THE UNIVERSITY CLUB.

An Election Last Night-A Magnificent
New Clubhouse.
An election was held last night by the mem
bers of the University Club to select a board of
governors to serve, respectively, one, two, and
three years, according as the new board may
determine. The University Club is the old
Meridian Club, re-incorporated last January,
having in view the increasement of its member
ship of college graduates, and the estab-
lshment of club similar in nature to the uni
versity clubs in other cities. The membership
has greatly increased in the last month, the
active members of the club now numbering
over 200, while the list of nonresident mem
bers is about so.
1t is expected that Chief Justice Fuller will
be elected president at the next meeting of the
board of governors, and in case he should de-
cline the honor Justice Harlan will no doubt be
asked to accept the presidency.
The club contemplates either building mag
nifcent house somewhere on Connecticut ave-
nue. during the next year, or leasing for num-
Der of years the old Russian Legation, on
street, for quarters, as the present house is not
roomy enough, with the increased membership.
The election last night resulted in the
choice Of the following-named persons
w. V. r. Berry, Barry Bulkley, Robert s. Chill
ton, Jr., w. d. Davidge, Pickering Dodge, John
G. Edwards, Henry Wise Garnett, S. Herbert
Giesy, Judge A. B. Hagner, Admiral Jouet,
Woodbury. Lowery, Marshall Mcdonald, E. s.

Samuel D.. Trimble, L. G.. Trescot, DR.. A. H.
Wilmer, and John Sidney Webb.

Looked at calmly and dspassionately, the
American Association people have good grounds
for their manly and dignified course The
League has been hagging 1t for years. using the
Association as a sort of catspaw, but this sea
son they struck different set of men and now
they are realizing the position they are il. The
masses are with the Association and will
patronize them in preference to the monopo-
lists. For the interest Of the game, peace and
harmony is best, of course, but in the face OF
existing facts it is hard to see how else the AS
sociation could act. May they have the courage
to keep up the fight and at last run the League
to cover There is an important meeting OF the
League and board of control tonight at Chi
cago, and 1t is not improbable that truce will
be declared, as 1t looks unreasonable for the
League to continue fight in the face of such
desertions as Kelly, Nash, Brouthers, Richard
son, Becky, Staley, and others that are already
announced, with the prospect probably of more
to follow. The Association has the whip hand.
The grand stand at the National Park will be
furnished with the finest seats in this country.
They are the Dewly-patented, highly-polished
folding oak chairs, similar in come respects to
those in the Polo grounds, New York. Sam
Piles are now on exhibition at Director Scanans
and are much admired by those who frequent
the place. The contract calls for 500 of them
for the grand stand.
President Krauthoff, whom President Young
said was the brainiest legal mind in base bali,
decided against Thurman and Rogers in the
Berbauer and Stovey cases. In summing up
the case President Krauthoff called attention
to the fact that last year the American Associa-
tion proved steadfast and true to the League in
its fight against the Players League, and it was
shameful and distressing to think that now the
League was going to stab them in the back by
stealing its property.

A Successful Firm

The assertion is frequently heard that Wash
ington can never be manufacturing city, but
many facts can be adduced to prove that manu-
features can thrive here as well as elsewhere
when they are directed by enterprising and in
telligent men. For instance, the firm Of
Andrew Joyce's Sons, carriage builders,
shows what can be done in Washington
in this difficult line of manufactures.
This firm, by care, perseverance, integrity,
and intelligence, has established one
of the most successful carriage-building
businesses in the country, and specimens of
their work are to be found in almost every
American city Their Connecticut-ayenue
ware-rooms contain as fine a collection of
broughams, victorias, spider phaetons, carts,
coaches, as well as a complete and elegant as
sortment ef harness, blankets, lap robes, rugs,
imported whips, and, in fact, all stable
belongings as can be found anywhere
The speciality of the Joyces has alwaye been
work made to order, and many of the most unique
equipages in the country have been built by
them in pursuance of the designs and plans of
their owner architects. Mr.. George w. Joyce,
the senior member of the firm, has been identi-
fed with the house for seventeen years. He is
vice president of the Carriage Builders
National Association, also promi-
nent member of the Technical School
for Carriage Draughtsmen and the Ad-
Vancement OF Mechanics, to which ne is a liberal
subscriber Mr.. r. Edwin Joyce is the junior
member OF the firm.

THUEMAN's DOUBLE DEALING.
What Messrs. Bennett and Scanlan Say of
the Base Ball Imbroglio.

Vhdt MesbFh. A1enueLD anu seaman Say of
the Baseball Imbroglio.
Some new light on the present baseball en-
broglio, especially the action of President Thur
man, was shed yesterday by President Bennett
and Director scanlan at baseball headquarters.
Some weeks ago President Thurman was in this
city and in general way went over the base
ball troubles and the anticipated action In rela-
tion to the disputed players. He asked Mr.. Scan
Ian what be thought would be the best way to
arrange the new agreement in regard to the sale
or players. ''Why," said Mr.. Seanlan, ''the
way is clear enough. Prohibit the clubs from
carrying so many players on their reserved and
regular lists Make obligatory that no more than
thirteen men shall be carried by any team, for
when they have more it is only to make capital
out of the men by barterng them to the highest
bidder" ''Ihat is my opinion exactly" said
President Thurman, s'and l shall insist on it,
President Thurman and Mr.. Seanlan later had
a discussion about the Buffalo players, the latter
insisting il was absolutely necessary for Mack
et al. 70 come back here, and Mr. Thurman
agreed. When the conference took place IN
New York and Mr.. Seanlan reiterated his de-
mands for Mack, Hoy, HaddOck, and Beecher,

II will decrease in force and will not be a severe
storm on the Atlantic Coast. The tides on that
coast, however, will be quite high about the

The center Of this storm wave will not reach

will follow it, crossing the continent from the

accident while at work on the west side yester-
day morning. He was using some solder in q
gutter aud did not notice that there was lit
tie water ia it. The moment that he applied
the melted metal it snapped and few. One
piece of it came directly for his eye, and the
lids closed involuntarily as the solder struck.
They closed the moment Of contact and as il
rested upon the lashes it soldeFed the lids to-
gether 20 firmly that it was impossible to move
them. Theeye was not injured in the slightest
but il was efectually closed. The victim was
half amused at the ridiculous side Of the affair,
and wanted 10 go 20 barber and have the eve
cut open, but companion took him to Dr.
Edmunds, who severed the lashes and removed
the metal fastening, so that the plumber is now
using both eyes again. But there are no lashes
left TO intercept the next flight Of hot solder.

Death OF POIYgamy.

There are probably hundred aud fifty thou.

many have sided with the church in which arc

embracing it's faith. IL is idle now 10 think
Of DISTINGUISHING the Latter-day Saints. They
are an industrious, temperate people. as a rulel
and nay observation has led me TO believe that
they are lsw-abiding since the church took its
stand under the law against plural marriage.
j am aware that now and then individuals will
report violations Of that law since the mani
iestOi but upon investigation such charges are
seldom sustained. Ii would be strange IL there
were no breaches Of &C.; there are some such
