} : THE PIVOTAL STATE. The Wrangling Democracy and the Barriers That Divide Them. A DEMAND FOR HARMONY. What Is Thought of the Tilden and Anti- Tilden Fight in Albany. ¢ THE REPUBLICAN OUTLOOK. ALBaNny, March 2, 1879, The attention of the country, in a political sense, is now centred upon New York as ‘The Pivotal State” for 1880. The recent interviews with Con- gressmen, Senators and Assemblymen as to the lead- ing issues of the day, recently published in the HERALD, have established this fact beyond a doubt, Then the exhaustive and able analysis of political controversies in this section for the past fifty years, from the Henarp Washington correspondent, going “to establish the theory first proponnded from Al- bany that this State was really the pivot upon which our next Presidential election hinged, hus received the asgent of all prominent leaders with whom I con- versed here during the past week, THE DEMOCRATIC SITUATION, Republicans in Albany are particularly sanguine “Just now as to the success of their party next Novem- ber. Certain democrats do not feel quite so coufi- dent. Where assertions are made openly by demo- cratic leaders which are understood as likely to be printed, thus reaching public attention, much care is exercised. ‘They confidently boast of what is going to resuft at the polls, Secretly, however, many of these gentlemen express, considerable distrust as to what may happen to their party in cas@ present dis- sensions are not effectually healed up. ‘The Tilden- ites agd anti-Tildenites are as bitterly arrayed against each other just nowas when the Canal Ring fight raged with intensity during the winter of 1875. Then the wily statesman of Gramercy Park led his party in the name of aggressive reforin, the republican legislators were compelled to follow, fearing that their constituents might place them on the side of the canal thieves. . To-day that fight has calmed down to 4 quiet contemplation of the past. The in- dependent voters have not this canal reform flag flaunted before them. The Legislature is largely re- publican in both house’, while in 1875 we had a large democratic majority in the Assembly, Tilden having carried the State the year preyious by.a majority of over fifty thousand. Notwithstanding that the Canal Ring then had its active agents in the Senate and As- sembly Governor Tilden was able to crush out their opposition and carry all his points in the face of all impediments. The glumour of his apparently bril- lisnt onslaught against the men said to be engaged in robbing ihe State 'Ireagury so effectually blinded his political opponents in Albany that they were unable to raise an effectual hand against the successful on- ward march of his vigorous and crafty statesman- ship. But the scene has mightily changed since then. Mr. Tilden went before the country as a candidate for President. Every democrat in the land, and it may be a number of republicans, believe that he was fairly’ elected, but counted out by the returning boards of Florida aud Louisiana, ‘Phis is the main and great issue npon which Mr. Tilden and friends evidently rely as to the gentleman's renomination next year. The only grand impediment that stands in the way of this consumation is the result of the election iu New York State next fall, Should Lucius Robin- son be renominated for Governor by the democrats and defeated then “fr. Tilkion may positively be counted out of the next reve in the Presidential field. A defeat of that character would be looked upon in the same light as if the ex-Governor bad run himself, #@ 80 closely are Tilden and Robinson identified. THE UNCERTAINTY OF NEW YORK STATE. When the election figures of past years are ex- amined it can be easily seen how uncertain is the outluok in New York State at present. Dix (republi- can) was first elected Governor by about fifty thou- sand majority. Tn 1874, two years later, Tilden re- yersed there figures and was chosen successor to Dix by over fifty thousand majority. This was a most ro- narkable campaign aud astouixhed everybody. The reasons now given for such a grest victory are varied. Some say it was because of the foremost part which Vilden took in uneurthing the ring frauds, aithongh he had been working shoulder to shoulder with Tweed and company up to a short time be- fore the actual exposure of the gigantic schemes in whica these men had been actively en- gaged. Others trace the victory to " the apathy of certain republican leaders, headed by Mr. Conkling, who did not wish to see Governor Dix re- elected; that gentioman was striding too rapidly to the front and might interfere with ‘certain calcéula- tions as to the United States Senatorial successor- ship and the