Potomac Wheelmen, There is a good dexl of talk going on about a reorganization of the Potomac Wheelmen, by which the club will be an entirely bicycle organization with no other athletics introduced. There is now a basket ball team and a foot ball team, and these do not appear to gee very well with cycling. Very few runs were taken by the club this season, and unless some change ts made matters will to all intents be worse next year. During the year the bicycle made one great jump into popularity, and the number of cychsts has doubled ‘In the twelve month, until now the estimated population of riders is placed at 18,000. ‘Tke most notable increase, perhaps, was in the ranks of the fair sex.

Lord Dunrayen and His Charges Re- garding the Defender. Lord Dunraven and his friend, Arthur Glennie, suddenly departed for Great Brit- ain Saturday afternoon on the steataship Umbria, carrying crestfallen countenances and every appearance of having come off ‘very badly from the Defender investiga- tion. Dunraven failed to substantiate his charge that the Defender was fraudulently ballast- ed last summer in the race for the Ameri- ca’s cup. He would not admit that he was mistaken, but he said to a reporter: “I have no complaint to make. The hearing was im- partial. I do not expect to win.” Mr. Glen- nie said the hearing had been a sad mat- ter. Members of the New York Yacht Club say Dunraven fought until it was useless to fight any longer, and now the question is, Will he apologize? Nat. Herreshoff testified positively that the Defender was not deepened. She never had more than three tons of movable lead ballast, and it would have been suicidal to put fourteen tons in her. On Saturday more witnesses were examined,and the tes- timony was all against Dunraven’s charge. After the adjournment for luncheon Lord Dunraven went aboard the steamer to re- turn home, leaving his lawyer, Mr. Ask- with, and Secretary Hamilton to represent him. As the steamer moved off a few on the dock shouted, “Good-bye, Lo-d Dun- raven,” but the earl hurried to the other side of the vessel. Mr. Glennie remained and bowed his acknowledgments. ——_—_ Against Liquor in Music Halls. The police in New York have begun a warfare against the sale of intoxicants in the big music halls.
