G. of D. C., goes intoecamp today at Collingwood Beach, Va., for one week's tour of duty. This bet- talion was organized in April last by a consoli- dation of the two companies of the former seventh and eighth battalions of the D. C.N.G., Maj. F.C. Revells of the old eighth battalion being selected by Gen. Ordway to command the consolidated organization. It is officered aa follows: Maj. F.C. Revells, commanding; first lieutenant and adjutant, Hamilton 8. Smith; first lieutenant and quartermaster, vacancy; surgeon, Thos. L. Upshaw; first liew- tenant and inspector rifle practice, Albert K. Brodie; sergeant major, Leon Turner; quarter- master’ sergeant, Chas. R. Beckley; hospital steward, Francis L. Cardoza. Company A— Captain, Arthur Brooks; first lieutenant, Judd Malvin; second lieutenant, Fielding L. Dodson. Company B—Captain, Jas. A. Perry; first liew- tenant, Peter B. Meredith; second lieutenant, vacancy. Company C—Captain, Wilford Mar- shall; first licutenant, Primus H. Simmaes; sec- ond lieutenant, Frederick T. Webster. Com- pany tain, John H. Campbell; frst lien- tenant, Chas. H. Hill; second lieutenant, Geo. W. Edwards. Sergeant (candidate) Edward L. Webster has been detailed as commissary of the camp and in the abseuce of a quartermaster Quartermaster Sergeant Chas. R. Beckley is at the head of the quartermaster's department. ‘The Capital City Band will furnish music for the camp. ‘The membership of the several companies in enlisted men is as follows: Company A, 45; company B, 34; company C, 55; company D, 70. OF ‘these companies A and © represent the shington t Corps, originally organiz Tune 12, 1680,and companies Band D represent the Capital City Guard, organized originally December 8, 1880. These two organizations Went into the National Guard at its orgauiza- tion in May, 1887, ench as a full battalion of four companies and with a full complement of officers. In May, 1890, to meet the exigencies of the act of Congress, they were reduced to two companies each, but allowed to retain their separate organizations until April, 1891, when, in consequence of a reduced appropriation, the ‘two were consolidated to form the present first separate battalion, the resignation of Maj. C. A. Fleetwood of the former seventh battalion being accepted, supernumerary staff officers mustered out and Maj. Frederick U. Revells commissioned in charge. The organization is therefore composed of veterans in the militia service, aud with the experience gained in the two camps at Fort Washington it is safe to say that their venture at independent camping will Prove a success, ‘THE CAMP GROUND. The camp ground that has been selected is 8 beautifal spot adjoming the pleasure ground at Collingwood Beach, Va., with » gradual rise from the river bank back toa thickly wooded hill. ‘The drainage is perfect and the surface so compactly composed of gravel, sand and turf that mud is impossible, however hard a rain may fall, the ground draining as soon as the rain ceases. Passing over the crest of the ill a wide, level cleared plain is spread out, with just enough of bush, hollow and trees to give a splendid opportunity for the extended order drill that will be made a daily feature. ‘The.daily guard mounts and dress parades yillbe held on the ground of the driving park in the pleasure grounds. Here also will be held the review on Friday next, when the camp will be visited and inspected by Gen. Ordway and staff. Sunday afternoon there will be Divine service by some distinguished clergymen occu- pying Washington pulpits, and on Monday, the Bist, the command will strike camp and return home. Communication with the camp will be held daily by the steamer George Law at 8:30 and 10:30 a.m. and at 2:30 and5p.m. The daily dress parade will be held on the arrival of the boat leaving Washington at 5 o'clock p.m. As there is considerable interest and curiosit} in the National Guard to eee how the camp wi be conducted by this battalion, entirely upon its own resources, it is safe to say that it will be largely visited by the white officers and members of the guard as well as by the more immediate personal friends of its officers and men. IN HEAVY MARCHING ORDER. The command assembled at its armory this morning at 8 o'clock, in what is known in mili- tary parlance as “heavy marching order,” knapsacks packed