republican Presidential nomination in 1876, It was probably considered advisable to slaughter his ambitions ut the bud, so that he could not interfere with the hopes of certain gentlemen whose eyes wore turned toward the White Houee. ‘| Whatever may have been the reasons for this repub- licun coolness m the Dix canvass it has since peared quite clear that the republican machine dot at all unas it might have been in the interests of its gubernatorial candidate. Both reasons, as al- Jeged, go far to explain the tremendous vote which Batmuel J. ‘Tilden received as the @emocratic candi- date for Governor in 1871. But notwithstandin this elucidation of that controversy it. will he readily porceived that New York State has always proved yery uncertain in its political determina- tions. Nobody can now foreshadow with any degree ot certainty what the figures will show when the polls are closed on moxt election day. in 1876, © Presidential year, when both parties brought out al! their strength, the gubernatorial voto of the State stodu as follows Robinson (dem.) Morgan (rep. Robinson's majority...... W YORK cr From the above figures it will be seen that Robin- fon's majority was some twenty thousand less than that received by Tilden in 1874, The vote ot New oes city in 1876 was:— ‘ + 110,643 +» 8,605 Nobinson'’s majority. « 51,088 au here be easily ary hat had ft not been for the «pleudid majority given for the democratic State ticket in New York city Robinson must have been badly beaten, The republicans came to Harlem River with 20,000 majority. ,if it was possible to take a combination that year"the republicans would uidoubtedly have carried the State, Lins settling the Presidential ght beyoud the shadow of acontroversy, Such a combination might attract between 25,000 and 40,000 votes away from the democratic side, as has been conclusively proved again and again, where re- publicun aud gut Tammany forces joined’ hands in the metropolis. A similar combination defeated Dravcis Kernan for Governor. But it is argued that ho such combination can be entered into next tall. This conclusion is not at all so clear. The elements that oppose ‘Lilden in the metropolis—Tammany Hatl it particulur—cannot, of course, give open coun- tenanee to any stich alliance between democrats and republicaus, but there is a way of striking at Tilden’s nds when they are in the fleld almost as effectu- a4 if Tammany had really wnited on this issue h her republican foes, This ruse was plainly demoustrated in the eainpa: ot 1877, Then, it will be recollected, the anti-Lildenites captured the State Convention at Albany, shelving Apgar, Fairchild, Bigelow aud company, This was particularly a fight ot Tammany and otheg anti-Tildenites in the Stato against “Uncle Sammy,” who was at the time travel- ling in heed with his friend Bigelow. The Tilden gE naturally felt aggrieved at the concitsiofis of his Convention. They looked for revenge some- where, Lhe story goes that Apgar and some of his confederates ii mongrel ticket printed leaving off Bewoh and other anti-Lildenites and substituting therefor the Lames of independent candidates. ‘hoy calculated that it they could strike down Beach and other prime leaders in the anti-Tilden ranks thoy could aecomplirh # great deal.

For Attorney Gi: For State Engineer, Seymour....... ee UOGTUL lt will thus be seen that Beach, Muckin and Behoonmaker, a8 new ticket representatives, fell behind Ulcott and Seymour, known to be in harmony with the Yilden wing of the party, some 14,000 votes. ‘Lho anti-Tildenites assert that the falling off in the vote for these three gentlemen can alone be expiained by this treachery of placing & mongrel ticket before’ the democrats of the State in addition to the regular minces of the party. On the other hand, the ‘il- mites claim thet the reduction resulted trom an aroused public sentinieut ayainat said to be entered into by Tammany and the Canal Ring to deicat tho mon identified with the ox- Governor in his vigorous reform movements, TWO CAN PLAY AT THIS GAME. Wherever the clucidation of this mystery lies 0: NEW YORK HERALD, MONDAY, MARCH 3, 1879.