IT IS COSTLY SPORT Expensive to Keep the America’s | Cup. THOUGHT NOT LESS THAN $400,000 Those Who Sail Yachts Must Have Big Bank Accounts. ee WHAT GEORGE GOULD SPENT The America’s cup is worth intrinsically about $350, but such is the sentiment with which it is filled that it -osts directly not less than $400,000 to keep it in this country, and indirectly much more than that, says the New York Herald. There are probably a great many per- sons who would be willing to have the cup go to England, because they think that would increase the interest in yacht- ing and incite the Americans to go over there after the trophy. They do not con- sider how much money is employed about New York on accoupt of the international races. And that does not mean New York alone, but every seaboard port from Balti- more to Portland. So many boats are chartered to carry people out to the race course that New York alone, large as she is, cannot give the required transporta- tion. When ft is considered that hundreds of large steamers are engaged in this busi- ness and that every passenger on board pays not less than $2 a trip for each race, it will be seen at once that the amount of money paid to steamboat companies is very great indeed. Cost to Yachtamen. But that is not the cost to yachtsmen. Somebody must defend the cup. It ts a pa- triotic impulse. The credit which they de- serve is probably not given to the rich men of Boston or New York for science and sall- ing skill. People look at it as simply a sailing race, and they do not think of the amount of money that is back of it. Here are some figures that will be rather surprising. In the first place, Mr. George Gould purchased the Vigilant because, it may be supposed, that she was the fastest yacht afloat. She had defeated certainly the fastest English yacht afloat. He went to the expense of taking her over to Eng- land—which is not a small expense—and sailing her against the best English yachts. That was rather a plucky thing to do, be- cause it gave him, an American yachtsman, an idea of not only what English yachts could do, but what they could do under their own conditions—in their own winds, weather and tides. Const of Defender. Now, the very first contract for the De- fender was not less than $75,000. Subse- quently the sails alor:e cost $20,000, it being necessary to employ three first-class expert sallmakers. A crew of forty men was en- gaged away back in May, and the salaries of these men would average about 45 a month each. Of-course, the Defender was mot launched in May,, and, therefore, in order to drill the men in the management of an American yacht It was mecessary to This Style- —has many admirers! All the new fall tints and black from “Knox” and the other leaders. B. H.

Besides that they had their boarding houses. The Americans took charge of this whole business, and the cost to them was certainly not less than $12,000. After the Defender was launched there Was the item of towing, an item of not iess than $75 a day when the excitement is on. In all this would, during the brief season, with many incidental expenses, be a matter of $25,000. So it will be seen that to the syndicate of Messrs. Vanderbilt, Morgan and Iselin the expense we know of amounts to about $112,000, and probably the total Is very much more, when various items, such as docking and perquisites of the crew, are considered. What Mr. Gould Has Spent. Mr. Gould knew that the same builders, the same designers, who gave the Vigilant were going to give the Defender. It was almost a dead certainty that they would build better than they built before. But, of course, it would be necessary to have some sort of trial, and he was perfectly willing to contribute his share to that. He took the Vigilant over to England and put her through many of the races over there, and then, knowing that she would be required here, he brought her back, to take what he was undoubtedly satisfied would be a sec- ond place, simply in order to give the latest American boat not only a trial against his boat, but also a comparison with the best English boat then afloat. It cost Mr. Gould not a cent less than $75,000 to do this. He did it purely with good will and for the test itself, not really expecting to beat the Herreshoffs’ Defender. Not only that, but he purchased a couple of new suits of satls and new spars, and went to other incidental expense. It was neces- sary for him to maintain a crew during all this time, but he did the whole thing, know- ing almost to a certainty that his boat would not be a winner. It has been said that since the trial races he may lay up the Vigilant, but he may not lay her up, and, instead, he may lay up the steam yacht Atalanta, which, as everybody knows, is one of the largest steam yachts afloat. Expenses of the Clab. ‘What has been told above is the expense directly to certain members of the