MEW YORK, Sept. 17.—The commissioners to conclude the terms of . peace with Spain, sailed to-day, on board the Cunard line steamer Campania, en route to Paris. Thjs commission consists of former Secretary of State William R. Day, United States Senators William P. Frye, Cushman K. Davis and George Gray, and Whitelaw Reid. Each commissioner is accompanied on the trip by his wife or other members of the family. In the party are also J. B. Moore, secretary and counsel to the commission; John R. MacArthur, assistant secretary, and wife; Frank Branagan, disbursing clerk, and Mrs. Branagan: Mrs. Atkinson and Mrs. McNauthgon, stenographers, and Edward Savoy and Henry Freeman, confidential messengers. Prior to going on board the steamer, Mr. Day said to a reporter; “We had a conference with the Cabinet before leaving Washington, except Senator Gray. All uncki tand the wishes of the Cabinet with reference to the terms of the treaty and I believe there will be practically no change after conference with the Spanish commissioners.” ■ • "Do you expect much opposition to the terms from the Spanish commissioners?” “I think that America’s terms will be regarded as reasonable and, therefore, I believe the work of the commissioners will not be impeded by useless discussion.” Senator Frye would say nothing as to the Intentions of the commissioners. As to the commissioners going to Paris with set duties and irrtfragible conditions to be placed before the Spanish commissioners, the Senator said that school boys might just as well be sent if such were the case. He declared that nobody could tell what new conditions might arise which would have to be met. discussed and decided wholly by the commission. Senator Frye had no idea of the time it would take to complete the work of the commission. He said that Spanish diplomats were not hasty in their work. Besides the five American peace commissioners and their retinue of thirty-two persons. there were as passengers aboard the Campania: Count Charles d’Ursel, Belgian minister of the Congo State; Frank W. Mack, of the Associated Press; Maj. Mait-land-Kirwan. Gustav Miller, a special Belgian commissioner who has been investigating the higher branches of commercial education in the United States, and James F. Egan, delegate from the amnesty commission, and ox-political prisoner in England who has been chosen sword-bearer to the municipality of Dublin, Ireland. REPLY TO THE W. C. T. U. Gov. Tanner Says Wine Will Be Uaed la Christening the Illinois. SPRINGFIELD, 111., Sept. 17.—Governor Tanner has decided the battle ship Illinois ■hall be christened with champagne and today the following letter to Mrs. Matilda B. Carse, Jessie Brown Hilton and Helen L. Wood, the committee of the W. C. T. U. who protested against christening the battle ship with wine: “Ladies—i have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of your letter of the 10th Inst., replying to which 1 will say that it is with pleasure I pay my highest respects to the noble women of your union, aiuj acknowledge with profound apreciation the excellent good you are laboring to establish. I would consider it a privilege to be able to assist you. Thousands of homes are better for your guardianship; thousands of hearts are grateful to you for your Christian aid and the world is better for having known the Women's Christian Temperance Union. In the matter, however, of following the timehonored custom of christening battle ships there is no desecration of the laws of temperance. The ceremony is not one from which any evil could possibly be set forth, and the moat sacred religious ordinance, the •sacrament,’ which the world commemorates with deepest solemnity and honor, is one in which wine is used as a symbol. . Therefore I dismiss the subject us one unworthy of so much agitation. If left to me the battle ship Illinois will be christened according to the time-honored custom. Very' truly yours. “JOHN R. TANNER.” RECEIVER APPOINTED. Chicago and Minuuk Coal and Tile Company In Custody of Court. CHICAGO, Sept. 17.—The Chicago and Minonk coal and tile works, with offices at 201 Western Union and controlling mining property at Minonk, Woodford county, valued at $300,000, came into the custody of the Circuit Court to-day through the entrance of an order by Judge Tuthill appointing Frank D. Ketcham receiver for the concern. The receiver was named upon the bearing of a bill of complaint presented by Jane jft. A. Ross, who, with her brother, Knowlton L. Anus, and her sister, Harriet C. McCormick, formed the Chicago and Minonk Coal and Tile Company. The complainant asserts that the property controlled by the company was a part of the estate of her father. Miner T. Ames, who died in January, 1891. which, at the partition of the property by the Probate Court in 1*194, came into the possession of the partnership. In order to preserve the business and assets of the company which would sulfur if the mines were allowed to remain idle during the prosecution of suits against the company, a receiver is asked.

