A dispatch to the New York World today frem London says: Prince Bismarck has re- ceived a representative of the World at his ccstle at Friederichsruhe. The correspend- ent called by appointment with Count Rantzau, the son-in-law ¢f the prince, who erjoys the closest, most confidential rela- ticns with the-great chancellor. The World requested an expression of opinion Prirce Bismarck on international ar- eat diplomatisi’s view red by the World in a demic or theoretic sense, if Bismarck wished it to be considered so, on the ultimate success of such a peace treaty between two great nations as that pending between Great Britain and the United States, and asked specificaliy if be would consent to express himself wheth- er such a treaty, if ratified, would be likely to bear the strain of a grave international rupture—in short, whether serious differ- erces between rations might not in future be settled by arbitration instead of by war. Prince Bismarck’s answer was made through Count Rantzau yesterday in these the merits of the arbi pending in the United States Senate the prince has not a word to say. He wishes it to be understood that the opinion now expresses is purely theoretical or ademic in respect to arbitration of dis- putes between nations, not as an expre: sien upon the merits of the peace treaty agreed upen but not yet ratified between n and the Unite s. Wpon to make no Bismarck declares emphatically eats war, though he has been driven to advocate it where there no other means of settling disputes, and where the fate of the vaterland was in- velved. rbitration he would certainly, have pre- ferred could he have expected that the d jon would Fave been such as he con- sidered to be just. It is only nec ry to remember, however, the Caroline Islands and the pope's decision against Germany ration treaty In private life,” Prince Bismarck’s state- ment continued, “the value of any agree- ment between different persons, however precise the wording, depends entirely on the character of the contracting parties, and even then there are the law courts to ppeal to whenever differences arise. “But whose is the law court, any law ccurt, in fact, which could eventually en- ferce its sentence in the case of two great nations entering into a treaty of arbitra- tien? “No statesman in this werld is so power- ful as to be able to command the voice of in certain emergenc! itration treaties will hing war as the sole means of set- nent of a dispute when the whole future a nation is believed by its people to de- nd on the way the tissue is settled. ‘The terrors of modern warfare inued the iron chancellor's statement, “the uncertainty as to what the end would be will do more, at present at least, to pri vent than any treaties could do. On the people are d enough to com- prebend that war is a double-edged sword, the aggressors often being the losers, then war will “The present agitation in Great Britain and the United States in favor of interna- ticnal arbitration proves how humanity has a need. It is to be applauded for that on if not for anything else."* ++ Consulates Restored. The consular and diplomatic appropria- tion bill has been reported to the Senate by the committee on appropriations. The com- mittee increased the total appropriation made by the bill to the extent of $22,000, making it $1,695,308. One item of the in- crease is $10,000 to pay for printing a new edition of Wharton's Digest of International Law, and another $5,000 to pay a half year's salary to the heirs of the late Pierce M. B. Young of Georgia, minister to Hon- duras and Guatemala. The committee re- stored the American consulates at Horg:n, Switzerland, and Alexandretta in Asiatic It also extended the tranking lege to the bureau of American re~ publics. ik THE OHIO SITUATIO: It is Complex, but Everything Will Come Out All Right. Ohio members of the House now admit that the situation in that state is complex, and three of them expressed the belief to a Star reporter that nobody in Washington knows how the matter will end. One of the’ best-posted men in the delegation says that he knows it to be a fact that Gov. Bush- nell has fully made up his mind not to give an {idea of what he will do until he receive the formal resignation of Senator Sher- man. He considers it ill-timed to express any opinion until there is official ground for it. All of the members talked to say that the situation is not what it is rep sented by the democratic newspape declare that everything will come right, despite the stories of increasing tion in the republican ranks. 'V' also expressed that Lieutenant => Governor Jones is not an applicant for the senator- ship, and will do what is best for the united interests of the party.

DeBray, a special agent of that department engaged in investigat- ing the market value of goods shipped to the United States. He was a native of New York, and was appointed foreign agent in December, 1890. He was regarded as a valuable officer, and is credited with having performed excellent service for the protec- tion of the revenue.

