The demo- cratic primaries for the nomination of a candi- date for the house of delegates are in progress in the various wards and the friends of Messrs. Bendheim, Douglass and May are hard at work in support of their favorites. FIREMEN'S VISIT. ‘The Hydraulion Steam Fire Engine Company left the city last night to take part in the fire- men’s tournament at Atlantic City today. They moved from their engine house with torches and the music of the Alexandria drum corps, and were met on King street and escorted to the depot by the Columbia Fire Company with their “plug catcher.” The Hydraulion boys go under command of Foreman Pettit and expect to return tonight. ereur? court. The circuit court, Judge Keith, continues its session. The suit of William Fletcher against J.J. Shipman has been submitted to the judge for an opinion in vacation. In Beach against McVeigh reference has been made to a com- issioner. On the probate side of the court the estate of the Franklin L. Brockett has been committed to the city sergeant for admin- istrationand Wm. H. Adams was appointed administrator de bonis non of the estate of Richard Veitch. NorEs. Among the prominent Washingtonians in this city yesterday were Dr. Joseph M. Toner, seeking memorials of Washington, and Col. Robert Christie, on business connected with the Fletcher Shipman case.

CONFLICTING STATEMENTS AS TO THE ORDERING OF NEW CRUISERS—THE SAN FRANCISCO STOPPED IN PERU—NO SPECIAL CAUSE FOR ALARM ON ‘THE PART OF THIS GOVERNMENT. It is stated atthe Navy Department today that the services of the white squadron will not be needed in Chilian waters during the present trouble there between the American minister and the new government. The fact is that trouble breeds and is healed again so quickly in the South American atmosphere that Ad- miral Walker's sbips, or any othors in Atlantio waters, would get to Valparaiso too late for use. For instance, the Yorktown, commanded by Capt. Evans, will leave New York in about three wecks—the earliest possible date—for Chinese waters by way of Cape Horn. It is es- timated at the department that the ship route to Valparaiso, where she will touch, is at least 9,500 miles, and that, allowing for coal stoppnges ‘and delays due to bad weather, the vessel will be fully Afty days in making that port. It is considered at State Department that fifty days ordinarily suftices for any class of South American politi- cal eruption. of course the recent revolution in Chil lasted six month or more, but that was an extraordinary case. VESSELS SAID TO BE ORDERED. On the contrary, it is stated in today's New York World that “the cruiser Yorktown has been ordered to proceed to Santiago at once. ‘The cruiser will sailfrom the navy yard on Saturday. It will take forty days to reach the Chilian coast. It was said at the yard yester- cay that the Atlanta and the Boston been ordered to Valparaiso.” A DAD BREAK. Much amusement is expressed by the naval officials over the statement made by a New York paper yesterday to the effect that orders had been sent to Capt. Schley to proceed with the cruiser Baltimore from Valparaiso to San- tiago atonce. It is thought that the accom- plishment of this feat would entitle the arctic sailor to wear the largest medal of honor ever presented by any nation. The fact that Santi- 2go is wholly an inland city, built high up in the mountains, with magnificent Andean scenery et its feet, and with no water near it but — small stream that forms cataracts down the slopes, might present an unsurmountable ob- stacle, but in the language of an officer ‘Schley might borrow Abe Lincoin’s idea and take the ship up on stilte.” ‘This merely goes to show the extraordinary amount of guessing without the foundation of fact that has gone on ever since THE STAR an- nounced the occurrence of the conference at the White House on Monday. THE SAN FRANCISCO STOPPED. The San Francisco has been stopped at Paita, Peru, where she unexpectedly touched day be- fore yesterdag, but as yet no order has been is- sued to send her back to Valparaiso. She is to be detained at Paita until the authorities here can discern the exact needs of the American in- terests in Chili. ‘The statement that appeared this morning to the effect thata dispatch has been received irom Capt. Schiey, saying that a cordon of offi- cers now swrrounds the Baltimore in the har- bor at Valparaiso, is not generally believed. It is not tobe aftirmed at the Navy Depart- ment and the impression is that it is not cor- rect. There is no change in the situation at this end, and it looks very much as if the admints- tration had begun to put forth some feclers to learn just how far Mr. Egan is correct and to what extent Mr. Julio Foster's assertions in last evening's Stax are warranted. A Stak reporter bas been assured by a party to the conference of Monday that the case is not at all serious or alarming. To Stimulate Gold Impor’s. The director of the mint, with the approval of the Secretary of the ‘Treasury, today issued special instructions to the superintendent of the United States assay office in New York city that in cases of deposits of foreign gold coin or foreign gold bars at the United States assay of- ficeat New York such approximation of the value of the bullion delivered as in the dis- cretion of the superintendent may be regarded and proper, not