plause of the crowd by exerting them
selves to relieve as much as possible the
tedium and delay OF scoring, so CON-
mon with a large field of horses. Col.
Charles Smith. of Eastville, ILL.,, was the
starter, and he was ''just lovely" ac-
cording to the feminine verdict. He
brought derelict drivers up with round
turn and even humored the crank in
the grand stand who insisted on calling
out:
"Well. how was the heat according to
your standpoint"
In the last heat of the trot crank
shouted "Go!" and Col. Smith promptly
singled him out and volunteered to
place him in the official position, which
quickly silenced him.
The Judges were Charles Smith. East
VILE, ILL.,; c. p. Gregory. Saltwater,
and Thomas B. Merritt, st. Paul. The
timers were Gov. Merriam, Bruno
Beaupre and Senator Clough, of Mime
apoIis. 1t fortunately chanced that no
close decisions occurred, nor were there
any occasion for exercising harsh
authority with the drivers.
Sergeant Billy McFetridge, of the st.
Paul police, had full charge of the track
and acquitted himself like veteran.
Too much praise cannot be given him
for the excellent manner in which he
handled matters in his charge.

THE BEST RACE.
Cleo Wins the 2:24 Glass in Good,
Straight Heats.

The 2:24 trotting race was the most
enjoyable feature of the days business,
there being some very good horses en-
tered. Prophecies were heard on all
sides that fast time would be made in
this event. Cleo, Silas Wright, Bis
marck and Billy Mack each had about
an even number of admirers and all
justified the faith of their supporters by
some fast going in the three heats.
Cleo's was the best perform ance of the
day, going the final heat in the low
time given below.
First Health the 2:24 trot, Silver
Cloud and Colored Girl were drawn.
The positions we're: Cleo at the pole,
Bismarck, second; Rarely, third; Thol-
berg, fourth; Silas-Wright, fifth; Billy
Mack, sixth; Bro. Dan, seventh. The
field being so large, some little difficulty
was experienced in getting them off.
They were sent away at the sixth score,
with Cleo in the lead, and Bismarck
second. the first quarter was passed in
3715, when Bismarck was turned loose
and crawled up. taking the pole, Cleo
going off his feet. The rest of the field
were punched at the half, Bismarck
still leading, with Cleo a close second.
Time for the half, 1:134. The third
was passed in :4SA. the horses in the
same order, the heat being won by Bis

STANDS AND GROUNDS.

The Attendance Good and Ladies
PIentiful-Best of Order and
Much Enthusiasm.
The first trains for the track left the
Twin Cities at l o'clock in the after
noon and at intervals thereafter until
the demand ceased. 1t cannot be said
there was a rush for the ground. RuSheS
are net the ordinary accompaniment of
opening day at a driving meeting, but
there was such an attendance as not
only satisfied the management, but en-
cOuraged the belief that as the meet
progressed the crowds would increase
to a rush at the close, as the character
of the hOrSetleSh will improve from day
to day to warrant attendance. AS it is,
the grand stand loOmed up handsomely,
and about 5000 persons passed its
portals.
Many improvements have nOticeably
been made since last year, and patrons
will appreciate them. The most con-
SpicuOus is the removal of the mound of
earth between the half and three-quar-
ter poles, which formerly Obscured the
view of what was frequently the best
part of a race. A clear view of the en-
tire circuit is now given, much to the
satisfaction Of everybody. The betting
ring facilities have also been improved,
and the quarter stretch cleared of the
nuisance of a crowd which formerly in
Tested it. The reporters stand has
been removed to the gallery over the
judges stand, thus giving an unim-
peded view of the finish.
The grand stand presented the usual
picturesque appearance, the result of
the presence of many ladies in racing
costume, though. IN this respect, big
Improvement is expected as the week
wears away. Nearly One-third of the
grand stand was ladies', and it was no.
ticeable fact that no more enthusiastic
votaries of swift horsetesh could be
found at the track.

Proved Very Ungentlemanly---Pat
Bruen the Final Winner.

Bruen the Final Winner.
The 2:25 pace was, in all respects, the
most interesting, but not the best race
of the day. 1t was one prolonged kick
from beginning to end, and when the
spectators did not kick the drivers did.
One point of interest lay in the fact that
two horses came from st. Paul and two
from Minneapolis. The pace was to
wagons, with gentlemen drivers" and
the cities seemed evenly matched. From
the beginning it was apparent that
monkey business was afoot. Big Ike
was pulled all out of shape in the first
heat to save him for the future, and,
after Mountain Boy had won heat and
made a show for second money, it was
claimed that Bruen helped Jones win
heat so as to give him show for second
money. Then Bruen claimed Jones
iockeyed him and compelled him in the
fifth heat to Swerve and be set back to
third place. Sleepy John failed to win
a heat in five and went to the barn.
Btuen is quite evidently the best horse.
and easily won the sixth heat and race,
though Jones was accused of shutting
out Mountain Boy and giving Bruen
free passage inside to the pole. The

NOBLE is BROAD-GAUGED.
He Will Be Liberal in Dealing
With the Territories.

