Three contests between professional pc
destrIans took place at Island Park, n. Y,
Noy. 5. The first, mile race, was won by
Smith in Am. 1885,, defeating Halpen and
ONeill. This was followed by one-hun-
dred-yard spin between brace of reputed
''ringers," known for the time being as
Jackson and Allen. The former won by
ten inches The hackers of Allen offered to
back him for another hundred" provided
he was allowed yard and half start. This
was agreed to, and an exciting race ended
in Allen winning by few inches.

New York, Nov. 15.-The annual
meeting of the National league OF base ball
clubs will be held in this city on Wednes-
day next, when the new salary rule adopted
at the October meeting will be reconsid-
cred. The real sufferers by the new rule
are the members of the New York club,
and it is said that the clubs high-priced
players will refuse to play at a reduced sal
ary Before leaving for New Orleans one
of these players said: ''There is in exist
ence an agreement among some OF the
New York players pledging themselves not
to engage for another season for ~, 600,
the maximum salary under the new rule.
Seven players have signed it," "Chicago has
great team" President Day OF the New
Y DIRK club to-day, but has had most OF its
men tor years and it does not pay any
where near such salaries as we do. AS
consequence it has engaged its whole team
for next season, whereas our men, who have
been getting more than the new rule allows,
have refused to even talk to u.s." All the
directors of the New York club have been
working hard since the new rule was made,
and think they can control enough votes at
the meeting to do away with it. President
Byrne of the Brooklyn club was asked his
opinion as to whether any of the American
association clubs would make application
for membership in the league. He said:
1.-The Brooklyns will not enter the league,
and it would be foolish for any of the
American association clubs to desert their
own association for the league, inasmuch
as the American association clubs are now
located in eight good paying cities. and in
addition to this, all the American associa-
ton clubs have promised faithfully to stick
by their association for another year." Mr..
Byrne is of the opinion, however, that
Providence, st. Louis and Buffalo will drop
out of the league. but just what cities will
be admitted in their places he cannot say.

Never before has there been such cut
ting and recruiting of cycling records as
during the past four weeks. At the
Sringfeld tournament the records We're
brought down to such low figure that it
seemed impossible they could be further re-
duced for at least another year. yet to-day
there is not standing single record made
during that tournament All of these new
figures have been made in trials against
time, and, and although they may not be
quite as creditable as those made in a con-
test under the present rules of the L. A.
W., there is no reason for their re-
fusal. A certain sporting paper has
announced that it will accept
records made against time only as
secondary to those made in a contest AS
this paper has never refused to accept the
times made by Maud S and other horses,
there seems little reason for refusing to ac-
cept bicycle records made in like manner.
W. A. Rowe, of Lynn, holds worlds rec
ords from quarter mile to twenty miles,
with the exception of the three-quarters
mile and mile and in these he holds anna
teur records. The three quarters mile
worlds record is held by Fred Wood, and
the mile worlds record by Howell. Wood
side holds professional records from four to
twenty miles, and American professional
records to fifty miles. All the records were
made on the Hampden park track, SPRING
field, Mass.