THE YEARLY MEETING e FRIENDS WILL ATTEMPT TO REFORM ST'ATE DIVORCE LAWS. — A Call for Help for Raftnlan Subjects Whose Relief Is Similar to thut of the (tuskers. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. PLAINFIELD, Ind., Sept. 17.—The attendance at the Friends’ Yearly Meeting is growing continually until to-day every one says there are more people, here than there have been for years. The interest, also, is excellent, most of the hundreds present sitting through the long business session. Before the close of the business session yesterday afternoon a proposition came from the executive body asking the Yearly Meeting to take steps to present the question of better divorce laws to the next General Assembly. It met the hearty approval of the meeting and persons were named to nominate a committee to have the matter in charge. This committee, when appointed, will request the co-operation of Indiana Yearly Meeting, which convenes at Richmond, Sept. 27, and also of other religious denominations in the State. A plan will be devised for the amendment of the present divorce laws, and a vigorous attempt will be made to secure its adoption by the next Indiana Legislature. The meeting also was asked in a communication from Friends of London, England, to give financial assistance to a people in Russia numbering several thousands called Dukhobortsi, who hold views identical with those of Friends on the questions of w T ar and the leading of the Holy Spirit. They have been greatly persecuted by the Czar because of a refusal to bear arms. Through the influence of the Empress’s mother the Czar has consented to their emigration from the country. The matter was referred to a committee. Some opposed the granting of money for emigration on the ground that it may be the will of God for them to remain in Russia to protest in favor of peace, especially at a time when the Czar himself has brought the subject of international disarmament before the other nations of the earth. To-day opened rainy and sultry, but enthusiasm rose to a high point at the 8 o’clock devotional service, under the preaching of Rev. Barclay Jones, of Spiceland. At the 10 o’clock business session, credentials were read for Rev. William L. Wilson, of North Carolina, and Rev. William Thornberry. of Ohio. The committee appointed last year to consider the request for anew quarterly meeting at Sheridan, lnd., reported, through the chairman, Rev. ‘Willis Bond, against the proposition, which was accepted. The evangelistic committee proposed the establishment of a building fund for the benefit of church extension work. This marks anew and important era in the history of the Friends’ Church and brings them to the front as an aggressive body. By the plan proposed each family is requested to voluntarily pay to this fund an amount equal to 10 cents for each member of the family. Those having means are asked to make special contributions to the fund, while others, in making wills, are asked to remember this work. The general superintendent of the Yearly Meeting, together with quarterly meeting superintendents and pastors, are intrusted with the col- ' lection of this money. The meeting directed this fund into the hands of the trustees of the Yearly Meeting. The fund shall be used only in building church houses, where new churches are organized, or in exceptional cases where meetings are weak, trustees shall have from this fund not to exceed one-fourth, on in exceptional instances, one-third, of the amount required for the building. The loans are to be made for a term of five years without interest. The time may be extended, interest being charged after the five years. Should any meeting be unable to pay the money back the Yearly Meeting will take action in the case upon the written statement of the trustees. Property to receive loan must be insured, and must be made to legally appoint trustees of the local church. The report of the work of the evangelistic and pastoral department, given by the superintendent. Rev. David Hadley, was extremely important. The statistics given show the following:

Rev. David Hadley, of Plainfield, was retained as superintendent of the work the coming year, with the following executive committee: William L. Pyle, Morris E. Cox, William Trueblood, Ruth Anna Sanders and Saran Ballard. A collection and subscription was taken up amounting to S6OO. At the afternoon session the report of the president and trustees of Earlham College was presented. The report of the treasurer of the college shows a profit to the institution of $93, but on account of the establishment of anew physical laboratory there is a real deficiency of $709. President Mil’s read his report, from which the following statistics were taken: Whole number students, 239; college department, 206: graduates, 36; preparatory department, 13; music, 57; young men, 107; young women, 89; Friends in college. 112; Friends, in all, 11S; professors in college, 15; teachers in other departments, 4. Eight Friends’ yearly meetings wore represented In th" college last year, as follows: Indiana, 67; Western, 41; Ohio. 2: Kansas, 2; Canada. 1; California, 2; Baltimore, 1; Wilmington, 2. Forty-nine per cent, of all the students in attendance was made up of Friends and sixteen States and Territories were represented. Prof. Elbert Russell, In auitlon to his work as professor of the biblical department, has been appointed college pastor. A number of changes were reported in the faculty. Since its foundation as a college Earlham has graduated 468, of whom 420 are now living. Os these. 180 have, at some time, engaged in teaching. Three graduates are now presidents of colleges, twenty-seven are professors in colleges, fif-ty-one ate principals, superintendents or instructors, one is a missionary in China, another in Japan and two among the Indians. Two are in Christian work at Honolulu. The assets of the college are shown to be about $300,000, with an indebtedness of about $32,000. The C. E. people held a mass meeting tonight, addressed by Rev. Levi Mills, of Wilmington, O. To-morrow will witness the presence of thousands if the weather be favorable. Tn all eight devotional services will be held in the grounds to-morrow, if it does not rain. nniitixtn to Get Reduced Rates. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. CRAWFORDSVILLE. Ind., Sept. 17.—1* A.

