VOTERS GETTING ON THE ROLLS.
Approach of Election Causes Registra-
tion tn Take n squirt.

With the increase OF interest in politics
voters are paying closer attention to regis
tration. and City Clerk Stewart is now
registering from twenty to twenty-five
daily. The books will be open until twenty
days before the election-that is. until Oc-
tooer l6-and there is ample time for all
who have not already registered this year
20 get on the rolls, but that is no reason
for putting IL OIL till the last day, as many
persons did at the city election last spring.
Those who have already registered in 1894.
and have not changed their residence from
one precinct TO another. are not required
To register again. rs they are on the regis
ter for the whole year. Those who have
moved into a different precinct should
have the change made on the rolls.
According to the provisions Of Hills
Code. volume I. section a6s. registration
Is a requisite for voting at she primaries.
when they are held under the primary
election Law. This Law says that the com
mittee of the party shall prescribe the
qualifications OF the persons TO vote at the
primary in addition TO the qualifications
required by Law for legal voters. As regis
tration is qualification for legal voter.
this is taken by some lawyers To mean that
only qualified voters can vote at the Re-
publican primary election. Natnralized
citizens are requested To show their certih-
Gates of naturalization on presenting
themselves for registration.

GOSSIP OF THE TURF.

The great special race between Domi-
no, Henry of Navarro and clifford, to
take place AT Morris Park next Saturday
is, of course, the absorbing topic among
turfman at present. and speculation as
to the chances of the horses has already
begun. The race itself will be one of the
greatest OF the decade. as these three
are undoubtedly the best horses now
in training. They will meet on even
terms all carrying weight for age. elf
ford Will shoulder l22 pounds, while
Domino and Henry Of Navarro viii each
pick up III pounds. At present Clifford
is in grand shape, as his last two races
prove, and the distance. a mile and a
turlung, will suit him. Domino is also
In me fettle, and Byron McClelland says
his wonderful colt was never better.
Taral will pilot the son of Himyar
pOggCtt viii have the leg on Henry OF
Navarro, while Sims has been engaged
to ride Clifford, Hundreds OF thousands
OF dollars will be wagered on the event,
and horscmon from all over the count ry
Will be present to witness the struggle.
The movements OF the horses from now
on will be watched eagerly. Riley
Grannon will undoubtedly be on from
the West to make a book on the race,
and the big bettors will again have a
chance 20 invest $4,000 at a crack.

TO TRAP A CAPTAIN.
Jared FInpg Says That's what
pnrlshurst wanted Him to DO.

Police Capt. John J. Donohue. of the
West Twentieth street station, en-
phatically denies that he attempted to
blaCkmail, and pronounccs as unquali-
ncdly false the affidavit to that effect
made by Jared w. Flagg, the real es-
tate man. of 2i2 West Twenty-third
street.
The Rev. J. A. Is. Wilson, OF the
Eighteenth street Presbyterian Church,
read from the pulpit yesterday an aiIi-
davit by MIR. Flagg. in which he stated
that Police Capt. Donohue demanded
from him last week 800 month, in
return for which he would protect him
in leasing apartments to women for
immoral purposes.
Mr. FlagE was seen by an Evening
World" reporter at his office to-day, and
reiterated his charge against the Police
Captain He said the demand was made
by the Captain in IL back room of Ken

Mr.. Flagg claims that few days
after his refusal to pay the money he
was arrested by ,Donohue, and when he
attempted to relate in court how the
Captain tried to blackmail him, he was
shut up by Justice Mcmahon.
capt Donohue acknowledged that he
went to the restaurant with Flagg, but
declares there was nothing said about
money. He had arrested two of Flagg
tenants and went to him to notify him
that ne must dispOssess all tenants of
a questionable character. Flagg prom
ised to do so and they walked out to-
gether. and as they passed the rcstau-
rant FlHgg invited him in for luncheon.
Flagg did not keep his word about drv-

and he procured a summons for him.
