WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 19, 1891. ; CAMP BY THE SEA. ‘The Washington Light Infantry on Duty st Ocean MILITARY DUTIES OCCUPY THEIR FIRST ATTEN- ‘TION, ALTHOUGH THE ROYS HAVE AN OFFOR- TUNITY FOR 4 GOOD DEAL OF AMUSEMENT— & QUIRT VISIT FROM GEX. ORDWAY. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. ‘Can Moone, August 19, 1891. Quietness reigns supreme the seaside and the Light quietly on their laurels and arranging plans for new conquests and new successes. Yesterday the bathing commenced and today it has been continued with great vigor. The beach is first- class and an important event of the day is the bath. ‘There is then considerable fishing going on. Col. Blackford yesterday in » few hours’ fishing caught eighty-two big trout, and, what is looked upon as still more mar- velous, brought them in with bim, #0 that those who looked must believe. Other catches of larger sized proportions have been recorded and other men are maturing the size Of the fists they intend to catch or, at any rate, to tell abouteatching. The unexpectedly large crowd which is staying down with the soldier boys complicated for a time the arrangements at the hotel, bat today things are moving much more smoothly and still further im- provements will doubtless occur. THE REGULAR MILITARY PROGRAM. The regular military program includes guard mount at 9 o'clock and dress parade at Govclock. The dress parade yesterday and the two guard mounts which have already oc- curred show that the Infantry have not lost the skill in drill which has always been one of their characteristics. During the weck the aquad,company and battalion drills will be continuous, and, according to Gen. Ordway's order, four hours must be devoted by each company to the new extended order drill. The Infantry have already devoted considerable time in the armory to these new tactics and will doubtless fall into the changes with readi- Bess. ‘THE EXCURSION COMMITTEE. Today Capt. Loettier of Company D is dressed up his prettiest and wears the sword aud the dignity befitting the officer of the day. Capt. Loeitier, besides commanding one of the com- panies, has a good deal on his hands as chair- Map of the committee on excursions, which, of course, subject to Maj. Dalton’s orders, make up the program of amusements. This committee is working its brain power to the extreme point in their efforts to think up pleasures. Dr. Leach, another member of the committee, is | pre fat under the exercise of thinking, while Capt. Loeffer's friends are growing anxious at the efforts which he is seen to be using. CAPT. CHAS. C. M. LOEFFLER. Capt. Chas. C. M. Loeftler is one of the most Popular men in the Light Infantry and where- ever his ample dimensions appear there is a stirring up and some fan. He was born in Washing- ton, D. C., December 31, 1857, and educated in Emer- son’ Institute and Spen- cerian College and at the King’s School in Stuttgart, Germany. Capt. Loefler energetic business n when he is not a good- Jooking and efficient soldier. For four years ho was in the signal service and for eight years correspond- ing clerk in the office of CAPT.

Capt. Loeffler is ‘8 past commander of De Molay Mounted Com- qaandery, No. 4, Knights Templaz. MonNIXG GUARD MOUNT. ‘The morning’s guard mount is # prominent feature of the day at camp, and is always at- tended by alarge audience of interested spec- tators. The precision which the men show in this drill is remarkable, and deserves and re- ceives bigh commendation. ‘THE CAMP AND THE HOTEL. ‘The camp at Ocean Viewis pitched on the left of the hotel, on a level plot, and close at hand is another field used for drills and dress pa- rade. Close by the hotel is a large pavilion, with shooting gallerics, whirligigs and other yares dear to the excursionist'’s heart. The Otel faces directly on the beach and has a splendid outiook. The builiing bas a broad porch. which is usually crowded by uniforms and spring dresses. Here the Third Artillery Band gives two concerts daily, and good music it is, too. ‘Srws FROM we. ‘The srrival of Tue Stax this morning was welcome as the flowers of May and the home news was eagerly devoured by the travelers. The visit of Gen. Ordway to the camp, short a» it was, was greatiy appreciated by the com- mands snd the visit which the general willmake Inter in the week is looked forward to with leasire. The general made his visit yesterday civilian attire and on his trip to the camp re- fused to have the guard turn out.

