The plea in Mason's case will be tbe same as in the case of Guiteau insanity. A crazy letter, said to have been written by Mason to Guiteau. is Fiublished in an afternoon paper. It leaves the rapresslon of a person who la trying to simulate insanity rather than ot a man who is insane. Indignant Chrl.tiaa onsen.

Baldwin was using the bank's money irregularly" and said whenever Baldwin required It he would tarn over bis property to secure the bank. Tbe loans continually increased until tb.y reached over Nugent gave tbe cashier drafts upon friends in New York from ttme to time, which were credited to him, to meet drafts upon tbe bank, and the casbler used tbe raonev of the bank to take up the drafts in New York.

Baldwin falsified the books to conceal the deficits. The losses occasioned by these loans were entered in tbe account of the Mechanic's National Bank of New York in such a manner that while it appeared by the books in Newark that they had 92,000,000 to their credit iu tne New York bank the Newark bank really owed the New York bank. The difference in these loans, Baldwin asserted, was made up in irregular loans to C. Nugent Co. Baldwin denied that he lost any money by speculation.

During the Confession which was made by Baldwin as he lay In bed ex-Judge Fltz worth was present as his counsel. The latter immediately applied to United States Commissioner E. Q. Keasby to have tbe prisoner admitted to, bail. The commissioner agreed to fix the amount of bail at $25,000, to which the United States district attorney, A.

Q. Keasby, the father ot the commissioner, assented. Messrs. II. Baldwin.

William Dodd and W. II. Baldwin, all related bv blood or marriage to the cashier, who were in the parlor, were summoned to the cashier's bedside and signed tbe bonds presented by the commissioner, upon which the United States deputy marshal released his prisoner and retired. Based on the revelation made the cashier, United States District Attorney Keasby made a complaint tor aiding and abetting against Nugent, who was arrested at his mansion on Clinton avenue by Marshal Burnett. Nugent is also prostrated, and his physician.

Dr. O'Gorman, has forbidden him to see any one. Commissioner E. Q. Keasby was sent tor, and on the application of ex-Juage F.

H. 'leise, bis counsel, Nugent was admitted to bail in the sum ot $25,000, bis bondsmen being George B. Jenkinson and James B. Smith, wealthy manufacturers of this city. Ex-Judge Teese said subsequently that Nugent admits having had dealings with the bank for three years or more, and says be may owe it but is positive the debt cannot be larger.

He denies emphatically that bis dealings ever ran up into the millions, and says the cashier's statement is preposterous. Nueent has not decided yet whether to make an assignment to tbe bank or what course to pursue. Up to this time he bas absolutely refused to make any assignment whatever, eveu to a personal friend, ana denied the firm is unable to meet its obligations. District Attorney Keasby says the accusations pending against Baldwin involve Forgery and Perjury. pure air is vastly of more vital importance.

Wo require it every moment. Wbile wo sleep wa breathe. Any number of persons in a inek) dormitory for a single Bight, or ia a school for a day, without change of air would suffocate. So in our growing citv, doubling It. population every twenty-five years; Increasing in tnis progressive ratio, it is high time tbat tbe system oC parks proposed by the park commissioners bo-adopted, and tbat a vent may be prepared for tha.

aggregated mass of banian beings which will, oecupv this territory fortv year, hence. During tb. five vears and three month, since tha creation of tb. park commission op to December 1, 188U, they expended only 3 78,330. And yet already they In their last report that la tbe unfinished condition of the Back Kav park tbry have created tor tb.

benefit of the' city a value of $2,000,000, which represents what the rark. as it now is, Is actually worth to tb city, is known tbat tbe Increase of value of real estate ia tbe vicinity cf the Back Bay park daring tb. present year bas been very great; so that this park mav be satd to bave already fully paid for Itself and been a source of wealth. It would seem tberefore to be the duty of the citv government to go on with the system which "promise, so much for tbe future of Boston. Mr.

