Unfair Treatment Charged Against Political Adversaries at Baltimore. tomers in the Distriet of Columbia, advertise in} The entire mortaing sedhion of the Maryland Farmors’ Alliance yesterday at Baltimore was taken up with the dispute in Anne Arundel county as to the legal existence of » suballi- The St. Louls Team Gavejthe Senators a Set-| “2° organized at Odenton, Anne Arundel county, some months ago. The question in- volved the right of the Anne Arundel delegates to seats in the convention, and they were finally refased admission. The suballiance was organ- ized by Jacob S. Barroll, one of the alliance organizers, and included in its membership Gen. Frank A. Bond and John Bannon, both politicians, but both of them farmers. After the organization Prof. Samuel Garner, an Anne Arundel county farmer and the assistant pro- fessor of French at the Naval Academy, and Wm. 8 Ridgely of the Annapolis ican, both members of the Annapolis alliance, op- posed its admission to the county and sta organizations. @ ground of opposition that Gen. Bond and Mr. Bannon, as politicians, were not entitled to membership, and that Barrell was in ® state of intoxication when he organized the suballiance. The matter came up before the county alliance twice and th legality of the suballiance was sustained. The first time President Mitchell was requested to issue a eharter to the suballiance, which he refused to do, and the scond time it was allowed to partic- ipste in the election of delegates to the state convention. The matter was thoroughly gone over yesterday, the deliberations being behind closed doors." The legality of the Odenton sub- alliance was denied and the Anne Arundel dele- tes ruled out. TRE AFTERNOON SESSION. At the afternoon session Enoch Noyes of Cecil county offered a resolution indorsing Frank Brown for governor. The resolution was opposed, chiefly by the delegates from Dor- chester and Caroline counties, on the ground that Mr. Brown had never defined his position in regard to alliance doctrine nor placed him- self in aceord with its principles, and that, thereiore, such action would be ‘ill advised. Alter @ great deal of debate the matter was given to the committee on resolutions and al- lowed to go over until today. President Mitchell read his annual report, in which he said that the greatest need of the order in Marygand was a well-organized and a well-directed Yecture system, one which will keep in the field at fixed salaries for the en- tire year men of eminent ability and fitness for the work. He suggested the propriety of calling upon the suballiances throughout the state to pay a small sum quar- terly for each male member in Food standing and that the money contributed in that way be used under the direction of the executive com- mittee for educational purposes only. As the result of the work of Lecturer Brad- ley several new alliances had been formed, but the allifnce could not hope of control the gratuitous services of efficient men. In regard to the alliance exchange, which the conven- tion determined last year to put into operation in Baltimore as soon as $0,000 to the capital stock had been paid in, some of the subalii- ances had taken prompt and fayerable action, but notwithstanding the efforts of the presi- dent and secretary, only one-half of them had responded @nd not more than $3,300 had been subscribed. Aralliance exchange in Baltimore, he believed, promised to meet with success at the beginning, because it would not be de- pendent alone upon the state alliance for sup- Port, but would be pai jed by the alliances of Pennsylvania, Virginia, West Virgi North and South Carolina, Georgia and Florida, which now transacted their business through commis- sion men in Baltimore. A COMPLAINT OF UNFAIR TREATMENT. He suggests the appointment of a commit- tee of one from each county to visit the sub- alliances in their respective counties and urge upon them to subscribe to the exchange so that it may be put into operation at an early day. In conclusion he said: “In every caso where the old political parties have been asked by the legislative committee of the alliance to recognize the alliance on the tickets, as far as Lam informed, the request has been treated with marked ‘indifference and contempt by the political bosses and party manipulators. Shall we submit to such treatment? This is a grave question— one upon which the future usefulness, and, it may be, the very life of the organization, depends, and it should receive at our hands careful and earnest consideration. We eannot, dare not longer ignore the fact that bitter and les by the leaders of both parties in the country; that a monopolistic press, regardless of the means employed, is seeking to rivet more firmly tie'chains of the money power upon @ pie almost helpless. Enemies in disguise Exc soeght and gataed edminion to our Game cils and are using every means at their com- mand to bring dissension im our ranks and di- vert usfrom the grand purposes for which we are organized. No honest man will hesitate to sever his connections with an organization such as ours when he cannot xpprove its principles and no dishonest face should be allowed in our councils. ist it be thoroughly understood that the alliance is not to be used to advance or defeat any political party, and that the first and only thing to be covsidered is the advancement of alliance principles. ‘These and ali other ques- tions affecting the success of the order are omitted with the firm conviction that your tion will be eminently wine and result in the growth and usefulness of the organization in the state and country.” ‘The report of the secretary showed twelve county alliances up to August 1, 1801, against seven up to the same time a yenr ago—an ine crease of five—and 134 subsiliatices, against 67 for the same time--anincreaseof7l. ‘The twelve organized counties are Anne arundel, Charles, Caroline, Dorehester, Kent, Prince George's St. Mary's, Somerset, ‘“albot, Worcester an Vicomico, with suballicuces in Baltimore, Calvert, Cecil, Howard, Queen Anne's end Washington counties.

