in new colonial uniforms, the main foyer

facts and the permission to use their
names. The present work bears such in
ward evidence Of its authorship that
there can be no doubt Of its authenticity.
II is really q remarkable book and thor
oughly readable because II Is such an In
tensely human document, such a monu-
ment to incarnate spite, bitterness and
vengefulness. Those who have known
Goodwin in his genial moments, unless
they have also seen him In his opposite
periods, could hardly credit him with the
authorship Of such q dastardly publica-
ton. Purged Of its spite it might pass
with the usual comment bestowed on the
many compilations Of actors more or
less entertaining "reminiscences, with the
difference that its author is Of our own
time and through his popularity as q
comedian has had opportunity to gain
the acquaintance OF men eminent or well
known in almost every walk OF life.
It is almost inconceivable that this rec
ord OF hate, this betrayal Of the most In
innate and, to every man deserving of
the name, most sacred relations of life
should be permitted to remain in public
circulation. And II is also impossible to
believe that Nat C. Goodwin will ever
again be permitted to appear before an
Idience in which there are American
men or that he shall be permitted to re-
tain his connection with any social or
ganization in which gentlemen are ac-
customed to associate on terms Of re-
spect and equality.

FlonHaley Quartet.

Next Saturday afternoon the FIonzaley
Quartet will make its first appearance in
Washington this season at the Masonic
Auditorium, under the management Of T.
Arthur Smith.
Possibly no musical organization comes
to the Capital that has a stronger or
more loyal following than this. Unique
in many respects. the Quartet ranks alone
not only in this country, but abroad
among chamber music bodies.
Originally organized by a wealthy New
York music lover to play for himself and
friends. the organization takes its name
from his villa on Lake Geneva, "FlonZa-
ley" Although a comparatively young
organization, the quartet is now accepted
everywhere as the standard Of artistic
excellence.
The personnel of the organization is as
follows: First violin, Adolfo Betti; SEC
ond violin, Alfred Pochon: viola, Ugo
Ara: violinceIlo, Ivan D'Archambreau.
The instruments used are a Stradivarius.

 Yet doubt if he can touch me, be- cause he is much slower than I, all though he has an advantage in weight, but I am counting on my science to make up for the deficiency
 Science counts for a great deal in a boxer. So does instinct-the kind of instinct born in a good fighting man tells him what are the intentions of his opponent without any visible evidence. Johnson has this instinct very strongly developed. and I was forcfbly struck by this fact while act ing as referee during the contest with Moran
 -.American boxers, like American people. are very practical. They are not scientific as a rule in outdghting. but recover themselves at inflghting. Bpmbardier Wells, unlike the Ameri- cans, is very scientific for a short distance, but he cannot work at in- fighting.
 T am always at my ease before men like him, and view my coming conflict with. Gunboat Smith with ab- eolute confidence and optimism. Glo- rious, unbounded optimism is the great asset of the fighting man.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET DECLINED.
Steady Drive on Railroad Stocks
 Showed It's Effect.

New York July 1o.-Investment is- sues today began to show the cumula- tive effect of the continued heavy sell ing of Gould stocks. New Haven and Chesapeake and Ohio. as well as varl- ou.5 other low priced securities. These and other stocks and bonds established new low records. The decline in New Haven and Chesapeake was especially noteworthy because they savored strongly of liquidation.
 Another unusual feature was the re- cording of many sales of minor inter national railway stocks for future de- livery. The fact that these sales were made flat" or without interest, pend ing actual delivery. indicated that for eign holders were pressing the sale or American securities Much of this class of trade was traced to Amster- dam. but London. Berlin and Paris also sold, altogether to the extent of about 25,000 shares.
 London's. own markets were heavy on recrudeScence of the Ulster trou- bles, with money and discounts higher. The Paris bourse was weak, and Ber- lin reflected uneasy industrial condi- tions.
 The local market was weakest in the final hour, when selling of the market leaders at concessions overshadowed previous dealings in the unimportant stocks. The speculative favorites fell one to three points on fairly large trad ing, with little or no recovery. There were 20 points decline in the five per cent. bonds of the Chicago and East. ern Illinois railroad. whose affairs Me involved in the St. Louis and San Francisco receivership.
 A few crumbs of comfort were of fered in the course of the day, the United States Steel corporation re- porting a slight increase of tonnage for June, instead of the decrease gen. erally looked for. Copper metal was down fraction. however, and the state of that industry, especially as to demand, was unsatisfactory
 Bank clearings for the week, even allowing for last weeks holiday, show ed a marked decrease. Another heavy cash loss by local banks is looked for tomorrow, with further encroachment on reserves.
 A wide variety of bonds was pressed for sale, but recessions were only nom- inal except in certain issues where special influences operated. Total sales, par value, $1, ,423,0 GOO.

