THE RECORD.
MISCELLANEOUS NOTES.

DAILY has been dishonorubIy dismissed by
the Baltimore club. The reason is not
stated, though there was suspicion of
crookedness in the game with Albany on the
10th inst.
Richmond, pitcher of the Worcesters, is of
the graduating class of Brown university,
and keeps up with his class by using all his
spare time in study.
"Syracuse" Mccormick has been engaged
as change pitcner for the Albanys.
Calvin haa returned from San Francisco
and Joined the Buffalos, for whom he
pitched last season.
Little Mack has been placsd first in the
batting order for the Nationals. The "tid-
bit'' is playing wonderful game this season,
seldom making an error, or failing to get in
good safe hits when they will do most good.
Ellick, of the old Red Caps, this city, is
playing left field for the reorganized Balti-
morcs. In the games we have seen report
ed, he is not credited with doing anything
with the stick, and only moderately we'll in
the field.

Of for Chicago.

The exod us for Chicago from the North
west still continues, and the two Eastern
trains last evening were moderately crowded
with pilgrims who journey to what they
fondly hope will prove Mecca to their
hopes, with slight sprinkling of those who
joined the throng with ample derire to be
in at the death of the Republican party.
Among the number the GLOBE noticed Hon.

Shermam's Workers.
Chicago Times, May 22, /

IOAASoesO 4AAiCo, u1o1 aS,J
If Sherman does not receive the nomi-
nation it will not be the fault of his sup
porters, or from lack of responsibility or
activity on the part of his fir lends. The
busiest place in the city is the Sherman
headquarters in the Grand Pacific hetel.
All day long it is thronged, and at least four
hundred men called there on yesterday to
lend the encouragement of their word.
Gov. Foster, ex-Gov. Dennison, Gen. Rob-
inson, Mr.. Nichol, and the rest of them are
at work everywhere and all the time, ham,
mering away on the Grant delegates,
strengthening the weak ones and building
up their cause. It is a fact that
during the whole of yesterday there was
more activity in the Sherman headquarters
than in those of Grant or Blaine, and the
circumstance was frequently the object of
remark. The increased attendance and the
crowd which is coming has made it neces-
sary to secure Esore extensive quarters, and
beginning with this morning, the Shermen
men will have rooms and 115 on the
second and third floor, and the appellate
courtroom on the first floor of the Grand
Pacific, ard the reception-roo on the First
regiment armory on jackson street. The
latter has been secured to accommodate IF
teen hundred men from Ohio, three hundred
from Milwaukee, and several hundred from
other parts of the country who are to arrive
to-day, tomorrow, and Monday, with bands
of music, flags, and great paraphernalia. It
is very noticeable about tie Sherman crowd
that the men appear we'll, and they are evil
IDENTIFY gentlemen OF culture and influence.

MUSIC MAD.

The Extraordinary Conduct of O. London
Beauty 5flicted With the Musical Crase.
Some queer developments are made about
the doings of Mrs. Georgina Weldon, a
London lady of beauty, wealth and musical
accomplishments. She aspired to be leader
in the walks of musical art, and cultivated
notoriety. She lived in style in her own
house in Tavistock square, and collected
about her q following of musicians and
other artists, and gave soirees and concerts,
in person. Ten years ago she made the &C.
quaintance of Gounod, and persuaded him
to quit his wife and Paris and come to Lon
don and live with her and her husband.
She admired Gounod and Gounod was fasci-
| mated with her. Their mutual affec-
| ton is described as only platonic, but il
made talk, and caused the composer to
| fritter away several of his best years, writing
trihes for her, and listening to her sing
them. At last Gounod broke away from
! the spell of enohantment and returned to
art. He left his manuscripts with Mrs.
Weldon, supposing that he could recover
them by sending for them, but she would
1 uOt give bAoA4 11o udu 10 E6WIlL6 I'll
opera from memory, and replace several
other compositions the same way, he having
sold thcm, and thus laid himself under the
necessity of reproducing them. A great
deal of trouble and annoyance arose from
his infatvation with Mrs. Weldon, but finally
he shook off the bonds, performed his con-
tracts and was free. Mrs. Weldon continu-
ed her peculiar musical career, and last year
engaged herself and choir to give promenade
concerts at Coyent Garden. The manager
soon dismissed her and her band, and she
has since devoted herself to retaliation. She
engaged private box, and conspicuously
went through the motions of leading the
performances. During the pauses she flung
into the audience thousands of handbills de-
failing her wrongs. Finally the manager
refused her admission to the theatre,
and she forced her way in, and was
promptly bounced out. She had the
doorkeeper arrested, and the magis-
trate discharged him. She then resorted to
postal cards, and sent them to the managers
friends, calling him thief and q convicted
bigamist. he prosecuted her for libel;
jury convicted her, and the judge sentenced
her to four months imprisonment. So Mrs.
Weldon has been temporarily removed from
her fine house in Tsvistock square to the
narrow confines of prison cell.

