There was royal sport at Ingleside Coursing Park yesterday. The fleet hares and well-conditioned hounds, together with the even drawing of the card and excellent management, gave the 40oo peo- pie present an opportunity to witness some of the finest racing of the season Several of the courses were exceptionally long, and the two ''grandstand' finishes raised the enthusiasm of the crowd.
 Yesterday was the second anniversary of the inauguration of coursing at 1ngle- side and the purses paid an bunting to s775, as compared with those of two years ago. which summed up only s150 are evil dence of the increased popularity of the great Irish sport on this coast.

 A synopsis of his sermon follows:
 What should be the attitude of the pulpit toward the war, is an important question raised by many thoughtful people. In answering the question do not presume to defend but to in terpret the pulpit.

 The pulpits of Philadelphia fired the morning gun of the revolution, and during the civil war the pulpits of the North cannonaded the conscience of the South.
 The American pulpit has always been patri- otic Bishop Simpson was the adviser of Lin coin and Henry Ward Beecher faced eggs and opposition in England. Last week three cheers were given in Dr. Behrends great church in Brookiyn and Dr. Griggs sermon in the La fayette avenue church was followed with a most remarkable demonstration of patriotic approval.

Dr. Rader, in his remarks, did not defend sensationalism in the pulpit, but contended that the minister had as much right as the editor to express his views on the subject. He also said he thought the soldier, during time of strife. is as sacred as the preacher, and the battleship as sacred as the pulpit. He

PRICE SITUATION Is STRONG.
View OF the Outlook for Bust
ness-Failures Decrease,

Bradstreet's View Of the Outlook for Busi-
ness-Failures Decrease,
New York. Feb. 25.-Bradstreet's
says: While business Of q speculative
nature has been quick to reflect the in
creasing strain in political affairs, in
reduced values and Withdrawals or cur
tailment of activity in some lines,
there is little to indicate that the vol
ume Of 6is:ributive trade has been re-
duced. and reports to Bradstreet this
week, SO far as the latter branch of
business is concerned, are among the
best received this year. With few inn
portant exceptions the price situation
is one OF strength.
At the east last weeks squirt in the
dry goods trade at Boston does not
seem to have held, but at New York
there is considerably more doing in the
jobbing trade. The cotton situation is
one Of firmness. rejecting alike the
curtailment CT production growing out
OF labor troubles and the firmness of
raw cotton, induced by a good export
demand. Wool is firm, but the demand
has perceptibly slackened, and there is
less doing in manufactured goods. The
best report as to the distribution of
trade made so far this year comes from
the central west. Spring trade there is
reported earlier than usual.
A very large drop in the number of
business failures is indicated by reports
to Bradstreet's this week, the total
number being only 49,, against 269 last
week. 25S in the corresponding week of

Delegates attending the convention
are very much exercised over state
ments made to the joint conference by
Operator Fred Lukin. Of Chicago. and

Lukin is fighting hard against a joint

that the Chicago and Alton railroad
had assured him a rate to Chicago that
would be low enough for him to sell
his coal there, no matter what price he
had to pay for mining.

Washington. Feb. 25.-The friends of
the victims Of the Maine disaster have
discovered that they cannot have their
bodies brought to this country in cases
where they have already been inferred.
This is due to the fact that the Spanish
laws forbid the exhumation Of corpses
until the expiration of the period of five
years after burial. The prohibition
had its origin in the fear Of infection
from contagious diseases.