and the blankets that form a part of a soldie: P equipage rolled on top of the knapsucks. The assembly call sound at 9 o'clock, and soon after the battalion left the armory and marched down to 7th street wharf, where 1t embarked on the Law for the beach: A large crowd of colored people had assembled in the streets around the wharf to see the men depart for their week's outing, and the Loat was cheered as she moved off into the stream. i ‘The first guard at the camp will be furnished by company A, with Capt. Brooks ofticer of the day and Lieut. Dodson officer of the guard. ann eS Meetings of Good Templars. The regular meeting of Holloway Lodge of Good Templars last evening was unusually well attended. A considerable increase in members was reported. The lodge deputy, Miss Lizzie King, installed Mrs. Sarah Newman as treasurer and Miss Ada Coulter as deputy marshal. Among those taking part in “good of the or- der” were Mr. Lee, Messrs. J. and H. Gregg, Miss Hell Long. Dr. Whitney, representative of this jurisdiction to the Rt. W. G. L.; Miss Frost, H. &. W. Young, W. Kratschmar, W. 8. Rowley and others. ‘ Wastington Lodge bad « very interesting meeting k.st evening. Although the night was very dark and stormy, thirty of the members met in Clabaugh Hall. Two new members were initiated and seven applications for mem- bership were received, thus showing that the lodge is numerically’ growing. Fifteen new members were added during ‘the last quarter. This lodge has charge of the meetings at the tent every Wednesday evening, and is also ac- tively interested in the work of the license committee of the Grand Lodge. The good of the order was participated in by Brother Rus- sell of Perseverance Lodge, Brother Zeliers of aitimore, Brother Wilkinson of Fort Alyer, Va., Brother James Thompson and K. F. ney of Washington Lodge. a Veteran Volunteer Firemen. A meeting of the Veteran Volunteer Fire- 's Association was held at the hall (old Union engine house) corner of 19th and H streets, last night. President Richards stated the object of the meeting to be to arrange for the funeral of their friend and brother, John I. P. Carpenter, which will take place tomor- row afternoon at 4 o'clock. After some discus- sion the association arranged to attend in full form, minus the coat, in carriages, and to meet at 3 o'clock on Wednesday. eee eee ‘The Bathing Beach. To the Fattor of The Evening Star: Since the wharves were completed and the springboards put in place there have been from 150 to 300 bathers a day, though the houses, which are done, cannot be opened for use until the Commissioners have digested a code of rules and untila keeper is provided for each block of houses. There are policemen in charge both night and day, aud they have their pa- .e surely tried by boys who are up to all manner of mischief, daugerous to each other and to the premises, but hardly justifying ar- rest. A great many respectable gentlemen want to dress in the houses and when told the place is not yet open nor provided with keepers they inconsiderately rest back on their personality and feel almost insulted that a gen- eral rule is not broken in their favor, and very sharp grumbling is often heard. There are many who would open the houses for them- selves and return the keys all properly, but sharps and thieves are just as well dressed and politeas honest people, and the place would quickly win a bad reputation unless conducted systewatically. Thus far two boys have sunk twice before their cries were distinguished from the general disorderly melee, but they were saved, and this is one of the strongest st ar Excension Tickets To Oceax Crr¥.—The B and O.

One of the principal events in cycling circles will be the reception of the “Pensys” from Philadelphia by the Nomad Club next week and their entertainment during their three days’ stay by tlfe club members. The Nomad Club numbers fifty members ‘and is the only club in the city that has lady members. Among the ladics of the club are several experts on the wheel, and the members boast that some of the ladies are the best female cyclists in the country. The visiting club will bring about thirty ladies and gentlemen in their party and arrive here Friday afternoon of next weel They will be met by the Nomads at the depot anda stag run will be made to Brightwood.

