Dettoit. Nov. 28. Tho roaont political cam-
palen in this city has played havoo with the
libel suits broueht by Jamos A. BandaU
H against tho Detroit Evening Xciet, Mr. Ran
H dall is ono of tho most promlnont Domocratlo
I politicians in tho city, and for the past ten
H years has boon blttorly assailed by the Newt.
H IIo has worked hard to sooure appropriations
i for the boulevard, his personal interests belns
largely at etako. He served a term in the
1 Btato Leslslaturo, and the Jtftu$ ohsreed that
his only object in coins to the Legislature was
to secure the passage of an act authorising
tho city to issue boulevard bonds. Tho News
has mado charges of corruption, and has pub
lished dozens of articles and cartoons castings
tory unsavory light upon his character.
' About a year ago Mr. Randall began a $50,
COO libel suit against tho New, based on one
I ftrtlole. and a fow months later he brought
1 another suit, laying damages at $100,000. In
I this suit tho bill ot complaint was In the snap
, ota bound volume about the size of an aver
, ago law book, and covered every, ar
'tlclo. ltoVn, -and cartoon ptabTIsbWrttT thr
iJVui since tho papor began its attacks.
, trhls ncfvdt bill of complaint '' was
. not typewritten, but was printed and pub
lished like any book. The trial ot the suit,
I which was to begin this week, was looked for
1 ward to with much interest; lnasmuoh as the
' Newt proposed to prove all its charges, while
I Mr. Randall claimed that ho would show that
' the Newt' attacks woro duo to animus because
ho (Randall) .declined to buy tho Boner's bud-'
' port by giving its editor soma boulevard prop,
rty. The prominence of tho Newt in local
, Demoaratio politics made the casa all the more
Interesting.
? Everything was ready for tho trial when
)on M. Dloklnson, tho salartod attorney for
ha Nfws.rwTote a note to James E. Borlpps,
proprietor of tho papor, stating that he would
have to withdraw from the case. He made no
gxplanatlon. but later admitted to Mr,
crlpps that he could not take hand
fn coloring Mr. Randall's ehoraoter, bo
causo tho latter had given him valuable
ss!stnnce in the-recent campaign, when Mr.
ilckinson attempted to fun the Democratiq
party, but only managed to control a wing ot
It air. Dickinson said ho would remain attor
ney for tho Newt, but could not and would not
push tho case against Randall. Consequently,
, whon the coro was called for trial, the iVews.
through another attorney, asked tor more
tlmo, which was granted,
1 Two days later EUwJn K. Conolr. attorney for
1 sir. Randall, and ono of tho leadingjawyers of
1 tlio Btato. dropped out of the oasp, "-Mr, Conoly
I was one of William G. Thompson's chlof snn
portors In the Instcomptilgn. and as such bit
lerly ussallnd Mr.' Dickinson and all his follower-.
This led to much feeling between Mr.
Oonoly and Mr. Randall, resulting in Mr, Oono
ly's withdrawal. Doth loading attorneys in
tho case having withdrawn, it will take soverai
1 months for the new attorneys to work up their
I easos, and tho libel suit will probably not be
tiled until next summer.

PENNSYLVANIA'S FAST RUN.

