WASHISOTON BUIIKAU OP THE BEE , ] dit ; FouUTEKNTII STHKET , > WA'irtsoTON , D. C. , March 5. I / few comparisons between the second end inauguration of Grover Cleveland as president , and the quadrennial ceremonies preceeding. suggest themselves. In the first place tht-ro was noticeable a distinct lack of enthusiasm on the part of the crowds that fringed tlie line of march of thu parade and which thronged the plaza in front of the capitol This might in part bo attributed to the weather , for it would naturally bo dif ficult for any democrat , oven under the stimulus of liberal quantities of uubottled enthusiasm to shout his Joy In the face of the biting northwester. It is true that the day was exceedingly cold and raw. and the suffering crowds who shivered for hours upon open observation stands were in constant piril of contracting pneumonia. But the temperature would not alone count for the undeniable absence of spirit und vim that characterized both the parade arid populace. Four years ago , when President Harrison was inaugurated , the weather was far more disagreeable in Washington than it was yesterday. 'Ihena drenching rain storm , impelled by a lashing krc zo , descended upon the city in lloo.ls . all lav long Then the crowds hero were not only far greater In number than yesterday , but the storm. howe\er it might drench their bodies , utterly failed to dampen their enthusiasm. The crowd in the plaza yester day which listen ? 1 to Mr. Cleveland's in augural address was largo , but the ono that stood there four years ago with patient fer vor for hours looked like a sea of umbrellas , stretching far beyond the limits of the plaza itself , although that is twenty acres in ex tent , and crowding far to the rear the military escort of the president. The shout that greeted Mr. Cleveland's appearance u ] > on the platform yesterday was loud , but it would have been absolutely drowned by the tremendous , overwhelming nnd long continued roar of delight that defied the rainstorm and greeted with frantic Joy the return into power of a republican presi dent. 1'our Yeiirs Ago. Four years ago , despite the tempest , it was dilllcult for any ono not already pro vided witli a scat upon a stand or with some other point of vantage to obtain oven a gllmpso of the procession that followed Gen eral Harrison from the capitol to the white house. Yesterday it was perfectly easy for any ordinary pedestrian to find standing room on the curb , even at the most crowded portions of Pennsylvania avenue. All these comparisons will apply equally well to the inauguration of eight years ago. The 4th of March then was a bright and beautiful day , and the triumphant democ racy , which was not yet acquainted with Grover Cleveland and which had yet to learn his unknown j > oliclcs ns to thu distribution at patronage and as to legislation , flocked to Washington from all parts of the country and greeted tlio first democratic president since , the war with a noise and vehemence which , if disorderly , was at least Joyful. But there was none of this element in yes terday's demonstration. It seemed to bo perfunctory. There was no hear tiness in the civic part of the parade , especially among the political clubs , and , notably , the great Tammany delega tion which marched with a noticeable air of dogged determination , as if it had como to Washington because it had been ordered. The air of the marching men was that of ' jieoplo who were doing their duty , not that of victors celebrating a triumph. Both four I. and eight years ago , on the other hand , the 1 'visiting clubs had flaunted their banners in I .tho rain and In the sunshine and marched 1 with Joyous stride and exultant mien. Yes- ftcrday thcunarchlng clubs acted as though they wcro making public profession of their faith In their party principles , rather than expressing their personal devotion to u political chief. Disappointing ni n Spcetiiele. The parade Itself was a disappointment as a spectacle. The military portion would i have been almost n positive failure had not the militia of Pennsylvania , Now York , Maryland and Virginia attended IE such largo numbers. Many military organizations from other states , which had been expected , did not put ir an appearance. From tlio civic part of the parailo were also missing many party clubs whoso appearance had been heralded. There was pot In the line a single democrat club as a body from beyond the Mississippi. The spectators , too , looked ou with seemingly languid interest , and some civic organizations and clubsdld not attempt to keep up an organized appearance. Some of them could not bo found at their head- Suarters as , for Instance , the one from In- ian.apolis. As to the size of the crowd , the accuracy of a comparison of impressions separated bj four years of time might be doubted wcro it not for the fact that the agents cf the two principal roads entering Washington , wlu have had charge of the bulk of the trans jxirtation. agree in saying that not mud more than half the people came hero that wcro expected , and that the aggregate mini bcr of visitors to Washington yesterday , al though sufllcicnt to tax somewhat the carry liiff capacity of the railroads und boardlm , house accommodations