CONFEDERATE CAMP AT MANASSAS, VA.
1t is apparent from the records that both
Pope and the government not only desired to
successfully effect this object but at the same
time hold as advanced ground as possible
toward Richmond. and menacing the confed-
crate lines OF communication in the direction
of GordOnsville and Charlottesville. Pope's
campaign as a whole cannot be fairly judged
without remembering this fact. On the 18th
Haileek telegraphed to Pope to ''stand firm on
the Rappahannock till | can help you Fight
hard and aid will come" On the l4th 5000 of
Burnsde's troops from North Carolina had
already joined Pope, and McClellan's army was
landing at Acquia and Alexandria. He was
naturally encouraged by these facts and Hal
leck assurances.
SO. if mere concentration was the sole object
all Gen. Pope had to do was simply to retire
behind Bull Run and the OBJECT was accom-
plished. But Lincoln. Stanton and Halleck
evidently had confidence that the concentra-
ton could be safely effected much farther to
the southwark, If time could be gained BY
maneuvering. and hence on their advice the
tenacity with which Pope held the lines first of
the Rapidan and then the Rappahannock And
while he doubtless would have succeeded mad
McClol!an's troops been pushed forward more
rapidly. 1t is perfectly clear to the world now
that nothing was to be gained by it. and that
after a reasonable resistance o., the Rappahan-
mock he should have drawn back behind Bull
run, or perhaps toward fredericksburg, to
meet the Army Of the Potomac.

Testimonial Benefit to Miss Kate ela.sford

An event of more than usual interest to
the theatre-goers of this vicinity will be
the testimonial benefit rendered to Miss
Kate Glassford, the popular leading lady
of one of Manager George r.. Lothrop's
stock companies, at the Providence Mu-
scum tomorrow afternoon and evening.
Miss Glassford comes of a theatrical fami-
ly, her father, Andrew Glassford. being
we'll known throughout the country in
connection with several of the leading
companies. in the profession, the past sea
son he being member of the Midnight
Alarm company" Her sister. Eliza
Gregory, has been with Frohmans
"Charity Ball company" for several sea-
sons, while her brother. Walter
Adrian, is at present with Kate Clax-
ton. Miss Glassford can almost be
said TO have been born on the stage as
she made her debut when but a mere in
fant in swaddling clothing. Her early
years were passed in acquiring an educa-
tion and appearing in child's parts ut the
theatres where her parents were employed.
From childhood she showed marked
qualifications for theatrical life and her
advancement was rapid. She has been
successfully member of companies sup
porting such shining lights of the theatri-
cal world as Edwin Booth, Thomas
Keene, Lillian Olcott, Kate Claxton and
others. AS an emotional actress her abili-
ties are more discernable, the strength
and energy of her Southern blood assert
ing itself in the thrill and cadence of her
lines The conscientious study of her
part. the taste displayed I'm her costumes,
her utter abandon of self in the require
ments of her roles and her pleasing ways
are all proofs of her adept stagecraft.
The drama which has been selected as
the principal feature of the benefit attrac-
ton is the famous military romance "A
Celebrated Case" and on this occasion the
beneficiary will appear in the difficult
role Of Adrienne, supported by j. Francis
Kirke, J. Gordon Edwards and the full
strength of the stock company. In ad-
dition 20 this host of volunteers will ap-

CLEVELAND HASBOSTON.
Last Nights Caucuses Like the Dutch
Taking Holland.
BUT TWO WARDS AGAINST HIM,
How the state Delegates slate Looked
IL Is Now stated That Gov. Russell
wiz Not Go to Chicago In Any Ca
nacity.