to exceed 9 per cent of value, will be paid pending melt and assay. Of course the government cannot legally make payments for the value of gold shipy this country until it is actually receive: counter in New York. ‘he only thing it can legally do is to expedite the payment, thus the ‘above all others that the wheelmen like to use their bicycles on the country roads, and du the next month or two many country riding parties will be given. The rain yesterday was hailed with delight by the bicyclists on account of the condition of the country roads. The dust on many was so deep that even an expert rider could not pass over them with any degree of comfort, and then his ride would cost him 25 cents the next day to get the dirt and dust off his wheel. Now that the roads promise to be good chest- = TO INCRRASE THE LEAGUE MEMBERSHIP. President Dyer of tho Columbia Club, whe has been nominated for chief consul, believes that hecan increase the league membership here by at least 100 ina short time, and this week’s bulletin contained the names of one licants for menil irs. Geo: eigh' indorsement of two standing, or of three reputable citizens of the tee ieracecas league uj ‘ment of an in- itiation fee of $1 and such Ghes for the year as may be provided for in the by-laws. Upon the approval of the board of officers, or a commit- tee thereof, two weeks after the publication of the name in a list of candidates in the official organ of the league the applicant shall become a member.” ‘THE COLUMBIAS’ RUN TO MARLBORO. ‘The regular club run of the Columbias last Sunday wae to Muriboro, but on account of the covdition of the road the attendance was smaller tnan usual. Those who did not go on the run rode to the zoo in the morning and the afternoon they rode through Anacostia to meet the Marlboro party on their return trip, but the bad condition of the road delayed them 80 that the “scratchers” did not reach here until after 8 o'clock, and later the riders came in two or three at a time until all had arrived at the club house. Those who went to Marlboro concluded that “We don't want no more Marlboro in our'n.”” On the road several bad dogs wege encount- ered, but none of the wheelmen were bitten or injured by thom. DOGS AND BICYCLES. ‘The question of dogs and bicycles is prob- lem that has been agitated in many sections where road riding is indulged in. {n New Jersey recently it was suspected that the bicyclists wereexterminating the canines, my dogs had died suddenly along the rontes traveled by the wheelmen, and the result was that there were many cases of tire cutting. The members of the various city clubs are making preparations for the run and smoker ‘Thursday night. Brightwood is the place where the smoker will be held, and it is expected that fully 100 riders will participate in the event. rt wiil be made, as heretofore stated, at 7:30 o'clock from the Columbia Club House. The first club of bicycle riders composed ex- clusively of colored people was organized in this city about five years ago, and now a club of colored riders, male and fomale, has been organized. CHINAMEN ON THE WHEEL There about twenty Chinamen in this city who are now riding bicycles, but not many of them own bicycles. They do most of their rid- ing on Pennsylvania avenue late at night, when the street is clear of vehicles, and many of them delight in ringing their beils to notify destrians of their approach when they are a long distance from the crossinj Another eight-foot bicycle has been invented by Henry Gante of Hazlewood, Ind., who pro- poses shortly to run araco with an express train into Indianapolis. N. D. Loomis of the Southington, Conn.,Cut- lery Company has applied for a patent ona bicycle which he believes can be ridden a mile ina minute or faster ons track and a mile in two minutes onan ordinary road. The rider fits inaide a wheel nine feet in diameter, on the inside of which gear wheels, propelled by pedals, convey the motive power. | The steering wheel is three feet in diameter and follows the big wheel. “Lm sorry, Mr. Slimlegs, but if you intend ge you €2.50 per to ride a bicycle I must cl you are now week more for your board than paying. “Why, Mrs. Chopper, you know I'm only doing it begause te doctor says it will cure my ene eee “Hat's Just the reason I'm making the in- crease, Mr. Slimlegs. ‘The more you eat the more you pay.—Don Salambo in The Bearings. The Nomad Club has accepted an invitation from Miss Lewis Bowen of Hyattsville 0 visit there this evening. Instead of making the trip on wheels over the road the club will goon the train. Century runs are now fashionable and most riders do not like to have it said that they have not made the hundred-mile run. ‘The favorite century run for most wheelmen in this section is to travel over the Shenandoah valley pike northward from Staunton. LADY RIDERS. “Girls of today enjoy a liberty of action that a few years ago would have caused the ancient dames to raise their mittened hands in holy saving interest to the importer, which the di- rector has sought to accomplish by the above regulation. Representative O’Neill’s Opinion. Representative O'Neill of Missouri, who bas just returned from Boston, said to a Stam re- porter foday that thegeneral impression among emocrats was that the election of the demo- cratic candidate for governor was certain.