New Ycrk Yacht Club. But the club itself is un- der a very great tax. ; In 188 the races cost the club $13,000. That was a direct levy on the club itself. This year it will probably be more than that. There is some slight return. For in- stance, the club hires steamers for its mem- bers, ard they pay for the privilege of go- ing down the bay. But this return is slight compared with the whole cost. The club is obliged, or feels itself obliged, to hire the very best tugs to be obtained in New York. If it did not get such boats as could go outside and stand all kinds of weather there might be complaint. The club must have tugs which can go to sea— and every mariner knows what that means —and in this way it is protected against any complaint which may arise, and there is, no doubt, no loophole left. It must be understood that such boats cannot be hired for less than $150 a day each, and the club ergages two of them. For the accommodation of its members and the lady friends of its members, the New York Yacht Club charters one of the best steamboats to be had in New York harbor. This is a matter of $1,750) a day. ‘There is some rebate on days subsequent to the first race, but the cost’ is nearly, or abcut, $6,000 for this item alone. Cost of Dry Docking. There is an immense exchange of money in trade—all of which makes pertinent the remark of Steward Olsen of the New York Yacht Club that it would be rather a mis- fertune not only for New York, but for our nerthern coast, to have the cup go to Eng- land. Why, consider the dry docks alone! To haul up these yachts requires scientific skill. It is a different matter from ocean steamers. The docks are made for ships and steamers. Yachts are of a very differ- ent shape. Therefore, it costs them not less than $150 a day while they are dry. This expense is partly on account of their queer construction. At the same time, sparmakers and all the rest who have to do with yachts are employed, and at the best of prices.“ Everything is cash. The expense of defending the cup has in- creased year by year. From the time of the Countess of Dufferin down to the time of the Puritan it may have cost an average of $27,600 each racing year to keep the America’s Cup where it kelongs. During the Puritan year it cost $30,000 for a single boat. Besides the Puritan we had the Priscilla and the Volunteer. The Priscilla herself cost $35,000. The cost of the con- _ The America’s Cup. struction of the Puritan was $30,000. The expense began to jump up about the time the Boston boats were factors In the trial races. The yachts which had defended the cup before had cost on an average $25,000 each. The Puritan was more than that, the Priscilla was more than the Puritan, and subsequently the Volunteer—which was more expensive than any of the previous boats. At the time the Vigilant was se- lected to defend the cup there were three other yachts—the Jubilee, the Pilgrim and the Colonia. All of these cost a large amount of money. It might be said, in a general way, that the eutlay from 1851 down to 1S8Tl was about $50,000 for such expense as yachts- men now term incidental. The Genesta race cost not less than $25,000, the Galatea races cost not less than $28,000, and the Thistle races $30,000, while the races of 1893 were almost $40,000 more. Otherwise in Other Days. The matter of hauling out a yacht for inspection and repairs was not thought of in the earlier races. At the time the Countess of Dufferin sailed for the cup such a thing as dry docking was not con- e sidered necessary at all, nor was it regard- ed as an essential thing to have a steam tender. The crews were not so large nor so well paid in those days, and they were not engag2d for so long a time. The expense has been accumulative in re- cent years. The Volunteer cost about $37,- 000, the Pilgrim about $30,000, the Jubilee $34,000—that was the direct expense. While the expense in the defense of the cup is so great it is well to consider that the ambition of the English yachtsmen de- siring to capture it costs them no less, and, in fact, rather more, because they have to come over here with a large crew of men, and must ship their spars by the fast ners and go to other incidental expenses which Americans know not of. The expense from 1851 down to 1871 was approximately $50,- 000, but the Genesta’s trip must have cost $25,000, the Galatea’s $28,000, the Thistle’s $30,000 and the trip of the last Valkyrie not a “bit” less than $36,000. A SMALL CHALLENGER. The English Yacht Sprace IV to Race for the Seawanhakn-Corinthian Cup. J. Arthur Brand, the English challenger for the Seawanhaka-Corinthian Yacht Club's new international challenge cup for balf-raters, arrived in New York yesterday on the steamship Fulda from Southampton. Mr. Brand brings with him his new half- rater, Spruce IV, one of the fastest yachts of her class in Great Britain. Spruce