sUPPoRr OF HIS WIFE.

In this desire to get and keep nearer
the people he has the support of his
wife, and only yesterday an American
LADY, gave me an interesting example Of
that fact. She was walking in Hyde
Park. end there was an unusual crowd Of
ladies along the pathway, She asked
one OF tho number if anything was going
on.
Eyes" was the polite reply, "the
Princess rides to-day"
She waited some little time hoping to
see her, and the royal turnout did not
appear. Then, with true American i'm
patience, she approached the lady and
suggested that perhaps she would not
come. The English woman's manner
changed. She turned, and in quite an
indignant tone said:
lyon are mistaken. The Princess
never fails US.
On the quarterstretch Of the Good
wood races, on Cup-Day, the most IA

King, with his field glass swung over hls
shoulder, mingling among the people,
low as we'll as high, with far more free.
dom than an ordinary rich man would
have done in America under similar CIR
cumstances. Two horses from his stable
were entered in the races. Both OF them
ran second, and there was hardly per,
son among the many thousands on that
track who was not sorry to the heart thai
his horse did not win the great cur
event, and they made the fact apparent
in many ways.

ESPECIAL TELEeRAA TO THE DIsPArcHI
NEW YORK, February 6.-John NJ. Ward
treats John B. Days public statement in q
farcical sense and thinks it warrants;no answer
from him as President of the Brotherhood.
However he makes the following exclusive
autograph statement for THE DISPATCH:
NEW YORK, February S.
Mr.. Day has seized upon newspaper paragraph
TO rush into print, loudly proclaiming his own
honor ana abusing the Brotherhood ball players.
IL was an exceedingly small peg on which to hang
such heavy load. No one In authority with the
Players League has asked MIR. Day to ioin forces
with us, so that his refusal is slightly premature
even II the paragraph in question only advised
him to do so, but at the same time expressed
doubt as to his ever doing 1t. If Mrs Day is q
suherer financially by the movement Of the play
ers II is not because any Of them wished him
harm. but because he is associated with a
monstrous monopoly, in breaking down which 1t
was necessary to hit him along with the others.
This tight was made not against individuals but
against system, and Mr.. Day has had to suffer
on account Of his associations.

SAN FRANCISCO. February SO Connor, the
oarsman, is in this city, waiting for the Austria
liam steamer which sails on Saturday. He says
he thinks his next match will be with STAINS
bury, who is at present working on the Emps
farm. Stansbury is a good man, and gave
Searle a hard push, and only finishing by half
length in the rear. O'Connor will not tackle
him until he has become accustomed to the
Australian climate and waters, but when salts
fed with his condition he will make race, and
will thereafter be open to all comers
Jim Corbett, notwithstanding the announce
ment made by himself that he was going to
leave for New Orleans last Saturday night is
still in the city. One of the conditions of his
acceptance of the offer for a match with Kill
rain was that his expenses from San Francisco
to New Orleans should be paid by the party
making the proposition. As yet the amount
has not been received.

lsrrc1AL rELEenAx TO THE DISPATCH,

NEW YORK. January 5.-Fred Stearns,
ex-President OF the old Detroit National
League Club, is in the city, and his mission
is a mystery. His arrival was extremely
quiet and only a few League supporters
were aware Of it. He declines to say what
his business is, other than that it is private.
People who claim to know, however, state
that be is here bent on trying to get his club
into the National League. He has strong
objections to the International League.
But it is not likely that his club can get into the
League except a deal be made with Washing
ton, and ''thats what he is trying to do" said
League official to-day.

All OF these clubs will be debarred from play

Bright said that he could not give up the right

minor league teams with which he intended
making dates.
The Yale College managers have refused to
play any Of the Brotherhood clubs, giving as
their reason that all the dates have been filled.

ASKING LOWER RATES.
Nebraska Farmers Cannot Ship Corn at Pres
ent High Rates.


ent High Rates.
CHICAGO, February 8. - Secretary Of
State Cowdry, Land Commissioner Steen
and State Treasurer Hill, of Nebraska, ma
iority of the State Board of Transportation,
reached this city yesterday. Their wish is
to induce the railroads to grant them lower
rates on corn from that State. They say
that the farmers have plenty Of corn, but
that the transportation charges are nearly
equal to its cash price at the point of ship
ment. They met the managers of the rail-
roads interested this forenoon aud had
long conference. Thus far no definite con-
clusion has been reached. and the State Off
Gals express little hope of being able to ac-
compIish anything. They say that while
the rates are much too high, temporary re-
duction, which is all they can get from the
railroads, would do no gooo. The present
state of affairs is likely to last several years.
and they want correspondingly permanent
reduction in freight rates. Governor
Thayer of Nebraska was expected here this
morning on the same errand as that OF the
other gentlemen. It was understood that
the Board OF Transportation were making a
race of it to see who could get relief for the
farmers first.

head of movement to ship American cat
tie to England via Montreal. Armour s.
Co. have no interest in the movement, said

nothing but dressed meats. The live stock
shippers have been considering this plan
for some time, ani they are doubtless near
ing a successful end 1t may be possible
that packing establishments will be built in

the shippers. What effect, if any, it will
have on the American dressed beef trade

A SMALL YIELD OF SUGAR

The Cane Crop Ruined by DrOuEhf or De.
stroyed by Fire.
HAVANA. February 5.-It is conceded
that the sugar yield will be smaller than
was at first anticipated. This is due to two
cause.-the prolonged drought, which has
considerably decreased the yield OF the cane,
and frequent fires on the plantations, which
have destroyed much cane. s.
At Sagua some estates will scarcely pro-
duce 80 per entof the quantity of sugar
they expected to make at the beginning of
the season. The plantation fires have de-
stroyed about 5000, 900 sarrobas of cane in
the fields of the island.

think there is so much difference, and would
be in favor, as 1 stated before, of admitting

classify them separately.
