It 1s alarge national banner, and bears the inscription: “We trust to God and fear no danger.” It was found to de so well preserved that it will be carried in fe line next Tuesday. There was also in the Yoom one of the old hats of the Anacostia, which Its owner, Mr. James McCathran, said had been in his possession over fifty years, Among those present were J. J.

Letters Were read from President Halloway, of Ralumore, stating that his association bad ‘re. ceived un invitation from the citizens’ committee of Alexandria to visit that city on the 22d, and one from the Alexandria company inviting tle Wash- won assoclation there with thelr guests. Sol. Gary seid that he had anticipated that the invitation would be accepted, and had visited Alexandria and made some Inquiries, The Alex- ‘andrians were quite anxious for the veteran fire- men to join them, and he was quite sure that they would receive an old Virginia welcome. ‘The com- mittee informed him that they would entertain the visitors and would be able to take care of 5,000. He believed that 12 would be pleasant to the old doys from Baltimore, after they had been shown about Washington, to goto Alexandria. He sug- gested a line of March trom the depot tothe at's, thence to the West End and Northern Lib- erties and down to the wharf, leaving for Alexan- ria at 12:30 o'clock. The invitation was accepted. ‘Messrs Suuth and Acton, the music comunittee, Were directed to engage field music. Upon motion of ‘Mr. Newmyer, Col. Gary was appotnted the orator of the das, to welcome the ors and introduce them at thé White House. A committee was appolnted to obtain leave to have the eight or ten of the veterans who were members of ‘the present paid department join in the procession. ‘The executive committee held a meeting subse- quently and decided to request the members to Wear black suits and hats and white gloves. They decided also to act as a reception committee, The Une of march was discussed, but not finally settled. es ‘THE EMANCIPATION PROCESSION. The Chase Side Elects a Chief Mar shal—The Convention Last Night. ‘The Emancipation convention, held at the Capt- tal City Guards’ armory last night, resulted in a ‘Victory for what is known as the Chase faction. ‘The speeches made were all in the interest of har- mony, and good-nature characterized the proceed- ings of the convention, though occastonally there Would be an uproar over some parllamentary Point. ‘There were about 200 persons present, rep- Teseuting various district clubs, church, benevo~ lent and social organizations, Mr. Daniel Still- yard, who called the convention to order, used the broken end of a loaded cane as a gavel, and used it with good effect. He called upon Mr. Andrew Childs to open the proceedings with prayer, tak- tug precaution to request only a “short prayer.” ‘The contest for the temporary chairmanship was Detween John W. Freeman, nominated by the Carson side, and R.D. RufMh, nominated by the Chase side.” There was cousiderabie confusion Over the election, many delegates destring to talk ‘at once and crowding about the chairman's table. Mr. W. H. Brown, who was acting as secretary, Degan a speech by saying— “The me .ds are like coals of ‘Here some one shouted “No Shakspeare.” ‘The chairman looked ina grieved way at the secre- tary, rapped the table vigorously and said: “Mr. Brown, you will please keep stil” Mr. Brown meekly Sat down and order was restored. Mr. Brown counted the vote for temporary chairman, and announced that Mr. Ruffin had 53.and Mr. Freeman 40. Some delegates seemed to think ‘that there had been a miscount, but the vote as announced Was sustained and’ the convention wuifested confidence in Mr. Brown by electing temporary secretary. WHY ME. CAKSON WOULD NOT SERVE. Acommittee on credentials, composed of Wm. Calvin Chase, chairman; P. H. Carson, Lewis Wil- Its Arthur Goings, W. H. Barker, Mortimer Dor- sey, Daniel Washington, Charles H. M: Charles H. Alexander, C."H. Braxton, W. C. Cox and J. R. C. Reed, was appointed. After the com- mittee had retired from the hail Mr. Carson came back and declined to serve. “I cannot serve with that committee,” he sald. “<I won't go where they are gone.” “<{ would like to know,” asked a delegates“where they are gone?” “Never mind,” said the chairman. Vell, we ought to know.” sald the delegate, doggedly; but his curiosity Was not gratitied. Mr. Carson Was excused and Mr. 8. & Jones appointed im his place. SPEECHMAKING. Whilethe cofhmittee was out speeches were made by Kev. Robert Johnson, Raiph Wormley, John W. Freeman and Chas. F. Mosby. Mr. Freeman spoke of the criticisms passed upon col- ored meetings for ee es oe the a siature,” “woul ce term py would learn something. ieilave never seon a meeting of negroes, but Ihave seen It worse in the Howe of Represehtatives Ihave seen bowte knives and pistols offered there before the war.” He expressed great hope for the col- cored race, and referring to the col troops in the war sald: “We came out as corporals and ser- geants.

