The Feeling N Tcastcn.

BOSTON, Mass, Sept, 16.-Although in
terest in the uriJan-Genesta contest had
not abated at all i'll this city, it did not man
ifest itself this morning by the usual crowds
about the bulletin boards until the an
nouncement Of the start. In a short time
after the start it was difficult to pass along
the sidewalks in front of the boards
and the crowd increased and
overfowed into the roadway. 1t was a
very subdued gathering. however, for bull
letin after bulletin showed the Englishman
in the lead, and when the time Of the run
to leeward was put hastily, calcula-
tionS were made, and the results
showing that the Puritan had been
outSailed, the prospect grew gloomier still.
The gloom frightened wonderfully when
it was stated the Puritan was picking up,
and the announcement in less than an
hour after turning the stake boat, that the
Puritan was leading. was the signal for
hearty round OF cheers. 1t seemed taken for
granted then that the white sloop would be
winner for q bulletin soon after
that showed she was mile ahead, raised
not even a murmur. Still there was a
CLEAN of hope for the cutters friends when
the end drew near and it was seen she was
doing work. Finally, when the victory was
bulletined, there was one grand shout, and
then the crowd dispersed rapidly. During
the evening, although the race was the
leading topic of conversation, no one could
be found who expected any other result, al
though it was admitted that the English
boat was a worthy competitor.

Jerry NsnFphy's Pet Project


WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-The friends of
the Hennepin canal are preparing for a new
and very vigorous campaign in the coming
session of congress. They expect to make
| the hardest fight for their pet project that
they have ever made. They have obtained
a resurvey Of the route. and believe they
will cut down the last survey one-fourth as
compared with former estimates.
1T is the only hope for our grain raisers,"
said Congressman Murphy Of Iowa, ''What
we want is competition to prevent exorbitant
rates by the railroads"
"But it is claimed that competition among
the railroads themselves will do this?''
''Yes, it is so claimed, but it does not do 1t.
They pool and put up the rates in spite of
competition, railroad commissions or any
thing else. Water competition is the only
thing that brings them to terms. can give
you an instance Of that. There is already q
canal from Chicago to LaSalle, ILL.,, and the
railroad rates on grain from LaSaie to Chi
cago are cent bushel. Go scarcely five
miles further west, where the influence
of the canal is not felt, and you
will find the rates trebled. With canal con-
Meeting the Mississippi with the great lakes,
we could save 10 cents bushel, and per-
haps 10 or 20 cents on our grain freights,
and that means good deal for the producer
1t means not only
GRAIN,
but it NAV mean q market as against no mar
ket should the present condition of affairs
continue. You seeSWe have got to begin to
put our wheat down in Europe at q very low
rate or else we shall lose that market. India
only began exporting wheat to England in
1872, and last year sent three
feurths as much to the markets Of
Great Britain as we did. With her cheap la
bor, she can lay wheat down in the markets of
Europe at very low figure, and we have got
to compete with her if we are going to have
Europe as market for our grain. So every
cut that we can save in our transportation
only adds to the price which the product OBJ
tains, but has very important bearing on
the question of obtaining a market against
the competition OF India. By putting $3.OoO,-
GEO or 81, ,0e0, 600 into the Hennepin canal this
government can not only solve the problem
of cheap transportation, but furnish. pork
for thousands Of people who are now suffer-
ing from want Of employment.

Signs of the Silver Lining.


WASHINGTON, Sept.-An interesting
feature, showing the apparent improvement
of business throughout the country, comes
to the surface here in the way of marked
decline in the number of aspirants for pub
lie office. Not only has the number of
aspirants fallen off very greatly, but even
among those who have applied for Office
in the past few months, there is dispo-
sition to exchange public for private serv-
ice. 1t is an uncommon thing to hear of
government employees resigning their
places to go into private business, while,
on the other hand, it frequently occurs
that persons who have passed satisfactory
civil service examinations are selected for
appointments as clerks Of the 81, 900 grade,
and upon being so notified decline the ap-
! apointment, stating that they prefer to re-
main in private employment. Only last
week two young gentlemen were notified
that appointments awaited them at the
postofice department.. and after several re-
quests fortune to consider the matter they
finally declined to enter the service. One
of these was gentleman who is connected

THE TURF.
Lively Times at Lexington.

LEXINGTON, KY, Sept. 16.-The weather
to-day could not have been better. The
track was good and the attendance large
First Race, purse $3.50 one and one-six-
teenth miles-Malaria led at the start, Lady
Wayward second. There was no change
to the back stretch when Lady Wayward
took the lead. She was not headed and
won easily by four lengths, Malaria second,
four lengths il front Of Slipalong. Time,
1:51I.
Second Race-The Stark stake, three
quarters of mile. O'Fallen, End Even
and Free Knight got even, the entire field
close up into close bunch. There was no
change to the head of the stretch, where
O'Fallen and Free Knight drew clear, and a
close race ensued to the eighth pole, where
O'Fallen drew away and won by two
lengths, Free Knight second, half length
in front of Sir Joseph, third. Time, 1:19
Third Race-Selling purse $3.50, one and
one-eighth mileS-Biddy Bowling led by
one length, Wo0dcock second, with Troll
lope and Latte w close together on the
quarter pole. Anna Woodcock went to the
front by one length, Biddy Bowling second,
and Vola third at the head of the stretch
Those three joined company and raced 50
close together to the end that after some
consideration the judges aeceded Biddy
owling thewinner, Vola second, and Anna
Woodcock third. Time, 1851. Pend
ing the decision, a most disgrace
ful riot occurred in front of
the judges stand, the central figures of
which were connected with the track.
Whisky was the leading spirit. The police
were fiafrantly inefficient, despite the many
demands of the presiding judge to remove
the Offenders. When they at last did so
they at once released them by order of a
leading official. The whole force then
turned their entire attention to arreSting
one negro who was unfortunate enough to
express his opinion.