Charley Ford and Bonesetter.

If the owners stick, the much talked off
match between Chailie Ford, 2:204 and
Bonesetter, 2:19, for 81 900 side, best three
in five, will come off over the Chicago Jocky
club track, Saturday next. Neither horse
mas yet done anything this spring approach
ing his record, Ford being beaten at Cold
water, Michigan, week before last, by Elsie
Good, the time of the fastest heat being 2:28,
at the time the race was trotted, is consider
ed very good. Bonesetter has not appeared
in public race this spring, and his fastest
trial, according to the Tribune, is 2:2714.
He is to trot at Battle Greek. Michigan,
Wednesday of this week. Danton's Spirit of
Saturday says of the race:
TsThe Bonesetter-Ford race will come OFF
one week from to-day, and the race is as
much as conundrum now as il was the day
it was made. Neither horse thus far has
shown himself possessed of his former speed,
but it is whispered about that both parties
are Withholding their best efforts. However.
there are many who think the race will be
an immense affair, and that both horses will
be in the best possible condition on that
day. Of one thing we are morally certain;
that both owners will do their "level best" to
win. Mr.. Bemis is not only ambitious to be
in the foreground but cannot afford to be
in, or permit Job to be put up on his
race track. With these facts in view, there
must be contest, and those who come to
see the race will see one or we are greatly
mistaken"

WHITAKER.

Renewed Efforts to Shield the Seeking
Rascal.
WASHINGTON, May 30.-Prof. Green ar
rived from West Point to- day. OF the Whit
taker inquiry, and finding of the court he
says Whitaker has been prejudiced on sup
positions, assumptions, insinuations
and expert testimony, upon which,
according to military law, little
if any reliance should be placed.
He says the academy dexterously shifted the
responsibility by having Whitaker call for a
court of inquiry, instead of having it come
from the president. By doing 80 they placed
Whitaker alone in the position of accused,
while had the president ordered the
inquiry, the whole corps of cadets,
Whitaker included, would have been
placed on trial. Professor Green intends to
follow the case up with the secretary of war,
as he has already been assured by Secretary
Ramsey that an opportunity will be offered
him to chose the methods of procedure and
findings of the court.

4 Neto Temperance Measure.

A new law is now in force in Massachu-
setts, though the authorities of the largest
city, Boston, do not seem disposed to carry
it out, which may have an important bear
ing upon the temperance question. 1t for
bids the use of screens, curtains, or ground
glass in the windows of drinking saloons,
thus rendering the traffic as obvious to the
passer by as any other branch of retail busi-
ness. The measure has been bitterly op-
posed by the parties most interested, and in
various instances not without cause. Some
dealers claim that their business has fallen
off fifty per cent since the order was insti-
tuted. Others affirm the contrary, but it is
generally admitted that men are much less
disposed to hang around saloons than for
merly. They now take their drink and de-
part, instead of waiting to treat and be
treated.

