SENT AGAINST HIS RECORD
THE sESslTI0NAL PAGER DID NOT
 REACH HIS MARK. m

Robert J. Made Mile at tho Point Breose
 Track in Four and Onc-Haif Seconds
 Slower Than His Famous Tims-He and
 Gontry in Race.
 Philadelphia, Nov. s.-Robert J.,whose acing mark, 2:ol 1-2. Is the sensation or the year, was sent against his record to- day at the Point Breeze track. but the best he could do was 2.oe. Prior to the trial Robert J. me, John R. Gentry. 2:03 3-4. in match for a purse Of $2,000. Robert J. won two heats rather easily in 2os and 2:12 1-2, and ther Gentry was drawn because of cut on his foreleg, which injury has bothered the stallion more or less all season.
 The fact that the strings of Monroe Salisbury, c. J. Hamlin and M. E. Mo- Henry were to compete attracted S.00c persons to the track. The first race was the 2:0s trot. with Azote, POS l-2, Phoebe wilkes, 2:0s 1-2, and Nightingale 2:10 1-2 as starters. Phoebe Wilkes was the choice of the talent. Azote took the lead at the start in the first heat and led drought, winning by five lengths from Nightingale, with favorite six lengths behind. The second and third heats were repetition of the first, SC far as Azote was concerned, but the others arternated in finishing second and third. After the first heat Azote was the favorite.
 The easy manner in which the Sails. bury gelding beat his field caused a cessation of pool selling after the sec. ond heat. The pacing cracks appeared at o'clock and both were iberally ap. plauded. Geers was behind Robert J and McHenry drov ientry. The horses got away on the second score and Gen try took the lead. At the quarter pole Gentry was half a length to the good but when Robert ]. drew up and thu pair together at the half. at which point the gelding led by a heat. In the next quarter Robert J. increased his lead to a length, and on the stretch he made the gap wider, winning by three lengths in 2:0s. The time by quarters was: 32 1-2, 1:13 1-2, 1:S4, 2:0S The pools prior to this heat sold al $25 for Robert J. and $10 for Gentry In the second and last heat Gentry was not a factor, Robert J. winnig in 6 walk by six full lengths, in 2:12 1-2. After the first heat Robert J. brought $25 in the pools against $6 for Gentry. When Gentry had been drawn Rober J. was sent g mile with 8 runner, Geer. driving the pacer and McDowell guid l ing the mate. The pact..y g. champion went good mile. and his time. 20s beats the track record of 2:0s5 whlc, was recently made by Mascot in ract against GaTadin. A strong wind wa: blowing down the track, and this wa. an interference. The time by quarters was 31 3-4, 1:o3 1-2, 1:s4 1-2, 2:0s. There were eight starters in the 2I! trotting class, which vas won by Gratz in straight heats. During the afternoon Monroe Salisbury sent Flying Jib and runner. the pair hitched together, g a mile in 2:O6 IA.
 Tomorrow Alix win go against hel record of 2:03 3-4: Fantasy, the fastest four-year-old trotter, will endeavor tt beat her mark of 2:06, and Directly, the champion two-year-old pacer, will try to lower his record of 2:07 3-4.

REV. DIR. LAKEWOOD RESIGNS
HE SENDS a LETTER ASSIGNING .fS
 RECTOR OF TRINITY CHURCH,

Received by the vostry Last Night-A
 Parish Meeting Called for Next Friday
 EvcninE-Dr. Harwood's Long and Bril-
 liant Psstoratc.
 Rev. Dr. Harwood, for thirty-six year6 rector of Trinity Episcopal church. ten- dered to the vestry of that church his resignation last evening. This step Is not altogether surprise to members Of the church. as the doctor has cons tmplated this move for e long time, as he has passed the allotted threescore and ten years and his health is not of the best, although he has lost none of his pulpit power and eloquence. Tha vestry has called meeting to be held on Friday evening of next week at which action will be taken on his resig- nation and as to the appointment of d successor.
 Dr. Harwood, 1t Is understood, haa arrived at this decision only after much thought on the matter and Is firm in his intention.
 This news will cause much regret in the parish where he has passed SO many of the best years of his life He ranks among the ablest scholars and preach- CTS of the denomination, and his name Is we'll known not only in this state, but also throughout the whole coun- try. His sermons are all fine literary specimens and have won him distin- guished honors. i.
 In the 142 years of the history o6 Trinity church there have been only four rectors. one of whom, Rev. Henry Whitlock, served only eighteen months, so that the terms of the remaining three-Rev. Belah Hubbard, Rev. Dr.. Harry Croswell and Cr. Harwood-- cover nearly all of that long period. Rev. Henry Whitlock died after serve ing about eighteen months. at Fays etteville, N. c.

