NEW ORLEANS AND ST. LOUIS.
Yesterdays Races far Above the Av.
erage-Several Suoce ssful Plunges.

Yesterdays Races far Above the Av-
erage-Several Suoce ssful PlunRes.
Yesterdays races were far above the
average, and several successful plunges
were made at the Turf Exchange. "
Moses Solomon won the first race at New
Orleans by nose. He has won so often
by this margin that great many turf
followers think he must resemble his
namesake. The handicap was also fine
race, and at the finish three of the con-
testants were Sort heads apart. The
last race was also red-hot down the back
stretch, Silver Tip winning on the post
by head.
The St. Louis races were almost as
good as the New Orleans, and it required
the judges decision to place the horses.
To-day's New Orleans programme is a
fine one and excellent sport is assured.

The City and Suburban May Control
the Electric Railway.

the Electric Railway.
There is rumor that the situation in
street railway matters has changed, in
fact that they have made ''right-about-
face" and that the owners
Of the stock of the City and
Suburban are negotiating with the
Electric Railway Company looking to
buying the latter railroad. 1t is difficult
TO believe the rumor, for the reason that
1t would take a very large sum of ready
money to make the trade.
However Mr.. George Parsons, who is
virtually the owner of both the City and
Suburban and its leased line, the Savan-
nah, Thunderbolt and Isle of Hope rail
road, the old Coast Line railroad. does
not care for money when he makes up his
mind to do anything.
A few days ago there was a meeting of
the bondholders Of the City and Subur-
ban railway at which a request was made
of them 10 reduce the interest on the
bonds from 10 5 per cent. The
proposition met with a better reception
than 1t did when 1t was first made, about
eighteen months ago. 1t is understood.
however, that nothing definite came out
OF the conference, though it may lead to
compromise later on.
Those who have some knowledge of the
ahairs OF the City and Suburban railway,
think that II the bondholders don't mako
some concession they may kill the goose
that lays the golden egg" for
II Mr.. Parsons should buy the op-
position lines he could easily afford
to let the bondholders of the City and
Suburban railway take that road as
with the old Coast Line, the Belt Lines
and the Electric Railway Companv's
lines under his control he could run a
lively opposition to his old road and it
would not earn its running expenses. 1t
looks as though something viii soon hap
pen in street railroad matters.

The battalion viii assemble at the arsenal
in full uniform, at o'clock this morning.
1t will take the Electric railway cars at
Jones and Price streets for the Wheelmen' s
park, where the shoot will be held. The
Guards have heretofore held their annual
target practices at Greenwich, but on &C
count Of the greater convenience and
better railway facilities the range has
been changed to Wheelmen's park The
usual oyster roast will accompany the
shoot. There is a number of medals and
prizes to be contested for, and the shoot
is always an event of interest with the
battalion.
The Guards will leave the park for
Bonaventure cemetery in time to take
part in the exercises attending the I'M

Guards will then take the Electric rail
way cars back to the city.
A number of people left the