Presid.nc, all tbe money asked for by tbe park commission to provide equitably for tbe different parts of tbe city Is only l.oOo.Ooo. Tbis money can now be obtained on a long loan of the citv at 4 per wbile the average Interest now paid on the whole city debt is 6 35-loo per cent. On tome of Iu loans it rays per and 00 some 7 per cent. Now th difference of 1 per cent, per annum tn interest would, if funded, pay off the whole principal Ic thirtv vears. So when it is said tbis is no time to expend money on parks, tbe ready reply is that It in the very time.

There is no time when tbo money can be hired at a leas rate, there is no time when the money can be better laid out tor park purposes; and all the parks proposed being absolutely required to meet tbe sanitary wants of tbe Immediate future, there is no tinii. to be lost. Every yoarg delay, referring tbe scheme from one city government to the next, entails an absolute pecuniary loss upon tbe city, In retarding the increase of values aad of the taxes thereon which these improvements would be sure to occasion; but more than all that, it endangers the public health and tends to increase tbe death rate. Four per cent, on is only $00,000 a year, an insignificant rani in comparison of tbe objects to be obtained; it Is lets than one-tnird of the poll tax annually received. Tbe City Council might well appropriate so much of the amount of tbe poll tax as would ba needed for paying the interest on the cost ot the parks tbat all the citizens might bave tha credit ot creating them; they will all share in tha immense benefits to be derived from them.

The public health should be tbe paramount consideration of the city government, transcending tbe claims of schools and school bouses, public libraries and new library building, court bouses and bridges. If it werq. necessary to set these asido until the park system in tne interest of the public health bo secured, it should be done. But this is by no means to be apprehended. The money required for tbe parks is so insignificant in comparison with wbat bas bee a already expended for other objects, and the financial results to tbe city are so promising tbat tbere is no need of ueglecticg to provide for any otber requirement of tbe city.

Tbe city is rich enough and within tbe legal limit is able to see that tbis is done without leaving tbe others undone." Resolutloa Adopted. Tbe following resolution was adopted unanimously: Whereas, well-established facts and publishes, statistics of othes large cities demonstrate conclusively the DtiDiic economy, great utilitv aud genuine benefits of public parks to their Inhabitants; and Whereas, the park commissioners of Itoston offer a comprehensive and well-digested plan for a system uf public parka, including a most beautiful territory in West Koxhury. a marine park in South Koston and the Charles river esplanade, and which is approved bv the committee ou finance of the city government; "Hesolved. That we, the citizens of the North End, in public meeting assembled, heartily approve said plan, and earnestly urge its immediate adoption by the City Council. The meeting then adjourned.

General Colli. Speech. The president introduced General P. A. Collins, who said: "I have never since I came before tbe puUlic in any capacity, felt a greater interest in any subject than in that of public parks.

I have not, either as counsel or- in any other capacity save as a citizen of Boston, any interest in this subject; but from the very beginning I have believed in tbe whole system of public parks as advocated by tbe present park commissioners. Since I was a member of a board of park commissioners ten years ago, the subject has been very largelysgita ted iu the city government and in the State Legislature, and the next result thus far is a park on the Back liay, which I favored necause I believed tn tbe necessity of such an establishment and because I believed tbat great cities never overdid the matter in the establishment of such parks, but rather fell short of their requirements. If Boston today is a less healthy city than New York, Philadelphia and Baltimore, it is because it is clorely built and crowded and the people have a lack of breathing places. Those who laid out Boston Common, more than a century ago, builded better than tbey knew tor the welfare of posterity; but Boston bas outgrown Boston Common, and we want a lamer area of public grounds wherein tbe citizens may breathe pure air during their hours of relaxation. Such narks are for you and for me rather than for those who own carriages and have great wealth.

The argument that has been used against this project, tbat tbe suburbs are a park in themselves, is fallacious, for the reason that These Suburbs are Fast Building I'p and soon we shall see nothing but dusty highways in our suburbs. It bas b- en demonstrated in New York tbat, notwitbstanding all the jobbery and recklessness of extravagant outlay, as an investment for tbe city itself, the establishment of Central Park is a great benefit to tbat city. Philadelphia, Baltimore and all the other larger cities have large parks; we are tbe only large city in tbis country without a park of any considerable magnitude. The taking of loo acres of mud and water on tne Back Bay caused investments to be made there aud the city to have returned to its treasury tenfold tbe outlay. It bas been money in the treasury of Boston to bave established tbe public park in the Back Bay.

