BRITAIN'S ATHLETES HERE
THEY ARRIVED IN NEW YORK ON
 THE AURANIA YESTERDAY.

All of the Men Were in Fine Health-A Formal R. reception Given Them at the Murray Hill Hotel-To-day Those Men Who VIII Contest With Yale's Athletes Win Come to New Haven
 New York, Sept. 4,-On the Aurania, which arrived this afternoon, were the athletes from Cambridge and the Lon don Athletic club, who have come to contest for international honors with the teams of Yale college and the New York Athletic club. All are In fine health.
 Godfrey Shaw, the famous hurdler. who will captain the London team, said: Tt is too soon yet to speak of our chances, Wait until we see what the climate will do. The hammer, weight and high jump are forgone conclusion for the N. Y. A. C., but am not as sure they will have things so much their own way in the broad jump. Mendelson is splendid natural jumper and his rec ord of 22 feet 51a inches at the Cam bridge-Oxford sports Is by no means his limit
 Mir. Shaw also said: 'I found that in the clear and rarefied air of Australia I could do better time and run easier than ever did in England. A week ought to be sufficient to show whether we will improve or otherwise"
 The captain, with the rest of the team, expressed great regret at the inability of E. c. Bredin, F. E. Bacon and J. M. Ryan to accompany the team. Regi- nald Williams, member of the L. A. C., when questioned as to the alleged dissensions in the L. A. c. as to the per- sonnel of the team, said he knew noth- ing of 1t.
 The absence of Bredin, Bacon and Ry-
 will be severely felt, but even with It these champions it is doubtful if a grander lot of amateur athletes ever left the shores of Great Britain or of any other country.
 The teams were met by committees from the N VA. c. and Yale and were driven to the Murray Hill, where for maj reception was held.
 Tomorrow the Cantabs will go to New Haven and the L. A. c. will commence training at Travers Island. The l.. A. c. brought over their own trainer, Jack White.

 Reached New York Last Evening--Win Come to New Haven To-day-London Athletic Club Men Coming Also-A stormy Passage Over-Men in Good
 Health.
 A Journal and Courier correspondent who was on the Aurania which arrived in New York last evening with the Cambridge athletes aboard says in a special to the Courier this morning: '"The Cambridge university athletic team which will compete with Yale on October on Manhattan field, left Liv- erpool August 27 by the Cunard steam CT Aurania. The passage over was very disagreeable, with rain and high winds, so the boys did nothing at all in the way of exercise, but all were good sailors, and are as fine and gen. tlemanly a lot of young men as one could wish to see. They are well built strong, muscular chaps and no doubt will give the Yale men good chance to show their muscle. The following are the names of the men: F. s. Horom president; w. E. Labyens, vice presi- dent; W. Fitzhubert, G. Gomer-Wil- Hams, W. J. Oakley, F. H. Wilding, c. H. Levin, l.. E. Pilkington, William Fletcher, E. J. Watson, A. B. Johnston, F. M. Jennings, H. J. Davenport, J. Mendelson and Henry Becks, business manager.
 The London Athletic team also came oxya,. oy 60 p,a sfa y,,ay nd fbav will go to New Haven with the Cambridge team and then will meet the members of the New York Athletic club and a series of contests will be arranged.
 Following are the names of the Lon don team; Godfrey Shaw, Reginald Will Hams, J. Robertson, c. A. Brodley, C.. P Downer, G. Jordan and Montague Shearman, manager.
 The two teams remained over night in New York and will go on to New Haven tomorrow"
 Herman B. Swezey and James R. Scott were thes only New Haven people aboard the Aurania.
 It was expected that the Cambridge athletes would arrive in New Haven yesterday, but the steamer did not ar rive as expected.
 The Englishmen will surely be here to-day. They will have rooms on the first, second and fourth floors of Hotel Majestic, while the special dining Eoom for the training table is on the first floor at the left of the main corridor, and just in front of the regular dining room. Parlors sare also reserved for the athletes.

 In connection with the matter of lenders, however, Mayor HendriclS says that the selection of car lenders is entirely out of the hands of the court of common council and that the railroad commissioners have sole and exclusive jurisdiction with respect to ordering such lenders upon any street railway car In support of his position he cites chapter 221 of the public acts, An act providing for guard rails and lenders for street railway" which was approved June 26, 1895, and became operative upon it's passage.

HIS NEW FIELD.
Good Words for Rev. Father slocum.

