ATLANTIC City, Aug. 1S.-This is the

States. No other attracts one-half SO
many visitors. 1t is city of pleasure
whose magnitude astonishes all behold
ers. Atlantic City stretches three miles
or more up and down the shore, and ex-
tends back from the sea about half a
mile, Within this area are 700 hotels
and cottages licensed to entertain
guests. Seven hundred is a large num-
Der of hotels for one town when YOU
come to think of it. Besides there are
thousands of cottages owned by people
who come here for the summer months
and invite their friends to soiourn with
them.

swells up to a regular population of

The POS g. 4 of Maud dwindled into
obscurity, and the worlds notch of 2:0s IA
held until yesterday by Robert Bonner's
Sunol, pales by full second before the
clip set by the peerless Nancy Hanks.
Twelve thousand persons saw the I'M
equalled feat performed. So fast did she
trot and so enthralling was her pace and
perfect her motion, that as she sped I'M
der the wire with 2:07 IA hung out on the
stand, the big crowd of enthusiasts let
loose as if bedlam had escaped, and Do
BILE and the conqueror of time were lifted
from their feet. Man and mare were
practically carried to the paddock, and
the races that followed were seen only as a
passing memory.

much faster, bst that she was somewhat
retarded by the strong breeze down the

The Queen Would Not Sanction His
Presence in Gladstope's Cabinet.
LONDON, Aug 1S-There was so much sur
prise occasioned by the omission of Mr..
Labouchere from Mr., Gladstone's cabinet,
that the Liberals, who fear that the Incl
dent will arouse the hostility of their
Radical allies, have concluded to allow
the truth in the matter to leak out. 1t
thus becomes known that Labouchere' S
name was at first included in tbs cabinet
list, but at the mention of it, The queen
showed intense feeling, and declared that
she would never give her sanction to the
appointment of man who had per
sistently opposed the royal grants, and
had printed in his paper what she termed
disgusting trash about the royal family.
When the formal list was presented to
her majesty, she eagerly scanned 1T to
make sure that the obnoxious name, in
cluded in the tentative draft, had been
dropped, This is the only change, so far
as known, insisted upon by the queen.
Mr.. Labouchere's disappointed friends
think that Mr.. Gladstone should have
overridden the queens objections, and
insisted upon his right to choose his own
advisers The premier, however, had no
disposition to show such unprecedented
discouresty to his sovereign. The Tories
are jubilant over the prospects OF Laoou-
chere's causing trouble for the Glad
stonian government.
1t is stated as a fact that when Professor
Brice's name was presented to the queen
as the appointee for the chancellorship OF
the duchy of Lancaster, her majesty SAID
she had never heard of him, and inquired
who he was On being informed OF the
professors record she expressed her ap-
prevail of the appointment.
Moorish Locusts Feed Man and Beast.
The British consul at Mogador while
ON an excursion inland, about a days
journey from Mogador, met flights of
locusts. He says it was an astonisb g
and interesting though painful SIT t,
the air being in some parts so thick W. IN
them that they formed a dense living
brown fog, through which he could
hardly find his way, while they so COM
pletely covered the ground that the ut
most caution was necessary in walking,
as he could not tell whether he was
ON soft sand, hard slippery
rock, or what.
Many birds Toasted ON the insects, in
GLIDING large flights of gulls from the
sea, and beasts evidently enjoy their
share, for in the middle of the densest |
swarm he saw fine red fox dancing |
about in the most frantic manner, leap
ing up and swapping dozens of the To-
Gusts in the air, until, seeing the
stranger, he suddenly dropped ON all
tours and quickly vanished in the live
log. Not only did the barbel get their
share of the novel food (the consul used
the locusts successfully as bait for
them), but some of the fish of the Allan
tic were found gorged with locusts
which had been blown off the land by
sasterly winds. As usual, they were ex-
eaten by the native population,
both Mohsmmedan and Jewish.-Lon-

Judge Bradley Refuses an Injunction Asked
by . Property Owner.
In the case Of J. Harrison johnson against the
Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Company to
enjoin the defendant from using certain tracks,
switching cars, &C., on Maryland enue Judge
Bradley. In the Equity Court, yesterday dis
missed the bill with costs and the complainant
took an appeal. The bill was fled to enjoin the
company from using six tracks on Maryland
avenue between 7th and 9th streets and for the
removal Of four Of those tracks. The court
was asked to enjoin the company from switch
ing cars from the B street station down Mary
land avenue to 9th street and back on Virginia
avenue and shunting the cars across 7th street;
also to enjoin the use Of tracks on Maryland
avenue between 9Th and 9Th streets, on the
ground that the Baltimore and Potomac Com
pany had no right to use Maryland avenue ex-
cepting between 8th street and the Long bridge
and that the right to use steam power on Mary
land avenue between 9th and 9th streets had ex-
pired BY limitation-the act granting such au-
thority for twenty years being that Of 1866
and for the reason the act Of Congress gave the
Alexandria and Washington Railroad Company
the right to use steam on Maryland avenue only
for the purpose Of drawing its own cars.
The case was argued BY Messrs Shellabarger,
"isoh anu O. maouoA LOT inc Coupihluant
and Messrs. Walter d. Davidge and Enoch Tot
ten for the defendant.
The court decided that there was no such
limitation OF twenty years in the use Of steam.
for Congress had subsequently given the power
without limitation: that the shifting Of cars,
about which complaint was made, WAS reason
able, and 1t was not shown that the complainant
suffered any special annoyance, and according
to compliments testimony he had not been
disturbed BY the noise. and only occasionally
had the smoke or cinders entered his premises
The case will now 60 to the General Term.

Maryland and Virginia Delegates Meet to
Settle Difficulties.
At the joint meeting of the Maryland and
Virginia Legislators at the Ebbitt House in this
city yesterday, who are here to determine on a
plan for settling the matters in dispute between
the two states regarding the oyster fisheries and
the state boundaries in the Potomac and POGO
moke rivers the absence Of State Senator Stubs
Of Virginia prevented more than one matter,
that of securing a convenient culling law for
the Potomac river, being acted upon. Over this
there was very little dispute. Both the Mary
land and Virginia delegates were heartily agreed
upon the need of such q law and the only dis
cussion it brought about was over the "details Of
the bill framed.
Lieut.. Gov. Tyler Of Virginia presided and
Mr.. Chambers Of the same state presented the
report Of the joint subcommittee appointed to
draw up culipg law.
The committee on headlands adopted a re-
port on the Potomac, but the measure was
temporary compromise and each member re-
served the right to vote for or against the re-
port when it is submitted to the whole COM
mittee. The report adopted comedies the
matter in dispute to the Virginia delegation.
The committees report was read by Mr..
Chambers of Virginia, who made an argument
in its favor. Messrs. Waters and Ellegood
opposed it. A minority report will be prepared
and the matter taken up by the full committee
at todays session.
The subcommittee on the Pocomoke dispute
met. with Senator Hayes of Maryland presid-
ing. Senator Blackstone Of Virginia read the
report of the Virginia members of the commit
tee, denying absolutely the right of Maryland
to concurrent fishing rights in Pocomoke sound.
Senator Hayes presented Maryland's side Of
the case.
When both reports had been read the SUBJ
committee. realizing that they could not agree
upon either of them, decided to lay both reports
before the whole committee at it's meeting to-
day at the headquarters of the Virginia dele
gates METROPOLITAN Hotel
