Donovan a Winner.
The race at the driving park yesterday
afternoon between J. C. Reynolds' chestnut
filly , Sangaraw , and J. Davis' chestnut
goldlnp , Donovan , was attended by a very
good-sized crowd , In fact , it was frequently
remarked that nearly M many people turned
out to see a single half mlle dash as wcro
present last spring at the four days' running
meeting given by the association. The affair
was a match race for $200 a side , mid at
tracted considerable attention among local
horsemen for some tlmo past , as both ani
mals are very speedy , and were lit to run
for a man's life. The day was very pleasant ,
the only disagreeable feature being a lively
breero that blow r.ithcr too forcibly from the
northwest. The track was in splendid con
dition considering the tlmo of year , and
everybody was confident of a good race.
They wore not disappointed.
It was previously announced that the
horses would bo sent oil at half p.ist" , but it
was a quarter after ! J before the jockeys and
starters mot at the half mile post for their
preliminary skirmish.
Enoch Turner came up from Maryvlllo ,
Mo. , yesterday noon for the express purpose
of riding Donovan , and Lon Johnson backed
the mare. J. T. Stewart , Colonel W. F.
Sapp and Charles Gregory occupied pltces
in the judges' stand , Theodore Bray and
Henry Meyers oillciatcd as starters , and
Charles Stownrt.nnd Thomas Bowman pre
sided over tha stop watches. Both horses
showed up well as they were given a llttlo
worming up , the mare being especially keeji
and showing a world of speed. They were
sent oft to a splendid start on the second
trial , wit h Sangaraw at the pole , butDonovan
slipped as ho got the word , ana Turner came
within an ace of going over his head. Ho re
covered quickly , however , and was soon
busily at work to make up nearly a lencth of
lost ground. The pace was sot very fast
from the start , and the first quarter was
traversed in 24 3-5 seconds. As they swung
Into the stretch Johnson foollshlv let go of
the mare's head , and she begun to "wab
ble. "
Donovan crept up , but the mnrc swerved
over In front of him , nnd ho then tried to
! > ass on the inside. Johnson began to drive ,
Imt Turner was riding for blood , nnd the
boy's efforts availed nothing. The horse
came along straight and swift as a bullet ,
and went under the wire- half length win
ner without n stroke of the whip. It was an
exhibition of the finest riding seen on this
track In many a day. and Turner
sustained his reputation us a suc
cessful jocitoy. The time was 50 1-5
seconds. The spectators were satisfied , es
pecially those who placed their cash In the
right place. The betting was not heavy , as
odds of 3 to ? C on Donovan found few takers.
It was remarked that with a different rider
on Sangaraw the result mlcht have been dif
ferent , but it was ono of the chances that are
inevitably found on the rnco tr.iek , nnd the
loser could only smile grimly and hope for
better results next tiice
Xlio District Court.
The attachment cases against E. L. Yoder ,
of Mlndun , occupied Judge Doemcr's atten
tion In the district court yesterday forenoon.
Fremont Benjamin , esq. , appeared for the
defense , and Sapp & Pusy for the creditors.
During the afternoon the matter was re
sumed , and Mr. Benjamin tried to push them
through in the absence of opposing counsel ,
but the court would not have it , and the
cases will como up again this morning.
The grand Jury was ompannollcd at 2
o'clock , and set to work. Several of the
regular panel were excused , and I. N. Boron ,
of Crescent , was sworn in to rnnko up the
required number. The other six members

Attacking nn Attorney.
Mr. Cornish , of the Omaha firm of Bartlett -
lett & Cornish , attorneys , appeared before
Judge Love , in the fenoral court yesterday
morning , nnd petitioned for the disbarment
of Colonel D. B. Dallo.v , ox-county prosecut
ing attorney , and a highly respected resident
of this city. Mr. Cornish appeared for Mrs.
Eliza D. Slack , and represented that Colonel
Dalloy , as attorney for Mrs. Slack on a
former occasion , had withheld $400 that ho
had collected for his client and illegally con
verted to his own use. This was the ground
alleged for the desired disbarment. The
mutter was an Intense surprise to every
spectator In the court room , us well as for
the members of the bar.
"H the court please , " continued Mt. Cor
nish , " 1 should Ilku to Imvo tno matter dis
posed of by the 1st ot May , us I wish to
leave then on aEuropean trh ) . "
Notwithstanding an oxporlenro of thirty
years on the federal bench , Judqo Love was
staggered by tha request for such speedy ac
tion , and for some time stared blankly over
his spectacles at the motionless Jiguro before
htm.
htm."It
"It nccms to mo , " said the court , "that a
charge of this maiinltudo must bo of consid
erable importance , at least to thu defendant ,
nnd ono that must not bo recklessly has
tened. Thu case must go over until next
term. In the meantime the defendant is or
dered to appear anil show cause , and lllo his
answer. "
The Omaha disciple of Coke and Blackstone -
stone looked In dumb surprise-at a Judge who
would not disbar an attorney without a hear
ing In order to accommodate a man witullltlo
leisjro time who wanted to tuko a tripueroas
the mighty deep , Ho nhouhleivcd his grief
us best ho could and closed up his business
as quickly us possible. Colonel Dally placed
the mutter In the handt of Messrs. Happ &
Pusoy , and his answer was tiled In a short
time. It was not vnry lengthy , and placed a
very different coloring on the matter. It
contained a full recltalof thu facts Imuliug to
thu present proceeding , unJ Is herewith
given ,
The defendant makes the following answer
and rnuly to plaintiff's petition andcomplalnl :
"Camus now D. B. Dalloy and for answer
to the petition and complaint , of Kllia D.
Slack , plaintiff , states thn following : That

