fessor Langley's airship was undisturbed
inside the houseboatf this morning and
early afternoon 1t will not be taken out
at all today Tomorrow morning, with good
weather conditions, the machine will be
elevated to the superstructure and again
prepared for a launching.
This time it is believed the effort to get
1t Off will be successful. The experience
gained by the experts in the repeated drill
ing with the aerodrome in position has
been very helpful. The time required to
get the machine on top and equip 1t for a
flight has been greatly reduced.
Quicker Work Possible.
Barring accidents the work can now be
done in two hours. Most Of the mechanics
remained in Washington today, taking adj
vantage of the general holiday. They are
expected to report here for duty this even
ing, so that all will be in readiness for
work tomorrow.
The houseboat Sunday was in charge of
Private Allison, who is now able to visit the
shore in the repaired naphtha launch.

CAVALRY EXHIBITION.
Given for Benefit Of Earl Of Skates
burV

Jury.
An exhibition of the cavalry and artil-
lery movements in the army Of the United
States was given this morning at Fort
Myer by the troopers Of the I'd Cavalry
and members Of the 4th Field Battery, for
the benefit Of the Earl and Countess Of
Shaftesbury, who are the guests of Cen
eral and Mrs. Corbin. Part Of the exhibit
ton was given on the drill field south
Of the railroad tracks at Fort Myer and
part was shown in the riding hall. The
troopers were called into the field at about
8 o'clock. and Troops E. F and G were
put through a squadron drill. The Earl
of Shaftesbury, accompanied by the Coun-
tess and General and Mrs Corbin, wit
messed the drill from carriage. After
the artillery exhibition the guests were es-
corted to the riding hall, where the men,
bers Of Troop H gave, under command of
Captain Harry G. Trout, an excellent ex-
hibitdOn of rough riding. The men under
Captain Trout have been in training but
a short time. but their horsemanship struck
the visitors as marvellous. The troopers
were put through all the exercises pre-
scribed in the drill regulations, and in ad-
dition to this were given an opportunity
to show their horsemanship in any special
movements they might devise. For more
than half an hour the feats of the men
in squads and troop kept the visitors
In state of amaZement. After jumping
hurdles with four horses. pyramid of
eight men was formed on four horses,
and the entire lot put over a hurdle. The
exhibition was concluded by the men throw
ing their horses at the word of command.
The horses dropped almost Immediately
on the command, one or two only being
hard to handle. In addition to the Earl
and Countess Of Shaftesbury and General
and Mrs. Corbin, the evolutions were wit
messed by General Oliver, the new assist
ant secretary Of war, Assistant Secretary
Taylor Of the Treasury Department and
General Wallace Randolph, chief Of artil
lery, United States army
At the conclusion of the show in the rid
ing hall the visitors were given an oppor-
tunity to inspect a cavalry soldier fully
equipped for the field. The Earl of Shaftes-
bury was particularly interested in this
portion Of the exhibition and inspected the
man infinitely, taking in not only the
equipment, but the manner in which he
sat his horse and the horse itself. When
this inspection was over General and Mrs.
Corbin took their guests for drive through
Arlington, and after luncheon drove to the
public buildings in the city where special
arrangements had been made to show the
visitors through. This evening General and
Mrs. Corbin will give dinner in honor of
their guests. Among those invited to meet
the earl and countess on this occasion are
Secretary Hay, Secretary Hitchcock, Post
master General Payne, Secretary Wilson,
General Oliver, Mr.. and Mrs. Edwin Gould
and Sir Thomas Upton.
The earl and countess will leave the city
tomorrow to go to West Point, where they
will also be the guests of General and Mrs.
Corbin.

Admission of French Wine Denied.

The first instance of the governments
refusal to admit to this country adulterated
wines. under the pure food act. took place
Saturday when entry was refused Of ship
ment of white wine from Bordeaux, France.
Upon analysis this wine was found to con-
tain salcylic acid. Under the pure food
act entry may be refused to any article Of
food, wines, etc, where sale and consump-
ton of the same are prohibited in the coun-
try whence imported. In this case it Is
shown that February %, 1881, the French
government expressly prohibited the sale
of any food substance, solid or liquid, in
the composition Of which there enters any
quantity whatsoever of salicylic acid or
its derivatives.