BOSTON, March 2i.-The Boston Demo-
cratic caucuses, for the purpose OF electing
delegates to the State Convention, to be
holden for the selection OF four delegates
st large and four alternates to the Nation
n Democratic Convention, were held last
pipht. The voters of Ward % also elected
delegates to the Congressional District
Convention, to select two district dele
gates and two aiternates to the National
Democratic Convention.
IL was a case OF the Dutch taking Hol-
land. AS predicted by John III. Melon
ough, chairman of the Democratic Ward
and City Committee, Cleveland practi-
cslly swept the city.
There were, however, some instances OF
opposition. One was In Ward and
another was In Ward l3.
In the latter wards Alderman Leary
heads the delegation, and on motion OF
Nr. William II. Woods the causus voted
20 instruct the delegates to vote for Dav-
ID B. Hill delegates at the State Conven-
tion. The ticket, the only one at the eau
Gus, is q "Tammany Club" delegation.
In Ward q Cleveland In given as the
6rst and Hill an the second choice. In
Ward z, Cleveland first; "any man who
can win," second. Many of the delegates
refused to express any preference. In
Ward le Congressman 0'Neil and Coun-
oilor James Donovan head the delegation
Hon. Patrick Mcguire is one of the Wnrd
10 delegates.
These three men are personally anti
Cleveland men. There will, however
psobably be no opposition in the Stat,
convention to sending q solid Clevelant
delegation to Chicago. Just who th'
four delegates at large will be is yet lit
Gle uncertain. 1t Ii now stated that Gov
Russell will not 60 to the Chicago con
vention in any capacity, either as dele
gate or the guest Of the delegation.
The slate now looks about like this

WHO Is THE OLD MANI
He Fell Into n Cellar on Claverick Street
and Was Killed.

He Fell Into n Cellar on Claverick Street
and Was Killed.
The body of the unknown man, discov-
cred at the foot Of the cellar steps in the
house in the rear OF Claverick street by
Daniel Calvin yesterday afternoon, has as
vet not been identified and is still at the
morgue awaiting claimants. The body
was discovered shortly after O'Clock and
the police were immediately notified.
Medical Examiner Palmer was called and
after viewing the remains ordered them
conveyed TO the morgue.
From the position of the body when
found It is supposed that the man slipped
i'm the cellar-way and striking the back of
his head against one of the stone steps in
flicted q severe cash on the scalp. The
shock and loss of blood probably caused
his death.
The man was about go years of age and
was about five feet, seven inches in height,
weighing probably $50 pounds. His hair
is gray, and the face was adorned with
long chin whiskers, also gray. The man ;
clothing was well worn and he had every
appearance of having been laborer. n
silver dollar and jack-knife was all that
was found in his pockets.
The man is unknown TO any OF the
neignbors in that vicinity. although Mrs.
Willard Chace close by thinks she saw the
old man going through Claverick street
several times recently.

IN SPORTING CIRCLES.
Bobby Burns Defeated Marcellus
Baker in One Round.
EASTERN LEAGUE MEETING,
The Olympic Club Trying TO Arrange a
Match Between Brooklyn Jimmy Car
roll and Alex Greggains-Thc seer Sold
for $40, ,O0o-Current Sporting Gossip.

II was all over In minute and fifteen
seconds. Marcellus Baker the erstwhile
fighter, fell under the storm of blows
rained upon him by Bobby Burns, and
the latter won the easiest victory IL mas
even been his lot to win, ana jumped the
ropes after il was over unscratched and as
fresh as daisy.
Burns sailed right in from the start,
and Baker was sent down rs fast as he
could get on his feet. Finally he went
onto the ropes in a semi-conscious condi-
tion and made but feeble effort to get on
on his feet while the ten seconds were
being counted. He was dazed somewhat,
but he could have got on his feet had he
been very desirous so TO do, but appar-
emily realized the hopeless task In front
of him and so quit, just like the common,
everyday cur.
IL was quick and unfortunate ending
from sporting point OF view, TO con
test which was rank in the extreme. The
contract that Burns had undertaken was
10 stop" him in ten rounds. III 1t had
taken him half that time 90 accomplish
his task the crowd would have been salts
fed, but as IL was the audience was dis
gusted.
Previous to the main event there were
three-round set-tos between Joe Eaton
and Jack Slavin, Gleason and Smithers,
Ned Burns and Cliff Gordon.
The Eastern League is in convention at
Syracuse to-day and unless something
unforeseen happens Providence and New

Burnham has worked hard for this result
and to him alone is due the credit OF
giving this city and New Haven baseball
for the season of 1892. He is n dead game

first began to agitate the question here, he
always accomplished what he undertakes
in the baseball line.
