WHEEL RECORDS LOWERED.
Zeigler and Foster Break the Coast
Mile Record

SAN JOSE, July 2S.-Otto Zeigler and
Walter Foster. the champion cyclers of the
coast, demonstrated to the San Jose public
what they could have done had cool heads
predominated at the electric light meet
given by the Garden City Cyclers last night
on their four-lap track in this city. Both
Zeigler and Foster were advertised to go
against the mile records, and would have
gone had it not been for the hotheadedness
of some Of the track officials. who refused
to consolidate two heats of the mile handi-
cap so that the record-brsskers could have
the advantage Of pacemakers.
At 10 o'clock this morning both Foster
and Zeigler appeared on the track in rcadi-
ness to make an onslaught on the coast
records for one mile. Foster started the
ball rolling by breaking the flying mile
record, his time being 2:07 3-5. He was
paced by members of the Rambler team.
whc learned the art Of pacemaking from
the Eastern cracks who visited this coast
early in the spring.
Then Zeigler was sent against the mile
standing start record, which he brought
down to 2:09 fat. The pacemaking
throughout was surprise to the specta-
tors, great many of whom had never
seen pacemaking. Both records are Off
cial, as the required officials were present
at the trials and signed the necessary
pa pers to make the records stand with

BELMONT's MENAGERlE.
His Vast Collection of Rare Birds and
Animals,

New YORK, July 2S.-Just what Oliver
Hazard Perry Belmont is about to do with
a large collection Of rare and interesting
wild animals and birds that arrived to-
day on the steamship Elysia from Gibral-
tar is a matter of speculation.
Mr.. Belmont is in Newport, and his
clerks and others interested profess an
amazing g ignorance concerning the ultimate
use of the menagerie. But from the ex-
tent and nature of the menagerie now
aboard the Elysia at Union Stores, Brook
lyp, it looks much as if Mr.. Belmont is
about to forswear horses and enter use
full sphere in the travelling show business.
This Belmont menagere was whispered
about in certain circles before the Elysia
swung to its anchor off quarantine.
Upon the deck of the steamship, amid
ships, the menagere was slowed away in
a monument of crates and cages. There
are three sacred cows. six sacred bulls, two
deer Zone a noble buck), doe, four mon
gooses, six Indian partridges, eight peas
ants. eight cranes, two mouse deer, about
as big as black and tan dog, Indian kites
and Chinese ducks, blood-heart doves, a
squirrel something after cat in size, some
jungle fowl and golden pigeons. They
came from Singapore.

SNAP FOR COURT CLERKS.
Drawing the Big Interest on Moneys
of LitigantS.

CHICAGO. July est has been the Gus
tom In the courts of Cook County for years
that whenever money is in dispute the
amount should be left In the hands of the
clerk Of the court pending the settlement
OF the question. In this way. since large
amount Of disputed money is never called
for by the successful itlgants, there has ac-
cumulated in the hands OF the clerks of
the courts a sum of over 5000 900. This
sum is regarded as the trust fund by the
clerks, and they regularly draw interest
Oh it. and when their term of Office expires
turn it over to their successors. There are
cases on record where more than $4,000
in one lump has been placed in the hands
of the clerks of the courts and never been
called for afterward.
In 1889 an action arose between the
Pullman Company and the Baltimore &
Ohio Railroad and other companies as to
the ownership Of $4,000. According to
the usual custom this amount was turned
into the city court and placed in charge of
Circuit Clerk Best Subsequently, in 1891.
the attorneys stipulated that the sum
should be placed in bank and draw 21a
per cent interest. An order was entered
thereon by Judge Horton to this effect
and filed with the minute clerk of the
court. The case has just been settled by
the Supreme Court, and now it is discov-
cred that Circuit Court Clerk Frank Gaul-
ter has no certificate of deposit, nor did be
or his predecessor, Mr.. Best, know any
thing about the order requiring the deposit
TO be made. In the meantime the money
with all others in custody of the clerk had
been on deposit drawing interest. The
interested parties now claim that the Cir
cult Court clerk Is liable for the 215 per
cent interest on the money. The attorney
for one of the com plainants has ra sed the
point that it is no part of Mr.. Gaulter's
duty to act as custodian of such funds, and
that if he did SO it was merely in a per-
sonal and not an official capacity, and he is
entitled to compensation for his services.
The matter was to have come up before
Judge Horton this morning, but has been
postponed.

THE EXODUS TO EUROPE.
Nothing Like 1t Was Ever Known
Before.


CHICAGO, July 28.-General Manager
Whiting of the Conrad steamship line in
Chicago, who has just returned from New
York, said:
''The exodus to Europe which began in
the early spring still continues aud iu-
creases. Nothing like it has been known
before. 1t is not con fined to steerage pas
sengers. The increase in cabin passage is
in full proportion to the steerage business.
The Pavonia of our line left Boston last
Saturday with 528 steeraas and 200 cabin
passengers. Every line will be taxed to
its utmost during the present summer.
When you come to telling how many peo-
pie are going abroad it is not easy to do
For a rough calculation / would sag there
were ten lines each carrying 500 steerage
passengers. From that at a mere guess l
would say that there were 10000 or SO, 900
steerage passengers leaving this county
every month. As to the character of these
passengers they are the best class of me-
chanies and working people.
while no one knows absolutely the
cause of the exodus, one does not have to
look far to find several plausible explana-
tions. Cabin passengers are more numer-
Gus because some people are just return ing
TO Europe from the exposition and others
going abroad because the exposition de-
tanned them here last summer. A great
many Of the steerage passengers, when
times were good, sent money to their
friends abroad, and now when times are
hard here they go abroad to live on those
friends for awhile. But. after all, there
is more or less mystery about the move

ARREST OF A FRAUD.
Posed as a Correspondent and Com
mitted Forgeries.

mIlIeQ fOTRerIeS.
NIAGARA FALLS, n. Y, July 28.-Last
winter a well-dressed young man came TO
this city and gave his name as George w.
Middleton. He said he was correspond
ent of the London Graphic and that he
had been commissioned to prepare an
elaborate illustrated article on the great
power tunnel and the electrical generation
and transmission schemes. He worked
himself into the good graces of Secretary
Rankin of the Cataract Construction
Company, and was given many liberties.
He was a fluent talker, and became very
popular about the town. In some way
Secretary Rankin had his suspicious
aroused by the actions of Middleton.
and he cabled the Graphic for
information about him. The Graphic an
swered that it had no such man In its
employ. Middleton was thereafter ex-
Guided from the offices of the Cataract
Company. Not to be daunted he began to
cultivate Mr.. Shoelkepfs of the other
power and announced that he had secured
several big factories from other cities to
come here and build new works. Secre-
tary Rankin Investigated these reports
also and found each one to be fictitious.
Middleton then began forging checks for
a few hundred dollars each. using the
names of Schoelkeps and some other
prominent contractors. He disposed of
these checks successfully and until a few
days ago there was no suspicion he had
been the forger. Finally the forgeries
were traced to him and he was arrested
last night at ball in the International
Hotel. The police will not state the aggre-
gate amount of his forgeries. but the
amount is known to be several thousand
dollars
