electors and hey ask nothing further
Let the Populists and Silver cen IA
committees meet at an early date aud
agree among themselves. how the
nominations Of Supreme Judge, Lieu

Regents OF the State University should
be devided.
The Democratic Convention could
then name the electors, and adjourn.
The silver men at their Elko Conven-
ton could name their portion or the
ticket, indorse the electors and adj
jourD. The PopuIists could complete
the balance OF the ticket in a State
Convention, indorse the work OF the
other Conventions and adjourn, and
the alliance would be complete.
The ticket put up by these three
conventions would sweep the St ate

GRAVESE5ND RACE TRACK, L. T.,
June 4, 1S96.-There was joy among the
trainers and horsemen quartered at this
track this morning when the sun rose
bright and clear and their hopes and
wishes for a fire day and a fast track
for the Brooklyn Jockey Club Handicap
were realized. The conditions for the great
race early this morning were well nigh
perfect.
Everything pointed to a successful day.
Even Superintendent Brush, who is never
over sanguine, was satisfied with, the
weather He said that the track was never
in better condition. and lie had hopes that
the famous record of 2:O7 made by Dry
Monopole in the first Brooklyn Handicap
would be eclipsed. All of the probable
starters in the big handicap were in good
condition and ready for a sing race
The Brooklyn Handicap IS run for the
tenth time at Gravesend this afternoon.
and the following evenly balanced field
was entered to face Starter Flynn
Clifford, weight 125, jockey, Clayton;
keenan,, 121, Griffin; Counter Tenor, 120,

This field is one of the smallest that has
ever raced for the big prize, but what it
lacks in quantity it makes up for and to
spare in quality. Every horse in it is in
fine fettle, as has been shown in race
in public or in a private trial.

king Ricnard,s wooing.

Edwin A. Abbey's picture for the ROYAL
Academy this year represents Richard
III. in his strange 'wooing of the Lady
Anne. It is the episode described in the
first act of the play, where the lady, fol-
lowing the coffin of her husbands s mur-
the murderer and yielding to an insidf-
GUS courtship, allows her feelings to
change from hatred to an interest that
ends in love. Mr.. Abbey has, indeed, toned
down the violence of the scene by omit

anxious, eager crowd, whose peering faces

CAMPOS UNDER ARREST.
BIZ Cable to the United Press.

MADRID, June 4. 1Se6.-The attempted
duel between General Martinez Campos
and Borrero, which was prevented by
the timely interference of the Captain
General of Madrid. who arrived upon
the scene just as the principals were
being placed in their positions by their
seconds, is the sensation of the hour.
The .ImparciaH publishes the text
of the letter written to General Martinez
Campos by General Borrero, which
brought the quarrel between the two
Generals to a crisis and provoked General
Martinez Campos to challenge the writer.
The letter concludes as follows:-'For
many years you have been my enemy
My patience is ended and 1 am now
ready to do to you what the rebels in
Cuba couldn't do''
The Ministers are endeavoring to in
duce General Borrero to withdraw the
letter and if he refuses to do so he will
be court martialed

Concerning the celebrated Father
Darcy, probably the greatest wit Of that
witty nation, Ireland, it is related that
he once visited the palatial mansion Of
a prefect specimen of the nouveaa1x
riches, who lived in the neighborhood
of Dublin, at the invitation of its pomp-.
Gus owner. He was shown all over the
house. his host taking great pains, as
is habitual in such cases, to keep the
witty and observant priest well Informed
as to the cost of all the beautiful things
he was shown. Finally, after making
the complete tour of the chateau, the
library was reached, it's tremendous
shelves groaning under the weight of
thousands upon thousands of volumes
resplendent in the most magnificent bind
ings.. Here they seated themselves, and
the host said, with a sigh of snobbish
exultation:-
Well, father, I have brought YOU here
last, because this is my favorite room.
The other rooms, maybe, give pleasure
to my wife and my daughters, but this
is my pface-right here among these
books, who are my friends And these
here on the desk (pointing to a score Of
ultra-looking volumes) are what / cali
my intimate friends.
Father Darcy got up and examined
one of them. when broad grin spread
over his good -natured face, as he said
ssWell, it's glad I am to see that YOU
never cut your intimate friends. Mill

have had merry time
Last night was no exception and an
unusual number of young people were
present. The large assembly room in
st. Bridget's Hall was tastafully decor

plants. The entertainment was short
one and when it was over dancing be-
gan. Ladies were in full charge of all
the arrangements, and to their credit it
must be said everything passed off as
smoothly as could be desired Dancing
was of course the chief amusement. 1t
was not too warm and it was with re-