Good Words for Rev. Father Slocum.
 The many New Haven friends of Rev. Father Slocum, for the past twelve years of Norwalk, but previously for some years assistant at St. Patrick's, this city, will be pleased to read the following concerning this genial and ir- fiuential priest from the Waterbury
 American of yesterday:
 The Rev. William J. Slocum, who suc-
 ceeds the Very Rev. J. A. Mulcahy as pastor of the Church of the Immaculate
 Conception, arrived in this city this
 morning and is overlooking his new field.
 Father Slocum is a tall, handsome
 man, with a dignified bearing and geni
 al ,countenance. He is a man of fully 200 pounds in weight and proportionate-
 ly built. He is forty-four, with young face and white hair.
 In an interview with an American re- porter this afternoon he said that he was very favorably impressed with Wa terbury.
 Father SlOcum has a way of meeting ones glance that does not disconcert or embarrass, but rather wins the atten- ton of his hearers. His voice is musical and low and pleasant to the ear. T intend to make a permanent remov- al early next week. This is only a short visit. I leave tomorrow for Hartford understand that the newspapers hold Father Mulcahy in high esteem. I will try to folloW in his footsteps in this as in other things" Here Father Slocum smiled at the vicar general, and the reporter saw him in a new light, fol with his smile his whole countenance seemed to light up and his dark eyes gleamed with merriment. Father MulcaIhy at this point objected to having himself used as the unit upor which to base Father Slocum's quail. | ties.
 Father Slocum has been to the two Catholic cemeteries and St. Mary's school. He shook the reporters hand al parting in the most approved American manner.
 It was a good, warm, hearty clasp.

 New York, Sept. An addition to scraping and sandpapering Valkyries hull to-day planes were used aft just at the water line, and it was plain that an attempt to decrease the load water line was being made.

doubt of Colonel Bouquet stands today
as it stood 1870 years ago. To the Pitts
burg chapter of the Daughters of the
Revolution we are indebted for it's res
toration. 1t has been owned by them
since 1888. Until that year the old
redoubt of Bouquet, as it is called, was
occupied as tenant house, and within
its walls was born Pittsburg's local his

FORTUNE IN BLACK DlAMoNDa
value Of the Thousands Of Tons Of Cool q
Perth and South Amboy.

value Of the Thousands Of Tons Of Cool @
Perth and South Amboy.
Thousands Of tons Of coal are shipped
from the ports Of Perth and South Am.
boy, at the mouth Of the Raritan river,
every month. It is loaded in vessels for
all points along the Atlantic seaboard
and many European ports. The coal
docks of the Lehigh Valley railroad at
Perth Amboy are among the largest in
the world. The docks Of the Pennsyl-
vania railroad at South Amboy are
nearly as large in shipping capacity.
In connection with the handling Of
such immense quantities Of coal one of
the most troublesome problems for the
railroad companies is to keep their roll
ing stock in constant motion. 1t is con-
sidered loss of revenue for car to re-
main several days at given point, and
everything is done tofacilitate the rapid
movement Of the cars, both loaded and
empty. For number Of years loaded
cars were kept standing in the storage
yards Of the Pennsylvania, railroad at
Seuth Amboy for weeks at time. A.
times the company was embarrassed for
want Of cars to transport the coal from
the mines. The difficulty was finally
solved about three years ago. In place
of the long string Of loaded cars may
now be seen immense piles of coal
When q train arrives from the mines,
the various kinds Of coal are sorted out
and the. cars drilled to the proper side
track for unloading. In close proximity
to each side track stands large derrick
with q movable boom extending diagon-
ally into the air about 80 feet. To this
boom is attached large travelling belt,
ON which are fastened large buckets. The
belt is operated by q small steam engine
in charge of the man who manipulates
the elevator. As the coal drops from the
outlet in the car it falls into the buckets
ON the elevator belt and is carried to the
end Of the swinging boom, where it is
dropped in the center of the pile and dis
tributed by gravity. The coal remains in
these piles until it is required for ship
ment then it is loaded in cars and trans
ferred to the docks.
The immense piles of coal usually
contain from 10, 900 to IL, 600 tons each,
and are worth from $40, 900 to $50, 900,
according to the market value of the
coal It is frequently the case that there
are IL Of these piles of coal in the stor-
age yard. representing value of from
$500, 900 to 5000, 600. It was discovered
recently that the coal rusted while in
these piles. This did not detract from
the burning qualities, but affected the
selling value. To prevent this canvas
covers were made at cost Of 81, 900
each. When the piles of coal are all
covered, the storage yard resembles .
large circus. The sight of such an i'm
mense quantity of coal is viewed with
establishment by strangers, although the
residents of South Amboy are so accus-
toned to it that they never give it SEQ
ond thought. New York Telegram.
