The last meeting ol the Nebraska Trot
ting and racing Horse Breeders * association
held In tills city was almost n. failure , al
though there were Bomo very promising and
Bpecdy horses In attendance. The same Is
practically true ol the races at the state
fair , and horsemen ol this state have had
reason to find considerable fault with the
condition of light harness racing In this
Btatc , which has several record winners to
Its credit. With a view of ascertaining the
opinion of some of the more prominent horse
men of the slate regarding the conditions
under which successful rnco meeting might
bo assured , letters were written to them.
II. S. Heed , editor of the Western Hetourccs
a horse paper , and a director of the State
Breeders' association , writes In reply : "The
flrst question In the letter regarding the
best location In the state for B
rollo track Is a delicate one to
ans-ncr In an Omaha paper , providingof
course , It Is our opinion there Is n better
place for racing tnnn Omaha lias pi oven
heraelf to be. It might be considered oy our
friends of the metropolis os rank heresy to
nay aught that \\ould detract from the paper
reputation of that stirring metropolis n * a.
racing point , in fact , to Intimate In an Omaha
paper that nnother point saveOmnhu. . pre
sented better reasons for the existence of a
mile track would be liable to brlns upon the
he-ad of the writer the censure ol nil people
who arc not absolutely fumlllar with fuels
on this duistlon and who take It for
granted that under favorable circumstances
Omaha would be a desirable racing point.
To make ouch a statement , however , would
be wan-luff wllh the facts as presented by
latter day demonstrations. In nil reason , n ,
llrst-clan.H trad : at Omaha or Lincoln should
prove- great boon to the racing Industry.
Of course , the simple fact that a mile track
Is In existence la not enough to encourage
the sport nnd bring out those elements
which breeders and Interested horsemen
arc desirous of having brought out , that thu
Industry ns n whole may receive substantial
benefits. A simple mile cour.se Is not enough
to encourage the sport nnd the Interests of
the. light harness horse can lag , falter and
ille over u mile track as easily as they can
over n half mile ring , such as Omaha has
nt the present time. The question as pro
pounded means , if It means anything , at
what point In Nebraska -would harness rac
ing prosper best under favorable clrcum-
Btances , and In discussing that question It
Is well for all to undeistand what favorable
circumstances arc. First , the track must
be built upon scientific principles , and after
It has been constructed , must be woikea
In nn Intelligent manner by one well posted
In such work , nnd when racing day appears
It must bo lit for the kings and queens and
prospective-record breakers to achieve dis
tinction over. After the track Is in nn Idea'
condition , comfortable stables erected , com
modious nnd well arranged amphitheaters
built , nnd all of the surrcundlngH made to
correspond with the perfection of the track ,
It then becomes necessary that some mnn
or a party or men blessed with enterprise ,
energy nnd ambition , to say nothing-
amply flnnncl.il backing , should assume con
troi of the property nnd make It a business
to conduct It In such a shape that the horsc-
mon of the I'nlted States will be attracted
In such n manner that they will bring this
Jscbrnska rnce course such a Held of horses
ns will draw visitors not only from our
own good Rtnte , but from the horse centers
of the entire western -world. The narrow.
constricted , penny wise nnd pound foolish
policy that Is so liable to mark the career
of public enterprises of this character wll
bring. It not disgrace , oblivion , to nny race
track. Liberal purses must be offered'
strict Integrity and honor must character
Izc even" action ; llbernllly rather thai :
parsimony must characterize every step o'
this association. Hence , It may be Inferrei
by what wo have already said , that th <
best place for a mile track In the state o
Nebraska Is nt that cltvwh'ph will pylnc <
the m Bt enthusiasm , put Into 111 i o t'ollo t'-
best djiree of ability , and Is willing nn
anxious to make both renown and wcaltti
out of thiH paitieular enterprise. If Omahi
