ceiver in the case of Cake agt. Woodbury. to
take charge of the Hotel Normandie, by Mr..
j. j. Darlington. filed a petition stating tina.
the receipts from the business for this season
of the year are less than the necessary expenses
and in consequence an indebtedness of about
1880, exclusive of rents has unavoidably been
incurred. He says he has advanced about $50
out Of his own pocket to meet urgent bills. He
petitions that as neither party to the suit will
advance money to carry ON the losing business
the court will give him power to meet further
expenses by realizing on the hotels assets, or
else that he be allowed to resign the receiver
ship. The petition will be called up on Thurs
day.

BETTING ON THE MATCH.
Longstreet and Tenny Are Equal Favoritet
With the BOokmakers.

Longstreet and Tenny Are Equal Favorites
With the BOokmakers.
The match race between Longstreet and
Tenny tomorrow is the universal topic in rae
ing circles. Last night bookmakers were offer
ing 10 to on and take your pick. Mr.. David
7. Pulsifer, owner of Tenny, has bet Book
maker C. H. Thompson $500 even money on
his horse. Mr.. Pulsifer and the stable follow
ing are very confident.
Mr.. Milton Young, who bought Longstreet
for his McGrathiana stock farm when his rae
ing days are over. bet $500 on Tenny. ..And 1
hope will lose my BET" said he, when he made
1t.
There is enough division of opinion among
the wide heads" as those wise gentlemen are
called whose profession it is to study the
American thoroughbred as he appears from day
morrow. If Mr.. NJ. L. Dwyer does not send
into the ring one Of those big commissions of
his Tenny will 90 TO the post the favorite, as he
has the strongest popular support.
1t is probable that books will be made on the
time of the race. With fast track and a warm
day the circular track record of 2.05 will prob
ably be in danger, for the race will doubtless
be from the fall of the flag for the horse that
waits TO sprint with Tenny in the stretch might
just as well go back to his stable.
Hamilton will ride Longstreet and Barnes
will ride Tenny. 1t is not generally known that
Barnes rode Tenny to his first victory. 1t was
in purse race at Latonia, October 8, 1888, an
owners handicap. and Barnes rode at ninety
three pounds. The field was a very poor one
As three-year-olds Longstreet and Tenny
met aud beat each other often enough TO leave
the question of supremacy an open one As
four-year-Olds Tenny was a grand horse and
Longstreet was hardly for day fit and good.
At no time was he the Longstreet of today.
The fact that Mr.. Dwyep has given Mr.. Pull
sifer his own ground and his own distance is
sufficient proof that he believes his grand horse
to be up to the race of his life. And it must
always be remembered that Mr.. Dwyer has
Kingston to measure Longstreets ability.
All things considered the race ought to be
the most interesting the pubic has seen this
year.

a Trap for Light Vehicles.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Several times recently the wheels Of light
vehicles have become jammed in the slots of
the cable railway on 14th street extended. The
slots are irregular in width and at some points
very wide, and they are doubly dangerous be-
cause the impression prevails that they are too
narrow to admit wheels. Last eFening the rear
wheel of buggy driven by lady went into the
slot nearly TO the hub and stuck fast A seri-
Gus accident might have resulted had the horse
not been u quiet one. Y.

WEST WASHINGTON, d. c.
notice in your issue of the 25th instant, I'M
der the head of Suggestion" letter signed
James L. Clements" who learn. is O citizen
of Alexandria county, Va, in which he throws
out a suggestion that each Grand Army man in
Washington contribute 81 and allow the citizens
the liberty to contribute as much as they choose,
which subscription. added to his gift of 800,
would, in his belief, in few weeks make the
necessary sum OF 10000. sufficient. 10 build
temporary DanenhOwer bridge across the Po-
tonlac. 1t is to be presumed that he means
pOntoon bridge, as this is the kind of bridge
that some of the Grand Army men we're used to
building and probably would know better how
to go TO work on same than real estate BOOM
ers- Then after the Grand Army encempment
Lad closed up its session this bridge could be
taken away with very little expense. then there
would be no interruption to navigation. l
suppose IL matters rot to the millers, coal deal
crs. lumber merchants and all other dealers in
general whether or not n temporary Danen-
hover bridge OF obstruction was thrown across
the Potomac river below this city. Would it
not be detrimental to the business of this city,
especially now that the Chesapeake and Ohio
canal Is compile cd and the water to be turned
on by August for the resumption OF trade
al ter lapse OF twJ wears! The merchants are
making arrangements for q much larger trade
via the Chesapeake and Ohio canal for ship
ments than there has been in the past several
years This temper, ry bridge is ali nice for
owners or agents Who have Virginia property
in their hands for sale. Then i suppose the
Georgetown merchants, especially those on
Water street. would be to the schemers like the
frogs were to the boy-fun Ior owners or agents,
but death to the merchants. Such would be
the state of affairs if this temporary Danen-
hover bridge constructed. Now. Mr.. Ed
ltor, do you suppose for moment the mer-
chants mere would fold their arms quietly while
the Dane nhower structure was being con-
strueled across the river, in which event it
would completely cut off the heavy trade o: this
city? Try and put up a Danenhower bridge
and you will hear 10000 voices against OBJ
structing navigation. MERCHANT.
