MONTANA WINS THE RICH LORIL.
LARD STAKES IN A CANTER.
Results of the Rosedale Athletic
Club Sports.

The muddy going at Chicago, yester-
day, was to the liking of Los Angeles,
and she won her second race this sea-
son. To date the Santa Anita stable
has only won five races thus far, while
in former years twenty-five would be
much nearer the number at this time OF
the year. The victory of Montana. in
the Lorillard, was not surprise. He
came within an ace of beating Potomac
for the Realization, the week previous.
If the time is correct j. j. Audubon,
who won the two. year-old trotting stake
at Philadelphia in 2:2334, must be a
sensational colt. The time looks to be
altogether too fast, especially this early
in the season.

WILL OSTRACIZE THE FAIR.
Chicago Labor Unions Strike Back al
Exposition Directors.

CHICAGO, June 1.-iSpeciall- At n
general meeting of tho i've central
labor bodies of tho city yesterday Or
ganized labor took radical stand
against any further move to give public
assistance to the Worlds Fair as long
rs demands for minimum rate are
refused. Resolutions upon resolutions
were cast at the fair directors and a
committee was appointed to continue
tho fight.
Legal opinions were read from C. s.
barrow and Jessie Cox on the question
as to whether the Worlds Fair directors
had right to grant the minimum rate
OF wages. The directors claimed that it
would conflict with tho rulo which re.
quired them to let contracts to the
lowest bidder. Both these attorneys
opinions were to the effect that the di.
rectors had right to grant the mini
mum rate and that it did not conflict as
referred to. The Inference drawn bv
tho labor people from these opinions was
that the directors knew their rights all
the time, and merely gave this excuse
as subterfuge to escape from the mini
mum rate.
The Worlds Fair joint labor commit
tee submitted an exhaustive report COW
ering all its conferences with tho Worlds
Far directors, together with all docu-
ments bearing on the case 1t received
action of the city council in it's favor
and refusal of the Builders and Traders
Exchange to act in conjunction with its
rejection OF the minimum rate OF wages
by directors.

TINES:
Allow me, in this initial dispatch
sent over our new leased wire system
direct to your editorial rooms, to con-
gratulate you upon tho increased facili.
ties for inter communication and dis
semination of news throughout the
South which will grow out of this new
enterprise.
This innovation upon past methods of
supplying news enables the United Press
Company to extend the scope of it's
operations in fast developing region
that needs to be, and, in fact, is demand
ing more information about the current

keeping with the progress of THE TIMES

journalism Of the South.
Tho circuit which we inaugurato to-
night is the first of it's kind to be put in
operation south of Richmond
You may now have the satisfaction
OF knowing that you are practically in
direct communication with every point
on our system, North, South, East and
West We have taken great care to Sc
lect tclegraphers for the new circuit
who arc masters of their art and the re-
cciver in your Office must of necessity
be as expert as the receiving operator
in our New York or Chicago office.
This is easy to manage for the cream of
the profession drifts into the United
Press service as fast as we can make
places for them as naturally as a duck
takes to water. GeneralManager Phillips,
of tho United Press, who is himself an
expert telegrapher, struck the key note
of the situation recently, when he said:
1--WE appreciate good work and telegra-
piers are as proud of their ability as is
painter, sculptor or an author, and
next to paying him we'll, a disposition
to give him credit for what he does is
the surest way to win an operators re-

fiTTsBuRG, Pa, Juno l. - Special
Contrary to expectations the trial of the
accused and suspended ministers was
not commenced at this mornings ses-
sion Of the Reformed PRESBYTERIAN
synod. This fact, however, did not pre-
vent the synod once more engaging in a
wrangle, that, if possible, surpassed in
violence of language and action the wild
scenes enacted during tho past week.
The church was crowded to its limit
during the early hours of the session.
The nero mention of the trouble
creating letter read by DIR. McAllister
last week was again tho cause of all the
disturbance. Ministers noted for their
dignity and spirit of Christianity, went
at each other in most scathing Ian
guage and were not bit backward in
characterizing each other as perverters
OF the truth. During the dcbate the vast
audience was worked up to state of
the highest excitement The moderator
was powerless to control tho warrinr
clergymen and his appeals and com
hduuo WcnI LOT nduSnt.
A motion to grant DR.. McAllistcr's
request resulted in split, and the
matter was laid on the table 1t was
during the discussion of this motion
that the wild scenes wcro enacted.
The report of the disciplinarians was
submitted and sustained tho action of
the pittsburg Presbytery in having sus-
pended the ministers at the recent
trial The committee recommended
that the suspended u,inistcrs and
those against whom DIR. McAllister had
preferred charges should be granted a
full and impartial hearing.