LUXURIOUS TENTS. ‘The tents are beginning to take on a lux- urious appearance, the men vieing with each other in the attract features which they ean arrange. On many the names of the men are worked up with some sort of desi The tent oceupied by Dr. Leach, Dr. Luce and Hos- pital Steward Kenner isa symphony in com- ort and beauty. Capts.

The command and friends on Thursday will tuke one of the Norfolk and Washington steam- ers and make trip to Fortress Monroe and neighborhood. Tomorrow many of the men will be the guests of the neighboring club houses, while later on an oyster roast is to be given in the neighborhood. PRACRES AND CREAM. The big open pavilion, with its outlooks on the camp and the bay, is a popular place, and parties can be found there at all hours discuss ing matters military and light refreshments. One party which is having a thoroughly good time down here consists of Capt. and Mrs. Miller, Capt. and Mra. Childs, Mra. Dennis and M O'Laughlin. Wherever this ontfit is located it is a certain thing that a good time is in progress. Everybody is well here, and the hospital tent isd iring of ever obtaining a patient. What with drills, boating, bathing and loafing the soldiers bid fair to enjoy them- selves. .. This evening, with the Artillery Band playing its pretticat, hop will be indulged in at the Otel t. C.

PRESIDENT HARVEY W. GARFIELD. BUSINESS OARSMEN, The Convention of the National Association of Amateurs Last Night. Although scheduled for assombling at 8 o'clock the convention of the National Associ- ation of Amateur Oarsmen did not get into shape until 9:30. Every ono was tired and hungry after the races, and the preliminary business occupied a good deal of time. At the hour named President Harry Garfield called the convention to order and asked that achair- man be named. Mr. W. A. McKenney of the Analostans nominated Mr. Henry Wise Garnett of this city, who was elected as chairman by acclamation. The roll call showed an attendance of forty- five clubs, represented as follows: Analostan B. . by W. A. McKenney; Ariel R. C., Baltimor by C. W. Henisler; Atalanta B.C: by proxy; Arlington B.

President Harry Garfleld then read the annual report of the executive committee, as it is termed, or, rather, the report of the presi- dent himself, for it amounts to the same thing. He related the work done by the committee during the past year and gave a detailed stat ment of the receipts and expenditures, sho’ ing aneat balance on hand. He called atten tion to the discussion that has arisen over the question of changing the length of the national races and their style, discoursing upon the rious advantages of ‘the straightaway and the turning races. He inclined to the belief that the latter was the more popular form on inany accounts. He hoped that there would be no rash steps taken in the way of lengthening or shortening the course or altering the style of the races without full and deliberate consider- ation. He went into the matter of the position of the association upon te amateur question, and indicated that in his opinion the whole business can be kept within bounds by the proper application of the present rules by # Conscientious committee. The close of the read- ing brought forth the applause of the delegates, aud the report was accepted. The secretary announced that the terms of the following niembers of the executive com- mittee had expired and that it was therefore necessary to elect new members for three years gach: C.'G. Peterson, Fred Standish aud Harry McMillan. On motion of Commodore Mullin & committee of three was sent ont to make nominations and it soon reported the names of Messrs. G. D. Phillips of the New York Athletic Club to succeed Peterson, John F. Huneker, d . to succeed MeMillan, and Standislt to succeed himself. The convention voted to accept these names und the nominees were elected. ‘The secretary then read a circular which was sent out by Judge Tighe of Brooklyn in July, proposing an amendment to the constitution to the effect of enlurging the executive com- mittee to twelve members frow nine. He also read another amendment proposed by himself, which was to the same effect, but providing for the change in a different way. The latter was accepted by Judge Tighe and the amended amendment was adopted by a vote of 31 to 12, the Philadelphia clubs voting against it with one exception, the Vespers. According to this amendment the three additional members were to be elected at once and to draw lots for the different terms of one, two and three years. THE NEW MEMBERS. Under the terms of this enactment the con- vention proceeded to elect the men, the nom- inations being made in the meeting. There were but three names presented and they were consequently ali chosen, as follows: Theo. Van Kaden of the Atalanta B. C., drawing the one- year term; R. H. Pelton, Seawanahaka B. C., three years, and A. R. Sweet, Pawtucket B. C., two years. COLLEGE CREWS IN THE REGATTA. A resolution was introduced by Dr. Root of the Malta Club of Philadelphia to the effect that in the future college crewsshall be barred from the national