-TRIPLE SHERT. patent—that, if the Tildenites played this game in bh there is 20 reason that their domoeratic enemies sheuld not follow suit in the same way in the campaign of 1879, The programme might be that, in case Mr. Tilden secures absolute control of the Siate Convention and insists upon the nomina- tion of a ticket absolutely in his own individual in- terests, then Tammuny Hall and other disaffected demoérats throughout the State could enter into a secret bargain io slaughter the Stato ticket at the polls in various election dis- tricts which they could control, It might not be impossible for certain of the leaders, too, on | fig side ot the house to secretly holy along @, com | bination in New York city between disaffected demo- erats and republicans 40 that a few thousand votes could be taken away from the Tilden State ticket by such adroit tactics. It is conceded that Mr, John Kelly would not lend himseif to any such scheme, a# he is understood to be too straightforward a poli- | tician and too honest a man to enter into disgraceful compacts of that character, but there are said to be certain gentlemen belonging to his organization, as well as others scattered through the State, who would be willing to go to any extremes in cutting the political throat of Samuel J, ‘Lilden, Besides, it is well understood that not alone the political, but the personal fortunes of those gentlemon depend ee entirely upon the fate of Mr, Tilden in 1879 | and 1830, “ WHAT 18 10 BE DONE? Taking all these impértant issues into considera- tion the question natugally arises, What is the best policy to be pursued by the democracy of thie State under the circumstances? Hesitation, doubt and indecision are predominant characteristics of the democratic leaders on both sides with°whom I have recently conversed in Albany. ‘hey want har- mony—insist that without it the party cannot suc- ceed next November—but theyre not at ull clear 2s to what i t to be done to bring about this nappy state of iva. If New York is really “The Pivotal State’? how nogessary is it that all these democratic dissensions should be brought to a speedy ena! The democracy of the country, taking this view of the discussion, look intently for a positive cementing of all dj*iculties. The actual situation to-day may be sumunarized as follows :— 1, Samuel J, Tilden is said to have control of the State machine, as,far as the Governor, Public Works and State Prion departments are concerned. 2. ‘The sanie gentleman will undoubtedly use those effectual clements of political power in sending dele- ates to the next State Convention in the interest. of fucius Robinson. , 3. Through Mayor Cooper, Ex-Comptroller Green and other #bie anti-lammany leadors in New York city, Mr. Tilden is able to menace Tammany Hull, and is now understood to be engaged in undermin- ing the present management of that formidable in- stitution. 4. Comptroller Kelly, in the city of New York, and Mr. Allen ©. Beuch, in the State, are foremost lenders in the anti-‘Tilden phalanx. They do not believe in Mr. Tilden either as a sate purty leader: or as a re- former. ‘They evidently think that it would be better for the democracy and the country if the |* gentiemen were to take absolutely a back seat in the |- discussion of public questions, 5. Those estimates of Pr. Tilden seem to be en- tirely concyrred in by such men as Lieutenant Gov- ernor Dorsheimer, Chict Justice Church, Amasa J. Parker, ex:Canal Commissioner Wright and other democrats of equal weight throughout the Stato. Now, the question again obtrudes itself, What is to be done in order to bring these gentlemen together in one grand feast of brotherly love? re A POLITICAL PANACEA. A shrewd pelitical leader here gives me a few hints in this connection. He suggests the nomination of a State ticket composed of one-hali Tilden and one- halt anti-‘Tilden men. He also remarks that the only prominent anti-Tiltenite State officer at present is Beach. ts bad us to Lieutenant Governor Dershcimer?” I Poti ° *That gentleman has been straddling the fence for some short time past. He will have to walk the plank, it will be remembered that he did not at- tend the last State Convention to aideithor the Tilden or Tammany side. Then, too, he made « fool of himself in coqueting with Justus Schwab, the Com- munist.” “What names would you suggest for the principal offices on the democratic side next fall 60 as to bring together all contending interests?” “Well, here is a list for consideration:—For Gov- ernor—Lucius Robinson, Tilden; DeWitt C. West, anti-Tilden; Horatio Seymour, neutral; Allen C, vach, anti-Tilden. For Secretary of State—Allen 0, Beach, anti-Tilden. For Treasurer—George C. Green, Niagara, anti-Tilden; Charles N. Ross, Auburn, pen- tral; James Faulkener, Livingston, Tilden. For Ate torney General—August Schoonmaker, Ulster, neu- tral; C. Frank Brown, Orange, neutral; ex-Judge Charles Wheaton, Dutchess, Tilden; William ©, Ruger, Syracuse, anti-‘Vilden; William Poncher, Os- weyo, anti-Tilden. For Comptroller—frederick P, Olcoit, Tilden. A combination of Tildenftes and auti-Tildenites taken trom this group would un- doubtedly sweep the State. “What is your real opinion as to the trouble be- tween Mr. Tilden and a lergehumber of the workers in his