It was Rftaarkabt THp, Conilderlns the
Welaht of (ate Trl-aT Mllee In MtO
JUInutea, er O 1- Mites, Hour1.
Again tho Pennsylvania Railroad has broken
tho record for fast travelling between" Now
York and Washington. A special train yettcr
day made tho run from Jortey City to Wash
ington In 4 hours and 11 mlnutos, thus lower
ing by nearly 7 minutes tho record inndd by
a train in March, 1800. over, the samo road
Tho latter train carried tho "Aunt Jack"
thoatrlcal company to give a matlngo perform
ance at tho Capitol, and it brought tho
company back in tlmo tor tho evening
performance at tho Madison Suunro Theatre
That was considered a wondortul run. Hut tho
train probably didn't weigh more than two
thirds as much as tho ono that made the trip
yesterday.
It Is doubtful It any ot the rocent fast runs
on other railroads wore as good, considering
the wolght, as that of tho Pennsylvania's flyer
yesterday. The three hoavy Pullman cars
alone welghod 283,420 pounds, and with tho
100-ton locomotlvo tho train had a total wolght
of about 242 tons.
The experimental trip was made for tho do
lectatlon of tho hotel men ot Now York, who
wanted to witness the opening ot a new
hotel In Washington. Over 100 ot them
went alone. Tho start from Now York wns
at 2:30 P.M.. and aside-wheel ferryboat did
its best to brook the record across tho North
River. Tho train pulled out ot Jorsoy City at
2:4(fJi,2 minutes later than tho schedule
with Bond l'oromnu of junglnos John A.
Covert and Trainmaster K T. Mander
in the cab. to lend Inspiration . to
Englncor Goorge lloe. The two officers had
their heads bundled up as if, they expected a
blizzard boforo they reached Washington.
What thoy did expect wns to bo covered
with olndors and dust. for. tho big en
gine No. 340, burned soft coat. It wan one of
tho new models, with soverai Dncllsh foattiros
and great Otf-foot drivers. Tho Pullman cars
attached wcro tho dining car Ulyssos. 100.000
Bounds, chair car Cecelia, 13,000 pounds, and
10 observation carOlympla, U2.420 pounds.
The Pennsylvania has three drawbridges
hotween horo and Philadelphia and sevornl
grade crossings, but tho, train pulled up nt
Powellton avnuo on sehcdulo tlmo, 4:17
P. 11., although It loft Jersey City
2 minutes late. Tho run of 83.2 miles
was mado lu cms minutes, wnicn is
probably the fastest run for such a wolght of
train ever mado botwoon New York and Phila
delphia. Tho run from Jorsoy City to Bristol.
60 miles, was mado In 62Ja minutes, nnd tho
2U miles betwoen Kast RrunswlckandTronton
was mado in 23 minutes. ....
Wabhdjoton. Nov. 2& Tho special train of
the Pennsylvania road arrived nt 7:01 I. M..
having covorod tho distance of 227 miles from
Now York to Washington in four hourn aud
Sleven minutes. Gray a i errr.Bouth of rhlla
olphla. was reached nt 4:22 P. M.. and thero
was a delay of six mlnutos In changing engines.
Engineer 8. Barker Johnson. In charge of
Engine 181, took tho responsibility ot landing
sovontjr souls safely in Washington. Ho per
formed his duty admirably. The total dis.
tanoe of 227 tnllos waa covored in exactly 250
minutes, or 240 minutes from Jersey City.
Mr. W. F. Pago had invited a number of New
Tork business men to attend the opening ban-
8uetotthonew Hotel Coohran. wjth, tho un
erstandlng that if tho record was not boaten
the railroad company would pay tor tho open
ing dinner; it the record was beaten, tho
hotel would pay tho score. Tho hotel pays.
Had it not been for tho giving out ot a brako

Baltimore, Nov. 28. It is said that the Bal
timore Traction Company and the Union Pas
senger Railway Company may consolidate
and both companies ba placed under tho
Trcsldenay ot Mr. T. Edward Hamblcton ot
the traction company. Tho leading men of both
companies havo been In consultation. Such
a consolidation was talked ot soma months
ago. but tho project fell through. The falluro
of the traction company to get the City Pas-
fenger Railway's lines has mude tho Union
lnes a much moro desirable property for the
company to own. Tho Union lines parallel tho
tracks of tho City Passengor Railway In mnuy
directions, and if cabled, as will cortalnly bo
done If they should pass into the hands ot Uio
traction company, they will provo a formida
ble competitor to tho City Passenger Railway.

