Special Dispatch to The Cail WASHINGTON. Sept. 13.—Since the | vessels were placed in commission several months ago 2% enlisted men have deserted from the battleships Kearsarge and Ken- tucky. This unusual number of deser- | tlons has caused considerable comment in naval circles. It is aseribed by officlals to the fact that the vessels are new and that the glamor which once existed rela- tive to naval service has disappeared. An | encouraging feature about the matter is | the fact that only two of the deserters | were men who had been enlisted as lands- men and were trained under the system | adopted upon the recommendation of Rear | Admiral Crowninshield. The department is obtaining highly satisfactory results from this system and it is said the men Wwho are educated men-of-warsmen render | excellent service. SELECT OFFICERS.

The so-called agreement or contract en- | tered into between the Ingleside and Unfon Park Coursing associations has evi- dently failed to satisfy all concerned, a: after living up to its cerms for an inning and a haif, the associations have agreed to disagree. At the e of the consolidation it was given out that the parks would alternate g0 far as dates were concerned: that Union Park would run for four weeks and Ingleside for three, and that during the inning of one park the other should re- main cloged. + big park commenced its series a Stro snt out t s the intention agement to have continual coursing, not ing the fact that the othe objected to the programme. the story that ro contract or agreement had ever been signed, and that the only | “‘understanding’”’ between the two clubs was that the proposition of alternate dates be glven a trial in the interest of the spert. Later on the Union Park people de- clared their intenticn of remaining open, clalming there was business enough for both s and that coursing men demanded the keeping open of both pla ourse was not to the liking of the Ingleside directcrs, though they made no effort to join in until the Union Park had violated what the Ingleside people termed a plain contract. While the San Mateo people admit that no contract was signed, ihey ciaim that the agreement was in effect inasmuch as the Union Park has lived up to its terms. Those interested in the Ingleside Club have not done much talking, but have had the matter in the hands of attorneys for some time. Tre Ingleside Aszociation declared its intention to apply to the courts for an order to force the Unfon people to live up to the “verbal” contract and prevent them violating the agreement which calls for the closing of the one park during the inning of the other.