own party in this State 7” “Had the gentleman surrounded himself with men like those who aided hit in his nomination for Gov- ernor, instead of allowing the Peltons, Weeds and m that stripe to use him for selfish ends, then there would be no serious division in the demo- cratic party to-<lsy. As you well know, a divigson in the democratic ranks means a republican victory in the State of New York next tail.” REPUBLICAN DISSENSIONS, The republican party in the State have their seri- ous dissensions, but they are not by any means as difficult of soludon as those on the democratic sido, The “Old Guard,” it is true, headed by Speaker Al- vord, Generel Husted, rance Superintendent Smyth and others of that cluss of. politicians, gai un important victory in securing the organization of the Assembly. But this victory is not unlikely to turn to ashes in their bands, The “Old Guard” of the republican party is said to be in the yrasp of the corporations—their creatures and instruments, Whether the charge is true or false it is difficult to say, All the i ie here, however, point to the absolute truth @ tix assertion, and the masses of people in the State begin to be imbued with the same impression, The young legislative chiefs of the party—such men as George B. Sloan, A. 2 Hepburn, Hamilton Fish, James M. Varnum, Chi R. Skinner, F. 8. Mann and others—have, li organized ‘a brilliant campaign against the corpo- rationists and may upset this “Old Guard” in the olitical field before many weeks have passed. ir. Sloan is wise he can gallantly lead the advance in this laudable strife, with every prospect of a brilliant victory in the end. ST, STEPHEN'S COLLEGE TROUBLE, STATEMENT OF THE AFFAIR BY THE COLLEGE AUTHORITIES EMBODIED IN A LETTER To BISHOP POTTER. PovGHKerErstr, March 2, 1879, St. Stephen’s College at Annandale is almost en- tirely deserted at present, and the forced vacation because of the recent serious troubles among the students will not endguntil Saturday next. Now that a student of the Wickes party and K. W, Parkersen, of the Parkersen party, have given their version of the college troubles the wholo matter is properly put at rest by a statement of the college authorities, their views being embodied in a leticr to Bishop Potter by the Warden of the col- lege. In substance it represents to the Bishop that some six weeks ago permission was given a number of the students to yo on a sleighride to Rhinebeck. They went and had supper at the vil- lage and had wine on the table, but there was no drunkenness, Shortly after another party obtamed a like permission, and they aiso went to ihimebeck and had supper and had wine upon the table; but it was not such # temperate party of picasure seekers as was the first, and a carousal ensued, but the re- ports of it wore greatly exaggerated, some say- ing allawere drunk, when the fact was that three got very drunk, four were consider. ably intoxicated, and the balance, about eight in all, were sober. The student Wickes, of Fort Edward, was not of the party, but he wrote a letter to a graduate in New York telling him of the whole affair, with the avowed hope that the matter would reach the earsof the colloge authorities, and it did, but they were busy with an investigation before Wickes sent his letter, and when they heard of the latter Wickes was called betore them. He made a clean breast of the whole affair, acknowedged the sending of the letter and told the story of the sleigh- ride as he had heerd it from the lips of those who were on it. In this statement to the Warden in no way, shape or inapner did he refer to Parkersen, or intimate that the latter had anything to do with it; nor was Parkersen's name mentioned, nor was Par- kersen on the sleighride. PARKERSEN’S ACTION. Soon after Wickes’ mitorview with the Wardon fis Fesuli became known atnong the students, and then it was that Parkersen came to the front in an uneailed for, oflicioug and insolent manner. In fact, he was the leader of the muss which ended in the present forced vacation, it was he who made the incendiary address in the dining hall and it was he who set on the students of his p to put Wickes through the pumping pro- coss, was also in the fyht with the Canadian up stairs, and even after the fight was over he stalked about with an air of insolence that was hardly endur- able. ‘Lhe faculty met; they argued it was not de- sirable to expel anybody—to send them away fro college disgraced, for that would follow. th through life. They, therefore, decided to admor all concerned in the affair and the admonition war read by all the students in the chapel, the Warden in closing the reading of the paper implorir 4 to act like Christian gentlemen, forget te past and enter with renewed Viger upon their studies. This did not sutis.y the Wickes party, and Wickes threai- ened to go before a i go and obtain a civil war- rant for the arrest oF Parkersen, The anthorities believed that such a course would add fuel to the flame, aud Gnally prevailed on him not to do it. 