P. Tucker, the deputy contro'ler of the cur- rercy, with a view to ascertaining what corditions would be imposed in case the stereholders should desire to reopen the bark. Many of the stockholders, it was i,were mea of wealth and stand- irg, and for the good na the city and community they desired, if pessible, to reopen the bank and discharge every obligation in fell. Mr. Tucker in- vormed Mr. Hammond and Mr. Griffith that the controller would not discourage any ef- ferts that might be made toward resuming, but, on the contrary, would render them every assistanc? possible. First of all,how- ever, it would be necessary to ascertain the exaet condition of the bank, and when = *%as done he would be gla: dvise with them as to any further m- Yond and Mr. Griffith s that there was no possible doubt but that Bank Examiner Miller committed suicide.

The game between the home team and the Kentucky Colonels yesterday w: in- teresting chiefly because of Joyce's remark- able Latting, three home runs being secured by the local captain. The game was a fairly exciting one, the score, despite the heavier hitting of the Senators, being close throughout the nine innings. A bad case of ratties in the seventh inning, however, nearly caused the defeat of the home team, the visitors making three runs when they should have been shut out. Joyce went to the bat five times and hit safely four times, three of the hits being homers, one to right center, the second to right and the third away over the right-field fence. His fifth hit was a liner near the right-field fence, Just being caught by Smith. Hasamaear got three hits and Radford got two, and the latter played an excellent game, some of his plays being “away up.” The umpiring of Hurst was about perfect, his decision in reference to Knell being right. Cartwright unfortunately was not touching the bag by several inches when the Louisville pitcher passed him, and be- fore he did touch it the runner had shot past bim and was correctly declared safe, de- spite the protests of the home team’ and the bleachers.

The new Easton team, he says, will be composed of strong players, several of whom will be ex-Allentown players who refused to go with Kelly in the Eastern League.

Pittsburg Players Shaken Up. A shakeup in the Pittsburg club was an- nounced yesterday. Pitcher Colcolough was released, but will be retained if he gets in condition.

Feeling tn England Unfriendly to the Americans, SOUTHAMPTON, Eng., August the Vigilant is still in the Udal dock here, and further examinations of her centerboard, its trunk and the yacht's Keel will be made today. LONDON, August 21.—The Pall Mall Gazette this afternoon, referring to the Vigilant’s mishap with her centerboard, says: “The excitement and mystery In yachting circles is simmering down to a general feeling which can hardly be pro- nounced friendly to our American visitors." The Times says that the Satanita will defend the Cape May cup against the Vigilant. The race for the cup will take place on September 9. Until that time the Vigilant will not engage in any race. Pilot Diaper of the Vigilant, who was sent by Mr. Gould to explain ‘to the the sailing committee of the Royal Yacht squadron the nature of the accident to the Vigilant on Saturday, informed the commit- tee that the Vigilant’ struck twice on Goose Rock, outside the Needles, and that he was ignorant till then that the centerboard had dropped deep down.

Unwilling to Announce Intentions Regarding the Lords, Replying to a question in the house of commons yesterday as to what action the would take in view of the house of lords’ veto of the evicted tenanis bill, Sir Wm, Vernon Harcourt said that while this was the greatest question that can cceupy the government's attention, it was inadvisable to make a statement on this subject #t present. Thomas Sexton, anti-Parnellite, asked if in views of ihe veto of the evicted tenants bill and the home rule bill by the house of lords) the government would define its po- sition in the next queen's speech. E Sir William replied that the veto of this measure constituted the gravity of the sit- uation. The government was fully im- pressed with the necessity for dealing with it, but today the government was not pre- pared to make any statement in regard to its policy. government soe Swarms of Grasshoppe Formers of Steuben county, N.

AFFAIRS INIGEORGETOWN a $x Good Cross Countty Riders in the Neighbor- bee —— Chevy Chase Hent Club—-A New ington — Many Notes. During these hot weeks, when hard cross. country riding is unseasonable and un- wholesome to both man and horse, the Chevy Chase hunters are recreating with polo, Over in the field on the opposite side of the road to their club house, where are pitched their hurdles and bars, the sport is daily practiced. Messrs. Harry Earle, Louis Earle, Lindsay and Halloway are the most enthusiastic players. Mounted on some of the jewels of the stables, they take to it as if their success in life depended upon the outcome of the games. Harry Earle and Halloway are acknowl- edged to be the best players the club has. It's a “toss up” between them. Halloway is the master of the hounds and trainer, a man who almost prefers the society of horses to men. He and his “stable boys, “Jim” and “Hogan,” watch them with the care and attention that only heir presump- tives to royal thrones get. The regular winter riding contests will begin about the opening of November. They promise to be spirited and novel. Many new features will be introduced to make the chases attractive to both riders and spec- tators, They will this year possess more social features than ever before. The Chevy Chase hounds are now at New- port, in charge of Mr. Butterfield, who fre- quently hunts them. Mr. Halloway, the master of the hounds, left yesterday for the Leesburg fair, with feur of the club’s high jumpers, viz. Top Rail, Moccasin and Fannie W., who will be entered in the hunting class and the high jumping contest. Mr. Halloway'’s son Sydney, a twelve-year-old, sixty-five-pound jeckey, will ride Top Rail. ‘This light weight is expected to give Top Rail considerable advantage over his antagonists. Halloway, senior, will ride Moccasin and Fannie W. Mr. John Hanake of 2Si6 Dumbarton avenue, who has been suffering from a fracture of the foot for the past three weeks, is now able to be out. New Chure The work on St. Mary’s (colored) Church at Tenleytown, which was stopped through the depletion of the congregation's treasury, is to be recommenced, as arrangements are now being entered into through which the needed money will be obtained.
