Some Serious Accidents.
All along the route people were gathered

sionally urging thom on with hearty
cheers. The men who dropped out or were
disabled along the way were overwhelmed
with offers of assistance, and many were
sent back TO the park in carriages
Ono of the most serious accidents of
tho day occurred near the finish. r. Lind

into the final stretch at a scorching pace
with half "A dozen ridors punched around

called pronounced his injuries very serious.
His shoulder was dislocatod and his body

The finish was an exciting ono. As the
cry wentup that the men were coming the
crowds surged forward and were beaten
back by the frantic police, who were bare
ly able to keep the way clear for the con

pieces Of newspaper work was accom-.
plisbed by the New York Times in ex-
posing the nonsense OF the targ prop
osition OF the New York Sun. The Sun
originated and exploited tariff Of its
own for months with a great deal OF
dialeetic skill The articles in the Sun
advocating uniform rate Of 80 per
cent. on all imports into this country
were entertaining aud amusing Finally,
when nobody was paying any attention
to the Sun's. skits. the Times took no
tice OF a declaration that uniform rate
Of 80 per cent. on everything imported
would revive industry and restore pros
perity, and stuck a ipin there There Is
about $3.50, 900. 600 imported under the
free list the increased cost OF raw ma
terlals on the Suns unique plan would
be $l6O, OO0O 600 a year. The Times asks
how that increase would revive and re-
store The Sun answers great many
questions that were not asked, but avoids
the question that was asked.