'Parkersen was again called before the Warden and was toll If he would quietly leave the college his diploma would be awarded to him on commencement day, and be could graduate: with the ysual honors, and nothing (further would be said about the matter, Porkerse alk and manner in repiy Was again im- pudent an rbearing, and the Warden reterred to it severely, ing to the Bishop in his letter thet thon it was simply © question whether the student should give way to the college or the college to the student, and them Parkersen was dismissed alter o having refused the offer of a dipioma, im commence- ment, which he will not now get. WICKES’ ACTION COMMENDED, The Warden does not cousider that Wickes “tat- tied,” for when he wrote the letter referred to he did 80 with the full consciousness that he was doing what ‘was right under his oath with the other students not to indulge in intoxication or ungentiemanly cqnduct, and 1s oath would not allow him to associate with those who did, his lette sion to the Warden was a matter of his own self-protection asa Christian man. The authorities say Parkersen cannot come back if he would; that he went out of his way to originate the trouble when his name had in no way, shape or manner been con- nected with the ‘sleighride, As regards those | who sided and left with him, the Warden feols as- sured that nearly all of them will return, and ex- hibited a letter from the father of one, who spoke in the highest terms of the action of the college au- thorities, closing with the remark that his son would certainly return at the end of the vacation, ‘The Warden also ted that Parkersen, generally speaking, had been a good student and always atten- tive to his studies, Acommunication in @ local paper intimated that the faculty set the boys a bad example in allowing beor and intoxicating drinks on the tabl¢ on com- mencement days. Ten years ago beer was allowed on the table, but the authorities saw that it would notdoand prohibited it, and tor ten years the use of any kind of intoxicating drinks on the premises has been strictly forbidden, aa THE CATTLE DISEASE. REPRESSIVE MEASURES TO BE INTRODUCED BY THZ NEW JERSEY LEGISLATURE TO-DAXY— A FRENCH VETERINARY SURGEON'S VIEWS, “Quiet reigned at Blissville yesterday, The deputy sheritfs Who were found ‘wanting when their services were required to protect gentlemen from violence appeared to be on the alert, owing doubtless to Gen- eral Patrick's latest order. That the Sheriff did not dismiss all the negligent deputies has surprised | General Patrick, who remarked to the Heranp re- porter, “I would rather have three policemen than a whole ship load of such fellows as are employed at the stables, It is no wonder that people are dis- gusted at the loose manner in which the Governor's order was at first interpreted by the officials of Queens county.” General Patrick hinted very plainly that if the quarantine were to last much longer the Governor would make some changes among the officials. : . “There is one portion of my testimony before the legislative committee in Trenton,” said Professor Law to the Henap reporter, “which I think is misunder- stood. When I stated that the disease never occurs among steers, I thought it would be generally under- stood that steers aro killed so soon after their arrival in the cattle yards that there is no time for the de- velopment of the divease. I desire that to be dis- tinctly understood before the Cattle bill is introduced in the Legislature.”” z A YRENCH VETERINARY SURGEON'S VIEWS, Mr. John Owen Rouse, chairman’ of the legislative Committee on the Cattle Disease in*he New Jersey House of Assembly, had 2 long interview last even- ing with Professor Chambon, of Jersey City, in ré- gard to the treatment of the cattle disoase, A Hruatp reporter was present during the interview. ‘The Professor is a graduate of the Veterinary College of Alfort, in Paris, and his opinions were based upon experiments by such experts as Professors L, Renoult, P. Gouboux, P. H. Bouby, F. P. Reynal and P. J. Collins. The Profeseor was commissioned as a veterinary surgeon in the French army by Secre- tary of War Lebeent, in 1870, and he served through the entire war between France and Germany. ‘There is a mistaken idea,” said tre Professor, “in regard to this cattle disease, that © ought to be set right. . I pave seen it stated | in some of the papers that