The Oratorio .Society, has announced this
season four cbncorts.'wlfMh'. it would scorn,
promise to be moro attractive and Important
than usual on account of the beauty of tho
works chosen ' and tholr ' rarity of per
formance, the only one of them froqnently
heard being tho HBIeBSlah.' ever welcome
old friend, lnsplret ot purest devotion. Bach's
grand mohumont of musical 'thought' tho
"Bnlnt Matthew Passion." will be presented at
tho February concort: Salnt-8aons' "Samson
and Delilah." considered tho crf dVrwrre- ot
this fascinating composer, is to be produced
in March.
' First of all. two profoundly interesting Works
aro brought' to our attontlon tho '"German
Bcqulem" ot Brahms, nnd Bchumann's
setting of tho third part ol Gdetho'a
"Faust" Those, .cantatas 4 are , absolutely
fitted to comploment' each' other, because
ot tholr Blmllar relative value in art their
sorlous earnestnoss of feeling1 and construc
tion, and. still1 mora, as reminder of that
friendly admiration on the part of Schumann
for Brahms which caused him to prophesy the
younger musician's earning greatness, calling
him tho!; Messiah ot Art." ,. , ., .
. Brnhtn's "Requiem" wos the workwhlch es
tablished, surely, his famo'ns a composer.
Blneo its appoarance in 1848. every .now com
position of his has been received with the
utmost enthusiasm and eagernoss by
tho entire world ot music .and ha
now stands as one ot the chief pro
clalmors ot whatever Is best in tho ultra-
8iodcrn soliool of writing. While displaying
. io strongest Individuality, Brahms confine
himself to systematic principles of musical
form, being always original, though conform
ing to tho most con vontlonHl rules. Unwearied
energy and masslvo strength ranik his efforts,
and it attlmcBhois formal almost to stllTnss.
Yot ho Is. on tbe othor hand, completely de
void ot triviality, nor ovor tempted away by
merosonsuous sound from stern, high-minded
Intellectuality. Tho " Oerman Roqulom " does
not belong strictly to that class of requiems
frhlch aro used as a servloo for the dead,
ts poem abounds with religious senti
ment is full of consolation for tho mourner, of
assurances of hapDinosBhoroaf tor, and closes
with o triumphant paean of joy for tho vlotory
ot saints ovordoath and tho grave. Its rauslo
is cortalnly among tho most beautiful over
penned. Ono gem of perfoct workmanship
follows anothor so noarly aliko in value that
it is quite impossible to distinguish
botwoon them. The fucnTo " Tho Righteous
Are In Clod's Hand." and that glorious chorus,
" O Death, Whoao is Thy Sting ?" are, perhaps,
most masnlllcent and lmDresstvo: but how
exquisite poncoful, and comforting, aro those
gontler, sweeter numbers, "Ulossod Aro
Thoy That. Mourn." tho sombro . warn
ing march. "All Flesh Is as Orass," and
the soprano solo, " Vo Now Are Sorrowful."
Brahms's requiem is one of tho eight very
famous requiems of the world: Palestrlna's,
1005: Vlttorla's.jl005: Colonnln'a. 1084: Mo
zart's. 1701; Cherublni's, 1763: Borlioz's
Jlosso deft Morts." Verdi's "Manzonl Re
quiem." and Brahms's "German Roqulem."
The performance last night of Brahms s work
is tho fourth that has boon given in this
country, it having 'boon performed in
187 under Dr. Damrosch's leader
ship, agnln four yean ago under Mr. Walter
Damrosch, nnd also (though Imperfectly) by
tho Ltedorkranz, about ten or twolvo years
ago. Its veryflrst performance was In Vicuna
in 1808. in 1873 It was first heard in England,
and it had a rendering in Cincinnati in 1884
undor Thoodoro Thomas's direction,
Schumann's Faust muslo, which made up
tho second part ot last night's programmo.
was put to somowhat of a test by comparison
with Brahm's wondortul composition, whioh
grows in grace and oharm with ovory success
ive hearing. Many ot the mors melodious
portions of Bchumann's work, though at
tractive to tho oar, seemed trite and
tedious after listening to tho greater inspira
tion, land in the rendering of the last cantata
thero was a lack both of smoothness and buoy
ancy. Mr. Caso, tho tenor, was quite incom
petent to do oven the small role required of
him: Mr. Helnrloh Mern .gave good re
sults. . however, especially in the Faust,"
of which his interpretation was both intel
ligent nnd tasteful. Miss Tremstad had no op
portunity for shining last evening. Miss do
Vero's voloe waft delicious in its purity, and of
remarkable freshness. Tbe lovely molodyln
the solo of tho Roqulem set It off te greatest
advantage, being at 'the same time finely
adorn od by its oxnulsito quality.
A strong blemish upon tho performance of
the first chorus was in .tho fact that tho harp,
which has an Important part to play, was
tuned noticeably above the pitch ot tho other
Instruments. This was afterward corrected,
and with this exoeptlon all went well, if not
ideally. Both compositions done lost night
are bristling with dllUcultles which mako a
perfects smooth rondering almost unattain
able. Mr. Faderewskl.
A very full houso greeted, Mr. Paderewskl
yesterday afternoon on tho occasion ot his
third rocltal. and much enthusiasm was shown.
He played Beothovon's Thirty-two Variations
and Sonata, opus 53, with that profouud rov
eronce for the composerand absolute adhor
ence to tho convcntlonahlfcjB of his style which
ho has displayed on former occasions

