beautiful speclmonsof cornmlennddocorntivo
art enthusiastically, Mrs. Morton proline to bo
almost as much n devotoo of tho work nt Mrs.
Harrison. The decoratlto portion of tho ex
hibits was made up of urtlclcs loaned by well
known ladlos In this city from their own work.
It Included ono pleco, a porcelnln panol of
chrysanthemums, that was painted by Mrs.
Harrison. Of course. Mrs. Morton said it was
just beautiful. Othor people havo bean saying
tliosamo thing, howovor. evon whon they did
not know Whoso work It was.
In tho department of undecorated waros
thcro was also an ozhlblt loaned by Mrs. Har
rison, a beautiful taio of bllleok wure made by
ono of tho potteries In Trenton, and prosontod
to Her by friends In tbnt city. Tho vase Is miro
white, and stands about six Incbos high. It Is
ooplod after an old ruso found In Vermont that
was evidently a rollo of tho old tlmos when tho
making ofbllleck waro was n becrot of Irish
potters. On tho front a representation of n log
cabin and a bark canoe havo been substituted
(or tho designs that were on tho original pleco.
The Quality of tho wars in Mrs. Harrison's vase
Is said to fully oqunl that of tho product of tho
old potteries In Ireland, now cono out of ex
istence thoso mnnr Tears.
i'r Mrs, Morton fold the bllleok vaeowas jusf
beautiful, too, nnd then tho two Indies shook
hands with evorybody. Then tbo ladles drove
back to tho houso in time to moot tho stream
of lady callers, who began to como early and
kept tho front parlor in a constant cbntter all
the afternoon.
Mr. Morton and tho rrosldont elect mean
tlmo had spont a little vvhllo in conversation
Unit was presumably mutually onjo able. It
seems to have been something of u continua
tion of tho educational part or the lato cam
paign, for afterward Mr- Morton Is said to have
remarked to o friend, with on uir of having
learned somothing:
" I havo come to tho conclusion thatthls man
Is coing to bo rrealdent."
Ho seemed to havo enjoyed his lesson, whnt
si ever It was, thoroughly, and about noon ho bet
1 out with Gen. Harrison lorn walk, friends
who know tho General's ovtenslve custom in
tho pedestrian lino looked askance nt Mr. Mor
ton when the walk began, nnd it was oven hint
f edthat It might bo well to havo the eairlngo
fient to meet thorn somowhoro down town and
irlne1 them homo. Tho two mon laughed at
1 A this, however, and set out at n sturdy paeo
I toward tho city. Tliey mode a fluo-IooMcg pair
of nttiloteB. for men of their ngo. nnd faced tho
bracing wind down Peiinsslvanla street with
coats well buttoned like n pair of drum majors.
1'eoplo who axo accustomed to soo tho General
tako His dally nail:, looked longer than umioI
l to-day. Of him they sold, ns uittnl. " Tlioro
' goes Oen. Hnrrlenu." Of tho Vice-President i
lect the most common remark was. "Why.
don't ho look liko Id picture .'"
Tho statue of bcliuyler L'o'fax in tho City
Park wni pointed i ut us they passed it, and a
little further along tho frame houso on a cor
ner in which Oliver 1. Morton died. Down in
the clrclo the ttatuo of Morton was also passed.
The walk extended for about a mile into the
contre of tho city, and Mr, Morton stood It
well, reaching the house ngulu with losy
heoks. dancing oyes, and he declared that he
was not at nil tired.
I During the afternoon many men woro min
gled with tho ladies calling, and Mr. Mor
ion was much of the tlmo in tho llttlo reception
Doom next to the i nil or receiving those who
ticked for him. He was particularly cordial
and esneaally non-com niittul to tho newspaper
men. Ho chatted freely about hi trip here,
whloh, bo said, wns n pleasant ono but for tho
cold ho caught, and about tho city, which ho
ft oh inclined to liko, although ho had seen little
of It yet. and about his walk, which ho snld
was a very enjoyable one, but ns to politics
2 lie would only lepoat whnt ho said yestor
l day. that this was pmoly a social vlsdt. nnd that
H It was i mistake tosiipposo that hocamo hero
II In tho Interest of any man or faction. Ho was
H anxious to kuow whothor Mr. cjuay had yet
II an Hod in tho city, and seemed disappointed
I when told that ho had not. When it was raen
II tlonod that tbo storv of Mr. Quid's tiunday

"Yes: Iknowthathohndnotleft Washington."