IV is very nfuch the same in gen- eral dimensions as E@helwynn, the Ameri- can defender, with the exception that the home boat has six,inches more beam, Spruce IV being only five feet six inches eatreme beam. Spruce IV is twenty-three A Half-Rater. feet six inches ovér all and about fifteen feet six inches on the waler line. Her wa- ter line length is fully a foot greater than Ethelwynn's, and,she has, ther2fore, a smaller spread of . Under the rules of the Yacht Racing As- sociation of Great Britain, Spruce IV is allowed to carry’ 190 square feet of sail, but as a mattet ef fact she carries 210 square feet, the additional twenty feet be- ing obtained by bringing the foot of the jib about three feet aft of the mast. Under English rules, the area of jib aft of the mast does not count, as only the fore-tri- angle is measured. In her Seawanhaka races, however, Spruce IV will be rated ac- cerding to the actual area of her sails. In her English rig she carries 145 square feet in her lug mainsail and forty-five scuare feet in her jib, but she will not sail with this rig in American waters. She will have a new rig, which was designed especially for these races. The area of the new rig will probably be | about 2,200 square feet, but this will not be known definitely until It is ofMfclally meas- ured. Capt. Canfield Wants a Stiff Breeze. NEW YORK, September 10.—The World prints the following interview with Capt. Cranfield: “I don’t think that one race wins the series by any means,” said Capt. Cranfield lsst night. “Saturday's race was no true test of the respective merits cf the two boats. We labored under great disad- yantage. These excursion steamers gave us all their back wash and particularly ham- pered us on the run home. I think it is an outrage the way they treated us. We are here for sport, and we have a good boat, but if they interfere with our sailing as they did Saturday we will never find out what the boats can do.” “Do you think you will stand a better chance ff there is a good, stiff breeze?’ was asked. “Indeed I do,” said Capt. Cranfield. “Give us a good, stiff breeze and we will surely win. I think Valkyrie will do well in stiff weather. If the wind had not hauled to the south Saturday Valkyrie would surely have turned the mark first. A race in such a fluky wind is no test at all.” Commen Yachting Phrases. ~ Salling clese hauled is sailing to the windward.

The Cambridg¢-Oxford Team Ready for Play in Philadelphia. The Cambridge-Oxford team of cricket- ers arrived in Philadelphia last night ang were met by a cOMimittee of the Philadel- phia Cricket Club, consisting of BH. .S. Buckley, jr., Capt./Brockie of the Univer- sity of Pennsylvania team, J. H. Patterson, H. H. Kingston and John H. Mason. Mr. Mitchell's team -were in excellent health and promise to ‘give a good account of themselves Fridayand Saturday, and Mon- day of next week:in the first game on Phil- adelphia soil at Wissahickon Heights. Their showing at Staten Island and latterly at Tcronto has stamped them as being worthy representatives of England’s national game, and the coming iater-university match will dcubtless prove, of great interest to al] lovers of cricket, as well as every student and alumni of “Old Penn.” DOUBTFUL ABOUT A FIGHT. Corbett’s Friends Do Not Believe It Will Come of, NEW YORK, September 10.—A morning paper prints a report that Champion Cor- bett’s friends do not believe that the tight with Fitzsimmons will come off, and that consequently he is not training. An intcrview is given with Parson Davies, who says: “I saw Corbett about a week ago and I did not like his looks, He did not seem to have the life and energy which he formerly possersed, and his eyes were dull and listless. I attributed this to the fact that he had been knocking about the country a great deal playing ball, attend- ing theatrical performances, keeping late hours and other dissipations. Corbett is @ wonderful man, though, and a great fighter. If he trains all right and enters the ring in fit condition there is no doubt but .ne will whip Fitzsimmons. Bob, how- ever, is in great condition right at this time, and will put up an awful fight. If Jim jis not right up to the mark he may suffer defeat. I do not attach much im- portance to what I hear of the condition of the two men, for I don’t belfeve they will meet, at least not in Texas. When a governor of a state announces that he will stop a prize fight he usually means what he-says, and in this instance I think Goy- ernor Culberson is in earnest.” Another of Corbett’s friends, Al. Smith, says: “Oh, Jim, don’t need much training. Five or six weeks will do. He will do ample training in time to meet his oppo- nent. Fitzsimmons is working hard aud will do. credit to himself, but the fight, if Stein) will result ia a victory for Cor- tt.” LOST THREE STRAIGHT. Washington Glued to the Toboggan Slide.

