It is unfortunate that the big college boat race this year will not be rowed at Saratoga at the time of the Nationat Amateur’ Oars- man Association’s regatta. .The union of the events would do more for rowing thaa anything élse, .The Saratoga course is su- perior to that at Poughkeepsie. The Cornell-Hatvard-Golumbia-Pennsyl- vania race willbe o¥er a four-mile course and will be rome at it the middle of next June.’ ‘The asst regatta’ will-not be rowed until aft bst 1. The course has rot*yet been de pon and two places are in considerati ie Hudson course at Poughkeepsie ee Sprifigfield, Mass., course. Mr. George L. Rive has heen offered the position of refeyee! apd has accepted, Mr. Rives is a graduate of Columbia College and of Cambridgé. is a member of the special committge siesta by the New York Yacht Club to ipvestigate the charges of Lord Dunravér agtfinst the management of the Defender ,jn the recent international yacht races.

At Yale headquarters nothing could be learned as to Yale’s probable action in en- tering the race yester¢ The undergradu- ate officers. will jnot ; jtalk until they have consulted “Bob” Cook and George Adee. No cne at Yale denies thet Yale should ask to enter, if the authorities want a rac The case is exactly the same as the H. Columbia-Yale freshman ce last yea Harvard and Columbia arranged the race and Yale asked to enter. This can serve as a precedent of Yale policy. It is believed that the graduates will not sanction a re- quest to enter the race until the conditions are made known. College politics will not influence the decision so much as the ques- tion of having a staked course to prevent fouls and excursion steamers disturbing the course. Still, this race appears to be Yale’s only chance of a race, and all hope that the navy will come to 4 speedy understanding with the graduates and settle all doubts as to a race. Yale will be admitted to the race only by the unanimous consent of the colleges in- terested, but there is no doubt about that consent. The athletic council at its next mecting will also pass upon the matter of allowing the Sage Coliege girls to form a crew.

Public Meeting Instead—Corporation Court and the Grand Jury— Broke Open Cars. There was a jcint meeting of the com- mittees from the different organizations in this city last night at the Relief Hook and Ladder Company's rooms on Prince street, with Mr. M. B. Harlow in the chair and J. H. Trimyer secretary, for the purpose of devising some plans of celebrating the 224 of February. Mr. Park Agnew stated that he kad talked with several business men in regard to having a parade on that day, and found that they were sot in favor of a parade, but preferred a public demon- stration of some other kind. Mr. M. B. Harlow also said that he had talked with several of the business men, and that they had ali expressed about the same opinion. Mr. Harlow then suggested that a public meeting be held at one of the halls in this city on the evening of the 22d of February and that Washirgton’s farewell address be read, and that some one be Invited to de- liver an address, the meeting to be interspers- ed with singing and music. Upon motion of Mr. Park Agnew it was deemed not ex- pedient to have a parade. A committee of six. were appointed to make ull the neces- sary arrangements to hold a public meet- ing at the opera house on the evening of the 22d. The following gentlemen compose the committee: Messrs. D. Ruben, J. H. Strider, Mr. Hopkins, Park Agnew, J. H. Trimyer and M. B. Harlow. The meeting having no further business on hand ad- journed.

The judge, in his charge to the grand jury, alluded to the curb which had recently been put upon sell- ing Hquor on Sunday, and said that this state of things had been brought about by the exertions of Mayor Thompson and the officers under his charge. He further said that the attention of the grand jury would be called to these cases of the violation of the Sunday law, and that he wanted them to send in indictments in each and every case brought to their notice. The grand jury returned the following indictments yes- terday: Peter Kitts, colored, for house- breaking; Martha Parker, larceny; Abra- ham Berwanger, selling liquor by sample without a license; Wm. Geary, larceny from the person; Annie Hughes, keeping a house of ill fame, and Talcas Tate, petit larceny. The will of the late Chas. L. PoweN was admitted to probate.

The police have at last succeeded in ar- resting the man who has been breaking into the cars cf the Southern railway. Yester- day afternoon about 2 o'clock Mr. Benj. Shacklett, an employe of the company, was on Union street, when he saw a negro boy named Samuel Dudley in the act of break- ing into a Baltimore and Ohio car. He called to him to halt, but as soon as the negro saw him he started to run, and Mr. Shacklett followed him. Several other em- ployes of the company’ joined. in pursuit After running three squares about fifty col- ored men had also joired in the chase. The boy stopped and picked up several stones. The mob gathered around him and dared the white men to touch him, and, not deem- ing it safe to attempt to put him under ar- rest then, the employes reported the matter to the police, and last night Officers Dean and Sherwood succeeded in landing Dudley behind the bars. Mayor Thompson this morning, after hearing the evidence, sent him on to the grand jury, which is now in session, Charters Granted. Judge J. K. M. Norton of the corporation court yesterday granted a charter of in- corporation to the National Base Ball Club of Washington. The capital stock of the company is to be $20,000.

Caton is named as the agent in this city. Judge Norton also granted a charter to the Potomac Fruit Company, the objects of which are to buy and sell land, erect build- ings and carry on a nursery, fruit growing, canning and trucking business. The cap- ital stock of the company is to be $25,000. Mr, Nat. Chapman of Washington is presi- dent and Mr. H. A. Hungerford of Fort Foote is vice president. The principal office of the company is to be in this city, and Mr. John W. May is agent. _ Police Court. The police on duty last night report the night as being clear and cold, with five prisoners and fourteen lodgers at the sta- tion house. Mayor’ Thompson this morn- ing disposed of the following cases: Wil- ton Skelton and Robert Fitzhugh, colored, arrested by Officer Dean, charge, disorder- ly conduct; continued until 7 o'clock to- night.

He Regards the Demoncetization of Silver as n Mistake. Mr. Foraker in his remarks to the mem- bers of the Ohio legislature, yesterday, said, after announcing his firm adherence to the principles of the republican party: “I believe also in bimetalliem. (Applause.) I believe the world:made a mistake when it demone- tized silver. I sincerely hope some safe way may be found for the restoration of silver its rightful place alongside of gold as a money of ultimate redemption. I shall favor every measure calculated, in my judg- ment, to bring about that result, subject al- ways, howeve:, to the condition that it pro- vides for the maintenance of the parity of the two metals, Every dollar of money is- sued by the United States governmen’ whether gold, silver or paper, must be of e: actly equal value with every other dollar. The United States cannot afford to have a currency system or a money standard less good or less high than the best in all the world.” ——_—_—_—+e-_ Americnzn Purity Alliance, The first session of the American Purity ‘Alliance conference was held in New York Tuesday night. In his opening address Pres- ident Aaron M. Powell stated that the ob- jects of the alliance are “the repression of vice, the prevention of its regulation by the state, the better protection of the young, the rescue of the fallen, the extension of the White Cress work, and to proclaim that the law of purity is equally binding upon men and women.’ ————-ve. The Fitzsimmons-: aher Fight. Martin Julian, manager of Bob Fitzsim- mons, passed through San Antonio yester- day from New York on‘his way to El Paso.

The Attempted Revenge of a Rejected Suitor. ‘An attempt was made yesterday to blow up a tenement house in New York con- taining over one hundred people. Mrs. Elizabeth Ruhl, widow, lives, with her son, on the top floor of the five-story tenement, 2487 2d avenue, there being sev- eteen other families in the house, over one hundred persons. Shortly after 6 o'clock in the mornins, while Mrs. Ruh] was standing at the wash- tub in her apartments, there was a loud explosion in the room. A great hole was plown in the chimney back of the kitchen stove, and bricks, laths and plaster were sent hurling acrcss the room against the opposite wall.
