Good Crops assured.

DEs MONIES, Iowa, Aug. 23.-The best
rain OF the season has fallen all over Iowa
IN the last twenty-four hours. Reports
from all over the State indicate the fall
has been from to 3inches. There was no
WIND or electrical disturbances to do dam
age. The storm was badly needed. 1t is
the hrst rain of account in a month, and
corn has been already much damaged by
Drought. This rain has been the best in
the Parts of the State which needed it
most, except the extreme southeast, where
the fail was very light. 1t assures good
corn crops even if there is no more rain.

PEORIA, ILL, Aug 23-The directors of
the Western Association of Baseball Clubs
continued its session to-day. The Omaha
franchise was taken from Dave Rowe, and
the Denver and Springfield clubs dropped
from the league, which will be continued
to the close of the season as a six-club
affair. Rowe is indebted to the league to
the extent of 5000, and the feeling against
him is intense. A new schedule has been
arranged which provides for a series of four
games at each point instead of three as
heretofore.

One Reason Why Lucky BatdU1Vs Mare
Failed to Win a Race.
SARATOGA, N. Y, Aug. 23.-There
promises to be another big shake-up In
Lucky" Baldwin's stable in few days
and it will not be surprising to learn that
the Jockey Club has q case on Its hands
The cause OF the trouble was the miserable
performance.of Rey Ell Santa Anita in the
Spencer handicap, in which he was dis
gracefully beaten by Sir Excess and lara
:goza. Isaac Murphy rode the colt, and il
was he who first went to Mr.. Baldwin and
told him he thought the horse had been
doped. Baldwin was OF the same
opinion. and between them they started
little investigation, which was unfrultful
as far as could be learned.
The California millionaire went to his
trainer, Sam Hildreth, for an explanation
and the latter said the reason the colt
had performed so poorly was because
Murphy was drunk. Baldwin hunted up
Murphy and satisfied himself that the
jockey was sober, aud he then proceeded
to talk to his trainer in manner the lat
ter did not relish in the least. The Cali
fornia millionaire was very wrathy and
openly stated that he candidly believed
that Rey ell Santa Anita had been dosed and
that it was done by some one In the
stable. There was something wrong with
the colt, for Murphy drew the whip on
him before three-eighths OF q mile was
run, but he never responded, and kept
dropping out of it and was beaten by
Zaragoza for second money. Murphy
sought out Baldwin as soon as he was
dressed and told him his opinion of
affairs.
Baldwin and Jockey Murphy made a
statement to a reporter yesterday con-
corning the race. Baldwin said:
II felt suspicious about the race all the
time. The night before l was talking to
Wheelock, the bookmaker, and he told me
he was going to lay against my horse to
the extent of $4,000 or $4,000. l asked him
why, and he said he felt sure that Sir
Excess would beat him. | know there is
nothing in the world, bar accident, that
can make Sir Excess beat my horse, and
told him so, but he only laughed. AT the
track also heard some nasty talk, but did
not pay much attention to it at the time,
though | did not like the manner in which
he went back in the betting. Before they
had gone half a mile | knew there was
something wrong, but as yet l have not
been able to learn what 1t was. intended
bringing the matter before the stewards
here, only I had arranged to ship my
horses away. However. don't intend to
let the matter rest here"
Murphy's statement was to the effect
that the horse had evidently been "doped,"
for he did not have particle of speed and
did not take the bit in his usual manner.
He said that any horse that could beat
Clifford in the manner he did few days
previous would surely show speed at some
part of the race