NEW YORK, Sept. 17.—Judge Lacombe has signed an order restraining the trustees of Amherst, Bowdoin, Dartmouth, Hamilton, Williams, Adelbert, Park, Lafayette, Marysville, Marietta, Wabash, Yale, Columbia, the University of Rochester, Union Theological Seminary, the University of Virginia, Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institution and the Wesleyan University from disposing of any money paid to them from the “alleged secret trust in, or concerning the residuary estate of” Daniel B.

THE FINANCIAL OUTLOOK SECRETARY GAGE DOES NOT ANTICIPATE A MONEY STRINGENCY. ♦ Only $13,000,000 of the Amount Dne for War Bonds Remains to Be Paid Into the Treatary. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.—The government will no longer be a disturbing factor in the finances of this country. Only about $13,000,000 of war-bond money remains to be paid into the Treasury, and this balance will come in during a period of two months or more. Meantime the government will be paying out mere than it receives, and government money to the amount of probably $100,000,000 will be made available for commercial use by being placed in government depositaries. Os tnis amount about $73,000,000 is already on deposit in these banks. Secretary Gage this afternoon describes the general financial outlook as encouraging, and says that there is no reason to anticipate stringency or discomfort in any locality. Banks asking for government money have been advised that hereafter they will only be allowed an amount equal to their captitalization, no matter how many bonds they may be prepared to deposit as security. The raising of the rates of interest in New York will have a tendency to attract money to that center. Government tunas deposited with banks will be sent so as to effect an equitable distribution by States, ILLUMINATES THE WORLD. United States Sends 1.034,260,076 Gallons of Oil Abroad. WASHINGTON, Sept. 17.-The United States illuminates the world more effectively and completely each year. Despite the fear so frequently expressed of late that the large production of petroleum in Russia and Dutch East Indies and the increased use of electricity for lighting purposes would reduce our valuable exports of illuminating ells, the year just ended has shown the greatest exportation of that article in the history of that important branch of our foreign commerce, and the figures for August shGW the largest exportations of oil for any single month on record. The reports of the Treasury Bureau of Statistics show that the exports of mineral oils in the fiscal year 1898 passed the billion gallon line, the total, including all classes, being 1.034,269,676 gallons, against 973.614.945 gallons in 1897 and 890,458.994 gallons in 1896. The large production of mineral oils in other parts of the world, while it has not reduced our exportation, has probably reduced the prices which our producers and exporters have been able to realize. The exports of oil in the year 1898 were practically double those of ISBB. and three times those of 1878, but the money received for them was only about 25 per cent, greater than that received either In 1878 or 1888. The total receipts for the 1,034.269,676 gallons of oil exported in 1898 were $56,126,578. while for the 578,351,638 gallons exported in 1888 the receipts were $47,042,409, and for the 338,841,303 gallons exported In 1878 the receipts were $46,574,974. The average export value of refined illuminating oil was in 1872, 24.9 cents per gallon; in 1878, 14.4 cents per gallon; in 18S8, 7.9 cents per gallon, and In 1898 , 5.2 cents per gallon, having thus fallen from 24.9 cents to 5.2 cents from 1872 to 1898. Notwithstanding this steady fall the production and exportation continues to Increase, the exports having increased over sixty million gallons in the past year over that of the preceding year and over one hundred million gallons over that of any earlier year. w T hile the production for 1897 was 2.528,067.984 gallons. against 2,0.33.331,972 in 1894. 1.476.867,546 in 1890. 1.017,174,369 in 1885 , 836.394,132 in 1880 and 510,825,588 in 1876. Thus while the price has been steadily and rapidly falling the quantity produced and the quantity exported have as steadily and rapidly increased. The production in 1897 was five times that of 1876. and the exportation of last year nearly five times that of. 1876. Great as the fall in price has been, the exports of illuminating oil bring over a million dollars a week into the country, and have in the past twenty years added a round billion of dollars to our foreign sales.

ditional Relief Commission. ■WASHINGTON. Sept. 17.—A delegation of the national relief commission of Philadelphia, consisting of John Converse, chairman; W. E. Potter, ex-minister to Italy, chairman of the subcommittee on camp inspection; George C. Thomas, J. L.