There will be dancing in the hall again

SPIES WORRY THEM
Liquor Men Will Try ts
Find Out Who the Chris
tian S1euths Are.
NO BOYCOTT Or EQUALIZATION
Jersey City Dealers Resolve to Se-
cure Eminent Counsel and
Fight Their Prosecutors.

The local Liquor Dealers Associations
met in Franklin Hall, at Warren and
montgomery streets, yesterday afternoon
Patrick McArdle presided. The Rev. John
L. Scudder's amateur detectives and the
sleuths of the Christian Endeayor Unions
worry the dealers to some extent. They
decided yesterday by an almost unari-
nous vote to find out who the young
cubs are who are playing the spy act
on them and then trotting off. with their
alleged evidence to the Grand Jury. To
ascertain who the young men who are
relieving the police from duty it was
agreed that several of the batch indicted
on evidence submitted by the amateurs
should plead not guilty and stand trial.
In this way the names of the Young
detectives will be ascertained 1t will
also enable the liquor dealers to see their
accusers and thus by knowing them be-
able to be on the lookout for them. Many
OF the dealers declare that they were
indicted on insufficient evidence and 9TH
erS that the violation of the law so far
as they are concerned consisted of SELL
ing liquor at about midnight on Satur-
day.
The liquor dealers will engage Senator
DAILY and other prominent lawyers to de-
Aehu lneIn. tHe cost not to be borne by
individuals but by the association. George
Wolston, a member of the State Associa-
ton, was present. He made long ad~
dress and offered numerous Suggestions
relative to the best manner of protecting
dealers from persecution.
1t is believed that shortly the State
Association will fight every case made
out against dealer. Nearly every local
dealer has sgnified his willingness to
join the State body so that there will be
head to look to for assistance when
occasion requires. The boycott of the
Hudson County National Bank, as de-
clared by the Hoboken liquor Dealers be+
cause Richard c.. Washburn, President Of
Jury, was discussed at length. It was
decided that such a boycott was Httls
less than nonsensical. 1t will meet with
no support from the dealers of this city,
A boycott, under any cireuIfls tanees was
declared to be bad policy
The question of having the old ssblue
laws enforced en- Sunday was also taken
up. The idea of liquor dealers entering.
into a fight to stop trolley cars from
running on Sunday, closing up drug
stores candy and ice cream shops ana
grocery stores was not considered a good
one, and the dealers decided that having
troubles of their own not 70 melest their

The liquor dealers will meet again next
week and arrange for the defence of the
men who are to plead not guilty to the
indictments for violating the Sunday ex-

LOOK OUT FOR SUSPICIOUS TENS
Some Onei is Working THIS city with
RAISED yy5ndOm Notes.

Chief of Police Murphy wants to warn
merchants to be on the lookout for spu-
rlous $40 bills which clever operators have
raised from 81 Window notes. One of the
raised bills was shown the chief this
morning. Testhe naked eye the deception
is scarcely visible, but under microscope
it is clearly shown that in effacing parts
of the figure 2 acid has been used. The
specimen in the chiefs possession is some
what blurred, it being quite apparent that
the ink was used in making the new fig
ures before the acid had dried
The picture Of Secretary Window on the
note makes the supposed $40 bill look
strange, but it is only those familiar with
money who would detect the fraud The
they had been sent for de deposit bv T1lsde busje
ness men In nearly every Instance the
raised bills have been passed on small
merchants. One of the bad bills was traced
ers.
The chief advises merchants to examine
all the $40 bills they receive
