AN ANONYMOUS LETTER.
Lieut.. Kelly Has Some Strong Views
ON the Subject.

Oh tAG SuDJCS"
The Commissioners recently received an
anonymous communication calling atten-
ton to, and protesting against. the num-
Der of saloons located between g and /.
I'd and North Capitol streets Clerk VIII
liams of the excise board sent the commu-
nication to Lieut.. Kelly Of the sixth pre-
cinct, with instructions to report which OF
the places mentioned in the protest were
worthy of license.
Lieut. Kelly is against anonymous COM
munications. and puts his views in the fol-
lowing letter:
II respectfully state that such anonymous
communications are not worthy Of con-
sideration. 1 would also state that several
Of those saloons and liquor stores are not
within the sixth precinct. and four OF
those enumerated in said protest have al
ready received their licenses by the approval
by the honorable Commissioners for the
present year. One other. named has gone
out Of the business.
My position as lieutenant Of police re-
quires that I shall act in all matters ap-
pertaining to my business in a fair and i'm
partial manner. / have no favorites among
this class Of persons. / am under no obli-
cations to any Of them. 1 have not the
right to grant any license. / therefore can
cants should be granted a license. Question
in the accompanying form applies direct
iy to what is required by law, and when
an applica ton for license comes to me for
investigation I will always endeavor to
make a fair and truthful report thereon.
In any case where 1t comes to my knowl-
edge that any applicant applying for a IL
cense does not conduct his place in an
thereto. certainly will not hesitate to say
so.''

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
NEW YORK, Nov 1.-THE opening of to-
days stock market was dull and irregular,
with yesterdays conditions still in force.
Traders wers disposed to cover on declines
and but little addition was made to the
snort interest except in one or two in
stances London was higher, though very
dull. and cable advices reported a complete
recovery from the unwarranted fears con-
corning the bad financiering on the part of
Bank of England officials in connection
with trust company operations. The bank s
loss, II any, will not be large.
Reading was sold freely during the fore
noon by Philadelphia interests, presumably
on Expert Titles report to the bondhold-
ers' committee. The stock was depressed
2 IL per cent to 20 before the pressure was
relieved and found considerable support at
the latter price.
The stock Of the American Tobacco Com
pany, which as a rule is entirely regulated
except by the specialists, was conspicuous
To-Day because of its weakness a net loss of
. IL per cent being recorded at midday.
Notwithstanding decrease of $i3 900 in
earnings for the second week this month
st. Paul was strong on good buying and
advanced ga of point from closing figures.
Inc market was inclined to drag through
out the session and offered but little en-
coura cement to operators on either side.
Inc lack or leader and the dearth of
news results in a speculative equilibrium
that Is liable to be destroyed the MON emit
either OF the above needs are supported.
the foreign exchange market was again
very buoyant and advanced IL per cent to
4S4a4S6 1-2. The demand from remitters is
increasing and for the period of the year
the supply Of bills is extremely limited
The closing hour was as void Of feature
as Its predecessors and prices were inclined
to yield whenever there was any activity
me dullness was trif1e more pronounced
than at any time during the Week There
was no demand for stocks that did moi
originate in the room and the supply came
from that source, making a narrow and
Improbable market Closing prices were
all trifle below the best for the day.

LATE NEWS BY WIRE.
5enator Voorhees, on the Democratic
Tariff Bill,
TO REACH THE SENATE THIS SESSION.
The Measure Not to Be Rushed
With Unnecessary Haste.
SILENT AS TO WA1I.

TERRE HAUTE. Ind, Nov. Ex-senator
Voorhees,. who is home for two weeks, be.
tween sessions of Congress. said to q United
Press reporter this morning, that he expect
ed the House would send the tariff bill to
the Senate before the holidays. The bill Is
now being prepared and the Senator is con-
fident the measure will not be delayed in
the House.
II will be referred to the committee on
finance. of which he Is chairman.
When asked II affected interests would be
given a hearing by the committee. Mr.Voor-
hees said that ample opportunity would be
afforded to all There would be no effort
to rush the measure recklessly. Undoubted-
ly there would be final action on the meas
ure at this session. 1t was imperative that
there should be no unnecessary delay.
The Senator expressed regret that there
should be frequent legislation on the tariff.
because 1t was hurtful to the Industrial
and business interests of the country. He
regards the tariff taxation, and believes
IT should be adjusted as to least dis
turb the business interests of the country.
The Senator was unwilling to express an
opinion on the Hawaiian situation. He
preferred to await the forthcoming report
TO Congress, which would give fuller infor-
nation than he now possesses. Assum-
Ing the facts to be as stated by Secretary
Gresham he Endorsed the action of the
administration.
The reported interview between himself
and Secretary Gresham, in which he is
alleged to have spoken of bad effect on
the party by the administration action, he
pronounced to be pure fiction. as he has not
seen Secretary Gresham since the Secre-
tary's report to the President was COM
pleted.
He also denied the report Of a sensational
Interview with the President after the re-
peal OF the purchase clause of the Sherman

