COMING REGATTA At PITTSBURGH
Ross and His ChaIlengers-Fistiana Talk
Races at Toledo, Brighton Beach and
Naragansett-LouisViIle's Pro-
posed Carnival.
.SDecinI 10 The Re1tster.

PITTSBURGH, September 14.-All the prep
arations for the coming regatta are nearly
completed and its success is fully assured.
Hosmer has already arrived and gone into
training, and others of the noted oarsmen
who are to participate will be here soon.
Courtney hiss written to well-known
sporting man of Pittsburgh that he will be
here and row without failure. Mr.. Price,
the manager, has secured ex.Mayor Lid
dell, Walter Beaumont and Capt. Thomas
Reese, as referee and judges. ArrsRse-
ments have been made with the railroads
entering the city for excursion rates from
Cleveland, Buffalo, Columbus, Cincinnati,
Wheeling, Youngstown, and all towns in
Western Pennsylvania, Eastern Ohio aud
West Virginia. The tickets will be issued
direct to Hutton course, and are to be good
on both the Allegheny Valley and West
Pennsylvania railroads, whose lines run
parallel with the river on either side. 1t is
the intention to put up a grand stand at
the starting buoy capable OF seating 5000
people, and other seats will be provided
if found necessary. 1t Is proposed to put
up in front of the grand stand large flag
staff with different colored flags to corre'
spond with the colors of the different crews
AMI osrsmen, and at this point telegraph
office will be located, having connection
with the buoys Of the respective scullers,
and as they pass these points their posi-
ions in the race will be telegraphed to the
office at the grand stand and by the at.
tendants there displayed from the flagstaff
by means Of the colored Asgs. The colors
of each rev and the singlescullers will
be printed and distributed before each race
It is thought that by this method the spec
ators at the starting buoy will be kept ac-
curately informed as to the relative posi-
lions OF the crews or individual oarsmen
throughout the races.

Jeremfe,

NEw YoRK, September A.-According to
official advices from Hsyti the towns of
Csynet and MArigot, which fell with Jac-
mei into the hands of the insurgents, have
been retaken by the Government forces
The insurgents at Jacmel are closely sur
rounded. Commune Cotes have been
given over by the insurgents to pillage,
The population invoked the Government t
aid, and the bombardment of Miriganns
completely silenced the fire of the insur-
gents. The city to-day is like the Necropo-
lis. At Jeremie the insurgents were so
harrassed by the incessant fire of the Gov
eminent troops that in desperation they
threw themselves on Fort soloman and
took possession of it, but it was immedi-
ately retaken by the Seventeenth Regi-
ment at the point Of the bayonet, and re-
mains in possession of the Government.
The movement at Fort Iiberte ended in
the fight Of its jnstigator.

Mercer Pa. Miners UuruIy.

MERCER, September l4.-Considerable bit
terness of feeling has been engendered
among the striking miners at Pardoe by
the action Of the companies in obtaining a
force OF miners from Pittsburgh to work
their mines. This morning the striking
miners gathered in force and hooted and
threatened the new men with personal vic.
lence. The old miners became so excited
that riot was expected 10 take place; but
the police succeeded in holding them at
bay. In the meantime the sheriff was tele.
grsphed for and the police force was in
creased sufficient 10 protect the men. 1t
was reported this morning that the miners
at Hazard had offered TO go to work, but
the general manager said this evening that
tie situation was still unchanged.
