the suggestion of their ringleaders, the
 strikers decided to march to Paris in
 order to force their grievances on the
 attention of the authorities. 1t will be
 remembered that similar plea was put
 forward at the time of the Creusot
 strike, but M Waldeck Rousseau inter
 vened as arbitrator, and the Cabinet
 was spared the necessity of finding a
 means of dealing with migratory
 horde of clamorous Socialist workmen. On this occasion things have gone fur ther The strikers, both men and wom- en have started on their pilgrimage, and over 1000 strong they have arrived before the walls of Belfort.
 The local authorities accorded them a cold reception and refused them ad- mission to the city. The Prefect at first was amiable, but to no purpose He generously offered to have those un- usual vagrants taken home by special train, but they declined this unique opportunity of free railway journey. Besides thinking of special trains. the Prefect prudently collected all the gendarmes he could muster asked for the assistance of the military, and final ly ventured to clap into prison two of the ringleaders with whom he had preVi ously had negotiating on almost equal terms. In the meantime the strikers had bivouacked outside Befort. The women were accommodated in barns and the men lighted bonfires and danced around them, singing the "Carmagnole, the vindictive. blasphemous, and gene rally omnous revolutionary song which last Sunday was yelled without let or hindranoe in the streets of Paris for the first time since the Commune.

The water bills there are from $175 to $200 per month these large bills being due to the poor condition of the plumbing and yet the board of finance cut the estimate for that work from $4,8O0 to $3,0O0.

CURRENT SPORTING NOTES

The Washingtons dropped their fourth
straight game to the Louisvilles yesterday
in the latter city by the score of to 3.
William Dineen was on the rubber for
the Senators, and, from the reports waited
east, big Billy" alone was responsible for
the defeat. The story of the game con-
corning Dineen runs something like this:
Clarke stole home from third while d.
neen had the ball in his hands. Dineen
began the inning with a safe hit, but went
to sleep at first, and was thrown out by
Pitcher Woods" These plays do not count
in the error column, but Big Billy man
aged to get there in the eighth with a wild
throw that gave the Colonies run. Dr.
neen has been touted as a coming pitcher,
but his arrival is evidently far off. taking
his work this season as a criterion, and a
good, stiff fine would perhaps help to
brighten UP his sleepy intellect.
Walter Woods was the twirler who did
effective work for the Colonies, this bright
young man having nothing remarkable in
the way Of speed or curves, but he uses his
brains. The ball was hit hard but when
hits meant runs the bingles were not forth
coming.
Hard luck is said to have figured in
the game, as the Senators outbatted and
Outfielded the Louisvilles, but close analy-
sis of the contest will quickly demonstrate
that the stupid, sleepy work of Washing
tons pitcher, coupled UP with fine playing
by the Colonels in tight places, were the
causes that brought forth our representa-
tives' defeat
Atherton did the best batting for the
Washingtons, having two singles and a
triple to his credit, while Padden hammered
out single and home run. Following is
the score:

Cornell got the start on her competitors
IN the freshmen race, rowing a thirty-five
stroke. The Ithacan shell moved away
with little check, and there was evidence
of much power and steadiness behind the
stroke. Columbia began with thirty-five
strokes to the minute. decreasing it to thir-
ty-three within a few strokes Pennsyl-
vania caught the water rowing thirty-six,
dropping shortly to thirty-five. Pennsyl-
wanna was slightly in advance of Columbia
and very little behind the Ithacans as the
crews moved away. Cornell gradually in
creased the lead, rowing thirty-four strokes
at the. half mile, and maintaining this rate
down to the mile and a half mark.
At the half mile Columbia was rowing
thirtytwo strokes, but her shell was
checking badly. Cornell was checking
least of all and the shell moved without a

lumbia just above the quarter mile, and
although they picked up on even terms,
the Quaker shell was unable to head the
New Workers to the finish. Columbia was
quite steady all the way down the course
Cornell had half a length at the half mile,
and at the mile the Ithacans had doubled
the advantage.
1t was thorough exhibition of the