SS ee CURRENT SPORTING NOTES Manager Wheelwright of the Yale navy, in an interview at New Haven last night, branded as false a statement sent out from New Haven yesterday afternoon in regard to the Yale-Harvard controversy. The statement was made that Yale had firally formulated an ultimatum including an agreement to enter the Harvard-Cornel race on the Hudson. Mr. Wheelwright stated that negotiations were nearly at an end, but he said they were being conducted in the same manner as they have been for the past month. No ultimatum has been drawn up and Yale has not formally offer- ed to Harvard any ‘agreement which in cluded a promise to enter the Harvard-Cor- nell race. Nor has it been definitely de- cided to send the crew to Henley, providing a settlement with Harverd proves impas- sible. At present everything regarding a definite policy in boating and other branch- reference makes it well nigh in- dispensable to every one who de- sires to keep in touch with latter day events, copy. For sale Evening Star Office. Twenty-five cents a all newsdealers and at The es of Yale athletics awaits the solution of the present difficulty. It is well known that this week will see the end of the long and much-discussed Yale-Harvard squabble, but a sensation was caused in athletic circles at New Hav- en last evening when it leaked out that Capt. Philip Bailey of the Yale crew was at Cambridge consulting with some of Harvard athletic committee. The manage- ment refused to discuss his mission, but it was learned on good authority, when Jerry Simpson, bow in the ‘varsity boat, took charge of the crew candidates yesterday afternoon that Captain Bailey was spend- ing the day at Cambridge. It is thought this is the climax to all the correspondence that has been passing to and fro since Yale’s first ultimatum broke up negotia- tions, and it is expected that Captaia Bailey will bring back a faverable report. The management have promised, through Walter Camp, as a medium, to issue a for- mal statement of the whole matter in a few days. A Cambridge, Mass., dispatch says: Cap- tain Bailey of ‘the Yale crew was here to- day and had a conference with Captain Goodrich of Harvard in regard to the ath letic difficulties between the two universi- ties. Captain Goodrich would say nothing whatever as to the result of the meeting, but intimated that it might have some bear- ing on the final settlement of the matter. He said that Captain Bailey’s visit was cf an official nature. Whether Yale has made any di tinct prop- esition through Captain Bailey is not krown, but his visit here is regarded as very significant. Harvard has decided to row but one race, Yale will have to en- ter the Cornell, reve -er there will be no meeting in aqua’ between the crimson and the blue this year. It does not seem at ail unltkely that Yale will ultimately agree \to Harvard's original proposition, which ditt not necessarily in- ton Yale entering }he Cornell race. The exact proposition made by Harvard cannot be divulged at present, but no conditions were made which did not bear equally on both partie: ANTIPODEAN BALL PLAYERS, American to Re Inyaded by a Nine From Auptralia. SAN FRANCISCO, Fpijruary, 9—America is this year to be invaded by an Australian ball team, and the admireres of the na- tional game will have a chance to witness a serie of internatioal contests. Amer- icans have, had’ htkrifatiopal ; athletic sports, yachting,, lacrosse, crieket, but in- ternational base ball will be a decided nov- elty. American teams haye tried conclu- sions with other countries, but never in America. Consequently the tour of the Australians will attract widespread inter- est. Manager Musgrove can be expected here by any steamer. He will be remem- bered as the manager of the last Austra- lian cricket team that visited this city, and has been given carte blanche to arrange all preliminaries. It is intended to send over fifteen men. The following nine has been definitely chosen: Laver, Ingleton, McAl- lister. ay. Wallace, Kemp, Ellis, Smith and Ewers. The Melbourne Leader, in dis- ssing the proposed visit, si “Mr. Mil- ford and others who have had extensive experience in the game, both in America and Australia, express the opinion that if they had some coaching, with a first-clas: pitcher, and their matches are arranged continuousty, is every reasonable spect for the undertaking being success- ‘The Saengerbund a: letic Club rolled a set of ten pins on the alleys of the former last night.