and to slightly dis arrange the regular course of traffic , was fai less than either four or eight years ago while It also fell even farther below th number of those who visited Washlngtoi last fall at the time of the reunion ot th Grand Army of the Republic. Itumilitf ; U'ldo Open. There is always of course some disorder and drunkenness Inevitable to the collection of so many thousands of people. But the quantity of liquor consumed in Washington yesterday and today must have been enormous. Judging from thn outward evidence of its effect. Arrests for drunkenness in Washington are usually Infrequent , but last night and tonight the station houses are llllcd with involuntary lodgers. The law of the District forbids the sale of liquor after midnight and on Sunday , nnd this law is ordinarily qulto closel.\ observed and rlgidb eniorced. Practically all of the naloi'iis ' of the town , however , have been co-it in uousb open for the past two days , without reference to the hour , while todav there has been no pretense of observing tlio Sunday law. More than this , the beer gar dens , which have been closed fur months , nre in full blast this Sunday nlfht and as your correspondent writes this dispatch ho can hear the bang , bang , bam ; of the guns and the ringing of the bells \\hcro the "bullseve" is hit in the shooting galleries in tin ? \cry heart of the city , two blocks fivm tlie white liouso and a block from tlio Foun dry Methodist church. The "elements" of the town appear to re.Uize that President Harrison's administration is at an end and tlii'j are Introdu.-ing "life.on the bowery. " t'liiM'liintl'ii I'lrnt Day lu ( Mllee. President Cleveland's first day in the white house has been devoted to recovering from the ardent efforts of yesterday. Robust as he is. the exposure of delivering his. In augural addivs-s in front of the capitol yes terday In a cutting wind with a bared head was toi much for him. Added to that was thutlrv-somo review of the parading thou- Ran Is who tramped past the stand befoie the wlil'1 house for live lotip hours. The ride from 'he capitol to the white house was also a trying ordeul The air seemed wet with thcsuuu and whin the wind ca'ight ' the oc cupants of the open barouche fairly there ivi > . n su rl of snowflakcs and ramdropj , which At- time * almost obscured the carriage from view. President Cleveland was so nearly exhausted by those ordeals that ho went to the Inaugural ball against his better Judgment , nnd did so only because ho did not wish to dlsnpiwlnt the thousands who had set their hearts uiwn soring him there. Naturally , therefore. Mr. Cleveland found himself sti.T and sere today. He had a cold and his voice was tin sky. He said that ho could feel every Joint ami muscle in his body , and they seemed to bo creaking. MM. Cleveland also felt the effects of the arduous duties and terrible exi > osure of yesterday. The now executive slept until a late hour. The nvenuo wan loud with the music of de parting regiments , and , despite the Sabbath day the white house grounds were noisy with the thousands of tourists who tramped under the portico and pressed their noses against the windows of the mansion. The big front door , of course , bore Its usual Sun day legend : "Closed. " Many hung around the building hour after hour hoping that perhaps the bright sunshine and the gay appearance of the streets would tempt the president to take a drive or. perhaps , to catch a glimpse at some window of Baby Ruth. The executive household breakfasted at 10 o'clock , and then it was concluded not to at tend church. As a matter of fact every Presbyterian church In the city which may become the personal ono of the present ad ministration was crowded to.lay , anticipat ing the president. Judge ( iroHhini CulU on tlio I'rosldi'iit. At 11 : ! ! 0 o'clock Judge Gresham went out rom the Arlington to the white louse. Ho vas the first visitor of Importance Mr. Jleveland had seen since ho became presl- lent and , moreover , it was the first time he i.ad met Judge Gresham since he was ten dered the state portfolio. The president mil Ills premier talked for half an hour and ludgo Greaham accepted an Invitation to re- naln to lunch , where Judge Gresham was enabled to greet Mrs. Cleveland. Judge "iresham returned to the white house at " : ; ) this evening presumably to discuss the nore important foreign missions and inter- uitional matters which will nt once com- nand the attention of the present ndmtnis- .ration. The extra session of thf-scnate will last only long enough to receive such nomi nations as the president may send in , and it is desirable that the more important ques- .ions shall be handled quickly In order that the senate may disband. The Hawaiian ireaty of annexation too is still pending be- the senate for action. At a o'clock . Mr. Cleveland ordered the white house brougham brought around to the rear exit , % vhero he and Mrs. Cleveland entered ten minutes after and drove out Connecticut avenue and around through the lorthwcstern part of the city , where both : he president and Mrs. Cleveland gazed with istonishinent at the magnificent residences .hat have sprung up there since they left the white house four years ago. * Some Pretty Ciotuine * .

