Garfield,s Statue.

WASHINGTON, May 16.-The statue of
Garfield, contributed by, the state of Ohio
to statuary hall in the capitol, and which
arrived few days ago from Rome, has
been unlocked. 1t represents the martyred
president standing with his right hand
crossed against his breast and his left hand
resting upon dwarfed desk or lecturn COW
cred with books. The pedestal presents
more detail than is noticeable in other ped
estals in the hall, and a prominent feature
of it will be the bronze representations of
wreath and branches of palm. These will
be placed diagonally across the pedestal.
They have not yet arrived and letter from
Charles III. Nichaus, which accompanied
the statue, stated slight accident had oc-
Cured to the bronze wreath which would
delay it's shipment for few weeks.
The site for the statue in statuary hall
as selected by Architect Clark, is on
the southern side, directly in front
of the first column on the left
of the corridor as one proceeds to the house
of representatives. The face, which is said
to be an excellent likeness, will be toward
the senate. This is the most commanding
and prominent position in the hall. Archi-
tect Clark says in reference to the unveiling
ceremonies that it has been the invariable
custom heretofore to have the statue pre-
sented by one of the senators and one of the
representatives and accepted by some one
designed for the purpose. This affords an
opportunity for the eulogy of the person
hOnored by the statue.

THE HAWKEYE MARSHALSHIP.
why the President Has Withheld
Williams, Commission.

special 10 CQo GlODo.
WASHINGTON, May 16.-Last Wednes-
day the commission of Mr.. G. Williams as
marshal for the Southern district of Iowa
was sent to United States District Judge
Love. Just as the appointment was made
public the president received number of
dispatches from Iowa Democrats beg
ging him to suspend the commission
until they could have time to show
why he should not be appointed.
In addition the four Democratic congress
men from that state who had recommended
Mr.. Campbell objected strenuously to the
appointment of Mr.. Williams. On what
ground the objection is made to Mr..
Williams is not known to the president or
the attorney general. The main complaint
of the congressman was that Williams was
entirely unknown to them, and the dis
patches from Iowa were too long to go into
particulars. Whether Mr.. Williams is OBJ
jected to as an unfit person or merely
because the objectOrs prefer Campbell, is
not understood either at the White house or
the department of justice, but as the objec-
tiOns seemed to be numerous and included
all the Democratic congressman from the
state, the president deemed it to be courtesy
on his part to give them chance to state
their opposition to Williams. At his
direction, therefore, dispatch has been
sent to Judge Love, asking him to withhold
Williams commission until further orders.
In the meantime the people who do not
want Williams appointed will be afforded
the opportunity they ask for of showing
the grounds on which their objections are
based. If Williams can be shown to be an
Objectionable person the president will
indisputably revoke his appoint
ment, but if the objections be
merely another form of expressing prefer
ence for Campbell, it is not likely that
he will lose his place, for the president and
the attorney general had carefully consid-
cred Campbell and Williams before appoint
ing the latter. Williams is the only gentle
man thus far appointed who had two MEM
bers of the cabinet among his indorsers.

A Favor1te New Haven Comedian.

Billy Williams, the genial comedian who has gained so much popularity in New Ha- ven through his connection with the Ameri- can Theater, is now located in Bridgeport for the summer as the manager of Wagner's summer garden in that city, opening the sea son there last Monday night to a large pat ronage. Billy's numberless friends in this city will be glad to hear of his good fortune, and bespeak for him season of artistic and financial success. In speaking of the open ing night the Standard says:
 "The audiences are generally composed, in the main, of ladies. MT. Wagner, the pro- prietor, has made extended improvements in the place since last year. The palms, the floral border of the stage, the huge ferns forming hooks in various secluded spots, the electric lights, are all there; in addition the renovations of the stage are to be noticed. New sets of scenery have been painted by an artist from New Haven, who is adept in the work, and his lahors have beauti6ed the stage settings to 8 pronounced extent. One of the street scenes represents the front of the Union Hotel, and is perfect in it's way. More concerning the performance given will be said at future date. Billy Williams is the star of the whole troupe"
 The scenery spoken of was painted by Walter Blakeslee and Rene Thomas, of this city.

or The Yale Bicycle Tournament-
 An Exciting Days Srort-Hendee,s
 Great Effort The Ty9enty-Nffle
 Race =. New Haven Riders The
 ConvenIences For Spectators-Band,
 Etc.
 The second annual tournament of the Yale Bicycle club opens at 2;30 o'clock this after noon at Hamilton Park. No pains have been spared to give as attractive an enter tainn1ent as could be desired The pro gramme for the afternoon presents choice and varied selection of events. It includes the names of the most noted and speediest flyers, and the superb condition of the track offers every opportunity to effect meHor- able lowering of records.
 A bicycling contest, though no novelty to New Haven, may perhaps be allowed a few explanatory words. The races of to-day and tomorrow are contests of speed between amateur racers. The term ''amateur' in cy- cling conveys no idea of inferiority to the fprofessional"-far from it. The amateur racer is a gentleman who, out of proficiency and fondness for the sport, contests for 'sgloryh and prize, not for money, as does the professional. This fact explains to 8 great degree the fondness of the ladies for this class of racing. Owing to the character oI the contestants no jockeying is countenanced or even attempted. Races are struggles of dexterity, endurance and judgment; they ex- hibit speed almost equal to that of horses and excite the sympathy given to human ex- ertions.
 Hendee's exhibition mile against time will be the effort of his life. He is in magnif- cent form, and, with the fine condition of the track, has very promising prospect of beat ing the worlds record made by Sellers, of England, at Hartford last September. Hen dee is a New Haven lad and will make a ter r1ble and brilliant effort to restore the record to America and to New Haven. He should be handsomely supported in his plucky struggle At Springfield, May Both, Mir. Hendee reduced the one-haf mile record to 1:17 2-5, and is said to have done slightly better in 8 practice squirt at the track yester- day. Everything points to a wonderful per formance on his part
 Among flyers almost equally fast who have been at the Park for the last two or three af- ternoons are: Hunter, the phenomenal spurt- CT; Parsons, the crack racer of Springfield; Hamilton, known as the 'Yale meteor;" Hall, the noted indoor rider of New York. and Kavanaugh, of Cohoes. A number of local riders have also been completing their preliminary practising, among them Charles Moore, B. J. Smith and w. G. Redfeld, the boy flyer from Bradley street.
 The seats in the grand stand have been carpeted and all arrangements which could be devised have been made for the cof1ven- fence and entertainment of the spectators. The Second regiment band of this city has been secured and is to provide the music for the occasion.