NIckALLs BROTHERS CAUSE
 GUESSING AMONG EXPERTS
Victory of Vale and the Showing of PennsyIvania Attributed to the Eng Iishmen.

The victory of the Yale crew over Harvard at New Lcndon and the won- derful showing of the Pennsylvania eight which finished good second to Columbia and beat out Cornell at Poughkeepsie have revived discussion as to the respective merits of the English and American rowing systems. The Yale and Pennsylvania eights were to a certain extent products of the English methods Guy Nickalls at Yale and Vivian Nickalls at -Pennsyl- vania are Engiishmen and brothers. Both learned their rowing at Oxford university from which they graduated and since then have been teaching their ideas to the youth of England and America
 It is reported that after the officials had declared that Yale had won over Harvard Guy Nickalls remarked this is great day-f England" Possibly he didn't say this but if he did he probably said it again when he heard of how the Pennsylvania eight gen. erally considered a rank outsider at Poughkeepsie was the surprise of the regatta If the success of Yale and Pennsylvania in these two regattas was due to the English system then the ideas of John Bull scored heavily in American rowing this year.
 But the general public undoubtedly has very much confused idea as to
 llt0 ALC4CnCCS III lIl6 6O-N<hAlCu fish and American methods. That diff ference isn't nearly so great as inn agined. There is a slight difference in the rigging of the boats: the Eng Ishmen use the thole pin for the oars instead of the American swivel and there Is slight difference in the stroke But the fact is that the Nick alls brothers did not transplant the entire English system. Vivian Nickalls Il has been in this country for a number Of years. Previous to coaching the Pennsylvania oarsmen he was coach of the Detroit Boat club. When he first took up his work at Detroit Nick al1s taught the English system which
 was the only one he knew. In the meantime he began the study of Amer l ican methods. He isn't a bigoted man | and was quick to see what was good in the methods taught by American coaches and adopted all he could.

 Tn conference with Manager Hughes Friday night he said that he would have to make a few changes in the lineup that he used at the last game with the Sachems. For some of these players have left town or have been signed with other teams, but they are men that have been playing regularly with his team. The only thing that Is bothering the heady man ager is who he will put in the box. Howson has been signed and is play ing with the Colonial league; Houli- han, the twirler that had the scalp of the Sachems attached to his belt but lost it in the eighth and ninth inning in the first game of the series, has joined the Voluntown team Mara, Johnny has booked to pitch to- day against Attawaugan. His only choice left is Brazil or Phillips and he says the latter most likely will do the hurling. Manager Hughes has high

GIANTS AND REDS
 TRADE PLAYERS
Marsans. Hobiitzel and Bates Will Go
 to New York.

Manager Charley Herzog of the Reds has announced that he has completed deal that will bring four or five new players to the Cincinnati Club.
 While HerZog would not mention the names of the players involved in the deal on either side, it is known, how ever, that two Giants certainly and per- haps one or two more will soon De cha sing around in Rcd uniforms, while a like number of Red players will be drawing salary from the New York Club
 In baseball circles it was stated that Dick Hoblitzel, first haseman; Johnny Bates. outfielder of the Reds, and Ar mando Marans, crack outfelder, the latter of whom the Reds enjoined from pla wing with the St Louis Federals, will be traded for Snodgrass and Mur- ray of the Giants. It is also stated that a New York pitcher will come to Cin- cinnati, too
 Several days ago Marsans, who Is now in St Louis, announced that he would play with no other team except the Giants
 Hitting strength must be secured to keep the club in the first division, said Herzog ''anc within three or four days there will be many new faces in the lineup
 The Red Club must and will remain in the first division. There are no two ways about it, and expect the club tc begin climbing against the Eastern teams"

 Sunday marks the reopening of the Sachems and All Stars series and 1t is hoped that the remaining games of the series will be played off Accord ing to indications the series are on a good basis and both teams arc anx- ious to have this series one that the fans will not forget, for nothing but clean and up- to-date sports will be seen.
 Since the last game the Sachems have undergone a change in manager ship as now only one man is manager, while before two were assuming that role and things did not progress as well as was expected. Now the team is working harmoniously together and nothing prevails more than this in a baseball team. A team cannot play winning ball without all playing to- gether and working with one another.
