wyeming,s First State Election.

CHEYENNE, Sept. 1.-THE first state
election in Wyoming came off to-day.
The utmost enthusiasm was shown by
both political parties, but it is doubtful
if the vote will be very large. The Aus
traliau ballot system was introduced for
the first time with the registration sys-
tenn. Until within a few days ago it was
understood that the law contained a
clause to the effect that when, through
absence or illness, anyone failed to regis
ter they would be permitted to swear in
their votes on election day. Although a
clause to this effect passed both. houses
of the last Legislature and appears in
both journals, for some unaccountable
reason it fails to appear in the enrolled
copy Of the law or in the printed copy.
This omission disfranchised a very large
number of voters. In 1883 the total vote
cast was 18,0O8. Carey, republican, for
delegate to congress received a majority
of 2,942. At this hour Go p. N.Y. it is
very difficult to tell much about the re-
suit. Some of the precincts are over $50
miles from the county seats and compar-
atively little can be heard from them.
The republicans claim the state by 1900
while the democrats claim it by from 800
to 1.5M.

Base Ball Finances.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. ia secret
meeting of the stockholders of the Ath.
letic base ball club was held this after
noon to take action regarding financial
difficulties. Manager William Barnle of
Baltimore was present as q representa-
tive of the American association. He
stated to the meeting that he was in
structed to inquire what measures the
stockholders proposed to adopt with ref
erence to a discontinuance of the club.
In reply to this interrogation it al un-
derstood that assurance was given that
the affairs of the club would be straight
ened out and that the club would play
its scheduled games for this season.
Secretary Whitaker of the Athletic club
stated to the meeting that the indebted
ness Of the club was, in round figures,
$4,000, including $2,65O due for players
salaries. A financial committee of six
was appointed to devise means whereby
this sum, or a portion Of it, could be
raised. tt is stated the club will be in
the field next veal.

Relieving the Money Market.

eO OS
ericsson SPRINGS, Pa, Sept. 12.-That
the president is taking a deep interest
in the financial situation is shown by the
fact that he devoted nearly two hours of
the afternoon to Geographic correspond
ence with Secretary Window at Will
Jamestown, Mass, and Assistant Secre-
taries Bachelor and Nettleton at Wash
ington as to the best means of relieving
the present stringency in the money
market. The telegraph Office is located
in a one story frame building near the
executive cottage. 1t was formerly used
by colored people as place
of worship, and it was there the
president and Halford transacted
their business this afternoon. One of
the results of the conference wal an
order for the payment of the interest ag-
gregating $5,OO0,OOO in currency skies
and for an advance in the rate for 5 per
cent. bonds at $1.25. Another question
considered was the propriety of suggest
ing an extension of the bonded per cents
under the proposed new tariff laws, but
no conclusion was reached on this point.
The latest advices received by the presl-
dent we're to the effect that money was
easier at the close of business and that
the outlook was more favorable.

A Clergyman Accused of Horse Racing,
Explains Matters Satisfactorily.
MusKEGoN, Mich, Sept. 1.-THE COM
mittee appointed by the Methodist Epis-
copal. conference to investigate the
Arney case reported to-day. Rev.
Arney, quite at variance with his threats,
confessed to having committed a very
imprudant act when he participated in a
horse race. He sincerely regretted the
notoriety caused by the transaction:
The money received by premiums had
been given to the drivers and no betting
had been done. He kept horses for per-
sonal pleasure and exercise and a posi-
bility of premiums and profits by their
sale after being properly trained. He
added that as long as he lives he will
never again engage in horse races. The
conference accepted the report and
Arney's character was allowed to pass.

necessary as the crowd was good ma

read variops notifications which the