Consternation reigned in the hearts of 250 Guests of the Norwood Inn at Avon-by-the-Sea yesterday. he servants of the hotel deserted their posts in a body immediately after break- fast. The house was crowded from top to bottom. Three or four cottages on the adja cent streets were rented and the lodgers came tothe inn for their menls. All the hotels in town were comfortably full, and upon the dis- appearance of the help the guosts knew not where to go. Finally some young men volunteered to act as waiters and assist the professional cook. A menu card was prepared which was a model of good penmanship and frankness. After the word coffee came the significant “N. B., we haven't mach milk.” “We're short on bread” and “Go slow on the butter” were other notes of interest to the diners. As the men had served the dinner the lady guests agreed to furnish the supper.

To Ran a Steamboat Line Through the Mussel Shoal Canals. A most remarkable mass meeting of citizens of Chattanooga was held there yesterday after- noon at the operahouse, The meeting was called for the purpose of giving public indorsement to @ movement now on foot in that city to establish a steamboat line on the Tennesseo river to ply between Chattanooga and St. Louis. The recent completion of the government work at Mussel Shoal canals, costing nearly 25,000,000, made such a route practical and feasible. The movement on foot in that city is to raise $100,000 to buy, equip and runa boat independent of any railroad alliances. Nearly every business house in the city was closed by a previous arrangement during the rogress of the meeting, which Insted over two jours. A score or more of speeches were made by leading merchants and manufactur- ers showing great discrimination in the matter of railroad freight rates and demonstrating how a boat line would adjust rates. Great en- thusinsm prevailed, and w long series of reso- lutions wero adopted arraigning the railroads and pledging financial aid and support to the steamboat line. ‘The fund will doubtless be raised today.

When the Jacket and green ape of Marous Daly, the Montana millionaire, flashed past the post in the van yesterday after- noon at Morris Park, borne by Sir Matthew, a son of Sir Madrid and Embroidery, the talent heaved a deep sigh. Almost toa man they had backed Merry Monarch to win the Junior Champion stakes, but the favorite was beaten « furlong from home and the €27,000 passed into the possession of the Montana turfman, who has won threo df the most valuable stakes of the year—the great Eclipse, Lorillard and Jun- ior Champion, with Tammany, Montana and Sir Matthew. ‘The weather was insufferably hot, scarcely @ breath of air and the 10,000 persons Prmrgd for rain. A few drops fell at 2 o'clock, ut the sun shone with renewed fervor and made life scarcely worth living during the rest of the day. The track was in superb condition, although the time in the different events was not as fast as on previous dave. ‘The Junior Champion stakes came second on the program, and before the race the main topic discussed by the talent was how far Merry Monarch would beat his field. John Daly, who is « close personal friend of David Gideon, who owns the son of Hindoo, bet Orlando Jones, the bookmaker, $2,000, at 8 to 5, on the Mon- arch before the first ‘race, and when the odds were posted, 7 to 5 being the ruling quotation, the way the money ponred into the ring was amazing. Dagonet and Yorkville Belle were equal second choices at 7 to 1. The Daly confederacy started Sir Matthew, Tammany i234 Silver Fox, and as much a2 10 46 coul against the trio grouped, Georgia aud Qsric were 10 to leach, while it was 12 to 1 Bashford, 15 to 1 Airplant, 25 to 1 Patri- mony colt, 80 to 1 Fremont, 50 to 1 Corrigan's pair. Lew Weirand Phil Dwyer coupled and 200 to 1 each against Lord Motley and Lavish, Mr. Caldwell Lad been under the weather aud was far from well and he begged the boys to aap Se get them away with-as little delay as possible. Scarcely had the contestants formed in line before the red flag fluttered through the sultry air and they were off, with Dagonet, Merry Monarch, Sir Matthew and Yorkville Belle in the first fight. Georgia went through the field like a whirlwind, and Littlefield, clinging to the outer rail, showed in front with Himyi