SflSfiWATER MADE THE PACE Ho Oat It Pretty Hot for Three Hfnts In the Freo-for-AU Pacing. SPLENDID "SPORT AT THE FAIR GROUNDS Yo tnril r' Card W. < a Btroni : Ono nnd Every Kvont Trovnit n I'cntnro Oro.U Crowd of People Highly in- tortnlncd l > y the Itnccn. There was some grand sport out nt the driving parkycslcrJay afternoon , the like of which may not bo enjoyed hero again for many moons to come. While the attendance that of the wns n vast Improvement over first day , it was nothing like what It should have been considering the rare character of the entertainment. There were probably 2,000 people there , moro or less , and all attested to their unalloyed en joyment by demonstration with both hand and lungs. The grr.nd stand presented a lively appearance , and the quarter stretch a sea of fashionable turn out ) . Among thcso was noticed the tea-cart of Charles Sutphen , who sat with his ) wlfo nnd a party of friends behind n team of spanking blacks , manifesting the keenest Interest In the varying fortunes of the flyers. Colonel and Al Patrick were there of course , and ' 'Dick" McCormlck with his handsome pair of bay roadsters. W. A. Paxton , Mrs. Paxton and Miss Buclah Sharp vlowod the sttmtiK scone from an open carriage , as did Frank Uamgo and friend from his coupe. Then there was C. N. DIetznnd Mrs. Dlotz ; Frank Colpotzer nnd party of ladies ; Chat Redtck , Bert Cooke ani Misses Slllow.iy and Hlmobaugh ; C. H. Outon nnd party , Drs. W. A. Robert nnd W. P. Wllcox , Arlon Calm and family , Mr. nnd Mrs , Albert Calm ; Major Lew Hill , Charles A. Coo , Colonel Sharp , Mr. Webster nnd Jvllss Holslo Hughes ; H. T. Hurlingham nnd Misses Albnugh and nunyan , Salt Lake City ; John T. Uodlck and party and a largo number of other well known and prominent people. The afternoon was another admirable ono for the sport. The sky wns obscured by welcome clouds and n freshening trcezo blew constantly from the north. The track was in much bettor condition than on the open- Jug day , having been sprinkled , rolled and scraped thoroughly during the night , and with less humidity in the air some very re markable time would have been made to a certainty. As It was , Roacwator's perform . i ance In the free-for-all , in which ho scored a brilliant victory by taking tbo three heats straight in 2l K , 2:1GK : and 2:20 : , against a rattling speedy field , was something that evoked the most lavish applause. Ho is a sleek , symmetrically-built roan , and has in I him everything that he has boon accredited with. One of the Club's Innovations. The Innovation of paying the winners off In the judge's stand immediately upon tno finish of the respective events belongs purely to the Omaha Gentlemen's Hoadater club , and after each race , when Starter Swlgert would unbuckle these sonorous lungs of his nnd sing out : "The owners of the winning horses will please repair to the Judge's stand and got their money , " was invariably Booted with cheers and a storm of hand clapping from the spectators. They seem to rolisli the sight of seeing somebody paid oft , nnd' the reputation for promptitude and fair ness that the club has established by this procedure is something that will entrench it in the favor of horsemen throughout thA country , and whenever it sees proper to gfvo n racing meet It can safely count on plenty of good nags to make It interesting and suc cessful. Tlio Judges and timers wore thoj > amo as on the opening day , with the exception ot W. C. Pritchard , who held the chronometer In. Billy Hughes' stead. The "curtain raiser" was the 2:35 : trot , and It was called up promptly at 1:30. : The purse was fiOO and the entries us follows : Governor Itlddle , g. g. , J. IN.

Miss Cawloy won by a head , with Tin second and FranK I' third ; others as per summary. Time : The second heat was a beautiful ono from wire to wlro.

