Took the Handicap From Ostler Joe in a Very
 Exciting Drive.
Or Six Favorites Sent Out
 Fashion Plate Alone. Was - Beaten.
Gevser Easily Defeated Tea Rose in a Sprint-Sloan Was in Good Form.

: The. finish to the mile handicap be- tween Napamax and Ostler Joe was the only stirring feature of the racing at Ingleside yesterday. In the oetuns the. former, with Clawson up, was pronounced favorite, while 14 to was laid against the black horse, whlch hao Tod Sloan in the saddle. Refugee away from the post badly was allowed to go out. and make the running to the stretch. with the favOrite and second choice under wraps back in the Dunch' Straighteped for the wire ClaWson cut loose with NapamaX, and Sloan on 'Ost1er followed suit. In terrihc drlVe ..Clawson got his mount over the mark first by head in the remarkably fast time. considering the slow condition or the track, of .1:421a. Better rated the winner should have won handily.
 It was a great day. for favorites, :: every first choice, with the exception or Fashion Plate, scoring a pair ot prack- ets.@' The track was still heavy, which . accounts for the slow time made in the different events.
 Charley Thorpe began the day by piIoting the & to favorite, Prince Ty- rant. to victory in the opening seven furlong run for -year-olds. In front from the start, the first choice won easily from Bow and Arrow, 12 to l chance. Flanders, the second choice, could not untrack himself, fin ishing back among the also rans. The five and half furlong scramble, with King William scratched, proved a gift for Torsion, which went to the post at odds of 1 to f.. Holly's gelding quickly showed in front after the, start and won handily from the 30 to 1 chance Viking, ridden by Spencer. Durward was a good third.
 - The: Burns & Warehouse entry, Gold Scratch, opened a favorite for the ~two-year- scramble over three and a half furlongs, but on the report gain ing credence that Ezell's lilly, Buena Ventura was the goods, the latter was played down to favoritiSm. Gold :. Scratch receded from to to tWos. Hennessy, on the first choice, breaking from the post second, skinned away in the lead and hard ridden at the end downed Canace two lengths. Cut off soon after the start Gold Scratch fin : fshed in the show.
 :. Fashion Plate was : a lukewarm fa- Vorite for the mile selling run, but did :. not seem to have her usual supply of speed, and Hennessy; who had the mount, was fortunate to finish in the show. Satyr, the second choice, ridden by Sloan, won handily from O'Fleta, 6 P to 1 shot, with Thorpe up.
 But three started in the final five and a half furlong: sprint, and one (Roy Carruthers) might as well have stayed at home: Geyser, a light favorite over Tea Rose, won in a common gallop, af- ter the latter had led into the stretch.

LEAGUE OF THE CROSS.
Members of the St. Joseph Branch Give a Successful Enter
 tainmpnt

Another successful entertainment was added to the many that have been nelo this year, under the auspices or lnd1Vlo- nal branches of the League of the Cross, last evening at St. Josephs Hall, by the members of the St. Joseph branch. The little hall on Tenth and Howard streets was crowded with a large and apprecla- tive audience and there were few empty chairs to show the lack of enthusiasm on the part of residents in this part of the city in manifesting desire to foster the great principles upon which the organiZa- tiOn is based.
 A programme of unusual excellence was rendered and many prominent local Iun- makers were named upon It who con tributed their services toward making the evening pleasant one for those who at tended the entertainment for no other re- muneration than to help the boys of this branch of the league along in their ef- forts to have their parish well repre- sented in the cadet regiment.
 C. l.. Asmussen, the speaker of the evening" delivered an eloquent and in- structive address upon the subject of temperance outlining in the expansion of the subject the happiness derived from total abstinence and the misery and de- gradation consequent upon the habftual use of liquor.
 Immediately after and at the conclusion of the address the following programme was announced

THE ARMY INVESTIGATIONS.