Daughter at the end of the first furlong, Dag- onet, Sir Matthew, Yorkville Belle, Bachford and Merry Monerch leading the rack. The field was spread clear across the track, Gieorgia on one side and Dagonet on the other, and the race Was very pretty one to look at. Rising at tho slight hill, three furlongs from the start, Georgia and Dagonet wero on almost even terms, with Yorkville Belle, Bashford, Sir Matthew andthe Patrimony colt running prom- inently, while Merry Monarch was swallowed up in the dust clouds which hovered in the wake of the leaders, In tho dip between a furlong and a quarter of a mile from the finishing point the struggle had narrowed down to « four-cornered fight between Matthew, Dagonet, Yorkville Belle and Bashford. Georgia's Dickey legs had failed her, Merry Monarch’s speed was goneand the others were simply beaten. In yaiu Bergeon roused Merry Monarch with whip and spur, the fayur- ite could not respond and all eyes were riveted on the four leaders. Fifty yards from the wire Dagonet had Sir Matthew at his neck, with Bashford and York- lo Belle only haifa lengthaway. Doggett as doing his utmost to squeeze the black coithome in front, but Barnes, lifting Sir Matthew at every stride, bore him down relentlessly, and in the last stride got Sir Matthews’ head in front, winning the $27,000 prize by that_nar- Tow margin. “At Dogonet's neck came Bash- ford, while Yorkville Bolle's dainty head was atthe western colt's shoulder. Merry Monarch was in the ruck. ‘There was. nothing particu- larly deserving of mention in tne other events. dacenlilnamoy. aaa KILLED IN THE RACE, One Gloucester Jockey Mortally Injured and Another Badly Hurt. Yesterday was an eventful day at the Glou- cester, N. J., track. It will long be remem- bered as the first fatal accident that occurred at that place. The sixth race, with fourteen horses in it, was nearly half an hour in start- ing owing to Governor Roberts sulking at the post. When the race was finally started Governor Roberts had the lead. ‘The turn of the back- stretch, generally called the ‘‘stable turn,” is very short, and all the hcrses were being crowded by the jockeys in a bunch to get by this turn without losing ground. Two horses in the thickest of the bunch were seen to come together in a crash, and were obscured from view for a few seconds by a thick cloud of dust that had risen. When the cloud had subsided the horses, Alfred B. and Davis, were down, and Eddie Carr and George Bushnell, the jockeys who rode them, were lying prostrate alongside of their fallen steeds. Acrowd ran to the scene of the accident. Carr was found to have his right collar bone broken, besides being otherwise badly injured. Bushnell was insensible. Carr was hastily re- moved to « hotel. where medical assistance was rendered him and everything done for his com- fort. Meanwhile Bushnell was carried to a shady tree and Dr. Tomlinson was summoned in at- tendance. A careful examination was made. No bones were found to have been broken. Stimulants were administered and Bushnell rallied for a time. He was removed to his ing house, near the toll gate, and Dr. ‘Tomlinson left him resting easier. At 8:20 p-m. the doctor was hastily summoned, and on ar- rival found the unfortunate jockey beyond all human aid. He died a few minutes later. George Bushnell was an Englishman, about twenty-eight years old. He lived in Downing- town, Pa., where he leaves a widow. . or FIT FOR A MUSEUM. A Man Whose Hair and Beard Trail the Ground. . Near Point Burwell, Ont., lives an eccentric character by thename of John Harper, though he is best known by the nickname of “Long Hair Johnnie,” which he has gained by the extra- ordinary length of his hair and beard. These, he claims, he bas never allowod scissors or razor to approach for over thirty years, in fulfillment of = vow, though asto what this vow was he is persistently silent. His hair trails several feet on the ground when loosened from the plaits in which he braids and wears it about his head, and his beard touches earth when he stands erect. Both are kept in beauti- fulordor and area great matter of pride to him. Harpor is an Englishman by birth and a man of superior intelligence and some educe- ives alone in a small one-room house and has not beon known to leave it for nearly twenty years.
