Slim Attendance- .
Dig fields and a good day's sport , but
poor attendance , marked HIP opening (
the ten-day running meet of the Counc
Ml tiffs Jockey club at the Driving park yei
tciday. The slim attendance. It Is gen
dally belle\ed , was duo to the fact th :
the meet had not been sufficiently advci
Used , but better crowdh are looked for i
the meeting progresses. Yesterday wz
Ladles' day and there was a fair sprlnV
ling of the fair sex In the grandstand , tt
women probably outnumbering the inci
Charles Stewart , Chailes Gregory ac
James Gray odlclated as Judges , but wei
rathtr handicapped from the fact that tt
numbers for the jocke > s falfed to arrl\e c
time , although the first lace , which w ;
Mlled for - o'clock , was not started unt
an hour later , In the hopes that they wou
show up. 'Iho Judges In consequence wel
loiced to pick the winners by the Jockey ;
colors and as there1 were no objections the1
evidently did ho correctly. W. K. Sapp an
Dr. V. T. Sejbeit acted as timekeeper
while the starting was In the hands of V
1" . Maxwell of St. Louis , who used the ne
clcctilc gate , which Is an Inuoxatlon ol
wcit. The machine proved a success an
the horses In each race were gotten aw a
with but few bteaks and well together. Th
track , although a tilflo "choppy , " was I
very fair shape , the rain of the tw
previous days ha\tng done much to pi
It In this condition.
One feature of the day's racing was 11 :
manner In which the "long shots" manage
to win. Jockey McClelland , who had th
mount on Junta J in thu first race , sufferc
a fall and a bioken collarbone. In tryln
to force his mount through the bunch th
animal collided with another horse and fel

General James Hush Lincoln , at his horn
In this city , talked at length of his trl
to the fcouth ami of his command s > lnco b
left Camp McKlnley. He said , In part.
"When I left Ames after I rcceUed m
commission as brigadier general I was as
signed to the Second brigade , Third dlvls
Ion , Fourth corps , under Major Gener ;
Lee. We were Htatloned at Mobile , hi
! were there only ono week , when we wci
[ moved to Tampa. Here we camped aboi
slweeks. . At llrst the weather was lliu
but later heavy rains fell almost ever
I afternoon , but as It had been \ery dry an
hot before the rains were \ery favorabli
Hut when the rainy season set In our cam
at Palmetto Beach was swamped. Wo wer
ordered successively to Santiago and t
Porto Klco and were pleased with the 01
ders , but they \\erc countermanded olraos
as soon as received. Wo were later move
to Fernandlna , but the sickness In my brl
gado continued to Increase and last wee
wo were moved to Iluntsvllle , Ala. , wher
we will rcmalnln camp until the sick ar
(
recovered , when we expect orders to Icav
for Cuba. These eiders are expected abou
the middle of October.
"Bffoio I left Iowa I stated that th
northern men would stand the weather I
southern camps better than the men of th
south and In my experience that has prove
to be true , for , at least In my commam
and 1 fear the same from others , the sick
ness is greater among the southern regl
monts than among those from the norther
states. The sanitary conditions of m
present camp , Iluntsvllle , arc the very best
the conditions are favorable for good healtl
It IB situated up In the mountains. Her
Is good spring water , the ground Is roll In
I and the drainage Is all i Ight , and the sic
list Is diminishing In size and I think w
I
! will be ordered io Cuba , as I previousl
j said , about the tulddlo of October. Yes ,
I think military government will bo estal
| llbhed In Cuba , and a good sized army wl
bo needed there to establish and inaintai
order , especially until the natives lear
our modes of life and get down to buslnes :
I am fcuro I do not know what will be don
with the I hllijpines , but 1 do not sec ho'
wo can well let go of them. It will , (
course , take a very largo standing arm
there to keep things straight , for the na
lives arc of a peculiar sort and not used t
civil government. Hut the Imposts froi
the ports , which are among the best In tli
world , will undoubtedly bring a surplus fc
the United States. Porto Rico Is inhabite
by a moro intellectual class , ono that wl
i bo easily governed. General Leo will prol
| ably be placed nt the head of the Cuba
govciument.
"Tho comparative good health enjoyed litho

