comes out occasionally but the race Is virtually
settled. Howard has left the building. Little
wood is going fairly well. changing his direc-
tion every few laps. The breaking down of
Dobler and Howard is attributed to their not
reversing their direction, whereby their right
legs in both cases have given away. Every
effort has been made to put Dobler right. but
without success He evinces great courage,
hut is in pitifu condition. His leg is terribly

NEW YORK, Nov. A special telegram from
Dublin says: Active preparation is going on
among the land leaguers for the defense of the
agitstors. The irish Times says it is estimated
to be the intention of the traversers to organize
their defense 80 as to make it an exhaustive
affair, and force the land commission to extend
over long peflou. lney Will examine MT.
Gladstone in reference to hts Midlothian
speeches and his more recent utterance. Mr..
Bright upon his Manchester speech,
and Chief Secretary Forster, both
upon his writings and his asseverations in
the house of commons. It is also their pur-
pose to subpoena several landlords, as well as
their agents. Among those who will be sum-
moned will be the Duke of Lenster, Lord
Slago, the Marquis of Landsdowne, the Earl OF
Kenmore and Mr.. Mitchell. The line of de-
fense will be as follows: They will in the first
place endeavor to show why an information
| should not be taken against traversers. Upon
this point an interesting legal question Is ex-
| pected to arise. Having pleaded not guilty,
and the case having. gone to
trial, they will examine witnesses
| for the purpose as stated of justifying
| the speeches upon which it is sought to condemn
them. They intend to produce tenant farmers
from different parts of the country, especially
| the state in which the landlords were held.
! With reference to the charge of conspiracy,
they propose rendering in evidence the work
| done by the land league in its character as q
| relief committee. during the recent lperiod of
| distress in Ireland.

sent from Dublin, on reaching home will bs