Savage Trllie* in Revolt Aguinst Their Jnimneae Rulers. TACOMA, Wash., Sopt. 17.—Mall advices from Japan state that another formidable rebellion against Japanese rulers has broken out in Formosa, this time in the southern part of the island. Two battles have been fought, one near Taichu, the other near Taihoku. The tribes w r ere defeated by the Japanese troops and the police. Many were killed and w'ounded on each side, but details are not obtainable. The rebellion is the outcome of an attempt by the Japanese administration to extend its jurisdiction over the semisavage tribes living in the interior.

JOSEPH, Mo., Sept. 17.-Indlanapolis made it three straight by winning from the Saints to-day. Two games were to have been played, but owing to a heavy rain last night the grounds did not get into condition in time. Indianapolis objected to the calling off of the first game, claiming the grounds were all right. Foreman circulated a petition among the audience and secured the names of about one hundred spectators who agreed that the grounds were not too heavy. The locals were able to score only in the first inning, when they succeeded in bunching hits, together with a base on balls and an error by Stewart. The visitors found Cooper quite a mystery until the fifth, when they started on him in true style. Flynn scored in the second after a double, on McCauley’s passed ball. He also scored again in the fourth after reaching first on bails, stole second and third and crossed the plate on Scott's single. In the fifth, McFarland led off with a double. Kahoe followed with another double, scoring McFarland. Nichol grounded down to first and Kahoe scored on Flynn’s single with the next two men up failing to reach first base. Hickey scored in the sixth on Hogriever’s single after first reaching the initial bag on his own single. The runs in the sixth, seventh and eighth were scored on clean hitting. The score: St. Joseph.

Claims to Have Been Robbed. Manager Allen telegraphed to President Golt the fact that the champions were practically robbed of a game with St. Joseph yesterday by the action of Manager Van Brunt, of the street-railway company, which controls the club in that town. Van Brunt refused to allow his team to play more than one game, notwithstanding the fact that two were scheduled, one being a postponed game. The excuse offered by the St. Joseph man was that the grounds were not in condition to play two games on, but this is regarded by the Indianapolis management as a poor excuse, in view of the fact that in order to get the admission money the St. Joseph people decided that the grounds were all right for one game. Manning stands well in St. Joe, and there is little doubt but what he instigated the move in order that the Indianapolis team might not arrive in Kansas City in the lead. Phillips is said to have recovered from his recent illness and is ready to play ball when the team arrives in the town on the banks of the Kaw river. Fleming, who was loaned to the St. Joseph team early in the season, was yesterday taken back by Manager Allen, who needs his good stick work in the final games with Manning’s men. Senator* Lost Both Games. ST. PAUL, Minn., Sept. 17.—The Senators dropped two games here to-day. The first was a beautiful contest, ten innings being necessary to decide it.