It will be money in the treasury of Boston to establish parks anywhere. Now, we have two parks projected, one at west Koxuury and one at Citv Point. I am in favor of all the public parks. At West Roxbury we will bave ravines and bills and trees and water. I do not care for them to lay out a large sum of money on this park, but I do hope the citv will take that tract of land at its lowest valuation and make it such a park as the city needs.

I would have tbe city take it and pay what it is worth today, and, if neceseary, let it lie until our taxpayers can afford to make it tbe park we wish it to oe. men again, within a quarter of a mile of my bouse is to be fouDd the onlv practicable place for a marine park. on some nights there are as many as 10,000 or 15,000 people who come down to that place to ureatne tne salt air. ltgis estimated that to take sufficient land to make a park of 30 acres would cost some $60,000. $70,000 or $100,000, and that 15,000 people who now come to ureatne tne neaitny salt air will be increased to 100,000.

The city says that tbe owners of tbat land ask too much for it; I would bo williner to leave it to twelve men, sitting as a Suffolk county jury, to say what shall de the price of that land; ana to bave tne city pay ior it ana not spend another copper upon it until tbe city can afford it. If we do not take this land now, it will soon be all built over with hotels and residences. Let us take it now at tbe price of the land. There bas never been submitted to the people of Boston tbe question as to whether public parks should be established, but that it was answered in the affirmative. The city bas not established such parks as these before now simply because tbere is a ruie which requires that two-thirds of the Aldermen aud two-t Birds of tbe Common Council shall cast their votes In favor of it, and although the citizens have continually and in every way manifested their desire by overwhelming majorities, the city government has never heeded tbe public voice.

I consider tbe public man's duty to be to find out what is the will of the people, and then to try to execute tbat will. And I trust that every man who is a member of the city government will see what is the public will on this subject and also consider what Huston will require twenty years hence. We are thankful to our ancestors for what tbey have done for us, and I trust tbat posterity wiil'bave occasion thank us; for we should think what will be required in 1031 and 1081. I think the course of tbe present park commissioners is a wise and comprehensive one, and ask you gentlemen to join with us who nave no interest In this matter, and use your voices aud votes to provide for the future want of Bos-tou and not to simply look to tbe present." Applause. Rev.

Father Bodfl.h was introduced and said it was for the people, for the masses, that he would lift up his voice, lie was confident that if we do not bestir ourselves in the matter and secure tbe beautiful tract in West Koxbury we will do wrong. "We must think of tbe time when all this section of Boston will be densely populated, and then we will see tnat there is a demand lor such parks as these. Tbe death rate in Boston is much larger than it ought to be, and is larger than it is in other cities; it is because we are crowded together; it is because families bave to live these ill-ventilated tenement bouses; and when 1 see under wnat unneaitny conditions tha nnnr neonle are obliged to live 1 feel tnat I wo a id like to have a good grip on tnaf landlord and choke bim; and he is answerable to Almighty God for much of this suffering." Thomas J. Gargan ssia: -mere are three ne cessities in a great city. Tbo first is pure water, the second is good sewerage, and tbe third is great breathing places for the citv.

Boston is spending a large sum of money for tbe perfection of its sewerage; it has spent a larcre sum of money lor its water and must spend large sums of money in the future. It has cpent but a very small fraction ot its annual appropriation for the benefit of breathing places for the people. We must have water, sewerage and parks, and the question is: Can we afford to bave WUat we want here in Bost'in is a chance to give our children a good breath of pure air. Boston Common is too near the centre of tbe city. We want one removed from tbe busy streets, and this tract of land in West Roxbury would seem to be tue proper thing, and now is the time to buy this land for a park, when we can get it cheap.

