SUNDAY AT DEER PARK.
How the cIeveiands and Lannon'S
Spent the Day.

DEER PARK, Md, June 6.-President
Cleveland and his bride spent the day quiet
ly. Secretary Lamont and wife arrived on
an early train from Washington, and were
driven at once to the cottage, where they
will remain during their stay. Breakfast
was taken shortly after 9 o'clock, and about
one hour later the party started for Oakland,
six miles away. The party consisted Of the
President and Mrs. Cleveland, Secretary and
Mrs. Lamont, ex-senator and Mrs. Davis
and two children, and John W. Davis,
President Garrett's assistant.
The village of Oakland was alive with
people. The pretty little Garrett Memorial
Church was the ceutre of attraction. The
chancel was decorated with flowers and an
extra large choir was in attendance. At IL
O'Clock the Presidential party entered. As
they were seated the choir sang "Flee as a
Bird to Yon Mountain" The sermon was
The President and party were the first to
leave the church after the benediction. They
at once entered their carriages and we're driy-
en- to the cottage of Senator Davis, where
they dined. Mrs. Cleveland wore a hand
some black silk dress trimmed with beads, a
beaded cape, straw colored bonnet and black
gloves. She look strikingly handsome
After lunch the President and his wife
walked over to the next cottage, which is oc-
cupied by Major N. S. Hill. He introduced
Mrs. Cleveland to Mrs. Hill, and after being
Joined by Colonel and Mrs. Lamont, the en-
tire party walked through the fields back of
the cottages, and spent over an hour gather
ing wild flowers, with which the ladies filed
their arms. The President thanked Major
Hill for the courtesies extended by the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad.
1t is understood that the President and
Colonel Lamont will make an expedition in
search of trout tomorrow, and that Colonel
Lamont will return to Washington by Tues
day morning. The date of the Presidents
return has not yet been announced.

Admission to college.
, the Editor of the Preas.

To the Editor of the Press:
The PRESS has published the report of the
committee of arbitration to pronounce upon
the eligibility of Mr.. A. #. Soule of Bow
coin College to membership in the Maine
State intercollegiate base ball league. L
have no interest in the matter in so far as it
relates to the question before this committee,
but l am interested in this matter
in so far as it relates to the
standard of admission to our Maine
colleges. In these easy-going times it
is difficult to maintain the high standard of
other days. There has been not little COM
plant that in some Of our colleges the stand
ara has been lowered merely for the sake of
added members. So far as | am aware. this
charge has not been brought against Bow
doin. But now comes the new president OF
this venerable college and testites before
the committee of arbitration that there is
a man in the college who never applied Tor
admission, but that application was made
for him by the manager of the Bowdoin base
ball nine; that he entered college about a
week after the opening of the spring term;
that he was admitted to college without any
examination; that his name is not on any
roll-call, and that nevertheless, he, the presi--
dent, regarded him as property member Of
the college. The man himself testified that
he had not attended school for four years
before his admission to Bowdoln. Prof.
Smith testified that the man had been in the
history class twice during the term, but had
never recited. He had not been ranked, and
his name was not on the roll-eall. Prof. Lee
testified the man had been in the physiology
class from four to six times, and had recited
once.
President Hyde evidently regarded this
statement of facts as somewhat humiliating,
but the faculty, he said, could not interfere.
1t seems TO me that the facts warranted in
che highest degree the interference of the
faculty. If one man can enter Bowdoin in
this way, and be regarded by the president
as properly a member of the college, why
not others? OF what use then, are stand
ards of admission? And why should not
the members of the college-as understand
has been the case within the past few weeks
visit preparatory schools with (which
Bowdoin has no relations, and urge the men
who propose to enter college in the autumn
to go to Bowdoin on the ground that admis-
sion to the college is easy, and one can have
a good time after he enters?
The contrast between the action of Bow
doin and that of the Maine State College in
a similar case is noteworthy. 0xley, for
merly of the Portlands, applied in the spring
for admission to the State College, for the
purpose of taking a place on the college
nine, but President Fernald declined to ad-
nit him. Has then, the State College a
standard higher than that of Bowdoin? So
it seems. b.

a Cruise in Which the Mayflower is
DjStanced.

BosToN, June 6.--The schooner yacht Gil
tana, the sloop Mayfower and the cutter
Huron remained in Marblehead harbor all
last night and this forenoon started for the
second days trial. The three yachts, after
sailing about the outer buoy for four hours,
came about on the port tack X z: and St stood to the
southward. They kept on this tack when the
sheets were started, and they ran home un-
der good leading breeze. The Mayfower
had her working topsail, two headsails and
mainsail. but did not sail far be-
fore the jb topsail was run up,
The Gitana had her foresail, mainsail, bal
loon clubsail, fore topsail, ,Staysall, Jlb, fy-
took the lead and quickly left the Maytlower
and Huron astern, and at the same time the
big white sloop was dropping the Huron.
The Gitana went along at a good pace. and
after an hours sailing she had q lead over
Mayf1oWer of good mile: When about
eight miles from Boston Light the cutter
Stranger was sighted. She hove to, waiting
after She crossed the Mayfiowers
bow bow. and with started sheets filled
away, and having a position petWeen
the MayfIOwer and Huron. The white
sloep was too much for her, so her skipper
turned his attention to the cutter Huron. Al II
was pretty race between them, anu Ine
contest was close one. But tne Stratn@sel, YET
miles, fell out and made for the Beverly
shore. The Stranger did well, however, anu
she more than held her own with the huron.
This evening the Mayflower came up TO tne
city, and anchored just astern of the Puritan
at City Point The Huron sailed to her
moorings on Dorchester bay, and the Gltana
came to anchor off Thompson Island. Tues

Discovery of the United States Grand
Jury at Seattle.