C., now's your chance. Boys (and girls, too, though that ig ome to be reversed, as itis the ‘ladies’ tour’), keep that ‘Washington trip’ well for- ninst your mind” The people down there have come to the conclusion that nothing is too good for us, and they propose presenting us with the entire city and most of its rural en= vironments. Honestly, though, we are going to have a magnificent reception, and we want to take down one of Pensy’s old time out- ourings, so if you haven't put your name jown, do so at once.” Among those expected with the visitors are Capt. Laing, Mr. Weise, Mr. Roberts, Mr. Mc- Owen, Mr. McKinstry and others who have n here, several times and who assisted in making the Hagerstown trip a pleasant one for the Nomads. eae AMUSEMENTS. am AtBavon's.—The last week of the engage- ment of the Carleton opera troupe began at Albangh’s last night with the tuneful opera, “The Chimes of Normandy,” which was pre- sented to » good audience, notwithstanding the unfavorable state of the weather. The cast was an excellent one. Mr. Murray sang the role of the Marquis with easy grace and richness, his voice being fully equal to all the require- ments, and his acting was manly and spirited. His popularity wat fully shown in the emphatic encore he received to his first song as well as in the demand for a repetition of the “Knights of Old,” although this was also a recognition of the good work of the chorus. Miss Clara Lane made a sprightly Serpolette, adding to her repu- tation both as @ singer and an actress by her capable work. Miss Alice Vincent was the Germaine and Miss Marian Langdon the Gertrude, Mr. Bigelow surprised his friends by the excellence of his Gaspard, his great scene in the second act getting hima curtain call which was justly deserved. Mr. Fitzgerald caught the spirit of Grenicheur and Mr. West was an acceptable Bailie. The concerted num- bers were well given und the chorus was effi- cient. Tonight “Nanon” will be given. Hanis’ Bisov.—Tho wet weather did not keep a large audience from attending Harris’ Bijou Theater last night. “Our Malindy, comedy drama, was given by a very good com- Y id its reception was exceedingly hearty. re some very pretty pictures of south- era homestead life and the various roles are taken in a creditable manner. Some of the faults that are almost inevitable in the eurly career of a play are visible, but the general re- sult is satisfactory. Mr. Walter Fletcher takes the part of Appetife Bik and wins the mirthful interest of the audience throughout the play. Miss Louise Perine, as Clover, contributed a number of pretty songs and dances, and the music of the Brilliant Quartet proved highty acceptable. The trained bulldog “Guftie” made an undoubted “hit” when he made bi appearance in the action of the play. Again tonight. Kensax’s Lycevs.—A surprisingly large au- dience saw Lillian Lewis in “Credit Lorraine” at Kernan’s Lyceum Theater last night. The Performance was, in some sense, a test, na it ‘was the first absolute innovation in the style of attraction since the theater was remodeled, both architecturally and as to the character of the entertainments presented. The house was completely filled, and in the audience was visi- bie the tlutter of ribbons and other decorations which denote the feminine presence. ‘The play went smoothly and Miss Lewis acquitted ler self with great credit. She undeniably holds @ high position ag an emotional star, and her work in “Credit Lo: ” fully sustains her claims to recognition. The play, by Lawrence Marston, possesses many points of excellence. It is exciting in itsinterest, some of the climaxes being worked up to the highest pitch of inten- sity. The supporting cast is a good one, the impersonations of Edmund Collier, minister of we, Authur Elliott, Phillippe Rameau, and Toute Pomeroy, Madame Bon-Bon, being es- pecially noteworthy.

An Effort to Adjust the Association and | Carriers Having Hard Work to Save tne PRESIDENT KRAMER SAYS THEY HAVE NOTHING TO CONCEAL—THEY WILT. CONFER UPON A BUSINESS ‘BASIS—A FRANK TALK WITH A STAB REPORTER. feathers somewhat drooped from the damp, hovers today over the warring magnates of the national game. The base ball strife, so bitter and apparently so permanent, is in a fair way to be settled today, and even now the repre- sentatives of the contending organizations are discussing the sitaation and endeavoring to agree upon @ compromise program that will insure the prosperity of the game and the burial of the hatchet. The celebrated ‘peace conference” between the league and the association, which was sprung upon an unsuspecting public afew days ago, has actually materialized and there is every prospect that it will avail to produce or- Ger out of “the chaos that ‘now prevails in the base ball world. The conference began at 2 o'clock and is still in progress. Nothing definite is known of its resuite, which will prob- ably not be known until well along in the aft- ernoon. KRAMER, PHELPS AND YON DER ANE. There are skeptical ball cranks who did not believe that the conference would be held, and various predictions were to be heard last night and this morning that the magnates, frightened ia the pet that had been given to their plans, had changed the meeting place to Some obscure town on neutral ground. But all such theories were set at naught this morning by the appearance on the reg- ister at Willard’s the well-known signature of Zach Phelps of Louisville and Louis Kramer of Cincinnati. There was no secret business about their coming, and they gave a Sran reporter a cordial welcome when he sent acard up to the room in which they were dis- cussing the coming conference. ‘ith them was President Von der Ahe of the St. Louis club, whose “mailed hand” has been seen more than once in the trials of the association in its conflict with the league. They formed a characteristic trio, those “magnates.” was Kramer, an easy- talking, suave lawyer; Phelps, a