When the news came by wire yesterday that Philadelphia had lost the second game to Louisville, some one shouted down the fact to Patsy Tebeau. “Oh! we are not bothering about Philadelphia,” said Patsy. “If we win this game today we will win the pennant.” But they didn’t win. Lange stands among the leaders in the number of stolen bases. He has stolen fifty, and leads the Chicagos in this re- spect. It is said that Hutchison and Ryan of the Chicago club are playing their last sea- son, as they want to go into business. The star play of the day at Baltimore yesterday was made by Gleason in the sixth inning. Childs hit a line fly over sccond base, which looked like a certainty for a base, but the “Kid” by wonderful sprint- ing got up to it, and, jumping into the air, pulled it down with one hand. It was a wonderful catch, and set the crowd wild. Amateur Base Ball. Sunday's game between the Farmers and the Pecks of Georgetown, resulting in fa- vor of the Farmers by the score of 13 to 12, was one of the best amateur games of the season. The winning battery was Leonard and S. Mulligan, and their op- pcnents Smally and Loveless of the George- tewn Athletic Club. The features of the game were the fielding of Vermillion and H. Mulligan, and the winning home-run hit by Vermillion. The Farmers would like chal- lenges from all teams in the District, Na- tionals, Blakes, Shamrocks, and Harlems especially. Address H.

AMNESTY TO OUTLAWS, Action Taken by the Jockey Club at A a Special Meeting. ‘At a special meeting of <he stewards of the Jockey Club, held at New York last evening, the following resolutions were adopted: “Whereas the stewards of the Jockey Club have received many applications for reinstatement from trainers, owners and jockeys, who, owing to the uncertain con- dition of racing in this state prior to the enactment of the present racing law, raced, trained and rode on courses 10t sanctioned by the Jockey Club; and “Whereas the stewards recognize that, | under the extraordinary circumstances then existing, the temptation to derive a revenue from their property, even at the risk of disqualification, Induced many own- ers to do what, under other circumstances, they would not have done: “Resolved, That an opp>rtunity be given all owners, trainers and jockeys against whom no charge of fraud has been estab- shed and whose only offense has been racing or riding at an unrecosnized course to be restored to good staading cn filing an application with the stewards cf the Jockey Club prior to September 16, 1895. ‘Notice is further given that on and after September 10, 1895, any cwner, train- er, jockey or horse concerned directly or in- directly in a race run at an unrecognized course shall be denied the privilege of this general amnesty. - “That after the Ist day of October, 1898, any horse trained or stabled at an un- recognized course, or any trainer training the same, or any jockey riding the same, whether during a race meeting or other- wise, will be thereby disqualified.” This action of the eastern turf organiza- tion has been long expected, it being pre- dicted in The Star last spring that when the fields on the Jockey Club’s traoks be- came reduced general amnesty would be extended to horsemen racing on outlaw tracks that the fields on the alleged im- Maculate tracks could be so increased as to render betting better and the attend- ance larger. It 1s not beileved, Lowever, that the horsemen who have been racing on the outlawed tracks will to any great: extent desert them for the Jockey Club tracks. Certainly that is the belfef as to those horsemen who have been racing at the St. Asaph and Alexander Isiand tracke. Of course, a few of them will desert those tracks, but the great majority feel that the action yesterday of the Jockey Ciub was a purely selfish one and taken only to down those who have, at a general ioss, taken care of outlawed horsemen when no other tracks were open to them. It ts not at all improbable that the Virginta tracks will in turn outlaw those horsemen who now desert them. It is known that both tracks have been run at a great loss this summer, and now, when the season of profit is about due, they will undoubtedly take such steps as will prevent any ma- terial loss of entries. An English Four Coming. AUSTIN, Tex., September 10.