Brooke for the admirable manner in which ho commanded the regular troops In the parade yesterday. The general has also been shown marked respect by prominent public men during his stay here. Today the Washington Post prints a splendid picture of General Broolco ns ho appeared In the parade , mounted , and In his full military habiliments , and accompanied it with a sketch of his armv life.

But when ho was recognized a shout went up and down the line on both sides of tho.avenue that must have made the picturesque slayer of bisons fancy that ho was once more surrounded by the Pottawattamies.

The senate of the Fifty-third congress will assemble In special session tomorrow at noon. Usually those special sessions are perfunctory and formal , the business being confined to the re ception of nominations , beginning with the cabinet nominations and winding up when the places within the gift of the chief execu tive of first grade importance , such as the heads of departments of governmental ser vice and the foreign ministries arc tiled , but because of tne peculiar conditions of affairs so far as the composition of thu senate itself Is concerned , with the doubtful standing of the senators who hold appointments from the governors of their state , instead of creden tials Issued by the legislatures and , further , because of the announce , ! intention of Senator Stewart of Nevada to precipitate a silver discussion by the introduction of a resolution of inquiry , directed to the new secretary of the treas ury , It may bo that this special session will assume a degree of imporuinco and exeito such popular Interest as has never been be fore witnessed in such cases. It is probable that in the early part of the week the sena tors of both sides of the chamber will hold caucusses to determine upon lines of party policies to decide what shall be done in ro- spcct to tlio organization of committees and of tlio numerous force of senate employes.

WASHINGTON. T ) . C , March 5. The silver atitl tariff questions , tlio anti-options bill titul the reduction of appropriations were -tlio leading topics of cousiJeration by the Fifty- second congress , which expired by constitu- ttonal limitation at 12 o'clock noon yester day , and secondary only In Importance to these matters were measures relating to the World's fair , equipment of railroads with automatic ear couplers , national quarantine and Immigration. Bjrlngssa and Hawaii in atmox.ition. Nothing of nu alllnnativo nature , except to prevent two items In tin Melvinley bill taking effect , was actually accomplished so far as respects silver , the tariff or anti-options , the action taken on such of these questions in onu branch of congress being negatived by the action or non-action of the other branch. The result of the agitation of the necessity for a retrenchment of ex penditures is not apparent in any consilcr- able change in the aggregate appropriations carried by thu national supply bills , for thev amounted to about as miieh in the Fifty- llrst congress , laws on the statute baoUs preventing some large reductions , which otherwise possibly woull have been made. While the decreases which it was Impossible to effect \voro offset by increase 1 appropria tions for pensions anJ rivers nnd harbors. The condition of tin * public treisury , how ever , though it did not result in the Fifty- second congress going below the billion dollur limit , undoubtedly influenced legisla tion to a considerable extent and prevented tlie authorisation of many new expenditures for improvement of the public services , for public buildings , piymcnt of claims and for other purposes. A notable Instance of the operation of this influence is seen In t.ho fact that not a public building bill passed the nouso , and it was only by putting a number of them on the sundry civil appropriation bill that any authorization for public build ings was ever secured. Tho.MUrr QiieHllin. The silver question was kept steadily be fore the attention of eon ross by the alter nate efforts of the advocates of five coinage and of the repeal of the Sherman law. The coinage committee of the bouse In the first session reported a free coinage bill which , after an exciting debate , was saved from defeat by the casting vets of the speaker , but was afterwards filibustered to death , the friends of the bill falling to secure the signatures of a muiority of the democrats tea a petition asking for a cloturc rule in its be half. The senate then passed a free coinage bill , but when the free silver men renewed their light in the house they were outnum bered by fourteen votes and , of course , failed. The anti-silver men met a similar fate in their efforts to secure a repeal of the present law , the senate refusing by