7 THE cause of Republicanism grows
steadily. The lines are closing up and
the stragglers are being brought into
camp. When, in November, with Gull
minated force, it falls upon the Democ-
racy, there will be a dull sickning
thud, and the foul monster free trade
will be no more.

fails to mention the head, people will
very naturally conclude that the head
is no good; no good just because the

WE clip the following from the Mem

sample of the arguments used against

resort to such blackguardism
Benjamin Harrison is a typical Re
publican. Without impeaching a
mans personal honor no worse thing
could be said of him. Without being
a thief, a burglar OF a murderer, a man
could not in any other character be a
worse citizen than by being a typical
Republican. And il he holdsa position
of honor, dignity and influence he is
infinitely dangerous to the coun-
try in the latter than in the former
character. To be a typical Republican
Is to be mean, narrow, vicious, intoller.

Strong Efforts to Form a Rival Or
ganization This Month.
SOME LOCAL OPINIONS ABOUT IT..
A Prominent Pittsburg Cricket Player
Makes q Good Suggestion.
THE SPOTTED HORSE WINS A FIGHT

1t will certainly be interesting to the
thousands of amateur athletes and their
friends in Western Pennsylvania to know
that there is a probability of very great
upheaval in the amateur world. There has
been considerable talk recently regarding
the organization of a rival to the Amateur
Athletic Union, and friends of the latter
have steadily pooh-poohed the matter. But
opposition is beginning to look strong now,
as the following dispatch from New York
shows
1t says: 'The New York Athletic Club
has finally decided to send a committee to
attend the meeting of athletic clubs which
sare interested in forming a new organiza-
tion to be called the United States League
OF Athletic Clubs Already about so clubs
hsve notified the projectors of this scheme
that they will have representatives present
at this. meeting, which will be held at Del
monico's on the 18th inst The New York
Athletic Club will be represented by A. G.
Miller, Barlow S. Weeks and j. F. c.
Blackhurst. Whether the appointment of
this committee means that the New Y0rks
are seriously considering the advisability of
throwing off the A. A. US yoke is ques-
tion that is at present heavily veiled
'There is much dissatisfaction among the
large clubs over the way the A. A. U. is
being run, as there are many so-called ath-
letic clubs which they think lend no tone
to the union. Besides, these so-called clubs
generally run the union, as they are in the
majority, and the larger clubs naturally OBJ
ject to being in a position where they can
not run affairs"
One or two prominent local members of
the A A. q. were spoken to on the matter
last evening, and one of them said: 'There is
no fear for the A. A u, as the proposed Or
ganization will not be a practicable affair.
The Three AS will most assuredly stick to
the A. A. o., and so will the L. E. GYMS
Williamsburg will also join the union, as we
all believe it. The meeting on the 18th
will show that the proposed rival of the A

Yale's Poor Crew,

Captain John Rogers of the famous 's7 eight.
Mr.. C. Adee was up from New York and was
present at the practice. Mr.. Rogers is one
of the best coachers that Yale has, and the
candidates yesterday got their first good
dose OF coaching. The lst of February is
here now, and as the thinning out of the
candidates will soon begin the men have all
settled down to the hardest kind of training,
and yesterday rowed their very best. When
Captain Rogers WAS asked what he thought
of the material. he said: "They are a pretty
poor lot of oarsmen. and it will take a deal
them. The men are good deal lighter than
were the candidates last year, and very few
of them have had any experience to speak
OF. 1t is impossible to judge of their ability
at present, however, and only lots of coach
ing and hard work will tell what kind of o
crew can be gotten out of them"

NEW YORK, Feb. 2.-Shortly after 10 O'Clock
last night an alarm was sent out for fire at
81 Hester street. q ive-story brick tenement

sent out at the same time. The blaze started
from an overturned kerosene lamp in the
apartments of Solomon Zalinsky on the Sec
ond floor, and soon the three stories above
were mass of flames, and the tenants we're
thrown into q panic. The fire escapes were
crowded. which added to the confusion.
Some of the unfortunates sprang for their
lives and others were knocked to the stone
courtyard below from the fire escapes. Two
OF them were undoubtedly fatally injured
and four others are suffering from broken
limbs and bruised heads. Louis Kauhmann
and Fanny Levy, on the third floor, tried to
escape by the staircase, but both were cut
off by the flames. They went to the roof,
from which they jumped, locked in each 9TH
ers' arms, to the courtyard below, where
they fell bleeding and insensible. Both
were severely injured, as was solomon "a
linsky, who tried to save the girl. Mrs. Ida
Goldstein, the grandmother of little Frieda,
Is months old, threw the child out of win
dow into the courtyard. 1t struck on its
head and will die. Rebecca Ponerantz,

on the fourth floor and her back was
broken. She will die. The fremen soon
got the flames under control. The total loss
will be about 5000.
