was sorry to see the Potomacs' eight

In looking over the entries and time,
however, one Is not greatly surprised
by the failure Of washinston's repre-
sentatives in the INST attractive events
in connection with the Philadelphia at

The Detroit Boat Club realized that
1t had cracking good crew. and that
is the reason 1t was sent East. Detroit
was the winner. but the Potomacs gave
the hardest fight for second place In

Case Of Reds" walker.

McAIeer would make no mistake in
giving Reds Walker, the outfelder
who made such sensational debut
with the Nationals, a short rest.
The day Walker came here from the
bush league in Carolina, he was showed
into the lineup. and from that day he
has been under the greatest sort Of q
strain.
He has fallen of In his hitting until
his mark has been cut in half, but an
Improvement might be brought about
by a few days Of service on the bench.
Certainly such q move could do no
damage. considering the uncertain pace
Of the Nationals Of late.

A real triumph.

That victory In California yesterday
did more than anything that has hap
pened during his career in the ring to
silence the critics Of Ad Wolgast
Judges of pugilists in every section
have maintained from the day he won
the title that Wolgast was a poor sam
pie Of a champion. True he has had
host Of admirers, but there was always
lacking that unanimity Of opinion Of
his capabilities that characterized ex-
perts who passed on his predecessors
who held the lightweight crown.
Now, however. with Moran out Of the
running, there does not appear to be
any one within the regulation weight
who looms up as dangerous opponent
to wolgast. Lke.them all he will some
day meet his defeat, but just now he
looks like the master.
There are many Washingtonians to-
day who are none too pleased with the
result Of the bout yesterday. Moran had
a large following here that was will
ing to back him at the short end Of the
bets. and a lot Of money was burned
I'D when wolgast landed victor.

BOARD or TRADES pRoaRAM

BOARD OF TRADES PROGRAM.
1t is an ambitious program that
the Board of Trade has mapped out
for itself, but not too ambitious.
This is an ambitious city, filled with
ambitious people. 1t is fitting,
therefore, that we should have an
organization to lead us and further
our ambition.
No one a deny that the Board
of Trade has done a great work with
the means at hand and the support
given. The present board has long
outliyed its predecessors. This Is
largely due to the fact that it has
attended strictly to business. 1t is
worthy of note that it has not held
a banquet or a elambake since 1t
al organized.
Every progressive city needs
some public spirited body the prin-
cipal aim of which is to further the
interest of that place. IL has often
been said that Perth Amboy has
grown in spite of herself. The in
dustries that have made the place
have come here moi because any
special inducements have been offer
ed, as is the case In nearly all man
ufaeturing cities, but because of the
natural advantages to be found
here. Having such a foundation to
work on, there is no telling what
the Board of Trade can do if given
the proper encouragement and sup
port. Every citizen should be glad
to lend a helping hand. An appro-
priation by the city could not be
made for a better cause. If those
who are inclined to find fault with
some of the details In the manage
ment of the board would get in and
help correct the mistakes and do
what they could to strengthen the
organization, who is there who
would say the ambition of the Board
of Trade is impossible Of accom-
plishment?

THE FATE OF BEATTIE.
There fs HftIe sympathy FOR Hen-

ry Clay Beattie, Jr, who must die
November "a for the murder Of his
wife. The crime was one Of the
worst that has ever come before the
American public. 1t is the story
of q fast young man, a member of
a prominent southern family, mar
rying a respectable girl and then de-
l~iberately killing her in order that
he might return to his old life.
The evidence by which he was
convicted was purely circumstan-
tial. No one, as far as known, saw
the crime committed, yet a jury of
twelve men decided that the facts
at hand were sufficient to condemn
the fellow and even his prominent
family connections did not save him.
The whole country, viewing the case
from what has been published, be-
lieyes that justice has been done.
Governor Mann, of Virginia, to
whom q final appeal was made,
seems to have put what final eom-
ment was necessary to the verdict
when he declared, in refusing to in
t~erfere with the carrying out of the
death sentence, that 81 believe the
best way to prevent such crimes as
this is to punish them adequately,
certainly. speedily"
There have been SO many mis-
trials, delays, and pardons in muir
| der cases, particularly when the per
sons accused is at all prominent.
that people have begun to al
justice and human life has come te
be considered very cheap. The fate
OF Beattie ought to have a whole
some effect. Let us hope hal this
viii establish a precedent for muir
der trials that will be more general,
ly followed than heretofore.
