6 THE FACTORY OILERS. —— + Situation of the Operatives and Employ- ers in Rhode Island. | BOTH SIDES RESOLVED. No Present Prospect of a Compromise—The | Strikers Forego Their Parade, Provipecr, R. 1., Jan. 18, 2876, ‘The meeting of operatives at Barry Hall, shis morn- ‘ng, was one of the largest that has been held, The Interest in the grand procession t0 Ashton and the re- sult were sufficient to collect everybody concerned in the strike, The meeting was called to order by the chairman, J. S. Lewis, who gave the strikers some sound advice. He said the time had come when every one should meet the qaestion fairly for him or herself. You must think it over calmly and decide according to your own judgment, He called attention to the great depression in business circles, nat only here but elso- where, and to the fack that last week the cloth of the Lonsdale Company sold at a lower price than ever be- fore, If they believed it best to continue the strike, do #0; if, onthe contrary, they considered it best for their own interests to return to work, they chould do so at ‘once. THE PARADE ABANDONED. Upon the question of the parade to Ashton coming =p Mr. Lewis stated that it was impossible for them ‘to go to Ashton unless they went on the railroad, with- Out travelling over roads that were private property; in ether words, “without trespassing,” which would render them al) liable to arrest—a thing they should Speciatly avoid, as it would injure them, It was then noticed that but few if any of the Providence police were in the hall, and a suggestion was made that per- haps they were all at Ashton ready to receive the strikers, when it was voted to forego the pleasure of the parade, and the village of Ashton was nofviwited, The private grounds referred to belong to their employers. The chairman again addressed the meeting, urging ‘those whose hearts were in the cause to come forward and speak for themselves, and censuring those who talked so loudly on the street and were silent in the hall. It was voted to choose a committee representing the different departments to visit the officers of the Lonsdale Company, convey to them their decision on the letter from the company last week, as the company had not yet been officially informed of their action thereon, and to see if the company would not come to terms and accede to their request for a return to the old rates of pay, After the committee was appointed a motion was made that they take no steps in the matter until to-morrow. One ot the committee made a few remarks, urging the strikers to bebave like men and women. They should transact their buginess like men and women ; they should act like Christians, would get their ten per cent and ‘no surren: UNSATISFACTORY ViSiT TO THE EMPLOYE: The committee proceeded to the office of the No. 4 mill and found Mr. Pratt, who, however, informed them, as they were a committee from all the milis, he could not receive them officially, and they proceeded to the old mills to see Mr. Kilburn. They found this gen- tieman, but what the result of the conference was the members of the committee do net “feel: authorized to State until the meeting to-morrew.’”? This much is Bure, however—they got no satisfaction, except the satisfaction of knowing that the company stands firm. Matter: the mills remain about the same. The bell ringe at the usual hours, inviting all who wish to come in and go to work, and’so the matter stands to- night By some it is thought the operatives will return to their work at the latter part of the present week. Ip conversation with @ score or more of them, however, we are led to a dif. ferent conclusion. They say they will not fo to work until « compromise is affected of some sort or other, So great was the demand for the HeraLp of yesterday, containing the report of the strike, that an enterprising young inan has engaged a weekly paper here to pablish a supplemént to-morrow for the pur- pose of reproducing it for the benefit of the operatives, STATEMENT OF THE AGENT OF BROWN & IVES, Mr. Witliam Goddard, of Goddard Brothers, agents for the house of Brown & Ives, was called upon to-day by the Hgnatp correspondent, at the office on South in street, where for upward of half a centary the house which he represents has transacted its extensive business He was glad to sce the Henap representa tive and willingly commanicated all the facts in his pos- session in relation to the unfortunate strike affecting she Lonsdale Manufacturing Company. He liked the done of the Hxnatp editorial yesterday, but be could not see how the matter could be settled by artutration. They had no contract with the help, They could seek work elsewhere if not satisfied with the terms offered. Every man hada right to sel! his labor, ana they were not so ignorant as to think that they could not go elsewhere. The owners were com- petent to run thetr mills, and when they could not they would shut them up. They took a great interest in their help, which accounted for their intelligence, They bought cattle in large numbers and after bringin; them here on their own farms killed them and furnish meat at reduced prices to all their operatives. They were compelled to make a reduction or else stop altogether, and it was for the good of their help that they wished to keep on running. It was natural that ople should look at it as the operatives did. ‘hey were not to blame for it, They were ignorant of the state of the market. He had been at the head of the concern tor twenty years and he never knew a strike to succeed and he did not believe this one would, ‘The firm could rot be swayed by the passion of their help. He was willing thai the help should go to wark and the mills would be kept open a reasonable length of time. It was, however, better to closo and the help could be governed by their own convictions, whether they would come to work or not. There was no debate on the question of wages. They were PAYING HIGHER RATKS for the same claas of goods than was any other concern im the country.

