The Irex ana Ge.esta Rase.

CowEs, Aug. 15.-Both the Irex and the Genesta when crossing the starting line car ried mainsail, gaf topsails and jibs. The Irex reports that after crossing the needles the wind frightened until the vessels were be- calmed for an hour. The breeze then fresh ened and when the Irex reached the middle of the channel she was six miles ahead. From this point the Genesta was lost sight of. The Irex sighted Cherbourg breakwater at ? o'clock this morning, passed inside and came out by the east pass at o'clock. After leaving the breakwater brisk south west wind sprang up and the return trip was made in quick time. The Genesta arrived at oclack this afternoon.

Speeches were made de- manding universal suffrage and amnesty for the men who participated in the riots last March and these demands furnished texts for the numerous banners displayed.

GRAND ARMY MATTERS.

The Financial Success of the Great Picnic-A Telegram from the Califor- mia DelesatIon-They Bathe in tho
 Waters ofthe Pacific-To be Rendered
 A Reception on their Return.
 The meeting of Admiral Foote post on Saturday evening was largely attended not withstanding the excessive warm wea ther. The principal attraction, no doubt, was the interest of the comrades in the report of the picnic committee regarding the profits of that enterprise. The committee reported that the net proceeds of the picnic were S1, ,46O. 58 Of this amount the committee recommended that s1 ,OOO be placed to the credit of the Post Benefit fund and the bal ance to the general post fund to pay the run ming expenses Of the post, and the recom- mendation of the committee was adopted. By this action the post is placed Tn position to care for the present needs of it's sick and disabled comrades and secure for them @ re- spectacle burial when the tolls and cares of this life are over. The post appreciates the kind assistance rendered to the committee by the general public in bringing the picnic to a successful issue by their generous dona- tions of valuable articles, which enabled them to carry forward the enterprise of re- plenishing their rapidly depicting treasury with so much success.
 The post appointed a committee consisting of Senior Vice and Acting Commander J. N. Coe, Junior Vice Commander Lewis B. Brown and Officer of the Day Edward E. Tisdale to arrange for the reception of the California delegation their arrival home. It is expected that the delegation will reach this city the last of this week and as soon as a telegram is received announcing the time of their probable arrival Acting Commander Coe will warn the post through the daily newspapers to meet at headquarters to re- ceive them. The ladies of the Auxiliary corps will also participate in the reception, as some of their number are among the dele gates.
 After the post adjourned on Saturday evening Acting Commander Coe received telegraphic dispatch from Commander Fox of the California delegation, and dated at San Diego, Cal, August IA, which read as follows: "We bathing in the waters of the Pacific and revelling in fruits and flow CTS. All we'll" The delegation are return ing by the Southern Pacific route and ex- pected to stop over one day in San Diego
 The San Francisco papers are filled with glowing accounts of the reception rendered to the Grand Army veterans on their arrival on the Pacific coast. The "Call" of August Sd publishes twenty eight columns of closely printed matter re- garding the reception and the programme of the encampment. The head lines in the leading article read follows: "Encamped. The Veteran Host Occupies the City. Cap tors Made Captive. Heroes Enchained with Hospitalities Garlands. Hourly Addi- tions to the Host," etc., etc. From facts gathered from the San Francisco papers it is very evident that grand reception was ten dered to the veterans, and that their stay has been one continued round of pleasure that will never be forgotten.

Carrigan put detectives on the track and it was ascertain ed from the stable boys that white man had offered them $1 ,50O to so hocus the mare that Binette could win.

A BOOM IN JEWELRY.
Manufacturers at Providence Driven to
 Keep Up with their Orders.

