Delegates Adopting Con stitutional Amendments, — LST OF REINSTATED” WHEELMEN Donoghue Compelled to Leave for Awhile. > GENERAL SPORTING NOTES BALTIMORE, February 13.—There were not more than half a hundred delegates present when the L. A. W. national con- vention was called to order this morning, most of them having gone home. The most important step taken was the appointment of a committee of five, consisting of Messrs. Dean, Massachusetts; Cossum, New York; Harder, Pennsylvania; Cullmore, Texas, and Perkins, Massachusetts, to consider and report upon all appeals for reinstate- ment. ‘The discusson of. proposed amendments to the constitution was resumed, and the fol- lowing were adopted: Providing that all national committees, except those on auditing and local organ- ization, which shall be elected, shall be ap- pointed by the president. Making the fee that must accompany ap- plications of clubs: for league membership two dollars. Requiring such clubs to forward a lst of all their members, designating those who are members of the league. Requiring that members belonging to more than one club shall designate which club they will vote with. Allowing the president to appoint a clerk, at a salary of not over $1,000 per annum. Making the bond of the treasurer $5,000, instead of $2,000. Considerable discussion was had on an amendment designed to limit the voting by proxy.

TWO DEFEATED DONOGHUE. The Crack Skater Was Too Heavily Handicapped. The local starters in the race at the Con- vertion Hall ice rink were badly underesti- mated lest night, and Donoghue came in third, Saunders and May finishing first and second, respectively. The race was for a mile and a half, of fifteen laps,and Saunders was given a handicap of two and a half laps. May had three and three-quarters we thd he ake the same pains wre the laps, and Inglefretz one and one-quarter Japs, he finishing fourth. Strickland and Stites also started.

COLUMBIA ATHLE IC CLUB. Tt) A Large Vote Polled at the Election of Officers. 5 A large vote was polied at the annual election of the Columbia Athletic Club last night, the election being held at the club house and attracting most of the members of the organization. The greatest amount of doubt was about the secretaryship, for which there were two candidates. Alexan- der P. Shaw, however, was elected by a large majority, owing to his popularity and hustiing abilities. The other officers were elected without any considerable balloting, and were as follows: President, Alexander Grant; vice president, Dr. W. R. King; treasurer, R. J. Beall, jr.; club captain, L. +] several of. S. Wells, jr.; lieutenants, T. B. Nolan and Chari. Baker. Six members were also elected to the board of governors, as fol- lows: C. A. Cabrera, George E.

All classes heretofore recognized by the League of American Wheelmen were abol- ished at yesterday afternoon's session of the national convention in Baltimore, and cycle riders are now in exactly the same category as are all other athletes and sportsmen. In future the league will rec- ognize no grades of amateurs, and any rider who does not live strictly up to the rules governing non-professional sport will be placed in the ranks of the professionals. ‘This result was reached by the repeal of all the clauses in the league’s constitution creating classes A and Band defining the status of the men who formerly belonged to them. ‘The convention took this radical. step during Its afternoon session, while consid- ering a large number of amendments to the constitution, proposed by the racing board, I e nm to further regulate and define of class B men. There-were a more of these amendments, — them hadi been ‘. Mott of Baltimore offered an amendment abolishing class B entirely. It was carried almost without a dissenting voice, if, in- deed, there were any, and the chair decided that it was unanimous. Trotting Congress in Session. The National Trotting Association held its seventeenth biennial congress yesterday in ‘New York at the Murray Hill Hotel. Major P. P. Johnston, the president, presided. Representatives were present from trotting associations all over the United States. The committee on nominations, through its chairman, announced the following ticket: President, P. P. Johnston, Lexing- ton, Ky.; first vice president, David Bonner. of New York; second vice president, N. T. Smith of Menlo Park, Cal. The rule regarding dead heats was changed to read: “‘When two or more horses have won two heats, and there shall have oc- curred between them a dead heat, or two or three dead heats in any part of the race, they alone shall start in the next heat.” The congress then adjourned, DEALING IN MARGINS. and designed Another Decision Against the Local Brokers. Judge Bradley has again decided that the purchase of stocks on margin, where there is no actual delivery of the stocks, is gambling, and that the broker selling, there- fore, cannot recover from the purchaser. ‘The case in which the judge repeated his ruling of several days ago was that of Tilford & Maynard, stock brokers, of this city, against Wm H. Dempsey. The plain- tiffs sought to recover the sum of $125, and did so recover before Justice of the Peace O'Neal, whereupon Mr. Dempsey appealed to the Circuit Court. It appeared that the 29th of last No- vember Mr. Dempsey purchased 100 shares of sugar stock at 90. Subsequently, it was claimed, he directed the firm to sell at 98. They «claimed that they could find no purchaser at the latter figure, and also claimed that they were compelled to re- place the stock by buying in New York. They therefore sued to recover the diffe! ence and $25 commission. Mr. Dempsey claimed, however, that when he was told they could find no ‘purchaser at 98 the transection was closed. It was also in- sisted by the defense that there was no actual delivery, and that it was not a law- ful transaction. The plaintifis submitted affidavits of New York parties to the effect that there a delivery on clearing house sheets was both an actual and legally recognized one. Judge Bradley instructed the jury that whatever might be the law and practice elsewhere, dealing in margins, no actual delivery being made of the stock, is gam- bling here, and that money could not be recovered by the seller from the purchaser where such a state of facts existed. A verdict in favor of Mr. Dempsey was there- upon rendered by the jury. a The Y. M. C. A. Parlor Talks. Last Friday evening Foundry Church was crowded to overflowing to hear the in- teresting lecture of Mr. Frank G. Carpen- ter, given under the auspices of the Y. M. Cc. A., on his travels among the Moham- medans from Pekin to Constantinople. The lecture Friday evening, February 14, will be given at the rooms of the Y. M. C. by Dr. Varnum D. Collins, on “A Hor: back Ride Over the Pampas and Andes of South America.” February 21 Prof. J. ture upon the subject of Friday evening, February Merriam will give a lecture on the “Deseris of America.” The two latter lectures will be illustrated by the stereopticon.

