favorites, a second choice and an out
slider winning.

the medium of strong play, opened up a
big gap, but in the stretch the faYorite
came through and won as he pleased
In the last race Chicot a heavily played
second choice won all the way through.
Tommie Rutter was coming fast Ia the
stretch and would probably have won,
but swerved across the track, and third
was the best he could do.
Jack Bradley won the third in q. drive
from Johnson. 1t was the jockey and not
the horse that won.
Dave Gideon was visitor at the track
to-day.

heavy. A summary follows:

DECISIVE RESULTS LACKING.
The Government Operations Not
Very Effective as Yet.


Very Effective as Yet.
Havana, Jan. H.-The government oper-
atoms against the rebels are being rapid
ly pushed, but as yet do not appear to be
productive of any decisive results.
The rebel commander-in-chief, Maxine
Gomez, who has repeatedly been reported
to be attempting to make his way back
to the eastern part of the island, is still
somewhere a snort distance east OF the
railway line running from Havana 10
Ratabano.
The rebel leader Lacret is reported to be
near Jovelanos, in the province of Matan-
zas.
Antonio Maceo, the second in command
of the rebel forces, entered Mantua, a
town in the western part of the province
of Pinar del Rio on Jan. %. He was ac-
companed by half his command. The
other half remained at Escortina, while
the wounded men belonging TO Maceo'
force were at Guane. 1t is believed here
that Maceo's men will be compelled to
abandon Guane and Escortina owing to
the activity of Gen. Luque.
The Marquis Apezteguia, president of
the conservative party, has resigned that
office for business reasons. He is mana
ger of the Constantia sugar estate one
of the largest on the island which is
owned by an American syndicate.