A committee of two from each department tn the mills was chosem to wait upon the superintendent and to report to-morrow, They desire to compromise the matter. They were determined to hold out to the bitter end. ‘Phey stated. that the best weavers eould earn bat $7 a week, and that on account of the company not owning any boarding house, young men who were earning but $25 per month were obliged to pay $20 of it for board, Spool tenders could earn but $5 per week, and they substantiated everything that Mr. Drown had stated in relation to the high price of tenements. Ashton & Berkely were visited and the help were found to be generally at work. OPINIONS OF COMMISSION MERCHANTS. 1s connection with the Lonsdale strikes, a reporter of the Hxnaxp called yesterday at the establishment of Messrs, Wooaward, Lawrence & Co., No. 314 Broadway, who are extensive commission merchants in the fabrics which are manufactured in that part of Rhode Island where the operatives have struck. The two members of the firm evinced a good deal of Teluctance to talk about che strike, claiming that, ag their business is that simply of commission merchants, they are not m 4 position to be able to judge of the question between the manufacturers and the operatives. Mr. Lawrence said, in substance, that at present the manufacturers are losing money on the capital invested. He said that at this time cotton can be purchased at nearly ante bellum rates; but that operatives’ wages and everything else is ro higher in price than before the war, While this @ condition of the staple and the labor market, prices for the lines of goods manufactured at Lonsdale are considerably lower now than at any tiwe previous to the war; hence it follows that gentlemen who have large sums embarked in the Rhode “Island factories © constantly losing money on their enterprises, which ought to net them a round sum and benefit the country atthe same tima In addition to this, Mr. Lawrence states that just now there are heavy stocks of manufactured goods in the market, so that sales are not brisk and quotations range low. He, therefore, ustified’ in trying to obtain labor at cheaper rates in order to enable them. if possible, to keep their mulls going, and thus be prepared to feed the market gradually and better their own business prospects. STRIKE OF THE COOPERS. The proprietors of the immense cooperage in the old abattoir building at Commanipaw, Jersey City, have reduced the wages of the coopers to so low a figure that the men struck yesterday. They assert that under the propysed rate the average would not exceed sixty cents a day. BUSINESS TROUBLES. The firm of Kirchner & O'Neill, carpenters, at No. 430 East Tenth street, has gone into bankruptcy, with lia- bilities amounting to over $50,000 and nominal assets about $30,000. Among the largest creditors are J. Benchell, $12,500; A. B, Woodruff & Co., $7,167; Rich- ard Shapter, $4,238; Eleventh Ward Bank, $3,700; J. J. Burchell, $2,000; B. L.