Woodward & Lothrop’s big store was more than usually crowded today, the occasion being their regular fall opening and the inauguration of what promises to be a most attractive feature. This is a splendidly equipped millinery department, a new depurt- ure, but judging by the admir- ing'crowds that thronged the rooms today, a most popular and successful one, A handsome suive of apartments on the’ second floor and facing on ¥ street have been set apart for this particular part of their immense establish- ment, and all the latest and most be- witehing conceits in the way of hats and bonnets, trimmed and untrimmed, havo been supplied with a lavishness that’ must fairly surprise any one who 1s aceustomed to seeing things done on a small scale. ‘The handsomely furnished rooms were decorated with numerous potted _ plants today, and these, with the bright lights and uaisrors plaged af every available point, made it all look i@'u fashionable roception rather than likeasales room. There were visions of loveliness in Donnets that touched the female heatt to the core, and there was a general expression of satisfaction that Mesers.

An Autopsy Show it to Have Been From Apoplexy and not Poison. Squire Beasley, a young colored man, who expected to marry Adeline Hawkins in a few weeks, died last evening under circumstances which required an official investigation. He had not yet celebrated his twenty- first birth day. For some time he had boarded at the house of his prospective mother-in- law, Mrs. Hawkins, at No. 920 Delaware ue = northeast, and she considered him as one of her own children. He was employed in a stone yard and yesterday morning he got up as usual and went to work, although be did not feel very weil and did not eat any breakfast before going. When he returned home about 4 o'clock he complained of having a sick headache, and his intended bride bound his head in vinegar crats. In that event, unless there is a wonder- ful change of sentiment, the democrats will fail to carry this state and probably several othersouthern states. The alliancelecturershave harped so persistently on Mr. Cleveland’ salleged friendship for the Wall street “gold bugs” and his opposition to the free coinage of silver that they have really made the majority of farmers beliove that he is an enemy to their interests, and they declare that they will not support him again for the presidency. the ex-President is, iowever, the favorite of the non-alliance democrat, not only of North Carolina, but of the entire south, though Hill has some following. especiaily in Georgia. Whether Mr. Cleveland will get the votes of the southern delegates to the national conven- tion would veem to depend entirely upon whether the alliance or non-alliance element of the party controls the conventions. From information in possession of Tur Stan correspondent, it cannot be doubted that the office-holding clement in North Carolinaintends to use its influence toward sendinga Blaine del- egation to the next national republican conven- tion. It is a fact rec Mr. and Mrs. Abe Eisenmann have returned from their wedding tour and will be pleasdl to see their friends at home, 3040 ML street.

On the other hand, he intimates that a “straight” democratic convention may be held, which might “necessitate” a chird party. He also states that himscif, together with the other state presidents of the alliance, isengaged in framing a new subtreasury bill which they propose having ready for submission to Con- gress when that body meets. The claim is made thut if the alliance of this siate goes into the third party movement it will belief that he had been poisoned. The police were notified of the death of Beasley, and Officer Curtis in making the in- vestigation was informed that there was a girl other than Addie Hawkins who loved the young man, but be secured no proof to sbow that poison had been administered by any one. The dead body was removed to the morgue inthe ninth precinct patrol wagon, and this morning the deputy coroner made an autopsy. ‘The result of the examination showed that death was caused from apoplexy.
