The majority and minority reports of the committee on ways and means on the condition of the treasury were completed yesterday. The | report of the majority claims that at the end of | the ensuing fiscal year there will be a deficiency | smounting to from $30,000,000 to 40,000,000. | The minority report, signed by all the republi- | can members of the committee, says the concla- sions from the evidence presented with the re- port seem wholly unwarranted and misleading. | ‘In fact, there seems to be an utter inck of evi- dence to justify any of the criticiems of the | majority upon the statement of the Secretary, which showed a surplus in the treasury on the | 30th of Jane, 18%. On the basis of state | ment of the Secretary of the Treasury it would seem that the amount of either surplus or de- ficiency in the treasury on June 30, 1894, would be very smail.”” o—-— AT THE IVY CITY TRACK. Five Good Races Yesterdsy—Only Two | Favorites Won—Summary of the Events. A fair attendance, fine weather and five gvod races were the features of the racing at the Ivy | City track yesterday afternoon, The scratch- ing of fourteen horses, however, reduced the tields considerably, although enough remained in to make fairly good contests.

This race was adash of about « mile, the start being in the betting ring and th back of the village fi | of Ivy City. The only starters were # man in charge of the bookmaking firm known as the “-Gieu Island Club” and Mr. Frank Primrose. who manages the betting ring for the jockey ‘The bookie got the best of a ranning start, but Primrose got the decision, the purse just night being withheld. The race was the result of “welching” on the part of the bookie on the second race, An examination of the firm's tally sheet showed that the bookmaker stood to cash checks for $625, while he had taken in $643, ing out $18 abead on the race. Very little money was found in bis and it appeared that he had handed his money onfederate before he attempted to run ‘The confederate had disappeared. prisoner aaid that bis friends would make good the shortage of $625 if he was given time. Friends were sent to Baltimore to raise the money and he was detained at the Oxford Hotel. None of the race-track people knew the name of the “welcher” or anything about his antecedents. Mr. Primrose said: “I am convinced that this man isa tool for others. His principals are in Baltimore.” ‘The ticket holdere will lose nothing by the defalcation, as the club will make good the face value of the tickets if the bookmakers produce the money: otherwise only the money put up will be refunded.

This instrument, the tones of whichare said to be such as no human ear ever heard from any other, was ordered from Nicholas Lupot, a pupil of Stradivirius, whose work excelled that of his master, in 1815, and was finished in 1818. After a somewhat re- markuble history it came in 1840 into the pos- session of Dr. Hawley, the famous Hartford collector of violins, who presented it to Remenyi in 1878. “Her Ladyship,” as Remenyi call this beloved instrument, cost Dr. Hawley about $20,000. but the price set on it by Remenyi is simply fabulous. In fact he would not sell itat any price. He has acollection of instruments, works of Guauarius, Stradivirius and others, which he carries with him, and which are in- sured for $90,000, aes Army Orders.

Boykin of the fifth Maryland regiment and Gov. Brown just previous to the parade in this city on inauguration day Col, Boykin may re- sign his position. Should he determine upon this course the result may be disastrous to that well-known organization, as most of the officers would follow his example, and such action would probably result in the disbanding of the regiment ‘The trouble arose either from the fact that Gov. Brown gave a proper order for the move- ment of the regiment, which was misunder- stood by Col. Boykin, or else the general made a mistake and gave an order that cuuld not be executed according to the new regulations, The trouble between the general and the colonel, according to statements of officers of the National Guard who were present, wi to. misunderstanding and difference of as tochanging the position of the brigade. -The troops were in columns on 2d street, facing south, the fifth regiment having the right of line and its right resting on Capitol street. It is claimed that Gen. Brown desired to bring the troops into close column formation, company front, on Capitol. street, facing west or toward the Capitol, in which di- rection they would march when ‘the order for marching came. Right here is where the difference occurred and there are several stories ax to what order Gen. Brown gave. According to tactics, he should, it is said, have vent a staf officer with orders to Col. Boykin to change position and form in column of masses on Capitol street. There are several ways in which this could have been done. It is said, however, that Gen. Brown personally ordered Col. Boykin to form “elose column of companies, faced to the rear,” and that Col. Boykin replied that it would be inexpedient to do so, Some words followed, and Col, Boykin tendered the general his «word, after the general had assumed command and verbally issued an order to the regiment. Gen. Brown directed Col. Boykin to give his sword to the general's junior aid. The latter was not revent, and at ihat momont Adjutant General Bougias rode up and asked. Col. Boykin to take command of the regiment. In the meantime Gen. Brown had brought the regiment into the desired position by changing direction to the left, which carried the regiment from 2d street into Capitol street, and then forming close col- umn. Shortly afterward Gen. Brown sent Col. Brune, his chief of staff, to Col. Boykin with the message that Col. Boykin was not undor arrest, Col. Boykin then resumed command of the fifth. ——__—+e+ Souvenir Coin In compliance with many requests, Tae STAR has secured, for the accommodation of its patrons, a supply of Columbian Exposition Souvenir half dollar coins, which will be far- nished at cost price,—one dollar each.

The schools receive from the state (in addition to quarterly receipts) at close of school year $1,783.38, known as the free school fund. Mr. Stone adds that a large percentage of the schools established in the last ten years have been by legislative enactment; that time has shown that they were needed, since the houses are now filled with children; that additional school facilities will be demanded Before the close of the present school year; that the people of the county are interested in the education of their children, and are unwilling tohave schools closed, and that it is evident that a heavy debt must be incurred or the schools must be closed very soon.

A Revolution In Eating has been brought about by the introduction of CoTToeng, the new vegetable shortening. The discovery of this product, and the demonstration of its remarkable qualities, has attracted the widest interest. Hitherto the common shortening has been lard, or indifferent butter. Every one has probably suffered occasional dis- comfort from lard-cooked food; while it is well known that thous- ands are obliged to abstainentire- ly from everything of that kind. To such people, CoTToLene is of peculiar value, widening as it does, the range of what may be eaten and enjoyed. CoTToLEeNE is a cooking marvel. It combines with the food—imparts to it a tempting color, a delicate flavor, and an appetizing crispness, No trace of greasiness remains to offend the taste, or disturb the digestion. CorToLene is worthy of the careful notice of all those who value good food, of itself or for its hygienic properties. Sotd by Leading Grocers. Made only by iN. K. FAIRBANK & CO., ‘CHICAGO and ST.