PITTSBURG, Sept. 17.—President Powers, of the Interstate League, furnishes the following: “The Interstate League season of 1898 practically closed to-day. To-mor-row Grand Rapids plays two games at Springfield, while Dayton will play one game at Toledo. Dayton, by defeating Toledo two games. to-day, wins the pennant, with a percentage of .570; Toledo, .556; Springfield, .545; New Castle, 541; Grand Rapids, .493; Mansfield, .473; Fort Wayne, .457; Youngstown, .365. Baseball Note#. The fans will await news of to-day’s game with, anxiety. Manager Hanlon says Cleveland mustn’t transfer those October games to Cincinnati. Hughes, Rusie, Powell, Piatt, Nichols, Griffith and Tannehill have each four shutouts to their credit this season. Von der Horst, of Baltimore, says he would like to increase the side bet of Boston for a series of games with Baltimore to $6,000 if Boston is willing. Motz’s absence i3 most unfortunate at this time, and if Indianapolis can land the pennant with a crippled team Allen and his men deserve great credit. Motz returned to Indianapolis yesterday. Joe Keliey, of Baltimore, has made a record for triples. In twenty-seven games last played he has made eight, besides four doubles and a home run. In twenty-two games he made thirty-four hits, a percentage of .366. McFarland now seems pretty much at home in Motz’c corner, and if he can play the base all right for three days more the long first baseman's absence will be overlooked, though the team is not so strong at the bat. Motz’s hitting will be missed at Kansas City. Tim Hurst concludes a letter to a baseball writer with the quaint observation: “You can never know what true happiness is until you become a baseball manager. It is such rare and radiant fun to be expected to sign batters that can hit everybody and pitchers nobody can hit.” Connie Mack might accept the offer of President Franklin, of the Buffalo club, if he is so sure of Western League superiority. Franklin proposes to wager $2,009 on three Eastern League teams, to be selected by him, against any three Western League teams. Mack says the three weakest teams in the Western League can defeat the three strongest in the Eastern League. Suspending Manager Fisher and appointing Roat as leader of the Babes looks like a case of out of the frying pan into the fire. Fisher’s habits never were of the best, and Roat is also addicted to the cup that cheers, but perhaps he will manage to keep on his feet as a manager through three or four games, though it is doubtful, as the last three will be played in Milwaukee. Umpire Gaffney proposes that a pitcher be not required to run bases, that when he reaches first base he be returned to the bench and another runner substituted. Many a pitcher, he says, has lost his game through his exertions on the base lines. Tom Brown gpes further and suggests that the pitcher be excused from batting at all. Neither suggestion is likely to be adopted. Indianapolis must win two of the three Kansas City games in order to finish first. It’s a tough proposition. Had Milwaukee made a decent showing against the Blues in the series just ended Indianapolis would have had pretty clear sailing. One victory by the Brewers would have just about settled it, but they lost all three games, much to the disgust of the fans here. If the weather Is good this afternoon at Kansas City there will be an enormous crowd at the game upon which so much depends. Freda Merc’s Sad Life. ' The statement has been made that Freda Merz, the daughter of Carl Merz, who died last week of meningitis, was the little girl who, in April, 1895, was horribly burned in a bonfire and whose life was saved by tha skin-grafting process. The little girl who was burned was Freda Mall. The life of Freda Merz was more sad than that of Freda Mall. Her father and her stepmother treated her brutally, and one morning neighbors found her lying in some weeds near her home. Her arm had been broken by a blow from a whip stock. Her father and her stepmother were arrested and were sentenced to 130 days in the workhouse. besides being fined. The Board of Children's Guardians intrusted the little girl to a Mrs. Fisher, who lives at 925 Keystone avenue. It was there that she died. She was eight years old. Trained Animal Show.

