THE GREAT TURF CASE.
Lord Durham Will Not be Able TO Make His
Point Against Sir George Chetwynd.

Point Against Sir George Cherwynd.
tBY CABLE TO THE DIsPATcH.l
LONDON, June 15-The great turf
case has been going on a whole
week, and is likely to last a fortnight
longer. The question to be settled, as you
know, is whether or no Lord Durham was
right in accusing Sir George Chetwynd of
having his horse pulled and cheating on the
turf in various ways. Thus far Chetwynd
appears to be coming out ahead. He has
proved a good witness in the box, and came
up each day prepared with an apparently
sound answer for all the questions put to
him.
He produced his betting and bank books
in court, admitted that he made money out
of the turf, actually got fine income out
of it, but thought that was no.
body's business. Sherrard, the trainer, had
said that no one could teach Sir George
anything about horses, and he appears to
be right There is very little doubt that
Lord Durham has got right on his side, but
there is very little doubt as to his being
able to prove it.

Contracts.
ESPECIAL TELEGRAM To THE DIsPATCH.1
PHILL1PsBURG. June 15.-Sixty-three
suits will be entered against the Beech
Creek Railroad, Monday, for work done on
the flooded parts of the line between Phil
lipsburg and Snowshoe. The men claim
they were promised 10 cents an hour, and
to-day, discovering that they were being
allowed only II cents, demanded their state
1nents in accordance with the contract.
The demand being refused counsel was
engaged to prosecute their claims. 1t is
possible the trouble will extend to other
portions of the road.

hibition, and thereby nearly counterbalance
the prohibition counties not heard from.
1t will be noticed that prohibition is
strongest in the western counties, and in the
northern tier, east of the Susquehanna, and
In the southern counties, the sentiment
against prohibition is strong. In the center
of the State there is much diversity of opin-

LONDON, June 15.-[Copyright]-The in.
vestigations in relation to the poisoning case
in Liverpool, in which Mrs. Maybrick, an
American, is charged with killing her hus-
band with small doses of arsenic, are this
week favorable to the accused woman. 1t
is shown quite clearly that Mr.. Maybrick
at one time poisoned with arsenic several
troublesome dogs in the neighborhood,
which would show that he had arsenic
about with him.
A Liverpool druggist has admitted that
he had made up doses of arsenic for Mr..
Maybrick, sometimes 40 grains at a time.
Mrs. Maybrick's mother, the Baroness
Rogue, is working with wonderful energy
on her daughters behalf, and has aroused
universal sympathy in her efforts to prove
the accused woman's innocence.

LONDON, June 15.-[Copyright. Mr..
Gladstone has finished week of travelling,
speech making and general hard work,
which. for a man who is so years old, about
beats the record. The programme provided
for only three or four speeches, and the
Grand Old Man made round dozen.
If they have not convinced Tories and
Liberal Unionists, they have reused the
Cornishmen to such pitch of enthusiasm
that the Gladstonians express confidence
that at the next general election there will
not be single TORY or Mugwump seat left
in the whole county. The Grand Old Man
will now take arrest, and put in his appear
ance at the House Of Commons only when
his presence is considered absolutely neces-

publican Club, Of Allegheny county, was
held Last night in the Eleventh ward school
house. Mr.. Samuel Harris presided, and
James Brooks acted as secretary. A num-
Der of new members were taken in and sew
eral speeches made
Mr.. B. F. Stewart in an address, severely
scored the would-be leaders of the colored
voters in the city. He said that with over
20 years experience the Afro-Americans
have not learned the power of their votes
and how to utilize that power to the best in
terests of race elevation and political pro-
gress. They should not hold themselves as
wards and beggars and have no higher valu.
alton of their citizenship than to hold their
suffrage up for the highest bidder. In conclu-
sion he favored the Endorsement of the Re-
publican ticket.
Mr.. Walker rose to make a speech, but