Members of Minnehaha Lodge of Good Templars came out in force Tucsday even- ing and had a busy and interesting session. Several propositions for membership were received and one candidate initiated, How- ard Ratcliffe, chief templar, in the chair. The lodge has accepted an invitation from Rachel C. Levy, president of the Soldiers’ Home Union, to give an entertainment at that Institution, and will visit the Soldiers’ Home for that purpose Friday evening, the ‘Sth instant. In response to Chairman Rus- sell of the good of the order committee, Mrs. ‘arric Smith rendered a vocal solo, Mr. R. A. Dinsmore gave a reading and addresses were made by Miss Daniels and Messrs. Vowels of Perseverance Lodge and A. N. Canfield. The anniversary of Washington's birthday will be commemorated with spe- cial exercises by the lodge at its next meet- ing. eS The Golden Cross. At the last meeting of Mount Vernon Commandery, United Order of the Golden Cross, Noble Commander Kenneth S. Mur- chison presided. One application for mem- bership was presented and the degrees were conferred on two candidates. Grand Com- mander Ehle was present, and spoke brief- ly of the early history of the commandery and alluded in complimentary terms to the charter members who are still active in the work of the order. Other remarks were made by the noble commander, M. L. Ven- able, C. G. Harrison, A. H. Feigenbaum, W. H. Main, Miss Florence Lugenbeel, Miss Clara E. Lewis, J. H. A. Fowler and others. The commandery will celebrate its pe anniversary during the first week in wr —_—_— Want a New Trial. A motion for a new trial has been made in the case of Mrs. Ella Taliaferro, con- victed and fined $250 for keeping an un- licensed bar. Two affidavits filed in support of the motion recite that Policeman Allen, who had charge of the case, had talked to Judge Kimball about the matter before the trial. Cardinals Now Die by Twos. From the Saturday Review. The superstition that cardinals die by threes Is so old that it may have originated in the mediaeval days, when the Angel of Death was systematically assisted by polit- ieal chemistry. It was a legend which still obtained general credence in Pio Nono’s time, and was, indeed, supported in the main by a curious regularity of dates. Of course, it is obvious that the mere sugges- tion of such a belief must have gone a long way toward securing its exemplification. The members of the Sacred College were generally men of advanced years, and when one dropped out the rest could hardly re- press the unnerving quains as they won- dered who the other two of the sequence would be. Oddly enough, the experience of the past years affords the foundation for a new su- perstition. The last ten cardinals have died in pairs—Mgrs. Benavides and Desprez in March and April, Ruffo Scilla and Mala- gola in June, Bonaparte and Sanz y Forez in November, Persico and Melchers in De- cember, Granniello and Meignan in this January of the new year. The New Hen. From the St. Louis be-Democrat. H. B. Tucker, a, farmer, who lives four miles south of Sedalia, Mo., hed a colony of fifty Plymouth Rock hens and five roosters. ‘The latter were all killed last Friday, it be- ing Mr. Tucker’s intention to replace them with younger fowls. On Sunday morning, the young roosters not yet having arrived, the entire colony of hens set up a vigorous crowing, almost in perfect imitation of the crow of a rooster, and have continued i each morning since. - IN LABOR<CIRCLES A Oontral Body of the American «Federation to ‘Be Formed. ——— VIEWS OF PRESIDENT SILVER Action Taken on ‘the Death of Ed- -ward 3° Rea. ° : ELOQUENT TRIBOTES ge ‘The labor leaders in this city who have Leen for some time in commurication with Vice President James Duncan of the Ameri- can Federation of Labor in reference to matters have reached the conclusion that the time has arrived for the formation of a central body of the American Federation of Labor in Washington, and arrangements have heen made to hold a m-eting for the purpose in one of the hails in the central part of the city either on Sunijay next or the Sunday following, as may best suit Mr. Duncan's convenience to attend.