quiet, obsery- ant young man, and Von der Ahe, good-natured and shrewd, with his German accent and his enormous watch charm. MR. KRAMER TALKS. ‘Tho idea that the conferees were going to fight shy of newspaper men was shattered by the greeting that was given the reporter as ho entered the little room onthe second floor, looking out on Newspaper Row, in which they Were seated. After the introductions were over Mr. Kramer, who as president of the association was the spokesman, said: “Of course you want to know all about the conference. Well, there is nothing to tell yet. We are here according to szreement, ready ‘to meet the ie shperearthed of the league, who are expected this morning. The hour set for the conterence is 2 o'clock, and we shall prob- ly be occupied for an hour or two at the start. It would be manifestly unfair to them, besides being indiscreet for me, to say what we are going to propose. Iam not certain what propositions will be advanced. A FALSE REPORT. “You can rest assured, however, that there have been s great many false reports started by the papers since the first news of this meet- ing was printed. A majority of the statements about onr positior are untrue. We are going to meet the league people in a reasonable frame of mind, and we hope to find them ready to talk sense. There is one thing, however, that you might say, and that is in contravention of the story that was printed the other day in New York to the effect that the league was going to send business men to the meeting to talk business, while the association had put two lawyers into its delegation to raise technicalities. It is true that tw> of us”——indicating himself and Mr. Phelps—“are lawyers, but all three of us ha had considerable business experience and are prepared to be as business-like and as prac- tical as any one else. We shall try tolive up to that famous clause of the national agreement that was supposed to form the basis of the set- tlement of the Bierbauer-Stovey cases, in which the board of control is directed to settle all controversies in a spirit of ‘equity and fair- ness,’ without raising points of technique. NO MORE SECRECY THAN NECESSARY. “There will be no secrecy about this meeting more than is necessary. We shall meet with closed doors, of course, and there will be but six of us, three on each side. Any others that come will have to wait for their information until after we have come to a mutual agree- | fi ment. Then everybody can know the terms of the peace, if there is to be any.” “Could’ you, by any stretch of conscience, indicate to me any of the points on which the association will insist?” urged the reporter. “No. Our propositions may be mollified by , oF their tone or their degree of friendli- e have our ideas, of course, formulated ness. toacertain slegeee, but we cannot afford to romulgate them in advance. Some one might Pecdisappointed.” Then the talk became more general and base ball in several phases was discussed. Mr. Kramer explained that the cause of the poor support given to the Cincinnati association club was the extreme inaccessibility of the grounds. The management had selected the park on the representations of the local railroad men, who bad promised to give ample transportation facilities by the opening of the seuson. Extra trains were to be run, new electric roads established and various other means of transit afforded, but all of the promises had failed and the spectators were obliged to take slow and circuitous routes to and irom the game, ao that the fara one way often equaled the admission fee. People in one part of the town were often unable to reach their homes after the games until 8 o'clock and the town became indifferent. On hand. the league games do not draw because Cincinnati is and always will be an as- yy. The people are too accustomed 25 cent amusements and 60 cent base ball gan never be popular. Mr. Kramer also spoke of the great success of the change in Boston from 50 to 25 cents ad- mission in the association, calling attention to the extraordinary record of over 45,000 people present at the games in the hub last week. INFERENCES AND GUESSES. From these and other remarks it was in- ferred by the reporter that the association will not readily consent to a surrender of territory in either Boston or Cincinnati. ‘The former is now establishe1 as an association stronghold and in the latte place the management prob- ably intends to profit by this year's mistakes and locate park for next season that can be easily reache ; Ashrewd guesser this morning said that if he was in the prediction busines# he would lay odds ona compromise based on the adoption of a temporary reserve rule and the retention of Boston and Cincinnati by the association. The league fears the approach of that time when the absence of a reserve rule would enable the association té loot every club that is not backed by a bank, and the Astociation—seeing clearly that such & warfare can be conducted by two parties at not averse to surrendering » weak le for the more solid benefits of a town 8 out crowds by the thousands. If the sacrifice should be found necessary Cincinnati may be surrendered, but Boston is to be re- twiaed at any cost. She representatives of the league are Messrs.

A Mail From Destruction on Account ¢; the Rain, The rain last night did some dariage and ‘caused considerable extra work at Pie city post Office, owing to some of the water pipes being clogged. The water poured jn torrents into the room occupied by the rvgistry division on the Louisians avenue east end, and from thence to the carriers’ below, and the employes at once set about saving the letters ‘and books from datrage and succeeded, while some set buckg¥s to catch the water and threw it out, The carriers on duty suc- ceeded aleo ir. saving their mail matter from damage, bit with desks wet and the ceilings above avid the floor benesth both saturated they were working at much disadvantage.