How many more would enjoy the benefits of one when it costs but a car-fare to reach it, than went to Oakland Gardens during tbe last summer; and you, my friends, who are packed more closely than in any other portion of the city, are ithe very people who are most interested in this question. We are a city of a third more valuation than Philadelphia, and yet we have done nothing, so to speak. In tbe way of these great public improvements. Well, wbat is tbe remedy? You should go to the members of your Common Council and urge tbe matter upon them; create a public opinion in favor of it; tell them that you desire tbat tbey should secure, not by the expenditure of a large sum, but tor a reasonable sum, wbat shall be for the benefit and prosperity of the city which we all love." Judge O. Washington Warwa, tbe last speaker of tbe evening, said: "If the maxim be true that be is a benefactor or bis race who makes two blades of grass grow where one grew before, bow much more worthy are they or tbe popular regard who reasonably provide for cultivated open spaces and long fields of.

verdure and foliage to be tbe lungs of a pent-up and populous city. There are two essential elements of lite pure water and pure air.

Special Despatch to The Boston Globe.J Washington, October 31. The brigade of "cranks" that visited Washington shortly after President Garfield was shot seemed to have departed for good after he was removed to Long Branch. Today a "presidential crank," as tbe class of lunatics who follow the executive are known, appeared at the White HouSe in full trim to commit murder. Had tbe President been in the Executive Mansion without the protection of vigilant doorkeepers another horrible assassination might have been perpetrated. The lunatic, who said his name was John Worling of Calesville, Snyder county, came to tbe White House about 10 a.

m. He asked Allen, the doorkeeper, if Dr. John Noetling was in. Allen said he did not know of such a person, and asked him who he was. "Why," said the visitor, "he is the President-elect of the United States, and I want to see him.

I have a letter of introduction." It was then clear that tbe man was a genuine crank. He bad gotten into tbe corridor during the conversation. and the re being no policemau on hand at the time Mr. Allen concluded it was best to keep him there until Sergeant Dinsmore, who had just stepped our, returnea. ne, tnereiore, numoreu nis whims, saying that tbe President was not in just then, but as soon as bis private secretary came in he would introduce him.

This had a good effect for tbe time, and tbe stranger waited patiently for almost an hour. Although he had been in the city since tne zutn ne saia ne Had Not Seen the President, Dr. Noetling, yet. In explanation of his business ue snowea a letter, 01 wmcn tue following is a copy: John Worling. You are hereby informed that Dr.

John Noetling is lawfully elected president of tie i nitea states, ana occupies the White House every day. Almighty God, communicated by the holy spirit. He also stated that his business with tbe Presi dent, as he persisted in calling Dr. Noetling, was very important and concerned his title to office. What he wanted particularly was a card from the President to the secretary of state in order to get an accurate account of the votes cast at tbe last presidential election, which, he contended, would show conclusively the election of Noetling over general Artnur, aaaing tne remark: -tiou knows wno is elected." Private Secretarv Brown was notified of the case, and gave directions for tne man to oe turned over to tne police tor safe.

keeping. Sergeant Dinsmore came in soon and was introduced as tue president's pri vate secretarv, tie atrreea to accommodate him. and invited him to the corner of Pennsylvania avenue ana jj our-ana-a-nan street, where he said he bad left tbe President. The man refused to go. Dinsmoro then showed his badge, and said: "iou see wno 1 am.

1, want you to go witn me." "Yes; I see who you are," answered the man. aenantiy, -Dut 1 reiuse to go witn you." The Crank Made as Break for the door, but was intercepted by Allen, with whom he struggled violently. Dinsmore joined in and grabbed the man's throat, and pushed nim back into a corner. He put his hand to bis rear pocket, but Allen was too quick for him. and grabbed bis pocket.

Tbe struggle be came desperate at this point. The man was powerini, ana xougnt like a madman. Mr. Crump and Mr. Pendle came to the rescue ana a struggle ensued for the pistol.

Allen bad hold of tbe pocket. The man on bim and Dinsmore and Crump were on top 01 tue man. fidhiiv Alien was dragged out and he succeeded in getting the pistol and fiebt was over, anu tne cranK, ne was over powered, gave up. With tbe loss of his weapon be became-cowed and submitted to arrest. The weapou was a six-barrel revolver, and would nave done ternuie execution bad it been used.