They cab ¢: the roll.” He said Uhat negroes were just like other men. Some negroeseven, he said, bave the audacity to be democrats. “We are going to do,” he sald, “just as the white men bave done in this country.” ‘Mr. Mosby speaking on the question of order in meetings sald they had only to go to the Columbia ‘Law scuool building to see how white men did it. ‘There a class had bee in continuous seston for three weeks to elect a chairman, and bad not effected it yet. All tue Speakers counselled harmony, and de- clared against “any more two processions,” or 80 conducting themseives as to have the President's: Sates closed against them again, ‘VICTORIES FOR CHASE, ‘The convention did not close its business until midnight. Mr. C. F. Mosby was elected permanent chairman, defeating Mr. Freeman by a vote of 71 Yo 5d, and W. H. Brown was elected permanent weeretary. Kev.

To-day the National league ts composed of nine clubs, After Monday the number will be reduced to eight, for on that day the league committee will meet in Pittsburg to determine finally the compo- ‘sition of the league for thecoming season. Noone knows toa certainty what the result of that meet- ing will be, but it’s considered probable that Indl- anapolls will get the eighth place, and both Kan- sas City and St, Louis will be dropped. ‘There may be something going on underneath the surface Which will prevent the realization of such a pre- diction when the time comes for action, It 18 not very dimcult to see which way the cat will Jump, however, unless something of the kind should de- velop. St, Louis 13 a8 good as out of the league, but the sale of her franchise and players to Kan- sas City will have to be ratified by the leaguo committee before it can stand, There 1s not one chance in a hundred that this will be done. The league 1s represented by a committee consisting of President Young, Spaulding, of and Day, St New York, fwo ot ches gentlemen’ have tue interests of home clubs to look after as well as those of the league, but President Young has an eye forthe good of the whole e. palding has unoflclaliy expressed his individual approval of the transfer of the St. Louis club to City in accordance with the recent purchase.

President Young wi therefore bold THE BALANCE OF POWER * in Monday's conference, and as he 1s to represent the wishes of the c:ubs tn the league, it 18 not very difficult to foresee the result, particularly as all of the other clubs have signified their prefer. ence for Indianapolis, and the majority of them have done so oMcially. ‘The princi tothe retention of Kansas City in {ts inaccessibility, causing loss money, The Cowboys have. played and have made a gallant fight, but It settled that they will not take part gamesot 1887. Assuming that the inittee will give the eighth place to. Indlanaj the events that follow such a decision will unusual interest to the base ball public, natural to infer that Indianapolis will be mitted to purchase the franchise of one of the going clubs, while the league committee wilh the other in the name of the league. The distr. ution of players of the club to be purchased by the league may be left, however, untill the league meeting in March. KANGAS CITY AND INDIANAPOLIS. ‘There are a number of reasons for believing that. the Kansas City club will go to Indfanapolis. ‘The Jeague doesn’t want to risk the loss of any money in the transaction, and would preter to have the t. Louls players to dispose o ‘a certaint that by selling Denny and a few others to the hig) all the St, Louts players ($15,000) could be realized 4m forty-eight hours. It would be to the advantage ven to the weaker clubs, a3 the Srould be more nearly equalized: but the enhances are that the biggest pile will take the men. That means Denny will go to New York and Glasscock to Chicago. "Spaulding Las the$10,000 he received for Kelly the other day with which to buy Glass. cock, and it is doubtful if any other club could keep pace with him in bidding with the ready cash he as at his disposal, Very he let Kelly go inorder that he might be sure of getting Glass cock. ‘The former 48, perhaps, the more valuable man, but Spaulding knew that Kelly dissatisfied would not be as valuable to Chicago as Glasscock im complete accord with the Chicago team. He very sensibly refused to release Kelly to New York. By giving him to Boston he removed the only obstacle In the way of Chicago's securing Glasscock, for Boston was bound to have one or the other, ‘and was willing to pay a large sum, as has Deen Seen, New York will not, stand in Spaulding’s way in this matter, for the man ‘wanted by the Gothamites to take Es: terbrooke’s place at third. Philadelphia would like Glasscock, but would doubtless be distanced in bidding by Chicago, with $10,000 lying around Ieadling players wil be given to two ot the strom yers W iven to two of ‘the strong- est clubs, and the other St. Louls players dist buted to those who are willing to pay for them, ‘THE HOME TEAM. ‘Washington may or may not be benefited. The weak spot in the home team is short-stop, but with the exception of Denny and Glasscock the St.Louis club has no tnflelders needed here. Boyle might de a strong addition to our pitchers if he couid be obtained without great expense. Wash- ington would fare better if the St. Louls men should go to Indianapolis and the Kansas