the milk of diseased cattle was poisonous. That is not correct. As I see by the HeRap that a law is about to be enacted in Now Jersey in relation to this matter, it is well that wo should procesd ungerstandivgly. | In | the first plage, let it be tememberod ' that there are threo stages in this cattle disease, The first stage of plouro-pneumonia is easily ctred, and there is no danger whatever, either from the milk or the meat. {n spite of opin- ions to the contrary by emineut veterinary surgeons Tam prepared to prove that inoculations at. this stage will prevent a spread of the disease. ‘The ex- periments made in France have put this question be- yond the pale of controversy.” ° ‘Professor,” said the reporter, “before we pros ceed to a consideration of the second stage of the dis- ease let me ask what are your views in regard to its origin?” ° “I intended to tell you that sippy was the reply; ‘or, after ail, this is the solution of the problem. To sum up the case gor the bevetit of cat- tle owners let me say that want of proper ventila- tion lies at the root of the evil. The fermentation of vegetable matter in the stables generates sulpuritic acid, and this, when inhaled with vapor of ammonia, has a most deleterious effect upon the cattle.” “In regard to the second stage of the disease,” said the ‘Professor, “the time for its development has never been accurately determined, but it varies trom six weeks to three months. If the disease bo properly treated in the first stage it cannot become chronic, and it is worth observing that the meat in this second stage is not injurious but the milk is du cidedly so.” “What are the symptoms in this stage ?”’ asked the reporter. . “Tubercles in the lungs,” was the reply. “They ry small at first, especially on the bronchial tubes. This is followed by 4 white discoloration, and the tubercles become hard. The surrounding tissue assumes a red discoloration. It must be re- membered that the tubercles I have alluded to are the centre of local inflammation and generate in the human system what is known as phthisis pulmon- alis, or, im common parlance, consumption.’ And here I would observe that this disease does not occur in steers spontancously. In their case the malady is derived entirely from contact with diss animals, THE THIRD STAGE, “Ana now,” said the Professor, “I come to the last stage, which can be brietly deseribed, It is simply such an uggravation ot the disease that re- covery is impossible. There is a general inflamma- tion around the tubercles which change to # yellow color. ‘The tissues of the lungs between the tuber- cles are destroyed by inflammation aud a hollow cavern is formed in the Imngs. A stagnation of the blood is the result, a yellow liquid is exuded, and the circulation through the pleuritic regiou coustitutes what is known us pleurisy. At fis stage of the disease the animal is worthless for meat, but the milk is not affected.” Mr. Chambon was called to attend a cow a few days ayo in Jersey City, and found the beast suffer- ing from the third stage of pieuro-pneumonia, He hdd the animal killed immediately and sent to the bone yard. He luys great stress on the fact that there is a great difference between this disease and thd regular cattle plague, which in Latin is termed typhus and in German rinderpest. The disease ax- sumed its most malignant form in Huugary, Illyria, Southern Russia and Bohemia. Whenever rinderpest breaks out among cattie, they must be killed promptly. Mr. Rouse informed the Henaup reporter that the bili will be introduced to-morrow moruing, and will bo rapidiy pushed through both houses of the New Servey Legislature. MICHALL SMITH'S FUNERAL. ‘The funeral of the late Michael Smith yestorday in the Greenville section of Jersey City brought together more prominent people from all parts of Now Jersey than have ever been seen on any similar occasion in Jersey, City. The deceased wis widely known throughout the State because of hig great influence in tie legislative halls at Trenton, and his power in the “third house’ a few years ago was such that he be- caine known as “Governor Mike,” by which name he was called up to the time of his death. He had resided in Jersey City for nearly thirty years, and a few years ogo erected a magnificent road house on the Bergen Point ben road, where all the sporting men and politicians of note congregated ery summer, The funeral services were heid in house in the presence of a very lorge assemblage. ye remains were eneased in & haudsome black cloth th covered casket, heavily mounted with silvec, the top ot which Was literally covered with — floral many of them of — magnifieent offerings, fesigh The pall bearers were Register J. b.

