was large, although the air was sultry
and eXertion was anything but pleas
ant. The attraction was the time
honored Withers stakes for three-year-
olds at mile, with the unbeaten Domi-
no making his first appearance this
season in a race against Henry of
Navarro and Dobbins, two of his chief
competitors, as a 2-year-old. The only
one of the crack 3-year-olds needed to
make the battle the greatest of the
year was Senator Grady, but he is be-
ing saved for the Chicago derby.
When the flag fell, Garrison took
three lengths the worst of the start,
but got in a comfortable position as
soon as they began to climb the hill.
Mamma was then in front, with Dobbins
following. Hhenry of Navarro next
and Domino rafting along in fourth
place. These positions were kept until
the head of the stretch, when Taral
carried Domino in next to the rail, and
let out a link.
Down the hill, the five horses came,
trifle ahead. Here Nahma weakened
and was out of the race, while Dobbins
was under the whip. 1t was all over
for all but Domino and Henry of Ma
varre at the last sixteenth, and the
riders were driving their mounts fol-
ward for all they were worth; but, try
as hard as he might, Garrison could
not gain an inch off the black colt in
front of him, and the race was over
with Domino a head in front. 1t was a
grand race and showed that at least
one Hillyer can stay.

Rumors That the Income Tax Fea
ture VIII Be Modified

Washington, June 12.-There is some
prospect of important changes in the
Internal revenue part of the tariff bill
and of further notifications of the in
come tax feature. The finance commit
tee has been considering a, suggestion
looking to the dropping of all the pure
ly administrative part of the bill which
would result in leaving the present ad-
ministrative law on the statute books
The question has been under further
consideration today, the long speeches
made on the floor of the Senate rem
fdering it unnecessary for the members
of the committee ito be present, but no
decision has yet been reached.
The committee is also undecided
what, if any, changes will be made in
the income tax but is considering
propositions for it's. modification which,
it is believed, will make the bill ac-
ceptable in this respect to Democratic
Senators who oppose the tax

THE FUN HAS BEGUN.

Chicago, June 12.-The excursion agree
ment of the Western Passenger. associa-
ton was given staggering blow today
by the news from st. Louis that the
Alton was making a rate of $40 for the
round trip between st. Louis and Den
yer, for the convention of the Homeopathy
society-a cut of $3.50 from the regularly
authorized rate.
The Missouri Pacific at once put on the
$40 rate on hearing the Alton had cut I'M
der the tariff and the Atchison lost no
time in following suit.
The other Denver lines also joined in
without loss of time.
General Passenger Agent Charlton, of
the Alton, denied today, in the most en-
phatic manner, that the rates were being
cut by his line, but the st. Louis agents
of the other lines were positive and unan-
imous in their charges against the Alton.

bounds, but the prospects are. not bright

strength to the market. On the other
hard, the state reports of Kentucky and
Michigan were quite favorable.
The Kansas weekly weather bulletin also
reported a well-distributed rainfall and
the Baltic shipments were much larger.
The partial settlement of the coal strike,
however, was looked upon as bullish
factor and the declines were quickly re-
covered.
Corn was active and stronger within

wheat caused the strength.
oats were active and higher on the
dry weather and the strength in wheat

The bulge in grain and fair buying

advanced with few exceptions. Trading

time past Compared with last night,
July pork is 80 cents higher, July lard
