Cleveland Says He NAV Disregard In
dorsements BY State DeleCations

WASHINGTON. March 2O.-There is
discomfort and murniuring among the
politicians this morning and sound
Of breaking states. President Cleve-
land has intimated that the publica-
ton from time to time that certain ap-
pointments are definitely settled be-
cause the State delegations get to-
gether and agree on slate and pro.
mulgate it are premature. The Presi-
dent hold that the endorsement of an
entire State delegation does not neces-
sarily settle a nomination nor deny to
the citizens of a community the right
to fair hearing on the merits of an
applicant.
MIR. Cleveland said to a caller this
morning that it was presuming a great
deal for a State delegation and few
leading politicians to come together in
an upstairs room in Washington and an
nounce nomination wholly regard
less of the local sentiment. The effect
of the Presidents position will be to
render many appointments that have
been announced as certain to occur by
State delegations as doubtful and re-
open the field for competition.

port. After this was completed there was
another little period of activity, again fol
lowed by dull market and prices ruling
slightly under the closing figures OF last
week. The market started strong at II

the visible exhibit to nc and 1850, with
prices at midday around 76$Ic and 1859

There are no important speculative fac

The pork market showed unmistakable

hearty soc from the close on Saturday The
business was largely confined to Nav. and
sales were at Sis to Sl777I5 to SiS 90 to

about 81 per brl recovery from the low

BOB TAILS GREAT RACE.

A Turf Event That Gave "a New Phrase
to the Language.
The phrase, THAT beats Bob Tail"
is not uncommon even now in many
parts of the country, especially in the
South. Its origin is traceable to a race
which occur. ed about $780, or shortly
before that year, on the famous Fair
field track on the Merhanicsville turn
pike, near Richmond, Va. In those
days Rob Poindexter lived in Rich
mond. He was a sporting man, wore
fine clothes, and owned number of
horses. Among his animals was one
he named Pizarro, plain bay
gelding, with black name and
tail, the latter bobbed short. There
was nothing extraordinary about the
horse, and nobody looked upon him as
"a racer. But Poindexter took notion.
that he could run. He used to drive
Pizarro about Richmond hitched to
buggy. On the day that he was ad-
vertised to appear on the track q great
crowd was present, and the excl ement
ran high, for a good deal of money
had been put up on the other horses.
To the establishment of every body
Pizzarro beat every horse on the track,
and the people went fairly wild.
Bobtailed Pizarro never made much
of d record. He won two or three
races and then went to pieces. For
years afterwards when anything ex-
traordinary happened in that section
it was said of it, THAT beats Bob
