CowrLictixe WIites to the Sun > In view of the couilicting construction put upon the late adjournment of Congress, there is difficulty in determing the status of sev- eral important and many inferior officers of the Government. The Aaministrauion bas treated the action of Congress, im taking the so called recess, as au sosolute adjournment in contemplation of the Constituuon. Some Republican members of Congress bave construea their action as being, for all legal purposes, in effet the same as though both Houses had been adjourned tw re- sume business the next day alter. The mem- bers dispersed are, in other werds, but ad- journea trom day to day. Af the postition of the Administration on this subject be correct, then, according to the ten- ure-of-office law, there are numerous offices made vacant or placed in abeyance by the journment om the 27th uit, among thein the missions to Russia, Venezuela, Ecuador, and many revenue offices, and the President can- not appoint uew incumbents until Congress meets. Bot if the effect of the adjournment is that Which it is construed to be by certain Kepup- lican members, nominations for these offices and the Commissioner of Internal Revenue are still pending before the Senate, to be taken up nd acted upon hereafter by that body without further action by the President. These ques- tions are to be submitied i Attorney General Evarts at once tor his opinion thereon.

The questions asked are merely whether the office is now vacant And whether the President may fill it if va- cant. The Attorney General feels the legal and Politcal importance of these questions, and in fact, of all the questions now before him re- Inting to vacancies in offices filled by the con- sent of the Senate. He will probably give no opimion im any oue until the entire ground covered by the subject is theronghly studied They will be considered not merely as legal questions, but in the light of sound statesman- ship. In the latter respect Mr. Evarts has a character to make and be will not forego the opportunity.

Clara Clarita won the first race Spotted Fawn got away with a lead of two lengths, which was, however. reduced by Clara before she reached the homestretch, the fillies having been started at the Lalt-mile pole. As they came up the stretch Clara took the lead but at the stand they were head and head, the Spotted Fawn bursting her bellows in gewing there. Clara then left her and ran aloug steadily Under a pull to the end, winning by a couple of lengths in a canter in 2:46 The second race was a three mile dash be- tween Pat Malloy anc James A. Connolly. tue former being the favorite by long odds. Con- uolly got offa length in front, which be held @ronnd the turn and to the quarter pole. On the backstretch Pat closed with bim and lay on his flanks to the balt mile pole. On the lower turn they were nose and tail, Connolly still Jeacing, in which way they ran uutil near the stand, when Pat mude a burstand they went under the string head and head in i:43;. They ran yoked around the turn, Pat on the outside, and at the quarter pole be was haifa length ahead. Atthe half wile pole be wasa length nda bait in tront awd ou the lower turn two lengths. He came on the home stretch a length and ahalf in advance, but Connolly made a dash at him up the stretch, ani they again went under the string head aad bead. Time of the second mile 1487, and of the two miles 337. Going around the turn Pat again shot away ond ied to the quarter pole two lengths, and it was pretty generally conceded that he was to be the Winnips borse, Pat was two lengths on the lead down the back stretch and on the lower turn. Tien it was tbat one hun- dred te twenty was offered on him ail over the grounds. As he rounded imto the home stretch his jockvy took the mside position, which was the heaviest part of the track, while Connilly’s rider picked out the hardest ground in the cen- tre of the track. Connolly gained gradually on Patto the drawgate. where the latter began to shorten bis stride. and by a vigorous and gailant run in Connolly won by two lengths, making the Inst mile ‘nu i:54.¢, and the three miles in 5:31. ‘The third race was between Stonewall Jack- son, Sundown and Gilroy, and was won by the former, Sundown making a good fight, and Gilroy trailing far bebind. Sandown was awsy first, Stonewall second, Gilroy third. Tl Y,went oma hand gallop across the field, the jockeys having orders to make a waut- ing race. Alter playing in this way for a quarter of a mile Sundown went about his business. followed by Stonewall Jackson, Gil- roy bringing up the rear. Sundown was two lengths in front at the lalf-mile pole, Stone- ‘wall seci two lengths ahead of Gilroy. ‘There was no visible difference in the distance between them until they approached the stand, when Stonewall ran np closer to the colt and Gilroy fell further off. They were now full: extended. Leavwing the stand Stonewall play at tbe colt and reached his flank atthe quarter pole, and he lay there all the way lowm the backsiretch. On the lower turn Stonewall got to the shoulders of the colt, and as they swung tuto the homestretch they colt was but a neck ahead. Stonewall was pulled out into the middle of the track, while the rider of Sundowu kept bim close on the inside. Stonewall swerved to the right and lost a length betore be was straighiened. A tew lashes were given him, which straigbrened him again, and he got away nicely after that for a short distance. He again swerved, how- over, and a repetition of tbe whip had to be applied. Shouts were then hear, “Sundown wins!” but in an instant afterwards it was perceptible that the colt was ia diffi- cvltier, and also was getung the Insb. He is to shorten his stride, and finaliy was all abroad, and stonewall coming on him with ‘ush, beat him a neck and shoniders at the string. Time of the last mile 1:46, and of the mile Sud three-quarters 3:13 It is supposed by racing men im the case of Pat Mulloy in the second race and Sundown ir the third race taat they los! by reason of having four pounds extra weight to carry for want of lighter jockeys, “3 MakRIED IN CouRT—A you German named Francis C.
