"WIGGLERS."
Robert J. and John R. Gentry
Pace in 2,04
And Gentry Won, though Judges
Gave Race to Robert.
New Base Hall Association Formed 10 Play
rs Cent Games.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, oct. lS.-The match
race at Cumberland park, today, between
Robert j. and John Il. Gentry, proved
farce. Gentry bad the pole. Gentry was
in front at the start, butw coon overtakt II
by Robert J who showed the way 20 the
stretch. With the exception Of few
seconds on the back stretch, when Geers
got length the best of it, the horses
were locked the entire distance. They
were head and head when straight for home
was reached, and il could be seen both
GeerJ and Mcllenry were driving as they
never had before. The "Wigglers" came
down the stretch like streaks Of lightning,
neither gaining on the other. At the eighth
pole Geers went to the whip, and the cry
Robert J is beaten" was ehouted from
the grand stand.
Gentry pulled under the wire at least a
head in front of Robert j., but after long
delay the judges decided il a dead heat.
The unjustness OF the decision was appar-
ent and the announcement was received
v ith a storm Of Kisses. Geers admitted he
had been beaten by a head, and that belief
was conCurred in by liamlin, owner of Rob-
fractional time Of which was, 81 I-2,
Oh l-2, 33.
Gentry struck himself during the heat,
inhicting an ugly cut on the Eastern of his
left leg, and upon the advice of two yeteri-
naTians the horse was drawn. Robert j.
went the second heat, accompanied by run
uer, in 2O3 3-4, and was awarded the
race.

ALL The EVIDENCE
Indicates that a Genuine Train Robber is in
Captivity.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-A special from
Cumberland, Nd, says: Detectives Alex
ander, Hind and Faulkner, accompanied by
Assistant Superintendent Hvldt of the
Adams Express Company and Express
Messenger Crutcbfeld, who was on the
tram that was robbed at Quantico, arrived
10 this city yesterday and at once proceeded
TO the Second National Bank, where the
money taken from G. H. Searcey, the man
implicated in the train robbery was held
aud proceeded to examine it. Mr.. Heidi;
found that the greenbacks were perforated
the same as the money handled by the
Express Company. The money was placed
in an envelope used by the company, and it
vas found that two pinholes fitted exactly
those in the envelope.
A pair of gold glasses which were in the
possession of the robber, have been ideni-
lied as those which were taken from the
cars. The trousers found in Searcey's grip
have been identified by the express agent
as those worn by the robber while in the
car at Quantico.
Messrs. Richmond and McBeth have bsen
retained by Searcey as counsel and an
affort will be made to have the man re-
leased on a writ of habeas corpus this after
aoon.
State Attorney Sloan has received tele-
gram from Governor Brown, asking him
to appear at the trial and have Searcey
neld a reasonable time, so as to allow the
rtquisition papers which have been issued
by Gov. O'Ferrall, time to reach hin and
De endorsed by him.

ILLEGAL ACTS
Brought 10 Mind by the Peanut Politics" Of
Administration Officials.

WASHINGTON, Oct. lS.-The persistence
of the treasury officials in publishing the
case sgainst Mr.. Morton for employing a
coachman under an alleged contract is
arousing Republicans here. Mr.. Morton's
coachman is a household servant, ard
therefore exempted under the provisions Of
the contract labor Law. No one knows this
better than the secretary of the treasury.
A SIMILAR case was tried not long since in
the District of Columbia sgaiust promin-
ent real estate dealer named Earle, who
brought an English coachman bIck with
him from Europe. The district attorney,
now Judge of the Washington bench, re-
fused TO continue the prosecution, saying
that Mr.. Earle's man was sevrant and
therefore entitled to admission to this coun-
try. 1t is therefore plain that the case
brought against Mr.. Morton is deliberate
ly planned political job. For election pur-
poses, however, it is believed to be good
enough.
The Republicans of Washington are sur
prised that members of an administration
SO vulnerable as this have dared TO invite a
criticism of their own illegal acts. The
use of government carriages by treasury
efcials for private purposes, in violation
of law, the employment of department
messengers as servants in livery, the order
ing here and there of lighthouse boats and
revenue cutters for picrics, to the neglect
of legitimate work, are all notorious here.
Secretary Herbert's juukeiing on the
Dolphin is q scandalous episode not a month
Did, while Hoke Smith and Bissell have
been travelling over the country on private
cars and at government expense until the
work of their departments has run riot in
he hands of incompetent subordmates. All
this and more is to be recited in resolutions
for the investigation of Congress immedi-
ately after the assembling the House.

by Forgery.

