 Ready to Go Ahead.
 New York, Aug. 3.--John D. Grim mins of the syndicate formed to con struct an oceanic canal through Nicar- agua under the concession given by the government of Nicaragua to Edward Eyre and Edward F.

The capital needed has been ss- cured and if the estimate of cost made for this government is correct the canal will be built for the same money, and probably less, This estimate is about $230, 000,000.
 The route has not yet been selected, and the company has liberty to choose any within the domain of Nicaragua. That preferred by this government will certainly have preference. The prGha- bllity is that the route will ba thut called the Nicaragua.

CAPT. M'CABE " AS ELECTED
HE RECEITED THE M1JORSHIP OF
 THE SECOND REGTMENT
Captain Donovan of the Sarsfields Lost Taken the Final One Being lG to l4-
 Major suchor Elected Lieutenant

Major suchor Elected Lieutennht
 Colonel.
 A meeting of the officers of the Sec
 ond regiment was held in the of1lcers
 room in the Meadow street armory yes-
 terday afternoon for the purpose of | electing a lieutenant colonel, senior
 major and junior major of the regi- nlent The resignation of Lieutenant Colonel Dickinson Of Waterbury caused
 the election of an officer to fill his place. The unanimous choice at the meeting was the next officer in line, Major T. H. Sucher of this city. Major J. Il. Geddes of Waterbury was appointed to fill Major Sucher's place and the ma jorship left vacant by Major Geddes' promotion resulted in a contest be- tween Captain Charles F. McCabe of Company F, the GraytS and Captain Jeremiah F. Donovan of Company c, the Sarsfield guard.
 The result of the election was in fa- vor of Captain McCabe, who won by two votes. The first ballot was infor- mal and thirty votes were cast result ing in Captain Donovan receiving seventeen and Captain McCabe thir- teen. The next ballot was formal one and resulted in a tie, each receiving fifteen votes Colonel Callahan called for another ballot and this time Cap tain McCabe had sixteen votes and Captain Donovan fourteen. Captain McCabe was declared elected amid the hearty applause of his friends.
 For long time friends of both cap tains had worked hard to have their man" elected and it was known before yesterdays meeting that the voting would be very close. It was also thought by some that Captain McCabe should have the majorship as he had been in service at the head of com pany longer than the genial captain of the Sarsfields. Yet Captain Donovan has shown himself to be a military of ficer of the finest standing and of course was perfectly eligible for the position that Captain McCabe won yesterday.
 It is understood that the unanimity that previously existed for Captain Donovan among the members of the Waterbury companies was broken yes terSay.
 Immediately after the election of the junior major, the meeting, which lasted | about twenty minutes, adjourned and 1 dozen or more members of the Grays i congratulated the new major and gave him three hearty cheers.
 At o'clock the quarterly meeting of | the local officers was held and further | arrangements for camp were made. |
 Paymaster Allen. who has been ap- | pointed regimental commissary, was present and suggested several improve ments over the cooking arrangements.

The firm has been in financial straits for some time and creditors attached the property several weeks ago.