St. Louis Pencilers ‘Suffered Severely Yesterday. ST. LOUIS, Mo., February 9—Money in large, comfortable lumpe. was taken out of the St. Louis pool roums yesterday by a method by which nearly every stricken bookmaker in town teurfully declares was “a plant.” The “killing? was made on the first two races at San Francisco, and would have been repeated on the third had not the scar-d bookmakers refuged to accept any. bets whatever. Rumpr, has it that the trick was engineered from Cincinnati, but this is mainly because*the heaviest winner hails from that town. It is reported that the plan was worked in other cities, and that the total winnings of the gang are nearly as large as those made during the New Orleans meeting last year. The Cincinnati crowd opened operations by plunging heavily on Basquil, winner of the first race at Oakland. The money went on in a lump at post time, bet nothing was thought of it until the same crowd came around for the next race and placed large bets on Palmerston a few seconds before the operator yelled “‘they’re off. Palmerston was at 8 to 1, and when he won hands down there was consternation. Hayden & Schrieber’s place held up the winning until the official confirmation was .| received, for the firm was several dollars in the hole. While the tickets were being paid, word was received that nearly all the other pool rooms had been “struck” on the race and the manager abruptly refused tu pay out any more money. In the middle -of the excitement members of the supposed gang Were putting money on >, The odds were promptly wiped won. Rumor has it that the “job” was man- aged by “beating the service’ ” and not by usual wire-tapping methods. It is said that results of San Francisco races are first wired to New York and thence distrib- uted to the various pool rooms. By gettirg the results direct it is thought the service in the rooms might be beaten by a few minutes. The bookmakers decline to state the exact amount of thelr losses. Ten Eyck Hopeful. Ned Ten Eyck, the champion amateur oarsman of America, who is to row for the diamond sculls at the Henley regatta in July, said yesterday, at Worcester, Mass.: “I think I have a better chance to win than any American who has competed as yet. I have never been headed in a race yet, and have beaten the acknowledged American amateur champion, Dr. M. 8. McDowell of Chicago, in a fair, square race, and if I am beaten at Henley it will be because there are better men on the other side. “I shall keep at my indoor training until the ice is off the lake, when I shall begin rowing. I will get into first-class shape, and go to England by June 20, which will give plenty of time to recover from the effects of the ocean trip. I shall have my boat built in England. “The diamond sculls have never been won by an American, but I will do my best to bring them home to Worcester.” Lavigne Defeats McPartiand. The twenty-five round bout between the lightweight champion, George (“Kid”) La- vigne of Saginaw, Mich and “Kid” McPart- land of New York city, which was brought off last night at the Broadway Athletic Club in New York, resulted in favor of the former. That McPartland could last the limit in face of such a rapid fighter as La- vigne was never dreamed of by the most sanguine of his friends, but he did it, and by doing so his stock has gone up wonder- fully in the pugilistic market. These two boys met for the lightweight championship at 183 pounds, and each weighed in to the others’ satisfaction. Lavigne, of course, was the favorite. but @ great many bets were lost and won as to the duration of the bouts. Many people thought that the New Yorker would not stand ten rounds before the champion, while others placed their hopes in his be- ing able to withstand Lavigne's rushes for fifteen rounds, but outside of his backer and manager, Jack Dougherty, and a few very close friends, none could be found me would venture a bet on his going the mit. From the beginning of the bout McPart- land was kept on the defensive, and he held it all through. Lavigne seemed puz- zled at times at McPartland's clever dodg- ing and ducking, and as he afterward ex- claimed, “Mac's a clever one, but he’s so awkward that it is hard to get to him.” In the early part of the bout it looked as if McPartland would surely go under. But several times during the fight he pulled himself together and landed his clever left inconveniently for Lavigne on that worthy’s head, neck end jaw. Lavigne did most of the fighting, however, and Referee Dick decision in his favor was received 000 spectators as a good one. Prospects of the Bostons, A special from Boston to the New York Sun says, refarding the make-up and pros- pects of the nine representing that ci The Boston Base Ball Club has twenty players on the reserve list. Dolan, Slagel and McGann are booked for release. Char- ley Ganzel will receive his contract as usual, as President Soden is not satisfied to let him go until he is sure of the other cate! ers. “‘Ganzel is too good a man to release. said the magnate, “and if New York wants him as badly as they say they can buy his release.” When asked what chances Boston had for the pennant next year, the Boston magnate said yesterday: “With just one first-class catcher, a man who would go in and keep the team on the jump, I think our chances are excellent. If Bergen turns out this season as we have every reason to hope he will, we shall need no better man. We have taken this catcher to a celebrated ician, and he has pronounced him in ‘St-class condition.” To Fight Dick Collier. ‘O, Ont., February 9.—Articles have een signed for a twenty-round fight February 27 between Jack Crawford of this city and Dick Collier, the champion middleweight of England, who has been touring the country with Jem Mace’s par: The men will fight at 168 pounds.