Sergeant Dinsmore took charge of it and escorted tbe man to police headquarters without further trouble. The fellow was assigned a cell at police headquarters, where he will remain until he can be sent to tbe St. Elizabeth Asvlum. On tbe 4th of last May this same man was sent from this city to Harrisburg, where his brotber agreed to take cnarge 01 mm. un tne 28th inst, he returned to this city and registered at the St.

Special Despatch to The Boston Globe. Washington, October 31. The counsel for the indicted members of tbe Star route ring have been very shrewd in attempts to make it appear that their clients are anxious to secure speedy trials. It will be remembered tbat last summer General Brady made a statement, demanding at the same time an immediate trial, and ever since he has fought the proceedings of the government at every step. this course would oe highly- proper in any accused criminal.

wno was not anxious 10 wave an tecunicanties to appear in court, wnen the information filed bv the government was in readiness to be argued by tbe government's counsel they consented to a postponement, tor the convenience of Colonel Bob Inpersou 01 counsel lor the uetence, who desired to make a business trip to New Mexico. Last week Mr. Cook- of the government counsel left the city for a few days, and Mr. Bliss, who came to Washington on Friday, departed Saturday night, not having been informed by defendant's counsel 01 tnelr desire to appear in court. Saturday notice, was left at Mr.

Cook's office tbat defendants would appear in court this morn ing, anu tney uia so. jsone of tne representatives of the government save tne district attorney be ing able to be present, of course arguments could not be beard, and Thursday next, when all parties win oe present, was set aside ior tne hearing, The effect of tbe little manoeuvres was to make it seem that tbe prosecution was anxious to escape the issue raiseu py tne aeience. TIIE CLilKK SCANDAL. The Charge. Which the Missouri Cons; re.

naaa Make. Against III. Wife. Special Despatch to The Boston Globe. Washington, October 31 The wife of General John B.

Clark, member of Congress from Missouri, has been served in this city with a copy of a petition for divorce, filed by General Clark's counsel in tbe Circuit Court, Howard county, October 21. Tbe petition sets forth tbat at the ttme of his marriage, November 10, 188O, be was father of four children by a former marriage, and these children were an under age and dependent upou him. A short time after bis marriage she exhibited towards plaintiff and said children, and especially towards tbe eldest daughter, named tjU6ic, a spirii, ui impatience anu unainuness, misrepresenting to plaintiff the conduct of his children and treating them with contempt and harshness, instigating the plaintiff to unnecessary chastisement, and upon bis refusal to so chastise them she would exhibit the most violent temper and outbreak of passion. She would abuse ooth them and plaintiff in the grossest language in presence of his children, rendering his home unfit for them and a place of misery to himself. He returned to Washington in September, when she conducted herself Doth in public and private so as to bring plaintiff into scandal and to make bim and his domestic affairs the subject of serious comment and criticism, to his great injury and mortincation, in tnis, tnat aeiendant, clandestinely and without his knowledge or consent, did repeatedly, alone and in the company ot her acqnaintancesuip and unknown to plaintiff, enter public restaurants and saloons la Washington and arms: intoxicating liquors to excess.

Plaintiff also aves that defendant, as he recently discovered, was in the habit of taking opium to excess, and tbat upon a re cent occasion she returned to his house under tbe influence of intoxicating liquors, and in the presence of bis daughter Gussie. made an unseemlv exhibition of herself, spurning bis request to re tire to ner room, ana trampling on nis leeiings in utter abandon. While thus intoxicated she re verted to her dislike for plaintiff and his children, and especially Gussie, wbom she rushed noon with threatening fnry, necessitating his interference; also that defendant's violence attracted the attention of neighbors so that be ordered his daughter to leave home. He sent her to the family of Senator Vest of Missouri, and that he, in utter despair of tbe conduct and reformation of defendant, and out cf self-respect, felt constrained to quit ber society, which he did then and there.

The failure of the Mechanics' National Bank, announced today, is the greatest disaster of tbe kind that ever hap- pened in this city. The bank was supposed to be one of the strongest in the State and bad tbe un limited confidence of business men. The stock sold a few days ago at 185, and invariably paid 1 4 per cent, dividend of late years. The presi dent and directors were among the foremost business men aud the bank was the depository of trust funds and business firms and city and county funds. The bank building is located on Broad street, near Market, and next door to the bank of which Heddon, now In State prison for embezzlement, was cashier.