winds at night,

Mr. Bates was also heard in a trio Of
Curschmann's with Mrs Wickenb berg and
MISS Marie Lesesne Miss Lesesne has d
llght but telling soprano voice and always
gives decided pleasure because of the
very apparent earnestuess which inspires
everything she does and makes her audi
ence at times really feel more than the
singer has power to express with voice
alone. 1t is not out Of place 10 say that
tne front soprano row containing among
others, Mrs. Haynes, Miss Florence Cold
ing and Miss Lesesne, was a pillar of
strength to the whole chorus. Mrs.
haynes scored another success at the
matinee, and was particularly pleasing in
dellcately shaded presentation of Don
nlzettis 4 Sigh no More She was pre-
sented with an exquisite bunch Of white
roses bearing the compliments and thanks
OF the executive committee.
sAvANNAH's -FOUR HUNDRED.
The last, and one Of the chief features
of the matinee concert. was the appear
ance OF the children's chorus of400 voices,
selected from the public schools, and
representing about 400 pupils from
wnom the choice was made. Some
delay and confusion were caused by the
pouring rain which came on just as the
children were ready TO appear; but all
was finally arranged, and when Mr.. w
n. Smith, under whose training these
children have been for some time
past, appeared upon the stage the
large audience had fair
chance to judge of what has been done
m the way of setting the children on the
nigh road TO becoming future festival
chorus members.
Mr. Smith certainly had his 400 under
excellent control, and they sung their Sc
Iectlons with precision and with a marked
advance In tone quality over the chill
dreD chorus of the first festival. DR.
Palmer was called for, and to his sur
prise, was pelted by the children with
flowers; about bushel of which covered
the stage. The doctor made a little
speech, in which he warmly praised the
work In hand and urged the necessity in
continuing to cultivate the twig if the
'tree was to be inclined. Certainly the
chlldren's chorus would seem TO be the
natural reservoir from which to replenish
the future festival choruses, and the
singing of the 400 showed the results of a
thorough use by Mr.. Smith of the best
modern methods. II should be under
stood that nearly all of these childen
already read simple music at sight.
And thus the second annual musical
festival has come and gone. IL was a
great, an unqualified a magnificent sue
cess, and no one who watched it. or took
part either as chorister or auditor, who
does not glory in the good work. Merit
to whom merit is due. Let all who are
interested in the good of the city and her
successes, render thanks to Charles H.
Olmstead, j. A. Bates, Messrs. Dougan
and Connerat, and the many able seconds
who helped with voice, brain, muscle and
confidence.

THE NATAL1E's CAPTAIN.
General Manigat Says He Played a
Double Game

The last heard of Gen. Manigat's yacht,
the Natalie, was from Nassau, N. p. She
had just put in there, Feb. 10, under stress
Of weather, so the captain reported, but
according to Gen. Manigat's idea, the
captain of the vessel has BETRAYED
him and is playing game to
sell Mantgat into the hands of
the Haytisn government. At any rate,
according TO dispatches from Kingston,
Gen. Manigat will not trust himself on
board. He has sent instructions to his
supporters in Hayti to take up arms at
once and not to wait for his coming.
When the news reached Hayti that
Manigat had secured an armed vessel, it
naturally caused great excitement.
Especially was this the case in the sea-
port towns. In Jacmel, town where
Manigat once did some shooting under
Solomon, the greater part of the people
deserted, carrying their valuables to the
adjacent hills, where they camped out.
Whenever sail hove in sight, or a
steamers smoke was seen against the
horizon, all stores would be closed and
business suspended until it was known
what the ship was
Manigat's plan, had his ship not failed
him, was to land as near as possible to
Port au Prince. Once landed he intended
to push on without delay to the capital
and to storm the palace. The storming
OF the palace will now be pretty serious
piece of business, Hippolyte has erected
Notifications at all the entrances to the
palace and has mounted a dozen or more
new guns. He has employed a staff of

the cannon.
Gen. Manigat was interviewed by a
New York Herald correspondent at Kings
ton last week and gave the details of his
plan to become president of Hayti. The
general is disheartened beyond further
hopes of success. There is no use fight
ing against fate" he said, land l shall
give it up. Even if the Natalie does turn
up now, shall not leave Kingston"

RECEIVED A VULGAR POSTAL.
T. Sampson Looking for the Man Who
Insulted Him in Greek.

