a Fight DstwsOn Lssdom and ThompSon
fur the ONCE of SsrssGnt-At.Arms.
WASHINGTON, Sspt. While Speaker
Carlisle and one or two officers of the last
House of Representatives will, from the
present appearances, have walk.over for
a re election at the opening OF the coming
session of Congress, there is developing
against certain cfileials decided opposi-
ton. Just now there is understood to be
strife for the office OF Sergeant alarms.
Some Democratic members do not like
Leedom, the present incumbent, and they
will endeayor to defeat his reelection.
The opposition took its rise Immediately
after i.eedom's election, two years ago.
His principal competitor at that time was
John u. Thompson.
1t was generally understood that the
Office should be given to the man the
Ohio dele2ation might name, and at the
caucus OF Ohio Democratic members the
vote was quite evenly divided. Leedom,
however, having the majority in his favor,
he was named in the party caucus as the
choice OF the Ohio delegation, aud duly
elected as the caucus nominee. His prin-
cipal backer waa representative LaFevre,
though Leedom, who had been q member
OF the previous Congress, had many
friends in the other delegations. LeFsvre
had brother whom he wanted Laedom
to appoint as Deputy Sergeant. at Arms,
and Lsedom might have gratitlsd the Wish
OF his friend had it not been for an out
spoken demand from number Of the
Ohio Democrats that Ike Hill should be
given ths place. Letdom did not consider
Hill TO be the man he wanted, but finding
the odds against him he appointed Hill,
as it were, uEd n protest.
But at the game time he made LeFevre
his bitterest enemy. LeFevre enlisted
John Mclean and the Cincinnati Enquirer
against Laedom, a1d through the influence
OF that paper is trying to kill him of. The
latter is now on the Pacirc coast acting
as ex-ofIicio busineEs manager OF Holman's 3
iunketing committee, but will be heard
from soon after his arrival. 1t is not
thought by his friends that the opposition
to him is ss strong as LeFeyre would have
everybody believe.

durinr the rreat xorla,s tair Of tha. year

during the great worlds fair OF that year
open 10 yachts from all nations. The race
in which the America carried off the cup
was sailed on August -, there being
eighteen entries. The America won by
twenty minutes ahead Of the best Of the
other vessels, the Aurora. The cup thus
won became the property OF the New
York Yacht Club in July 1857, the
Americas owners having transferred
it to the club. In 1870 an at
tempt was made to recover the cup.
The race came oil on August Sth OF that
year between the English yacht Cambria,
owned by James Ashbury and q fleet oil
American yachts. The Cambria came in
third in the race, the Magic first and the
America second. In 1871 another trial
was made by Mr.. Ashbury who seemed
to be determined to gst back the cup. In
this contest the American yachts Colum-
bia and Sappho won five out OF eight races
arranged for. Twice more in 1876 and in
1881 American yachtmen had 70 defend
the cup. The contestants caMe from Can

cans.

H. Brown, the inventor Of the magnetic,
electric telephone and telegraph, has re.
turned from New York, and reports great
success. He perfected his patents two
weeks ago, and aEer having the instru.
ments examined by the electricians of Jay
Gould and Bonanza" Mackay, made a test
over 800 miles OF wire, which was most
satisfactory. Among those who were pres
ent st the tas. were Gen, Dodge aud Nor
gan Jones, President OF the Fort Worth
and Denver, J J. Lately and Austin Cor
bin, OF New York, who with associates
formed a company and purchased the
right to the United States for $1,000, 600,
paving $3.50 COO cash and securing the
S75O,000. Mr. Mackay is negotiating for
Canada. which is held at Sl,0OO,0O0.
Metsrs. Geo. Frankel and Geo. Shutler, OF
this city, why own the right TO England,
leave soon to look after their interests.
MIR. Brown will be back in New York
next week, where instruments for cable
test are being made. 1t is the intention
to ground ths cable and make the test
over $500 miles OF cable. A test over
eighty miles Of Brooks cable has been
made, and the voice Transmitted perfectly.
It was the intention TO keep the matter
secret until Mr.. Brown made his cable
test, but as a New York reporter has been
permitted 10 be present at several private
tests, and has been in training by an in
ventor OF an article on the subject to ap-
pear after the cable test, it is proper to
print the news now. Mr.. Brown has sold
out here and gone to New York.
Poles arc now being put up on Long
Island for one hundred miles OF wire, over
which q number OF tests with perfect in
struments are to be- made. As soon as it
was known by the Bell Telephone com.
pany and the Western Union Telegraph
company that the invention was a success
an endeavor was made by them to obtain
8 patent on the method, but Mr.. Brown
had secured this patent also. Corbin and
his company propose to go to work at once
organizing companies in the different
states and operating exchanges.
