Judge Jos. I. Landes, of this city, and
the firm of Landes Il Clark soon be-
came one of the strongest at the Hop
kinsville bar. In 1879, when only
y years of age, he made the race for
County Judge of Christian county, as
the Republican nominee, against
Judge Jas. o. Ellis, and the race
was so close that contest grew out
OF it and Judge Ellis was declared
elected by three majority.
Mr.. Clark has never been an of
flee seeker, but has applied himself
assiduously TO his profession and
now ranks at the head of the bar of
this city. lie has made some splen-
did arguments. and his speech i'll the
celebrated Major case last March was
one of the best ever made in our
lcourt house. In 1879 Mr.. Clark was
COMMUNICATED with the nomination
of his party for Attorney General,
and in 1880 he was delegate TO the
National Republican Convention and
was one of the 1905" who stood by
Grant and the Stalwart wing of the
party. He has one Of the bronze
medals given 20 the "Old Guard as
they delight to be called, and his
proudcst boast is that he is stall
wart Republican He is one of the
most noted ways i'll the State and
there is no end to the practical jokes
he has played. Eli Perkins, the hui
morist, asked him TO Introduce him
to IIopkinsvillc audience some
years ago. Perkins had said some
mean things after a former
visit, and when he came back his au-
dience numbered not more than Il
score of persons. Clark led him to be-

brought him out and introduced him
TO each of his auditors by name. TIL,

aftcrward said that Clark was tho
only man who had ever gotten
ahead of him in a practical joke.

SPORTING NEWS.
Tuesdays Trot at ChicagO-How Monroe
Chief and the Pool-Box Won.

Chicago News.
To begin with, the pools sold at $25 on
Monroe Chief, Wilson $25 and Fanny
Witherspoon $40, Witherspoon had slightly
the worst OF the start and Wilson at once
took the lead. He was never headed during
the mile, and won in 1884, six lengths
ahead of Monroe Chief, who was leading
Witherspoon. 1t was here that the crooked
ness began to show. The Chief, after losing
the heat, sold at $25 and Wilson and With
erspoon were rated at 500 in the field. In
this heat Monroe Chief led all the way, with
Wilson away behind and merely trotting to
save distance. The time was 2:23A. Pools
for the next heat were $50 on the Chief to
to $13 on the field. Wilson took the heat
by two lengths in the fast time of 1922 with
Monroe Chief second and Witherspoon third.
With two heats for Wilson the pools were
still $25 on Monroe Chief to $40 on the field,
with Wilson selling in the field. 1t
was now loudly limited that there was job
up. In fact, everybody seemed of that opin-
ion. Again Hckok allowed Wilson to lag
behind and the result was that Monroe
Chief was virtually given the heat in 2:27,
the slowest in the race. BY this operation
even the directors had their eyes opened,
and a committee of them visited Secretary
Hall and protested. For the fifth heat pools
were $25 on the Chief and So on the field.
When the horses came out for the heat
Hickok was called up by Hall, The Secre-
tary said:
I'VE expect you to win this heat"
"Oh, yes, 1 will if L can," said Hickok,
with an ironical smile.
tolerable start was given. The heat was
a procession, with the Chief leading, Wilson
second, and Witherspoon third Wilson
was close behind but he did not force the
Chief. When about fifty feet from the wire
Hickok lifted Wilson ahead a little, but he
was so far behind, and so close 10 the wire,
that the driver was safe enough in urging
the horse As it was, he at once cut down
the lead, and had the whip been used at the
distance stand Wilson would have won the
race.

THE WILLARD STOCKS.
Instead of Causing a Decline, the Legal
Proceedings Resulted in an Advance.

Instead of Causing Decline, the Legal
Proceedings Resulted in Advance.
New YORK, Oct. 24-Instead of declining
asexpected all the Willard shares advanced
upon the announcement in Wall street that
applications had been made for injunctions
to prevent the issue of second mortgage
bonds of the Northern Pacific Railroad Com
pany. This strength in these shares was re-
garded as showing that the large holders as
also the officials of the roads attach no i'm
portance to the legal proceedings. Indeed,
Mr.. Samuel Wilkison, secretary of the COM
pany, said that this attempt at securing an
injunction, is simply an ''empty bulb" and
added, the Northern Pacific Company is
impregnable, and is as strong as the rock of
Gibraltar against any attack that may be
brought against them"
The legal proceedings referred to were
those OF NJ. H. Anderson, of Wall street,
who obtained an injunction preventing the
issue of Northern Pacific second-mortgage
bonds, Three other suits were brought
against the Northern Pacific by Dunning
Edsall, Heart & Fowler and Anderson. &
Howland. The ground taken is the original
act in the corporation, which prohibits the
company from making any mortgage or issu-
ing any construction bonds without the con-
SOhN - OCASicoo. OOu9IeSS gave IlS consent,
in 1870 that the company might issue con-
structon bonds and secure them by mort
gage. Under that consent Jay Cooks mort
gage was made, which was subsequently
foreclosed.
The position taken by the plaintiffs is that
the authority of Congress once exercised was
exhausted, and could not be repeated. The
ofhcers ol the company say the suit brought
by j. j. Bradley, who says he is a holder of
common stock, is o no Importance He asks
that the company be enjoned from issuing
bonds or making mortgages until Congress
gives consent. This consent was given long
ago and Bradley official claim is now stand
ing. He had 5000 shares of common stock
transferred to him on Saturday to bring the
suit
1t is stated that since the opening of the
Oregon IL Transcontinental Companvs trans
fer books 10000 shares of that stock have
been transferred and taken out of the street.
Solicitations for proxies for ratification of
the Northern Pacific second mortgage were
sent out to day, and it is announced that
$50, 900 900 of stock and proxies are already
secured of the $3l 100000 required

CHICAGO SPECULATION.

Wheat and Corn without Decided Change
Slight Rise in Pork and Lard.
Special to the indianapolis Journal
CHICAGO Oct. 24-On Change, to-day,
wheat exhibited strength at the opening, and
sold up &c over yesterday, but the advance
brought out free sellers, and the demand
having been supplied, prices receded
irregularly and closed at about yes
terday's figures. On call, the sales were
mostly for January, and values
were a shade better. The weakness
during the day was caused by the .rumored
large increase in the visible supply. Re-
ceipts were fair and shipments light. For
eign advices quoted steady feeling. The
"bulls" have no news of encouragement.
There was good speculative and shipping
business in corn at higher prices early in the
session. but gradually this settled down to
yesterdays quotations. On call, there was
further trifing loss, with transactions chiefly
in the year option, which showed the most
strength. Increased receipts, higher lake
freights and unfavorable outside markets as
sisted the decline.
The trading in pork was mostly in the
January and February options, and an ad-
vance was established at the opening which
was subsequently lost under large offerings,
and the close showed reduction from yes
terday. October lard was hammered down
4212 cents by the BEARS and everybody
wanted to sell. The deferred deliveries
opened higher but closed little lower, with
considerable trading in December.