regutta, except in races especially rovided for them. This was discussed at some ngth, but merely as to the best manner of ob- taining this end. It was finally agreed upon as an amendment to the regulations of the execu- tive committee. Mr. Stimpson of the Arlington Club, Masen- joe- | chusetts, moved to amend by adding to the list of events a race for junior cighta. In the dis- cussion which ensued President Garfield sug- gested that the matter might Le left to the ex- ecutive committee to be adopted if practicable. ‘This idea went through. ‘he main objection YESTERDAY'S KACES. The National Amateur Kegatta on the Po- tomae. SOME GOOD CONTESTS AND SOME UXINTERESTING ONES—HEATS IN TRE JUNIOR AND SENIOR SINGLES—FINE CONTESTS IN DOUBLE SCULLS— COLUMBIA FOUR DEFEATED BY THE FAIRMOUNTS. Yesterday's boat racing on the Potomac was of an odd variety. There were good races and poor races, close and wide, fast and slow. It was a day for favorites and for dark horses as well, and the results bring the regatta to the second day in euch a shape that no one wishes to pick winners with any degree of confidence. There could not have been a better day for the events, for the water was smooth as glass and the skies were suficiently clouded to screen the oarsmen and spectators from the glare of the sun during the long and rather tedious waits between races. A thunder shower arose in the middle of the program anda slight wetting was given to those who had no umbrellas, but no one minded the rain, for it was over soon and left the air clearer. ‘The first race was somewhat delnyed by the disinclination, as usual, on the part of the local steamboat inspectors ‘to letting the boat” Templar gooutfrom Georgetown rier of passengers. ‘Things were finally ar- ranged with them, however, and the tug steamed over to the vicinity of the Analostan house and composed of young men whose sole idea of the “press” was that which took place around tho extemporaneous buffet that had been provided in the stern. : TRE QUARTER-MILE DASH. Tt was the general opinion that the quarter- mile dash was not asuccess. There was too much uncertainty about the course and too little room for the men. There were six start- ers: Hedley of Philadelphia, Freoth of Brook- lyn, Atherton of New York, Carney of Newark, Caftrey of Lawrence, Mase., and Bergin of Cambridge. Hedley, who was thought to be a sure winner, had the Virginia shore and Bergin had the otherside. Hediey stecred straight for the mud at the word und’ thus lost so much ground that he was out of the race from the start. Bergin took the lead and held it. He was crowded a little by Cafirey, who was pushed to one side in turn by Carney. Carney enme near fouling and was out of the race by trying to get back into his water. Atherton and Froeth had hard work to keep their places in the race at all. Bergin’s iend at the finish was fully a length anda half and his time for the quarter was 1 minute and 29 seconds. Caifrey Kept on well and crossed the line second in 1.311%. The others finished in this order: Carney, Atherton, Froeth and Hedley. Some thought that Hedley saved himself for the heat in the senior singles iater in the day. FIRST HEAT FOR JUNIOR SIXOLES. The second race was the first heat in the Junior singles, and thongh four men were on- titled to start, but two of them did so, both from the Crescent Boat Club of Boston—Vlem- ing and Dyex. Austin of the Now Yorks broke his oar lock at the start and could not go off. Fleming had a walk-over, winning by several lengths in 10.22-5. He rowed casily and was not pushed at any time in the heat. Both men 0 into the finals in the race this afternoon. A PRETTY CONTEST. The second heat was one of the prettiest races of theday. Wright of the Argonauts of Toronto, Panton of the Atalantas, Berry of Passaic and Haggerty of Long Island City were the starters. It wasan instance of au oarsman’s regaining gronnd lost at the word, aud Wright was the one to doit. He rowed'as plucky a Tace as was ever seen here. Panton went ahoad at the start and his lead at the first eighth was fully a length, but Wright kept at his stern and soon forced ‘him back into his own course. Kerry in the meantime was steering well and kecping well up with the leaders. Haggerty pulled ‘badly and in a wild fashion that cost him the place. He went far out of the course toward the flats and was soon out of reach. The lead kept alternating be- tween Wright and Panton for a half, and then erry had come up into tho bunch and Panton, tinding the pace too hot for him, dropped’ back and was satisfied with third place. Wright and Berry were brushing for the honors. ‘the forger took to steering at the lust quarter in a way that threatened his safety, but be recovered soon and found Pan- ton, who had changed his inind and was spurt- ing, m his water again. Panton was forced out and this cost him the pluce beyond hope. Berry was at the end of his speed and Wright, having found his line again and pulling in maguificent form, gradually pulled ahead of him and won by three lengths in 10.08%. Berry's time was 10.14%. Wright and berry will meet Fleming and