WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

Hot Weather Lessons the Attendance
War Among the Reaper Men.
CHICAGO, July 15.--The continued ex-
cessiye warm weather is expected to
have some effect in lessening the attend
ance at the worlds fair. The weather
this morning was close and muggy, but
light clouds tempered the SUMS rays
somewhat.
About the only feature at the fair to-
day was the releasing this morning of
200 homing pigeons from the admins.
tration plaza. The result OF their flight
will be watched with much interest by
fanciers.
Chief Barrett of the electrical depart
ment has arranged for daily series of
lectures by experts in various divisions
of science, with practical illustrations Of
great benefit to students.
There ia war among the reaper and
harvester exhibitors, and they all, with
q single exception, have risen in revolt
against the plan of John Boyd Thatcher,
and united in an ultimatum withdraw
ing their exhibits from competition un-
less radical change is made in the
programme. The trouble which has
been brewing for several days, arose
over the announcement that harvesting
exhibitors must be prepared for field
trial July 18th, and the matter culmi-
mated in the ultimatum mentioned.
When the national commission assem-
bled today Commissioner Eiboeck of
Iowa said he learned the local directory
had decided to close the fair Sundays.
When the directory asked the commits
sion to open the gates Sundays, they dis
dained any pecuniary motives, saying
they merely wanted to benefit the
workingman. Now, as soon as they
found Sunday opening did not pay, the
directory voted to close. This showed
they did not care for the working peo-
pie, and he hoped the commission would
adopt resolution of censure.
The White Webster contest for seat
in the commission from New Mexico
then came up.
Adolph Wermuth. German imperial
commissioner to the worlds fair, tonight
entertained the exposition officials, his
brother commissioners and friends at an
elaborate farewell banquet previous to
his returning to Germany.
Commissioner Richard G. White was
uuseated today. The vote stood 26 to
"a in favor OF Webster, his opponent.

WASHINGTON PARK, Chicago, July 15.-
Rudolph won the money and Yo Tam
bien the glory in today's Columbus
handicap, conceding IL pounds to the
winner. 1t was the greatest race ever
run in the west. Yo Tambien was a
half length behind at the finish and
length behind came another western
horse. Ray s., who was half length in
front of Loudon, Hume fifth. Then fol-
lowed the eastern horses, Diablo and
Lamplighter. Michael came next and
then Morello, carrying the public's
money and an injured jockey, as we'll "a
limping from his own hurts as the result
of stumbling in false start. 1t is
matter OF eurmise what figure the
great Futurity winner might have cut
but for the accident. The worlds record
for q mile and three-sixteenthE was
equalled by Rudolph.
First-class fields started in every race
which accounts for the good time made.
The attendance was about $4,000. The
track was probably second slow.
The Columbus handicap, one and
three-eixteenth miles, for 3-year-olds and
upwards, was worth $4,000 to the win
ner, $4,000 to second and $4,000 to third.

THE CHOCTAW TROUBLE
CHIEF JONES HAULS HOKE SMITH
OVER THE GOALS.
Federal Interference in Tribal Affairs
Indignantly Resented-Execution
of the Nine Indians, How
ever. Suspended.

WASHINGTON, j July 15.- Secretary Hoke
Smith of the interior department today
received letter from Chief Jones OF the
Choetaw nation, in which he pointedly
expresses his views as to the interier-
ence of the government in the execu-
tion of nine Indians sentenced to be shot.
He says: "There lie no law or constitu-
tional provision authorizing the princi-
pal chief of the Choctaw nation to com.
mute or stay the sentence of any one
convicted of murder or sentenced to
death under the laws OF the nation.
However, as the result Of your letter
and conference with Colonel Passion,
Indian inspector, 1 have conferred with
the officials OF The nation, and we ar
advisab!e and polite to hsvs the execu-
tion of the aforesaid parties stayed by
the Judge of the court il,
which they were sentenced. This
course will leave very grave question
open, and will afford the convicted par
ties an opportunity to escape the mer-
tied punishment meted out to them. 1t
must not be thought for moment that
we concede and admit the right of your
department to obstruct the administre-
tion of justice and the enforcement of
our laws. l suppose statements were
made to your department that the trial
and conviction OF the aforesaid parties
was due to political influences, unjust
and not in accordance with the law.
Without the attention of the authorities
of the Choctaw nation being called to
such statements, to afford them the op-
portunity to refute the calumnies, an
intimation amounting practically to a
command was conveyed to me desiring
stay of sentence pending an investiga-
tion by your department. All these
parties were regularly and duly indicted
by the grand Jury; tried by a Jury;
ably represented by counsel, and con-
victed in accordance with the law.
Notwithstanding the self-government
guaranteed US by the law, the
United States has three times in sue
cesHion interfered with and obstructed
the administration and execution of the
law. However, being anxious and de.
sirous Of fostering amicable and friendly
relations with the United States, and to
aecertaiB where the line will be drawn
when the United States will cease to
interfere with the execution and admin
istration of our laws so we can govern
ourselves intelligently and feel assured
OF the effective and moral support of the
United States, concluded to request
the Judge of the aforesaid court to stay
the execution of the sentence until Au-
gust 4th, 30 that the fullest investiga-
ton could be made by you"

NAVAJO TROUBLE.

Serious Outbreak Averted by the Ar
rival of Troop.
ALBUQUERQUE, N. NJ, July 15.-What
threatened to be serious trouble among
the Navajoa. appears to be nipped in
the bud by the prompt arrival of troops
from Fort Wingate last night, at
Houck's tank, Ariz. 1t appears that
two Atlantic and Pacific railroad detec-
tives shot Navajo Indian who resisted
arrest on the charge Of throwing q
switch. The detectives were surrounded
by band of angry Navajos and sought
refuge in the store of j. W. Bennett, at
Houck's tank. Bennett volunteered to
take a message from the store TO the
railroad telegraph Office, asking aid from
the railroad company, and was shot in
the head while attempting to do so.
The Indians held the detectives prison
ers within the store until the arrival OF
the troops on special train.

The hIonon's Cut Has Knocked the

CHICAGO July 15.-The action OF the
Monon railroad yesterday in putting
in rates a little over cent mile for
the round trip from Louisville and In
dianapolis practically knocked the bot
tom out of rates all over the Central
Traffic association territory. 1t is more
than probable that 1-cent basis will be
adopted, and they may 60 even lower,
but it is doubtful. From present indi-
cations there is no way in which the de-
moralization of rates throughout the
territory can be avoided.

A RUSSIAN NAVAL STATION.

The Establishment OF One Mt New York
Not Thought improbable.
WASHINGTON, July 15.- official in
formation has been received by this
government of the intention of Russia to
establish naval station on our eastern
coast with headquarters at New York,
but it ia not doubted that such is the
case. 1t is not believed the establish
ment of Russian naval station on our
coast is of any warlike import, but
merely part of general scheme OF hav-
ing convenient stations in different parts
OF the globe. The story was denied by
the Russian consul-general, Clarovsky,

eating circumstances recommended that
no further action be taken.

At the end of the choir stalls, on the

voice TO be directed in close contiguity

further than that. Indeed, Maude and

the summer; and other circumstances,
so she wrote me, have been favorable
for quiet, enjoyable season. Among
the circumstances aforesaid were
a couple Of town lots lying
adjacent to my URcle Henry's res

them. Nobody in his senses could do
that. But he has promised TO see that
the owner Of them is decently buried

tai part-a euphemism for dying In
Quininehurst. This surmise gave Uncle
Henry certain rights In the land; aud,
as he had succeeded in pasturing his
COW where there was something 10 eat
he offered the town lots TO Maude for a
tennis court.