Prohibitionists Want office.

BALTIMORE. Sept. 16.-For the first
time in Maryland, a state convention of the
prohibition party assembled here to-day,
and the delegation was larger than ex-
pected. They purpose to contend for the
state officers to be voted for at the Novem-
Der election. J. Hauk Turner of Talbot
had no opposition for the nomination for
controller, and the nomination of a candi-
date for clerk of the court of appeals was
left to the executive committee A city
convention will nominate candidates for
sheriff and register of wills, and district
and county committees, and candidates for
the general assembly. Resolutions against
the sale of alcoholic liquors in the state
were adopted.

OUTSIDERS DEFEATED.

The Classification Committee Adjourn to
Meet at Chicago and Consider
Arguments.
An Informal Session Held by the
Northwestern Traffic Asso-
citation Lines.
North Shore Road to be Transferred

Land Decision.
Classification Committee.


The classification committee was in ses-
sion all day at the Ryan, engaged in routine
matters. Changes in the classification Of
several articles were recommended, and in
doing this most of the time was consumed.
The rest was taken up in the discussion Of
carload rates to Western points from Chi
cago and st. Louis. Mr.. Kelly, representing
the Trades association of st. Louis, laid
his plans for an adjustment of matters be-
fore the committee, which will give them
consideration. The relative. positions of
Kansas City and Denver to ST. Louis and
st. Paul and Minneapolis to Chicago are
hardly the same, though not altogether
dissimilar. Kansas City is a short
distance out from st. Louis,
and the railroads, by giving to its
jobbers carload rates, and building its job
bing trade up to such an extent that ST.
Louis trade is in danger of being totally
cut off, which will leave it as dead as job
bing center as Cincinnati. Reports from
the inside showed considerable favor for
their abolition. Adjournment was taken
for supper, and the committee reconvened
at 1880, and adjourned at 10 o'clock without
reaching conclusion.
A special meeting will be held at Chicago
Oct. 6, when the matter will be settled.
OU. LOUIS dnu chicago u6lSSalSS receive
this conclusion with favor, as it shows that
their arguments have considerable weight
with the railroad companies, and that the
postponement of a definite decision shows
that the question is in better shape than it
has ever been presented for the abolish
ment of carload rates. This is the first
time that the question has been subject of
earnest and bitter discussion, and taking
this view, the interests seeking the
abolition of carload rates are
confident Of success. Railway men are, Of
course, friendly to Chicago and ST. Louis
| interests, and believe a postponement is
really in their interests as it will give them
an opportunity to treat the matter free
from the influence of the contending fac
tions. They have heretofore been seriously
hampered in their actions by mercantile
delegations waiting upon them in bodies,
| and express hope that none will attend a
| special meeting in Chicago, or none Of the
subsequent ones, believing that they are
entirely competent to treat the public justly

A Difference About HALLWAY GRAN,

WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-Some time last
spring, Commissioner Sparks made an order
restoring to the public domain several hun
dred thousand acres of land that had been
withdrawn to satisfy railroad grants at
point in Southern California, where the
Texas Pacific and Southern Pacific railroad
grants overlapped each other The com
missioner, in his order, regarded the land
as part of the lapsed Texas Pacific grant,
but the Southern Pacific company held that
they had complied with the terms of their
grant and constructed their road through
the land within the allotted time. and that
they are entitled to the tract This COM
pany noted an appeal from the commission
er's decision, and the secretary of the in
terror was occupied this morning in hear
ing arguments by the attorneys for the
riilroad company in support Of its claim.

From the Cleveland Leader.
The carriage containing the two ex-
presidents was just opposite the the
Twenty-third street entrance of the Fifth
Avenue hotel where they were four long
hours waiting for the procession to move.
Gen. Arthur. who usually eats light
breakfast, becoming hungry, called to the
carriage an attepdent who was standing in
the hotel door, and asked him to bring
couple of sandwiches. In a few minutes
the waiter appeared with tray, on which
he carried some sandwiches neatly covered
with napkin. In the center Of the tray,
however, was bottle of claret which stood
bolt upright in full view of the thousands
of people who thronged the sidewalks and
roadways near by. Gen. Arthur told the
waiter to take the claret back, saying to
Senator Manderson, of Nebraska, who was
leaning over the carriage door talking with
the distinguished occupants of the vehicle:

Hayes has undoubtedly a flask in his

national reputation than Mr.. Cleveland, have
tried the same thing and failed. Andy john

decision was made known at Southern

off claims, saying that Judge Brewers de-
cision declared all lands heretofore held by
the Missouri, Kansas & Texas railway to
be government land. They are building
