CORRESPONDENCE OF TIL. p1srATcH.l

tcoRRKsPoNpENc1 OF THE pIsPATcH.l
NEW YORK, May 31.-Certainly it will
not be expected that my weekly contri-
buttons when written q week before publi-
cation will entirely deal with the current
topics in sporting matters. Ny comment
must necessarily be about things in general
and doubtless the change will be as agree
able to my readers as to myself We have
had many confabs together for nearly two
years on things that just happened. We
have never disagreed very much as to what
results should be and what they have been.
From now on until probably few weeks
elspse readers of this weekly review will
read more Of my general opinions resulting
from general observations than probably
bonaf6e tip as to the results of immediate
events. No apology is needed for anything
like this and think can prove this before
1 am through. For q long time past
Pittsburg has been in the background as
far as the actual occurrence of sporting
events took place. Nothing has been al
lowed in the city, and all doors have been very
well closed. But comp sons show that the
rigid method of extermina ting an evil in its
outward appearance is me, and killing it
BODY and soul is another. Certainly do not
mean to even lnsinuaJe that any city toler-
stes anything that Pittsburg ignores. What
/ claim is, and my claim means everything
it says: Pittsburg will not be numbered
among the cities OF the plains il its moral es-
innate is to be founded on what we can or
dinsrily see within its borders.

Sanguine BrunelI.

While in New York / met Secretary
Brunell, of the new League, and certainly
he is the most sanguine man L have ever
met when the luture of the Players League
is talked about Or course Mr.. Brunell has
many reasons why he should be sanguine;
that is why he should very strongly express
his sanguinity whether it be true or false.
To use Mr.. Brunell's own words: 'Tne
Players League will be flying its flag when
the ruins of the old organization are crumb-
ling in the dust" Now, here is plain opin-
ion. I don't think that Secretary Brunell
is halt as sanguine as he SAYS he is. By
this dcL't mean to say he is telling us an
untruth. I think he is really exaggerating
his own feelings or estimate regard
Ing the reasonable probability Of the
end. 1 had many talks with ball
players and others interested in the
matter and everyone of them could only
base what they had to say on hope. This is
the honest conclusion that all of us must
come to. Hope In almost every case prompts
the opinion that we express concerning the
end of the present baseball conflict. 1 am
authoritatively informed that Captain
Anson, OF the Chicago club, has letters in
his possession from players in the new
League which in very plain terms states
their entire dissatis action about the present
arrangements of the outlook of the new
League. But what claim is this: That if
the new League turns out to be just as sue
cessful as either Mr.. Brunell or anybody ex-
poets baseball will just be carried on as it
has been by the National League. The
leading features of management will be and
must be just the same as in the success ul
past of baseball. 1 have failed to come
across anybody who has any reasonable
claim to baseball prominence who can rea-
sonably contend otherwise.

THE COLUMBIAN LAKES
How the rrame Arrow Was
Derived.
A DISCOVERY MADE LONG AGO
Cavities Found Filled With These
Weapons Where an Indian Bat
tie Was Once Fought
fKettlo Falls Pioneer. |

In an interview with Rauald
Macdonald, of Hudson Bay Com
pany fame, representative of the
Pioneer obtained some interesting
facts regarding the origin Of the
naming of Arrow lakes in British
Columbia Heretofore 1t was always
supposed they obtained their name
from the shape of the lakes being
long and narrow, but Mr.. MacDon-
aid gives II different theory, which
Is very plausible and which no
doubt was the real cause for their
name.
He said; While on trip up the
Columbia river with Hudson Bay
expedition in charge of Duncan
Finlyson, one of the principal stock
holders in the company, they pitched
camp on the shore of Arrow lake, on
beautiful sandy beach, at the back
of which was II hlge mountain of
perpendicular rocks hundreds of feet
in height frowning down upon
them, and on the face of which were
three cavities, or holes, about two to
three feet in diameter that were
completely filled with Indian ar
rows. These holes were up about
thirty feet from the shore, the ar
rows, no doubt, having been shot
up from below, and were wedged in
so tight that IL was almost imposis-
ble TO dislodge them.
Mr.. Macdonald, who was then
hnt IL youro ,f ARA tnnls anita nn
tercst in the arrows, which was
noticed by the commander, Mr..
Finlyson, who asked the boy If he
would like to have some of them.
Being answered in the affirmative,
he raised his shotgun and fired into
one OF the holes which brought
broken condition.
The Indians themselves could not
account for them being there, but
the supposition among them was
that many years ago the Indians
east of the Rockies Invaded this ter
ritOry in large numbers, and ter
rible battle took place i'll that neigh
borhood, and the victors having no
further Use for their war arrows shot
them into these cavities In COM
meInoration of the terrible event.
Mr.. Macdonald does not remcm-
ber whethers these arrow holes were
on the lower or upper lake, but is
positive he could locate them were
he to go over the old route, although
sixty odd years has elapsed since
then. He has frequently ques-
toned trappcrs and prospectors re-
gnrding them, none Of whom had
ever heard of them, and he began
to think it was all Imagination on
part, until he met Big Head Ed
ward, chief of the Lake Indians,
few years ago, who told him he
had frequently seen them, but, In
dian like, he had very little to say
about them.
This would be n matter of great
interest to tourists and relic hunt
ers, now that steamboats, make reg
ular trips along these lakes ol ,neir
way to Rcvelstoke. The capt rs OF
these steamers should Interest chem
selves in this matter and locate the
spot, so they could draw the atten-
ton of their passengers to the his
torlc spot that was tie foundation
for the naming of Arrow lakes.

