A well-Earned Race.

New YORK, Sept. 23.-The English cut
ter Genesta to-day won the BrentonS Reef
challenge cup by beating the American
schooner Dauntless in a 300-mile race, from
Sandy Hook light ship to Brenton's reef
light ship and return. The time was 4S
hours. minutes and seconds. The out
ward rnn was entirely uneventfuI, with
light winds, the GeneSta literally running
away from its American competitor, which
was mere speck on the horizon Tuesday
morning. The race was started at 5 o'clock
Monday evening. There was heavy rain
on the way up the coast. The Genesta
rounded Brenton'S reef light ship,
having accomplished half the journey,
at $3.50 Tuesday night and started on her
return in heavy fog at 11:30. When
twenty miles on her homeward journey the
Dauntless was sighted and was therefore
meantime sprung up and the Dauntless had
lost the head of her main topsail. About
midnight veritable cyclone set in. One
after another she had to take in sail. At
$50 in the morning she stood about on the
starboard tack, midway between Montauk
point and Shinnecock lighthouse. The sea
was running high and the greater part of
the time the cutter was all under water
save her Weather-quarter, to which the
crew clung every time she shipped wave.
Sir Richard Sutton and his guests pru-
IDENTIFY remained below, and the crew ap-
peared to be almost worn out with cold and
fatigue. At 11:4O at Fire island light the
seas were apparently rolling mountains
high. The cutter took in her stay sail at IL
o'clock and reefed it. The gale had in
creased in severity so much that one of the
Genesta's crew was flung to the deck and
was knocked unconscious. He remained
in this condition some hours. Another
sailor was washed partly overheard, but
caught in time to save his life. He
escaped with broken ankle. Another had
his head cut open by being struck with an
iron ring, and still another had one of his
fingers broken. At 2:3O the Genesta close
reefed and an hour later almost opposite
Long Beach, still plunged frightfully. At
4:45 she was abreast of Rockaway hotel
and then headed for Sandy Hook Iightship,
which she rounded at 5:19-40. Her actual
time was 4S:07-05. Her official time was
4S:12-40. The Dauntless was not seen
after she was discovered OFF Block island,
and it is supposed she gave up the race and
entered Newport in consequence of the
storm which is raging. The Genesta
was admirably handled throughout the
race and has proved her virtues in a heavy
sea.

Detroit played with all its old-time demor-
alization and the Philadelphias had little

Chicago Wins Easily.

CHICAGO, Sept. 23.-The Providence
club put Hallstrom, local pitcher known
as ''the Swedish WONDER" in the box to-
day, but the home team gauged his delivery
and batted very hard, taking the game with
ease. The Grays, otherwise, played a
strong game, but the contest lacked interest.

Close Game at st. Eouis,

ST. Louis, Sept. 23.-To-day's st.
Louis-Boston game was the direct opposite
of yesterdays exhibition. Instead of a
batting contest it was pitched battle, and
instead of being loose, the fielding was very
sharp and clean on both sides. Only two
singles were made by the visitors off Healy.
Buffinton was in fine form and besides
holding the home players to five hits, struck
out nine of them. None of the runs scored
by either side were earned. The home team
secured the winning run in the fourth when
Serey reached third on Cummings wild
throw to first after missing his strike and
scored while Nash was retiring Quinn at

Investigating Ward and Warner.

SpScldl 10 lne
NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-Ferdinard Ward
smiled with grim satisfaction yesterday
when. before Referee Cole in the case of
Assignee Hall against Warner, the counsel
for the latter refused to cross-examine the
chief Of swindlers. Immediately the whis-
per went around the court room that
Warner did not dare have Ward interrogated
closely. Further hearing in the matter was
postponed until Wednesday of next week.
Lawyers interested in pushing claims
against Ward directly and against Warner
indirectly, are using every possible effort
to set aside for many months
the criminal prosecution against
Ward on ten Indictments because
Ward declares he will give no direct testi-
mony in the civil cases, nor will he submit
TO cross examination in the Warner case
unless assured of a stay in all criminal pro-
ceedingS. Ward cannot be compelled to
testify. The most that the court could do
in the event Of his refusal would be to send
him to the Ludlow street jail for contempt,
and that would be useless, because he is
nov held there. Ward is expected to GRIM
mate Warner in all the frauds, and thus
make it possible for the creditors to compel
Warner to disgorge $4,000, 600 which he
drew out of the firm in profits. Wards
criminal case is set for Oct. II next. and
there is ample evidence to convict on all the
indictments and send him to Sing Sing for
life.

