Y., December 11.—Now that the foot bali season is over, the interest at ‘Cornell centers in aquatics. It will be but a short time before the candidates for the crews will be hard at work in the gymna- sium, under the direction of Coach Court- ney. The Associated Press representative last night had a talk with Dean White, the faculty advisory member on athletics in the council. Prof. White said: “We lave not as yet arfanged dates for the race with Harvard or the triangular contest with Columbia and University of Pennsylvania. We will have but a single ‘varsity crew next year, which will row for Cornell in both these races. I agree with the growing sentiment among Cornellians, that a crew should be sent to Henley for the purpose of clearing up our record over there. In case we send a crew next spring, it will, think, be"the same as race in the two American centests. . “As to the proposition to hold a regatta between Yale, Harvard, Cornell, Columbia and Pennsylvania on the Hudson, Cornell, while she might enter, will make no ad- vances in ‘hat direction at present. We have all we can do to arrange for our races with Harvard, Columbia and Pennsylvania. I think we did all right in entering for the visitors’ grand challenge cup in England last year, except that we erred in taking only twelve men over to choose from. If we go again, we will take twenty candi- dates or more alorg, and will profit much from our former experience with the cli- mate and training. SUSTAINE THE U) PIRE. Action Taken by the District Basket Ball League. The District Bask2t Ball League held a special meeting at the Naticnal Guard Ar- mory last evening. Oscar P. Schinidi, the president of the league, presided, and the attendance was excellent. The meeting was called to dispose cf the frotest tiled by the Potomac Wheelmen to the effect that Um- pire Bieber’s decision in ruling one of their men off the floor in their jast game with the Washington Light Infantry Corps was wrong. The protest was signed by Charles P. Greene, the manager of the Wheelmen, who followed up his written statement by saying that Mr. Bieber’s decisions through- out the game were entirely in favor of the Washington Light Infantry Corps, and that the umpire had said that the Wheel- men were too weak to play the soldier boys, any way. The infantry boys clatmed that Raab was pat off the floor in accordance with the rules, and that the game should go on the standing of the clubs as won by them, the game being given to them because the Wheelmen refused to play longer. Quite a discussion followed, but when Mr. Schmidt put the motion, it was decided by a large majority In favor of the gaine stand- ing as it is, and upholding Umpire Bieber. Secretary F, P. Libbey took advantage of the opportunity to urge that umpires be more strict in their rulings, and that two umpires should be used in a game. The lat suggestion passed without ac- tion, however, as did one to the effect that an umpire be allowed to rule a player off without warning. It was generally con- ceded that the rough playing in the games should be stopped, “and the egates pri ent concurred heartily that the umpir should exercise their full powers to stop it. It was also decided that as a timekeeper and referee had tod much _ respons the positions hereafter should be occu; by two persons instead of one. The de present were as follows: Cycle Corps, lexander and Wiggin; Mr. Gumiell; Light In- y, 3 House, MeCabe and FE. Schafirt; Potomac Wheelmen, Greene, Wies- bader and F. Raab; Carroll Institute, Ma rice Joyce; ¥. M. C. Tade and Mon Wash ngton Athletic Club, Martin and Wil. kerson. A special meetig will be called soon to decide on the adoption of the additional schedule of games for the three mouths af- ter December, Centrals and Orients. The Central High School foot ball team lined up for their last game of the season with the Orient Athletic Club this afternoon at National Park. The Centrals hold the championship of the High Schools, and the Orients think they should be given a try for the championship of ihe District, so that it is probable a very interesting game will be played. Manufacturers and Racing Teams. It is repor®ed in bicycle circles that seven of the bicycle manufacturers of the coun- try, including the Pope Manufacturing Company, E. C. Stearns Cycling Company, Syracuse Cycling Company and Morgan & Wright of Chicago, have agreed not to send out class B racing teams next season. About two months ago the racing commit- tee of the cycling board of trade sent out a series of questions to all the bicycle manu- facturers of the United States regarding the employment of class racers for 1890. Out of about fifty answers received, thirty- four manufacturers expressed themselves as against the employment of clags B rac- ing teams to follow the national circuit. Forty-two of the fifty expressed them- selves as being willing to enter into an agreement not to do so. The decision not to employ class B racers is said to be the outgrowth of this atterpt to sound the manufacturers and see what they would do in case a break was made. Costly Mistake for the Judges. There were more complications at the Ingleside track at San Francisco yesterday. In the secend race Endymion finished sec- ond to Kowalsky, but the judges evidently had the numbers mixed, and awarded sec- ond place to Elsie, who was 300 to 1 in the betting, and wlio finished abzolutely last. After the bets were paid the judges discov- ‘ered their error and awarded second’ place to Endymion. The association will conse- quently have to reimburse the bookmakers on all money paid out on Elsie, who was 60 to 1 for the place. The Pool Experts at Syracuse. The latest results of the world’s pool tourney at Syracuse were as follows: Af- ternoon game—Walsh, 108; Stofft, 125; Sut- ton, 125; Horgan, 123 Evening games—Eby, 88; Sherman, 125; Clearwater, 125; Wa.sh, 81. Jim Mitchell Dropped. Jamies S. Mitchell, champion weight throw- er of the world, and one of the former idols of the New York Athletic Club, was dropped from the rolls of that organization lest night. He had been summoned to appear befere the athletic committee to answer charges pending against him, but he failed to appear, and the members of the commit- tee passed a resolution recommen ling to the board of goverrors that Mitchell te dropped, the resolution being «dopted unani- mously. The nature of these charges meine Mitchell have not been inade pub- ec, The St. Petersburg Tourney. Owing to Lasker's late arrival