A Minnesota Scandal.

~. lAu Special 10 chicago liffles-
For two or three weeks past there
have been rumors aAoat in certain
circles of damaging scandals to be
made public against William w. Bill.
son, United States District Attorney,
q prominent church member, temper
a,,ce reformer, etc. Today the scandal
was brought to the surface by the com.
mencement in the District Court OF
legal proceedings against Billson by
Miss Victoria Smith. former servant.
for 81. 900. for an alleged rape of her
person. The complaint of Miss Smith
alleges that BillsOn made the attempt
on the night of the 10Th of August,
coming to her bed for the purpose,
with his person exposed, and by force
attempting to accomplish his purpose.
Billeon. in his answer, denies all the
allegations of Miss Smith, and to his
friends and alec to the Times cores
pendent that the charge is a black
mailing device. Billson is a married
man. with two children, with it has
been supposed, particularly pleasant
family relations. At the time of the
alleged assault Mrs. Billson and the
children were absent at Lake Mime
toka, the girl having charge Of the
house, Mr.. Billson going out to the
lake on Saturday and returning Mon
day. As the story goes, Mrs. Billson
returned from the lake three days after
the alleged assault, when the girl in
formed her of the attempt Of Billson.
Mrs. BilIson refused to believe the
charge. and ordered the girl out Of
the house. The girl then, BilIson says.
offered to compromise for $500, but
this she denies. At any rate, she aP-
piled to several lawyers here to COM
mence criminal proceedings against
him, but none of them would touch
the case. She then went to Mime
spolis and secured the services Of j.
IL. Bradish, who appears as her attor-
ney. II. J. Horn. one of the leading
attorneys of this city, and formerly
Law partner of Billson, appears in his
behalf The girl tells a straightforward
story. Little is known of her here,
she having been in the city only a
few months, but 90 far as can be learn
ed she has always borne good repu,

2:lO "a
u the Marvellous Time Msdo by
Maud 3. At Chicago.

Maud S. performed the extraordi-
nary feat of trotting a mile in 2:lOi at
the Chicago Jockey and Trotting Club
track last Saturday afternoon. She
had two trials. On the the first che
broke at the first turn, and was pulled
up and driven back to the stand. On
the second Bair steadied her around the
turn, and the pace to the quarter was
only ZIG gait. Strengthening in to
the back stretch the mare was given a
free rein. She promptly began a flight
Of speed that surpassed anything ever
before accomplished by trotter. The
second quarter was trotted in the mar
velous time Of :3OI-a 2.O3 clip. This
tremendous burst Of speed was main-
tanned with but slight abatement to
the home stretch, the third quarter
being trotted :3l4. at the rate of 2:O5
to the mile, and the three quarter pole
was passed in the unprecedented time
of 1876, the middle half being trotted
in 1:O2. A south wind, approximate
ing Q gale, blew straight up the home
stretch, and the mares ability to finisL
against it was seriously d Iubted, espe-
cially after the wonderful work she
had done. She was equal to the emer-
gency. however, and, although unable
to continue the terrific speed she ex-
hibited on the second and third quar-
tiers, she came home as straight As an
arrow. never faltering in the slightest
degree, and shot under the wire in the
unrivaled time of 2:1Oi. Dan Mace,
Frank Vanness and John Call, who
drove in the regular races of the day,
estimated that the wind must have re-
tarded her fully a second. If not Sec
Ond and half. She did not start
until $50. and, owing to the high
wind, would not have started at all
only that Capt. Stone declared he
did not want any one of the spectators
to 90 away disappointed. Before order
ing ner out he caused the judges to
announce that the mare should not be
expected to beat the record, as the
wind was opposed to any such result.
