The End Of Courtney.


Mr.. Courtney, the oarsman, who is always
prevented from rowing races by unavoidable
accidents, recently told Hanlan that the lat
ter was responsible for the saving of Mr..
Courtney's boats the night before the race
which the two-the real osrsman and the pre-
tended oarsman-were to have rowed at
Chautauqua Lake. A formal explanation Of
this mysterious accusation has just been
made. 1t appears, according to the Courtney
account of the matter, that Hanlan and
Courtney had made an agreement, by the
terms of which they we're to row three races;
that the first Of these races was to be won by
third presumably by "the best man" In ac-
cordance with this agreement Hanlan won the
race at Lachine, and Courtney should have
won the race at Chautauqua, but at the last
moment Hanlan repudiated the agreement
and told Courtney that il the latter wanted to
win he would have TO win fairly. In these
circumstances Courtney, solely with the view
of protecting his friends who had bet upon
him, sawed his boats, for which act he now
remarks that Hanlan was really responsible.
Admitting this story to be true, 1t shows
that Courtney was pafty to an agreement to
swindle the public-a fact which renders any
thing that he may say utterly unworthy OF be-
LIEF, and that he was so certain that Hanlan
would beat him in fair race that he did not
daresto meet him. This not only fully justi-
fes the general opinion that Courtney dare not
row against Hanlan, but it proves that Court
pey is unfit TO be admitted to any regatta in
which honest men are TO row. As to that part
of the story which asserts that Hanlan made a
dishonest bargains with Courtney, it will find
few believers, for the reason that Hanlan's su-
periority as an oarsman is SO complete that he
has no need to win q race unfairly, and that
during his whole professional career he has
never been suspected of selling or buying a
race. Let US hope that the statement now
made in defense of Courtney will be an end of
that persons professional career. 1t seems inn
posi- bic that any decent man will hereafter
consent to enter a regatta with HMM. Y.

THE STRIKE.
No Cutting of Wires Reported
Yesterday.
More Strikers Return to Work.

NEW YORK, Aug. 9.---The Western Union
Company reported this morning that there had
been no wire cutting last night There was no
truth IN the statement that the company was
losing $4,000 o day in consequence of the
strike. The Western Union was fully capable
of handling its own business without resorting
to the wires of any company. The strikers are
still confident Of success and exhibit no in
dication Of weakenness. They insist that the
railroad operators in the west are all out not
withstanding statements to the contrary.
CINCINNATI. Aug. Superintendent Miller
OF the Western Union reports that three of the
iifRt class striking operators notified him to-
night that they would return TO work to-mor-
row. This makes nine accessions here from
the strikers.
SCRANTON, Pa, Aug. CA large force Of
telegraph builders reported for duty this after
noon to r. O'Brion, superintendent OF the
Western Union az Scranton, to resume their
work on his division, which was interrupted by
the strike.
CHARLESTON, S. c., Aug. 9.-The tele-
eraphers strike in this city was ended to-day,
All the operators resumed work without con-
ditions as 10 salary. The Charleston office has
now precisely the same force as before the
strike began. Five substitutes who are tenn
porarily employed here have been provided
with places elsewhere by the company.

side influences win be exerted, il necessary,
to bring about that result. Inquiries ON this
subject lead to the conclusion that Judge
Hoadly is in training as a candidate for the
Presidential nomination, necessary qualifoa-
ton for which is his election as Governor. A
prominent Mary land Democrat said a day or
two ago that If Hoadly could be elected Gov
ernor Of OHIO, the Democrats would have
'plain sailing for 1884, but If Hoadly should
be defeated he did not know what they would
do for candidate. His information was that
Mr.. Tilden had no thought of being candi-
date for the nomination, but is extremely anx-
ions that Hoadly should be the choice OF the
Democratic convention; that in private con-
versations with leading Democratic politicians
Mr.. Tilden has warmly espoused Judge Hoad-
ly's cause and argued that he would be the
strongest candidate the Democrats could put
in tho field. Judge Hoadly was one of Mr..
Tildens counsel before the Electoral Commits
sion. There really appears to be good reason
to believe that the Democratic candidate for
Governor Of Ohio Is Mr.. Tilden's candidate for
Presidency, and that the expected "outsids
influences" in favor Of Judge Hoadly in the
present campaign are to come from New
York

H,oeni Opsion in Georgia.

