Next TO John Wanamaker, Of Phila.
delphia, who raised 100000 for the
use Of Mr.. Quay in the late campaign,
the heaviest contributor TO the Commit
tee was Leland Stanford, Of California.
Mr., Stanford has large interests which
need TO be protected and aided by legis
lation. He will expect also TO be per-
mitted TO name a Cabinet official from
the Pacific coast. Y. World.
Stanford is said to be worth $780,
100000, and II was his money that sent
him TO the U. =. Senate. Before that
he had no fame anywhere, outside Of
the stud books. The amount Of money
contributed by Stanford, Jay Gould,
the V%anderDullts and Chauncey De-
pew is not known 10 the public, but
doubtless known TO Gen. Harrison.
When the cabinet 10 made up, and the
dizzy honors parceled out, those who
have put up the stuff to put Harrison
in viii doubtless be remembered in the
order of merit, and the glorious princl-
pies Of Civil Service Reform.

At 8 O'Clock the referees boat, loaded down
with the race officials, left Cumberlands boat
house (where O'Connor has his headquarters),
and moved up the river to where Teemer was
awaiting his trainers signal to go out. The
crowd by this time had increased considerably,
and the streets leading to anywhere in the
vicinity Of the start were black with
rapidly-approaching humanity. New Hamp-
shire avenue for three squares was
filed almost from curb to curb with vehicles of
all description. The O'Connor men are fore
ing the betting everywhere. They seem to
have unlimited supply of money. and takers
are scarce, even when the Toronto men offer
such odds as s to 8.
THE DREDGE IN THE WAY.
When the time arrived for calling the men
out it was found that the big dredge, which has
been working in the middle of the river
right in the course, had not been removed.
Referee Elder was unwilling to start the race
unless both men should have clear course
The referees tug steamed up to Teemer's
headquarters to find out what he thought of it,
He expressed a desire to row If possible. Harbor-
master Sutton came aboard and the boat went
down the river to get the lines, which were
stretched from the dredge, Stacked, in order
to have the course as clear as possible. This
caused the delay.
THE oARsMEN APPEAR.
The time set for the start was $50. an every
shivering mortal in all the great crowd hoped
the race would not be delayed single
minute. They were disappointed, how
ever, for it was ten minutes to
four before the preliminaries were COM
pleted, and the oarsmen notified to leave their
lighthouses. As soon as the Cecile whistled
her signal, O'Connor. amid a chorus of cheers,
entered his shell and padded around in the
cinity of the Imaginary line where the start
was to be made from. Twenty minutes later

AUDITOR PETTY's ANNUAL REPORT
Auditor Petty yesterday afternoon handed
his annual report to the Commissioners for the
fiscal year ending June 30, 1888. The total re-
ceipts for the year amounted TO IS, 557, 1858 IL
of which S4,527 ,0O7.12 was appropriated,
S10.790.07 repaid to appropriation and
Sl.019, S65. 80 was the balance on hand July 1,
1887. The report says the business of the Office
continues to increase. as shown by the fact that
6,213 accounts, inclusive of pay-rolls, were
audited, and 30 $50 checks drawn. being an ex-
cess Of TT audits and 1850 checks over those
OF the previous year. The changes in account
ing methods, ordered by the Commissioners
during the latter part of the year, with special
reference to a more thorough and accurate
audit of the accounts in the assessment and col
lection departments, have proved advantageous
to the service. He says the proposed CONSOLE

THE FENCE IS ON PRIVATE PROPERTY.
The Commissioners have received a CON-
plant from John T. Hoge, a mail-carrier. that
there is a fence built across 18th street ex-
tended, between Erie and Chaplin streets This
obstruction, he says, compels him to go such
a roundabout way that it is impossible for him
to deliver his route in the time allowed. The
blockading referred to affects about 100 houses.
Captain Symons, to whom the matter was re-
ferred, states that the fence in question is a
private one and on private property. It shuts

Curious Phenomena ON the Line OF q
Minnesota Railway.

DULUTH, MINI, Nov. PA sinkhole has
been discovefed on the st. Paul and Duluth
road at Mission creek. few miles south Of
Hinkley, by workmen who were raising the
grade. Soon after the track began sinking. It
must have been sustained on a mass OF roots
and vegetable matter floating on the water be-
low, and the additional weight put on the mass
by the filling in broke down the support For
three weeks past more than one hundred car
loads of filling day have been dumped INTO a
space not more than 30 feet wide. and the track
is in fair shape again at this point. but another
spot a short distance away is sinking out Of
line.
The surface Of the swamp is scanned and
cracked in all directions. and in some places
upheayed and turned completely over. In one
place pile of ties has been carried 40 feet
away. In holes that have been opened, sound
ing lines have been dropped down 50 feet with
out finding bottom, and a number OF curious
specimens of fish have been caught IL IL be-
leved that there is a subterranean river as the
hsh caught do not live in the swamp pools.