Publishing Company, of which bo is n member.
Ho was arrested on Wcdnosday night on n war

tho theatrical firm of Brooks & Dickson, and is
! now managing tbo Broad Street Thoatro of
Philadelphia, was a partner of Mr. Timayenls.
Tho Arm wns turned Into n company a year

1 It is said, too, that within the past throo weeks
Lawyer William Bronk. who Is defending Mr.
Timayonis in tbo present action, has
put monoy into the concern. Tlio
house wns established for the propa
gation of Mr. Tlraaienls's works, which
included, beside "Tho Origlnnl Mr. Ja

History of Greece from tho Time of Homer."
Some of those books have boeu successful.
" Tho Original Mr. Jacobs " reached, It is said,
a sale of 100.000 copies. Tho concern Intrusted
the publication of tho works to Hand. Avory
A Co. of Boston, who fall id recently, nnd It
wns reported that a failure to pay on tbo part
ot the Minena Publishing Company was tho
reason for tho failure.
This report brought Mr. Dickson post haste
from Philadelphia. An examination of tho
books showed that the company was not re
sponsible for tho failure of the Boston house,
but that there were irregularities in accounts
which warranted tbo arrest of Mr. Timayenls,

It is charged by Mr. Dlckbon that on Aug. 2
Timayenls entered in tho cash book a payment
of J2j0 to Hand. Avory &. Co.. which, it was ;
shown, was never paid. Mr. Dickson asked
him to writo for a receipt, on his statement that

,lnnd I.eaue next Hennon-Othcr New.
President Day of tho Now York Club said
yostoidny that the story In Tub Sun nbont tho
demanded incronso In salaries by several of the
Now l'ork players xrn correct. Ho snld that If
Tiernnn could show him whero an outfielder
rocoUod more than $2,500. with tho possible
exception of Dickey Johnston of the Boston
Club, ho would pay tho demand, for ho consld
era Tlcrnan oqual to the best of thorn. , But few
outfloldors, Mr, Day thinks, evor roc'oired us
blgli ns $2,800, outsido of Goro nnd Dorsan,
and It was this hlcb salary that caused tho re
loaso of thqjatter player from tho club. Mr.
Day will sond his swornbtatemont to Pro.-ident
Young to-day or to-morrow, but ho will not
send the players' salaries unless President
Young demands It. Ho considers that the now
salary rulo is not exactly fair ns It stands, for
managers will lio able to take on unfair ad
vantage of tholr plnvers, but, with n fow
changes that aro bound to como. It will be more
just. Ho also favors a rulo that will exompt
cortaln platers.
riTTsnritdti. Doc. 13. The suit of ox-UmpIro
R. M. Decker against tho National HnsoBalt
League promises to bo more Interesting nnd
important than tbo majority of baso ball
patrons think. Mr. Decker'.! case. In all its de
tails. Is now published for tho first timo.
All tho luvuments In support of his
claims are to bo lound In the conespondonce
which bus taken placo botwoen him and Presi
dent N. L. Young of tho National League.
Tliocorrospondence is exceedingly Interesting,
ns among other things it shows the very high
opinion President Young has er had of Mr.
Dockor's abilities as an umpiround ugonllo
mint. Mr. Decker's nttorney. J. D. Watson, In re
ferring to the cno to-day. stated that It will bo
forced to on lsstto. Ho said: " Wo moan to find
out exactly what tho National Baso Ball
League Is. and whon wo havo done with
it the publlo will bo much wiser than
it Is now. If necessary wo mean to
add otery official of tho organisation to tho list
of defendants and prove that it is a partnership
concern. Tho defendants may find out what
their association Is whcnattnchmontanrelovlod
on tholr rospoctlve proporty.
The lollowlng correspondence explains tho
entlio case of Mr. Decker. He embodies It all
In his stntomont. On Dee. 10. 187. Mr. Deckor
wrote Piosldeut Young, asking if larger sal
aries wero to ho olleied Longuo umpires in
1S83, and if so. bo declared, would apply to bo
put on tho staff. Houdded that nothing short
of $1,500 nnd expenses for tho season would
tempt him to accept a position. In reply to
tills. President Young wroto us follows:

At tho request of Mr. Docker. President
Young promised to keon the matter quiet until
tbo former had consulted his friends on tho
matter. Mr. Deckor subsequently wrote u very
important letter to President Young to tho
following effect: Would he. Decker, bo subject
i to tho llkos nnd disllkos of bnse ball
i managers, becanso ho know how easily thoy
j ber amo prejudiced nenlnst umpires. He also
asked: " Is thoro in any mnnner a probability
of my not going through with my engagement
tho entiro season? if there is I will hesitate
boforo I resign tbo City Clerkship of Bradford,
whlcn Is worth to mo $1,000 per annum. I
don't want to give that up for an uncertainty."
To this President Young ropllod:
Ima Deckkbi Your favor received. Thus far t have
appointed Just two umpires, i t . yourself and Lynch.