exquisite In lightness, as was also tho "Scher

The New Tork Athlotio Club hold the first ot
a series ot winter boxing tournaments
at tbe club houso last nlshti and It
would bavo boen well nigh impossi
ble to havo 6quoezcd another hundred
spootators in the spacious gymnasium. It
Is well known that the Athletlo Committee ot
the club had vainly endeavored to sooure ama
teur boxers, who would contest tor prizes
proscribed by the rulos. The "amateurs"
wero all after the money, however, and sooner
than be an accessory to a violation ot tbe ama
teur laws, the club docldod to havo profes
sional boxers compete for purses of $120, $100
to the winner and $25 to the loser. Lostnlsht's
show proved tho step a viso one.
The entertainment was not quite up to the
expectations of Hike Donovan and Sonnls
Butlor, who managed tho affair, but It waa far
superior to tbe avoraso amateur show, and did
not cost any more money.
The entertnlnmontnext month will include
the pick of the professional talont, and It is
not unlikely that othor clubs will follow in tho
Now York's footsteps on the out-and-out pro
fessional question.
The officials of the tournament wero: Itef
eree. Haxoy Moore: Judeos, K. W. Kearney
and James Motley: Timor. Roger Thompson;
Master of Ceremonies, Charles J. Harvey,
Jim MoNameo and Ed Murphy, both New
lorkers. wero tho llrst couple to climb through
.the ropes. Thoy woro of thu 150-pound class.
McNamee at one time hold tho amateur cham
pionship of Scotland. Murphy looked soft aud
unconditioned. MoNameo had things all his
own way. In tho fifth round tho Glasgow bor
started In to Ilnlfih thojoti, and ho did it with
threo swinging lefts.
Tho next fight was what tho enthuslastlo
club mon termed a "corker." Pat .Farley, the
Brooklyn light weight, nnd Barney Fleming
of Nowark woro tho boys that fur
nished tho fun. The first throo rounds
woro fiercely fought, being of tho give-and-take
variety. Tho fourth and fifth
rounds found the mon exhausted. The
anal round was lively. Farley caught the
Newark man two straight flush blows in tho
face that sont him groggy, but was too weak
liimsol! to follow ud his advantago. Flomtiig
llniilly rushed Farley In tho latter part of the
round and won tho judgos' approval.
A rather good-tooklnc, symmetrically built
negro and a hard-looking citizen in rod tights
next . clambered in view. The colored man
!;as Introduced as Frank Craig, Uio "liar
em Cpffeo Cooler." his opponent peine George
iroad ot Buffalo. The first round wus a bur
osquo, the. men wildly hitting the air and
wrestling all over tho stago. The CofToo Cool
er, when he recovered his wits, showod ho
could fight, and gayo a very pretty exhibition
ot straight hitting In tho second round, twlco
bending tho Bufliilonian down from straight
loft-hand loads, lio kept up his advantago. aud
lu 1 minute and 20 soconds tho man from But
nalo Quit stopped.
BUI Cablg. tho Pittsburgh puelllst. and
known as thu Mysterious llo-or," was rosur
reuted, and. rando his apjiearanco with Jim
Glynn of Jorsi'y , City, Uablg was In no
condition to ftght. nnd his .only-, hope
was to get in ono of his old knock-out blows.
Ulynn must havo boen nt least twcnty-lUo

and landed one fair and square. It noarly did
tho business. Glvnn gplng down as If hit with

fairly knocked him out.
