He explained that the principal reason was, that “if ‘We arrest these fellows, We shall have to appvar against thei during the hours that we are off duty, and we got noting for this Ume, and conse- quently 10 1s our loss, otherwise it would be differ- ent.” If bis is the real reason why tue police of Uiselty sometimes shirk thelr auty, It i high Ume the Commissioners of the Districtor Major Moore looked iuto the matter.

Tic! oe Lh Ht " AN EXCITING SCENE, ‘The Sudden and Almost Tragic End of the Potomac Regatta. | BOATS SWAMPED AND CREWS STRUGGLING WITH THE WAVES—HOW THE POTOMACS WERE SAVED—BRAVE ‘RESCUERS—TWO RACES FINISHED—FROVOKING DE- Lays. ‘The Potomac-river regatta yesterday afternoon ‘Was brought to a sudden and almost tragic termi. | Ration by the unusually severe storm before the | program was half carried out. The course wasamile and a half long from tue Columbia lauding above the free-bridge, to a point near the Potomac boat house. The terrible storm was not the only’ dis- appointing event ofthe day. There was a delay of almost an hour fu starting the races. A failure to Secure In time a permit from the steamDoat in- Spector for the tugs to carry the passengers was ‘the cause. As the same thing has happened before, it would seem that some better arrangements should be made, if the boat clubs desire to keep up the Interestof the public in boat races. The crowd at the finish can at the best see but a small part of a race, and to be compelled to go early toget a good position, and then to wait an additional hour before there are any signs of a race, will cool th ardor of che most enthusiastic. THE FIRST RACE was started by Referee Watts at 3:30 o'clock. It Was for four-oared senior crews, and the contest- ants were the Passaics, of Newark, and the Co- Jumbias and Potomacs, of Wasulngtop. It prom- ised to be an exciting struggle, but it wasn’t. The Columbia had the Virginia shore, the Potomacs hext and the Passaics had the middle of the river. As the shells were backed up to the stake boats Elder, the Columba bow oarsman, called the ref. eree’s attention to a cove about a’ half mile down the river apd said: “Look out for a foul there. I gon’t “intend to be crowded out of our water.” “Are you ready—Go,” Sang out Mr. Watts, and the three boats shot away on about equal terms. At the quarter the Potomacs swung over pretty close to the Cos lumolas, but straightened out at a warning call from the referee. As the crews neared the a nile buoy the Potomacs. lually closed in on the Columbias, who were iding well to their course. ‘The shells were side by side, andthe distance be- tween the starboard oars of the Potomacsand the port oars of the Columbias decreased with each Stroke. Finally the oars coll and the boats ‘Stopped. When the foul occu ‘the Potomacs nad a trifling lead, as the blade of the bow oar of the Columbias was broken by a Potomac waist oar. ‘The Passaics were, if anything, slightly anead of the others. The Potomacs were ruled out, and the others were again started from the fouling 1s ‘The Passaics soon took a commanding and won With hands down, in 827. THE FOUL, while not Intentional, could have been avoided easily, and those who saw It were exasperated. ‘The Potomac boat could have been straightened out with a slight turn of the rudder when ft was seen Uhat there was danger of a collision. ‘The second race for junior fours was contested by the Columbias, Potomacs and Artels, of Balti- more, aud was won easily by the Columbias in 8.53 4.5; Ariels second, 9.15. While'the races were slowly progressing, threat- ening clouds were gath-ring in the west, forebod- ing a storm of unusual severity. ‘The referee's tug Sveamed up the river, however, to start the third race, Mr. Watts thinking the race could be Nnished ‘verore the storm should break. The aco was for four-oared gigs, and the contestants Were the Columbias and Potomacs, The Colum- bias were late in arriving at the starting point, so Ubat when the word was given the wind began to rise, and belore the race was half Onished It was blowing a gale. “It is lucky those Doats are gigs and not shelis, or they Would be swamped,” Was frequently retharked on board the tugs. AN EXCITING TINE. ‘The waves dashed against the oarlocks and wa- ter was shipped at every stroke im both boats. Above the bridge Coxswain Gibson turned the Co- lumbia gig toward the Virginia shore in hopes of finding smoother water. It was well that be did so. Tue wind blew harder, rain and hail came down In torrents, and the Waves