TEN BROCK WINS.
The $4,000 Match at Louisville
an Indifferent Contest.
Mollie Mccarthy Distanced
Twenty-Five Th0usan d Pe0.
pie Greatly Disappointed.

LOUISVILLE, Ky July 4.-When the
bell called Ten Brock and Mollie Nc
Carthy, to, the track, the excitement was
intense. Everybody wanted to see these
bright particular stars OF the turf, and
much jostline and crowding was the con-
sequence. The betting was so much
one sided-owing to the earnest support
OF Ten Brock by his admirers-that
there was great surprise expressed. Ten
Brock brought 5000 and Mollie only
S75, these rates ruling In nearly every
pool. There was no delay in saddling.
Mollie drew the pole, and when the hor-
ses were started the enthusiasm was sim.
ply indescribabls, the ladies seeming to
be almost beside themselves with excite.
ment. 1t is pity that the result was OF
such an Indifferent character; 1t did not
Justify this enthusiastic demonstration.
Mollie went away with the lead, and at
the qnarter pole was one length in ad-
vance. Ten Brock, kept her running,
and as she had the speed the pair ran
with scarcely length dividing them to
the hall; mile post, past the three.quarter
pole and grand stand. Ten Brock still
kept the mare at her work, and the Sec
ond mile was duplicate Of the first, the
mare leading by short length. At the
quarter pole on the third mile Ten Bro
eek moved up and Tapped Mollie, and
before reaching the half-mile pole he was
two lengths in front. From this point
Mollie was beaten. Ten Brock gallop-
ed away from her the remainder of the
heat at pleasure, and Mollie stopped.at the
end of the three and three quarter miles
completely tagged ont; she was, distanc-
ed. The first mile was run In 394
two miles, 8 454; three miles, 5.53, and
the four miles in 8 194 Ten Broeck was
badly cramped after the heat. The mul-
titude were simply disgusted at the mis-
cradle ch haracter OF the display: - -, ~

THE SOCIALISTS.

Organizing for Mischief in st. Louis--Sev-
eral Hundred with Springfield Rifles.
ST. LOUIS, May lit has been stated in pub
lie prints here that members of the socialistic
party have been drilling in this city for some
time past. An interview this after
noon with Mr.. Curtin, city edi-
tor of the Folks Stenan,, organ
of the German Socialists, and who was very
active in the riots last july and was arrested
and. imprisoned therefor, verified the state
ments. He said some 260 members
Of the socialistic Workingmens Protective
Association, have been drilling once q
week in Washington hall, and they expect to
have another hall soon. Their arms are Sprin-
field rifles. They have but about two hundred
yet, but expect more shortly. They are pur-
chased mainly by subscriptions here,
but they have received some contributions
from the east.
When asked what these arms proposed to do
he said they would protect the meetings of the
socialistic workingmen from police power to
arrest without warrant Of law of men who
have constitutional right to assemble and dis
cuss their grievances. He says the party
numbers from five to six thousand in this CITY,
and from fifty to sixty thousand in the
country, all sworn members. Besides
these, he said, there are as many men in active
sympathy with the organization who are ready
and willing to give it aid at any time, but who
do not wish to enroll themselves, because of
the fear of losing their situations.
~-Dr. Watson, editor-in-chief of the Volk
published in New York, says the party has
increased in the country from
five thousand il two years to
some $4,000, its present strength, and that it is
gaining members rapidly.

BURSTED BOILERS.

Terrific Explosion on a Tow Boat at Mem
phis--The Boat Completely Demoralized
"A Crew of Twenty-Five Killed or In
jured--The Captain Among tho Former.
MEMPHIS, Tenn, May AT 9:20 this morn
ing the tow boat Warner, from New Orleans to
st. Louis, with five model bargcs and the trad
ing boat Koligan in tow, exploded her boilers
when opposite the elevator. The pilot house
and roof were blown to great height and fell
back upon the wreck, while the air was filed
with splinters and fragments. The wreck took
fire instantly. and smoke and steam hid the
boat from the crowd which soon lined the
bluffs, and it was thought all on board had
persisted.
The tug DeSoto and two or three skiffs were
soon at the wreck and succeeded in saving the
following: John W. Poe, clerk, slightly bruis-
ed; Jacob Cox, pilot, badly bruised-he and
Poe having been blown into the air, and falling
back on the wreck. Captain George Dawson,
slightly scalded; Napoleon Sivinnay, pantry
man, cut in the head and arm, not
badly cut in the arm and ecalded;
Clara Blank chambermaid. badly bruised;
Barney Cassiday, mate, blown through the
roof and badly hurt; Chris. Absolute, slightly
hurt; Nicholas Cobb, steward, slightly scalded;
William jerks, carpenter, Peter Connolly and
Pat Thompson, unhurt; Dixon Kenneth, pilot,
and VIM. Radcliffe, second engineer, " no were
asleep at the time, were lost, and one fireman
was literally blown to fragments.
The boat had total crew Of twenty-five, but
owing to the confusion and the hurrying off to
the hospital of the wounded, it is impossible
to tell exactly how many were lost.
In five minutes after the explosion all the
wreck except the roof had sunk out of sight
and the tow of barges were on fire, but the tug
De Soto extinguished the fire and landed the
barges on the Arkansas shore.
All the officers and crew were residents of st.
Louis.
The noise of the explosion resembled the
charge of ten-inch columbiad and shook
every building in the city.
Although two of the crew stated that they
saw Capt Dawson after the explosion. it is now
certain he was lost, as no trace of him can be
found since immediately after the explosion.
The Warner was owned by the Babbage
transportation company and was valued al
$4,000; insured for $4,000, but not against
exnlOsiOn.

SITTING BULL.

The Old Cut-Throat With Leading Chiefs
Apply to Gen. Miles for Terms of
Peace.
CHICAGO, May 1.-Gen. Sherman this after
noon received report from Gen. Miles, dated
headquarters of the district of the Yellowstone
fort Keogh, NJ. T., informing him that Sitting
Bull and IA men, all head soldiers and chiefs,
had sent a half-breed to Gen. Miles, inquiring
what kind of peace the United States would
make with them, and saying the Great Father
was, of course, too rich to expect the Indians
to give up their poor cattle, ponies
and their old guns. Gen. Miles
in reply informed Sitting Bull that if he de-
sired to stop hostilities peace would be made,
which would end all trouble between the
whites and Indians. When the Indians give
up their ponies and guns they will receive cat
tie and other property of great value in place.
When peace is made the government will pro-
vide for them as it does for all friendly In
dams.