will conduct a race meeting on this hlffl
plane there Is no question concerning th
outcome. The snme can be said -with equa
truth In relation to other cities In the state
On no other plan can success that Is wort" ,
having be attained.
"The next question Is , 'What Is your opin
Ion of Nebraska as a producer of fine trot
ters nnd pacers nnd of horses In general ?
Our opinion of Nebraska ns a producer o
trotters and pacers Is founded on facts. nn <
Is not nn opinion , it Is knowledge. Ther
Is no section of the union that is achlevin
{ inch reputation or bus made such rapl
Strides in the Unlit harness horse Industr.
Jurlng the past few years as the west. Ne
braska and Kansas are rapidly forging to
the front ns producers of grent performers.
No ( state has produced two 2:01 : performers
nave Kansas. That state produced Joe
1'atchcn and John II. Gentry. The sires of
those two great pacers are In service In the
southern part of the state. Kansas has the
distinction of producing and owning the
fastest trotting yearlingIn the world , and
the sireof that world's ' champion Is owned
nt Topekn. Nebraska produced the fastest
yearling pacer. Belle Acton , the fastest 2-
ycar-old pacer until recently , when the
great California and Colorado colts beat
Onllnc'8 record of 2:11. : It was on Nebraska
soil that Allx took her kindergarten lessons ,
and the first time she ever appeared In
public was over a Nebraska track. It l
well known that the character and cord'.tlon
of the soil nnd the climate , which nrc en
vironments of the early life of n trotter or
pacer , have much to do with the success
that animal achieves In future life. Had
this western region been other than favor
able for the development of muscle , lung
and heart power , and oil those things
which go toward making thn physically
great trotter , It is not supposed that Allx
wouid have been the champion trotting an
imal of today , nor that the other record
breakers mentioned -would have achieved
the distinction they now possess. There Is
no better region for the production of the
trotter or pacer than the west. The soil nnd
climate arc propitious ; the food produced
possesses the proper nutriment , nnd our
horsemen are endowed with that ability
Which makes success possible. History Is
very pointed on this question , and Nebraska
Is always taken Into consideration by horse
men In other sections of the world ,
"The other question In the letter is : 'Do you
not think horsemen of this state should In
sist upon having a good mile track on the
Btate fair grounds ? ' " \Ve have always ac
corded to every man the right to conduct
lila business In the manner that best suits
himself. It Is not Incumbent upon horsemen
to Blurt at the state fairs unless the con
ditions , surroundings , and all of the partic
ulars of that event are In harmony with
their views. It Is paying too great a com
pliment to the managers of the state fair
to Insist that If they do not present condi
tions favorable to racing- there will be no
racing- the stute. If the state fair Is held I.it
we will say at Lincoln , and they Insist
upon doing- business over a , half mile ring iti
and a , mile track such as we have described ; i
la constructed and managed at Omaha , the
raring at Lincoln will bo of an Inferior
character , such as II was during 1831.while
that over the mile track In the- neighborIng -
Ing- city will be metropolitan , high class i.
and creditable alike to the Btate , the city
and the men who control It. Take for ex
ample Ues Molncs this year. The Uavles
meeting had some of the very best horses
In the land , while those that competed over
the half mile ringof the State Fair asso I-
ciation during the snme week were of the
more common sort , the kind , that we
have seen far years over the west 1-
ern rings and the kind that wa will
always see so long as the old plan Is per
mitted to rule. There Is no doubt that It
would be very much better for all parties
Interested did the state fair people have
e , mile track , present a strictly llrst-clnss
program , nnd have some one at the head
of that department that would give It per
sonal attention nnd see to It that the Inter rr
nals of neither horsemen nor association
were Jeopardized or Imposed upon. "