 The hearing on >,ro ystition of the New Haven Street Arg yay company for permission to lay tngle track with turnouts and sw. ss along Townsend avenue in the ,s nnex. at the office Of the selectmen last evening. was numerously attended in the pro- Interest was manifested in the pro- ceedings. The railroad company was represented by President Corey. secre- tary Dodge And Attorney s. Harrison Wagner. These gentlemen stated to the selectnen that the road was pub lie necessity and that fully nine-tenths of the property owners of Townsend avenue had signed the petition. They also agreed to leave the roadbed In better condition than 1t was at pres ent..
 Among the property owners who were present to favor the granting of the petition. were: F. W. Chattert6n, Lucas c. Porter. William Roberts, A. L. Fabrique, E. T. Street, B. P. Blen- ner. A. E. Plant, Michael Moran, E.. 8. Burwell, W. B. Thorpe, F. A. Wood ward, A: M. Gates, George D. Gran miss, Thomas Long. James Hines, Charles E. Woodward, E. B. Wood ward. James Steele, Henry N. Riley, John Johnson. E. J. Morse. A. H. Thompson and about twenty others
 The petition was strenuously op- posed by Franck 0. Bushnell, c. C.. Kimberly, John Rowe, L. Wheeler Beecher, Colonel s. B. Fox and Will liam Sullivan. They claimed that there was no necessity for track on Townsend avenue. owing to the prox- imity of a track on neighboring street and that as good driveways were scarcity in the vicinity of the city, Townsend avenue should be re- served for driving purposes. William A. Harris also opposed the granting of the petition on substantially the same grounds.
 Finally after lengthy meeting the selectmen in executive session gave the petitioners leave to withdraw.

A Large Republican Rally Held Last Eyeu-
 ing.

Large Republican Rally Held Last EyeuI
 ing.
 That the republicans of the Ninth and Tenth wards are in the game fon business was shown by the enthusiastic rally last evening in the Masonic hall on Webster street. The hall was pack- ed and all the good points of the speak, CTS were vooiferously endorsed by tha most enthusiastic applause. Lyman H. Johnson, chairman of the ward com- mittee, was unable to be present, and George H Loveland was tappUinted chairman of the meeting. The principal speaker of the evening was Alderman Reyes of the Tenth ward. He touched chiefly upon nations al issues. saying that the state issues even in this campaign are secondary and are really involved in the greater ones which affect the whole country, Mir. Reyes asserted that President Cleveland himself doubted, when ha came to the head of the government. the ability of the democratic party to administer the government of the na. tion and so came into the republican, ranks for his chief lieutenant. When James G. Blaine was at the head of the state department his policy commanded the respect not only of his own coun- trymen, but that of every civilized na- tion on the earth, while on the othen hand, with the inauguration of the democratic power came the disgraceful Hawaiian policy. which made our gov. ernment the laughing stock of the world. Until Cleveland was elected oun industries were in thtriJing condi. tion, but immediately upon t;ie access sion of democratic lnisrule thc-e Was d trembling at the foundations of the country like an earthquake, and bust. ness tumbled into chaos and .onfusions Their inability to rule the, country has been shown to them, and 1t is now time to repair as much as possible the great damage done. The speaker also touch- ed upon other questions at issue and highly lauded the republican nominees.
 Other speakers were MT. Frederick Orr, Samuel Lochman, Livingston W, Cleaveland, candidate for judge of pros bate, and Richard H. Tyner, all od whom presented the political situations in a very comprehensive manner Dur ing the intervals between the different speakers some very nice music was dis- coursed by the Star-Joker Mandolin club. ,

MELBA AT THE HYPERION.
The Grand operatio Concert Last Evening
 ALarge and Brilliant Audience.

