and the stallion's feet shot into the air, only
to get couple more cuts. The butt of the
whip went toward his nose when the horse
behaved; the lash flew when he turned
away. In three minutes, Gleason had the
| horse following him like a dog. Gleason
succeeded in completely subduing three
vicious animals, among them a brother of
the famous trotter Clingstone who one
week ago chewed and kicked his keeper to
death, and a short time before chewed an
other mans hand off. He was brought
here from Montreal Sunday. In one min

interpreter says concerning their reception
III San Francisco Collector Hager was in
the Palace Hotel when we arrived, so Sur
| yeyor Tinnln came on board and said that
! with the instructions from Collector Hager
| the credentials must be examined before
his Excellency could be allowed to land.
The reply from the Minister was: Our
credenti Is are from the Emperor to the
President of the United Statee and not to
the Collector. If the Collector wants to
see them prefer to telegraph TO Secretary
Bayard ana remain on board two DAYS
rather than show them to him. Upon
which Mr. Tinnin said he would land US
on his own responsibility. Meantime we
were delayed an hour and three-quarters
| so MIR. Hager has either disobeyed the
orders he received from Washington or
he has taken upon himself to ignore the
ambassador as a representative of China
On Friday evening Collector Hager having
received that's what he told mel orders
from Washington to explain his conduct,
came to call on the Minister and said that
1t was not Intentional on his part to hurt
the feelings of the Minister. He said it
was mistake. Hager, all the same meant
to delay US to please a certain class
| OF people in California. With regard to
| the Chinese who have been killed at Rock
| Springs and other places, their families
| are very indignant about it. but the
Government at large and the Viceroy are
doing all they can to cause this feeling
| to subside, and | don't think ANYTHING
will happen TO American citizens in China,
] except in some cases the low class of
! Chinese might do something, as the low
class of Americans have done in this coun-
try. OF course this is unexpected To re-
fer again to the Hager affair Our Minister
! told Mr.. Hager that he was very much sur
| prised at his reception that he had come
to strengthen the relations between the two
i countries, and not to weaken them.''

New YORK, April 2lst-A M.-Charles

extremely fond of driving, and yesterday

being out with his son Ogden About 4:2O

which takes bend to the southeast
MIR. Crocker was driving pretty fast. and it
is supposed that in attempting to cross the
high car track one of the wheels was
swerved suddenly, throwing the driver
Oft his balance and jerking the reins
out of his hands. At any rate, though
the wagon did not upset. Crocker was seen
to sway suddenly to the right and fail out
OF the vehicle to the ground. 1t happened
that DIR. Edward Ayme, one of the sur
geons OF the Manhattan Hospital, had been
transferring g patient to the Bellevue Hos
pital, and was returning in an ambulance.
The ambulance was not six feet away
from Crocker's wagon, when the fall
occurred. DR.. Ayme had seen the lines
jerked from Crockers hands, and in a mo-
ment after had leaped to the ground The
doctor found that Crocker had received
severe confusion of the head, hands and
right side, and of course suffered from the
shock. A hypodermic injection of NOR
phine was administered and the hurts
then were quickly bandaged.
Mr.. Crocker was then removed to Man
haitian Hospital, and every comfort and
care possible was bestowed on the patient
Miss Crocker and Charles Crocker, Jr,
nephew, when informed by Ogden
Mills of the accident went at once to
the hospital. Mrs. Crocker was subsequent
ly brought over, and she and her daughter
decided to remain all night at the hospital
DR.. Radensteln said last evening: Il
do not apprehend any serious results, and
| think the patient will be able to BE re-
moved to his home in few days. He is
suffering, of course, good deal of pain
from his bruises, and has not yet recovered
from the shock of the fall. There are no
signs of internal injuries, however"