ASSOCIATED CYCLING CLUBS.
A Meeting to Further Such an Organi
8atfOn Held.

4. HAS w uEsAcE SucA IN OEBWols
aatfOn Held.
Last night. at the residence of Mr.. E. C.
Bowen of the Arlington wheelmen, the
committees Of the various clubs appointed
to consider the question Of building a bi.
cycle race track. had a meeting. Those
present were Messrs. @. w. Cook, c. R.
Murray and r. G. Cloakey. Of the George
town Cycle Club: Geo. W. Bennett, and c.
]. Ronsaville Of the Washington Road
Club; r. c. Jones, G. B. Weiss and R. r.
Burr Of the Potomac Wheelmen.
1t was resolved to form a temporary or.
ganization with view to the ultimate Is.
adjustment Of an organization to be known
as the Associated Cycling Clubs of Wash.
inston. such organization to build and
control track for training and racing pur
poses.
Mr.. Bowen was elected president and
Mr.. Cook secretary OF the temporary organ
ization. and q committee Of four uo b.
added to as the various clubs Of the city
join in the movement at the discretion o,
the presdenO. Messrs. Bowen. Cook, JOSE
and Jones. appointed to inspect the avail
able sites for a track in and about the city
and to report at the next meeting.
1t was also resolved that the chairmer
of the various club committees report thS
formation of the association to their re
spective clubs and endeavor at the mex
meetings OF the CLUBS TO nave guarantee
fund established as a basis for the asso
ciated committees to work upon and t
report their success at the next meeting.
Several schemes were suggested, appar
emily the most favorable being to start &
popular subscription among the wheelmer
Of the city. by which it is believed that
good track can be built. and. without doubt
supported; track once having been estab
lished, the increased membership OF thu
clubs and. the additional interest which 9
good track would enthuse being considered
ample for the maintenance Of such track.
The movement must be pushed ahead
rapidly. as the building of track takes con.
siderable time, and the adoption Of various
materials for the surface will have to be
considered. To get at the best results
other clubs who have built tracks will be
asked for their opinions, and their expe
rience of the different surfaces will be OF
great benefit to the city organization. The
constitutions Of the associated clubs OF
Chicago, Baltimore and Philadelphia will
be discussed and the best possible points
taken as a basis for the Washington As.
ISOLATED Cycling Clubs.
The next meeting will be held December
20.

PRINCESS ANNE OF HOBOkEN
She Bids Farewell to the White House
Today.

Princess Anne of Hoboken, niece Of
Queen Victoria. who made fruitless en-
deavors to see the President on Wednes-
day and yesterday, paid her third and last
visit this morning. When she appeared at
the White House today and austerely de-
manded an audience with Mr.. Cleveland
the usher at the main entrance politely in
formed her that it would be impossible to
see the President unless the nature of her
business with him was known. The prin-
cess refused to give any information on
this point. and informed the usher that she
thought she had been treated very badly
Farewell" said her highness, II go, but
not to return. I will go back to Hoboken,
there to tell my people and my aunt's SUBJ
jects how l have been used"

the Democratic Members.

All the democrats of the ways and means
committee have returned to Washington in
response to an urgent call from the chair
man and they were at the Capitol today
expecting to have the bill which has been
prepared by the subcommittee. submitted
to them for revision. The subcommittee.
however, was at work. again revising the
proofs Of the bill. and 1t was announced
that the meeting of all the democrats would
not be held before tonight or tomorrow. The
call was so urgent for them to be here
today that Mr.. Cochran. who was in New
York with an important law case on hand,
dropped all his work to get here, and By
mum, who was out on cunning expedi-
ton, allowed numerous small game to es-
cape him in his haste to get back to Wash
ington. There was some little Impotence
over the fact of their being brought back
so hastily when there was no meeting to be
held today.
