Upon taking his seat Chief Justice Faller id that they had assembied to assist in the or- ganization of a judiciai tribunal of very great importance, not only to the people of the Dis- trict of Columbia, but as weil to the people throughout the country.

MR, PLATT SARCASTIC. He Tells How He Differs From Senator Sherman. Ex-Senator Platt has been interviewed in New York in reference to a remark credited re- cently to Senator Sherman in a letter purport- ing tohave been written by the Senator toa Niagara Falls paper, that “as between Tom Platt and Tammany Hall I would toss a cop- | per. | Mr. Piatt presents his compiiments ina re- | ply, im whieh, after comparing himself with Tammany Hall and with he hints thatsoms might not care ot acopper” as between bimself and the Ohio Senator. Mr. Piatt has been trying to find out if Mr. Sherman really wrote the letter, and has ¢ ome to the conclusion that he did. "In a tarcastie vein Mr. Piatt eriticixed himself for having helped make possible the defeat of Sherman in the convention of 1#88 and the election of Har- Tison, and criticised Senator Sherman for his political methods and for tie authorship of the Sherman silver act. “Do you now think the letter was written by Mr. Sherman?” he was asked. “I guess it may have been written by him at some time in the past,” he said. “but I am very sure that it does not at all represent Senator Sherman's present feelings toward me. He did not write it — recentl ‘The date, at all events, was forged. Still, have reason to fear thet subsequently to the republican national cenvention in 1888 Mr. Sherman's sentiment for me was not precisely amiable. It bears on the aurienticity of the letter, moreover. that he has noi taken the trouble to deny it.” After comparing himself from different points of view with Tammany Hall Mr. Platt tg quoted as saying: ““L think I might ve able to suggest, though I should venture it modestly, some points of similarity and difference between Senator Sherman and myself. We agree that it is a good thing to keep on top, and I wish I had the Senator's art of doing it, We agree that it is desirable to maintain ourseives in harmony with public sentiment, and I with I knew how to atttne my views to the varying cuzrents of popular opinion wich that ready skill and easy consistency which so highiy distinguish the tor. ‘The art which enables 4 man to frame and pass a bill in the interest of free sil- ver while retaining the reputation of a sound financier and the leadership of the gold mono- metalists, is really a very useful art in politics, “Tdon't know any other man who, without working his immediate ruin, could be re- sposible for a law making it eternally mandatory upon the United States to spend 260,000,000 annuelly buying what it does not want and cannot use. in the effort to accomplish 4 result which everybody ad- mits to be impossible, and yet Senator Sherman is more admired’ today “than he has been at any point in bis long and magnificent career. ‘The respects’ in which I differ from the Senat ously to my disadvantage. Lam impulsive, wnereas the Senator possesses in the highest degree the power of self-restraint. “I throw mvself hotly into every campaign, working as eagerivto elect a justice of the pence as President. The Senator wisely reserves himself for great occasions, aud it bappens with a regularity which shows how favoringly the fates watch over his personal fortunes that those occasions are always coincidental with that sesssion of the Onio legislature which isealled upon to choose a Senator, or that meeting of a republican convention which “occurs in Presidential _ year. I really think if I only possessed” the calm reserve, the power of insight into the fu- ture, the quality of moving with the tide, and if only I could get rid of superftuous caloric, some kind friend might honor me by saying that as between John Sherman and Tom Piatt he wouldn't care the toss of « copper.” What Senator Sherman Says. Senator Sheriman, referring to this matter to- day, said to Stan reporter that he does not remember having written such a letter, and yet he did not eare to deny that he had. He could not say whether he had written it or not. The language was not such ax he usually used, how- nd he was not aware of any ill feeling existing between himself and Mr. Piatt.

