Aquatic.


After Wallace Ross had been beaten couple
of times by Warren Smith he built his father
very comfortable residence at Riverside, on
spot overlooking the historic race course on the
Kennebeccasis. For the past few days he has
been stopping there with his wife and taking
occasional spins ON the river. He no longer
suffers from sprained wrist and he is ready
for business. OF course he regards Hanlan's
latest announcement as peculiar freak, and
at the same time hopes that that oarsman is
sincere. AS Hanlan has expressed desire to
row, Ross intimates that, as champion of the
world, he is ready to meet anybody, and he is
not only willing to row Hanlan alone for $1,000
side, at any time and at any place that can be
mutually agreed upon, but he is also willing to
make sweepstake with Hanlan, Riley, Lse
and Courtney, and Hanlan and anybody who
comes along. As both men have now express
ed an eagerness to meet this summer the long
delayed Ross-Hanlan contest ought to be an
event of the near future. Speaking of Court
ney, Ross says that that oarsman is doing bet
ter work than ever before, and he seems TO re-
gard him as one of his most formidable future
antagonists for the championship. 1t is Ross
intention to remain in st. John until there is
good prospect of race, when of course he will
at once go into active training, probably else
where.

MR.. BLAINE.
On Garfields South American
Policy.
Mr., BLAINE DEFENDS HIMSELF.

CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-THE Weekly Magazine,
issued to-day contains paper by the Hon.
James G.. Blaine ON "The South American
Policy of the Garfield Administration, of
which the following , are the the salient salient
two principal objects in view-frst, to
bring about peace and prevent future
wars in North and South America; second, to
cultivate such friendly commercial relations
with all American countries as would lead to
a large increase in the export trade of the
which we are abundantly able TO compete with
the manufacturing nations of Europe. To at
tain the second object the first must be
accomplished Instead of friendly inter
vention here and there, patching up treaty
between the two countries to-day, securing
a truce between two others tomorrow, it was
apparent to the President more compr6hen-
sive plan should ba adopted if war was to cease
in the western hemisphere. 1t was evident
certain European powers had in the past been
interested in the promotion of strife between
the Standardization countries and might be
of the United States was wholly and always
on the side of peace with all their American
neighbors and peace between them all.
He then discusses the recall of the invi-
tations. He refers to the policy of, wise
men of previous years in favor of such
policy as Gen. Garfield favored. He de-
scribes the kindly and worthy traits of charac-
ter of the South American peoples, and says:
"The United States cannot play between ma
tions the part of dog in the mangcr. We
must perform the duty of humane interven-
tion ourselves, or give way to foreign Govern
ments that are willing to accept the responsi-
bility of the great trust and secure enhanced
influence and the numberless advantages re-
sulting from such philanthropic and benef-
cent course.
