T WAS a delightful
afternoon , but the
threatening aspect
of the weather was
probably 1 n s t rn-
mental In cutting
. .down the attend-
i i'anco at the driving
I park. Whllo the
crowd was a fair
ono , It In novrlso
compared with that
of the day boforo. These who wcro on hand ,
however , witnessed flvo splendid events , ana
loft the grounds moro than satisfied with
the afternoon's sport.
All morning the sky was overcast with
lowering clouds , and a dclugo was antici
pated at any moment. Under the clreuin-
stances it was unreasonable to expect an
out pouring of-tho people. The track , wh Ilo
yet a bit ho.ivy , was a vast Improvement
over the Initial day , a fact the horses and
their mount } seemed to appreciate Immeas
urably.
Not wishing to disappoint any probable
late arrivals Starter Tuthlll did not sum
mons the quintet booked for the half mlle
dash , the opening race , until a quarter past
2 , but when the horses did appear they were
greeted by a mighty shout , which attested
to the Dent up eagerness of the crowd to see
them off.
Tanglefoot Took It.
Iko S should have won in a gallop , but ho
did not , thanks to his own resllvoncss ,
Jockey Seaman's bad judgment nnd Mr.
Horr's hip Ued Buck colt , Tanglefoot. The
dash was far from a thrilling ono. The best
horse , considering the conditions , was
beaten , and the disappointment engendered
by this was augmented by the showing made
by the second choice , Parole. Iky Strieker ,
the owner of .Iko S , was in anything but nn
angelic frnmo of mind after the race , Sea
man's ridlnu arousing his wrath to the boil
ing point. But Iko is next to unmanageable
, nnd the boy probably did the best ho was
'capable of. Tanglefoot was In ttio front
from the Jump and staid there to the wire ,
although Iko S gave him quite a chase down
the stretch. Parole third and Ilo Do last.
Tlmo : 50K.
In the second ovcnt , seven-eighths of a
mlle , Tell Tale , the favorlto.und Limebrooko ,
n 10 to 1 shot , toro off several lengths to.tho
good In getting away. .Limebrooko pushed
his nose to the fore round to the quarter ,
when Yoeman gave Toll Tale a llttlo extra
rope and ho shot Into the lead like an arrow
leaving the bow , Llmobrooko being the only
ono of the bunch that attempted to keep
him company , and ho going so slow that
Yeoman swung back with both hands full of
his horse , couldn't ' help keeping his place ,
the others absolutely refusing to bo coaxed
within hailing distance , and in a procession
they cantered under the wire , Toll Tale two
lengths ahead of Limobrooko and Mike
Whiting third. Time : l:34 : > f.
According to JL'rovIous Agreement.
The thrco-clghths of a mile was an extra
event on the card , but very "imcxtra" from
a standpoint of speed or excitement. Pnrolo
nnd Tanglefoot did n double song and dance ,
and ns they belong' to the same stable , the
performance ivus probably arranged the
night boforo. , Honest John seemed to have
n few $1 friends , but wo'iild look better
hitched to a dray than ho does in art
nbbreviatcd fly , over a heavy weightcourse.
'Hose Leaf , too , should bo sold at once to
some trick dog show or the nearest farmer to
the track. Parole and Tanglefoot Jogged
along together like two old soldiers on a long
"inarch , Guiett pulling up Parole a bit on tno
stretch In order that Tanglefoot might not
dump th'o gentlemen In the betting sheds.
Time : '
. Very Nice fllllo anil One-Klghtti.
These "Old Comrades" Harry Walker ,
Kettle S. Nellie F and Frank Clapp looked
Starter Tuthlll square In the face for the
long race of the day , the mlle and nn eighth.
Harry Walker was a prime favorite , while
Clapp. the winner , could ho bought from 8 to
1 to 0 to 1 up to the very fall of the flag.
There were but few Kcones , Dwycrs , Smiths
or Cushlngs on the track and the bookies
were exceedingly desirous of trapping every
stray cartwheel that dared show its face.
It was n beautiful gallop for the mlle , Walker
nnd Clapp. nose and nose , and the two Ns ,
Nettle and Nellie , dizzy girls that they are ,
lighting like mad for their entrance. Jump
ing from the last eighth , Clap | gained the
pilot's position nnd hold It by a head in an
exciting finish homo , Walker second four
lengths before , these rival old ladies pre
viously mentioned as giddy maidens. Tiino :
The day's card was concluded with n
dash for ilyq-oighths. As usual thoJavorUo
was a "con" gamennd again the offender
was Iko S. For a half hour ho edified and
electrified the crowd by flying to the eaves
of the grandstand , with ono leg tied behind
his back ; oy standing on his head , grating
on his tall , and executing other incrcdlblo
convolutions that the pen of a Dickens or a
Hugo would have a tough Job In describing.
The very welcome conscquenco was ho got
loft at the post , and Fred S. nn old selling
plater that used to bo on the Tremont street
car line In Boston just at the close of the
war won , by n half length , Wild Follow second

