FOR AN INTERNATIONAL RACE
Proposal fcr the Great Turf Event in thi
World's ' History.
A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLAR STAK1
Horse * from Kn lunil , All the Kttro
punn Countries , Australia and
Argentine lo Contest lor the
American Cup.
Nr.w Voim , July 17. It Is within tin
power of ono of the four great Jockey clubs h
the east to urraugo a race that will bo memorable
orablo In the nnnnls of the turf a race tha
will bo the affair of the century. The pro
posed event , says a morning vmpcr , would no
only bo of extraordinary mtoroit , but Us of
'cot on the American turf and on the Amorl
can thoroughbreds would bo strlkinglj
bcnollclal. To the four Jockey clubs , then
this proposition Is submitted : Let there bi
announced n grand international sweep
stakes , for nil ages , the weights and distanci
to bo agreed upon by a committee to bo so-
lectcd from the Jockey clubs of the Various
countries sending horses , and let the prlzi
be n piece of plate known ns the American
cup and $100MO added money. With propoi
management this race would bo contested by
the very picit of the horses now In training
in England , Franco , Italy , Germany , Aus
tral hi and America. The Argentina Kcpub
lie , which has of Into imported n number o ;
valuable thoroughbreds , would probablj
compote , and some 0:10 of the other couutric.
in Europe , Austria possibly , might sent
forth some favorite. The value of the staki
could bo greatly increased If it were thought
dcslrablo by Hxing the entrance fee nt $1,000
As there would probably oo twenty or twen
ty-llvo entries tlio purse would bo the rich
eat ever offered.
The distance of the race would doubtless
culler bo n mile and a quarter or a mile and ti
half , with the chances of its being a mile am ]
a quarter , for the drift in England as well as
in America is toward shorter races. There
would probably bo but llltlo complaint if the
Amorlwun scale of weights was adopted , nl
though that , of course , would be a minor matter
tor and could easily be arranged. There
would , of course , benoaltompt at handicap
ping and all the horses of the same ago would
carry the same weiirht , for the basis on
handicapping is that there is a difference be
tween liorsos and in this case they would al
bo equal , so far as any ono could possibly
know. There is certainly no method by
which ono could determine the difference be
tween , say Common , what Is said to bo the
best colt today iu England , and Potomac , our
most brilliant performer.
The only objection that could bo suggested
would be whether English owners would
send their horses hero. Tlioro is no good rea
son for believing that they would not. Ills
true that in the past wo have hud no English
horses in this countiy , but the cause of their
absence is very apparent. Wo Imvo never
offered them any inducements. There were
more and richer purses at homo lor the En
glish owner. But wherever specially at
tractive stakes are offered , English horses
never fail to bo amoni ; the contestants. It is
the same with eastern horses going west.
Why should Mr. Dwycr send his stable \vnst
to compete for $ . > OU purses when ho has $1,000
purses at home ! If the west offered rich
prizes , eastern horses would lill every west-
goini : car. The only very valuaolo stake this
year in the west was the Chicago derby and
half a dozen eastern colts were shipped to
Cliicfiro.
Englishmen send their horses to Franco
ano to Italy , to Germany and to Austria.
They have sent them to India and to Austra
lia. Why should they not send them to
AmcnoafAway down'in the bottom o" his
heart the Englishman believes that his horses
are immensely superior to the Amoricau-
brcd horso. Whenever our horses have won
in England the turfmen there have given a
thousand riia ons for every defeat they suf
fered. They have never once admitted that
any horse wo sent over was really a superior
animal. The reason they won the derby was
their were' lot.
because three-year-olds a poor
Parole boat Isonomy , but then Isonomy was
not good. Foxhall won some good races but
they were all accidents , moro or loss. If the
proposed race were laid bcloro any ten En
glish turfmen and their opinion asked as to
the winner , they would unanimously soy it
would bo a walkover for the English horses.
Tlio chances uro that after grumbling at the
conditions , the weights and the distances ,
after deciding that their horses were badly
treated in every way , when the day of the
race catno the best horses in England would
bo dancing about before the starter's flag.
It is almost a certainty that Australia
would bo powerfully represented. There has
been for several years past a connection be
tween the Australian and the American turf.
Australian sires like Darobin and Sir Mod-
red have engrafted tliolr blood in our stock
and there is the liveliest Interest there In all
that concerns us. They race there on tracks
similar to ours , instead of on the turf , as in
England , and they take the time of the dif
ferent races ns wo do. An American who
went out to see the Melbourne cup would not
find his surroundings very much different
from Shecpshend Bay or Mon mouth Park.