TORO: To Coach Columbia. At a special meeting of the Columbia Uni- versity Athletic Union, last night in New York, Justus H. Cowles was chosen to act as coach for the college boat crew. Mr. Cowles was a graduate from Columbia in the class of 8%, and during his college days was a noted oarsman. May Row at Henley. At a recent meeting of the Harlem Boat Club the question was brought up as to consider the advisability of entering the champion double scullers, F. Hawkins and J. E. Nagle, in the Henley regatta. The club proposes to have entries in all the prominent regattas of the current year, for whiche several members are now in training. et GAME AND FISH. First Meeting of the Executive Com- mittee of the New Association. The first meeting of the executive com- mittee of the recently organized Game and Fish Protective Association of the District of Columbia was held yesterday afternoon at the office of Dr. W. P. Young, 1333 F street, the secretary and treasurer of the organization. The president of the asso- ciation, Commander Robley D. Evans of the navy, occupied the chair. The mem- bers present were Vice President James F. Hood, Dr. W. P. Young, Mr. James M. Green, Dr. Walter S. Harban, Mr. Rudoiph Kauffmann, Mr. Joseph H. Hunter, Mr. George L. Nicholson, general manager of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal; Mr. Rich- ard Sylvester, Mr. Cluskey Cromwell, Mr. Charles D. Laird and Mr. F. B. McGuire. Dr. Young submitted the names of sev- enty-two applicants who desired to become members of the association. After Presi- dent Evans had appointed a committee, consisting of Dr. Harban and Mr. McGuire, to confer upon the names, and upon the favorable report of that committee on the entire number, the applicants were ad- mitted. As the membership of the asso- ciation stood at 106 before this action was taken, the entire membership is now 178, and it is expected that it will reach 500 by March,1. The secretary’s report showed that there was $170 in the treasury. A letter was read from Judge T. J. Hu- gus of Wheeling, W. Va., offering all the assistance in his power to aid in passing through the West Virginia legislature the bill already enacted by the Virginia and Maryland legislatures providing for the protection of the Potomac river bass. The necessity for securing this legislation was discussed, and it was decided to take im- mediate steps to carry out the plans of the association in this regard. A committee, consisting of Dr. Harban, Mr. Richard Syl- vester and Mr. Cluskey Cromwell, was also appointed to take charge of the task of securing the passage of a bill through the present Congress providing for the pro- tection of game and fish in the District of Columbia. ———.__. Case of Lieut. Owen. It is expected that the action of the Presi- dent in the case of Lieut. Frank Owen, 14th Infantry, will be announced in a few days. ‘This is a case of long standing. The officer was court-martialed for duplicating his pay accounts, and was sentenced to dismissal. The case was submitted to the President for his action several months ago, and the friends of the officer have been active in their efforts in his behalf. Although the President is usually indisposel to leniency in cases involving financial delinquency, the impression prevatls in the War Depart- ment that there are certain extenuating circumstances attending Lieut. Owen's offense, that will impel tho President to mitigate the sentence competitive examination. He has had the rank of first lieutenant since March 1894. eo Death of Naval Cadet Walker.