CHICAGO , July fi. Champion James J. Cor
belt Is perturbed over the rather caustic
letter that President Newton of the Coney
Island club has sent to him.
' The Columbian Athlotio club never tried
to got me away from the Coney Island ctub , '
said Corbott today. "Whllo I am anxious to
llvo up to the agreement with' the Coney
Island people , and while I want to fight
there In preference to anywhere else , I don't
see how it is possible for mo to do so unless
Judge Newton and his associates can get
Mitchell. "
New YOIIK , July 5. Champion Jim Corbott
sent tnis telegram to .ludgo Newton , match
maker of the Coney Island Athletic club in re
sponse to the judge's letter of Sunday niuht.
CHICAGO , July 4. Judge Newton : I have
sinned nothing here to prevent nt Coney
Island , but you must got Mitchell alined u :
you said you would three months ago. Thing *
must , be settled .somo way nt once , ns I want

Mitchell bus signed. Answer nt once.
JAUCS ConiiKTT.
Judge Newton promptly wired the follow
ing reply from Coney Island :
i never said I would got Mitchell. You said
that being champion and the challenged party
you had u right to name the mooting plitco ,
und assuming that iDOiltlon to bo correct , you
mimed Coney Island utid signed for Coney
Island ; but there was no other club at the
time In a position to outbid us , but JUstashoon
as there wus another to raise the purse you
sought to make excuses on account of the
extra $5,000. This i.s your real po-iUon ! In the
matter , and everybody will BO understand It.

Uoclilon IntorpKttng Interview with a
Control Klfnkrc In Atnorlran
I.kl.dr Circles.
P. P. Sargent , cTiinf of the nrothorhooil
of Locomotive Firemen , Is In Omaha on bus *
Inoss connected with the general welfare of
the order. Ho was soon last night at the
Paxton by a representative of TUB UBB.
Mr. Sargent was In hU well known pleasant
humor nnd perfectly willing to talk ,
although ho had nothing startling to toll
about.
"I have Just como from Pueblo , Colo. , " said
the distinguished visitor. "I stopped over
hero for n couple of days to slzo up the
general condition of affairs and to attend tea
a llttlo business with Mr. J. H. McConnell of
the Union Pacific. 1 shall go to St. Louis
tomorrow afternoon.
"Everything Is lovely with the order Just
now. wo nro not only holding our own In
every way , .but nro rapidly increasing In
numerical strength , having acquired over
700 now members during the past three
months. The order now has over 23,000
members , nnd Is In bettor working condition
than over before. Wo nro on Rood terras
with most of thu railroads , and with the ox-
coptlon of that Toledo ease there Is nothing
to bother us at all Just now. Of course ,
times nro pretty null nnd a number of com
panies have been cutting off many of their
trains , thereby causing the laying off of a
good many of the boys , but this Is only-tem
porary and I look for a resumption of traffic
very shortly. "
"How Is the now organization getting on
the association of all the organized rail
road employes , of which Eugcno V. Debs
was elected urcsldent when the association
was formed In Chicago about three months
ago ? " was asked.
'I'ornlniit" Federation.
"I rcallv don't know , " answered Mr. Sar
gent. "Tho fact Is , I haven't paid much
attention to It. I suppose they nro getting
along well enough , though. "
"Then you don't look upon Mr. Dobs' plan
as feasible ; You will not co-operate or
amalgamate with tho.new organization1 '
"Certainly not. In the first place , 1 don't
know Just what the plan of the now organ
ization Is. I have been too busy attending
to my duties as head of my own order to give
anything else much attention. My tluio be
longs to the brotherhood , nnd as you will
readily understand , I cannot spend it look
ing into the plans of foreign organizations.
"In the second place , Lsoo no reason why
we should contomplnto an alliance with any
organization. As I said before , wo nro in
bettor shape than ever. Why , then , should
wo think fora moment of disbanding and
entering another order ! "
Kicks' Decision Will lie Reversed.
"What do you think about Judge Kicks'
order to the Ann A'rbor employes to return
to work , declariug'vthat striking railroad
men are guilty of yiolation of contract ? "
"I think the decision will be reversed , of
course. Wo have [ caryled the case to the
supreme court , aml"aro confident of a de
cision in our favor. The Judge takes the ab
surd ground that when a man quits the em
ploy of the corapauy.no is bound to give duo
notice , and adds tliat' the employes nave no
right to leave , more than one at a time. If
this is right , then the railroad companies
arc bound to glvo tholr employes duo notice
when they discharge them ; but do they
do it ? Wo expect , that ns a result
of this appeal , t the supreme court
there will be passed by congress an arbitra
tion law governlu.gtho | settlement of diffi
culties between corporations and labor
organizations whlctfvHl b < S satis factory to us
and also" to a majority of the railroad com
panies. This law Is bound to bo enacted
sooner or later , and wo look for it soon.
JJoiril of Arliltrntlin.
"It will bo an act requiring all matters of
controversy between corporations nnd em
ployes which cannot bo otherwise amicably
adjusted to bo loft to the decision of a board
of arbitration consisting of three members ,
ono member being appointed by each aide
and these two to select , the third.
"When this is done there will bo no difficulty -
culty in keening things straight and I look
upon such an act as the only solution of the
railroad labor problem.
"Yes , of course some corporations will ob
Ject ; but if you think 'you are right in an
argument aren't you perfectly willing to
leave the decision to u disinterested party ?
Some of the railroads will oppose the passage -
sago of the act ; they almost Invariably take
the stand that their business is their own
and not to bo interfered with by outside
parties. But the act will bo passed , Just the

