and the Congo states The bill never
passed, but on the strength of it's being
presented, a company was started by a
set of ignorant colored men and styled
the United States and Congo Steamship
and Navigation Co. This company did
a thriving business, through it's agent,
Rev. Thomas Peake, in some of the
Southern states, until it was shown up
as fraud. 1t was fake, but it seems
the fake has led to something tangible,
as we are advised that Rev. CASTOR is
now in Washington, accompanied by
Capt. John Murray and w. B. Lewis,
who represent the owners of an i'm
portant steamship line Of Liverpool,
Eng, for the purpose of estab lishing a
line of steamers to ply between some
southern port and port of Liberia and
Congo Free State. Rev. CASTOR is the
authorized agent of the Liberian Emf
grafton Co. In his recent travels through
the south, he claims to have secured
fully 1900, 900 signatures of colored
people who are willing to go to Africa.
While we have high regard for Mr..
GastOn's prefix of Rev, yet we rather
doubt that he secured as many as g.
600, 900 names. We don't believe there
are 1000, 900 imbeciles in the south.
Capt. Murray and Mr.. Lewis are large
ly interested in the development fnan-
cially, of South Africa, and no doubt
would be willing to transport thousands
of our AfroAmericans to this reputed
promised land.

THE G. A. r. EMBODIMENT.

1t was said some time ago that the
G.. A. z. was doing more to keep alive
sectional strife and feeling than any
other organization, and it seems there is
some truth in the claim. It seems that
when these grizzly old warriors get to-
gether they have to refght their battles
over. and give expression to vindictive
sentiments that are considered relics of
the war and unfit to be displayed in
public. Just now when the Afro
Americans are bending every energy,
every effort towards smoothing away
prejudice, and just at a time when they
had begun to feel that their efforts
were availing, the old wound breaks out
afresh and it is the G. A. r. that ''tears
agap the healing wound" Col James
Lewis, administrator of public works
in New Orleans, and by the way one of
the sturdiest leaders the race has,
championed the colored side in the re-
cent G. A. r. fracas at Detroit in which
the southern white posts were rampant
in their effort to have old colOred SOL
diers read out of the G. A. R.
When asked what was the trouble,
Col Lewis said did you ever know
of a time when there was no trouble in
Louisiana? 1t was a Louisiana man
that fred upon Fl. Sumter It was
Louisiana man that beat Gen. Beaure-
gard for administrator of public works,
and | am that man, and did something
the union generals did not.
Louisiana was the first state to de-
eide for Hayes. The Italian riot was
in Louisiana and now the g. A. r.
trouble is sprung in Louisiana. There
were "a, 900 colored men enlisted in
Louisiana, more than from all other
states. We were regularly enlisted,
we fought bravely and valiently and
then were discharged honorably.
with these things to our credit, we
had all the rights of any man to form
G. A. r. posts"
To be professor in an institution of
learning is in all cases an honor, and
when that honor rests upon the shout

Clark, it is dOubly greater Prof. Clark
is a close student, being perfectly de-
voted to his chosen profession. He is
an Ohio boy and was educated at Will
berforce university, at which institu-
ton he was distinguished for his excel
lent scholarship After finishing school
he went south, believing that the most
good could be accomplished for his race
by working where the greatest num-

He Decides to Withdraw From the Brook
Iyn Club Owing to Ouarrels.
NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-[Special. 1.-The
bomb which has been sizzling in the camp of
the Brooklyn League club for the past
month exploded yesterday with such loud
report that there will probably be most
uncomfortable feeling in the meeting of the
League this morning at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel. Director F. A. Abell has decided
to step down and out, and has offered his
stock in the club for sale. His action is
directly due to misunderstanding with
Director yoseph J. Doyle.
To understand the effect of Mr.. AbelPs
latest step it is necessary to state that the
stock he has placed on sale is one-half the
capital stock in the old Brooklyn Baseball
Club, limited, which has not yet succeeded
in consolidating with the Brooklyn PLAYERS
League Club. The latter organization has
not paid over the last $40, 900 of the $50, 900
cash payment necessary to bind the two
clubs together, consequently, baseball in
BROOKLYN has been and is now entirely de-
pendent upon the club controlled by Abel,
DOYLE and Byrne Tho PLAYERS League
capitalists do not figure in the matter al ALL
Mr.. Abell's withdrawal means serious
blow to the Brooklyn Club He is its
heaviest financial backer and has been called
upon more than once to put his hand deep
downin his pocket to help the club along
This he has done willingly at all times
Now, however, his trouble with Mr.. Doyle
has widened into such breach that recon-
ciliation becomes an impossibility. Mr..
Abell positively refuses to have any further
business connections with Mr. Doyle and
has decided to get out of baseball as far as
the Brooklyn Club is concerned

Quite a Strong Game.

GENERAL SPORTING NEWS OF THE DAY

NEW HAVEN, Nov 11.-Yale played her
last match game of football on the Yale
field this afternoon with Amherst. The
battle was won by Yale, but the final score
showed only q points. The weather was
very bad for football and Yale started in
with team crippled by the absence Of
McClung, Heffelfnger and Hinckey. The
latter was hurt in practice yesterday and
McClung and Heffelfinger were in Spring
field watching the Harvard-Trinity game.
Hillman played at center during the first
half, but found Lewis, his opponent, so
much of a man that he gave Paine chance
to try his skill in the second half.
Amherst's wedge was brokea at the start
off and Yale got the ball on four downs,
sending Bliss through the line for 30 yards
and touchdown. jackson was following
Bliss closely and tackled him behind the
line, both men fell together, but Bliss did
not get up. He was taken from the field
stunned and Dyer substituted. Morrison
failed to kick goal and Mccormick fell a
victim to Jackson's tackling moment
later. He, too, was carried off the field and
Richards put in his place.
After this the game was played in the
center of the field for 20 minutes, neither
side making much headway, although Am
herst bucked Yale's center strongly and
oftentimes successfully. The half closed
with touchdowns by c. D. Bliss and Wallis
and goal from the field by Richards.
The second half was repitition of the
first, with perhaps the exception of Jack
sons run to Yale's ten-yard line, which he
followed by a kick through Yale's center,
carrying the ball within two feet of Yale's
line. Then Yale held the ball and got it
on four downs. 1t was hard-earned
victory for Yale and one which her sup
porters are doing some thinking over.