The Trotttna Campalon.

The trotting campaign for 1880 COM
mences in good earnest Tuesday of this
week at Adrian and Battle Greek, Mich, the
meeting at Adrian being the first in the
Michigan grand central trotting circuit, and
that at Battle Creek the first of the grand
western circuit, both meetings continuing
four days. The grand central circuit en-
braces meetings at Adrian, Detroit, Pontiac,
Ionia, Grand Rapids, and at Fort Wayne,
with purses aggregating $4,000. The
classes are 800, 2:19, 225, Stake pacing for
which Matte Hunter, Rowdy Boy, Lucy and
Sleepy Tom will contest, 2:45, 2:26, 2:22 pa
GERS; 2:30 and free for all, for which only st.
Julien, the king of the turf, and
the little grey gelding Hopeful
have entered. The other classes have filled
we'll. especially, the slow classes, there being
twelve nominations in the 800 minute, in
cluding st. Cloud Maid, entered by A. Van
Loon, of st. Cloud, this Stite. Outside the
stake pacing race, that in the 2:19 class
should be the feature of the meeting, the
entries being Will Cody, Lucy, Charlis Ford,
Doty and Katie Middleton. These horses
were very evenly matched at the close of last
season, but as no one of them is probably
yet at his best, there will be an element of
uncertainty as to the winner, adding greatly
to the interest of the race. The entries to
the grand western circuit have not yet come
to hand, but all classes are stated to have fill
ed we'll.

Bad Breaks from the Third Term Forces
Among the Southern Democrats.

Especial Telegram to the Globe.
CoIoAao, May 81, 9 a. m.-The delega-
tions from the South are coming in rapidly
to-day. The members from Alabama
South Carolina, North Carolina and Georgis
arrived, and their appearance seems to place
an entirely new phase on affairs. Alabama's
twenty delegates had been considered solid
for Grant, but since the delegates got here ii
has leaked out tAat they are kicking vigorously
against the enforcement rule. Blaine and
Sherman appear to be the favorites with the
masses from this State. They say there
should be no enforcement of the
rule, and that there will not
be if they can prevent it, In
South Carolina, II of the delegates were
counted certain for Grant. They now stand
5 for Blaine, for Sherman and for Grant
Georgia was also considered GER
tain for Grant, but there would
appear to be not a single delegate
who will vote for him. They stand z for
Sherman and for Blaine. North Carolina
was deemed strong Grant State, the mana
gers figuring on II of the 20 delegates.
Tonight, they say they stand 16 for
Sherman and for Grant
on the fist ballot. AS matters now stand
Grant cannot get over 800 votes where it
was yesterday felt certain by his friends he
was sure of 407. That the
Grant men are weakening is
shown from the fact tha. to-day, they
made overtures to the Iowa delegates to bring
out Judge Miller for President, in order to
take the whole of that State from Blaine.
This the Iowaians stoutly refused to do.

Washbur,.,s alliance yFith Thieves.
louisville Courier Journal.

The record of depredations by timber
thieves raiding on government land shows
that within the past two years there has
been stolen 225, ,2O2,36S feet of timber,
2,279, ,539 railroad ties, 2O6,267 cords of
wood, 1886 cords of tan bark, 144,O5O
rails, 1,028, 1926 trees, 2s4.754 logs, $50 pieces
of square timber, IA, 900 bundles of shingles.
The greater portion of this stealing took
place in the North and West, but the admin
istration and its tools only see fit to howl
about the moonshine whisky in Southern
States, which is big theft compared with
the robberies we have cited. The Republican
Congressman Washbnrn, Of Minnesota, has
been for years in alliance with ring OF
timber thieves.

American Horses IN England.