Punishment for Contempt


Mayor johnson is furious over the action
of the court and has publicly made such Sc
we're criticism of the court that he is likely
to be punished for contempt. He is quoted
in the Cleveland newspapers as saying that
Senator Hanna owned both the supreme
court and the attorney general of the state,
and they had to do his bidding.
Mayor Johnson has put himself in the
very peculiar position as a candidate for
the governorship, of boiling a part of the
platform That platform repudiates the
pending proposition to amend the state con-
stitction to give the governor the veto
power. Mayor Johnson favors that amend
ment and this is about the only point at
which the state convention did not do
exactly as he wanted it to do In his
very first speech after the convention the
mayor announced that he did not indorse
the conventions action on this amendment
and he would vote the republican ticket
to the extent of voting for the amendment.
The republican state convention Endorsed
the proposition. The anti-Johnson demo-
Gratis are now saying that If the head of
the ticket bolts. he cannot blame the rank
and file of the party for doing so, and that
one plank of the platform is as binding
upon the party as another
Chairman Of Committee.
Charles P. Salen Of Cleveland, long a
valuable political lieutenant of Mayor John
son, will debut be the chairman of the
democratic state campaign committee. He
has been very successful in Cleveland and
Cuyahoga county politics. but will try, his
hand now, for the first time, in state poll
tics. In General Dick, his opponent. he will
find a chairman of many years experience
in doing just what he will have to do this
year.
Beside Senator Hanna, the speakers at
the opening of the republican state cam
paign at Chillicothe will be Senator For
aker, Colonel Myron T. Herrfck, candidate
candidate for lieutenant governor. Gov
ernor Nash will preside. 1t is proposed to
have demonstration in the form of
parade preceding the speaking. In which
all the famous political clubs Of the state
will take part, including the Blaine Club
of Cincinnati the Rail Splitters of Toledo.
the Tippecanoe Club of Cleveland and the
Buckeye Republican Club Of Columbus.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
COLUMBUS, Ohio, September THE two
weeks that have passed since the turbulent
democratic state convention adjourned have
not quieted all the dissensions in the party
which developed in the proceedings of the
convention. The most bitter dose to the
radical element Of the party seems to be
the nomination of Clarke-the sound money
democrat-for the United States senator
ship. 1t was believed at the time the nomi-
nation was made that they would come into
line slowly under the whip of Mayor John
son, especially If Colonel Bryan Endorsed
the nomination. That Bryan has done, and
yet there is violent objection to Clarke
There was a conference of the radical free
silver democrats at the home of john W.
Bookwalter in Springfield a week ago, hav-
ing for It's object plans to force Clarke
from the ticket.
John ]. Lentz and c. C. Philbrick of this
city were in the conference. Mr.. Lentz de-
clined to talk about the meeting, but
would not deny that such was its object
The objection to Clarke seems to be wide
spread, but still held in check. No one
seems to want to take the leadership,
pecially since Mayor Johnson, who Is in
control of the party machine, and Colonel
Bryan are for Clarke. There is still dan
ger of it breaking out, however.
Opposition to Clarke.
The Columbus Citizen. hutchinson demo-
cratic organ, said editorally last week:
Neither Mr.. Clarke nor any other man
can be elected senator by a state conven-
ton. That performance is the constitutional
duty Of the general assembly. which could
not delegate the power and responsibility in
the premises to any other body, even If it
desired to do so. Neither the nomination
of Mr.. Clarke nor Mr.. Bryan's acceptance
of his candidacy will have any weight with
any democratic member of the legislature
who in accordance with his solemn oath of
office proposes to vote for his choice for
senator, as he Is instructed to do by the
constitution" This would seem to indicate
that the democrats who oppose Clarke will
generally support the ticket. or at least
not bolt it because he Is on it, but oppose
his election by the legislature should that
body prove to have democratic majority
on joint ballot.

A case with very decided bearing upon
the political situation in Cuyahoga county
was passed upon in the supreme court last
Saturday adversely to Mayor Johnson. He
had arranged for a special election to be
held tomorrow for the necessary approval
of proposed issue of S19O0,00O of city
bonds with which to proceed at once with a
number of city improvements. The SUI
preme court was appealed tot is believed
by his political opponents-to restrain the
election on the ground that by the pro-
visions of the new law under which 1t was
to be held large part Of the voting popu-
lation would be disfranchised.
The real object is believed to be to pre-
vent Mayor Johnson from spending this
large amount of money while the campaign
is en-emplOytng vast army Of laborers
and probably voting them at the polls. The