Choosing Between the Parties.

Special TO the Globe.
RICHMOND, Va, Sept. 23-It is stated
upon what is deemed good authority that
the convention of colored men to assemble
in Lynchburg on Sept. 80 will indorse the
Democratic state ticket out and out. 1t is
claimed that this body will be composed of
at least 500 delegates. The call under
which it assemblies precludes those who
were delegates in Mahones recent state
convention from participating in
this convention. The delegates have
been chosen i'll such manner it is
said as to prevent Malone from gaining any
influence over them if he so desired Here
tofore the colored politicians in this state
who have antagonized that senators have
cOntented themselves by putting up a
straight out Republican ticket. Those now
engaged in this movement believe the time
has come when colored voters may boldly
choose between the great parties of the
country. 1t is not believed even by the
Democrats that the Lynchburg convention
will succeed in gaining them many colored
votes

whisky Extension Developments.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-The announce
ment made several days ago that Gen. Car
man had authorized a suit against the Ken
lucky and Ohio distlllers for $40, 900 as pay
for services i'll getting the bonded extension
order has created a good deal of stir in gov
ernment circles here. Indications are that
when suit comes on for trial there will be
some very interesting developments. Car
man is one of the shrewdest and most sue
cessful operators here. He appears as at
tOrney, sometimes in person and sometimes
through others, but is generally successful
in what he undertakes. The sum for
which he has sued, $4,000, is but a
very small fraction of that originally
promised in case the extension was had
The sum which it was alleged the distillers
were willing to pay for such an order was
originally put, it is said, at $4,000. Car
mans agreement with the distillers, it is
alleged, was made after John Thompson
and Phil had tried in vain to get the extern
sion themselves. They had been to the
secretary and the treasurer and the commits
sioner of internal revenue, but found them
opposed to it, and the secretary after
looking over the situation, had positively
refused to make the order. 1t was then
that Carman was appealed to. He had
large New York acquaintance and large
acquaintance in Washington and knew lust
what men had
MOST INFLUENCE AT HEADQUARTERS,
so he posted off to New York, and laying
the matter before an eX-revenue official of
that city, who had strong influence with the
president and other high officials, and en-
listed him in the service. This ex-offcial
came here, put up at a prominent hotel,
visited the president and before a week had
passed over had convinced him that svch an
order would not only be proper from legal
standpoint. but mercy to the large hnan-
cial interests that were likely to suffer
greatly unless some action of this kind
of the task was comparatively
easy. A hypothetical case was put before
the department of justice and an opinion
obtained that such an order might be legally
issued. Meantime the whisky trade was
getting very anxious. On the 9th of jan
uary a large quantity of whisky, the taXes
on which would be million or two of dol
lars, must come out of bond unless the order
could be had. Every eye was on Thompson
and the mysterious influences which were
helping him, for Carman did not come ia
the surface at all in the transaction.
Thompson vibrated between the treasury,
the capitol and White house, and the mys-
terious influence with him. When there
was no more than twenty-four hours left
before the millions of gallons must come
out of bond word went to the treasury that
such an order ought to be made. That
settled it, and before night of the last day
the order was given and signed. 1t is not
claimed that any of the money paid or
agreed to be paid for obtaining this extern
or 1u in
fluencing any officials. The influence
seemed to have come through outside
parties.

President Cleveland to Investigate.
Special to the Globe.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 23.-The president,
after considering the representations of the
civil service reformers of New York, has
determined to make thorough investiga-
ton of the removal of Chief w. Bacon of
the New York custom house and the ap-
pointment of George Fl. Sterling in his
place. Yesterday afternoon Droman B.
Eaton of the civil service commission was
at the White house for more than an hour.
He had just returned from New York after
carefully investigating this case, and told
the president all that he had learned about
it. AS result the president directed Sec
retary Manning to order the suspension Of
Sterling pending an investigation, which
the president himself will make. he will
probably ask Collector Hedden for an ex-
PLANTATION as a first step. If the charges
made against Sterling be proved he will be
promptly removed and Collector Hedden
will be held to strict accountability.