The assets consist of real estate estimated at. $18,500 and cash in the hands of Mr, J, Kelly, as assignee, Messrs, Kiersted & Smifth, sash .mannfacturers, at No, 718 East Ninth street, and No, 176 Bast 116th street, have been thrown into bankruptcy on the peti- tion of three of their creditors—T, A. Davis, William Harrington and N. L. Burdick, to whom the firm owes about $2,700, Graves & Pier, smiths, at No, 276 Water street, have gone into bankruptcy.’ Their liabilities amount to about $8,000 and their assets $1,800. The principal creditors are Willets & Co, $4,434; Sylvester Pier & Eh Hughes, $2,587. A moeting of the creditors of Solomon L. Simpson & Co., importers and wholesale dealers in wines and liquors, at No. 39 South William street, was held yes- terday at the office of the firm. About forty of the creditors were present and expressed much sympathy for the firm’s misfortunes. Mr. Frederick Lewis, the assignee, read a statement showing the assets’ and abilities in detail. The habilities are about $66,000, the nominal assets $140,000 and the actual assets $19,000. The heavy losses of the firm were explained to the satisfaction of the creditors, and the offer sub- mitted by the firm to pay twenty-five cents on the dollar was promptly accepted, Ata meeting of creditors of Archibald Baxter & Co, held atthe office of Abbott Bros, No. 71 Broadway, yesterday, it was recommended that the estate, which is now in bankruptcy, be administered by a trastee and & committee of creditors, and the following nominations were made and approved:—For Trustee, Charles M, Vail, of the firm of John S. Martin & Co, ; for commit- tee—Kugene Kelly, Henry W. Smith and ‘Samuel Free- man, George D. Munroe, a member of the Stock Board, doing business at No, 68 Broadway, being unable to meet his contracts, was sold oat under the rule in the Exchange yesterday. He was understood to be short of Lake Shore and long of Pacific Mail. An effort to make good the losses of his customers caused Mr. Munroe’s embarrassment. Amount of deficiency not ascertained. Mark Bloomingdale, stockbroker, No. 14 New street, algo fatled yesterday. Assignments were filed in the County Clerk’s office yesterday by Asabel Lewis to Cicero Campbell and by Jobn J. Johnston to John J, Adams. A meeting of the creditors of Alexander Stein, the furniture dealer of No. 102 Attorney street, who failed in the early part of December last, was held yesterday afternoon at the office of Registrar Fitch, No. 345 Broad- way. The liabilities of Mr. Stein were stated to be $48,000, while bis assets are nearly $39,000 The proposition of the bankrupt to pay twenty-five percent ‘mn six, nine, twelve and fifteen months was not accepted, and the meeting adjourned, the majority of those present giving Mr. Peter M. Dinger a power of aftorney to represent them at a future meeting. DUNCAN, SHERMAN & ©O. In the suit of certain creditors, including the United States of Mexico, the Fourth and Chatham National Banks and John Townshend against Messrs, Duncan, Sherman & Co., notice has been served upon de- fendants’ counsel that an application will be made be- fore Judge Blatchford, in the United States District Court, on the 22d inst, for certain relief as follows:— ‘That the petitioners who have commenced creditors’ suits have immediate leave to prosecute the same, subject to the order of she Bankruptcy Ooart, as to the distribution of any roceeds recovered in such suits during the pendency of * yankraptey proceedings, and without prefudice to their right aiford to for mang.

By a decreo of the Court, as soon as the operatives cease to work for the company, they are sufferances at will and can be ordered out, but they did not propose to do 60 at present, but their was a limit to their forbearance. He concinded by stating that the whole trouble was caused Dy a few, and that the strike would be of but short | duration. He was firm in his determination a: would not recede from the cut dowa of tion in reference to the dard stated that the most singular part that place was that they were paying there than is paid anywhere else by far ip the State, The mills at that place were shut more down, The spinners were the first to leave off work and on their account the entire force was thrown out of employment, and though comprising but armall number of the mill hands, yet the mill could ‘bot de run without spinners from somewhere, and ac- cordingly at the urgent request of the other empioyés, he had instructed the superintendent to start up as soon as be had secured spinners enough to do #0. The strike in Blackstone and elsewhere was all caused by and through the influence of the Lonsdale strikers, MILL AGENT VISITED, ANOTHER The Albion Mills were visited, and the J. stated that there were two mills, one in Moodus, Coun., and the other in Albion. The former had been abut up for some time for tho reason that no money could be made The one at Albion eontamed 600 looms and manufactured print cloths Notice was given the help two weeks oO of a reduction of ten per cent to take open a They haa been paying twenty-four gents per cut for the same kind of goods for which the Fall River mills pay twenty-one cen and the pro- Price was to be the same as that paid tn Fall iver, and even at that his mill was losing money.

He had travelled a great deal and spoke by ‘the card, THE STRIKE AT PAWTUCKET. The mills of the Slater Manufacturing Company, In Pawtucket, were visited this afternoon, and the agent, | ¥. 3.

