Fourth.

The Great lIorse Race On the
Fourth.
o LOUISVILLE, July 4.-When the
drum tapped for the great four.m race
today, Ten Brock and Mollie McCarty
went by the string like twin bullets.
Ten Brock had the outside of the
track and the mare being on the inside
ran to the front from the start. At
the first quarter they were side by side,
and going CALAMITY on to victory. The
halt mile did not change their position,
as they moved onward, the 10000
spectators were held in perfect silence.
Between the half and three.quarter
pole the mare got her nose ahead and
q great cheer went up, then as
they came by the string, and she again
appeared in front, another cheer was
heard. The mare was running easy,
while Ten Brock was being driven
hard. In the second mile Mollie Nc.
Carly seemed to be moving with such
ease and Ten Brock labored go hard
that Kentucky wavered by thousands,
and the apparent certainty Of Califor-
mia winning, produced dead silence.
At half mile post in second mile,
Walker urged Ten Brock quite hard,
and Hswser permitted him to come up
side by side. A Kentucky yell. such
as was heard for miles, rent the air; so
they ran past the three.quarter pole,
and coming in = pace so murderous
that many knew his bottom would
have an effect ultimately.
Mollie MoCarty brushed ahead again
passing the grand stand half length
in the lead; "she will win sure" was
heard in all directions and more con-
fdent grew the Org as her easy move
ment continued, the horse still driving.
At the three eighth pole Of the third
mile McCarty let up in her running,
Ten Brock taking the track and pass
ing her. At the very moment his
friends were'giving him up he increased
rapidly the distance separating them.
She passed the quarter in the third
mile still leading, but the horse hung
on to her so close aud made the re-
naming mile, the Queen of the Cali
fornians being at the quarter pole when
the great Kentucky crack distanced
her. The mares breakdown twas

National Associated Press to the Star.
NEW YORK, Nov. 23-The Heralds Washington
special says the developments of the Post few
days ago, showing the probable connection OF the
so-called Dr. Douglas with tie theft of Stewart s
body, have given the detectives here what they
consider a full insight into the circumstances OF
the crime.
The theory now advanced by them, is that the
chief movers in the affair were DR.. Christ
ian and q dissolute character named DR..
Crow, who it is thought were seconded and as
sisted by Percy Brown and the soda man May and
9, third party, gambler, known as Canada
Mack"
Mack has already enjoyed notoriety for hav-
ing planned TO abduct Stewart when
alive, and to hold him secreted in
some safe place until his wife should pay big
ransom for his liberation.
The graveyard in St. Marks was spotted and
located by Crow and Christian, the digging was
done by Percy Brown, and the body taken away
in carriage by Canada Mack and shipped To
Canada.
The driver of the carriage was Kelley. Chris
tian has wife, respectable woman, employed
in the Patent Office building, from whom he sep
arated long ago.
NEW YORK Nov 23-The police are still search
ing for DR.. Douglas, who, so many persons say
resembles Christian, the Washington resurrec
zionist, and who is suspected of completely in the
Stewart vault robbery
They are also looking for VIM. Ray reported a.
having put the corpse into soda water fountain
and for the hackman, Kelley, said 10 have carried
away the remains. Douglass May and Kelley art
missing since the robbery.

WHO WAS THE VICTIM!
Murdered i'm Kentucky Twenty-one
Years Ago.

On September day in 1857, more than twenty
one years ago, gentleman of fine address and els-
giant appearance entered the only tavern at thai
time in the pleasant little town of Alexandra,
Campbell County, KY. He was a stranger to the
people, and stated that he was stock dealer
bound for Canton a village some distance beyond
to purchase cattle He sporcd a handsome gold
watch and as he displayed bountfully filled
purse three young men OF the place sought to in
duce him to spend some of his money at gam

came upon an old sugarcamp furnace. Prying
around this with juvenile curiosity. they were
horror stricken at disc vering the body of a man.
doubled up and forced down into the furnace. II
was the body of The strange cattle dealer, with
bullethole through the heart. His pockets had
been rihed, his watch and money were gone and
his hat WIS found a few yards away. No friends
came to claim him, and he found nameless
grave. Clearly he had been murdered for his
money, and who were his murderers?
The three young men in whose company he
was last hastily left the neig borhood. and
the dark deed was almost forgotten in the flight
Of wears.
Ten years ago Brack Tucker lay upon his death
bed in clearinghouse at the northwest corteR
of Harris al Monmouth streets, in Newport ky..
and sending for Rev. p Hoffman, q minister of
the NJ. +. Church, he confessed that he was ono
of the three murderers of the strange cattle dealer
His companions he said, were a man named
Grffev and another whose name for certain rca-
SONS, we can not at present make public
Having made his Confession and relieved his
conscience, BTack Tucker died. Griffey has never
been heard of, ana only within comparatively
brief period have the whereabouts of the third
man charged with the terrible crime been known
to the old citizens who are familiar with all the
facts in the case.
The details of the fair were never published,
and they are now revived chiefly with the hope
that some friAnds or relatives of the vicim who
was without doubt man of property may have
clue to his unhappy fate.