Lorillard's American race horses in Eng
land did good work for their enterprising
owner, and for the credit of their country,
last week. To start in with the EPSON
Thursday, Iroquois, the two ycar-old son of
Leauington, out of Maggie B. b., by Austria
liam, showed his heels to the British repre-
sentatives appearing against him in fine
style. being four lengths in advance of Count
La Oranges Elixir, second. The betting was
two to one against Iroquois, and it is said
Lorillard's representatives landed good
round sum of English soYereigns by the
victory. The next day Parole came in Sec
ond to Fashion for the gold cup, while Paw
Paw, own sister to Parole, being by Lean
ington out of Maiden, was third for the
Acorn stakes for two-yeer-olds. In
reference to the race for the gold
cup, the telegraph says objection was made
against Fashion for foul riding, but over
ruled.'' Having nothing but the mere

. No Record at Matinees.

Secretary Vail, of the National associa-
tion, having been applied to by the superin-
tendent of the Chicago track, decides that
matinee performances are not recor:s or
bars. His letter is as follows:
"HARTFoRD, Conn, May 21.-D. L. Hall,
ESQ.,, Superintendent Chicago Jockey and
Trotting Club-Dear Sir: In previous
communication have answered the business
portion of your letter of the 10Th instant,
and herein reply to your question as to the
proper Interpretation of the rules on the
subject of records and bars.
You ask me in substance: 10 cass of an
exhibition of speed to which the public are
invited, and where judges and timers are
in the stand, but in which exhibition no
consideration whatever is pending, and no
money is taken at the gate, whether, under
such circumstances, the winning horse would
acquire record or incur bar. To this
reply that, according to the ruling of tbs
board of appeals they would not.
This answer involves q reply to your
further inquiry whether, in case of such ex-
hibition, the time should be suppressed, the
suppression would be an infraction of the
rule. OF course it would not.
T. j. VAIL"

statement as above, it is of course, impossi.
ble to say that the decision oyerruling the
protest was not right, but with the re.
callection of the ruling in Paroles case at
Liverpool, when he was cheated out of q
fairly won race, it would not be proof of the
possession of particularly unchristian
spirit, to think that had Parole been first
and Fashion second, and the objection of
foul lodged against Parole, the ruling would
have also been reversed. Perhaps this sus-
picion is unjust, but if it is, the Englishmen
have no one to thank bat themselves. Dis
honesty at one time will lead to a suspicion
of dishonesty, whenever similar occasion
for IFS practice arises, and the Fashion
Parole race was the situation. The foul al
lowed, Parole won. The foul allowed at Liver
pool, Parole lost. 1t was allowed at Liver
pool, and disallowed at Epson. The effect
was the same in both cases, Parole lost.

The Free German Cities.
LPall Mall Gazette.

A very fair idea ef the issues involved in
Prince Bismaack's latest raid upon the Ger
man free ports may be gathered from an
inquiry into the relative prosperity of those
places which are still enjoying the advan-
tsges of free trade and those which are in
cluded IN the German zollyerein. Taking
Bremen for an example, it will be found
that, whereas in that contented little
place the prices for foreign products
rule at pretty much the same rate as they do
in England, the Inhabitants of Odenburg,
scarcely half an hour distant, are almost
strangers to the advantage of enjoying arti-
cles not produced in Germany at anything
approaching reasonable price. Cotton
goods, sugar, tea and coffee are there
charged at nearly three times the amount
asked for them in the free town; such
fruits as raisins, figs and almonds-the lat
ter very important ingredient in many a
German confection-are almost too dear foc
common people to purchase; while tobacco,
almost a necessary to the Teuton, is qua
drupled in value directly it enters the Gus
toms union. AS a result, the inhabitants of
Oldenburg are almost uniformly poor, while
their brethren of Bremen are rich. Opera
tic performances and other expensive de-
lights, unknown in the frst-named place,
are common in the latter. The unhappy
people who have the misfortune to be
under imperial taxation regard their more
lucky Deighbors with the profoundest envy,
and sorIofully compare their superior lot
with their own. Very naturally, those who
boast the advantages, therefore, or living in
a free town are anxious that no step should
be taken toward depriving them of their
| good fortune.