Ship- man wero not regularly executed, and that they were made with intent to ‘delay, defraud or hinder” the creditors of the suspended firm. CUTTING DOWN POLICE SALARIES. The following is the proposed schedule of the reduo- tion of salaries of the Police Department of Jersey City, which will be discussed at the next meeting of the Commissioners :—Captains, $1,300, instead of $1,500 F year, saving $1,000; to sergeants, twenty in num- jong $960, instead of $1,100, saving $4,800; roundsmen and patrolmen, 128 in number, instead of $1,000, saving $25,600; detectives, three in number, $960, instead of @$1,100, saving $420; keeper of night soil sow, thstead of $720, saving $120; teleg ph operator, $700, instead of $900, saving $200; doormen, four !n number, $700, instead of $900, saving $800, Total saving, $30,940. SEVENTH REGIMENT ARMORY, Mr. Royal Phelps has been the first to answer the ap- peal of the Board of Officers of the Seventh regiment for atd to build an armory. He yesterday sent a check for $500 te Colonel Clark, accompanying the paper with & culogy of “the gallant Seventh.” REAL ESTATE SALES. But few were in attendance yesterday at the Ex- change, and the bidding was very light, B. A. Lawrence & Co. sold, in foreclosure, the house and lot, 21 by 100.11, on Rast 112th street, south side, avenue, to Pedro Montell, for $5,000, said property being valued at $8,000. 4 lames M.

The challenge from the Intercollegiate Regatta Com- mittee to the Dublin University crew has been received and declined, And yet one might also say that it has not been received nor declined. But as 1t ts quite cer- tain that, when certam formalities shall have been complied with, the challenge will finally not be cepted, one may at once acquiesce, however regret fully, in the frst statement. THE CASK 48 IT PRESENTS. There are two rowing Organizations in connection with the members of the Dublin University—one of very recent date, the other older only by some years, Rowing, like cricket, is of comparatively modern ex- istence in Ireiand. Both, however, are now cultivated con amore, especially the former, and more than one distinguished victory has been won on the water by members of Irish boating clubs. About thirty-five years ago there was here in Dublin « Pem- broke Rowing Club, which had grown out of a pre viously existing Dublin Rowing Club As all the mem- bers of the Pembroke were university men, tt was, at the datejust mentioned, agreed to change the name to the Dublin University Rowing Club, and while the num- ber of members—all of whom must be members of the university, past or present—was to be unlimited, associates might also be admitted to the number of forty. Members and associates were practically on the same footing till, about three years ago, a rule was adopted debarring associates from forming part of club crews at regattas, &c, PRACTICE, RULE AND RELIGIOUS DISBARMENT, But the same potent solvent which has disturbed larger and more important communities was to be ap- phed to the Rowing Club, There was no rule, but there was an established practice that Roman Catholics should not be admitted. Several times attempts were made by more liberal minded men to introduce Roman Catholics, but what was misnamed ‘conservative’ tra- ditions were too strong for them. Meantime the tone of Trmity College itself had been gradually relaxing from its old hard and Es- tablished Church Protestanism, Both Roman Cath- olics and Dissenters had taken the highest honors at graduation, and it was felt to be an anomaly that they should be excladed from a mere secial union like a row- ing club, Buta majority of the older members were stanch to the ‘‘ascendancy’”? amd ‘‘true bluc’’ opin- jons, and 60 many of the LIBERAL MEMBERS SBCEDED, among them the Rev. Mr. Lesiie, an Episcopalian cler- yman, a Fellow of Trinity College and one of the pro- Fiance’ to, the sahoctot Engineering. The seceders formed a new club, named the * DUBLIN UNIVERSITY BOAT CLUB, These admit no associates; the members must de members of the University of Dublin, But there is no test of religious orthodoxy by which a man’s rowing skill 18 to be decaded; men of any religion, or of none, are equally eligible if otherwise desirable. The two clubs are keen antagonists. No coptests at the Dublin Metropolitan Regatta are more stubbornly contested than those between the crews of the rival organiza- tions. Of course, young men who are members of the same university—perbaps of the same class—will not carry professional animosity into private life, but it is well understood here that the divergent paths which lead the chiets of the two clubs g0 fur apart are not likely ever to lead them to a coalition, THE CHALLENGE was, I believe, addressed to Trinity College, and when the postman going his rounds within the college build- ings inquired