Dyer this atternoon. FOR DOUBLE SOULLS. The rain was falling when the word was given the threo crews in the first heat for double sculls, but it did not interfere with the event in the least. The starters were Megowen and Van Vlict of the Vespers of P! M cahy and Monahan of the Alb and Nagle of the Manhattan and exciting race for blood from the start to the finish. The Manhattans led at the tirst jump, Vespers second and Albany slightly in the rear. When the second quarter was reached Albany pulled up and led with the others to- gether. ‘this lead they kept to the finish, | inaintaining a beautiful form audan even stroke that could not be touched by either of the other crews. The Manhattans gave up the fight at the mile, though still pulling hard, and the Vespers went on and finished second. ‘the All crossed the line two lengths in the lead. ‘Time, 8.49 3-5. Second timenot taken, ‘A SIAGNIFICENT HEAT. If the first heat was pretty, the second was magnificent. Adjectives fail to give an ado- quate idea of the perfection of this event as a matter of intense interest. It was rowed by four crews, three of whom were go close to- gether up to 200 yards of the finish line that no one could tell which was ahead. ‘The start- ers were Quill and Belycr of the Varunas, Cameron brothers of the Baysides of Toronto, Donohue brothers, champion skaters, of the Manbattans and Case and Henderson of the Catlins of Chicago. The Varunas spurted at the word and took a lead of half alength. The skating brothers steered badly and went wild, heading for the flats in such a way that they wore never in the race. At the first eighth the Varunas went over into the water of the Cat- ith a lead of half a length, and the Ba; were ona line with the’ second boat. Varuna was rowing a quick stroke, the others pulling long and steady. By’ the time the second quarter was reached the Catlins had crept up to a lead of a nose, but it was any- body's race yet, for all three boats were to- ether. At the mile the bunch was unbroken. t this oint the wash from the umpire's tug ‘overtook the lagging but Late d skaters in the rear, and they had to rest on their oars while they went over it. Atthe last quarter all the leaders wore. in such positions that any one to the change was the expense of an cight- ‘oared race to the association in the form of in- dividual medals. ‘THE LENGTH OF COURSE. Secretary Gibson brought up the question of the length of the course by introducing 1 reso- lution to the effect that hereafter all races of the association shall be for one mile. There wasa sharp discussion and Mr. McMillan of Philadelphia argued strongly against the plan on the ground that there was not enough cer- tainty as to what the general rowing public wanted. Then he thought that the races of the national association were designed to bring out the best qualities in the men and he cited wev- eral of the day's races to show that a crew that might last well up in the race fora mile would be outclassed in the mile anda alt. | He sug- gested the introduction of the new system in Oue race asan experiment. The matter was laid on the table. ‘After a vote of thanks had been passed to the executive committee, on motion of Judge ‘Tighe, the convention at 10:30 adjourned. ‘The Golden Cross. At the regular meeting of Mount Vernon Commandery, No. 440, U.0.G. C., last evening, Noble Commander J. H. A. Fowler presiding, Deputy Grand Commander W. H. Popo, assisted by Past Grand Commander Dr. 8. I. Groot and could, by a spurt, win the race, but they seemed to be waiting for one or the other to weaken. The Varunas increased their stroko slightly and went ahead about half a length at the last eighth, cutting into the water of the Catlins, so that there was danger of afoul. At took on ite load, the greater part of which was | ¢ New York and Smithson of Ws @oto- Smithson steered himeelf out of the race st the start and was hopelessly beaten in a uarter of a mile. Carney led the bunch, with yy on his heels and Atherton not far off. Allwere within a length and outside of the course to the west. At the half the be- came tedious to Caffrey and Carney and they spurted, leaving Atherton in the rear to keep company with Smithson. Caffrey led by quarter of a length, feining this by the work of a few strokes. "At three-quarters Caffre’ had widened his open water toa clear length and he was gaining. His form was perfection and his wind seemed good. He apparently bad the race in hand at this poiat. Carney and Atherton were taking things easy, but Smith- fon, seeing achance to get out of last bole, spurted and sawed wood for all he was worth. Caffrey finally crossed the line ton ier ahead, with Carney well uhead of Atherton and ‘mithson, who @ neat sprint on the last eighth, Atherton giving Smithson the last honors by a serateh. Time, winner, 9.51; second, 10.1334, THE THIRD HEAT was between Bergin, Hedley and Freeth. Hed- Jey, smarting from his bad work in the dash, spurted at the word and rowed easily to the front. Freeth kept him company for a few strokes, but the gap widened and Bergin, who Was rowing a slow stroke, apparently, didnot