received another letter from their daughter ,
Miss Ulanchc , who Is at Santiago In one of
the government hospitals helping care for
the stcl < and wounded soldiers. Miss Pack
ard tells many little Incidents In the hos
pital life , and relates one , In a modest way ,
that shows that nt least one soldier can
attribute his llfo to Miss Packard's careful
nursing. The letter tells or how the toldlera ,
when given up to die , are taken from the
wards In the hospital and given cots on the
porch , where they can get all the fresh air
possible. One man , a Uphold patient , whose
lifo had thus been given up , was taken In
charge by Miss Packard personally , and
for some little time was made to swallow
doies ot crushed lee , mixed with brandy.
Miss Packard says she kept irp this treat
ment steadily for a time , and now the soldier
Is back In the hospital and Is getting better.
T'ovcinor Packard says his daughter learned
this bit of treatment from her own case ,
when she was a sufferer from yellow fever
in the south. Her llfo waa sa\ed by the
treatment , and she has ne\cr forgotten It ,
and has found It to bo successful In typhoid
cases.

state convention of the demo
cratic , people's and silver republican
parties convene in this city and
tonight the city Is crowded with dele-
Kates , who arc anxiously Inquiring \vlio will
bo the nominees. No one seems to Know ,
for candidates are hard to find. The popu
lists and silver republicans are clamoring
for their share of the nominations In pay
ment for services and BO far as crystallized
the division of empty honor will be about
as follows : Secretary of state , auditor ,
treasurer , ono railway commissioner and
clerk of the supreme court to the democrats ;
nttoiney general , one railway commissioner
and court reporter to the populists and su
preme Judge to the silver republicans. If
this program carries , Judge Spurrier of Dcg
Molnes will capture the Judgeslup. There
IK no doubt the comention will adopt a
financial plank endorsing tbo Chicago plat-
from of 1896 , although ex-Governor Holes ,
who considers himself still a dem
ocrat , Is urging a plank favoring
bimetallism on a ratio to be de
termined , but antagonistic to the 16 to
1 theory , while Judge Carr of the state cen
tral committee wants a plank which will
please the gold democrats , by not pointedly
favoring bimetallism at any given ratio ,
but charging all the Ills of mankind lo the
single gold standard. Hon. Frank Q Stuart
of Charlton has been selected as temporary
chairman and H. A. Nash of Dallas county
as temporary secretary.

WASHINGTON , Sept. C Secretary Day
probably will not resume the discharge of
the functions of secretary of ut.ite and It
may be assumed that his connection with
the department , sa\o In the capacity of a
peace commissioner , terminated when ho
left Washington for Ohio recently.
Upon his return to WashlnRtou It Is ex
pected that he will come to the State de
partment for the purpose of bidding fare
well to the emplojcb.
There Is no loiiRer a reasonable doubt
that Justice White has decided to decline
the appointment of peace commissioner and
that he refrains from uiakliiK public an
nouncement of hlB purpose at the riuucbt of
the niesldent. It Is Intimated th.U aeiy
early announcement may bu looked for , as
there is reason to belle\e the president has
already made a tender of the commissionership -
ship nnd Is now waiting an acceptance be
fore making public that fact.
Arrangcmentb for the departure of the
committee on the 17th Inst. from New York
are being pushed. Aetlnj' Secretary Mooie ,
with the assistant c of .Mr. Mi Arthur , Is
giving a great deal of time to the connec
tion of documenth and ch.Mts needed by
the American commissioners in tlulr work
and the subjects likely to arise In con
nection with the final peace negotiations me.
receiving the tltweHt study at the bauds of
these gentlemen. Especially Is this tine of
the Philippines , which promite to bo the
bone of contention , and consequently Secre
tary McArthur Is dc\oting the greatest
share of his attention lo that subject
To establish a clear understanding of the
scope of the commission and Its powus. it
Is stated that this body Is not in any sense
Judicial , but purely diplomatic. The pro
cedure will not be of a character where
numerical voting strength will determine
any proposition , but the commissioners on
each side nro expected to act as heparato
units and should differences arise they must
bo settled by the ordinary course ot diplo
matic negotiations.