for the official personage to whom it was addressed, many referred him to Mr. Leslie (who 1s actually vice president of the Boat Club) as the proper recipient of the letter, At all events, Mr. Leslie re- ceived the document, and duly read it at a meeting of the committee of the University Boat Club, held at their boathouse in Ringsend, near Dublin, FIXED ENGAGEMENTS. Their youthful ambition was sorely tempted, but Mr. Leslie, acting the part of mentor, recalled them to their fixed engagements, which cannot at any sacri- fice be neglected. There is the Dublin Metropolitan Regatta, where crews from all parts of Ireland gather, and among them their rivals of the hapa § Club, There 1s Henley-on-Thames, a celebrated English Togatta, FIRST VICTORIES. ‘The Boat Club suddenly ,leaped into celebrity in the second yoar of 1ts existence by its men winning a race from an Oxford crow. They followed it up by repeat- ing their success the next year. They could not retire from that scene. ‘WHY THEY DECLINED. Now, all those regattas take place in June and abou July, not far from the date of the intercollegiate con- tes,’ So the committee resolved, regretfully, to de- cline the challenge, stating candidly the reasons, which left them no choice, THR ROWING CLUB. So much for the Boat Club. Now what about the Rowing Club? As a fact, they have not had the chal- lenge communicated to them. Their captain, Mr. A. Bushe, Jr, who has filled that position for fifteen years, knew nothing of it except a meagre paragraph Which appeared in the Dublin newspapers. Of course, the explanation of this is that the challenge came into Mr. Leslie's bands; and it marks the rivalry between the two organizations that this gentleman did not feel bound to communicate it to the chief of his antagon- ists, Not that it would have made any difference as to | the result, No meeting of the Rowing Club committee will be held before the 19th January. Yet Mr. Bushe should they then have the challenge before them, THEY WILL DECLINE IT. They have the game engagements to interfere with their going to America as the Boat Club, But the cap- tain of the rowing club, who 1s person, does not conceal that there are other weighty | reasons also against accepting. There is the expenst ofthe journey to and from America. If nothing el: was known of Americans but what experience taught 1m the case of the Irish rifle team in the autumn of 1874 that was more than sufficient to make American hos- pitality an axiom, So that element is to be quite laid ‘out of view as one too well known to need explanation. HARD MONEY PACTS. Still there is the journey and the carriage of boats, &c. Now, most of the practical members ot the club, the class from which a crew should be taken, are young men, students, making their way to the professions. Young Irishmen of this position are seldom overbur- dened with money. Superfluity with them is a rarer acquaintance than in England. Besides, most of them will be looking forward to examinations, which are the gates of their professions, to be passed immediately business is resumed tn October. such a sacrifice of time, Partem solido demere de die, as would ge involved in the journey to America and rowing there. NO REPRESENTATIV®, It may, then, be taken for granted that neither club | will be represented on tho occasion of the inter- collegiate contest, Some iovers of aquatics, however, | are working hard to get up a | “SCRATCH” CREW, to be composed of members of both clubs who will vol- unteer for the purpose, But ‘here two difficulties pro- | sent themselves, The clubs will not be pleased if any the Henley and Dublin Metropolitan events. Now, they are likely to be missing if they go either to the intercollegiate in July or to Philadelphia in June. On the other band, it is not always that skill and ability go band in hand with money, and this is true no less in boating than in other matters. The men whose kK: ets can best afford the expense of a trip to New York ‘are not necessarily the men who will do the Irish name most credit on American wate: And so the only safe conclusion ia, that whatever crew or crews may pre- sent themselves will not be authorized to represent any Irish organization, but only—their noble selves. SPORTING EVENTS ABROAD. The Prix du Jockey Club (French Derby) will thia year be run on May 23. Dalkam, a brown horse, by Cathedral, dam Gertrude, the property of T. Smith, was sold at Tattersall’s on the 8d inst. for 1,000 guineas to Mr. R. Peck. At the same time and plave Mr. Lee purchased of Mr. Blenk- fron a bay filly, by Rosicrucian, dam Bas Bleu, for 820 guineas; and John Noightingall bought a chest- nut filly by Parmesan, dam Hill, of Mr. Bienkiron, for 800 guineas; Nightingall also urchased’ the bay filly, by Parmesan, dam Ea of the Forest, from the same gentleman | for guineas.