care to rush things. At the first flag the same order was maintained, and at the half mile Hedley had a lead of two lengths, with Freeth second. Bergin was out of his course beyond ley and Freoth had exchanged Freeth was Inboring with a short, troke that soon tired him, and Bergin, secing his opportunity, spurted up at the las quarter and raced with Freeth for the pl t the last eighth he passed his opponent Freeth began spurting, but it was too late. Hedley's time was 10.08 1-8 and Dergin's 10.15. THE LOCAL CREW DEFEATED. ‘Then came the second complete race of the day, in which there was an intense local inter- est. It was the event for senior fours, and tho eight entries had dwindled down to two, the Columbias of Washington and the Fairmounts of Philadelohia, Columbia's crew was composed of Baker, Ryan, Johnson and Dyer and the other of Brownell, Hoover, Olen and Snowden. It was 8 procession from the start, Fairmount Jeading by a little at first, but gradually by more until the line was reached, when the boats were al- most stem and stern er in favor of the Vhiladelphia men. The Columbia crew didnot row smootily at the start, but splashed con- siderably. The Fairmounts were rowing weil together and with a long sweep that told better than the short, jerky movements of the local oarsmen. The Fairmounts steered the poorer course, making a wake like an “8” during the first half. In the last half both crews steered badly and it was difficult at times to tell which had the right water. The winning lead was of alength and this was taken by the time the first quarter was reached. Columbia then made 1 good spurt and held on like grim death, but Fairmount, rowing easily, managed to keep ahead at every jump the Columbias made and did not allow the other boat to get any closer. ‘The winners crossed the line in 8.54 2-5, the slowest time that has been made in a national regutta by senior fours since 1876. SOME AMUSING INCIDENTS. ‘The most amusing thing that the spectators at the Analostan boat house had to enjoy yes- terday was that of seeing the small boys swim from the shore to the rocks, fifty yards distant. When they reached the rocks they sat down to dry out in the sun. ‘This drying process con- tinued only a short time till the tugs came along and succeeded in disturbing the water to such an extent as to dash it upon the rocks and soak the youngsters again, who thereupon struck out for shore. CAME NEAR DROWNISO. One colored boy about thirteen years old started out to make the rocks, but found his clothing was too heavy,and when about half way he gave out and commenced to yell and spout for life. Most of the people in the Boats near by evidently supposed he was bar- ing fun, bat one of the parties realized the danger of the boy's predicament in time to suc- eed in hauling bim into their boat and then put him ashore. {thas been suggested that the clubs which are entertaining the visiting oarsmen should organize committees to show the visitors the sights of Washington. It is certain that nothing would be appreei- ated more by them, for in that way they would be enabled to see the principal points in much Jess time than in hunting such places for them- selves. _ There is some complaint, notably among the New Jersey and Long Island people, of lack of enthusianta in boat racing in Washington, They think there is not the life in it in ‘ashington which exists in their own commhtnities. THE LARGEST AND WEALTHTEST. ‘The New York Athletic Club, which has sev- eral crews here entered in the different races, is the largest and wealthiest athletic associa tion in the United States. The organization numbers 2,600 members and it has property valued at #600,000. Of this amount {00,00 is invested in a large building admirably fitted in the heart of New York and 200,000 is in a tract of a acres on the shore of Long Island sound. ‘The regatta of 1893, the fair year, will be. held in Chicago if the work of dredging, which is now contemplated, is executed. The rules of the N. A. A. U. requirea mile and a half course, straightaway, and unless this dredging is done the course at Lincoln Park, Chicago, will not be of sufficient length. It is probable, however, that the work will be done because the Pullman company is anxious to get the clay to be obtained from this dredg- ing. Bosides making a good race course ‘this inland sheet of water will add wonderfully to the beauty of Ibineoln Park, KEEPING OUT XEW CLUBS. There has been a good deal of talk for the last two years among the activemen in the National Association about the action of the executive committee in keeping out new clubs. It seems that the executive committee has been for years composed of the samo men and they have been averse toadmitting new clubs. It was decided by the more progressive young men in the associa- tion that they would increase tho exccutive com. r i WAN’ “MISCELLANEOU icmiinghety apiece eg] ___WANTED—HELP.___| WANTED _NISCELLANFOUS. — —— peti pee eng a3 = 2 noe WAS a 0 and when be found that the schooner could noi | IG "Ahi gREuNTEM AT dt fttout of the way he bore down on her and | women!!!

