BoRRowE's SCANDAL.
He Talks About 1t and About Mrs. Cole
man Drayton.

NEW YORK, March 25-The Drayton-
Borrowe story is still very much one-sided.
Mr.. Drayton has not yet given out his
half-promised statement to the public, aud
wien he was seen to-day he had not made
up his mind whether he would make a
public statement or not.
Hallett Alsop Borrowe is out in long in
terview i'm which he repudiates all crimi-
nal intimacy with Mrs. Drayton and
seems perfectly willing by his bold utter
ances, not only TO meet decisive issue
but 10 force IL IL necessary.
In spite of Coleman Drayton's reticepce
sympathy seems still to Ue entirely with
him. IL is a generally accredited fact that
a great influence has been brought to bear
upon him to keep silent until he may have
conferred at length with his counsel, both
legal aud friendly.
As for Hallett Burrowe. disapprobation
was shown for his conduct in most un
usual manner on board the Magcstic after
the news of the scandal got aboard, and as
he left the pier yesterday morning he was
hissed. There is no reason, so far as can
be learned, TO expect duel, at least not
tor some days.

Walter Burnham's face was radiant
with smiles as he jumped off the noon
train to-day. He had just returned from
Syracuse, wherehe had made a ten-strike
by getting Providence and New Haven
into the Eastern league after they had
been given one OF the coldest freeze-outs
on record. He was jubilant over his sue
cess, and declared that he was here In
Providence to stay now until the balance
of the s.. 900 is subscribed.

called for next Friday night for organiza-
ton, if can get rid of all the stock 10y

think OF the circuit Splendid, couldn'i
be better. Yes, Syracuse and Rochester
are all right 1 guess, but il don't make q
great deal Of difference whether they come
In or not. IL would be a strong league
without them, but, OF course, stronger
with them. 1 think they will have nc
trouble in getting there all right.
"Elmira and Binghampton are small
cities To be sure, but they have the strong
est backing of any clubs in the league
That is why they were admitted In place
of Providence and New Haven at the first
meeting. Everything Is all right now
and we will have plenty of good ball here

until we see what the result OF the con-

question was crowding the tariff issue
into the background. The tariff Is the
issue for the Democratic party 10 make