a de cisive veto to consider it. and the house kill ing the Andrew-C.ite bill by declining to vote , so as to give its friends the parlia mentary right to have cloture on it , without which it eoncededly could never bo forced to a vote in the closing hours of the con gress. On Turin' Isiucs , On the tariff the dominant party in the house adopted : i policy of attacking the Me- Kinley bill in detail , largely for political reasons and partly for the reason that , In view of the political complexion of the senate - ate , it was practically out of tlie question to puss a general tariff revision bill through the senate , while spacial measures might stand some show of passage. The result was the enactment into law of two bills continuing block tin on the free list and Hue linen at 35 per cent ad valorem. Under the McKinley bill large duties were to take effect on these items In the near future. Other separate bills were passjd through the house only to be pigeonholed in the senate as follows : Free wool and reduction of duties on woolen man ufactures , free cotton bagging ties , gins and cotton bagging machinery , free binding twine , free silver , lead ores where the value ( not the weigh , ) of the silver exceeds that of the load in any Importation , free tin plate tin plate , taggers tin , and the limitation to $100 of the amount of personal baggage re turning tourists may bring into the United States. Anti-Option Kill. The anti-options bill passed both houses , but was killed by the refusal of the house to suspend the rules and agree by a two-thirds vote to the amendments put on the bill by the senate , the opponents of the measure maneuvering so as to prevent Mr. Harris making effective his majority in favor of the measure and forcing him at the last moment to try suspension of the rules. The pure food bill , the running mate of the anti-options bill , passed the senate , but was never able to get consideration in the house. World's fair legislation comprised the grant of $3n)0.0X ( ) ! ) in souvenir half dollars in aid of the lair , the closing of its gates on Sunday , the appropriation of various amounts for different fair purposes and tlio passage of sundry acts of a special nature and minor importance. An automatic car coupler bill , shorn of its drastic features , was enacted into law , as was also a national quarantine bill , increas ing the powers of the Marino hospital service to meet tlie threatened dangers from cholera , and an Immigration law , imposing additional restrictions on immigration , but not suspending it entirely. The senate averted the billover the Boring sea seal fisheries by ratifying a treaty of ar bitration. It also ratified extradition treat ies with Knssla and other countries , but still has before it a treaty of annexation of the Hawaiian islands. The opening of tlio Chero'.ceo outlet was provided for in the Indian bill , under a clause appropriating $ V-- > > .OJ'J for its pur chase from the Indians , SJOo.OJO to bo paid in cash and * S,00 0,000 in live equal annual in stallments. HI1U I'umed liy Ilotli llon-ieft. Approximately 425 house and ! . " > senate bills nnd Joint resolutions became laws , innking iK'iO acts on the statute books as the result of the work of congress. A majority of these measures were of interest only to in dividuals or localities , being for the relief of citizens , for the bridging of streams , for the District of Columbia , for rights of way. etc. An unusual proportion of claims bills wcro presented. The house passed in round numbers Gi" > bills of which twenty failed of passage in the senate , and in the neighborhood of sixty- ty-two bills passed by tun senate failed in the house , including a long list of public building bills , many private pension bills and other measures involving in creased expenditures. Three bills were vetoed by the president , viz : To refer the McGarrahan claim to the court of claims ( a second McGarrahan bill falling of action in the house ) , to amend the court of appeals act in relation to marshals in the United States courts in Alabama. This last bill be came a law by passim : over the veto. Sen ator Hoar stated that it had been vetoed through a misundorstandlngof its provisions. The president subjected three bills to a "jiockct" veto and two other bills failed of engrossment in time for presentation to him. All were of comparatively small Importance. Tlio pension and census otneos. the whisky trust , Panama canal and -pacific Mull com pany , the Watson-Cobb charges , the Pinkerton - ton system and Homestead , the Spring GarJ don bank failure , thu Ellis Island Immigra tiou station wcro investigated by congres sional committees , but nothing cauio of the reports submitted , Important Mi-mure * I'anscil.

