Omcials Denounce Newspaper Objec-
lions to Two OF the Americans.
Brighton, England. July, 1.-THE
Joint committee having charge of the
forthcoming athletic contests between
the teams Of Yale and Harvard and
Oxford and Cambridge universities, at
the Queens club, West Kensington,
London, held its first onicial meeting
at the Hotel Metrop6ie yesterday af-
ternoon. The Englishmen came from
Eastbourne and took luncheon with
the Americans. Evart Wendell, Of Har-
ward. presided, and among those pres
ent were Joseph B. Morrison. Charles
H. Sheriff. and Holcomb ]. Browne,
on behald Of the Americans, and G.
N. Jackson, T. G. Vassall and A. Hun
ter, on behalf Of the home team.
The meeting proved most satisfac-
tory, the greatest good feeling being
displayed on both sides. The status
Of Burke and Quinlan, of the American
team, charged with professionalism,
was roughly discussed. and the con-
clusion arrived at was that NO
objection to them would hold for q
moment. Mr.. Jackson was very en-
phatic In denouncing the English
newspapers that originated the con-
troyersy. He asked the American cor
respondents to make 1t plain that
neither he nor his colleagues would in
any circumstances have considered any
objection to either Quinlan or Burke.
1.-THE fact that these gentlemen. Mr..
Wendell and bis fellow committeeman,
who are Of such high standing In
amateur athletics, vouch for them. is
entirely sufficient" said Mr.. Jackson,
land II any objection should be raised
again to either. it will not proce
from the Oxford Cambridge oficials
and will not have the sympathy Of OK
ford or Cambridge men"

The CITY Hall,

Since Building Inspector Cassidy called
attention to the deplorable condition Of
the city hall sentiment has been renew
cd for q new building. The majority OF
people do not favor the tearing down OF
the old hall But others ask. what use Is
1t? 1t is dangerous and cru milling to
pieces. Policemen visitors and prisoners
at the hall have been made sick by the foul
odors &c the hall. 1t therefore could not
be used for meeting house as the stencil
would sicken the people. In order to
properly arrange matters for a new hall it
would entail the issuance Of $500, 900 worth
of bonds. Property for city purposes can
be condemned. 1t has been suggested to
rent the Federal building at Sixth and
King for police station. 1t has the coils,
court room and rooms for officers,

THE motormen of the Brooklyn
trolley road struck on Sunday and
attempted to tie the road up. Rails
were torn up, stones hurled at the
cars, window lights knocked out
and passengers hit. Both sides
thus claim the victory. Itwould be
much better tor both sides if they
had gotten together, adjusted their
differences and thus averted the
strike. The price Of the stock will
undoubtedly be knocked off for the

Israns rOnstit,Ite two seoarate mar.

4 TIE Regular and Union Repub-
1icans constitute two separate par
ties 10 our State, and measures
mnst be adopted to enable them to
act together or the Democrats will
elect the next Governor, next men,
Der Of Congress, majority of the
Members ct the next Legislature,
and two U. s. Senator's The pros
pect of such union is not encourag-
Ing and the Democrats are delight
Ia with the outlook for Democratic
success The war between the Re-
publican factions must cease and
d understanding arrived at, in re-
&ard to the disposition OF the Offices.
Il this cannot be done, the candi-
dates to the Legislature should be
nomin ated without reference to
party attachment, if each would
agree to 60 into caucus and be gov
erned by majority rule. No party
can be kept together any length of
time if its representatives disregard
the will Of the majority. This is
the true doctrine to lead to success
and all should understand it. 1t is
folly to undertake to drive men out
Of the party because of their aspi-
rations. The votes of all Republi-
cans will be needed, and any effort
to ALLEVIATE any voter should not be
tolerated. The parties who OPP
pose compromise are not true Re-
publicans and do not deserve any
encouragement or consideration.
Let the party unite and carry the
State, and after doing so it will be
time enough to settle the Senator
ial question. 1t is too bad that the
difference in regard to one Office
should lead to the election of a
Democratic Governor, as in 1896,
and the throwing OF every office in
his gilt into Democratic hands.