T. Sampson Looking for the Man Who
Insulted Him in Greek.
7, Sampson, who keeps a fruit store at
Barnard and Congress street lane, re-
ceiyed a postal card yesterday morning,
written in Greek and signed Peter PIANO.
Sampson was greatly surprised after
reading the postal to learn that it con-
tanned the most foul and vilest language.
The most astonishing part of it was
that the signature bore the name of Peter
PIANO, whom Mr.. Sampson was sure had
no hand in the affair. The postal alluded
in low terms to Mr. Simpsons family,
and he Immediately looked for Peter
Piano. Piano was equally surprised to see
the postal, and joined Mr.. Sampson in To-
eating the party who they thought was
responsible for its writing.
PIANO was quite positive he knew the
man and asked Sampson to accompany
him, and together they walked over to
Broughton street.
AS the two men reached the stand they
saw Culogeraco busily engaged in writing
on paper bag. The writing on the bag
and on the postal was to their minds, al
most identical, and Mr. Sampson at once
HAD the supposed culprit arrested.
At hearing before United States Com
missioner Beckett the charges preferred
by Sampson, 1t seems, were not sustained
and the case against Culogeraco was dis
missed
When Sampson was asked by a repre-
sentative of the MORNING News to trans
late the writing on the postal, he replied ::
II am unable to explain in English what
all these Greek words mean 1t is the
worst that l have ever seen in writing.
and l will secure lawyer to prosecute
the matter when : find the man who
sent it.
Sampson is still Of the opinion that
Culogeraco is the guilty party.

Nineteen thousand dollars and all sub
scribed at meeting held yesterday
afternoon is pretty good starter for the
Tybee railroad. 1t breaks away the
clouds of doubt that have been lingering
about the property since the Central rail
road pigeon-holed the matter and left it
with the bondholders of the road and the
property owners on the island.
Within the last few days those interest
ed in the matter have been unusually
active. The agitation of the matter and
the fact that the time is very short, if the
property is wanted for summer travel
have had their effect. Mayor McDonough
is warm advocate of Tybee, and he loves
to spend pleasant day there in summer
When he returned from New York he
saw that nothing lad been accomplished
and he, together with several of
the other bondholders, began to stir
the matter up. just before he went to
New York he sent an engineer down to
make survey of the property. A meet
ing was held to discuss the situation a
few nights ago at the De Soto.
RESULT OF THE MEETING YESTERDAY.
Quite large gathering of gentlemen in
terested in various ways in Tybee, some
as bondholders in the Savannah and At
lantic Railroad Company, and others as
property owners, met at the National
Bank of Savannah, yesterday afternoon,
and spent two hours in discussing the
question of raising subscriptions to the re-
ceivers' certificates with which to rebuild
the road.
After considerable discussion list was
handed round for names, and $4,000 was
subscribed as follows:

Bill Gadson, well-known crook around
Savannah up to about year ago, was
captured yesterday at Beaufort, S. c., on
information sent to the authorities there
by Detective Morgan. Notification of his
arrest was received here shortly after he
was caught.
Gadson was wanted for stealing a lot of
barrels from Mr. C. G. Beebe last sum

he would go to Mr.. Beebes landing about
two miles up the river, in a small sloop
and take the barrels away few at a

which he escaped, another given a twelve
months sentence on the gang. and now

look here, Simpkins, said the
city editor sternly as the new re-
porter stood qualzing at his desk,

Paaer Spindies.

The introduction Of paper spindles
for yarn spinning, thus avoiding the
objection to the great weight of steel
as heretofore used, is said to have
proved decided advantage, and the
process Of manufacture is described
as follows: A quantity of common
pulp stock is run into molds the shape
of a spindle, no attention being given
to the whirl at this stage, and the
cast Of the molds is such that spin
die is produced about four times the
required size in diameter.
In the process of hardening the
soft, fabby spindle is placedin aeon
press, as it is termed-a sort of hy-
draulic device in which force pump
is employed to give an enormous
pressure. The spindle is placed sin
ely in Q peculiar shell arrangement,
SO made that, by revolving certain
screws in the side compress upon the
spindle from all sides, the latter is
squeezed into a compartment about
one-quarter its original size. The
hydraulic power is used in making
the apparatus turn, which gives mo.
ton to the numerous screws. When
compression of the spindle is COM
pleted, a perfectly formed, hard,
tough, substantial one is produced,
and when dried and polished the sur
face is said to be as hard as metal.
The whirls are next made. Again
the molds are used, and the same
method Of COMPRISING is applied,
the result being whirls of great
strength and firmness. New York