Much Appropriation Legislation. There was legislation effected on ap propriation bills , the most important being as follows : Closing the - World's fair on Sunday and granting , the fair tfi,500,0'JO in souvenir half dollars : authorizing the con struction of one new cruiser , and line of battle ship and three gunboats : appropriat ing $300,000 for expenses of the international review ; prohibiting payments by govern ment oflieers for transportation over non- bonded branch lines owned by the Pacific railroads , lines leased and operated by the Union and Central Pacific , not being in cluded , however ; abolition of army contract surecons ; making the action of second auditor final on all pay , back pay and bounty claims , except an appeal within six months to the comptroller ; for the collection of rail way export statistics ; or the replacement of civilian Indian agents by army officers ; ex tensions of the contract system to a number of important river and harbor points ; the Cherokee Outlet purchase ; an appropriation of Wj.OOO for a dry dock ut Algiers , La. The senate passed on two election contests in favor of the sitting members , Dubois of Idaho , and Call of Florida , the contestants being Claggctt and Davidson , respectively. The house unseated Stewart , the republi- " "can sitting member from the Pennsylvania district and gave the place to Craig. In the Noyes-Rockwcll contest from New York it refused to follow the recommenda tions of tin elections committee that Rock well , the democratic sitting member be un seated and by a majority vote confirmed Rockwell's title. In the case of MeDuffy against Turpin of Alabama , Reynolds vs Schonk , and Grecvy vs Scull of Pennsylvania , and Millenind Klllott from South Carolina , the elections committee reported iti favor of the sitting members.

[ By Mexican Cable to the .Now York Herald Special to THU Bcc. ] A new revolution has broken out in southern Hon duras , which may lead to the overthrow of . -'resident I'onciano l/-iva and possibly in volve all the Central American republics in war. I'ollcarpo Honllla is the leader of the now revolt , and ho has started in so well that ho has sent word to his friends in Panama that success is almost assured. General Terren- do Sierra is tlio chief of the revolutionary army which Honllla has organUed , and to gether they make up the strongest combina tion that could bo formed in southern Hon duras. Konilia's first victory was won yes terday on the plaza at Cholutlca. That town was protected by a force of 1,500 men , commanded by General Matulc. With an army of only 1,000 lionilla and General Sierra attacked the forces garri soned at Cholutlca. They mot a bravo re sistance , and a hotly contested battle was fought on the plaza. The loss on each side was heavy nnd many buildings were de stroyed , but the details of the fatalities have not yet reacho 1 this city. ( ttircriitiir-nt Troops I-'orcud to Ht'trclt. After more than two hours of determined lighting General Matulo's broken , shattered army was forced to retreat toward Amopola , leaving Cholutica and largo amounts of arms and many prisoners in Jtho hands of Boril- la's victorious army. Excited by their vic tory , and determined to make the most of it , Borilla and 'General ' Sierra are now pushing on toward the Tegucigalpa , hoping to cap ture the capital and proclaim the success of the revolution bsfore the government has had time to recover from the surprise oc casioned by the hard won victory ot Cho lutlca. Success at Tegucigalpa appears to bo fore shadowed by the report that the troops in garrison there are already in revolt , having shot the officers who remained loyal to President Lciva and declared in favor of making Bonilla president. President Loiva is not at the capitol. The revolutionists appear to have taken advan tage of his absence to strike a decisive blow. He Was warned of the outbreak lit Consaya- gua and from there has forwarded an army to defend Tcyucigalpa.