The President has selected commits
sion of nine distinguished persons from
different walks of life and different sec
tions of the country, these to compose a
court of inquiry for the investigation of
the various abuses charged to the quar-
termaster's, commissary and medical de-
partments of the army. There has been
some reluctance expressed to serve on the
board, and the two members first named
have declined the honor, offering excuses.
1t is never pleasant occupation, that of
having to probe into sore places, but the
commission will be duly organized and it
will enter upon its duties with the full
purpose of placing, if possible, the blame
where it may belong.
The opponents of the Administration,
we observe, are disposed to criticise the
method of investigation because it is not
at once directed upon the head of the War
Department. This, of course. would be
suitable to those who have prejudged
OCO1CtdAy A1SSl W nave DCOu lu6 Cul-
pable cause of all the evils that are stated
to have grown from mismanagement in
the fields and camps of the war. But the
object of fair and searching inquiry is
far greater and higher than for crafty
ing anybody's prejudiees; and the Presi-
dent has, in the opinion of all right
thinking men, adopted precisely the plan
of investigation best calculated to single
out the negIectful and incompetent and
to establish the degree of their response
bility. 1t will logically follow that this
ordeal will produce defensive effort by
all who are accused to shift their short
comings upon the shoulders of superiors,
and not upon interiors for whose acts they
might be held to be accountable, and that
in this way the investigation would inev-
liable reach up to and penetrate the War
Department itself and its executive head
should it be clearly shown that the seat
of the many crying army evils had its To-
cation Immediately at the capital.

DoNNELLY-DALY.

A wellinformed Trenton correspondent
informs the CHRONICLE that Quarter
master General R. A. Donnelly will
probably receive the Democratic nominal
ton for Governor, as the leaders Of the
party are nearly all pronounced gold
men. The present plan is to ignore the
money question and the dangerous
Chicago platform, making the fight
mainly on State issues. OF course this
is based on the supposition that the
Democratic convention will be controlled
by the sound money element.
However, Senator DAILY and his friends
are making a violent fight and are
naturally elated over the fact that Mer-
Ger county will be represented at the
convention by practically solid silver
delegation.

est entreaty that the United States shall
hold the Philippines, and even more SO
by his protestation that his people will be
at peace if they are assured by us that
they are not to be returned to the thral-
dom of Spain. That is reasonable; and.
though not on Aguinaldo's account, we
most sincerely concur in the view that
the Philippines should remain in Ameri-
can possession by virtue of American
conquest. And as to trouble with Agui-
naldo, possibly our fears are being mag
nitied. Whenever the placid, contained
and commanding Dewey telegraphs that
trouble lies ahead of us then we may well
watch for squalls, but until then we do
not take dark reports seriously.

FINE WEATHER.

A succession of genial autumnal days,
radiant with sun-laden moons and cool
and limpid nights, cut short the torrid
enormities that marked the daily record
of temperature for the first week of Sep
TENDER. While this headlong fall of the
mercury effected sudden collapse of
seaside and other summertime gayeties,
chilling the waves and crisping the coun-
try air and hurrying homeward the anx-
ious feet of the absent multitudes, and
for these reasons was not everywhere
welcome innovation, yet at the camps
and in the hospitals the change of wealth
er proved boon to the patriot and to the
patient alike; and for that let us all be
glad and thankful.

Mr.. PlTNEYs WITHDRAWAL.

Only his own clear and manly state
ment of the reasons which moved him to
withdrawal from the gubernatoriaI
contest could reconcile the hosts of Hon.
Mahlon Pitney's friends to the step
he has determined upon. That he had
multitudes of steadfast supporters and
devoted partisans in behalf of his candi-
dacy for the Governorship, and that
these were being hourly reinforced by
numbers of independent voters, is widely
known. Nevertheless, his own best
Judgment that he should retire from the
canvass must suffice for all who had
hoped for his triumphant election and
who yet stand ready to sustain him for
any official distinction within the gift
of the people of New Jersey.
In his graceful letter of withdrawal
Mr.. Pitney says:
I'm my brief but active canvass / have
received most gratifying support from
many quarters, and appreciate very
highly the efforts of my numerous
friends. l now retire of my own motion
in the interest of party harmony. When
I entered the contest the names of Acting
Governor Voorhees,, Hon. Franklin
Murphy and Judge Fort, as well as my
own, were before the people for their
consideration. Since then Mr.. Murphy
and Judge Fort have both stated that
they do not wish to be considered as can
didates, and | am now confronted with
the fact that my candidacy alone stands
in the way of the unanimous nomination
of Mr.. Voorhees,. While / am assured
that large number of the delegates
would be favorable to me, yet upon re-
cent advices from my friends in different
parts Of the State am convinced that I
cannot reasonably expect to secure the
required majority of the convention.
Under these circumstances feel that it
is not fair to the party nor to my friends
for me to permit them longer to continue
the contest in my behalf. For these
reasons. and because of the great impor-
lance of promoting party harmony in the
campaign, have written
to Governor Voorhees, announcing my
and rendering to him, as the
choice of the party, my cordial support. .