—A cable- gram has been received at regatta head- quarters from London, announcing that England would send a champion four- cared crew over here to the Austin regatta in November, to compete with the Amer- ican and Canadian teams. The English team will comprise Harding, Bubear, Win- gate and Sullivan, and they will probably bring Barry with them. Gaudaur will be with the Canadian team and Teemer the American. This will be the first four-oared international championship rowed in this country since 1873. Boxing at the Eureka Club. There will be three bouts at the meeting of the Eureka Athletic Club this evening, the chief of which will be.a twenty-round go between Jack Hanley of Philadelphia and Frank Wango of Norfolk, better known as “the Indian.” Johnny Glynn of Wilmington and Jack Daly of the same city will spar four rounds for sclentific points, and those old rivals, Tody Banks and Aleck Brown, will meet for twenty rounds, to finally settle the question of su~ periority. GLORIOUS RECEPTION Victorious Rifle Team Receivéd With Red Fire. Big Turnout of the National Guard to Act as an Escort—An En- tertainment. If there was at any time a doubt in the mind of any member of the District rifle team as to whether the efforts of the team at Sea Girt last week were appreciated by the people of the District, that doubt was forever dispelled last evening when thou- sands of people crowded the streets to bid the victors welcome. The line of march from the Baltimore and Potomac station to the National Guard armory was ablaze with colored lights and fireworks, and to them were added the hearty cheers of the multitude. That it was a proud moment for the men there was every indication, and that the District was proud of them was equally plain. It was after § o’clock before the train bringing the remaining members of the team reached the city, and they found awaiting them at the station the members of the team who had reached the city be- fore them. Maj. George H. Harries, the captain of the team, and the inspector general of rifle practice of the National Guard, promptly marshaled his men, and about 8:30 the notes of a bugle notified the assembled multitude that the full team had arrived. With Corp. Tom Jones of the first separate battalion bearing aloft a large sign, on which was painted the legend, “1097. The World's Record,” the team, attired in the regulation fatigue uniform, with their guns in cases, marched out of the station and up 6th street to the avenue. Their appearance was the signal for wild cheering, and it did not cease at any point along the route. The Big Escort. On the north side of the avenue the Dis- trict militia, under the command of Lieut. Col. Clifford S. Walton, was drawn up in line awaiting the team. The first bat- talion, under command of Acting Maj. John 8. Miller, hgd the right of line, headed by the National Guard Band of twenty pieces. Company A of the battalion was command- ed by Lieut. H. J. Keogh, B by Capt. C. M. Shreve, C by Capt. C. H. Ourand and D by Lieut. P. J. Duffy. The fifth bat- talion, under the command of Maj. Otto Suess, followed, Capt. G. E. Jenkins com- manding company A, Capt. George Phebus company B and Capt. George W. England company D. After the fifth battalion marched the rifle team, as follows: Maj. George H. Harries commanding, Capt. J. E. Bell, Lieut. A. O. Hutterly, Lieut. Chas. Laird, Sergt. James Stewart, Corp. Morris Appleby, Corp. Robt. Carlton, and Privates G. E. Cook, S. I. Scott, J. B. Wetherald, F. L. Graham and H. H. Leizear, the team proper. With them were Capt. Parmenter, the quartermaster; Licut. Vale, the adju- tant, and Lieut. Young, Privates Cookson and C. McC. Taylor, alternates. Behind the riflemen marched the pro- visional battalion, commanded by Maj. R. A. O'Brien. Company B (National Ri- files), commanded by Lieut. Manson, headed the battalion, the other bodies being: Com- pany C of the sixth battalion, under Capt. Streeks; company B of the third battalion (Lemon Rifles), under command of Capt. Mattingly; engineer corps, under command of Lieut. Holt; the cavalry troop, under command of Capt. Barbour, on fcot, in full uniform; the ambulance corps, under Lieut. W. D. Fales, followed by the second sep- arate company, the military cyclists, under command of Capt. F. H. Wiggins, with twenty-five men strong. The left of the line was made