At Syracuse , N , Y. , on last Monday oc
curred the longest laoe tlmt has taken
place this > ear. It was the 2:29 : pace , wllh
ten starters , and six of them were distanced
before the ninth and Jlnnl heat , Duplgnno
was distanced In the eighth heat , after win
ning the second and third , and General
Wall won the first heat nnd wan distanced
In the fifth. It was a race for blood and
wns won by Ezra A , by Montebcllo , who
captured the fifth , sixth and ninth heats.
The time ranged from 222U ; to 2.31 % .
There has been ft good harness meeting
at Chllllcothe , O. , during the past week.
and while some of the- record winners went
against their marks , no new ones were
made. Filing Jib has Installed a new
kind of racing on this track , nnd has now
the pacing record with n running mate
hitched beside him. He paced a. mile In
1MH : nt this meeting nnd never mude
skip. If Jib would get over his sulky turns
he could make all the record winners hump
themselves to keep out of the wuy of his
dust.
The 4-year-old pacing rivals , Hubensteln
nnd Vnssar , had another battle royal Tues
day afternoon nt Chllllcothe. The former
won the 2:10 : pace , but the latter mftile n
new record In the first heat , going the mile
In 2:07. : Vassnr was driven too hard In this
hent nnd became unsteady during the suc

Ktliel A and Ella T. the 3-yonr-olrt rivals
had a hot battle at Chllltcothe Tuesday In
the 3-year-old pace , lithfl A. the IOWA

It was an unfavorable day for racing , being
cold and a strong wind blowing , but a new-
race record -was made for'iSew Lnglnud.
It was a matched rnce for $5,000. und thu
great black horse had no trouble In beating
the bav. The time wns fairly good , the
miles being traveled In 2.10 , 2.13U and 2:08"i. :

Warren Guy , by Prlmo , a. 2-ycar-old , won
the trotting- race nt Itellefontalne , O. , on
Wednesday , and made a recoid for himself
of 2:27'i. : In the second hent. This Is one of
the promising colts of the scas-on. and with
a little more age cnn come close to the
record marks.
tt
The racing at Hcdrlck , In. , during the
past week has been above the average. The
weather was fairly good , the track In fine
condition , and big fields of starters. Ilocky
I . one of the fast young pacers , wiis de
feated In straight heats In the 2:16 pace-
by Slrathberry. by Hoscberty , whose fastest
mile was 2:11. The other laces were suc
cessfully carried on , and the meeting re
flects credit on the enterprising managers
Phoebe Wilkes , by Hnmbletonlnn Wllkes ,
McHenry's great little Hotting mare , de
feated Dan Cupid In the 2:11 : class tiot at
Chllllcothe one day this wetk. after 13nn

The people of eastern Nebiaaka nnd Iowa
will tie treated to a gllmps-e of the trot
ting and pacing champions of the world
during the next two weeks. Dea Molpea and
Sioux : City have arranged to have exhibition
races between Ilobert J anil .Toe Patchen
and John U. Gentry , while Allx and Di
rectly will rnce against time. The pros
pects are said to be good for securing the
appearance of these horses , or nt least part
of them , at Union park durlnrf the latter
part of this month. At every point where
these horses are booked for nn appearance
the railroads are giving reduced rates , and
have agree < l to run excursions to Omaha If

