On the Btrect the progress of the hunt wns the general Hiibjcct of discussion nnd the lack of definite Information - formation wns often supplied by street nimors and added details of the trag edy itself.

Wayne Democrat : The Democrat terms it a calf case because It bids 'air to be as famous as the scrap over a calf years ago , only in this Instance t is a lot of calves. As nearly right as the Democrat can understand the suit over the fair grounds , the present condition Is that the Agricultural so ciety Is out of business as an organize tion , Judge Graves dissolving It. The county petitioned for ownership of the grounds to which the Agricultural so ciety demurred , Judge Graves taking the point under advisement. If the court decides the grounds have always been public property and now reverts to the county , the Agricultural society , or the part of It 'that is doing the lawing , will appeal to the supreme court , and It is equally probable the county will appeal If given a reverse ludgment. The county Is represented by County Attorney Wilbur and Judge Evans ; the Speed association the parties who Induced the county to take up the scrap Is represented by Judge Evans and A. R. Davis , and the Agri cultural society by Jas. Brltton ant Wm. V. Allen , After Issuing a decree putting the agricultural society oui of business , Judge Graves appointee D. C. Main , J. T. Dressier and Gilbert French a board of trustees to take and pay debts , etc. The land remains in the hands of John T. Bressler , ap * polntcd receiver a year ago. Twenty five acres of land are in controversy and three acres , comprising the eas end of the track , are not , so that when the county , at the end of years of expensive litigation , gets the grounds if it does will be little bet ter off , unless It be In experience. As there are good , staying fighters on each side , the Speed association and the Agricultural society , it Is decid edly difficult to conjecture whether the people now living will see an end on't , but In the meantime the taxpay ers will have to foot the bills of the fiddler.