below the bridge grew larger. SUill the crews struggled on. Cox- Swain Doyle kept the Potomac boat in a straight course In the center of the river. Had he steered it toward either shore 1t would have been instanuly swamped. “The oarsmen labored on in a Vain “effort to reach the finish. At each stroke the Potomac gig sank jower and lower untill there were but a few inches of her gunwaie vistble. A moment more and Coxswain Doyle was waist deep in the water. “She's swamped,” was the cry tat was repeated on all sides, but few reslized the danger. The storm had driven all the pleasure boats to shelter, fand the tugs nearly capsized in turning around 1 give assistance to the crew, who were struggling in the water, clinging to the half submerged gig. Everybody Was anxious to help, and yet they were almost powerless. ‘The tugs nearly collived with one another in attzmpting to get close to the crew, who were fast losing their strength, and Chere was imminent danger of running down ‘those Uey were trying tosave. Any atvempt to throw a line from a tug was fruitless, for the wind would not aliow it to go a haif dozen eet. IT WAS AN AGONIZING SCENE, and spectators anxiously counted the heads which appeared after each wave passed over them to see if all were still holding out. Life-preservers were thrown from the Dixie, and one was caught by Coxswain Doyle, and he thereupon let go of the gig. In the meantime several large pleasure boats fad putout from the shore, Dat it was slow work Towing in the teeth ‘of the storm. The first “boat reached J. H. Doyle, but he cried out, “I'm all Fight, help the others.” ‘One man of the crew, Robinson, could not swim, and his companions’ generously helped him to battle against the waves. But they had over- estimated thelr strength, end in a few moments more all would have been drowned. Elmore and Reynoids, who had been heiping Robinson, were compietely exhausted when a boat came alongside and rescued them. Doyle was picked up. and Dyercaught rope from a tug and was hauled on board. But Robinson, the man who could not swim a stroke, was clinging desperately to the upturned giz. Suddenly a big waite row boat made Its way among the tugs, and a clear steady voice was heard above the storm, “If you'll keep the tugs away We'll save him.” No time was lost a..d there was none to lose, Strong arms lifted Robluson into the boat, but _he was so weak he could scarcely sit up. He'was quickly rowed to the Potomac House and placed under @ doctor's care. A BRAVE DEED. ‘When ft was seen that the tugs could not rescue the crew, a dozen willing hands seized the big white row-boat ip the Columbia boat-house and Tushed it down the incline. When it slid off the float, however, one man in a striped rowing suit made a spring and landed init. He was ‘shoulder Pleasant-faced Fred. Freeman, No. 2 of the champion Passaic crew. There was another man that wanted to go with him. He was Horace L. Beail, of the Columbia Club. When the boat Struck the water it was carried off by the angry Waves like a shot. Beall hadn't ume to jump, Dut he held on to the stern and was dragged into the water, but soon climbed in and seized a pair of oars. Neither man knew his: Le but each quickly responded to the other’s Girections as they alternately looked around to keep their course, 4nd each knew that he had a brave compauion. ‘They reached the scene of disaster, and it was Freeman's ciear voice that was heard above the ‘storm and revived the failing heart of Robinson, ‘THE COLUMBIAS SWAMPED. While the Potomacs were battling with the waves, the Columbias were ina similar predica- ment near the shore of Analostan Island. Their oat had swamped a few moments after the Poto- mac's gig Went under. They were speedily res- cued by Tow boats, OTHER ACCIDENTS. Eugene Johnson, of the Columbias, and P. E Huneker, of the Iona club; who were rowing up to contest the race for junior singles, were Huneker was picked up by the tug Cectle Johnson swam ashore. A capsized pleasure boat, which floated down the river, ts fears of & fatal accident, but it was learned pants had been rescued. The police boat did ex- celient service. It was lying at the finish when the storm broke. A large boat Irom Anaiostan Isiand, loaded with women and cl among tuem Mrs. Judge Strong, was swept out into the river when about to make a at Cumber- land's. It rode the waves splet until its Lugs lauded Referee Watts ‘Would be postponed unU! 3 u’clock this afternoon. “The most exciung sene that Isaw di storm yestetday,” said Capt.

