MIssOURrs CAPITAL

The Subject Comes Up in Injunction Pro-
ceedings Against Secretary of State.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo, Aug. 2.-In the
circuit court in this city before Judge
Shackleford yesterday was devoted to
arguments upon the constitutionality
Of the proposed amendment to change
the permanent seat of government
from Jefferson City to Sedalia. The
proceedings grew out of petition for
injunction against the secretary of
state to enjoin him from publishing
the proposed amendment. The attor-
neys for the state filed demurrer and
the argument was on the demurrer.
If the decision is for the state or
against it the matter will be appealed
to the supreme court.
Hon J. A. Boutwell,, Judge j. E.
McKeighan of ST. Louis, and Attorney
General Frank Walker were present in
behalf of the secretary of state, while
Jefferson City was represented by
Mayor Edwin Silver, Joseph R. Ed
wards, A. NJ. Hough and others.
The debate was finished late last
evening. Judge Shackleford reserved
his opinion, but will probably declare
it some time next week.

NODOUBT ABOUT APPLES
The Crop VIII Be the Largest in Years

The Crop VIII Be the Largest in Years
and of the Very Finest Quality.
CHICAGO, Aug. AT the annual
meeting of the National Apple Ship
pers' association, with delegates pres
ent representing all apple growing
states from Maine to Colorado, it was
announced that the July report of the
department of agriculture indicating
short apple crop is entirely incorrect
and misleading. Local information in
their possession shows that IN New
England the crop is one of reasonable
proportions, and in New York, while
light in some districts, the aggregate
exceeds last year, both in quantity and
quality. West of the Allegheny noun
tains the crop is declared the largest
grown in any recent year and much
larger and of better quality than that
of last year, the only section being in
limited districts of Ohio and Michigan
and in Wisconsin and Minnesota.
Those in attendance at the meeting
unite in declaring the outlook to be for
the largest aggregate crop of best
quality in recent years.

Joe Patchen Leads Him Home
Easily at Cleveland.
Robert J. Was Driven Hard but
It Was Too Fast.
EVER PACED.
The Average Time is the Best
Ever Made.

CLEVELAND, Ohio, Aug. 2.ARobert
J., the king of the light harness horses,
met more than his match yesterday at
the Cleveland Driving park track, and
10, 900 people witnessed his humiliation.
This was the red letter day of the
Grand circuit meeting. The weather
was nearly perfect.
There were two regular events on
the card besides the unfinished 2:2O
pacing race, but the interest of course
conferred on the free-for-all, in which
the five famous PAGERS, Robert J., Joe
Patchen, Saladin, Directly and Mascot
were entered. Robert j., with his race
2:O11S, was the favorite. He was
prohibitive favorite before the second
heat.
When the horses scored for the first
eat Directly had the pole, but soon
after the start Robert j. forged to the
front, setting the pace for his compet-
itors and leading to the wire. Joe
Patehen was the only one that did not
cover the mile without a break. On
the stretch, when he was rapidly over
hauling Robert j., he struck a wet
piece of track, went into the air and
finished a close second. En-
Robert J. was driven hard, and it
was evident that he had done his best
when he made the wire in 2:O54. In
the second heat Patchen went to the
front and won, as he did in the re-
naming two heats, with ease, although
Geers did his utmost to urge Robert ].
to the front, using the whip without
stint. The bay gelding was fairly
beaten, however, in as pretty a race as
was ever seen, the time of the four
heats being the fastest ever paced con-
secutively IN race, the average being
a trife more than 2:O476.

Wife and Children Are Stranded ON n
Distant Island.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.-An of the
members of the Waller family are at
last out of Madagascar, but their mis-
fortune continues, and Mrs. Waller,
wife of the harrassed ex-consu1, is now
with her little children helpless and
stranded on an island on the other side
of the globe.
Hearing of the appearance of the
United States steamer Castine in Mad
agascar waters, the mother and chill
dren had made their way from the in
terror OF the island to the coast in the
hope of securing passage to the United
States, but met with failure and dis
appointment. Ethelbert G. Woodford,
an American engineer from New York,
who had been in the capital of the
Hovas on business, generously sue
cored them and paid their passage as
far as Mauritius. Mr.. Campbell, the
American consul there, could do
nothing more for them than to cable
the department an appeal for assis-
lance to enable the mother and chill
dren to reach the United States. The
department is una BILE to grant relief,
and it will be necessary for them to
look to friends in this country for aid.