up of the first separate battalion, under the com- mand of Maj. Revells, and was composed of the following commands: Company A, Capt. A. Brooks, Lieut. F. L. Dodson; B, Capt. P. B. Meredith, Lieut. Piper; C, Capt. F. F. Webster and First Lieut. Hail; D, Capt. J. H. Campbell and Lieut. Johnson; staff officers—Adjt. A. K. Brodie, Surg. T. L. Upshaw, Inspector of Rifle Practice L. F. Cardozo and Quartermaster Judd Mal- vin. 2 An Entertainment. The line of march was by the avenue to 15th street, New York avenue to the Na- tional Guard armory, the first battalion dropping out at 14th street end New York avenue, Arriving at the armory the pa- rade was dismissed, and then the team were escorted to the top floor, where they were heartily congre:ulated. The men were ad- dressed by Maj. Harries, who told them that he and the people of the District were proud of them and that there was every reason to believe that next year they would render as good account of themselves as they had done last week. The team were given three hearty cheers and a tiger, and then Capt. Parmenter, their quartermaster, marched them to Dismer’s restaurant, where they were refreshed.

Placed in an " _ Awkward Position. : CHAUNCEY - DEPEWS — INTERVIEW His Opinion of Mr. Cleveland Not Satisfactory. THE THIRD TERM QUESTION Chauncey M. Depew finds it difficult to speak of Mr. Cleveland in a way to please either political party. And yet he seems to be fond of the theme. He eulogized him in such terms at a dinner party in New York several years ago that the democrats made use of the tribute in the campaign of 1892, very much to the indignation of the republican managers and equally so to Mr. Depew’s own discomfiture. The parti- san emergency forced him into an explana- tion or qualification of his remarks. Again he has taken up the subject, and this time the democracy objects. This latest tribute seems also to be loaded. His Latest Utterance. Mr. Depew speaks from London in an in- terview by cable. He still thinks very highly of Mr. Cleveland, but confesses that he is halting somewhat between two opin- icns about him. He is as yet unable to decide whether the President is simply an adroit man playing in phenomenal luck or @ realiy great statesman threading his way with the eye of genius through the most trying comphcations. But however this may be, Mr. Depew has no doubt whatever oi one point. Mr. Cleveland, in his opinion, is the strongest man in the democratic Party, and as such is likely to be nominat- ed for the presidency again. The cry of Caesarism will not prevail against him. But, all the same, the nomination, Mr, Depew predicts, will be rejected at the polis. This will follow, because the de- Mocracy, as he insists, stands hopelessly discredited before the country. ‘A The Sting of the Deliverance. Here is found the sting of Mr. Depew deliverance. The democrats complain that he puts the third term proposition in its most offensive and damaging form, so far as their party is concerned. He suggests the strongest argument against a third term now. They admit that they see no manifestation of what is called Caesarism in Mr. Cleveland. He would never develop into that most dreaded specter, the man on horseback. If elected President for another term they believe he would administer the office as he is now doing, and be willing to surrender it at the end of the four years. But what they are corsidering is the at- titude in which the party would be placed by putting Mr. Cleveland again at the head of the ticket. How the Democrats Pat It. The case fs put in this way: A party, so-~ Uciting power at the hands of the people, meets in national convention, adopts a plat- form of principles, and nominates a ticket. The assurance is given that if this action is ratified at the polla these principles will be applied to the affairs of the country, ‘The principles are not only those of the candidates, but of all the members of the party. The candidates for President and Vice President are supposed to have car- vied off their honors largely by reason of the strength and influence of personal characteristics and good generalship. They will, if elected, aid in the carrying out of the platform, but so would any of the other aspirants had they been chosen and elect- ed. It is the party that is pledged the most deeply, and it