Crcswell and Frank D. Lanno wore plaintiffs ,

largo quantity of land In Pottawattamlo and
Montgomery counties , Iowa , In which all the
ibovo named defendants had an Interest , to
the payment of $13,480,31 , , which proceedings
wcro begun In the circuit court In and for

and her heirs wore under a local obligation
to defend , that D. B. I alley's connection
as such attorney with defense and defend
ants In said case continued from 1SS2 until
the case was finally determined on appeal In
the supreme court ot the state of Iowa , nnd
In favor of'all the defendants , which said
case Is reported In the sixty-eighth Iowa ,
page 110 ; that said action was fully and
finally determined In the supreme court
aforesaid at the December term. 18SS : that
the services rendered Eliza D. Slack In said
action and to others at her request and di
rection by D. B. Dniloy were fairly and rea
sonably worth the sum of $750 , which had
not been paid prior to the receipt of the
money In controversy in this action , nnd that
the sauio has not been paid or settled for by
defendants with D. B. Dallcy to this day ;
that the money received on her account
through the Martha Martin note was applied
to the payment of said fees for said
services rendered In the case of
Crcswell ct al agaln&t Eliza D. Slack ot nl ,
as far us the same micht apply ; that In mak
ing sola application of said money defend
ant herein named believed hu had a right to
do so , and domes that ho actc.l wrongfully
or Illegally , or unintentionally converted the
same without just cause , Defendant now
demands that an accounting nnd settlement
bo had between himself and the plaintiff In
this causn. and that ho have judgment
against plaintiff for whatever amount may
be adjudged duo from plaintiff for his said
services us aforesaid , and for costs of this
proceeding. "
The plaintiff alleges that Colonel Dally
was employed by J. P. Cassady to take the
cute to the supreme court , anil that the lat
ter gentleman secured nn allowance from
the administrator of tiiu estuto to pay fees
for the same , and that Colonel D.illey has
received his fees from that source , so that ha
has no legal claim on the money now In his
possession. The case will not como up for
trial until the September term. Much Indig
nation Is expressed by the attorneys of the
city over the matter , and their sympathy Is
plainly with the defendant.

THK COMMBUCE COMMISSION.
It Taken Up the Case of llio Grand
Trunk Knllrond.
WASHINGTON , April 4. The inter-stnto
commerce commission to-day began its hearing -
ing in the case of the Grand Trunk railway
company , of Canada , upon the charge con
tained In the order of the commission issued
March 28 last , of violating the mtor-stato
commerce law by grunting rebates on traffic
taken from points in the United States to
points in Canada , and by charging loss than
their published rates on such shipments.
Otto Klrsclinor appeared as counsel for the
Grand Trunk company. The information ,
upon which the citation was Issued , was at
least in part furnished by the Michigan Cen
tral railroad , which was represented by
Ashley Pond as Counsel , and Mr. Ledgard
as Its president.
In opening the case , Pond said it was freely
admitted that the Grand Trunk company
has charged to largo shippers of coal and
coke from Buffalo und Black Hock a rate
considerably less than the published fVitu ,
which ho held to bo a direct violation of the
Intor-stato commcrcn law. Rischner , on behalf -
half of his company , denied that any rebates
had been allowed shippers on business origin
ating in the United States. Special rates ,
however , had been made with receivers of
coal in Canada , which wore In some cases
less than the regular tariff rates. Ho stated
that these- special rates wore plainly stated
In the contracts inudo with shippers. Kirsch-
nor contended that this trafllc , from points
in the United States to points In Canada , did
not como within the control or jurisdiction
of the intor-statn commerce commission.
The amended inter-stato comraoro > act says
that the provisions of the act shall apply "to
anycommon carrier engaged in transportation
from any place In the United States to an
adjacent foreign country , " and ho contended
tnut the propnr Interpretation of thu mean
ing of the words would bo to the border of
nn adjacent foreign country , and not "into"
that foreign country. Kir chner Insisted
that it was not within the jurisdiction of
congress to regulate commerce into another
country. It might bo very proper , ho thought ,
to regulate traillo from a point in thu United
Status through a foreign country to another
point m the United States , or from ono state
to another , but not into a forclcn country.
Ho asked ten days to lllo a prilled brief ,
which was granted.

PiTTsnuuo , April 4.-'Ed\vard Dcitz , a
laborer who resided with his wife and
family In this city , killed one of his children
this morning , a girl three years old , by cut
ting her throat with a razor , and then ended
his own Ufa in a llko manner. The deed was
the outcome of a quarrel between Dcltz and
his wife , which started last night ,
The cause of the tMgedy wai the refusal
of Mrs. Doltz to semi for the eldest daughter ,
Lena , who was living out as a domestic , to
coma homo. Doltz wanted his wife to live
out and the daughter to take her placo. After
driving Mrs. Dcitz and all the children but
the baby from the house , Deitz sent a mes
sage to Lena that If she was not at homo In
an hour ho would kill every ona in the
family. She did not obey him , and the re
fusal of the others to return probably alone
prevented the monster from putting his
threat into execution.
