one hundred and fifty yards. The
Mechanics team ran first, starting at
the third drop of the American flag
held by William Addison, member
of the Duquesne hook and ladder COM
pany, making connection, unrolling
one hundred and fifty feet of hose,
breaking coupling, attaching nozzle and
throwing water at the goal line in 32A
seconds.
The Liberty company ran second,
covering the distance, connecting, I'M
rolling the required length OF hose,
breaking tie coupling, but failed to
attach the nozzle at the goal line before
the water was thrown. They were
given no time.
There we're eleven men at the ropes
of each hose cart, while four men were
detailed by each company to perform
the connecting, breaking and attach
ing. The judges were 0. p. Mason,
Howard Heatherington and Joseph
Satterfeld. The time-keepers were
William Dorer, w. j. kirkpatrick and
d. H. Darrah. William Addison was
the starter.
The men at the ropes CT the Me-
chanics hose cart were: George Key
ser, Alexander Kilgore James Kilgore,
Joseph Burk, Joseph Donovan, Frank
Day, George Day, Alexander Brandon,
Christopher Marks, Justice Allen and
Enoch Smith.
Donald Mcdonald and Joseph Key
ser made the connection, Frank Mason
broke the coupling, and VIM. Kruger
attached the nozzle.
The boys at the rope of the Liberty
hose cart were: Joseph Jarrett, Martin
Daugherty. John Marley Frank Steger,
John Wagner, James Murphy, John
Murphy, John Poorman, George Rode
wig, Joseph Strong and John Johnson.
Connection was made by William
Shannafelt and Joseph CHASER. the
coupling was broken by Frank Satter-
field, and the attachment of the nozzle
to have been made by Harry Satter-
field was a failure.
The Mechanics team made an admir-
able run, using good Judgment from
start to finish and making excellent
time. The failure Of the Liberty team
to attach the nozzle is to be regretted.
Had the Liberty team made the
proper finish the contest would have
been very close.

A GREAT WEEKS BUSINESS
Was That Transacted by the Firm of Geo.
e. Stisel s. Co.. Last Week.

The anniversary week business
transacted during the past six days by
the dry goods firm of George E. Stifel
& Co., probably ecl;psed by a large per-
centage any corresponding weeks
business in the dry goods line in al.
the commercial history of this city.
The store was crowded during the
business hours Of every day, and the
large discounts offered on all classes of
goods resulted in purch les which ma
terially depleted even the large stock
carried by the house. Last evening the
members of the firm were congratu-
lating themselves, not alone upon the
unprecedented volume of business done,
but as we'll upon the immense amount
Of money actually saved to their GUS
TONERS. Twenty cents off every dol
lar amounts to something, even on the
most moderate purchase; but during
the past week this discount has ex-
tended to every department of the
store, and covered every item of stock.
That the people appreciated the oppor-
tunity is shown by the result achieved.

Washington, Aug. 2O.-The secretary
of war received a number of tele-
grams from the governors of various
states in regard to the proposed reduc-
ton of the army. In the majority of
cases the governors suggest regiments
of their states which may be mustered
out among the first. but there are sew
eral cases where the governors say that
certain of their state troops are eX-
ceedingly DESTROYS Of remaining in the
military service and taking part in any
further campaign.
The secretary Of war is preparing a
list of regiments which shall be mus
tered out first under the present plan
of reducing the army by $4,000 or 100.-
600 men. 1t is probable this list will
be made public next week, by which
time it is hoped to have the matter
finally determined. '' '.A
The First Ohio infantry, attached to
the Fourth army corps at Fernandina,
has been ordered to Jacksonville and

is taken at the request of the regiment,
with a view to their employment in theJ
army to be sent to Havana in the TALL

are in favor of the mastering out of
that regiment.