is the party the coun! is asked to’ accept. ¥ ae The One-Man Principle. For this, leading democrats point ont, Mr. Depew, a republican, proposes to hig opponents the substitution of the one-man principle. He would have the democracy go into national convention and publicly confess that it is so riven and demoralized that as a party it can lay no claim to pub- Uc support, but as the possessor of one very strong and capable man, who will again carry its banner, it respectfully so- Ucits a continuation of favor. This is the democracy’s danger, as democrats see it. The party, they insist, must not be put in any such attitude, for, as they admit, a party occupying such an attitude would neither receive nor deserve the support of the country. This is a government by par- tes, not by strong leaders, and the appeal to the people must always be made in the neme of party. If the democracy is to nope to win next year, it must be by the pro- claiming of a policy which any of its lead- ers would fitly represent, and, if elected, wouk? loyally carry out. If it should ap- pear that the party is so reduced that but one candidate remains to it, the danger to the country will lle the party and not in that candidate. The Republican Party. The comparison, naturally, is with the re- publ'can party. Harrison, Reed, McKinley, Allison, Morton, all are aspirants for next year’s leadership, and all are in substantial agreement on the questions of moment. Differences of opinion as to the degrees of protection that ought to be afforded by the tariff exist, but the principle of prote:tion is indorsed by the whole quintet, as are also sound money and a vigorous foreign policy. So that, under any leader chosen next year, the republican party will stand for a definite policy, certain, in case of re+ publican success, of adoption and enforce- ment. And that is the sort of party union in which only there is strength, The dem- ocratic leaders are trying to guide by it in arranging their affairs. eS A JEALOUS GOVERNMENT CLERK. A Warrant Issued for Him at the In<« stance of a Young Lady. A warrant was issued from the Police Court this morning for the arrest of a gov ernment clerk who is employed in the sec- ond auditor’s office, in the Winder building, If the case comes to trial it will probably make some interesting reading, even if it does not cause a breach in a now happy, family. The complainant in the case is a young and rather pretty woman. According to her story, she was walking along the ave- nue with a “gentleman friend” when the government clerk came up and took her by the arm, in an effort to take her away from her escort. In order to avoid any trouble or notoriety, so she says, she and her friend left the avenue and walked down to Missouri avenue. This was after dark last Saturday evening. When they were in front of 461 Missour! avenue—though it was quite dark, she is’ certain that the number was 461—she says she was vs- saulted again. According to her story the government clerk, who, by the way, is @ married man, is jealous of the attentions which she has received at the hands of the man with whom she was walking Satur- day. ———._ _—_ DENMARK’S COPYRIGHT LAW. + Am American Author Cannot Protect His Work There. In a Aispatch to the Department of State, dated Copenhagen, August 28, 1895, Min- ister Risley informs the department of the result of a recent investigation made by him on behalf of an American cltizen con- cerning the copyright law of Denmark. The question was whether it was possible under the laws of that country for a citi- zen of the United States to obtain copy- right there for a book written by him and printed and published In the United States. This question was addressed to the director general of foreign affairs, who replied that according to the laws In force the protection of a Nterary work published in the United States could not be secured in Denmark, the protection of literary property being subject to the condition common to forelgners and to Danes alike that the work must be published in Den- mark te secure the protection of the copy- right laws of that country. Mr. Risley adds that after examining the laws of Denmark on the subject he finds that the only condition of obtaining copyright is publication within the realm, no matter where the work was composed or printed,