THE HAI;BOK LINE.
Attorney General Jones Views on the
Subject.

tPost-lnteligeuccr.
w. G. Jones, of Spokane Falls, at
torney general of Washington, is at
the Rainier, having come to defend
the action of the harbor line com
mission against the writs of pro-
hibition obtained by various wharf
owners. The case was to have come
up before Judge Lichtenberg to-day,
but Mr.. Jones said to IL Post lntelli-
gencer reporter that he understood
that 1t was to be postponed until
December Is. He further said:
"The case is simply one of law,
for no questions of act are involved.
1t seems to me that the harbor line
commission Is supreme under the
law and that do court has any juris-
dictlon over it. OF course, the
courts have the power to interpret
the law which created the commits
sion, but that law Is 80 explicit as to
need no Interpretation. The state
has the right to dispose of the tide
lands, according to the decision ofthe
secretary of he interior I'm the Barnes
N''"~, "i' ~ any l'Siooiko CltllIl
pensation for improvement made
under authority of law, they can
only come in with their claims
afterward. The territorial law
allowing the shore-owners to build
out to deep water has only the
effect of a license, and gives them
no right of title in the tide lands,
nor is 1t binding on the state.
While there is much feeling on the
subject, | have found great diversity
OF opinion among those | have
talked with on it,"
"ls there any foundation for the
talk among the farmers of combi-
nation between the railroads and
elevator companies to bear wheat
by holding back shipments?"
"Well, the farmers insist that
there Is such combination, and
quote as proof the statement that
the agent of an independent eleva.
tor, who was paying 2 cents "a bushel
more for wheat than the Northern
Pacific Elevator Company, was told
by the Northern Pacific elevator
people that If he did not come down
to their price he would get no cars,
The farmers are indignant at the
shortage of cars, which they saw ia
artificial, and they are clamorinp
for the establishment of "a railroad

MRS. SENATOR DoLPH's DESSERTS.
Mrs. Senator Doiph is thoroughly
posted on the culinary department
of her household. She has written
out for me two recipes, one for spice
cake ana one for pudding. Either
will be found delicious. The spice
cake is made az follows:
zone cup water; one cup butter;
one cup syrup, or New Orleans mo-
lasses; one and one-half cups sugar;
three cups flour; three eggs; two
teaspoontuls moderately tull) yeast
powder; two teaspoonfuls (heaping)
ground cinnamon; one teaspoonful
moderately full ginger; one-half
teaspoonful, all-spice; one-quarter,
or less, teaspoonfull cloves, mace
and nutmeg (euch)."
Here Is the recipe for snow pud-
ding: "Soak one-half box gelatine
in oue-half pint of cold water for an
hour. Then add one pint boiling
water, stir till dissolved; add one
cup of sugar and the juice OF two
lemons. When partly congealed,
whip in the whites of two eggs.
Prepare the gelatine over night.
To be served with whipped cream
or custard."

WASHINGTON, July 23.-The Washing
ton Post, to which James Blaine
Walker Is occasionally contributing a
Montana paragraph, has this TO say to-day
i'm reference To the announcement that
Carter will not run again for congress:
"The announcement that Congressman
L. III. Carter, Of Montana, would not again
run for congress was something of sur
prise as, this time two years ago, he was
practically boss of his section of the coun-
try. The pnly explanation that Mr.. Carter
gives for fetiring at this time, when no
opposition To him has been developed, is
that the fntire congressional delegation
from Moptana, including the two senators
and himself, is from Helena and that il is
only fair fbat the rest OF the state should
have sdme representation. Neither
OF the senators could he expected TO sac
rifice himself, and as Mr.. Carter's own
preference is tn return To the state he
voluntarily assumes To do the retiring act.
This apparently plausible explanation Of
his course is taken with some grains Of
allowance by his friends. Thomas has
been regarded as a pretty smooth poll
tician on his regular heath, and this sud-
den burst Of unsclilshness has caused his
acquaintances To believe that his aspira-
tons reach higher than a seat in the
house. is expected that he desires to
succeed Senator Sanders, whose term ex-
pires in 1893 and that he proposes to
spend thdintervening period in keeping
his fenced in repair.
Carter sAys this is absurd on the face Of
II and entirely out of consistency with the
statement Of reasons that he yesterday
gave TO tie correspondent Of the STAUD-
ARD, and that il was the true one. He
says that for him to Withdraw because
Helena has already more than her share
of the representation and then begin "a
hunt for one of the places would he
enough to condemn him at once. He
thinks IL is not likely that Helena will get
another senator while Power is kept in
his place.

NEW Yo,sK, July 23.-Inspector Byrncs'
order last night that all the police re-
lief force in the city he held in the station
house was prompted by the threats of the
striking cloak makers made at various
times, particularly at the meeting ycster-
day, where reporters were excluded. One
of the inspectors men was present and

tor. when asked to-day why he issued the

propose 10 be there from the start and set

knowledge that We were ready for them

not say So, il Is evident that he fears an
anarchistic outbreak similar to that of
Chicago.