This remarkable contract was signed by William B. Webb, Samuel M. Wheat- ley and William Ludlow, Commissioners, and by Felix M. Draney, contractor, with Philip | Christman and Charies W.’ Huguely, as retios in the sum of $15,000, for the faithful execution of the work. Why talk about “the inadequate appropriations? They have been all that the contract requires, and even more. | Mr. Draney has not only received regularly his €15,000 that he agreed to do the work for, but even more than that sum.

With thiy five mittee from nine to twelve members. Itrequired a vote of two-thirds of the clubs to do that.and that vote was secured last night. The three new men put on the committee were Capt. Theodore Van Roden of the Atalanta Club of ew York, Kk. H. Pelton of the Seawanhaka Boat Club, Brooklyn, and A. M. Sweet of the Pawtucket Boat Olub, Pawtucket, R. I. By the accession of these new members in addition to the old members of the executive committee the progressive element will now be able to control matters, There are at present only sixty-eight clubs in the association and, as there are four hundred boat clubs in America, it is thought likely ‘that the association will {occease very materially within the next year. Many clubs that have been unable to gain admittance from the old executive committee will now without trouble obtain entrance to the National Asso- ciation. SOME COMPLAINTS. The principal cause of complaint about the races of yesterday is the bad start made in the this juncture the Baysides found that they had had enough of the race and rested, while the Varunas, keoping the lead recently’ obtained, held it to the line, winning ina length anda half. ‘Time, 9.07 and 9.128¢. SENIOR SINGLES. ‘Then came the first heat for senior singles. ‘The entries included fiv» men, and all started. They were Sharkey of Long Island City, Hig- gins of Worcester, Snyder of the Columbia Club of Allegheny, Burritt of Toronto and Aman of Buffalo. Higgins led from the word and though brushed smartly by Sharkey won easily. Both Burritt aud Amanstarted iu poor shape, but the former, recovering, pulled a lucky race that excited the admiration of all. Viiggine went into the water of Snyder soon after the start, but he recovered ina few strokes and went back. Sharkey took advantuge of this move to take a slight lead with Aman, who bad found his form again, with him on the line. But it was only for‘a few strokes, for Higgins was not to be led. Snyder and Bur- ritt, at the first quarter, were together two longths behind, but spurting: 8o far the racers were nicely bunched, and Higgins, though « quarter-mile dash. Bergin, who won the race, had a full length start of all the others, and so much start as that in so short a distance gives an advantage which it is almost impossible to overcome. One reason of complaint that is heard about the boat races of yes! is that there was no way to distinguish the different crews. aps of bright colore bad been but they were ‘not on band when wanted yes- terday. Had they been worn they would have been an aid only to the oarsmen who had been informed beforehand of what the different crews would wear, for no mention was made in the program of colors to be worn, That is not the only point of dimatisfuction about, the program elther. ‘Another complaint is that only the names of the men entered in each race are given and no mention is made of the clubs to which they be- rork at Takousa x.

Itwasin the most densely populated part of Washington. on a square built up with nice houses, without a vacant lot. ‘The stench those Uncovcred barrels ‘gave forth polluted, the whole square. It is bad enough to be obliged to endure this hot weather the foul odors from garbage that accumulates on one’s own remises, without having to endure the retail- ing about the streets of noxions odors that come from other people's garbage.
