Kentucky Derby winner, was in fourth
place. Jockey Tiney Williams rode Carls-
bad 10 victory, and about 1900 Chi
goans saw the great race, which is every
wear TO the Worlds fair city what the SUI
burban handicap is TO New York.
The American Derby is sweepstakes
for 3year-olds, distance n miles. It has
been run for nine years at Washington
park. and the time this year, 3:0i4
was the slowest since Modesty first won
the great event in 1884. The best time
made over the course by a Derby winner
was 2:S6l%, made in 1887 by c. II. Todd.
Carlsbads poor time was due to the ter
rible condition Of the track. Carlsbad is
a bay colt by Glenelg- Lady Maynard,
and he carried 10 pounds in the Derby.
As he was a ten to one shot in the race, his
very few hackers were heavy winners.
Carlsbad was bred by his owner at Elmen-
dorf, Ky. AS a 2-year-old Carlsbad won
in three out OF his eight starts. This
year he has captured two races out Of four,
but as one of them was the great American
Derby he has proved very profitable
horse for Bob Swigert.

MURDER BROUGHT TO LIGHT
After Two Years Mexican Girls Death Is
Explained.


The details Of n horrible crime have Just
been brought to light in the City Of Mexico.
In 1890 a man named Gerardo Karamillo was
paying court toa young girl named Conception
Fernandez. On Palm Sunday Of that year
they 0uarreled. and soon after Conception
was missed from her home.
Her mother appealed TO Justice. karamillo
was arrested on suspicion. No positive proof
of his guilt was. however, forthcoming. and
ne was about 20 be released. when Il young
frishman. Patrick Desmond. employed in a
match factory in the City OF Mexico. appeared
before tho Judge and related that one night
in the spring of 1870 be was returning home
late from visit to his sweetheart when his
attention was arrested by the sound Of
womans voice appealing In agOnizlng tones
for mercy.
Approaching the spot from which the cries
proceeded he saw by the aid of the moons
light young woman struggling to free her
self from three ruffians. Just at this moment

drew a long knife and stabbed the woman TO
the heart. The three men then buried her in
a dry ditch. covering the corpse with mud
and stone.
The Judge ordered the spot indicated by
Desmond 10 be examined and after several
excavations had been made without result the
skeleton Of "a woman. supposed to be COncep-

culprits were present during the excavation
and all eyinced deep emotion aud excitement.

CARNOT'S NETS SPREAD.

| The French President After a Cabinet.
Maker-Nobody the Worse for the
Change-women Dance and Smile
While Their Husbands Drop Out oil
Politics.
| TBY CABLE TO THE DIsPArcHI
| LONDON, Feb. 20.-President Carnot is
engaged upon the weary task of persuading
somebody to form Cabinet, which will be
the twenty-seventh Cabinet since the procla-
nation of the French Republic on the 4th
of September, 1870. NJ. de Freycinet had
been Prime Minister for nearly two years,
and there was no particular reason why he
should not remain in Office, except that in
French eyes his Cabinet has become hoary
with age
Had the Cabinet lived three months
longer it would have broken the French
ministerial record, and the consequent
prestige might have made N. deFreycfnet's
position too secure to suit the personal con-
venience of NJ. Clemenceau and other pa
trlots. Part of the trouble is due to the
present party system of Republican con-
centration, which, owing to the Boulanger
scare, replaced the good of the system of
groups representing every shade of opinion.
No One Worse for tho Change.
On Thursday, it seems, the Republicans
concentrated so effectively that the Repub-
lIcan Government was turned out before
the majority quite realized the situation.
Nobody is likely to be any the worse for
the change. The idea that it will in anv
way affect or imperil the Franco Russian
understanding is secuted in Paris as boyle
OF German manufacture
The Gar has studied French history, and
knows well enough that alliances and un-
derstandings cannot change the French
nature. But if fairly strong ministry be
formed, it may seek to strengthen itself by
modifying the commercial policy, and the
general opinion is that the effect of Frey-
cinet's downfall will be felt first and most
strongly in an economic direction.
The Fallen Ministers Philosophers.
The fallen ministers have taken their i'll
fortune very philosophically, according to
all accounts. They had become incrustcd
so to speak, by the prolonged prosperity, and
gladly welcomed the prospect of breathing
again the bracing breezes of opposition. They
cracked jokes aud even perpetrated puns at
President Carnot's soiree at the Elysee, an
hour or two after their defeat in the Cham
Der. Even their wives professed exuberant
gaiety and danced with feverish vigor
The chroniclers do not state what dresses
these ladies' wore upon this historical oc-
casion, but Madame Carnot, whose husband |
happily does mot go OUT had on black /
velvet dress, with gray satin skirt under |
black lace. She had bows OF diamonds in |
he front and on the shoulders of the cor |
sage, and to complete the republican sim
olicity of her toilette she wore a diamond |
lara, and a necklace of briIliants.
