Spread Dismay.

Inc serving Oh tne lnlunctlOu On Iu0
track authorities yesterday afternoon
shortly before o'clock by Sheriff Veitch
spread dismay and CONSERVATION among
the adherents OF winter racing. This morn
ing race track people were utterly in the
dark as to what would be done. The in
junction served on the track was compre-
hensive and rigid in its terms.
1t restrained the track from racing, MAX
ing books. recording, selling or entering
pocls, bets on mutuals. directly or indirect
ly. upon any races, trials Of speed or en-
durance Of horses or other animals upon
grounds owned or controlled by them in the
state of Virginia. Up to / o'clock today IL
was the general impression in Alexandria
and in this city that the racing would not
be continued today.
Judge Norton of Alexandra, who is as
sociated with Attorney General Scott on
behalf of the state of Virginia, stated this
morning that the injunction was issued on
complaint of the state by direction of Gov.
O'Ferrall. President Jones Of the Jockey
Club and Edmund Burke, the attorney,
left for Richmond early this morning to
see what could be done.
Racing Continued.
Early in the afternoon quite little crowd
gathered at the Alexander Island track, but
without any definite idea as to whether
there would be racing or not.
Then came a short but clear dispatch for
secretary lOnlphinS from tllCninOHU, Sl5ueQ
by President Jones. 1t simply said: Go on
with the races" This news spread quickly
and awakened considerable enthusiasm.
Neither badges nor programs were sold at
the tracks, until it was announced that the
path was clear, and then the days racing
was taken up and carried through il
nothing had happened. Secretary TomphlnS
said in regard to the matter that he juged
the dispatch from Richmond meant that
matters had been legally adjusted.
The officers Of the association, he said,
were opposed to racing in inclement
weather and had only yielded because Of
the opportunities of the horse owners.
Secretary Tompkins intimated his belief
that the injunction was inspired by the
management of another track.
No Knowledge.
The Virginia Jockey Club authorities ex-
pressed an utter lack of knowledge OF the
injunction proceedings in the case Of the
Old Dominion. Secretary Mcintyre Of the
Virginia Jockey Club told Star reporter
today that he knew absolutely nothing OF
the Injunction until he had read 1t in the
papers.

A Disastrous Fire Occurs in a Livery
Barn at Detroit, Mich.
FIVE OR SIX MEN BURNED.
Only Two Horses Were Burned to Death

Being Unlniured Loss
About $4,000.

DETROIT, Mich, July lO-Fire started
in Cases livery barn, four-story brick
structure, No. Al Congress street, short
ly after , o'clock this morning. Two
hours later when the firemen had sue
ceeded in gaining control of the flames
the barn was a complete wreck; five
men, at least had been burned to
death or smothered, one fatally in
jured by jumping from the burning
building, two horses burned to death,
and $4,000 worth Of property de-
stroyed Seventy-five head of horses
were stabbed in the building, all of
them, with the exception of three, in
the basement.
The fire originated on the first floor,
near box stall occupied by the trot-
ting horse Domino, which was recently
seized by the customs department for
illegal entry from Canada. The horse
was gotten out safely by William
Douglass, one of the barn men who was
on watch at the time. He also tried to
rescue Ethel G, another trotter, owned
by @. A. Graves, of the Hotel Cadillac,
but in this he was unsuccessful. Lit
tie Mack, PAGER owned by George
Case was gotten out after being badly
burned.
The barn men occupied quarters on
the fourth floor and the flames spread
so rapidly that they were unable to
escape by the stairway. Ladders were
raised and most of them escaped by
them. One of the men, John Cummins,
became frenzied and after throwing
out bundle of clothing, he threw
himself headlong out of one of the
windows. He landed almost at the
feet of the fremen who were fastening
to his rescue. He struck on the right
side of his head and his skull was
crushed in. lie was removed to Harper
hospital where he is still in an uncon'
scious condition.
It was after o'clock before the fire
men were able to enter the building.
They Immediately made their way tc
the fourth floor. In a room in the
northeast corner were found the
bodies of John Shaw and John Bow

were no marks of fire on the bodies
Thomas Webb, who slept in room in
the northwest corner, was also sutfo

These two unfortunates had evidently
awakened and tried to escape, only t.
be caught in the flames. Both bodie
were badly burned. The identity OF

large three-story block and began q
lively stock brokerage business, aggre-
eating over 50, 900, 900 in the last year.
Recently there were suspicious of
crookedness and Monday night he dis
appeared. 1t is believed by some that
he has committed suicide, but most
people think that he has fed with his
ill-gotten wealth.
Yesterday forged mortgages for $780,
900 were sent here from Dayton, O..
These were followed by bogus bonds
for SIS, 900 from the Farmers bank of
fredericksburg, and for Sl9, 900 from
the Michigan Insurance Co. There is
showing already of over 800, 900
fraudulent bonds held by the banks
and money lenders, and it is believed
the returns are not allin. These bonds
are handsomely Autographed, includ-
ing the official signature to them.
The audacity of the forgeries is mag
niGed by the fact that the bonds were
all on counties and towns within a
days carriage drive from Urbana.
Lewis sold none of these bonds, but
used them as collateral for loans. He
told friend not long ago that he was
in debt 100000 for bonds. 1t is be-
lieved that at least half of these are
