A Very Peculiar Action on the part Of
the Champion.
TORONTO, September IA rumor having
been current in Aquatic circles that Han
Ian intended retiring from boat-racing al
together, press representative crossed
over to the Island this afternoon and in
teryiewed the champion Of tho world,
"Isit true, Mr. IIanlan," asked the re-
porter, "that you intend accepting no more
challenges, ind are the rumon about you
trueY
'gThey are true, every word, and l have
pulled my last race, " replied the champion.
III have been studying over then matter, and
have come TO tho conclusion that l will
never give or aCCept another challenge, and
never will pull another race, The fact Of
the matter Is / can't attend to my hotel
business and pull boat races. One or the
other had 10 be sacrificed, and have de-
termined to sacrifice boat racing, [ can 90
no higher, and have resolved to quit the
business. OF course some people will call
me q coward, hut | don't think that my
record shows that l have ever shown the
white feather, at any rate have pulled my
last race"
"WhO becomes champion now?"
"0h, they can fight 1t out among them.
Selves
"Do you intend TO pull in Any race in to.
'morrow's regatta2"
~ do not and shall take no part In 1t.
The TACT OF the matter Is ! am entirely ont
Of condition and unfit to row. II entered
omoHow ! should in all probability be
beaten, and the people would say II then
retired was afraid"
"WhOse chance doyou consider best in
the regatta Tomorrow
u think TrlCkett has Just as good n
chance as any one else. He 10 rowing in
fine form and | should not be bit sur.
prised to see him come in first"
On the veranda OF the hotel some OF the
oarsmen were talking together Ebout the
RICO, and from their conversation the re.
porter learned that both Charles Courtney
and Trlckett are astonishing the others by
tho work they are doing. This morning
Ross and Courtney had a fine squirt to.
getheT, the latter creeping up and passing
the former, Hosmer, Teneyck and Riley
were out-the Inter with a wind.sail on
tho bow Of his hoat. AT present Trickett,
Gandaur and Courtney are the fayorites,
though Wallace Ross las plenty Of hackers.
There are rlmnrs OF combination be-
tween certain oarsmen to pool the
prizes, but the re,eree has Just informed
your reporter that i he sees anything OF
the sort he will hold an investigation, and
Il the matter be brought home he will re-
fuse to award the prizes, ,.. ...,.,
The Regatta Committee arc intensely in.
dignant at Hanlan, and their only hope OF
o good race now lies in Trickett and Gau.
daur forcing the other men to the utmost.
Hanlan never give word Of warning, but
sprung the matter on tho committee.

Squire philips inflicted,

AS will be noticed by the return of the
Grand Jury, true indictment was found
against Squire Philips, the charge being that
of failing and refusing to pay over fine col
IeCted by him asJustice Of the Peace,
To say that Philips was mad would be put
ting the matter lightly He claimed that the
entire matter was an outrage, lie first took
the reporters to Clerk Quarters room, where
they we're shown seven orders In Philips ia.
VOF on the General School Fund aggregating
$Si so; these orders were properly signed by
both clerk and President, There was another
order that had not been signed for 81 80,
After that Philips said

the Sheriff. but only day or two agO went
over the figures with him and he knows to u

ity In tho HhprtFs office lrO one or two
ClAims ahead Of mine, and II turn my fines

Several parties testified that SadlCr was
not sober aud from his conversation at the

In connection with this It might be stated