The London Standard of the 6th inst. says of the betting at Tattersall’s:—*‘The inquiries after Petrarch for the Two Thousand were s0'frequent that 900 to 400 bad to be taken, and for the Derby 700 to 100 was noted.” The says:—‘'The American bred horses trained by Littledeid at Newmarket are a better look- ing Jot than most peop! sag and one or two of | them will be seen outat the Newmarket Craven Moet | | | ing.

PROGRESS OF THE AMERICAN HORSES—A VISIT TO NEWMARKET—FAVORABLE OPINION OF THE BEST JUDGES—A MEMBER OF THE JOCKEY | CLUB CHALLENGED TO FIGHT A DUEL. Lowpon, Jan. 3, 1876. | On behalf of the New Yoru Henao I last week paid | 8 visit © Newmarket, where trainers are just now very | busy getting their young horses forward with the view of entering them for the races that close this week. So far as can at present be judged the forthcoming season promises to be a very brilliant one. In nearly every instance the entries that have already been published show a marked increase on those of the preceding year, and the Grand Prix de Paris has obtained an amount of success that has never been equalled. This great race receives only lukewarn support from the betttr class of Knglish sportsmen, Lord Falmouth, who may be considered at the head of the English turf, will not countenance it in any way, and other noblemen and gentlemen follow his lead. The reason of this is thay the race is runon Sunday. At one of the recent elec- tions a member of Parliament, who had represented a borough for a great number of years, lost his seat be- cause his pame had been given in the newspapers as one ofthe company present on the Longchamps on the Grand Prix day. Before paying a visit to Mr. Sanford’s horses I was desirous of hearing what were the opinions concerning them of tho more celebrated of the English trainers, Among the know-nothings in London they are spoken rather lightly of, and, that being the case, I imagined that ata place like Newmarket, where the critics are very severe, I should not bear much in their praise. I was mistaken. I, in the first place, sent in my card to Mr. Matthew Dawson, who is at the head of the most famous training establishment io the world. It is called Hoath House, and from it last season were turned out horses who won in stakes alone the enor- mous total of $250,000. No lover of horses should leave England without seemg this magnificent, training stable, as it is pattern one. The trainer js one of the most hospitable men breathing, and no matter whether it is a king or the most humble member of society who visits the stables, he is not allowed to depart without paying a visit to the sanctum, which is hung round with pictures of many ofthe most famous cracks of equine history, and there imbibing some of that whiskey for which Heath House is famous. The Prince of Wales, Lord and Lady Aylesford, the Duchess of Manchester, Mr, Chaplin, Sir Fred, Johnstone and Lady Charles Ker almost made the stabies their home when they were at Newmarket during what is known as the July week, Mr. Dawson received me most cordially and invited me to “stables” at seven o'clock. I was struck with the neatness and splendid order that everywhere pre- vailed. The boys are not allowed to use a rough word to their horses, and it is a crime to touch one of them with astick. I preferred not to let Mr. Dawson know that I had any interest in any particular team, and, in a conversation I had in the sanctum alluded to above, I casually remarked, “I suppose these Americans down here are not up to much?” ‘Before you say that,’ replied Mr, Dawson, to my surprise, ‘you had better go round and see them. I had Mr. Littlefield in my parlor here tho other night; you will find him a quiet, unassuming man, fully up to his business, and I have no doubt that he will be glad to see you.” ‘What is your opinion of his horses?” 1 asked. “Well,” he said, “Preakness is my old horse Julius over again, and there have not been many better than him. There isa yearling: in particular that I wish you would take notice of, 1 consider it as good looking as anything there is at Newmarket, and some of mine, you know, Dave cost nearly 2,000 guineus.” On informing Mr, Dawson of my connection with the New York HERALD, he expressed his surprise at the enterprise of a paper that, in such a matter as the wreck of the Deutschland, should have been so far ahead of the English, How the chart of the mouth of the Thames and the Essex coast was produced at sach a short notice be could not understand. The following morning I was outon the heath, and had not been there long when Mr. Dawson joined me and after a short time pointed out to me a middle aged man riding a gray pony. ‘That Is Mr, Littlefield, and that horse you see striding along there,”’ pointing to a strong, old fashioned looking customer, ‘4s Preakness, He does not look tiring, does he?’ I thought not, and crossed over to the gray pony and addressed its rider. ‘Mr. Littlefield, I believe?” “Yea, sir.” “Al low me to introduce bis tome as a correspondent of the New York Henavp, ill you allow me to come te ‘stables’ to-night?” ‘With pleasure, but you must come early, say about four o'clock, as I am not so late as the trainers here,” I found Mr. Littlefield ensconced in a roomy old fash- joned house that had been occupied by another Ameri- can trainer, Mr, Pryor, when he had ron Schickler’s horses. Boyce also trained here for Lord Falmou' Scott’s to Newmarket The stabling is very complete and comfortable, When Preakness was led out he seemed as fresh as a two-year-old, and was uncommonly playtl 1 was surprised to see, after what I had beard in Lon- don, what a good looking horse he was. The American artists in the illustrated papers have not done him jus- tice. He appearsto me to be exactly the kind of horse the scarcity of which in England has led to so much controversy. He is altogether better about the legs and feet than the English, and there is plenty of weight carrying power about him. He is on a more werful scale than his younger brother, Bay Final, ‘he three-year-old engaged in the forthcoming Derby has bad an attack of influenza that will keep him back a bit, but it 18 not serious. The big yearling (now two years old) that Mr. Dawson told me to be on the look- out for is really « magnificent specimen of horse flesh. He is by Lexington. Hois on too large a scale to be seen to great advantage next season, and in order to give him every chance he will not run in public until late next October, when he will try his luck in the Dewhurst Plate, a two-year-old race of great value, run over a longer distance than the average of such races This prize was last season worth about $10,000, and was won by the Minera: colt, who is | now a favorite for the Derby. There were two two- year-old fillies, also very racing like, one by Glenelg especially pleasing me. The whole lot looked in re- markable condition, and only one bore the least signs of having just come off a long and rough voyage. This ‘was one of the young fillies, who bas grazed a good deal of hair off her side. “And what sort of a bet oo ge have you met with in England, Mr. Littlefield?” I asked, as we adjourned to his back parlor to talk over the plan of campaign. ‘Nothing cou'd have been more hearty; everybody seems to wish us well. When we came Mr. Sanford wished to engage some training ground at Lewes, but I am glad that we are here; this heath is really veautiful. Horses ought to be kept on their legs here for ever.” ‘As your horses evidenuly require time, I suppose that you will not be very early in the field?” ‘Well, | hope to bave one or two ready for the Craven (the second week in April). I want to have a gallop as soon as possible, so that I may know what] am about, Mr. Sanford will not hear of running a private trial, and the wateh | < me no clew in this country.” “Per- aps it would be as well to try for speed at first,” I hazarded; “you know that your horses can si “That is what I mean doing,” said Mr. Little- field, ‘‘and my first go will be in the Bretby Plate, a six furlong handicap.” “But how is Admiral Rous to | handicap your horses, not knowing anything about them; won't ho give them a heavy weight? tbat is his | theory, you know,” ‘Well, I have been thinking of that; bat I fuppose I must take my chance The Admiral 1s usually generous to visitors’ “Of course, you have ‘gone in’ for the Ascot Cup and Alexandra ate?” and then Mr. Litslefield seemed to chuckle a little. **Yes,’? he said, ‘that three mile course, with heavy weights and an allowance of seven pounds, will just about suit old Preakness.’ This is the Alexandra Hate, to which $5,000 is added by the Race Committee. For the Gold Cup—two miles and a half—Aamerican. horses are not allowed anything. Thanking Mr. Littie- Fes for the feasieie Ti bed oe me and wishing im every prosperity I withdrew. The test for speed, I should say, will be made with Mate. In one sense the visit of Mr. Sanford’s horses to England has been well timed. If it is true that Galopin has retired there is pota ag Fp | distance ro ner loft, as Spinaway, who did so weil by has already been put to the stud Galopin will never a carry Prince ny’s colors. Should, how ho change hands we may see him at Ascot.