ATLANTA, Ga. Aug. 8.-For several years
the Legislature Of Georgia has been engaged
In passing special local liquor laws, prohibl-
ting the sale OF liquor within certain distances
OF schools and churches. Latterly several
counties have applied for the same privileges,
until now cut OF 1888 counties 30 are prohibition
counties. The liquor men soon began to real.
izs what the tactics Of the temperance polite
ians were. Eearly ia the present session, Mr..
Humber, Of Putnam. introduced a
general local option bill. under which any
county which desired to do so could vote on
the question without the tedious delay Of ne
tihoning the Legislature. This bill was met
by the liquor men as prohibition bill in dis
guise, and the strength OF that interest was
brought ont. The Women's Christian Tenn
perance Union entered the lobby. The cues
tion was called on yesterday for action Tha
lobbes were packed with interested spectators
Eghty-eight is the number OF votes REQUIRED
to pass bill of this character, and while the
LIQUOR men conceded o bare majority 10 the
temperance party they felt confident the nee
essary number could not be reached. AS the
vote proceeded anxious counts were kent on
both sides. When the last name was called
there were So votes for the bill and As against
IT, three short OF a constitutional majority
Presently Mr. Ford changed TO yes; then Mr.
Dufree voted yes. This carried the bill to 81.
Only one more vote was needed. Mr.. Hansell
at the desk was running his pencil down the
list, and was about to hand the result to the
Speaker. 1t was already known all over the
floor that the bill was one vote shot. The ad-
vocates of the measure looked all oyer the floor
for another recruit and searched the corridors
in vain for some absentee whose vote would
scarry them through. 1t seemed that tho bul
was lost, when an incident occurred to rescue
IT, During the call Mr.. julian announced
that he was paired with Mr. Griffin, but that
he would vote for the bill II Griffin was pres
ent. At the most anxious moment Mr.. Julian
rose aud said he desired his vote recorded
yes Mr.. Gary, of Riehmoud asked il a
member whos was paired could vote. The
Speaker said it was purely o question for the
gentlemen and the House could not interfere
Mr.. johnson, of Baldwin, In an animated man
ner, said: Mr.. Speaker: IL is true that the
rules of the House do not prohibit the record
ing Of a vote under such circumstances, but
IL SCENE to me that in snch case there is a
moral obligation which could not disregard .
There was pause for moment and the the
Speaker declared the final vots-yeas SS, nays
40. Though rules strictly forbidding applause
had just been read, there was burst of enthu-
siasm tho floor and in the galleries.
The bill which now goes TO the Senate and
iH almost certain to become n law, provides
that upon the petition Of certain number of
citizens in any county or district nav vote mn
on the question. but another election cannot
be held within II months. The effect of this
bill will be to make Georgia prohibition State
within II months barring the five city coun-
les.

Fisher, who is young man, invited Miss But
Ter and a Miss Bryant, each about Is years old,
to sail with him. Soon after getting under

of the cabin, in the lee of the sail, to light a
cigar, whereupon Miss Butler playfully fol-
lowed him and made motion as il to ex-
tinguish the match which the young man had
lighted. At this moment a puff of wind
struck the sail, and the boom swung around
with such force as TO sweep both the young
people into the water They sank, but rose

have been an expert swimmer, clasping Miss
Butler about the waist. He made two or
three desperate clutches at the boat, but the
slippery sides baffied his efforts, and a moment
later he sank. The young lady was bnoyed up
by her clothing and remained afoat. At