sionod by the Topokn Capital to look Into tlio
grasshopper searo In custom Colorado nw
western Kansas , imvo finished their work
niul sent In the rupert of tliolr Investigations
tonight from Arriba , Colo. , as follows :
"After a two days wutrou ride of seventy-
llvo miles , the survey ot the area tnlusloil bj
the long wlngoil locusts has been completed
and shows that the district covor.1 mi Irreg
ul'ar section of the northern part of Llneoli
county containintr about three luindroi
squnro miles. Within tulo area the two fav
orlto grasses , the range , buffalo mul the
gronm grass , have been eaten to the ground
"Even hero , however , other vegetation Is
practically untouched , not occoptlng the
numerous Holds of young com In luxuriant
growth. Tlio only Injury to any Hold crop
which has come to our knowledge Is the de
struction of a twolvo-ncro' Held of fodder
suirar eano or sorghum , only -I inches It
height.Vo have repeatedly seen the locusts
"
passing through corn Holds "in swarms with
out Inllictlng the slightest Injury upon thi
oroi ) . In several cases potato vines reported
to us as being caton by these locusts , wort
found upon examination to have boon destroyed
stroyed by the Colorado beetle , and wo have
seen no evidence tliut the locusts will eat tlio
leaves of potato plants.
"If It wore possible , which wo do not be
lieve , that these swarms could invade Kan
sas , our farmers need have no fears for the
staulo crops of the state. Reports agree tli.it
the eggs from which were hatched these
armies were deposited last fall by the locusts
which Hew into this area in Au
gust and September from the
south , and it is a reasonable
hypothesis that the present generation , upon
acquiring wings , will return southward to
ward the original habitation of thnir paror.ts ,
according to an instinct familiar to that
which was observed to govern the move
ments of the Kooky Mountain locusts in each
of the Kansas invasions.
"It appears , then , thai under exceptional
circumstances like the present , this specie
hitherto considered a non-migratory locust ,
may temporarily develop a migratory in
stinct. The Immature hoppers are" now
rapidly undergoing u Hnal transformation
and acquiring wings and it will only l > o a
short time until they will all have taken
Ilight toward the south , leaving their pres
ent feeding ground to bo recuperated by the
next good rain or two
\V'o have thus far ooscrvod no signs of in
ternal parasitic infection with those locusts ,
as was the case of the Kocky Mountain
specie. They will doubtless appear In duo
time and help to keep their numbers within
reasonable limits , should they become un
duly numerous over a largo area.
"Wo have , however , observed a largo 'rob-
bor fly' canturing and killingseveral hoppers.
About the station at Simon , the hogs of the
town were fattening upon the locusts , which
also furnish foad for turkeys , chickens and
hawks. "

Niw : YOIIK , July 17. A corrospoiidetil at
Bar Harbor telegraphs his paper thus : I saw
Senator Halo this afternoon at his beautiful
summer homo In Klisworth , which is about
twenty miles from Bar Harbor. The senator ,
who , ns everybody knows , is Mr. Blalne's
right-hand man and as close to him both in
friendship and politics as any one In the
country , spolto about the condition of the
.secretary of state and also regarding the
prospects for the approaching national cam
paign. His words have an esueclal signifi
cance in view of the fact that Senator Halo
has bten in almost dally communication with
Mr. Blaine during his entire illness , has paid
frequent visits each week to Htanford'tuul
has had the republican leader for several
days as a guest at his house. Beginning with
the question of Mr. Blame's health ho said
" 1 don't know why you newspaper men
.should coiuo to mo lor Information about .Air.
Blaitio. Judging from the columns 1 read on
the subject every day , the papers know a
great deal moro about Mr. Bluino's health
than cither himself , his doctors , his family or
his friends. "
This was spoken sarcastically , of course ,
and with unmistakable annoyance.
"But 1 should llltn "

which caused the senator to ro'nx a little.

case can bo very briefly stated. Ho worked
lee hard during thu winter and had a sovcro
illness in New York lo pay for it. Ho had
rheunmt-iu trout , too. in its most painful form.
That , however , was all before ho came to Bar
Harbor , where ho has been convalescing
steadily and rapidly. Ho has noon dolut ;
there what any sunsiblo man would do in his
place that is , taking an absolute rest , with s
plenty of driving , good wholo.-.ot.io food , and jf
regular sleep. That's all there is to It. ( JfX
course ho has worried about himself , as ho al
ways will do , but there was no moro ground
for such worry than there has been at many
previous times in his life. Today Mr.
Blaiiio Is as well as I am and will rotnrn to
Washington ready for the work ho will have
to do.
"The sensational reports which have boon
so persistently circulated to the contrary are
malicious ami despicable falsehoods , in which
the hand of Air. Blaino'.s enemies Is plainly * _ .
recognizable , I am surprised to see in it also
the hands of some of his supposed friends.
Nothing , however. Is moro certain than that
in their desperate e Torts to kill the man they
four they have ru..lly ovor-roached them
selves and made him strongorllian ever. The
public heard thosamoold tnlos.Mr. Blaine was
journalistically buriedand then they saw this
same dead man go quietly ahead and shoul
der the horcule.in burden of the party ad
ministration. They saw this 'physical and
mental wrocU'accomplishing some coups of
diplomacy and statesmanship which will ever
bo regarded us brilliant achievements in
American history.
Ile.iring all that iu mindwhen iho justice-
loving pcoplo of Uio I'nlteil States come to
tvuli/e , as they will , that all this journnllstio
uptourovnr Mr. liltilnu's health has been
tnoroly nuuiber cruel cause to worry , and , tf
possible , lull emi of the foremost nion of
his time , then there will bit such u revulsion
: if fooling In Mr. Bluii'c'.s favor that so far
from gaining anything by their clumsy - maneuvering
neuvering , his shortsighted enemies will find
that , it has cost thorn very-dearly. The Amer
ican public won't str.nd being trilled with be
yond u certain point. "