The bank for years has been managed by tbe defaulting cashier, Oscar L. Baldwin, as tbe president, Joseph A. Halsey. long since retired from active business. Mr.

Halsey is nearly 80 years old and feeble. Tbe paying teller is a brother of the cashier. Undoubtedly several of the best business firms and manufacturers in this city are, involved and perhaps some in New York. Tbe officers or tbe bank: and those encaged in tbe investigation are very reticent, but the tacts can be concealed but tor a few hours. The defalcation is far more than (2,000,000 and may reach while contingent failures and losses can as yet only be surmised.

The borrd of directors Included George A. Halsey, a member of tbe Republican National Committee and a prominent politician; Lewis C. Grover, president of the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company; William Clark, the bead ot Clark's thread works; Joseph llensler, a wealthy brewer; Colonel Wright, a millionnaire, son of the late United States Senator Wright; Stephen H. Condict, a millionnaire, and many others. Baldwin, tbe defaulting cashier, is the son of Caleb Baldwin, and entered the bank as a boy.

He was made assistant cashier In 1852, and about nine years later was promoted to tbe place be has since occupied. He was a prominent member of society, and An Active Charch Member, and while the bells of the church of which he was a member were calling the people to worship yesterday, Baldwin, with pallid face and streaming eyes, was before the board of directors' special meeting, a few hundred yards awav, confessing he had embezzled over $2,000,000. His relatives and friends include some of tbe most prominent people in New.irk. His salary as cashier was S7000. From the special meeting Baldwin went to bis borne completely prostrated, retiring to bed, where be was arrested a few hours later upon tbe following affidavits: Anthony Q.

Baldwla's Statement.

By previous arrangement, at 6 o'clock this afternoon United States DlstrictiAttorney Keasby appeared at the residence of Cashier Baldwin to receive from him a voluntary statement concerning tbe defalcation. Mr. Keasby repeated the statement as follows: He as long ago as 1873 beiran to make Irregular loans to C. Nugent Co. Such loans were maae without security and without tne sanction of the directors.

Having once begun, be felt himself in Mr. Nugent's power and continued to make further loans from year to vear, sometimes as much as 950,000 a month. The amount swelled to such proportions that he could not recede unless be taced instant ruin and ex posure. He allowed Nugent to draw large sums and hoped to replace them In the regular course of business. Nugent assured him that the firm had a large amount of property in bonds and real estate and would make every thing good, Nugent was aware that and that the minumum sentence under the United States law is five years' imprisonment, with corresponding flues.

The maximum penalties vary according to tbe crimes under which conviction is secured. Examiner Shelly says he was shown a letter a year ago purporting to come from the New York bank, admitting the indebtedness. This letter is now believed to be a forgery. Wild rumors are iu circulation of every conceivable description. One is that a clerk who was cognizant of the state of affairs baa fled, and another that Baldwin is demented and bas mairnitied the amonnt of his embezzle, meiit.

The former is probably untrue and the latter is disproved by Bank Examiner Shelly, who says that a partial examination only indi cates to him that the deficiency will not be less than $1,000,000 after the stockholders have made up their deficiency. It is said that some of the property of prominent stockholders has already oee'n attached. George A. Halsey and oth'Ts of the committee who went to Washington la night have just returned and Bay that the cu.jptroller of the currency will appoint a receiver wlien be has official information of the insolvency of tbe bank, which information must come through the report of the examiner. Mr.

Halsey bays the directors own only one-fifth of the entire stock aud that he cau say for the whole board that none of its members is a debtor for any loan and their only connection with the bauk has been as depositors and directors. OXE OF Till: Sl'FFEKERS. Bow ss New York; Bank; President Ex plain. Baldwin. Defalcation How the Newark Bank; Did Business.

Special Despatch to The Boston Globe.) New i'okk, October 31. Mr. Benjamin B. Sherman, president of the Mechanics' National Bank of this city, throutrh which the broken bank of Newark did its New York business, dis cussing the failure with your correspondent, made the following statement: We owe them nothing; they owe us over We bavo paper which we cashed for them in the nature of hills receivable to the lull amount of their indebtedness. The Newark Bank did a discounting business, and the paper we cashed for tlitm is paper they cashed lor their customers.