9l.tolaudexpen.es. If any one gets more, you shall
receive more. You needn't give youreetf any trouble
about quitting before the season ends. All well Yours

Mr. Decker on these assurances, resigned tho
city clerkship, and when tho championship
season commenced began bislutles as um
I lrc Early In June ho rocolved a lottor from
resident Young, asking him to resign
on account ot protests received from
n number of clubs. Mr. Docker re
plied by stnttne emphatically that ho
would not rc-ign. He suld: I am doing as
good work as I evor did, and I did not rosign
my position nt borne to work two months. Do
what you please : release, remove, or dismiss
mo: I wilf not resign." On Juno 12 Ptosldont
Young wrote tbo lollowlng:
.Dcau Mu. DecKctt: I was In bopes that you wonld

tut unavoidable duty. Mnce i have had the duty as

Accompanying tho above was Mr, Decker's
release, President Young nromlnentlv stating,
"Ion are honorablT released." Presldont
Mmickof tbo local clubwus noxt written by
Mr Decker, but the former claimed to have
nothing to do with tho mat tor. On July 9
President loung wrote his Inst letter
to Mr. Dockor. In it thov. President
said that for ono month ovoiy
loportwas unfavorable to Mr. Docker ns an
umpire, aud that his judgment of the game
was poor. Altor referring to tho unfortunate
results of Mr. Decker's abilities being assailed.
Piesldent Young concludod: "In this respect
you aro tho gainer by your services this sea

married, und appears to be very happy.

wh it discouraging outlook. " It is too bad."
snld one with u sigh, "thut the prospect for a
New England League should be ho slight.
That, too. juntas the conditions were getting
to be good for success. Tho League has takon
, tho Initiative in n well-advised effort to limit
tbo salaries, ns far as tho futitro is concerned.
Of course, to classify tho players will be dllll-
i cult. Perhaps It would have boon bettor If tho
matter of ciitssUying tbo players had beon loft
for their dubs."
"The International League has dono this.
It has talon the bull by tbo horns nnd adonted
a salary limit of tl.'JQO, a radical depuiltiro
from tho preceding season. It was high lime;
, another season for the internationals like 1SS3.
I and It would lie good-by to buse bnll cities in
tbntAssoelatlon. With a salary limit In Now
Lucland, clubs could live and thrive. There
aro plenty of players who participated In tho
games of tbo Now Lnglund League who would

than thev received lost season, and manvhavo
expressed, themselves as willing to do so,
I Plenty of tood men can be sooured for from
$75 to $125 a month,"
"The clubs in past seasons have been so
anxious to outdo each other that they have
only hurt, themselves. A Rood eight-club
League, with a low salary limit, would pay,
and It, will coino vet. No wonder those who
havo dabbled in baso ball in those places in
past, unys are disgusted. They have paid