THE ASTLEY BELT CONTEST. PRESENT CONDITION OF AFFAIRS -NO SERIOUS HITCH ANTICIPATED—THE ARRANGEMENTS AT | GILMORE. § GARDEN, There is in reality no foundation for the rumor | that a serious hitch exists in the mo!ter of signing | articles of agreement to govern the coming contest for the Astley belt. Rowell, the English candidate, some time ago forwarded to O'Leary, the holder of the trophy, a memorandum of agreement to which he desired the latter to affix his name, ‘There were so many peculiar provisions in the document | O'Leary took but little notice of it. The agreement | merely expressed Rowell’s wishes, and just so far | were courteously recognized. Many directions were given in the agreement regarding the laying out of the tracks and dividing the gate moncy if only two men coppeted. As it was kuown at the time that four competitors were certain to take part inthe strugglo that portion of Rowell’s articles appeared | somewhat foolish. John Ennis, of Chicago, was the first to challenge O'Leary for the belt, and therefore has the prior claim to make all necessary arrangements | with the latter governing the event. Ennis to-day has in his pocket a letter dated London, November 7 1878, from George W, Atkinson, of the Sporting Lifep the stakeholder, assuring him that he has “the first claim to make a match with Mr. O'Leary.” man was the next challenger, which mado the affair | & sweepstakes, as the belt is open to the world. Rowell was the last to join the number, his challenge being published in the Sporting Life December 4, 1878, under date of Cambridge, December 1, In this card Rowell says in substance that Eanis, Harriman and “Blower’’ Brown, since retired, were ahead of him, and bis right was merely that of taking part in the affair in company with the previous challengers, Rowell’s next evsay, however, was his memorandum | of agreement, which has caused some argument; but, as it is dovoid of authority, it is not supposed it will cause trouble. ‘The articles in question lack another essential point. They contain no definite provision regarding the gate money other then the share which the winner will regeive, and, therefore, are practically useless in the matter ot settling the ques tion, In the first’ meeting the four candidates hid the other day in this city it was pro- posed and accepted that a competitor who did not cover 450 miles during the six days should not re- ceive any portion of the receipts. All were unanim- ons upon this point and have not since changed their minds; The competitors aiso agreed that before | they decided upon the exact mode of dividfng the gute money they would wait for Mr. Atkinson, the representative of the Sporting Life, who is expected in New York within a day or two. Though the four men will hold a ‘meeting to-day to dis- cuss the whole matter it is not probable that the required agreemeuts will be signed until Atkinson's arrival. The men are themselves willing to agree tu a fair division, and there will be no trouble in the matter unless outside interference causes it, THE COMPETITORS. O'Leary visited triends yesterday, taking consider- able exercise in this way.” He is putting himself in fine physical form, und, though making no boasts, it is pretty certain that he feels able to take care of his Hate us along distance walker. Rowell took | a little exercise in the morning, aud during the | afternoon, im company with Eunis, stretched his | limbs in Central Park, and dia not return until dusk. | Harciman also exercised under the direction of his trainer, John Fraser, taking that amount of work which is simply required to keep in good trim. Rowell is the smallest man of the four candidates, and now weighs about 140 pounds in costume. His style of progression is a trot, yet he moves along with so much ease that there is no apparent exertion’ in the efforts. He has been going around the track at Gilmore’s in about 63 seconds to the lap, end as eight circuits makeatile his exercising reaches eight miles or thereabouts an hour. Very solidly built, Rowell seems capable of bearing much fatigue, and judging from his conversation he is hopefal of winning. Should no accident happen him, and his heaith con- tinue good, which is almost certain to be the case, he will step on the track the night of starting in magnificent form. The same may be said of the other competitors. All four are very earnest and the result must be a fine record, ARRANGEMENIS AT GILMORE’S GARDEN. The arrangements at Gilmore's will be excellent, ‘The floor laid down for the Arion testivai will re- | } main in placo during the waik, 80 the competitors ‘and spectators will uot be annoyed with clouds of stifling dust, as was the case during the O'Leary- Campana affair. Special provision will be made for the accommodation of ladies and their escort during the competition, a portion of the buildin; being set apart for them, with oficers statio: Kt so as to provent the ixtrusion of otier spectacoM. Smoking will be prohibited in this part of the gur- den. The track will be laid out to suit the comp-ti- tors, and a city surveyor will measure it in their presence, and furnish the managers with a certificate regarding its length, SCOURNG OF THE LAPS: Mr. William B, Curtis has been requested to take charge of the scoring. This important duty will be atteuded to by members of the se amateur ath- letic clubs in this vicinity, each day's work being performed by & separate lub. _ So far as now known the following arrangement is likely to be made:—Monday, New York Athletic Club; ‘Tuesday, Brooklyn Athletic Club; Wednesday, Harlem “At letic Club; Thursday, Scottish-American Athletic Club; Friday, Manhatian Athletic Club; Saturday, American Athietic Club. In Rowell's memoranda of agrecment it is proposed that five judges be celected trom the sporting press to take charge of the com): tition, It has been argued = with much for that the presidents of the several athletic clots who will attend to the business of scoring will be the proper persons to act as judges, ic such officials are necessary. The chief officer of the club gu duty at the scoring sheets wili be present during their time of service, but it is not quite so certain that judges selected as proposed could con- yeniently remain on duty through the small hours of the night. As the race is, “go a: you please,” there will be little to judge. Fouls might occur, but these are unlikely. BETTING. There is much speculation among the sporting fraternity regarding the result of the coming ¢ Many bets have already been mado, among th $4,000 to $2,000 that O'Leary beats Harriimon, and 3,000 to $1,000 the field against liarriwan. The npetitors are willing to speculate theiselves, and it is said that they have wagered consilorable money on the distances they will cover. Messrs. Kelly & Bliss hage opened a book on the eveut, and offer the following:—75 against 100 on O'Leary, 100 to 45 ust Rowell, 3 to 1 against Herriman, and 10 to 1 against Ennis, ‘The refreshment privileges ot the xarden for the woek were let on Saturday even The bids were opened in presence of the competitors, the award being to the bidder who offered 5 25.

