IDLE TRAINS.
Large Quantity Of Perishable Freight De-
layed by Railroad Strikes.

CHICAGO, June 25-From indications to-
night it is feared that tomorrow every
railroad entering Chicago will be tied up,
and every carrying trade Of the city be tied
up. No final decision was reached at
the conference of the Illinois Central off,
cials this evening. 1t will be rendered
tom orrow at 10 O'Clock, and on it depends
the whole issue. The Chairman of the
Grievance Committee is responsible for the
statement that if an agreement is not
reached, the Brotherhood Switchmen will
call out the men on all the other roads,
These men are entirely In sympathy with
the Illinois Central strikers and ready to 60
out at a moments notice.
There is danger. unless the strike is soon
settled, that it will spread to other roads.
The Big Four" road, which has track
age arrangement with the Illinois Central,
finding itself unable to get freight into the
city, made arrangement with the Chicago
and Eastern Illinois. Suspecting that the
Illinois Central was doing the same thing,
the Eastern Illinois men refused to handle
any of the big Four" cars. This has
caused another block.
On the Illinois Central tracks large guam
titles of fruits and berries are side-tracked
at various points and are fast rotting. The
officials of the road have issued an order to
sell these goods as fast as possible. Com
mittees of trainmeD from several roads, in
Guiding the Chicago, Milwaukee and st.
Paul and the Chicago st. Paul and Kansas
City roads, have offered to make the strike
general unless the trouble is settled to-
night. Superintendent Russell was for
merly connected with these roads and they
say he proved so obnoxious that he was
forced off those lines.
ST.. LOUIS, June 25.-Four hundred and
fifty men employed by the various roads
struck at East st. Louis this forenoon for
an advance in wages. Much perishable
freight is tied up,

THE SUGAR TRUST.
An Opinion That the Combination Has Nc
Further Legal Remedy.

Further Legal Remedy.
ALBANY, June 25.- Deputy Attorney
General Whitaker expresses his belief that
the Sugar Trust has no further legal rem
edy. He says, however: Its attorneys
might undertake to carry an appeal to the
United States Supreme Court, under a sec
tion of The Constitution which holds that
citizens of one State shall not be deprived
of privileges enjoyed by citizens of other
States, but doubt if such Il course Will be
taken"
Boston, June2 25.-Charles Foster, Presi-
dent of the Boston Sugar Refining Company,
and one of the Trustees of the Sugar Trust,
said regarding the Court of Appeals
decision. " am not sure of finding the
decision correctly reported. l am dis
inclined TO believe 1t. No matter
what the decision may be it will
not affect the business of the
trust. They can't prevent us from making
money legitimately. II the court says we
are not doing business legally, we shall re-
organize into corporations ana our buSin ess
will go on just the same"
NEW YORK, June "a Press editorial
says The decision i'll the Sugar Trust
case is far reaching and important to all
trusts. 1t is substantial and emphatic vic
tory of the people and law over trusts"
The Evening Post charges that John G.
Sheehan, Secretary of the Aqueduct Com
mission and brother Of Bill Sheehan, Gov
ernor Hills friend, offered to sell informa-
tion concerning the Sugar Trust decision in
Wall street last Friday. He claimed to
have seen the decision, and offered The in
formation for cash or other consideration.
The Post says it is the general belief that
Sheehan found purchaser of the infOrma-
tion Friday night, and if close examination
is made of those who dumped sugar certi-
ficates by the thousands Saturday morning.
the purchaser might possibly be ascertained.
The methods Of the sellers were criticized
because instead of pedding out in small
lots, they jumped on certificates so savagely
that they reached stop orders and lost the
market. The persons back of the Posts
statements are ready to make affidavits to
these facts

Eastern Demand for Canned Goods-The Prune
Market-Chicago Sales.
New YORK, June 25.-The demand in
this market for California canned fruits has
taken decided start the past week. Local
commission firms booked a number of
orders. Many of these orders were dupli-
Gates from customers who went slow when
the order season opened, but who seem set
tied down TO the belief that the supply of
canned fruits will be unusually light
Pc aches are the favortes apricots coming
next in order. The run on those fruits has
resulted in 10 to 10 cents advance over the
opening prices in many instances, while
some packers refuse TO sell goods straight.
Peaches and apricots are made to carry
other fruits along.
A fact of possible interest TO California
prune-growers is announced. IL is said that
hree concerns have secured control of the
entire stock Of Turkish prunes. Only 500
casks are now in transit to this country.