About thirty members of the Anti-bob-tall-car Association met last night in Melford Hall, 8th ind I streets northeast, for the purpose of advanc- ing their fight against the hated bob-tail. The Meeting was Called to order by the president, Dr. C. A. Norton, who requested the committees ap- Pointed at the last meeting to report. ‘TO HAVE 4 HRARING AT THE DISTRICT BUILDING. Dr. D. B, Stregt, chairman of the committee to ‘ee to the Herdic company, said that they went to ‘the District oMices on last Saturday morning aad saw Major Raymon mn tt their petition that tno Serdaes oe = peed to ran on the north Side of H street, trom North Capitol to 15th street east wnill the south side should be improved by an asphalt pavement. Major Raymond hud stated that be saw no reason why this request should not be wed, and would reier it to Capt. ba the matter would then be considered by thé doard of Commissioners. Dr. Street had heard nothing from the ition, and had gone yesterday Poon ble %& Offices, nding that no action had been taken on it. The paper was shown to Commissioner Wheatley, who said that he had never seen it before, but bak, there ad been certain objections made gran Of the request. The coumittee asked the Drive the matter to the board before it DR, STREET'S STATEMENT OF A CASE. “When I started out for the District building this morning,” continued Dr. Street, “I found that 1t was too hot to walk, I was not well enough to It cost me 10 cents ‘Mr. Wheatley, who lives in George- as far, or more, from the District I do, found when he started to his morning that there were two lines of waiting to take him within @ block of the for 5 cents. 1 think that such a state of ro shows a discrimination against this section city. This doubie-fare system is a tax on all of us out here; We lod that it increases our ly,'and, taking into account the extra car-fare we are to pay, our actual rental amounts to more than what we could get equivalent quarters for up town, where we would huve the comforts, surroundings and accommoda- Uons that make life enduravic. This discrimina- ton is driv: some families out of the neighbor- and wili drive more; and it has caused us, asa “ge tg gd ma te over the cliy cheaply.” Tuis statement of the case Was greeted with ap- plause. ‘THE CONFERENCE WITH THE DIRECTORS, Dr. Norton, chairman of the committee ap- Pointed to meet the direccors of the Columbia road, then made a report of the conference between them on Tuesday afternoon, substantially as re- Ported in yesterday’s Stax. ‘We met a minority of the board,” he said, “and found that they were unauthorized to make any promises. They shoved out their books aud figures and invited us toexam- ine them, but none of us cared to go over them, either as experts or as curiosity hunters. It was ‘the impression lett on tue minus of the committee after tue directors had done their talking that tbe company is doing someting that they do not want Gisciosed. I received to-day a .etler from Presi- dent Willard, staUng that I can get from him 100 shares at $36, the lowest figure at which Columbia ‘stock has ever been gold.” Mr. Seville, another member of this committee, also gave an account of the conference. NRARLY A THOUSAND PLEDGED. ‘The members were asked to bring forward any Pledge lists they had to submit, and a bundle of them soon encumbered the desk of the secretary, Mr. Seville. He said that there were 180 sent out imally, and forty had cole in, thus leaving 140 to be heard from, and afver a rapid count he said that there were 825 names on his desk. “I have fou: Said Chairman Norion, “that a great manyl have approached were willing to sign, but tney were timid lest they might be the only’one in a car to refuse to pass the fare. Now, ‘we must hang together here, and if we do so there will not be a car ruu on the road afver the 1st of September, on which there will not be another ‘man to keep the umid one company.” A member asked whether if he refused to put his fare ia the box and the driver stopped the car ue should Wait? “Yes, walt!” cried another. “Start a little earlier in the morning, start the evening belore,” suggested another. Dr. Norton said tuat Mr. Clagett bad wold him after the conference with the directors that the drivers were instructed to stop thelr cars if a passenger refused to put the fare In the box. TAGS FOR THE PLEDGED. Dr. Wm. Grinsted here arose with a solemn mien Duta twinklein oneeye. “Tie little dogs that bark,” ‘Said be, “‘are the subjects of legislation, and it is now provided that those whose owners have the good fortune vo the funds cun have a tag Uhat exempts them from harm, so that he who Tuns may read that those fortunate antmals bave the right to live and run on the streets without molestation. Now, I suggest that we doh litle legislating for ourselves in the tag line, and have cards printed Dearing Lhese words: ‘I am pledged Rot to puss fares’ Give every signer a card, or a dozen, and whenever a crisis comes and the driver Tiugs for the fare he can draw this littie manifesto Irom bis pocket and declare bis principles muteiy.” This mm met with general approval it Was thougat that the cards would be a conven- fence to the ladies, many of wnom have signed ‘the pledges. ‘Ihe motion was carried, and Messrs. Seviile and Frech were appointed a committee to have suitable cards printed. ‘While it 1s conceded,” then remarked Dr. Street, “chat the means of transport..tion ou this road aré ‘too small, it is also well known that tue cost of transportation 1s too great. We should direct our efforts toward the lessening of the cost. It we do ot do this the neighborhood will suifer.” THE BOB-TAIL DRIVER. ‘The driver of the bob-tail came in as a topic of discussion, and several gentlemen mentioned cases of seeming neglect on the part of the drivers.

The clouds gathered in the southern horizon early in the afternoon, and hardly a breeth of air stirred the heated at- mosphere. These unmistakable signs of a storm were confirmed atout halt-past 4 o'clock with an outburst of unusual violence; a great wind swept over the city, hurrying along blinding clouds of dust, ‘The trées vent betore the furious gale, and signs, awnings and shutters throughout the city ‘swung in the wind, or, wrenched trom their fasten- ings, were borne away.