Ho will remain hero until ho hears ! rom the political organizations in Peru which are supporting his candidacy for the residency. Ho will make no formal an- ou icemcnt that he is a candidate until his ur.isans in Lima advise him the opportune moment has arrived. D ring an interview which ex-President PIola granted mo today ho ridiculed the lo.urt that Chili has made an alliance with Brazil against Argentina. He said Chili had not sufficiently recovered from the effects of the revolution which resulted in the over throw of Balmaccda to engage in a foreign war , or even endeavor to further complicate the Tocua Arica question by refusing to sub mit the question to a vote , as provided for in the treaty on that subject. The Colombian government has refused to surrender Edward Ferroni to the Italian government. Italy asks for the extradition of ' Ferroni upon a warrant for his arrest issued by n criminal court on a charge of forgery in connection with the late bank frauds. The Colombian secretary of state bases the refusal to sur render Ferroni upon the ground that ho had not been convicted of crime , when ho fled from lUly , and that it would bo im proper now to deliver him to the Italian authorities upon charges which have not been established by evidence. This vlovv is not sustained by the Italian minister who Is quite indignant at the result of the de mand for Fcrroni's surrender , nnd has asked his government to cable further instructions in regard to the matter. M.

How the Orc.it I'ulntcr Worked Out 11 IB Immortal ric-tnres. [ Cnpurl ilitGl 1S3J l > u Jamti ilor.t'in ltcnnttt.\ \ PAUIS , March 5. | New York Herald Cable Special to THE Br.n.J The opening of the exhibition of the works of Melssonier occurred today. Only a portion were on view and the exhibition was a failure , owing to the embroilment of the painter's widow with his son , who refused to participate and organized an auxiliary outside of the regular ono. In the gallery of Georges Petit there are 1,400 pictures , designs and sketches. An impression resulting from a profound admiration for the old masters certainly existed that wo have no more tal ent in composition. But there never was a painter who was a greater worker or more conscientious or more respected for his art and his undoubted talent than Meissonlur. The interest in the exhibition arises from the fact that It shows the way in which Meis- senior worked. The details of the pictures how they were prepared and shipped are shown. For example there nro more than twenty studies in the trumpeter who sounds ' Vlvol'ICmperaur" in the rolnbrutcd paint ing " 1S07. " Melssonier did not paint a single button without having .studied it from all sides. His enemies say that Meissunier failed in the portraits of the two little girls. Perhaps , but it Is true that it is the only picture which docs not sound a deep noto. It proves that Meissonler , when ho desired It , could see only the cold exterior ot his models , but when ho wished he know how to put soul Into them. After this exhibition 1 believe that Meis- sioner Is superior to his great German rival. Menzel. They both have a profound respect for nature and art , but Molssione.r goes fur ther. His paintings of Napoleon I. will live longer than the Frederick II. of Menzel. It is no use to give the list of the paintings on view. They are all well known from "Solfcrno" belonging to the Luxembourg and "ISM , " belonging to Cham-hard , the proprietor of the Magazin do Ix > uvoo , up to the sketch ho was preparing when he died. But 1 wish that every true lover of art could have the pleasure of seeing these sketches ami studios. Then he would understand how Melssonier will live among the eight or fen great painters of the century. De.-itli or llyppolltu Tiiliir.