City men distributed to the other clubs. Then there would be a chance of securing Myers, who 1s much wanted here to play shortstop. ‘Although it cannot be expected that the home management tor Glasscock or Denny, it 13 hoped that no. good for Glasscock or Ss at n¢ ebance will be lost to strengthen the home team. Burdock ls still on the market, but it is a question whether worth the uy ae nate eee s second, but he might prove a valuable man at short if he would take care of himself. Nothing of particular interest has transpired during the week in Washington base ball circles. ‘The Provi- dence contingent—Hines, Carroll, Gilligan and Shaw—are still unsigned, but théy are expected to sign when Manager Gaffney returns, in about a week, Inthe mean time the home management 4s on the lookout for anything that willstrengthen the Capital team. BASE BALL NOTES. ‘The Pit club will have new to meet its teagwe vais on this season Sore some rs have iy made up their a in the coming season's race, and that Detrolt, Will end first. Spaulding says Anson makes more money than any other player in the country. ‘The Boston infield is the roughest in the particularly around second base where ‘Was at home, Detroiters cannot wait for the ball season to open, but are base ball on roller skates, ‘The Phillies are to give $5,000 for Glass- cock but Chicago will give Kelly's price for him Af necessary. ‘The rush for young players has stopped and managers are looking around for the old and tried layers. Pipurdock says he can play third baso as well as anybody, and wants a chance on some other club poutien Boston. New York doesn’t want him. Does if the present intention of the league officials to fine each man found drunk the sum of $200 1s car- ried out, the probabilities are that there will be some excellent games played during the season. Esterbrook’s work with the Metropolitans will be watched this season with a critical eye. No doubt many of his old admirers will draw com- parisons between bis work and that of the third in Who succeeds him in the New York club, Krieg, who is wintering in St. Paul, Minn., says he is inexcellent health, and expects ww do service for Wi ton on beanie Au Lossers have this expectation before play begius, but it is believed that Krieg will realize his, Johnson, of the Bostons, was the champton fly- catcher of the league last year, capturing forty-six more of them than any other player. He covers a great deal of ground, and will try for anything. Kelly thinks that both Brouthers and Anson Will be seriously affected by tbe new batting rules, The former cannot doariything with a high ball, and the latter never struck at a low bail be- fore'in his life. Lately, however, Anson has been practicing with low balis six hours dally. Jim O’kourke, of the New Yorks, it is sald, has refused point Blank to catch this season, because he impairs his usefulness as_a batter by catching. i al af eee ie a | § 53g wae er He is unsurpassed a3 a back stop, and this decis- fon, if carried out, will be detrimental to New York at limes, ‘The Boston people are delighted with the acqi sition of Kelly.

A MEMORASLE DICER AND THE PABTIOIPANTS—B1G SPRAKERS WHO WERE NOT CALLED UFON TO SFRAK SOME SPECDAEN LOCAL HEROES OF GOTHAM, Correspondence of Tax EvExrxe STAR. ae New York, Feb. 18 ‘The republican club of this city is an associa- tion of bright young fellows almost unknown in political circles, They are witty, well-dressed and imbued with an active party spirit. ‘They are the frisky chipmunks of local poittics, who le dormant 1m cold weather and who skip along worm fences ‘and bound over stone walls when autumn comes and nutsare falling. On February 12 the club ‘was asleep, but on the next day it awoke to find {tself famous. It had celebrated Abraham Lin- coln’s birthday by giving the most memorabledin- ner recorded in the history of the party. The festive glories of the Union club were wi) out im night. ‘The spruce young. fellows had abd Bian tn Bon the back of republicanism in city.

Ben Harrison Sparked lixe Algol, Ogiesby“crinkiea lke Ve and Henry Cabot resembled Sirus in dog days," The brightest twinkler of all, however, @O¥. FORAKER, OF OHIO. ‘His intellectual brilliancy recalled the glories of the lost star in Cassiopia, No political Tycho Brahe could observe its radiance without exhib. sting breathless interest. Astronomers through- out the country are already casting its orbit and speculating as to its tate. Foraker really evoked an enthustasm rivalled only by that exercised by Henry W. Grady at the New England dinner. Prisms of pure wit made his trenchant logic and superb eloquence iridescent. ‘The effect was in- tensified by his snapping eyes, graceful gestures and resonant voice. “the applause was spontane- ousand unrestrained. Napkins were waved, and erery hit was greeted withunbounded entiustasm After Foraker came Harrison. His address drew Tepeated encomiums, but it lacked the proportion and symmetry of "its predecessor. “ Foraker's ‘speech, like the speech of Grady made in the same room, may make its utterer a candidate for Vice Prestlent, but Harrison's oration can never make ‘him a candidate for President. After Harrison came Chauncey Depew. . He was lucky in being two pegs away from the governor of Ohio, and he was, as usual, uniucky In having his best thrusts and stories mangled