Illchard Mlchaclis inj'ho Chicago Tribune : The dispute about thozmHitary bill in Ger many can bo understood properly only by these who consider thoihistoric development of the relations bolVjccnj Germany and Franco and the militatfjKstWngth of the five principal powers of coiTfi'non'tal ' Europe. About twenty wars kayo'jbecn carried on ' between Franco and Ge'ripaijy and the for mer was usually the aggressor , more par ticularly in recent hfayu-y. ' Owing to the proverbial dissensions of the Germans , which only lately found expression In the splitUng of the Reichstag mto twelve frac tions , Franco was usually victorious and acquired largo strips of territory from the German empire. In the midst of peace the French surprised and robbed the city of Strasburg and the war of 1870-7l was begun by them from sheer love of glory , of fight and robbery. After their glorious victories in the years 1870-71 the Germans did not take all the stolen provinces but only the two old Ger man fortresses of Motz and Strasburg with their appendages in order to secure the west ern frontier of Germany. Slnco the ooace of Frankfort which ter minated the war twenty-two years have elapsed. But no statesman or newspaper of Franco has approved of the terms of peace. They are all clamoring for revenge and Franco has been arming for a war of revenge - vengo against Germany with feverish hasto. And as Franco is a constant menace to Ger many in the west , so is Russia in the cast. Russia would conquer Tndia and Constanti nople and all the provinces of the BalKan peninsula , of Austria and Germany , that are Inhabited by Slavs. In opposition to thcso two disturbers of the ponce the peaceable powers of Germany , Austria and Italy have united in the Droibund , whose mam object Is the preservation of peace and. joint dofcnso against attacks. FnotK About the Army. From the figures below can bo gathered the pcaco footing of the armies of these live principal powers of Continental Europe. There are in service In Russia , 781,5ir > men ; Franco , G72,20'J men ; Germany , 520,001 men ; Austria , 370,040 men ; Italy , 247,708 men. It follows that Franco and Russia have a force of 1R53,724 men under arms , whereas the forces of the Droibund amount to only 1,09.5- 039. Every ono who is .familiar with mili tary affairs knows that tlio European armies are drilling institutions in which re cruits uro trained usually for three years , when they are discharged to the reserve and Lund\volir and uro mustered in again in case of war The two disturbing powers nave in times of peico ; a quarter of u million more men under arms than the peaceable powers of the Drolound. Taking tha three years sorv- U'o for a basis of calculation it follows that Franco and Russia annually muster In 85.00C recruits more thaw Germany , Austria and Halv taken together. Thus in twenty years the former powers would have an excess of 1,700,000 men over the forces of the Dreibund , or after deducting Si5 per cent for losses , l,37f > ,000 men. Such nn overwhelming power would crush the Dreibund , and it is quite natural that the powers of the latter are taking measures to prevent this Inequality. Logical Cnnrliuluni. If it is remembered that Franco has 13- 000,000 Inhabitants less than Gorman ) ' , that its debts amount to ? a\jOO.OOO,000 \ , whereas the debts of Germany ftr6"equalized by the income from its raitrriads aud imperial domains , and that , nov l'theless , Franco has 50,000 more men under armtt. it will bo easy to understand tha utter futility of tha talk of German dcmugogucs'tfljcrat overburdening the Gorman people , , If p/Jrjmany / wanted tc keep as many men under arms , iu proportion to Us population , as Franco does it would ave to Increase its peqpo footing to 753,000 men. i tin If Germany falls to Increase its fighting strength at this time. It will succumb in the next great war and tliqecman ( boor phlloso Chora who are now denying to tlio father vnd an additional oxpensodf 80 cents a year per capita will then bo1 obliged to pay a thousand times that niftoimt , to the Cossacks and the Turcoes , Tn , aT"fa"ct that all the federated governments J ttavo unanimously recommended the military bill as urgent should convince ovcry Unprejudiced man o : the necessity of tha measure , Germany will clttior have to keep pace with the warlike preparations of her neigh bora until all the nations , weary with the areat burden of militarism , shall consent to disarm , at least partially , or else it must give up Its independence and surrender to the French and Russians for bottoror worse Kcachlujp Out.

Considerable excitement ias been caused by the decision of the court of cessation on the appeal of Charles Do Licsscps and the other dofoudents convicted of fraud in connection with the Panama canal. The court handed down a decision today quashing the sentences on the ground that the statute of limitation covers the offense charged and that the indictments on which the prisoners were tried were Ir- reeular. In consequence of the de cision M. Eiffel was at once liberated from prison. Charles do Losseps , who is now in the St. Louis hospital suffering from acute dyspepsia , was informed that ho was free , but ho was too ill to leave the hospital. The following were these convicted : Ferdi nand do Lesseps , his son Charles , Marius Fontaine , Henri Cottu and Gustavo Eiffel.