BEAR DEMONSTRATIONS ARE PUNY
,
Unsettled Conditions of Truit AfTntn Leave
tliti InduitrlaU Open to Attack torT-
don AfTonln Hqtiio Until for Com-
pnrlsoiu Recovery Moderate.
YOnK , Oct. 7. Henry Clews , heacl
of the banking house bf Henry Clews & Co , ,
writes ot the situation In Wall street :
"During Iho past week Wall street has
shown no new feature ot Interest. Specula
tion continues to center largely In Industrials ,
being encouraged ! by the unsettled condition
of the finances of certain of the trusts , while
railroad shares have been compara
tively neglected. The class of largo
operators remain ccmparatle.y patslvc ,
nnd show no qbjfctlon to the bears
disporting themselves In making petty rnldi ;
nrst , because their attacks make little Im
pression , anil next -because any fall In prices
hey may effect oniytiltonls nn opportunity
'or ' advantageous buying1 , which the bulls
iccm quite ready to turn to account.
"Although there Is at present nothing out
f which to make a really active market ,
et In. certain Important respects the posl-
.Ion amounts to n bull situation. For , iil-
hough the business of the railroads has not
et returned to Its usual volume , yet It Is
till recovering , and there Is a large volume
f freight In prosp ct fur the coming months ,
nd the range of prices Is low enough to mn-
ly set off the current relatively low earn-
ngs. Besides , the amount of floating stock
> n the market Is exceptionally light , This
s remarked by the banks , who are rccelv-
ntf an unusually large proportion of bonds
.n their collaterals ( perhaps as a set-off
against rattletrap industrials ) , and n much
imaller ratio of railroad stocks. The snme
act Is apparent from the dllllculty expert-
: iice < l by the bears In borrowing stocks and
he frequent squeezes to which they nre
ubmltted. This scarcity Is naturally an
Icment of strength , and itlll more BO is
he extraordinary facility with which money
: an be borrowed on time. Moreover , there
is nothing In sight to suggest on early
change from this abundance of money.
These factors favor the bulls ns against the
' ) O.irs , and It would not be surprising If the
latter soon changed sides , so as to produce
i range of prices on which they could sell
: o better purpose.
"Pending the dullness of the local market ,
.hero Is more than usual Interest in the
ilisposltlon shown toward our securities at
Iho foreign centers. Abroad , the excessive
ease In money Is encouraging to speculative
transactions , and prices , though already
ilgh for the better class of Investments , are
Htcadlly rising. In London , the speculative
spirit Is encouraging the launching of new
corporate undertakings. The amount of nevi
'capital applications' averages over 1,000,000
per week , and for the first nine months of
the year aggregated close upon 65,000,000 ,
against 33,000,003 for the same months ot
1893. This , It Is true , Is much below the
usual rate of. new London Issues , but it
shows a quite distinct revival of enterprise
and Investment ; The home trude of Eng
land also exhibits a reviving tone , with a
strengtheningend ncy In prices. The
marked recovery of conlldence'Shroughout
Europe In the maintenance of pacific Inter
national policies seems to be somewhat
checked by the reported serious condition
of the czar's health , but It Is not easy to
see why that should not rather benellt New
World Investments than otherwise. Judging
from the tone of 'the.Londpn presf , the reel
ing of distrust , towijrd American securities ,
occasioned by the current .numerous rail
road receiverships , has begun to ubnte.
There Is more disposition to buy our secur
ities , but transactions show a preference for
the better cla fe of > stocks nnd for bonds.
As the trafllc of our roads Improves and our
general trade recovers , this movement may
easily extend to th"e more active shares nni
become the bofeis j > t something like the
former speculative movement , between New
York nnd London. The present unsettled
condition of pohtics n this country no doubt
has .some effeci upon ihose of our Invest-
menl § _ whtph "roriK Uclow the position ofnb -
"
HoIuleiBecurify"injUtjtn8historyp our legls
latlon affords o"rriajjy evidences of a com.
mon. sense result coming out ol erratic fer
ments" of public opinion , that London finan
ciers should know how to tcke our present
surface currents of political sentiment at
their true value ,
"The recovery of trade following the pas
sage of the tariff act appears to have ex
hausted Its first effects on Wall street. The
two months of active distribution of mer
chandise has sufllced to meet the Immediate
wants of the retail trade , and there Is con
sequently a curtailment of the demand at
wholesale and arc Interval of waiting until
the usual second demand for replenishing
stocks appears. There appeMH , however , to
be no real reason for doubting that this second
end half of the season will prove reasonably
satisfactory. The retailers themselves were
the best Judges ofwhat amount of goods
they could dispose of , nnd it Is reasonable
to suppose that , liberal though their pur
chases have been , they have taken no more
than their customers will want during the
first and more active half of the season ,
and , assuming that , It may be allowable to
hope for a fair renewal of demand during
the later period of the season. Wholesale
dealers , however , are making conservative
estimates UK | > n this late demand , and are
pursuing a tentative course In their con
tracts % vlth the manufacturers. They are
likely to follow a like policy in respect to
orders for the next season's business , which
Is no more then would be dictated by sound
business policy. Indeed , there Is nowhere
any disposition to discount the future from
the standpoint of sanguine expectations , A
continued gradual recovery of business
through 1S93 la counted upon , but no enily
boom Is generally anticipated. The Imports
of merchandise show n large increase , being
for the last week of September $10,200,000 ,
against J6,200,000 for the same time of 1S93 ,
This may be regarded us partly the effect
of the revival of business , and partly a re
action from the holding back of goods Jt :
anticipation of the new duties. The move ,
ment Is therefore not to be regarded ns in
any way excessive. "
HOG AND CATTI.B I'EKCENTAGKS.
Statistics Gathered by a Chicago LIve