PiTTSiiuitQ , Pa. , July 5. Whllo the local
manufacturers have not yet signed the

districts , are one by ono agreeing to
the amalgamated scale of wages.
At noon today the Locust Polnl

signed the scalo. This afternoon a dele
gate from Muncie , Ind. , reported at the
Amalgamated association's headquarters
that the Midland Stool company had signed

A dispatch from Chicago states that the
Illinois Steal company U willing to pay $5

1'lot to Overthrow the 1'rovlslonnl Oovern-
iiirnt of Ilmvull Olncovorcil.
HONOLULU ( Via San Francisco ) , Juno 28.
Developments of the past six days have
been three arrests for conspiracy to over
throw the provisional government , a threat
against the life of Claus Spreckles and or
ganization of a society within the ranks of
the annexationists for the purpose of shoot
ing down certain royalists in the event of
any opc'n attack upon the present govern
ment.
Claus Spreckles found on his gate a few
days ape a placard ornamented with skull
and cross bones and bearing the inscription :
"Gold and silver will not stop load. " Ho
laid the matter before Minister Blount , nnd
tno latter forwarded Sprccklcs'statement to
the urovisional government. The names of
the persons arrested for conspiracy are T. B.
Walker. E. C. Crick and Archibald Livolan.
They are all English , nnd the British
consul was disposed to Interfere
in tholr behalf , but dropped the
matter when Informed of the nature
of the charges. The government claims to
have evidence against those men showing
they were forming a plot to blow up the
government buildings nnd then shoot down
the anncxntlonists when they should rush to
the scciio. A number of persons uro bclnu
watched by the authorities.
Six or seven hundred annexationists have
formed a "citizen's reserve. " They are
armed with rifles and have selected certain
prominent supporters of the ex-queen whoso
names are known nnd marked them for
slaughter in the ercnt of a royalist out
break. A member of this organization gives
a list of those marked for assassination and
s.ays that It Includes Claus Sprcckles and
Minister Blount in case they Interfere in any
light that may occurr.
As noon as the government received from
Minister Blount Claus Sprockels' statement
in regard to the threatening placard steps
were taken to protect Sprockels from further
annoyance. Ills homo is now guarded by
police. ,
A statement of the appointment of
Judge Snccd as minister to' Hawaii
has arrived , hero. Minister Blount was
delighted with the news that his
successor had bcon appointed. Blount's
relations with the provisional government
have not been of a pleasant nature nnd both
ho and the government will bo glad to say
farewell. Blount is making calculations to
sail for San Francisco July 18 , and will take
his final report of the Hawaiian question
homo with him.
Claus Sprockets , wife and family will sail
for San Francisco tomorrow.

Ponnu ) . Colo. , July C. The bank panto
did not roach Pueblo until this morning.
But then It came with a vengeance. A week
or moro past largo withdrawals have boon
made from the banks almost dally , and the
American National , of which O. H. P. Bax
ter Is president and Itobort Gibson
cashier , when It opened for business
this morning found a largo number
of depositors waiting to take out
tholr money. The crowd continued to grow
arid It soon became evident that with the
ready cash on hand they could not hold out
much longer , and about 10 o'clock the doors
were closed. The notlco posted stated that
the bank would commence business again
soon , and that assets were $1,1350,000 , and
liabilities $050,000. Runs had already com
menced on both the Western National , of
which V. L. Graham Is president , and the
First National , H. D. Thatcher , president.
The Western closed Its doors Ixsforo noon.
They have doiraslts of over $1,000,000 , und
l.nvo always been considered very strong.
Hundreds of people stood in and about the
First National banK all day , and depositors
were paid as fast ns the paying tellers could
handle thorn. The general expectation Is
that the First National will bo able to pay
their depositors in full If they nro called
for , and tlmt they cannot bo forced to'oloso.
President Thatcher , when seen by a re
porter , said they had had a hard run , but
lie thought the worst was over and that
they would bo able to moot all demands.
The Central National , of which Deles L.
Iloldeu is president , closed about noon. This
bank decs n light business , but withdrawal
of deposits had boon so heavy of late that
It could : not stand any further run , and
they thought it best to close. Its assets
nro about $170,000 , nnd liabilities about
$70,000.
A sort of run was also made on the Pueblo
Savings bank , but It took advantairo of
the law which allows It sixty days. The
bank is regarded as perfectly safe.
There Is a much bettor feeling this even
ing , and the worst is believed to bo passed ,
uiach of the closed banks can pay in full as
soon ns they can realize on their collateral.

TUB BKK.The ] committee which Investi
gated thu Hospital for the Insane at Inde
pendence made its report to the governor
today. The report Is signed by 15 , Alns.
worth , F. McClollaml nnd Harriet M. Alton ,
They say the Investigation was thorough.
The charges of cruelty were not sustained ,
except In two Instances nnd then only in
mild degrees. In regard to the use of state
property by Superintendent Hill the report
says thosn charges \vero not substantiated ,
George Erlukson Was found to have boon dis
charged February 10 , 18111. Ho was then
omplovod on Dr. Hill's private farm. At the
end of two years Hill filed an Information
against him In Buchanan county and had
him recommitted.
The committee Is of the opinion that the
superintendent used this man for his own
benollt. H was found to bo customary to
sell hospital supplies to employes at test ,
which Is declared bad practicealthough the
state did not lese anything by the trans
action. It Is recommended that the pur *
chase of medicines from the State University
pharmacy bo discontinued. The practice of
Dr. Hill lecturing before the medical
students at the State university was con
demned. As a whole the report Is rather
sovcro on the hospital management.

Lively Hour PriTl | > ltitoil by n Motion to
Dltcims the Itccent Hints.
PAUIS , July 5. There was a scene of up
roar in the Chamber of Deputies over the
motion to proceed to discuss the riots in the
city , which the government opposed. The
extremists precipitated a scene of the utmost - .
most disorder over the matter and it was
impossible to transact any business for
some time. Finally the matter was post
poned by a decided. . majority , , .
The inqb has been cowed by. > 'tho deter
mined front presenteu by the government in
calling out the military and all was quiet up
to 5 this evening. It is feared , however ,
that the trouble will bo renewed after night
fall. The government will order troops to
flro volleys Into the crowds If necessary.
The trouble originally rose from the lining
of the manager of the students' ball for
allowimr girls to anpear in a state llttlo ro-
inovod from nudity. The students , however ,
are disgusted with the roughs for carrying
things so far , have withdrawn from the
streets and only the scum of Paris is now
concerned. The students assure the govern
ment they no longer have nny sympathy
with the trouble and have posted placards
to that effect. It Is believed the Boulang-
ists are fostering the troubles for political
ends.
The affair has assumed such a serious
aspect that the authorities determined to re
store order at any cost. Almost the whole
city is occupied by troops , who have orders
to repress disorder with a strong hand ,
The body of Neuter , the young man killed
in yesterday's riots , was conveyed by Infro-
qucntcd streets to the Lyons railway station > J.-
this morning and sent homo to his parents
at Lyons to avoid another uprising.
The police stopped omnibus and tramway
trafllc on the Boulevard St. Michael and St.
Germain at noon today. The patrols pre
vented groups from forming on the .streets.
There has been no further rioting. Several
of those arrested fur taking part in the riots
have been sentenced to terms of imprison
ment varying from a week to two months.
The arrest ofsovcral , convalescent patients
who hissed the pollca from the windows of
the Charity hospital has called forth a letter
of protest from Prof. Germain See.
Uiotlng was resumed at ! ) : ! 10 tonight. A
mob In the Boulevard St. Michael assumed
a threatening otUtudo nnd the police
charged , driving It us far ns the PJnco
Maubcr. Thu mob madea stand and a
fight followed , continuing until the polieo
were rcinfurcod by a largj force of republi
can guards when the rioters were dispersed.
At 11 o'clock there was n sangiihiary en
counter on thu Rue do Ecoles. The exact
details nro wanting , but it is known that
iho republican guards charged upon tin )
rioters with drawn swords and the polieo
opened flro wltli rnvo'.vsrs , Ono man was
killed and several otlu r i wounded ,
Another mob u | SJt an 1 not fire to a tram
car in the Hue Mo IKO. Thu car was burned
by the tlmo.tho ilromen arrived ,
An assistant brigadier of police was found
drowned by the Gmiallo bridge , and Is sup
