The Situation n, the ". 4. c.

The members OF the Manhattan Athletic
Club have one moro chance to save the club.
and that will be at to-night's meeting. As
stated in yesterdays Sun. the house will be
closed on Monday. The reasons for that are
explained by Receiver Freedman.
He has reduced the exp ense OF running the
club from So 900 to $4,000 q month: still the
club was kept open at a loss. Last Monday
the Ways and Means Committee asked that
the house be kept open for another week. and
stated that II they could not put the organiza-
ton on it's feet by the. succeeding Monday
they could not do 20 at all.
Mr.. Freedman acceded to the request. and
himself personally liable. The house will
positively be shut up Monday. and unless the

Facts About the Coming Meeting mt Ivy City.
The information sent from Washington con-
corning the new race course at Ivy City Is not
particularly authentic. 1t has been announced
that James Rowe would act as starter and
that Senator Blackburn Of kentucky would be
the presiding Judge.
Mr.. Rowe. who is at Hot Springs with his
family. will not start the horses at Ivy City.
but 1t is probable that James Mclaughlin. who
distinguished himself at Roby last fall. will
handle the flag. A number Of names have
haaN n aI IL n III laa
but Mclaughlin Will probably be the man Sc
lected.
1t would not surprise those whoare on the
inside to find Major Wheeler. who is the Judge
at Brighton Beach. In tho stand at Ivy City on
the 18th inst. and there were rumors up town
last evening that Mr.. c. c. Pettus will be sue
