Tried 10 Buy Him OF
with Great Bribes-HanIan Does
Not Get his Money.

ROCHESTER,, n. Y, Oct. 19.-Atiidav-
its are published here in "fhe Demo
icra: and Chronicle" by Courtney and
"Fr- nchy" Johnson. Courtney says
lie was repeatedly approached IN the
interest OF Hanlan by men who wanted
Courtney to give up tine race or lose it.
They offered first ''to cut the purse in
two;n then to give him 81, coo and hall
the pools, and then slo, 900 and half the
pools. These men said that they
wanted Hanlan to win the race as he
was to 20 to England to row there.
Courtney replied that there was not
money enough in America oget him
to lose the race. Courtney concludes :
went to Chautauqua Lake with the
determination TO win the race, and |
believe could hav. done it, had it not
been for outside interference. | have
only one thing TO reproach myself for,
that We did not exercise more diligence
in watching onr boats.
"Frenchy" johnson swears that
Courtney and Ward went down 10 the
boat house one day. He crept down
softly and listened to what they were
saying. The affidavit continues
The first thing l heard Ward say,
was; "If you don't consent to let
Haulan win, you can't pull him out
with log chain" And Charlie said,
II won't do it. There is not money
enough in America to buy me. | can
beat Hanlan and intend 10 do II"
Ward then said I: 81 know you can
beat him and he knows it, and he won't
ow unless you consent to let him win."
Charlie said again he would not doit, and
Ward said; Why, Charley, it is
Just like finding it. We can get $780,
600 in pools and We will guarantee to
divide 1t with you, dollar for dollar. 1t
is any odds on a sure thing. There is
no money in the Hanlan party. We
can take their bets without putting up
q cent. It's Just like finding 1.-THE
easiest thing in the world. "
Courtney said he wouldn't do it.
The City Bank has refused to pay to
Hanlan on Blaikie's order, because it
was not accompanied by the certificate
of deposit, which Mr.. Soule retained.
Bourtney and Hanlan have left for their
respective homes.

The National Campa,gn.

Mr.. Mckinney, the chairman of the
Onio Democratic committee, joins his
opinion with those who no longer re-
gard Mr.. Thurman as probab BILE presi.
dental candidate. He also says the
Ohio Democracy will be for Tilden next
year. Friends of Mr.. Pendleton say
that they consider he will be in the
field, however, and it is said sentiment
to this effect is now being worked up.
Considering that Mr.. Pendleton may
almost be styled the father of the
greenback idiocy, there would seem to
be no foundation for this idea. Mr..
PendletOp, it is understood, took very
little interest in the campaign just
closed. 1t is learned that Senator La
mar spoke at Vicksburg on the 10th.
lie favors Senator Bayard for the Dem
ocratic domination tor the Presidency,
and he deplores the Yazoo affair.

Amending an Ordinance.

Amending an Ordinance.
President Monaghan occupied the
chair at the regular stated meeting OF
the Board of Health last evening
After the reading OF the minutes the
Committee on Accounts reported favor
ably upon the bill OF Mr.. b. B. Frazer
for $500 for services as Secretary OF III,
Board and an order for that amount wa'
directed to be drawn.
The Second Ward COMMITTEES reported
that considerable amount OF mattel
had been collected in Stallcup Fun
sewer on Sscoud street between Walnut
and Poplar streets, and the stencil
arising from it was almost unb-srabie'
o!. Singley thought that the lrou-
4 !r arose from the fact that there had
been no rain lately, and the sewer
needed washing out. lie suggested
that if the plugs were allowed 20 run
th- matter could he remedied.
Considerable discussion ensued &s II
The condition of the sewer, the cause
of the difficulty, and to tine right OF the
Board to abate it, IN which several
members took part. Finally member
from the Second ward made motion
that the matter he declared nuisance,
This motion was adopted.
Col. Siugley made u motion that The
street Commissioner be instructed II
open the fire plugs at Fourth aud Pop
lar and Fifth and Poplar, so d. 10 l-l
I've water How into the sewer.
This motion was amended ''rbat the
Street Commissioner be instructed tC
abat- the nuisance within forty-eight
hours.
Mr.. Hayes explained the difficulty
by saying that the new sewer had brrn
graded about fifteen inches lower than
the cid one, and where it connected
with the old one in Second street there
was of course an Offset OF fifteen inches
and here the refuse lodged.
Colonel singley, oorroborated the
explanation made by Mr.. Hayes and
thought that good volume of water
let into the sewer would wash this re-
fuse over the obstruction. He Therefore
moved that the Street Commissioner be
instructed to open the fire plugs at
Fourth and Poplar and also at Fifth
and Poplar streets aud allow the
water to flow down the sewer.
This was amended that the street
Commissioner be officially notified 10
have the nuisance abated within forty
ty.eight hours, and adopted.
Mr.. Lannan said that as the city So
liciior had informed the Board that
there as some doubt as to the powers
OF the Board to act beyond the City
limits, lie offered the following resolu-
ton, and asked that the Boaro adopt it
and send it to Council:
