Manager John Graham of the b. A. A..
has received an invitation from the
Budapest Athletic Club TO make entries
for the international games which take
place in that city October 4. A special
challenge cup offered by Count Andrassy
for the quarter-mile run Is the banner
prize OF the games, and must be won
three years in succession to become the

Sharp Criticism.

London, Sept. 26.-The correspondent
OF The Times at Berlin says: Prince
Bismarck's letter to Governor Culberson
of Texas commenting on the idea that
the United States should undertake free
coinage of silver Independently of other
nations) has been hailed with jubiliza-
ton IN agrarian circles here. 1t is quite
true that he always hankered for a
double standard but when in office he
would never assume responsibility for
any bimetallic measure. His letter may
be added to the list of irresponsible, but
dangerous, utterances deriving impor-
tance from their power 10 mislead per-
sons possessing greater capacity for
hero worship than for independent
thought

game at Cambridge on the same date.
The Chicago Athletic Club is in hard
luck, not because il has not got good
eleven, but for the reason tnst the col
iege teams in the West refuse to play the
wearers OF the cherry circle.
YaIe's eleven will probably line up as
follows for the first few games of the sea-
son: Ends. Bass, Connor, and Hazen;

Airport ;guards, Chsmberlain, Drummond

Ely and Gerard; halves, Chauncey, Belts

1t is possible that Claire Fincke, '97,

BADLY in DEBT.
New Bedford May Not BE In New England
League Mkt Year.

Calls were sent out TO some fifty New
Bedford men who 1t was thopSbt would
be willing TO help in raising funds to
have the city represented by team in
the New England League next season.
Only eight men responded to the call,
which indicates thar the prospects for a
ball club there next season are very slim.
The debt of the association amounts to
s114s. All the players have salary due in
amounts ranging from $40 to S26O. Ten
men are on note FOR $500, only trifie
more than 500 having been paid on it.
With this note $1,000 Is owed.
Those present teld only an informal
discussion and came to the conclusion
that to successfully run baseball there
another season at least s5C0o would be
needed, and 1t would be useless to
attempt to run the club with less than
tnat amount for a starter. Just how TO
raise this amount was not clear to those
assem- bled, nor even how to get the club
out of debt.
One man present made out list OF 30
odd names who will be invited to meet
within one week, aud IL at this proposed
meeting some way Is not forthcoming to
raise at least money enough to pay the
players New Bedford will see no bali club
next season. The prospects look de-
cidedly gloomy.

Royals wouldn't Have IL.

London, Sept. 26.-Sir George Newnes
made request to the Royal London
Yacht club to support him in issuing a
challenge for the America cup, the con-
dition to be attached TO the challenge
that the matches should be sailed off
Halifax, and that only the load-water
line and the length OF the challenger
should be required to be stated, as in the
case of the VallSyrie. The Royal Lon
don Yacht club has declined TO accede
to Sir Georges request, on the ground
that the club had previously passed a
resolution to the effect that the new deed
of gift to the New York Yacht club for
the cup was inimical to the sport Of
yachting.

A STEP FORWARD.
Duns Review Sees an Improvement In
Condition of Trade.

VI
New York, Sept 26-R. G.. Dun e. Co.,
in their weekly review OF trade, say:
A very moderate and yet distinct inn
provement is seen, no longer only in the
buying materials, which continues, and
stiffens prices, but also in orders for
products of some industries in money
markets, and exports OF staples. 1t Ia
as yet little more than a step toward
better things, but has already started
some important work, and prompted a
few considerable contracts. The move
ment of crops continues large, and pur-
chases for export have advanced prices
or prevented depression. While the
grain In working force is not great, 1t
seems clear that for the first tine in
many months there is some net gain.
Increasing confidence In the political fu-
ture, in the judgment OF most business
men, has some influence.
An important change is the general
advance in produce markets, especially
in wheat, which rose sharply on Thurs
day and Friday closing SIC. higher for
the week, with much buying, apparently
on foreign account.
Cotton advanced &c. week ago, but
lost 3-16ths, and with full receipts might
have gone farther, but for resumption
of work by several important mills.
Much less than the full capacity of mills
Is working, and the demand for goods
has been quite slack with a decline of
1-16th in print cloths, but in other goods
recent advances are maintained.
Speculative buying of wool does not
abate but no gain in prices results. The
sales "a re largely for cash and by holders
who have maturing notes to meet. though
some have been for export in spite of 2
decline of per cent in the London open
ing. few of the woolen mills are re-
suming. the belated demand for heavy
goods constituting most of the gain vis-
ible, but manufacturers show confidence
that more goods will be wanted when the
future is more clear.
Finished products of iron meet more
inquiry, and the placing Of some large
contracts explain the starting OF two or
three works, but after such months as
have passed, a little business is gain.
There is no change in the boot and
shoe manufacture, spring orders being
held back TO n great extent, because OF
the advance in prices asked, but filling
in orders for immediate needs keep part
of the shops busy Completion of old
orders resulted i'm shipments during
four weeks past 2.7 per cent larger than
in 1894. and 8 per cent larger than In
1892. Leather Ia a shade higher for some
grades. and hides are still lifted little

THIS TIME 1T WAS AMoRITA.

Some strange fatality seems to pursue
the schooner yachts Amorita and
Quissetta, for while Thursday the latter
lost her bowsprit on the Amorita's main
booms yesterday the Amorita's bobstay
parted and her bowsprit was snapped off
short at her deck.
The accident happened at 1:29 O'Clock.
just after the yachts had turned the fret
mark -on,the first round. The Qui setta's
owper seeing the Amorita's plight, de-
clined to taxe walkover, and the yachts
will ressil the race today.
1t was a glorious race to the mark,
and they were only about a minute apart
when they rounded, the time being
Quissetta, 1:11:l5; Amorits, 1:12:25.
The regatta committee of the Larch.
mont Club spent all last night taking
testimony in regard to the Quissetta's
collision with the Amorita in yesterday s
race. AS over Sl2, 900 depends on the re-
sult Of these races the yachtsmen were
anxious to learn what decision the COM
mittee would reach, and the majority
were plessed to hear tho matter decided in
favor of the Quissetta, on the ground that
previous to the foul the Amorita had
deyiated from her course.
The committee, In view OF the fact that
the Quissetta did not cover the course,
ordered yesterdays race resailed, and the
whole series will start fresh today.

ment of his house on Ann street, dead,
with the gas turned on. good many
people said il was an accident; Few
claimed II was suicide. / don't know
which ii was, but Pm satisfied OF one
thing he didn't die natural death. but
from inhaling gas. A couple of months
ago in that same cellar John III. Gregory's
son, young man of ~ years, was found
dead, his body badly decomposed and the
gas turned on. In this case many
PEOPLE said accident, and few Others
suicide, because they thought the young
man had become despondent through his
inability to obtain steady employment
and had ended bis lite almost on the
same spot where his father had met his
unlocked for end two or three years be-
fore.
ssThcre are two cases. The third didn't
happen in this city, but In New York.
Eugene G. Gregory was member OF the
class of 'g7 at Yale College. lie had spent
the summer at his fathers country place
st Irvington-on-the-H Hudson. Lat Satur-
day night he went to New York ss he
said, with the intentIo OF attending the
theater. He was expected home the same
night, but did not come. The family did
not become anxious about him until
Wednesday and on Thursday, no word
having been received, Mr. Gregory senior
ssarted TO New York for the purpose OF
finding his son or some tidings of'him.
The frst place he visited was his town
house ON Madison avenue, which had
feen closed all summer while the family
had been In Irvirgton.
"It had been Eugene's custom, when
detained in New YORK over night, to re-
main at the Madison avenue residence,
and knowing this the father began his
the house he noticed the all-prevailing
and pervading door OF gas, and on going
to the bath room, from which the
greater volume seemed TO come, he was
shocked to find his missing son there
lead. He had deliberately planned his
saking CT SO there could De no question
that II was case of suicide. He mad
been dead at least three days, and pos
sinly longer. The doctor who mad been
attending him gave it as his opinion thar
the young mans mind had been unbsl-
anced by overstudy. Perhaps 1t bad-who
knowsf Perhaps young John ii. Greg
ory's mind had been unbalanced by fret
and worry over bis inability to get en-
pIcymcnt. Perhaps, too, John III. Greg
ory, seniors, mind bad been unbalanced
by brooding over something that his
friends knew nothing about. But that
isn't the point started out TO make.

attached to those who bear the name Of
Gregory. Do you think have estab-
lishec it?''