An Intereatlac Review of the Career or One
or the drcntent Trotting; Htalllona Ever
Bred-Hone or hla Itest IlcscendantB.
A boleffram from Jnmos II. Goldsmith, eon
ot tho. late Aldon Orildsmlth, announces tho
doatb yestordny morning at Watnut Grove
Tarm, near Washlngtonvllle, Orange county,
this Btato, of tho famous old stallion Volun
toor, ono of tho best known trotting sires In
tho country.
, This horse was foaled In 1854. bo that he
reached tho advanced ago of 31 years, and was
tho oldest litlng siro of trottors. Volunteer
wna bred by Joseph Hetzol ot Florida,
Orango county, and was sired by Bysdyk's
llnmblotonliin. when tho lnttor was flvo years
old. Ills dam. Lady Patriot, was a famous
Orango county maro by a son of Patriot, a stal
lion with considerable thoroughbred blood, and
bis grnnddam wns a maro that could both trot
nnd run fast, nlso bred In Ornugo county. Two
yoars altor Volunteer wns fouled his slro got
another colt out of Dolly Sonukor. afterwards
known as Qeorgo Wllkos. and tbeso two stsl
llons buvo about oaually upheld tho honor of
tho llamblotonlnn family. George Wllkos has
moro of his get In tho 2:30 list than Volunteor.
but he had tho advantngo ot being bred to
Kontucky maros, wbllo his oldor brother's on
tiro stud enreor was passed among tho buows
of northern Now York.
Wbcniiulto joung Volunteer wns purchased
by It. 0. Underbill ot Brooklyn. Ho
was 8 years old when Aldolt Oold
smith, at that time a comparatively
unknown breeder, nurchased him from Mr.
Underbill and took him bnck to Orange county.
L'dulu Thome, tho mllllonairo Quaker of
Dutchoss county, nssistod Sir. Goldsmith In
tho vonturo by taking n half Interest In tho
horso. At tbnt tlmo ho was nnmod Young
Hambletonlnn. but ns old William Si. Itysdylc
disliked the son or his stallion nnd declared ho
would never she a trotter," lio objected tothe
us of the pntronym llaiublotoninu.
Shortly niter his purchase Mr. Goldsmith, ae-
roimianiot! by Mr. Thorne. drove ovor to
Bysdyk's lariii. whon thoy were soundly rated
for using llnbletonian's name. As thoy re
turned, Mr. Thorne suggested a change, nnd
paid: ' Yhut shall wo cull him?" it wns just
in tho bent of the civil war. ami Mr. Goldsmith
replied: " Let tis namo blm Volunteor," and
then nnd there tho stallion was tochrlstenca.
Despite Ujsdyk'B prediction. Volunteer
stamped lilmself as a slro of merit and Aldeu
Goldsmith, win. had implicit faith in his ability.
evoted his bost oiTorts to dov elop his eolts nnd
provo them to b trotters. At that tlmo Ham
bletonlan was very potmlar. nnd baa virtually
11 monopoly of tho best brood maros In that
locality, as well us In all partH of the
country, but Goldsmith persavored against
all odds, und in 1871 wus rownrdod by
FeeiDe ,w. L ,lll Ket of Ids horse,
in tho 2:30 list. Tito llrst to enter was the bay
htnlllon llllam li. Allen, that ulterward got a
record of 2:23', and about the samo time the
bay mare Huntress, brod by Goldsmith himself
out of Lady fcoars, by Heely's American Star,
trotted at a meeting In Virginia In2:26.'.. Hun
tress was a great campaigner, nud when she
was retirod from the turf had a record of 2r20,'i,
Jlormost uotod performance was In 1872 ut
Prospect Park, Long Island, when eho trotted
throo miles to sulky in 7:21''. loworing the bost
record for that dlstunce,held by Dutchman (un
dorsaddlo) since 183'J. This wonderful fent
has never been equalled, and Huntress Is stilt
the greatest of threo-milo trottors by the
records. Auothorltrotter brodtbrlMr. Goldsmith
from his sinlllon out of a htnr mnro was the
bay gelding Driver, without doubt tho
greatest campalgnor that ovor appeared
on tho turf. Starting nbont 187C. lie beat
tho bost borsosof that timo. mado a record of
2:19'j In 1880. and won 107 heats in time below
2;3(l. Driver Is still ullvo and owned In Boston.
He was campaigned up to a counle of yearn ago.
and has not yet been retirod from the turf, ns
ho was In tbo stables at Mystic Park last sum
mer. Gloster. a bay golding out of Black Bess,
was another famous son of Volunteer. In 1874,
he trotted in 2:17 at ltochestor, and Mr. Gold
smith refused an offer of $iO.O0O for him that
year. He sent tho flyor to California in Budd
Dobles charge, and expected that ho would
beat Goldsmith Maid's 2:14. Doble had just
resigned as tho driver of the Mold, ii.id thought
ne nau another world beater, but ulostor died
soon after macbing the Pacific slope.
Probably tho most famous son of Volunteer is
St. Julion. ntono tlmo king of tho turf, until
Maud 8. wrested tho honors from him. Ut.
Julion s record of 2:11 ' is faster than that ao
nulrcd by nny son of George Wilkes. nnd stands
to-day second among geldings to Jay Eye Soe's
2:10. St. Jullen is still living in California, en
joying an easy old age. and la jointly owned by
Orrln llickok nnd a wealthy San Francisco
speculator named Morrow, who nurchased him
Irom Juraos Oalway. tbe inastor of Preaknoss
stud, forsomo $20 000.
Besides having twonty-soven of his get In the
2:30 list, flvo of which have beaten 2:20, Vol
unteer has transmitted the trotting Instinct in
succeeding generations to n wonderful extent,
through both his tons and daughters. Of the
iprmerelghtecn have sired 2::!() performers to
tho numherof thirty-seven, wbllo sixteen dams
by him have each produced ono in the fast list
At the llrst National Horso (show, held in this
citv in 1883, Volunteer was exhibited ns a .spe