Captain Paul Boyton will give an exhibition to-mor- row afternoon at three o'clock at the Cunard wharves, Jersey City, for the benefit of the hospitals of Hadson county. The programme consists of diferent methods JERSEY’S CORRUPT OFFICIALS, A trial was opened in the Court of Quarter Sessions at Jersey City yesterday which excited great public in- terest from its relation to the celebrated malfeasance trials four years ago. The facts in brief are these:— Joseph Autenreith had the contract of removing dead animals from the city. When the term expired he ap- plied to the Police Commissioners for a renewal, and ‘Was advised to call on acertain man who was in the confidence of the Commissioners. He did so, and this inan informed him that the Commissioners were ready to act when he should ‘come down.” Au- tenreith consented to bid for the work at $1,500, of which the negotiator couid retain $300 for division among, the Commissioners. Soon afterwards a proposal was presented in Auten- reith's name without his consent to the Commis- sioners, offermg to do the work for $1,800. Auten- reith gave $100 to the negotiator, to be given to Commissioner Edmondson, and received assurance afterward that it was wa a From July to Novem- ber he gave $400 altogether, to be given to the Com- missioners, — Autenreith saw the tiator give Edmondson $200, The negotiator ordered a $65 suit of clothes for George Warrin, clerk to the Commissioners. The bill was sent to Autenreith, who paid it The con- tract was awarded to him and he gave a champagne supper, to which he invited the Commissioners. None came but Edmondson, Through some alleged infor. mality in the advertising for proposals Autenreith was cheated out of the contract, The negotiator informed him that by paying $100 to a certain commissioner he could stili have the contract, but he and it was awarded finally to a man named Winn, on condition that he should sell out to a New York firm for $500, These charges were sworn to and published, and Ed- mondson had Autenreith indicted for libel. ‘The case for the prosecution was brief and the defence was ts bain Counsel said that the truth of the entire el "8 would be established. THE PATERSON OFFICIALS’ TRIAL, The trial of ex-Tax Commissioner James Hand and Edward Eakins, his clerk, for alleged conspiracy to de- fraud thecity in changing the assessment books, was resumed in the Paterson court yesterday, and the testi- mony all closed. The defence was to the effect that Eakins in making the changes had only officiated ag Hand’s amanuensis and knew nothing of anything wrong or any attempt to defraud the city, rpg tal itcould not be a conspiracy. Eakins testified himself to this effect, acknowledging that he had changed the books and made erasures by Hand’s directions, but denying any knowledge of any attempt to defraud the city or any one else. The indict. ment upon which they are pow being tried being for conspiracy alone, it is thought that they will be acquitted, or at all events that they will not be proven guilty, Thesumming up was under way at the adjourn- ment of the court last night, and the case will probably go to the jury early this morning. Tax Commissioner Thomas Bromley, and William Eakins, late clerk to the Board of Assessors, wore yes- terday arraigned on indictments for malfeasance in office and accepting bribes for their influence in having taxes reduced. They pleaded not guilty and gave bail for their trial, which will take place as soon as the present cases are throt f CAPTURE OF A FUGITIVE. Last July a number of boys were playing base bal onthe Lossburg Common, in West Hoboken, N. J., when a quarrel arose between John Barrett and John Van Voort, which put an end to the game. The latter then left for his home, Barrett following him, when suddenly be stealthily approached behind Van Voort and struck him with all his force on the back of the head with a heavy base ball but Van Voort dropped as if dead and was taken home unconscious. He re- mained in this condition, between life and death, for a week, but subsequently recovered. The would-be murderer fled, and no one knew what had become of him. For several days past it’ was, however, rumored ‘that the fugitive came to his home in the dead of night, On Monday night Police Officer Kohl, watching the house, saw him enter, Yesterday morning he went again to the house, armed with a warrant, and arrested Barrett, who was committed to the County Jail ap de fault of bail. CHEEKY HORSE THIEVES. Five horse thieves, who gave their names at James | Sweeny, Peter Phelan, Andrew Dexter, John Titus and Thomas Dwyer, were brought before the Recorder of Bayonne, N. J., yesterday on the charge of attempting to steal a valuable horse belonging to William Martin, of Pam Mr. Martin caught them in the act oI ariving the animal toward Jersey City, and when he confronted them he was surrounded and compelled to retreat. He then sent messengers tor the police, and the gang was captured by a squad from the Greenville Station, They impudently demanded their dinner when. locked up, but it was refused, The men said they came from Jersey City, and were merely taking the horso to the pound. They were committed for trial. BROOKLYN RING SUITS.