PARIS, Oct. lS.-In the Oxford supreme
court, Melvine B. Morey was convicted of
uttering forgery but sentence was sus-
pended during good behavior. The fraud
ulent marriage was annulled. The peculiar
phases of this case have already given it
wide celebrity. Wishing to marry Anna
M. Cross, l3-year-old girl, Morey applied
to the Albany town clerk for a marie ge
license. The clerk refused to grant
one without the written consent
of Miss Cross father and prepared paper
for Mr.. Cross to sign. Morey soon re-
turned with what purported to be MIR Cross
ignature, obtained the license and married
the girl. He took his child-sife to a log
abin which had been used and deserted by
wood choppers, in the heart of the great
forest at Stoneham, and in this unique hab-
'ation they passed their honeymoon
Morey. rs aledged procured bis
household furnishings by methods which
caused his incarceration later on the charge
of larceny, The arrest of Morey ended
this modern version of the "Babes in the
Woods" Morey was indicted later for
forgery and for uttering forgery, as the
child admitted she affixed her fathers
purported signature to the paper

Morey s attorney filed demurrer against
the Indictment, but the demurrer was over
ruled. Exceptions were filed to the ruling,
carrying the case to law curt, which gave
judgment for the state.

MISTAKE

Troops Recalled from Court House
and Another Plot Prevented.
Large Number Of fal! River Viewers Still
Reiu!e to work.

MCkEEsPoRT, Pa, Oct. lS.-Dynamite
was placed on the track of the Baltimore
& Ohio Railroad, at Long Run Bridge, last
evening, but serious wreck was narrowly
averted. A stick of dynamite was tied TO the
rail. The Bissell accommodation which
arrived here at los 7. NJ, encountered it.
The explosion damaged the track and tore
off one of the front wheels from the engine.
The passengers were badly frightened, and
somewhat shaken up, but no one was
seriously injured. No motive can be as
signed for the deed. II is believed the
explosive was placed on the track to wreck
the eastern express train, but as the e1plo,
sive was placed on the wrong track, the
express escaped an almost certain plunge
over the high bridge.

WEkvEhS DETERMINED.
They Act Peculiarly, and work for Low Wages
Rather Than High.

FALL RIVER, Mass, Oct. lS.-Contrary
to the expectation of manufacturers and
much to the surprise OF the public in gen.
eral, the striking weavers continue to man
fest a decided opposition to resumiDg W orr
under the terms offered 10 weeks ago.
This morning there are hardly 10000 out
of 80 GOO looms in operation. In some in
stances mills paying lowest wages and op-
Grating the poorest looms are the ones
where weavers rushed in to their old places.
No. ? Hargaryes mill is perfectly idle
despite the well-known fact that wages
there average 10 per cent higher than in
mill No. /.
Secretary Whitehead says the weavers
have no idea of giving up the fight for some
days.
Tomorrow morning the strikers will
march TO the eastern part of the city headed
by brass band, and will endeayor if possi
bic to induce a further resistance among
the weavers who have gone back to their
cid places. The union is doing nothlng
toward etfecting a settlement except en-
CouragiDg the members not to return al
present prices.
Secretary Housewife says some steps
would be taken Immediately to shut down
The mills for another period of weeks were
1t not that the mill men appreciate the fact
that 10000 of ,heir employees are willing to
work at the terms offered while 5000 say
they will not work.
They do not want to punish tie 20,0OO
although they agree that there is very lit
tie money to be made by running under
present market conditions. Margin has
fallen from So to 7J cents since the spin
ners accepted the compromise reduction
and demand for product does not increase
with the decline in prices.