SEATTLE, w. t., June 6.-The United
States grand jury has found indictments
against ten leaders of the recent anti-C Chinese
riots in this city The jurys report, which
was submitted yesterday, is an extraordinary
document 1t alleges that evidence has been
laid before the grand jury sufficient to con-
vince them that there exists throughout the
country reasonable organization known as
the 'sRed American International Working
mems Association This order is described
at great length. Among other things the
report says: ''This association, with all its
branches, is essentially Anarchist in theory
and practice. The main articles of its creed
are treason, robbery, murder. Its proclaimed
purpose is the overthrow Of our government
and the erection on its ruins of a so-called
Socialist commonwealth. The policy pur-
sued by the association is to secure control Of
all labor organizations, and particularly of
the Knights of Labor to see to it that the
officers of all labor organizations are chosen
from Scientific Socialists; to employ every
means to produce discomfort among
the people: to stir up on occasions
and at all times as much strife
and agitation as possible for the subversion
of the government Last fall branches of
this organization were established at Seattle,
Tacoma, Olympia and other points on Puget
Sound. The agitation of the Chinese ques-
tion was to be made at once pretext and
cover for the reasonable operations of the
band of scientific Socialists, The labor or
ganizations, were, although unknown to the
main body of the members, Systematically
worked to promote the reasonable objects
and purposes Of the scientific Socialists. All
disturbances and outbreaks on Puget Sound
for the last SIX months, arising nominally
from an agitation of the Chinese question,
were really fomented, iHcited, guided and
produced by this Infamous association,
whose real aims and designs have been stu
diously kept from the knowledge Of the real
workingmen of the labor organizations.
1.-THE Scientific Socialists of the Red Ameri-
can International Workingman's Associa-
tion," the report continues, 'are as shown
by unmistable documentary evidence before
us, secretly instructing their deluded, ignor-
ant and brutalized followers as to the means
of practically applying dynamite; how to
seize arm0ries and military stores; how to
prevent the departure of troops from con-
centrating points how to preserve order in
centers of Instructions; how to imprison
and destroy men of property and influence
To accomplish the end the association in
structs its members to be particularly active
in labor organizations.

The Case of The Sisters.

Mr. D. Lyman, chief of the navigation
division of the Treasury Department, has
made the following statement in regard to
the published card of William S. Trefethen,
of Portland, Me-, who cited the cases of the
American schooner Monterey and the Cana
dian schooner Sisters, to show that our gov
ernment officials discriminate against Amer
lean owners:
The cases of the Canadian vessel Sisters
and the American schooner Monterey differ
in the following respects: The master of the
Sisters violated Section 2S14 of the Revised
Statutes of the United States by not produc-
ing manifest to the boarding officer, when
entering the customs district of Portland
and Falmouth, Me- The penalty is not ex..
ceeding $500. 1t has been the practice of
the Treasury Department since 1866, when
this law regarding manifests first became N e

A Novel Roycott.

ROCKFORD, ILL.,, June 5.--There is con-
siderable of sensation in Rockford over a
novel boycott which has been inaugurated.
Some days ago Mr.. Leonard, President of
the Leonard Ice Company, signed with
others an application for a liquor license for
Mrs Henry, who has kept restaurant for
Is years. A prohibition paper. published the
application and the names of the signers,
and when the members of the Woman's
Christian Temperance Union saw Mr..
Leonard's name letter from their secretary
was received, in which it was stated that as
long as Frank j. Leonard had signed liquor
application they would discontinue taking
ice from him. Leonard has sent reply to
the letter, in which he says he has donated
more to the Wemans Christian Temperance
Union than all the profits he has made on
the ice they have taken Of him, and he adds;
on any institution that makes boycotting its
basis of operations; The time will come
when you will wish to get ice from us, but If
throw it into the river than sell it to you"
The temperance ladies are greatly agitated
over his reply, and it is said that all have
determined to enforce the boycott vigorously.

chicaeo's Pests.

CHICAGO, June 5.-The Cook County
grand jury reported this afternoon. The re-
port says the number of dangerous anarchist
has been greatly over-estimated. In reality
there are less than 100 dangerous characters
of anarchist tendencies. The remainder are
made up of ignorant men who implicitly fol-
low the guidance of their leaders. The re-
which cannot fail to bring these leaders to
the punishment they so justly deserve. The
jury decides that the bomb-throwing was in
consequence of premeditated conspiracy,
and that the detection of leaders be left in
the hands of the police.
