this particuler instance Valley Forge, who
was one of the fayorites in the race, was
held by his owner, Mr.. c. W. DAILY, till
he was left standing at the post. As a
large amount was placed on him, the re-

elegant. In the same race the rider of
Joe Simmedy, after a start, pulled up his
horse and left the race. This horse sold
as a favorite in the auction pools, aud the
judges held an investigation, The jockey
said that owing to the large number Of
horses in the race he could not get away

Released from Prison.

WASHINGTON, Sept. % Julio II.
Santos, a naturalized citizen recently re-
leased from prison in Ecuador upon the
demand of the United States government,
backed up by a man-of-war, arrived here
to-day in company with Congressman
McComas, of Maryland, and called at the
department of state to express his thanks
for its successful efforts in his behalf To
a reporter Of the Associated Press Mr..
Santos said the Ecuadorian authorities
pretended to have liberated him in conse.
quence of the passage of an act of parlia-
ment by the Ecuadorian government.
This, Mr.. Santos declared, was a mere
prctense. He was liberated three days
after the arrival OF the l%roquois and
wholly in consequence of the action of the
United States government. The charge
against him of having conspired against
the government of Ecuador was, he de-
clared, untrue. He was imprisoned with
some other business men in order that
money might be extortcd from him. He
has documentary proof of the willingness
OF the authorities to release him any time
upon the payment of $4,000. He was
confined for a time in an unventilated and
filthy coal hulk and was then transferred
to a prison situated liz the basement of
the yellow fever hospital. Mr.. Santos
will employ counsel Immediately and will
file a claim for damages with the state
department against the government of
Ecuador.