SAN ANTONIO CTex), June 25.-Trouble
has been brewing on the Rio Grande bor-
der for some time, and the indications are
that gigantic invasion, followed by much
bloodshed, will be the result. For several
days past rumors have reached this city
that the political refugees, many OF
whom were formerly prominent Mexican
Government officials were organizing and
maishaling their forces on the United
States side of the border, preparatory
to invading the States OF Coahuila
and Tamaulipas with view
formation states that 1000 of these refugees
are located forty miles below Laredo ready
to cross into Mexico Two troops of cav
airy have been ordered by the Mexican Gov
ernment from Neulo Laredo to the
scene of the expected trouble and are
now on their way. American troops from
Fort Mcintosh, Tex. have also been or
dered to assist in quelling the expected
disturbance. Dispatches from Laredo to-
night state that no bloodshed occurred to-
day, but the people are much excited
Latest advices from the alleged Mexi-
can revolution are to the effect that
two parties made sortle, one above
and one below Laredo. One was
chased from American soil by United
States troops, and was worsted in the fight
with Mexican troops over the river, one
being killed and several wounded. Others
have since been executed. The other party
attacked Guerrero, but were defeated.
several peiug killed and others captured.

THE LOCAL INTEREST.

Awaiting the Result of the Great Con-
test-A Close Shave.
The pool-rooms, rs the hour for the de-
cision of the race drew near, were throrged
with horsemen and race-goers interested in
the result. The betting was quite heavy on
the race. and although all that there is really
Californian about Salvador is that J. B.
Haggin owns him, still the colt was chosen
as the best representative OF the Pacific
Coast thoroughbreds, and any quantity OF
sympathy" money was bet on him. On
Tuesday tile bookmakers put up the match
on their states, and offered to Salvador,
even money, and to Tenny. At these
figures the money poured in so rapidly on
Salvador that he was cut to 3 to 8. Yester-
day morning the opening prices were: Sal
Vat0r l to 2, Tenny to o; and the local
post odds we're: Salvador 2 to ., Tenny to 5.
SalYatOr's supporters here felt quite elated
when the last stretch description was Sal
yator by three lengths, and when the final
decision was "Salvator wins-by head-a
short ,one,' good many Of the winner s
friends felt rather shaky in their boots,
fearing that the result might perhaps be
a dead heat. But soon the time came in
ana SalVators victory was assured. But 1t
was a mighty close shave for all that. The
time made shows that Salvador was ridden
out fully. and that Murphy did not indulge
in his fatal prediction for grand-stand
finishes and winning by nose, just for
gallery effect. Indeed, for Tenny, after
having three lengths the worst of it in the
stretch, to be beaten only by a short head
makes him almost fully Salvator's equal.
1t is question if Tenny's performance is
not the most meritorious, for good as Garrl-
son is over the shorter distances in mile
and a quarter, the best judges consider
Murphy 70 be at least superior by ten
5GGIds thar any other jockey. Taking
these facts into consideration, Tenny's per-
formance is wonderful one.
Salvador is only Californian in being
owned by j. i. Haggin. The colt was born
in Kentucky and purchased by Haggin
when yearlng for. it was then reported,
S4500. He has always raced in the East
ana has never shifted California air. Nei-
ther were his sire or dam ever owned by
Haggn; and Isaac Murphy, his rider, also
is certainly not California production.