CHICAGO , Oct. 7. The annual crop re
port In hogs , caftle and corn of JInllory

averages : On old hogs : lown , 76 ; Missouri

wheat fed hogs : Iowa , 18 ; Missouri , 18
South Dakota , 75 ; Nebraska , 52 ; Kansas , 55 ,
The report or correspondents on when-
feeding- show that fanners to a large ex
tent have tested the value of wheat ( wher
ground ) as food for all classes of stock and
are using It freely nnd deriving benefits
from Its use that ore surprising. Many o"
the correspondents who have made sclen
title tests state that ono bushel of wheat ,
when ground and'.properly fed , Is equal to
one and a half bushels of corn.
Another prominent feature of the repor.
Is the large numb4r of counties reporting
disease among hogs. In eleven states , III ) .
nols , Iowa , Mlssonrl , Wisconsin , Minnesota ,
South Dakotn.HNiflSraBka , Kansas , Indiana
Michigan and -Ohio , disease Is reported In
111 counties. There have been thousands o'
pljrs from twentys to 140 pounds weigh
shipped from Nebraska and South Dakota
Into Iowa , Illlnel * and other states , and It
Is principally nrifcng these hogs that the
disease started aad spread to native hogs.

The Evening Posl says : Today's advances
In nearly all security property rounded out
the week. The bear adventurers In Chicago
Gas had a llttlo more rough treatment ad
mlnlntered , as In this stock It usually Is , by
"Inside" Interests. But there Is this essen
tial ( llfleruuce between official manipulation
of this stock and of Sugar certificates that
the Oas people are commonly called on to
protect the price against attacks of un
principled outside bears speculators In Chi
cago. But everybody knows who are the
most dangeious boars on Sugar.

Money Murkot Rclupgcil Into Lethargy
Uurlnn l.unt Weak.
LONDON , Oct. 7. During- the past week
the money market relapsed Into lethargy.
The only probability of Improvement lies in
the Issue of foreign loans. The prospectus
of a new Houmnnian loan of 5,000,000 has
been Issued. U fid s the Chine e and Japan
ese lonns , Austria and Spain nre likely 10
Issua loans , If they are Issued the money
rates In London will be raised.
The canard relative ta an Anslo-French
dispute had u serious effect upon the market
here. Many weak speculators were shaken
out , but wary operators , knowing the source
of the scare , took advantage of It to reap
a good harvest. Uuropcan bourses were
less affected than London. The continental
operators , knowing the rumors were un
founded , bought freely In I ndon. The | > o-
sttlon of the muiket was strengthened by
the elimination of weak operators , but much
nervousness remalnn on account of the Chl-
nese-Jnpanese war , the Illness of the czar
and the petty calls on money. The closing
prices of the week were a trllle lower.
American railway securities nt the close
were better , the tone of the American mar
ket having been less affected than that of
the other departments , but showed a frac
tional loss for the week. Louisville & Nash
ville was down 'i per cent , u.nd Central 1'a-
cllio , Erie seconds , Bllsjourl 1'oclJlc and Nor
folk & SVentern weio each down 1 per cent.
Canadian Pacifies were firmer.
