Trying to Have It Suppressed and De-

CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-The opponents Of Gar
field Park are making desperate efforts to per-
manently abolish the track. Their latest at
tempt is in the shape Of bill filed in the crcui,
court to suppress the track and have it de-
clsred public and common nuisance. The
complaints are to the effect that the club has
been doing business without a license: that i,
has been necessary for the police to keep con-
value OF property in e~neighborhood; that
Garfield Park was crowded with idle and dis
solute people, and finally, that the money alb
sorbed by the club came from the industrial
class, and the court is asked to perpetually
enjoin the club from carrying on business al
the park. The hearing will probably be re-
ferred to a master in chancery.

Special Dispatch TO The Evening Star
CHARLESTON, S. c., Oct 1.-The republican
congressional convention of first district met here
today and after indorsing Harrison and Reid
adjourned. An effort was made to put can
didate for Congress in the field, but the party
leaders frowned on it and the proposition was
voted down. This leaves W. II. Brawley the
only candidate in the field.
In the second district it Is probable that ].
W. Tslbert, the alliance democratic candidate,
will also have a walkover, Paris Simkins, the
republican nominee, having refused to make
the race.
Thus far the republicans have only two can
didates in the field for Congress-G. w. Muir
ray, in the seventh, and J. F. Ensor, in the
fifth. There is very little doubt that the recent
reduction Of the third party in Georgia and
Florida has demoralized the republicans in this
state.