PORTLAND, Me-, Nov. 15.-There has
been considerable speculation through the
state recently regarding the attitude OF the
Maine senators towards President Cleve-
lands appointments, especially concerning
their views about some of the new federal
officeholders in this vicinity. Senator Frye
was in the city yesterday, and in converse
ton with gentleman of his acquaintance
he fully expressed his views as to the course
to be pursued. He said, in substance, that
the appointments ought to be considered by
Republican members in precisely the same
way as if they had been made by Repub-
lican president; that if the appointee is a
man Of good character and qualified for the
place he should be confirmed without refer
ence to political questions and that if there is
opposition to the confirmation in any case
the burden of proof should be on those who
make the objection. OF course he did not
speak of individual cases, but from what
he said it may be fairly assumed that he
will vote for the confirmation OF nearly all,
if not all, of the main appointments.
Certainly Gen Anderson. whose appoint
ment is Endorsed by his predecessor and ap-
parently by Republicans generally, ought
to be all right under the senator's ruling.
Senator Hale agrees with his colleague in
this position. A personal friend. who re-
Gently had long talk on political matters
with the senator. quotes him as saying that
he believes in making no factlous opposl-
ton to President Cleveland and his appoint
ments. He said that he regarded the pres
ident's course thus far as very satisfactory,
from a Republican standpoint, that he was
doing about as well as he could.
BLAINE OUT OF POLITICS.
A gentleman whose political knowledge
has always proved reliable says: ~ on
may depend upon it. that Mr.. Blaine is out
of politics and will remain so unless some
thing unexpected occurs. / can't give you
my authority, but | have absolute knoWl-
edge that he considered his nomination last
year a mistake and that he consented to
make the fight only because his friends had
so far committed themselves and that to
refuse would put them in an embarrassing
position. have not believed this until re-
Gently, but l know that MI. Blaine has said
just that. There is good deal OF quiet
talk among politicians of both parties over
mysterious feud between two OF the
Maine senators and Congressman Tom
Reed. who has gone to Washington to work
up his boom for the Republican speakership
nomination. Mr.. Reed is not at present
acquainted with either Mr.. Hale or Mr..
Frye. The latter gentleman is reported as
saying recently that Mr.. Reed had not
spoken to him for two or three years and
that, to save his life, he could not tell the
raa son whv

ONE of the most graceful movements that
has yet been inaugurated is the one pro-
jected by some eX-Confederates in Louisville
to build monument to Gen. GRANT, to be
erected by contributions from Southern sol
diers. Such a monument will rob large
number of politicians of their campaign stuff,
but it will be most gratifying evidence that
the war is over and that its results have been
accepted in good faith by the S outhern people.

TT DEPENDS.

To the Editor of the Globe.
If person is employed to pick apples at
81 for every barrel, and he picks ten barrels,
would he get 81 or $40.
READER OF THE GLOBE.
That may depend on the man he is work
ing for. And it may also depend on the
wording of the contract. If he agrees to
pick every barrel of ten barrels for 81, he
would only get 81. If he was to receive 81
for every barrel he picked he would get $40.
The safer way would be to frame his con-
tract so that he would receive 81 for each
barrel.

The great vice of American politics to-day
is lack of faith in the people The aristo-
cratic spirit-the shoddy, underbred, heart
less, petifogging aristocracy of the Could
Vanderbilt stripe-has come to dominate the
Republican party and it's leaders. The same
element is trying to capture the Democratic
organization, and the only way they can do it
is by fomenting infidelity and disunion They
have received smart backset in New York,
and we trust that similar one Is awaiting
them in Tennessee.

To Help the Cause.

During the past week all those interested
in sports in the city have been devising
plans to assist in making the ice carnival at
st. Paul popular, and by the time things
are running in fine shape many clubs will be
formed to give exhibitions Of curling, Ia
crosse and other games which are prin-
cipally played on ice. Much interest is
manifested at present in the organization of
a toboggan club, and also a snowshoe club.
These clubs, if formed, will greatly add to
the popularity Of the carnival. One gen
tleman few days ago remarked:
The St. Paul ice carnival will be failure
unless toboggan clubs are formed. spent
some time at Montreal the past two winters,
and the popularity of the carnival there could
be chiefly attributed to the ladies, who turned
out en- masse and Joined in all the sports; and
they were experts at steering sled down
hill. Now unless the ladies lend some assist
ance and go in for general good time, an ice
carnival might as well never have been
thought of.
Robert c. Wight Of ST. Paul has been
making every effort he possibly could to
organize snOwshoe and toboggan club, and
his efforts promise success as many have
signitied their intention of joining him.

Rowing men were rather startled by the
announcement made a few days ago that
Neil Matterson had offered to row Beach
for 81, 900 side and the championship of

quite correct The present holder of the
title however, has not responded to the
offer with that cordially that might have
been expected from one who little over a
year ago was himself an aspirant to the
title. He alleges that it is not worth his
while to go into training for so little money,
but declares his willingness to row Matter
son tor 50, 500 a side. The friends of Mat
terson, as represented by Aid. j. d. Young.
have set their faces against it, SO far as to
refuse to accede to the champions unrea-

little chance of the men coming to terms.