TROUBLES OF LONDON INSUFFICIENT WATER SUPPLY AND A STRIKE OF HOSTLERS. * Efforts to Wreck Railway Trains— Condition of the Prince of Wales— The Duke of Connaught a Hero. ♦ (Copyright, 1898, by the Associated Press.) LONDON, Sept. 17.—The drought continues throughout the greater part of Great Britain. A temporary fall in the barometer early in the week raised hopes which were doomed to disappointment. The temperature has again risen and London continues bathed in sunshine. The outcry in the East End of London, where the supply of water has been reduced to dangerous limits, Is taking the form of influential public meetings which violently denounce the East-end Water Company for neglecting to take proper measures to assure a supply of water and calling for municipal control of the water works. In the meanwhile the sanitary conditions are so bad in some districts that there is serious fear of epidemic. The north of London is also suffering undeserved martyrdom in the shape of a street-car famine due to a strike of the hostlers and the consequent dismissal of a couple of agitators. The many thousands of business people who rely upon cheap conveyance to the city have been seriously inconvenienced by the sudden stopping of traffic which occurred on Wednesday last. Public sympathy inclines to the side of the company, which has taken the bull by the horns and has dismissed all the strikers, engaging outsiders to take their places. * * • The whole of Great Britain has been startled by an epidemic of railroad outrages. On the Northwestern and Midland railroads, in the neighborhood of Northampton, there has been several most determined efforts to wreck passenger trains. Formidable obstructions were constructed across the track and an express train had a most narrow escape from disaster. It plowed through a veritable barricade but did not leave the rails. The most alarming feature of the outrages is the fact that the police have not been able to obtain the slightest clew to the perpetrators though a hundred detectives have been scouring the district. Consequently a panic prevails. One theory is that the crimes are the work of a band of train wreckers looking for plunder and emulating the far West hold-up. * • • After passing eight weeks in an Invalid’s chair, the Prince of Wales, for the first time, was able to walk a few paces with the aid of a stick. He traveled to Balmoral in his yacht from Portsmouth. Private letters declare the prince lately has been very irritable at the enforced restraint and he has even declared that a permanent limp would be a cheap penalty to pay for release from his floating prison. It is added that the attending physicians finally yielded and allowed the prince to journey to Scotland in order to appease their patient and also to arrest the strong stimulus which rest and sea air appetite have given to his increasing stoutness. The heir apparent will still require to wear for many weeks to come the apparatus which has been fitted to his knee. * * * The Duke of Connaught has been the hero of the French army maneuvers around Mouline, which he attended as President Faure’s chief guest. He has distinguished himself by a splendid display of horsemanship before the French staff. He was riding a borrowed horse, which, startled by the firing, tried to bolt, but reared and fell. The duke disengaged himself and escaped unhurt. Yesterday the Duke of Connaught visited the French camp kitchens, and, following the great Napoleon’s precedent, l>e asked to be allowed to taste the soldiers’ food, remarking: “I must only take a tiny morsel, as I am robbing somebody’s share/’ Then he forked out and ate a piece of beef, which he pronounced to be of excellent quality. The duke also examined the men’s overcoats, testing their weight and texture. These incidents have made the Duke of Connaught very popular with the French soldiers and villagers. At the hamlet of Ennemond they had a great treat in seeing the thirsty President of the republic and Queen Victoria’s son stop before a little public house and call for and toss down a glass of light beer while the hurriedly assembled band played ”God Save the Queen.” President Faure has decorated the duke with the grand cross of the Legion of Honor. * • * The leading newspapers here scathingly review Herr Mortz Busch’s "Life of Prince Bismarck,” - which was recently published. The general opinion is that both the author and his idol suffered greatly by the revelations made. The British naturally chiefly resent the late Prince Bismarck’s expressions of hostility to Great Britain and to the Queen and her daughter, the former Empress Frederick of Germany, with which the book teems. The Daily Telegraph says that if the work reveals the real Bismarck he lowered the moral tone of the whole of Europe, adding: “Everyone knew he made unscrupulous use of the press, but according to Herr Busch he deliberately instructed his hirelings to disseminate absolute falsehoods.” The Times remarks: “It was reserved to the sublime unconsciousness of one of his sincerest worshipers to expose all the meanness, duplicity and brutality which he combined with so many brilliant and admirable qualities.” • • • A photograph of the Czarina nursing her baby recently appeared in an English newspaper. and when it reached the Russian censor the latter was a much puzzled offi-

cial. He consulted with the minister of the interior, who was equally perplexed, and who consulted with the Czar. “The beet thing I can do,” said the Russian Emperor, “is to show this to the Czarina and let her decide.” In a few minutes, according to the story, the Czar returned and said, with a smile, to the minister of the interior: “Her imperial Majesty finds nothing in the picture contrary to the law. Let it pass.” * * * The heat Is affecting the theaters. The chief interest of the week centered in the production of the annual melodrama at Drury Lane yesterday evening, which, with a thrilling scene in a ballroom, a game of cricket at Lord’s and a representation of the military tournament, satisfies the demand for reslism. NEW MARK FOR PACERS - - 4 HALF A MILE COVERED BY STAR POINTER IN :57 1-4. * And the Mile in 1:30 1-2, Only a Quarter Second Slower than Hla Record—The Golf Championship. * PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 17.-At the Belmont track, at Narbeth, this afternoon, Star Pointer, In an effort to reduce his own mark of 1:59%, broke the track record of 2:03%, held by John R.

On the thircTscore McClair nodded for the word, and away Pointer went to make local turf history, accompanied by the runner, Mike the Tramp. The quarter pole was reached in 28% seconds. The second quarter was negotiated In 28% seconds, the half In 57% seconds, a second and a quarter better than his previous best figures for the distance.

The championship honors were carried off by Major Taylor, the little colored circuit chaser, who easily captured the one-third-mile and the two-mile races, defeating Eddie Bald, Arthur Gardiner and the other stars. Gardiner protested the one-third-mlle race on the claim that Taylor had fouled him, but his protest was disallowed. The track was heavy from recent rains and the time was slow.
