 tipathy to the students was in danger of be- ing revived, and spoke of what such Demo- crats as Joseph E. Sheffield and ex-Governor English had done for Yale. The act of tear ing down the flag was a deliberate insult and affront to the club and the flag. With diffi- culty retaliatory acts were restrained Satur- day night. Members of the club did not want to accept pay for the flag, as it would wear look of indorsing the offense. We want the remnants of the flag.
 One of the college committeeman arose and repeated their position in the case, and expressed readiness to endeavor to get all the pieces together if possible and restore them In this view the others concurred. The club committee then accepted the reso- lutions and the meeting was adjourned. The JefFersonian club meeting last evening was devoted to 8 general talk over the out rage. As it was not regularly called meet ing it was decided to have special meeting Thursday evening, when the whole subject would come up. However, two com rnittees were appointed, one to pay a visit to the Police Commissioners and complain that the police might have been more efficient on Saturday night, the feeling prevailing that arrests ought to have been made member said that instead of arresting students coming out of the building l the police seemed to consider it their business to give them free passage for escape. The other committee was appointed to consider what ought to be done generally. The feel 1 ing prevailing seemed to be to let no guilty man escape, while all commended the action of the meeting at the college.

The FlagitiOus Act.

The Students and the Democratic Banner
 Manly Condemnation of the Act-YaIe
 SPeaks-The Meeting of the Undergrads. s.
 The students meeting to express condem-
 nation of the outrage perpetrated on Satur- day evening, in hauling in and tearing to pieces the Jeffersonian clubs banner, was held according to programme yesterday morning in the old lecture room of Presi- dent Porter at half-past o'clock. The col lege year had opened with striking event, one to be sure not creditable in character to those who committed the depreciation, and all was commotion in the dormitories and on the campus. Judging from the interest displayed in some of the railways, it seemed day big with the fate of Rome Wild geese were re- ported flying southward, and this was an event associated by the seers on the campus with Rome's downfall. Any claiming gift gifts, would have quickly met with eager re- quests to put their knowledge to it's trumps, to name the guilty parties. Did man appear among the Sophomores of the Society of Sigma Fps with an air perturbed, fustered, jaded, wild, or generally of his base. rumor at once assigned to him compicity in the flag business. Men there were on the cam pus who looked knowing, wise as owls, big with wisdom, as much as to say am the pos sessor of the great secret, but this was for a short time only. They hauled down the sig nals and soon repented of assuming such role, as they saw before them the fate of men who had been ehinned to death, and hastened to ignore all knowledge of the af- fair. The whereabouts of certain pieces of the flag were hinted at sU6 rosa, and leading junior and senior, retieent and grave, walked about or privately discussed the situation. But throughout the college Yale's honor was the uppermost thought.
 President Porter announced the meeting in college yesterday morning President Porter's condemnation of the act was, of course, a certainty. He was waited upon yesterday morning by the Jeffersonian club committee appointed for the purpose, viz: Ex-Msyor LkWis, ex-Mayor Sperry, William

The Dedicaf ion-A Notable Occasion.
 The rebuilt Germania Hall was dedicated last night in a fine manner under the auspices of the German English School Society. There was large attendance, which included many prominent citizens The appearance of the premises with the improvements were uni versally commended, and the terpsichorean part of the exercises was highly enjoyed. The floor presented gay and beautiful scene with many attractive toilets adding to the interest. The music was by Wheeler and Wilson's orchestra, and gave much pleasure. MT. Flaherty prompted. The stage room of the new hall is much increased over the old by judicious arrangement. The lower hall or refreshment room, remains substantially the same. The main hall is handsomely frescoed. The scenic work was done very finely. The artist was Mir. Smith, of this city, who has done scenic work at the New Haven Opera House. The frescoing was done by Mir. Schenck The lighting of the hall is brilliantly done by means of two ele- gant prismatic refectors, and side lights on walls add to the effect The hall was much admired by the happy throng last night and the guests The floor committee were Otto Alberti, manager, George E. Beck, Fred. Ketterer, John R. Ruff, Hermann Possner.
 Messrs. John Ruff, l.. Weekesser, and A. Krauss did the honors as reception commit tee and the following (who are the building committee) were the committee of arrange ments John Ruff, L. Weckesser.

REPUBLICAN BULLDOZERS.


No cline 10 the author of the threatening

GRAFT few days ago, has as yet been us
covered. but that he Is Republican, and
very foolish man, is evident. We are not
disposed to follow the example oil journal
lists of Republican proclivitles, who, when
some negro desperate Is politely asked TO
vacate the neighborhood in one OF the
southern states, even though the request be
signed by persons of both parties, at once
hurl denunciations at the entire Democratic
party, and declare that the party's MAORI
ties in all the southern states is manufac-
tured in Just such manner. we Will not
follow their example, even though TINS De
only one of the numerous means employed
by the Republican leaders in this district
TO hold the colored vote. We will not
charge the entire party with participation
and sympathy in these acts, Tor we
know that thousands of Republican
voters are honest men who denounce such
outraees from wherever they may come,and
who would not accept a success at the polls
bought at such sacrifice OF honor and hon
esty on the part of their party. We de-
uounce this act as we would any similar
one perpetrated in the south or any where
else by Democratic leaders in the interest
of their party. We look at it as we would
have every reader look at it-irom the
stand point of one who believes that the
success of our system of government de-
pends upon the honesty and intelligence
of the voters and the purity and FREEDOM
OF THE BALLOT. We might point to a
great number of attempts to force the COL
ored men of this district, by means not SO
fagrantly disreputable as this, to vote the
straight Republican ticket; we could call
attention to the party hatred which has
manifested itself in various parts OF the
state, and broken out on the Republican
side, in acts of VIOLENCE, such as cutting
down Democratic flag poles, ostracising
Democrats for their political sentiments
ETC., and we could even point to several
murders, committed by Infatuated Repub'
licans, simply because their Democratic vic.
tins dared to give expression to theil
sentiments, and we could come nearer home
to our own county-and reltterate
with may exclamation and interrogation

HANCOCK.

The campaign has now reached such
point. that all the facts concerning the CHAR
acter and an.ecedents Of the candidates are
prettv well known. The scrutiny OF the
past lives and publicly avowed opinions Of
Gen. Hancock and Mr.. Garfield, has result
ca altogether in favor Of the former. There
has not been left single spot, in the hsto-
nv or character Of our modern Chevalier
Bayard, whereon the most expert OF mud
throwing party could cause particle OF dirt
to stick. Gen. Hancock is soldier, but
his foes have found him generous victor
HIS contreres, without exception, give him
credit for personal courage OF the
highest type und sagacity which emlnently
fitted him for independent command, and
made him the trusted mentor OF his supe-
riors. His subordnates have not in their
ranks one who can, or does, say aught OF
him that would indicate the martinez.
In his history, he is equally fortunate.
No public Or private scandal clings to his
skirts. The attempt to connect him with
the quasi.judcial murder of Mrs. Surrat,
only served to fix more firmly upon the Re.
publican party, an act which should and
will render it infamous Ridicule was
evoked no sneer at his letter of accept
ance, as being OF the Columbian ora
tor style, but its general truths written
in clear and resonant style, from the
basis upon which the structure of our in
situations can alone safely rest.
The mares nest, which they presumed
held an egg of treason in the Sherman
letter, only yielded honor and credit to the
general. 1t left no longer doubt tina
Hancock was patriot as well as a soldier
