RALEIGH. n. c., September 13.-There is
much indignation manifested here IN DEM
ocratic circles over the reported utterances
recently made of $. Ohio Wilson, business
manager of the State Farmers Alliance. It
seems that Wilson went up to Caldwell
county for the purpose of transactIng bust
ness for the alliance, but while there gave
vent to his feelings by declaring that
Vance would bo beaten for the Senate, and
urged his hearers TO refuse TO subscribe Tor
such State papers as had criticised the ac-
ton of the alliance. 1t is openly charged
here that Wilson is in the confidence OF
his efforts in the direction of defeating the
ascendancy of the Democratic party IN the
next Legislature.

A Large Number of Them Picnic at
Meadows End Yesterday.
About 100 of the Arions, with friends
from New York, Brooklyn and other
places, went down to Meadows End yes
terday for picnic. They have been
down to this popular resort for the past
two years with the Concordia society of
Bridgeport. This year they went as body
alone. They took the train as far as the
Naugatuck junction and from there
walked to the grove. The day was spent
very enjoyably. Parties went out fishing,
others played base ball and other games.
The dinner served by Landlord Nettleton
of the Meadows end house proved to be
not the least attractive feature. The club
sang many of their songs and attracted
large crowds from the cottages, hotel and
those who had come down in buses from
Ansonia, Derby, Stratford, Bridgeport
and other nighboring places. After per
feet day of enjoyment the party returned
to- this city on the train arriving at s

SULLIVAN IN A QUANDARY.

Unwilling to Take the Risk of TAX
ing the Washington Team TO other
Cities.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-Manager Sulli-
van of the Washington team is in guam
Diary. He does not know what to do about
playing scheduled games. He has enough
players here and in Baltimore to make up
team, but he does not like to venture 60
ing away on his own responsibility Per-
sonally and for the sake of his professional
reputation he is anxious to continue, but
he realizes that the odds of success are
against him and hence he is still undecided
what to do
He determined last night that he would
start to Lebanon to-day, but when to-day
came Ted had gotten back on the ragged
edge, and it is extremely unlikely he will
go away before next week.. if he does al
that time. Gleason was given benefit
this afternoon. A number of the old team
consented to remain over, and this was
their last appearance in Washington uni
forms. The Columbia Athletic club team
played against the nine and there was 6
large attendance.

THE BOAT CAPSIZED.

The Gale Capsizes a Boat With Three
Men Aboard Off the Lighthouse.
Captain Thompson of the lighthouse had
quite a chance yesterday to test his life
saving powers. Just off from the break
water there was small fourteen-foot
sharpe with two men and boy aboard,
trying to make their way to shore, when
that severe gale about 3:45 o'clock struck
them, capsizing the boat. The parties
were struggling in the water some minutes
before they were able to regain the boat
and Chamber upon its side. They all
shouted vigorously for help. 1t was not
many minutes before Captain Thompson,
with John Langdon of Lloyd street and
Frank Fisk in the boat with him, were on
their errand of rescue. Just Sbout the
same time they reached the cap
sized boat the tug Carrie Mich
OILS with an excursion party on
board was on the scene, and took the
three on board and brought them to the
city. They were none the worse for their
wetting, but had a narrow escape from
drowning, as the sea and wind at the time
of the accident were anything but peace
full. The men gave their names as Freder-
ickson and Wilkinson. The boy was about
five years old, and the least excited of the
three.

HARTFORD, Aug. 9.-The disbandment
of the Washington club and the rain of
yesterday and to-day mean loss of $500
in guarantee money to the Hartford base
ball club. At this season of the year, with
the finances of the club in the condition
that they are, this accumulation of hard
luck strikes severe blow at the team
When the club started on its last southern
trip it was understood that they were
CHANGING it and that if conditions were not
favorable they would be unable to make
money enough to pay the salaries for the
last fifteen days in July. AS yet this fort
nights pay has not been received by the
players and another pay day is coming
next week. Unless the club has good luck
in the next week it would not be surpris-
ing to see the Hartfords drop out of the

gresham wilcox.
Captain Charles H. Townshend has re-
turned from very enjoyable trip with
the New York Yacht club. He sailed on
the elegant yacht Atalanta, owned and
commanded by his brother, Edward H.
Townshend. The splendid yacht Phan-
tom of Mr.. Parmelee's, this city, was also
along. Both these yachts belong to the
New Haven as we'll as the New York Yacht
club. The trip was delightful one. At
Newport Captain Townshend visited Ad-
mirals Luce and Porter, U. s. N, and en-
joyed the race of the yachts. Admiral
Luce watched the race from on board the
torpedo boat Gushing, which attained a
speed of twenty-four miles an hour. This
high rate Of speed caused the British
naval officers who saw the race to marvel
Among the British officers was Admiral
Watson, who was on board Commodore
Gerry's Electra. Commodore Gerry is a
grandson of Elbridge Gerry one Of the
Connecticut signers Of the Declaration of
independence, and nephew of Miss Gerry
Of Temple street, New Haven, who is the
only lividg child of .signer of that i'm
mortal document. Commodore Gerry told
Captain Townshend that had both break
waters in New Haven harbor been COM
pleted the whole New Haven yacht club
would have rendezvouse in New Haven
harbor over night. As it was only few
Of the yachts stopped here. Commodore
Gerry, speaking further of New Haven
harbor, said it was the most convenient of
any to New York ON account of its
size .and proximity to the metropolis
Captain Townshend bestowed great
praise on Congressman Wilcox, who is
working indefatigably in behalf of lib
eral appropriation by congress for the
completion of New. Ravens breakwaSer,
as is known also to others of our enter
prising and public spirited New Haveners.
Captain Townshend, speaking of the New
York Yacht club, 100 sails, said it aston
ished the British officers by it's size and the
magnifcence and numbers of the Yachts.
It is the finest and most costly fleet of
yachts in the wide, wide world, Captain
Townshend left the yachts at Newport and
went to Boston. From thence he re-
turned to New Haven, stopping at Prov
incetown, and visiting on Cape Cod, the