rarity wanted they fell on the
bookies il great haste. The pencilers
held out for while longer, and then
cut the price 10 65 to 10O Tenny's price
was heightened to IS to 10. When the bugle
sounded for the post, however, to could
be had against him. Garrison was upon
Tenny, and Murphy had the mount on
Salvador. There was no delay at the post.
They were sent away at once. Salvador
took the lead and made the pace very fast
one. Passing the stand Salvador was half
Il length In front OF Tenny, and this lead he
increased to a length and half on the up
per turn. As they reached the stretch Sal
yator drew away and was leading by nearly
three lengths. Then Garrison COM
meneed to ride, and under the whip
Tenny closed up the gap inch
by inch. On the last sixteenth
Tenny was gaining on Salvador, but Muir
ply managed to keep his head in front to
the wire, winning by the shortest of short
heads. Had the race been twenty yards
further Garrison's magnificent riding would
have landed Ienny a winner. A wild shout
went up when the time was announced.
The record Of 2:O6k was beaten by one
and a half seconds, and the judges then
hoisted 2:05 as time. Fractional time is as
follows: First quarter, % seconds; half
mile, o;49A; five furlongs, 1:021a; three
quarters, 114%; seven eighths, :2TA
mile, 1894 mile and an eighth, 1:5234;
mile and a quarter, 2:05.

BosToN, June 25 - Certain Massachu-
setts members of the family of Andrew
jackson Davis, who died in Butte, Mont,
last spring. have begun contest in the Pro-
bate Court for the possession OF 81, 900
left by deceased. Henry A. Root, the most
interesting witness of the day, practced law
IN New Y York until three months ago, when
he became citizen of Montana, briefly
for the purpose, he said, of qualifying HIM
self to act as administrator of his uncle's
estate. An essential part of Roots tes-
timony was the account of converse
tions between Erwin and himself in
February last. He said that Davis, who
applies to be appointed administrator of
$500. 900 worth of property of deceased in
Massachusetts, visited his uncle. Erwin
said to him, Andrew can never recover.
You and Ellen and 1 are the ones who
naturally ought to administer on the estate.
We are the strongest minds of the family,
and as far as what happens among
US is concerned, we will talk
about that hereafter. There is $4,000 900
of it. Diana, the Oldest sister, don't need
anything but house and $4,000 or $4,000
L will give Lizzie Bowdern, another sister,
a house In Springfield and money
enough to live on" After making similar
remarks to other members of the family,
Davis continued, according to witness, Sin
that way we can get them all except Smith
(whose wife is a niece. and we will have to
law it out of him." Erwin also made an
astounding proposition regarding John
and his son Andy, that they be invited TO
New York, and John be made so drunk that
could be got to sign any paper wanted.
Witness also said that at this conversation
his uncle said There is will and we are
left outside. We will break it," Root went
out to Montana and took citiz nship there,
because there was no one but the public
administrators to look after business. The
hearing was adjourned until September

says as to wool: "The demand from rep

to recommend the adoption of the new

hoped will result in the uniform and honest
classification of wool. The increase of rates

NEW YORK, June 25.-" 1t was one Of the
hardest finishes l ever had," said Murphy
after the race. "Savator is q great colt,
but 1 had all could do to win. That little
horse is a real good one. Such burst of
speed he showed in the last sixteenth l
never saw equaled."
A majority of the spectators appear un-

the finish" said reporter, ''all up the
tack-stretch you were sitting perfectly still

That's all wrong" replied Murphy.
''Salvator was all out to the last
ounce. 1t is true l sat still for two
thirds journey, but was punching him with
spurs all the way. You saw how had to
hustle in last sixteenth"
Exception has been taken to Garrison's
riding Of Tenny by practical judges. They
think he lay too far behind Salvador, and
that he should have kept within neck of
him." said the reporter.
Suppose you had been on Tenny, with
your Judgment OF pace, would you have
lain behind as far as Garrison did?''
1t all depends on the instructions the
jockey receives. Garrison probably rode to
ORDERS" answered Murphy. "If received
directions l should do the same thing"
'' But suppose you had been allowed to
follow your own judgment?'
