 The Great Race-Practice Pulls Of the
 Oarsmen.
 WASHINGTON, May 14-There was percep- tible increase of spectators to-day ts witness the practice pulls of Hanlan, Courtney and Riley, and quite noticeable influx of sporting men into the city during the day and evening. The spell of cold weather has continued to-day to the great satisfaction of the oarsmen, who were out twice, except Courtney. He took slight cold yesterday and omitted his customary forenoon pull to- day on account of indisposition. He was out in the afternoon, however, and appeared to pull as well as ever. Quite little sensation was created during the afternoon practice by a short but sharp spurt between Hanlan and Riley, in which neither gained any noticeable advantage. Most of the practicing was con- fined to the upper mile of the course, the stiff breeze making the long lower stretch too rough for pleasant shell rowing. Hanlan tried his new paper shell o-day and expressed himself well pleased with it. Oourtney's new boat also arrived today and seems to give sat- isfaction. Referee Blaikie arrived late last night to stay until after the race, and to day went over the course with surveyors and ex- amined the flags which have been placed to IL -1,k I, @e- IT shall be no boat saving or trickery of any sort if he can prevent it. and that he means to have a fair race if possible. What little betting there is is in favor of Hanlan.

CHICAGO, May 1.-The Evening Journal, which is running the wnshburne boom in the West, referring to the dispatch saying that Washburne has refused to be 8 candidate, says: ''The Journal has so often and so ex- plicitly stated Washburne's position in refer ence to the Presidential candidacy, namely, that he does not aspire to the nomination, being in favor of Grant, that it needed no an nouncement from the coast of Maine to en- tighten the public on the subject. The Port land interview contains nothing new to the supporters of Washburne, and they will con tinue to push the movement for his nomina- ton all the same. Again and once for all we declare that while perfectly aware that MT.

Washburne is himself adverse to his candi- dacy because Grant is in the field, he is never theless, and will continue to be, the candidate of those who propose to make him President if they possibly can. They are in right down earnest about the matter and cannot be de- tered from their purpose by the daily repeti- burne is not candidate.

During the last few days he partly admitted his guilt. He said Atlc1f was good for nothing and his death 8 matter of no regret among his neighbors.

When led to the sher- ifs cfice, where services were to be held, he was pinioned, and he tauntinaly commented on the minister's prayer: ''You don't know tha Holy Spirit, you steer!" When asked where he wished to be buried. he replied: 'sIe makes no difference to me. He showed no signs of fear at the scaffold, and died withou: a struggla.