A race in skifis for the aquatic championship of England and the Challenge Cup given by the proprietors of the Sportsman (newspaper) was rowed on the Tyne yesterday between William Eliott, of Blyth, and John Higgins, of Shadwell, who held the championship previous to its passing to Elliott in September last, Both men were thor- oughly trained for the race, Elliott by James Taylor and McGregor of Neweastle, and Higgins by George Drewitt, of London; the ex-champion’s coaches ou the river being Kelly and Thomas.

After several fatile efforts Elliott got i with a good quarter. lenuth the best of the start, but Higgins, pulling a clean steady stroke, was level before a hundred yards had been covered, The northeruer, however, soou settied down to his work with a powerful stroke of about thirty-eight to the minute, and he quickiy gained on his opponent, At Skinner's Burn, about a qturter of & mile from the start, Elliott tea by nearly alength.

Higgins evidently did his utmost, but without avail, Eiliott lifted his skiff along in fine style, and he kept well into midstream so that there could be no possibility of @ foal. About a hundred yards cast of the bridge Higyins made a desperate eitort to | overteke his man, and did succeed momenturiiy ta shortening his lead; but Eiiiote was equal to the pressive, and he was first by ‘® length Aa on passing underneath the str Tho cham. | pion now eased @ Little, etill ing his lead, | apparontly with much power in reserve.

Daniel Winkens was once a well known brewer in the Nineteenth ward. He was a prosperous man, ‘They were not paid by the makers, and Winkens allowed his property to be sacrificed to meet these obligations, While thus trying to save his crodit his wife died and he himself wes stricken with paralysis, Ont of the wreck of his property about $20,000 was saved and placed in the hands of a friend to be held in trust for Winkens, whose mind was shattered, He -hat » life insurances policy for $5,000, ily, Mr, Adaim Weber, the trustee of the mfoncy, 5 aside and Bernhard A. Mylius, an uptown physician, who managei to gain considerable iniu- | en ver the old man, recoiyed some $17,000 of Wine ken's money, ot which about $5,000 had b ab- sorbed in lawyers’ fees, The insurance policy also got into his possession, and in 1877 Mr, Winkens was living on charity with a relative at College Point, L. TL. He was at inst adjudged by the Supreme Court to be a lunatic, and Mr, ‘Lncodore Karner, superinten- dent of Post office station H, at Aixtieth street and Third avenue, wes appointed guardian of his person and estate, °F mediately, by leave of the Court, i recoyer the policy of insurance 00, which it was alleged Mylius had collected, upon Mr, William H. Townley, ot No. 16) Broad- Way. was cngaged as counsel, and Mylius was imime- distely arrested upon au order granted by Judge Donohne, Bail was fixed at $7,000, and the defendant was locked up in Ludlow Street Ja: ‘The trial of the. case took place before Samuel Marsh, Esq., who was appointed referee. Pilty-two hearings were had before him, and a’ very ‘large amount of testimony taken, The result of a pro- tracted trial before Samuel Marsh, who was ap- pointed referce, is announced in the referee's decision, dated Mat He iinds that Winkens was imposed upon by Mylius and that he was unfit to make cou- tract; that the insurance policy belongs to Winkens, and Mylius must return it and pay over the money he has collected upon it with interest and costs. This action will be tollowed by another to cause Mylins to return the money. In’ the fifty-two hear- ings before Reteree Marsh, the detendant never ap- peared onthe stand.