Jeforo ho had an opportunity to even chock ds top coat or bo assigned to a roonnlhc spa- ions lobby of the hotel was Jammed with un .veiled throng. IJut Charlie was equal to he occasion , and after a prolonged slego at receiving and handshaking an adjournment , vas made to the bar , where the big hnnd- > omo Britisher held a levee all the morning. President Noel of the Olympic club , with a 'orco of officials an 1 directors , was soon on uiml , and for a time fun waxed thick nnd 'rcqucnt. Mitchell had a warm handshake ml a pleasant word for every one favorei' A'ith an introduction , and no one would have mnginod that he was the man that has been icrsistcntly execrated by the American pubic - , ic for the period of a decade. His reception , vis a veritable ovation , more like an In- ugural demonstration than anything it can .10 likened to Just now. Miti'licll View * the Aroni. : After luncheon at the hotel the distin guished pug was driven to the Crescent City lubon Uimpart .street anl slnwn through la palatial apartments. Thence to the co- s'll arena on Canal stive' . , and back to the hotel. Ho expressed himself as overwhelm- ngly pleased and Haltered by all this attcn- on , and said ho would make an effort to ro- iprocato by winning the clmmpionshlp of he world when he met C'orbctt , the Ameri can champion. This was the only allusion made to Corbett during the day. Mitchell looks big and strong nnd a lit opponent for anything n human shape , but since the demolition of the Australian Klant , .loo Goddard , the other evening by such a third-rater as Ed Smith evidently is , I am thoroughly convinced that the present generation holds no man capable of wresting away from Corbett the laurels he won from Sullivan hist September. 'Squire Abimrdon is a UNO specimen of the typical English gentleman. He was ordi narily attired in a suit of light brown clothes with a white choker and proper stick. Ho talks but little , yet evidently Itceps up a devil of a thinking. Every incoming train is now bringing largo udditions to the assemblage of sports al ready within the city's gates , and the Indi cations all point now to the success of the Crescent club people pulling out even on tlio prodigious purse that is to bo hung up nexA Wednesday night for Hall and Fitzsimmons to battle lor. The Olympic venture was p. failure so far ns breaking oven was con * corned , but Secretary Hess informed mo this evening that their loss would not exceed. SJ.500. Joe Goddnrd was in the hotel this evening surrounded by a crowd of curious people. He takes his defeat hard , but blames no one but himself. IIo is seeking another match with Smith , but Smith will not have it. Ho says Goddard must po make a reputation before ho will fight him again. Ityan Ii Wry I'ut Now. I was over to the bay today and saw Tommy Ryan , Bob Fitzsimmons , Mike Daly and Austin Gibbons , anl Ryan is really the most formidable looking man of the quartet. Stripped this morning ho weighed 1CI pounds. Ho is still quite lame and could not tot into condition for a contest Inside of five or six weeks. There is still some hope that ho and Dawson will be matched , if the Aus tralian can bo inveigled into such nn ur raiiKemunt. Fitzsimmons was never in better form in his career , and is very confident of success. , but the preponderance of opinion among tht authorities down here Is that ho is doomed to bo sent after Goddard. The Hall party will arrive tomorrow morn ing and preparations are being inado to givo- him a big reception. He is gaining ground , and as I said a week ago , promises to be the favorite at the ringside. Today ho is quoted at even money. I do not see how Mlko Daly can win his- fight with Giblxms Tuesday night. He is- but little bigger and more stocky than Danny , while Gibbons is nearly six feet tall , and well ouilt and muscular in proiwrtlon , but it is a hard matter to pick the winner down hero where the unexpected is so con stantly happening.

The gentlemen pres ent were all veritable cranks on the game- and were confident of imparting enough of their own enthusiasm to make the plan n success. A temporary organization was effected by making Mr. .1. Esdailo Florence president and R. W. Taylor secretary. After some discussion it was decided to rc- vlvo the old Omaha Cricket club , making- the dues merely sufficient to pay the running expenses , which it was thouaht would rllow many players to Join the club who were not able to pay the Initiation fee charged by the former organization. The Initiation fco in , the new club will lie only a single dollar , and , the monthly duos duiiiiK the playing season , will not bo In excess of that fltrurc.