Next day by either the reporters or editors, His best story was in comparing the democratic situation to-day with a Peekskill funeral. On looking out of a coach, a passenger saw that the procession had left the road and was wabbilng over dangerous ground in an adjacent field. “Here, where are you going?” he shouted to the coachman. “You're off the road.” “Thav’s all right,” was the reply. “Sure, in this country we allways follow the lieatse.” Depew’s speech stood in marked contrast to that or Frank Hiscock, which was grave and digniiled, and sounded like a prearranged echo from te ‘U.S. Senate chamber. GLORIOUS DICK OGLESBY. A rip-roaring, old-fashioned, brass-mounted ad- dress was that of Gov. Oglesby, of Dlinols. Uncle Dick wore big spectacles and an antiquated broad- cloth suit. His bald head glistened as he became warmed with the fervor of his eloquence, He pounded the table until the glasses Jingled again and again. Then he began to mow a swath to ‘his left. He grew so demonstrative that he forced Joe Hawiey, Gov. Lounspury, Chauncey Depew, Senator Aldrich and Speaker Husted back to thé ‘wall to escape the sweep of hisarms, As one after another fell back, the guests screamed with laughter.’ At first Uncle Dick seemed to think them delighted with his quaint western way of talking, but when even Jimmy Husted turned tail and a hurricane of merriment killed the effect of a Diizzard of eloquence, the old general “tumbled to the racket,” and thereafter held pimselt in bounds, Henry Cabot Lodge’s remarks were as coldly. classic as some of George William Curtiss’ efforts. He did not seem to sympathize with Joe Hawley’s assaults on the men who Killed Blaine, He seemed glad to have escaped the fate of the prodigal son, owever. Employment as a swineherd is hardly in his fine, and he was evidently looking tor & fatted calf. After abusing the administration and complaining of its manner of dealing out the fod- der, he squatted once more in the family rocker, with 1 arms and placid face, antiated by faint applause. ‘vhis dinner Was made all the more remarkable by the presence of many great men, who were not invited to speak. Among tuem were ex-Govs.Fen- ton, of Onio, and Corned, of New York; Thomas C. Platt, Gov. Beaver, of "Pennsylvania; Whitelaw Heid, Wm. M. Evarts, Noah Davis, Stephen B. Hiking, Eithu Koot, James Arkell, John A.sieigher, Geo. H. Sharpe, stewart L. Woodford, and Levi M- Bates. ‘The applause over the reading of a letter from James G. Blaine was deatening, but not 0 ‘great as that Which greeted Foraker's address, Again, Lsay that it was a great dinner, ‘but neither (a8 great nor as remarkable as It would have been it Roscoe Conkling and Robert G. Inger- soil had been present. And both were in the city. A LOCAL HERO OF GOTHAM. ‘The death of Larry O’Brien caused more talk in New York than the taking off of John A. Lo- gan. There is something curious about the in- terest the town takes in the life of a local hero. O’Brien was a typical New York boy; a politician, gambler and ‘a rounder, and was known from oe end of the island to the other. He seemed to have all the qualities which win admiration in what might be called in the surface soclety of New York, He had one distinction, which is very highly prized by men of his kind.’ Like the late James W. Morrisey, he was a great “bar room fighter” and the battles that he won were spoken of by the habitues of bar rooms and cafes with bated breath. Bar room fighters are men who have a particular and openly expressed contempt for protessional pugilists of whom they speak as “looking glass fighters.” It is a special delight ot the sport to lick’ man who has a reputation in the ring and the fearlessness and pluck of the av- erage bar room fighteris beyond question. O’Brien showed his nerve in many instances, ‘The last one that 1 remeber was his attack on Pete \cCoy,, the mntddle wetg! st, one night three ears Ago at the Madison Aquare kardene Moves national reputation as a hard hittter, was in perfect training and known to be a man of high courage. He was bigyer, stronger and younger than O'Brien, but the’ latter juioped tor iin nevertheless and had him well in band when the men were dragged apart. Larry O'Brien loved Broadway. After he had been cut half to pleces by ‘Truman’ he was con. fned a long while in the hospital, but as soon as he was able to walk he crept out on Broadway Where he used to move feebiy about in’ the sun, attended always by his devoted friends, He was then as pale as a corpse, his arm was in a sling and his general condition pitiable, ‘The true story of his quarrel with ‘Truman has never been pub- Mshed and probably never will be by any repu- ‘Table paper, because it involves the name of one of the most generous and popular of men and of a Woman who is universally esteemed. ‘TWO OTHER FAMOUS SPORTS. Perhaps the most intimate friend of O'Brien's was Pat Sheedy, whose ups and downs in life would make @ wonderful story af sdventure. Sheedy fs a calm, serene, equitable and placid who hasacold gray eye and has never yet Diuffed or rattled. His attire is invariably most faultless rp, and he neither drinks nor Smokes. He f the only man who ever hed absolute control over Sullivan, and it is said that they have had but’ one quarrel, At the ith of it Sullivan uttered a violent It is satd that ‘andever since that.