in St. Pet- ersburg, the international tournament will not begin before Friday. Pennsy's Profit on Foot Ball. The annual meeting of the Athletic As- | sociation cf the University of Pennsylvania developed a surprise yesterday. George Q. Horwitz, chairman of the rowing commit- tee, and Frank ®. Ellis of the track ‘and field sports committee, were defeated for re-election as directo: Horwitz's defeat is ascribed to his opposition to the introduc- tion of the Ellis Ward stroke. No explana- uon is offered of Eilis’ defeat. There are no other changes in the board of directors elected. Jchn C. Bell will look after fcot ball interests and John P. Sims the other sports. The treasurer's report showed the gross receipts from the past foot ball sea- son to he $36,250.17, and expenditures, $ o & a net balance of $22,653. A Benefit Basket Ball Game. There will be a benefit game of basket ball this evening at the Washington Light Infantry armory between the teams of the W. L. I. C, and the Corcoran Cadet Corps. Both teams are in first-class shape, and it is expected that an interesting game will take place. The W. L. I. C. team has not heen selected, but the C. C. C. team will consist of Davis, Dodge, De Moll, Collins, Lockhead, Schroeder, Prosise, Walters and ‘Thompson. —— A COMMITTEE OF LAYM Appointed to Go to New York to See Dr. Satterlee. A mevting of the representatives of the Jaity cf the Protestant Episcopal parishes of the city was held last evening in the parish hall of the Epiphaay Church. The purpose of the meeting was to take some action which would convirce Dr. terlee, the bishop-elect, of the earnest desire of the peo- ple of this diocese that ne should accept the cffice of bishop to which he has been elected. Commissioner George Truesdell presided, and Seymour W. Tulloch acted as secretary. It was developed in the course of the dis- cussion that the sentimeat was unanimous in favor of Dr. suttertee s accepung We call, and the only pot at issue was whether a committee Should be apponteu to accom- pany the comuuttee of tne ciergy wnicn left this morning to cail on Dr. satteriee, or whether a aelegat.on of laymen should foi- low the other commuttee and aad its weight to the appeal of the clergy. A resoluuen Was olfered by Dr. ‘tnomas B. Hood tur the appointment of a committee to draft resi lutions expressing the wishes of the laity that Dr. Satterlee should accept the call. committee, consisting ot Dr. Hood, J. Hold: worth Gordon and Lewis J. Davis, was ap- pointed to draft resolutions, and they re- ported the following: Resolved, That the laymen attached to the Episcopal Church of the D.strict of Colum- bia and the adjacent county have learned with profound satisfaction of the action of the primary convention in calling to the diocese of Washington Henry Y. Satterice of New York, who, though not known to them personally, his by his effective work in New York, by bis learning and by his great ad. ministrative abilities, and sympathy with the poor and afflicted, so commended him- self to their judgment as the one whom they desire as their first bishop; that they are led to add their petition to the more formal expression of the will of ihe convention; that he be influenced by the Divine Spiri which was invoked in the first gathering of the representatives of the new diocese, and that he may see in this call a suggestion of great opportanity for the advancement of the universal church, in the spread of the Gospel, and from this center of influence, religious, political and social, may help to place our branch of the catholic church in the position which belongs to her as pure in doctrine, American in statesmanship, and most human in the brotherhood of man. Resolved, That the presentation of this ap- 1 frem the laymen of the new diocese be made to Dr. Satterlee by a committee of laymen from among the attendants at this meeting. The resolutions were unanimously adopted and, on motion, a committee was appointed tc select representatives to accompany the committee of the clergy in their call upon Dr. Satterlee. The following were selected: Lewis,J. Davis, W. H. Webster and Gilbert B. Tewles. This committee, in company with the committee of the clergy, left this morning on the 10 o'clock train for New York. THE BOSTON V TER WORKS. to Be Delivered by En- tegerald at Willard Hall, There will be an interesting lecture in Willard’s Hall this evening at 8 o'clock by Mr. Desmond Fitzgerald, a member of the committee of engineers now examining ‘the aqueduct tunnel, his subject being “A Short Description of the Boston Water Works.” Mr. Fitz: rald, who is also resident engineer of the additional supply works and superin- tendent of the western division of the water system of the Hub, is well qualified by ex- perience and knowledge to speak authorita- tively on the subject he has chosen, and those of our citizens interested in the im- portant question of the water supplies of great cities will, it is safe to be well repaid for their attendance upon Mr. Fitz- gerald’s lecture, which will be ilustrated by means of lantern slides. The Boston water works have cost the people of that city about $25,000,000, and are regarded as a model worthy of imitation. Admission to the lecture will be free, and all citizens wishing information on the topic of the evening will be welcome at the hall. ——— Criminal Court.

Ave. THE LONG BRIDG A Small Gang of Men Making Current Repairs. A rumcr was current yesterday to the ef- fect that the Pennsylvania Railroad Com- pany had begun extensive alterations and improvements to the Long bridge, it being stated that a gang of men, numbering at least 50, was to be set to work, with a view of practically rebuilding the struc- ture. At the local supervisor's office a Star re- porter was infurmed that a force of men, about fifteen in number, is engaged today putting in a few new timbers that have rotted In the course of time, and also re- laying some of the rails that have become unfit for further service. This work, it was stated, is only such as becomes nec from time to time, and there is no signifi- cance whatever in the fact that workmen are engaged on the bridge. No alterations are being made to the readway, and the werk in hand has no relation to the use of the Pennsylvania tracks by the Mount Ver- non railway, according to the supervisor's office. It was also stated that the office entirely ignorant of any contemplated al- terations or extensive improvements to the bridge. a THE CIVIL SERVICE LEAGUE.