Most, if not all ot it, is not due yet, and examination shows that it is probably all good. That is we can, we believe, collect all we loaned on from tbe makers of the paper." "How is It possible for the cashier of a bank in a place as small as Newark to embezzle as much as $2,000,000 and not be found out for three years?" was asked. "It is not possible at all," replied Mr. Sherman. "He didn't do anything of tbe kind.

See here; tbe capital or tbe bank is its surplus, some its deposits, about $2,000,000. He would have had to steal all the capital, all the surplus and over 91,000,000 from the deposits. It couldn't be done, and it was not done." "How did the thing happen, then?" "Well, they've been doing what they ought not to have done. What makes me say this is that for a long time past tbe bank has been hard up, very hard up, and hard up in the midst of the best of times; aud with a deposit cf $2,000,000. If they were doing right, they should not have been so hard up that tbey had to come over here constantly tor help.

asked Fisk and Hatch tnis morning if Baldwin had been speculating, and they said not to their knowledge. No one seems to have suspected that he had been, and if he had, as he says, used $2,000,000 in speculations iu this street the tact could not have been concealed. The speculation was not here, or at least all of it was not. The trouble bas been over there. Our cashier is over there now making an investigation, and what I say is based on what he has re ported thus far." LOCAL LIXEil.

Cbolhar. Crown Eleven representatives of the Ann Arbor University came East to test their strength against New England's largest college.

Tbey have found out that though their catalogue may show more names, the bearers of those names cannot sho-v as much skill or strength as the picked men of their Cambridge rival. But to give them their due it must be acknowledged they played a strong, pretty game, and, had tbe circumstances of field and weather been different, Harvard might not be able to say today that tbe East has beaten the West. The Michigan giants have yet to meet Columbia and Princeton, and tbey may still go borne victorious. The game itself was played in a most disagreeable drenching rain. Perhaps a hundred spectators occupied the grand stand, and twenty or thirty more hung round the edge of the field, sacrificing comfort and dryness to their interest in the game.

At 3.15 tbe ball was kicked off, aud straightway tbe Harvards rushed it down to their opponents' goal. Within rive minutes by a pretty rush Cabot secured a touchdown, but it was decided against hiin on account of a foul. Within a minute or two Thacber, who did some of the best work of tbe day. secured a touchdown, which, after some discussion, was allowed. Edmands tried for a goal, but failed.

His failure was excusable, for tbe ball was so slippery that even the redoubtable Keith would have been lucky to secure it. Tbe latter, owing to an accident in the Britannia game, could not play. Mason also was out of tbe field, not having recovered from tbe accident in tbe Ottawa game. After this touchdown neither side scored anything, and neither. made any safety touchdowns.

The Michigan men were fully awake by this time to what tbey bad to do, and bending to the wotk got tbe ball down to tbe other goal and kept it there. The half hour was over before their efforts could accomplish anything. Tbe usual two three-quarters was by agreement shortened to two halves on account of the rain. In the second half the white-clad, or rather the mud-clad, Westerners kept tbe bail close up to the Harvard goal all the time. Once they were within three feet of the line, but some brilliant tackling by the Harvard forwards forced them back foot by foot, until when the half was over they were near tbe middle of the field.

During all this time it was a band-to-hand figbt between the two sides. Individual plavers lost their temper often, and much of the time was wasted iu useless quibbling. If the Micbiganders hadn't talked so much, they might, at least, have tied the game. The) Inwardness of Haslas'a Manifesto. Special Despatch to The Boston Globe.l Toronto, October 31.

The Hanlan-Ross race, for which articles of agreement to row November 21 were signed September 15, bas been declared off by Hanlan in a letter to the papers here. Hanlan told your correspondent tonight tbat Ross and himself bad mutually agreed not to row tbis year, as it was too long a distance to travel to row for only $1000. He could not afford it. "Next spring," he said, "I will do my best to have tbe race take place on Toronto bay. It is true the railway company at St.