PROVIDENCE, August 15.-The jewelry business of this city and vicinity, which has been very dull for the past five years, has this fall taken 8 sudden boom and at the present time the manufacturers arc driven to their utmost capacity; number of our prin- cipal concerns are working twelve and thir- teen hours daily and employing on an aver age one-third more help than at any time since 1881, scarf and lace pins in gold front and knife edge wire being the most staple articles, while collar buttons in sets of four are to be found on the market in infinite numbers. The greater business is being done in plated goods only, few firms carrying lines in gold, while silver jewelry, which had such an unprecedented run last fall, now can be disposed of at any price. Small half pearls and white stones, both plain and foil back, head the list in point of numbers of all other stones used, the amount being far above the imagination. That this boom has come to last is the opinion of many of the manufacturers, as their orders are being du- plicated as rapidly as shipped, while prices are steadier than heretofore, which tends to prompt the producer to create and maintain larger stock of finished work than it has been safe to attempt to do in past seasons on account of the great competition, which has been general, and the continual cutting of prices.

THE SPECIAL DELIVERY.
Directions To Postmasters Concernfl
 The Exfenaian of The 2EStar,n

Directions To Postmasters Concerning The Extension of The System. l WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-The Postmaster General has issued circulars of information to postmasters for their guidance in carrying
 out the recent law extending the special de- | livery system on and after October to all
 postoffces and to all mailable matter In his circular to postmasters at free delivery points he directs that all postofices which on the first of October, 1886, may be free delivery offices are hereby excepted from the operations of the order of August 10, 1886, relating to other than free delivery offices,
 so far as the same prescribes the methods of
 immediate delivery, and at all such free de-
 livery offices the special delivery system will
 be maintained through the employment of
 regular force of messengers as at present.
 At the free delivery offices the hours within
 which immediate delivery will be made are from 8. m. to Il p.
 m. unless in special cases otherwise ordered by the Postmaster General This requirement. as to the hours of delivery does not extend to the transactions of postal bus mess after the usual hours. Postmasters at free delivery offices not required to make free delivery of special delivery matter on Sunday. The law provides that the Post master General may contract for the imme- diate delivery of all articles from postoffices at any price less than eight cents per piece when he shall deem it expedient. Postmas- ters are, therefore, directed to forward any propositions which they receive from corpo- rations or other reputable parties for per forming the immediate delivery of mail matter.
 The circular addressed to all postmasters except at free delivery offices directs imme- diate delivery of mailable matter properly stamped to within one mile of the office, but the postmaster will be at liberty to make such delivery beyond the one mill limit and this is commended as proper thing to do as an accommodation to the sender whenever it is reasonably conyen- tent. The hours for immediate delivery at the small postofices shall be at least from 7 a.. m. to p. m. and till the arrival of the last mail if not later than 9 p. m. This re- quirement does not necessarily extend to the transaction of other postal business after the usual hours. Postmasters at free delivery and other smaller offices are not required to deliver letters on Sunday. At the smaller offices they will be at liberty to deliver them as we'll as parcels arriving on Sunday

ELAINE LOADING UP


For Charge on she State Departmen
 WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-The Post to-day publishes the following: "Mr. James G. Blaine is evidently arming for an assault up on the present administration, especially in regard to the conduct of the State depart ment. Within the past few days he has sent to the Capitol for large list of executive documents to Congress and the departments. This indicates that he is preparing for an az gressive campaign. He has complete list of pension vetoes, appropriation acts includ ing the river and harbor, documents relating to the tariff, the coinage, the conduct of the Treasury department in regard to reducing the surplus and other subjects upon which the Democratic party in Congress and the administration are not agreed, but his largest demand has been on documents relat- ing,'to the State department. He has obtain ed the correspondence concerning the fisher ies troubles with Canada and the imprison- ment of Cutting, copies of new treaties and old treaties with England and with other countries. He could net be supplied from the document room with printed copy of the new treaty with England relative to the extradition of dynamit- CTS, which is now subject of diplomatic relations, but he is no doubt armed from another source with reliable copy of that. The published version of that treaty has already angered the Irish news papers, and as MT. Blaine is known to have been in close consultation with MT. Patrick Ford of the Irish World it is to be expected that he intends to take advantage, among other things, of that indignation as an ef- fort to catch the Irish vote. Certainly he is preparing for a great effort and it is appar- ent that the department of State in it's for eign policy is to be the main point of at tack
