An American Horse owner in Trouble
over In berlin.
BEnLM, May 13.-Chsrges OF fraudulent
practices brought against the American
trottinR horse owner, Robert F. Knesbss
have been the sensation Of the sporting world
during the past week and they have natur-
ally aroused great interest among the mem.
bsrs Of the American colony In thi9 city.
The chief witness against Knsebes, who is
ons of the best known trottinR men in the
western portion OF the United states, was.
strange 10 say, an American named Heh-
ner. who accompanied him here as partner
IN tho tfottlng business. Kneebos aud
hehner ran the mnFe Nellie Kueebes jointly
in England up TO March 22. when they
separated In Berlin. In this city she two
horsemsn had dispute about money mat
ters which eventually resulted In the eK-
plosion which caused the charges OF fraud
TO be made against Kuesbes. On the
day following. Kneebes, while drink
ing al the American bar in this city qua
relied with Prince emith. a wsll-known
owner OF trotting horses. This dispute
neatly ended in a personal encounter be-
tween the two horBemen, but they were
separated by mutual friends. Smith was
evidently very much anaered at certain re-
mafkB made TO him by Knsebes, and 10
seems smith was suspicious of tho methods
OF hneebss in trottinq his horses. Shortly
afterwards he commenced on inquiry into
thaIeeent career Of kneebes upon the turf
he readily obtained from Hedner, who was
also very much against kneebes. infoTma
tion in rsRai d 10 the mare Bethel. which
eventually led TO the prosecution of
knesbes.
The amount of money which Kneebes is
alleged TO have obtained By fraud does not
exceed 6,OO0 marks.