The Grand Operatic Concert Last Evening ALarge and Brilliant Audience.
 A large audience was present at the Hyperion last evening to hear Mime. Melba, assisted by number oS New York artists, in an oeratic concert. The entrance of Malba was the signal for an outburst of applause. Her first number, "Ah, Forse Lui." for Verdfs "Tra- viata," was well rendered. s'rtough in this number she seemed to possess no warmth or pathos But in the valse, "Se saran Rose," by Arditi. her voice broke forth from It's prev'ous-seeming letters, full of fire, love and feelings So deafen- | ing was the applause that Melba Was obliged to repeat this number before hel listeners would be pacified. In Hadeps Sweet Bird" the true value of her re- markable powers of vocalization were brought forth. The difficult thrills, ca dencas, and staccato passages were most marvellous to listen to. and the range and power of her voice seemed to have no limit. No sooner had she fin- ished this number than the most thun- dering plaudtts broke forth from her ap- preciative listeners. She responded with a most touching rendition of "Swanee River" Melba more than satisfied her listeners, and 1t Is safe to say that she possesses one of the grandest operatic soprano voices ever heard in this coun- try. Sharing equally the honors of the ev- ening was M. Plancon, the renowned French basso. His selections, "Au Brint," by Gounod, and "The Two Gren- adiers," Schumann, were elegantly ren- dered. In the latter number the true French spirit showed itself, and in the most fiery and patriotic style. M. Plan- con sang Schumann's ballad in man. ner which the author meant 1t should be sung. Bravo" after "bravo" rang from every nook of the Hyperion, and like a true artist M. Plancon graciously re- reated the same. Mime. Scalchi, the well known contrafto has lost none of her magnetic powers which lay in her voice. She won a warm place in every
 
 sing. In response to an encore, after the rendition of an aria from Gluck' s "Orfoe," she sang the "Gavotte" from "Mignon" in a most captivating man. ner. M. Mangulere, the tenor, in bar carolle from Era Diavolo," was very unsatisfactory, but in the role of Faust" he was acceptable. The or chestra, under the direction of Signor Bevignani, played with good style and taste. rendering the accompaniments for the vocalists in excellent ms nner, The fifth act of Faust" was admira- bly, given by Melba, N. Plancon and M, Manguiere, but some little hitch" in dropping the curtain caused some un- certainty to the audience whether the act was finished or not. The piano solo of Miss Gertrude Betz was not worthy of mention.

Senator Brice Gives His Opinion on the
 Presidents In1iaence.
 Cincinnati, Nov. 2.-Senator Calvin &. Brice said here to-day:
 1T am pretty safe in the assertion that the city of New York will give Hill a majority of 6o.000. Morton will come down from the state with a majority of 40,0OO, which will elect Hill by 10000.
 The reruhlHcans are claiming that Morton will come down with S0,0o0. which will beat Hill 10000, but, of course, they will have no such vote.''
 When asked as to what would be the effect of President Cleveland's influence MT. Brice replied:
 None whatever. Cleveland has no in- iuence, and it does not matter whether he is silent or not. Tammany Is un- shaken and will be victorious in the present fight"

Very Gratifying Practice Done Yesterday
 The Brilliant Playing.
 The practice at the field yesterday was one of the most successful of the season, as 1t was also the last secret practice beginning Monday. The chief features yesterday were the brilliant playing of Hinkey, Butterworth and Wade, the new half-back. An especial ly brilliant end rush was made by Hin- key, who aroused the spectators to a high pitch of enthusiasm by leaping over one of the tackles in the same manner az at the last Springfield game. Wade '96, who was taken to the training table last week, is one of the most promising of ,Yale's football men. The only fault which mars his playing Is his high and ineffectual tackling. The chief fault of the team as a whole seems to be the fumbling when the ball is kicked. X. X.
 The team will play Brown this after noon at Providence, Yale's men lining up as follows: [. Hinkey, right endj Murphy, right tackle; w. 0. Hickok, right guard; stialman, center; McCrea, left guard; Beard, left tackle; E. A. Hinkey, left end; Adee, quarter back; Mills, half f-back; Thorne, half-back; Butterworth, full-back.