There was a yacht race on the river yester- day, which was an unusual event, as well as one of considerable importance to those who | at 10 o'clock at the residence of Mrs. Wiltse’s validity of the wii are interested in aquatic matters and who hope to seeu return of the day when the winged vessels will be more numerous and of more consequence in these waters than is the case at present. The revival of this sport is due to the enterprise of the Capital Yacht Club. This club was organized only last fall, but it now has a membership of twenty- eight and has a fleet of seven boats. All the yachts are built either here or in Alexan- dria, and they are not only comely craft, but, as was demonstrated by yesterday's race, they possess qualities of speed and quick action that is much admired by all true yachte- men. ‘There were four boats entered for the race yesterday and owing to the difference in the size the contest was made a handicap. The start was made from the Arsenal Point and the course was to River View and return— a distance of twenty miles. There was nota great crowd present to see the start, as the members of the club are rather modest us yet and so did not court publicity, but no doubt in time such an event will have always as wuch importance as the races of the New York Yacht Club. TUE STARTE! ‘The siarters were as foilows: the Agnes May, the Spartan, the Jim Jam = and the Hustler. All the boats are sloop- rigged and carry lots of sail.__‘The Agnes May is twenty-eight feet over all, load ‘water line twenty-three feet. The Spartan is twenty-five fect over all, load water line twenty-two feet six inches. ‘The Jim Jem is sixteen feet six inches over all, load water line sixteon feet, while the Hustler is sixteen feet over all, load water line sixteen foot. ‘The craft carried racing crews of from three to eight men and tlew at the fore the club fiag und the national colors at the gaff. The owners handled the vessels and each one went into the race with the intention of doing his level best to curry off the prize offered by the club— a handsome silver cup. Mr. John H. Wheeler sailed the Agnes May; Mr. Charles F. Karr, the Spartan; Mr. John L.’ Hoeke, the Jim Jam, and Mr. Leonard J. Nilson, the Hustler. Mr. Nilson also designed and built his boat. THE ARRIVAL AT RIVER VIEW. The start was made about 10 o'clock, the | Jim Jam being given the lead, then came the | Hustler, followed by the Spartan and the | Agnes May. ‘The wind was favorabie and the boats got away in good style, their white wings | spread out and welcoming the breeze that | came from the east by northeast. Under the impulse of the canvas, or to speak in nautical phrase the cotton, the boat sped along the line of procession began to un- some changes. Before Alexandr: was reached the spartan, with the Ag- nes May well on stern, over- hauled the Hustier and left her in the rear, ‘Then the Jim Jam was caught up with and for the balance of the course the race was between | the two big boats. It was a pretty con- | test as well asa close one. ‘Ihe Agnes Ma: went to the fron, but off the magazine she was canght and passed by the Spartan, who maintained her lead for a short time, ani then the Agnes May suiled to the front and came to anchor off Kiver View about two minutes alead of her rival. ‘The fiustler brougut up the rear. The yachtmen were quite ready for their dinner and found it ready for them, The trip down was made in ubout an hour and twenty-five minutes. THE AGNES MAY WIXs. ‘The start for home begun about 2:30 o'clock, | the same positions being taken as at the start. | There was more wind and the Spartan | found that she was carrying too much sail and was obliged to put back, und, after recfing down closer, sho made another start. but of course was out of the rac dergo Agnes kept steadily, on passing boats, and came in a winuer by aboxt wo miles, ‘The ‘time was oue hour and a half. ‘The Hustler arrived cecond and the Jim Jam) ird. It is said by some of the members of the | that tho difference in the length of the Agnes Mav as compared with tho Spartan is lly made up by the fact that the former js only thirteen inches longer than the latter in the load water line. It is aiso thought that the Spartan had an advantage in being brand new and light, Alarge number of spectators were on the wharf to see the boats come in, and the mem- bers of the club are very much pieased with the success of their first race and hope that it way result in stimulating the — interost of Doating men and the public generally in this form of sport. _ In the near future it is expected that there will bea race arranged which will not be con‘ined to members of the club, but which will be open to all comers. pane ann THE CASE AGAINST SEKGT. DALEY. It Goes Over Until Friday to Give the Com- missioners a Chance. ‘There were not many policemen left in the eighth preeinet this morning to protect life and property, for nearly twenty ot them were in the Police Court a8 witnesses or interested spectators in the case of Sergt. John C. , against whom Lieut, Gessford preferred a charge of perjury. As heretofore published in Tne Star Lieut. Gessford was tried before the trial committee on charges of intoxication preferred agai him by Nigit Inspector Pearson. Sergt. Daley was the principal witness for the prosecution. It was this testimony tha: the lieutenant charges was false. Before the witnesses were sworn this morn- | ing Judge Milier inquired whether the Com- missioners bad announced their findings, so far ax the charge against Lieut. Gessford is con- cerned, and it wae stated that no action bad yet been taken. ‘Tne court thought that in justice to all concerned the case should go over and give the Commissioners ‘hance of determining the matter irrespective of this prosecution. He thought the decision of the court would not infiuence the Commissioners, but at the same time he thought it only fair that the case be postponed until they had reached a couclu- si jon Lieut. Gessford said that the time the case was first called he made that request in fairness to all concerned, and he was still of the opinion that such should be the case. THE DEFENDANT'S COUNSEL IMPATIENT. ‘Lawyer Weed, counsel for Sergt. Daley, said that his client did not care to rest one hour more than was absolutely necessary under so serious charge, It will appear in the evi- dence, he said, that Serzt. Daley was not the prosecutor in the case of Licut. Gessford, but that the charge was made by Inspector Pear- son and Daley was only a witness, He raid he wanted the case heard as soon as possible, in order that Sergt. Daley might be exonerated and not have the charge hanging over his head. ‘Sergt. Daley has been sent way off to another precinct; he has been sent down to South ington, away from his witnesses. I don't know under what influence it was done. Was it done by the major and lieu- tenant for the purpose of terrorizing witnesses? My client will show that there was absolute truth in every statement made by him before the trial board, and all he now asks is a trial in order that he mzy be exonerated.” Prosecuting Attorney Jeffords said he had reaxon to believe that the Gessford case would be dispoaed of ina few days, and asked that the case go over until Friday. Judge Miller «aid be did not want to force the Commissioners to a conclusion, but he thought they shonld dispose of their case before the court case was tried, He thought that the case had better go over. He said, however, that if the Commissioners allowed their end of tie line to hang too long | the court would, of course, have to hear the ease. ‘A postponement until Friday was granted. _ Emergency Hospital Directors.