There were thirty-three other pris- oners in the dock, nine of whom were females. ‘When James was arraigned he plead not guilty, but after the ofticor had made his statement tho Judge came to the conclusion that James had made a mistake in his plea, and required him to give bonds in the sum of $20 or go down for twenty days. Sarah Tolliver, an aged colored woman, who looked as if she was greatly in need of » home, plese guilty to a charge that she was likely to ecome chargeable to the District as a pauper, and Judge Harper made some inquiries con- cerning ‘her. ‘The information received was that she had no home, so far as was known, and the judge ordered her commitment to the almshouse.

Policeman Riley, who heard of the boy's fun, told of what he did in the case, and Judge Harper fined Dennis $1. A little colored boy named Eddie Ringgold was arraigned as a suspicious character. He did not exactly understand what “suspicious” meant, but he knew he was guilty of having taken a shirt which did not ‘belong to him: Special Ofticer Ricketts arrested the boy for trying to dispose of a shirt on B street. The garment had been taken from the wash tub and it was still wet when the officer arrested him. Carrie -Jones, the boy's mother, asked tho judge to forgive her son, who, she said, assisted her in the wash tub, besides collecting and de- livering clothes and carrying water. ‘Tho judge gave the boy a lecture and accepted his mother as his surety. A YOUNG OFFENDER. Another little colored boy named Charles Perry was charged under the same ordinance because he picked up some iron along the line of the Belt Line railroad. He, too, was rather young to go to prison, and after Prosecuting Attorney Dumont bad frightened the boy by telling him about the penitentiary the judge released him on his own recognizance. “Guilty of the charge” was Walter Peyton's reply to acharge of disorderly conduct, and the penalty was $5 or fifteen days on the farm. m.

To one who comes to Newport at intervals and examines it good naturedly, it always ap- pears like s place designed by the author of “Alice in Wonderland.” Everything 1s accord- ing to the rule of contrary, and the people go gravely on their way without noticing the vast and laughable incongruities that are enough to make a graven iniage smile. First, it isa so- ciety founded essentially on trade. Bellevue avenue, with its palaces and swell turnouts, has @ rock-bottom foundation of leather, hides, sugar, tobacco, and such. But never was trade so hated and loathed anywhere as at Newport. ‘There, society hus chosen to model itself after that ofa great landed aristocracy, when the only thing that the society people here have not island! Isn't it too funny for anything? Then, they build great houses, modeled after the manor houses of England and the chateaux of France, which are expressly designed for the entertainment of great numbers of guests. But such a thing as a house party is practically un- known at Newport. Imagine the Astors or the Vanderbilts entertaining an average party of twenty persons all through the season! But no—the tind cannot Srasp the idea. Yet they goon building enormo2s houses and living in one wing of them. Guests at Newport, beyond two or three desirable men and a fashionable girl, or a very well couple, would be utterly One couldn't take isjointing and impossible. ten persons to a dinner or a small dance, and 50 guests are fewer here than anywhere ‘else on the civilized globe. It ig- true that one may utilize one’s ucquaintances as guests, by way of getting a footing in society, and it is done very often; but the fact remains that after all the entertaining done here there is but little hos- itality. Life, indeed, ia a great spectacular nction at Newport; everything ix keyed up to the note of beauty and it would be vain and foolish to expect anything else. And, alas! Newport society, the best of it, is deadly dull. ‘The result of this luxurious, material life is, first. to prevent people from beginning to think; and, second, to prevent them from thinking if once they begin. Stray foreigners who come to the United States with great an- ticipations of American esprit among women, and American humor among men, would never find any of it here. The young men and maidens are sham English. “They are_not in touch with American life—nor with English life either, for that matter. They are im- maculately well dressed and perfectly well mannered. The men have, under oll their Nenocring, a certain manliness and courage such as the Duke of Wellington said that _pup- pies usually have. The women are at heart womanly, but they are the dullest Americans that can be found. A Newport dinner is one of the most splendid and stupid functions in the world. It is exactly like dinners given by the great moneyed class, as represented by the rich English merchants—grand, solemn, con- scious, each one anxious to impress his neig bor with his social consequence. There 1s especial depravity in this—it is merely the way that a society founded on money must organize iteelt.