WASHINGTON, July 10. - Secretary
Noble, In an interview with Delegate
Carey. of Wyoming, to-day, said that
the policy of this administration would
be broad and liberal towards the terri
tories; that the orders of the late Land
Commissioners Mcfarland and Sparks
suspending land patents in large por-
ton of Wyoming because of indications
of oil and coal should be rescinded;
that the lands where there were
no evidences of minerals should be sent
to patent that persons who settled
upon the lands, or purchased lands in
good faith, should have their evidences
of title; that this was his policy and
Acting Commissioner Stone was in ac-
cord with him. The secretary also in
formed Delegate Carey that he might
say 10 the settlers of Wyoming that
they should have their patents, and that
in addition to home rule every proper
encouragement would be given to
efforts looking to the advancement of
territories, and their admission as states
whenever prepared to assume the
duties of statehood.

REACHES AN ACUTE STATE.
Railroads Augurs Ill for Mill

CHICAGO, July 10.-The fight between
the Grand Army of the Republic and
the various railroad companies reached
an acute phase this evening. This was
the last day of the period named by the
Grand Army men in which the railroads
might gracefully surrender and grant
the usual rate of one cent q
mile to persons attending the great
annual encampment announced to take
place this year at Milwaukee. No sur
render was made by the railroads, and
this afternoon the committee of q. A. r.
departmenttommand who have been
agitating the subject held meeting
here, and proceeded with the attempt to
carry out the threat that in the event Of
the railroads proving obstinate the en-
campment should be made. if
possible merely an assemblage
of delegates instead of a huge
popular gathering. The committee
voted to send circular letter to all de-
partment commanders throughout the
country, urging that attendance on the
encampment be limited so far as prac-
ticable in the mann er described.
Preparations at Milwaukee for the en-
tertainment of the great crowds eX-
pected at the encampment have been
virtually suspended owing to the dis
pute with the railroads, and to-day'S
action of The committee of commanders
may, it is feared, render the stoppage
permanent.

chances of winning were about three in
fifty. Alexander lost his power to put
the ball over the plate again, and DAILY

waiting. Again Meekin stepped
up to the rubber. The second
ball suited him. and he pasted
it out to center. Whitley allowing the
ball to get by him and before it was re-
turned to the plate three men had
sprinted in. This made the score II to
10 in st. Paul's favor, and the crowd
made all the noise it could for two or
three minutes. Hawes was retired on
grounder to third. and the Hawkeyes
came in for their last turn at bat.
Maskrey smashed the leather to Miller,
who let it get by him. Matters looked
dubious again, but Klusman gave Mil
ler another chance, ON which he caught
Maskrey at second and Klusman at
first, and Whitley was cut off from
short to first, ending the most exciting
contest of the season. The score fol-

Villas MADE A BLUNDER.
His Decision VOiding the Trans
fer of Sioux Scrip May be Set

WASHINGTON, July f0.-During his
term as secretary of the interior, Secre-
tary Villas, in decision involving the
right of Sioux half-breed to tranfer
his scrip, held that such scrip was
not transferable. Since that time
a motion has been made to reopen the
whole matter for reconsideration, a
large quantity of such scrip having
been issued and transferred. The argu-
ments OH the question of reOpening the
matter were commenced to-day before
court composed of Secretary Noble,
Assistant Secretary Chandler and AS
sistant Attorney General Shields.
The cases which are being
heard are those of Allen VS..
Merritt, Hyde VS.. Mcdonald and Oert-
ley VS.. Campbell. There were a large
number of lawyers In attendance at the
hearing, including Gen. s. s. Burdett,
Hon. Knute Nelson and others. The
question at issue in the cases affects
parts of the towns of Glendive, Mont;
Duluth, Mimi, and Devils Lake, Oak.
Under Mr.. Villas decision the titles to
much of the land on which the towns
are partly situated are defective.

Most of these fair enthusiasts were clad
in white, with black belts and tan

for hot weather. In the course of the
afternoon the number of equlpages Ill
creased, until several hundred were
clustered along the stretch, making a
picturesque group with the numerous

pants.
The best of order was preserved
throughout. and the track was kept
clear-an innovation as pleasing as it
was novel. An ambitious fakir opened
shell game behind the stand, but was
discovered and hustled off before he
could secure man. victims. A bagatelle
was run without disturbance, and
divided patronage with the vendor of
