intending to get the $40 for which it called

made report of his loss, and a few min

The first move Of the Old Dominion and
Virginia Jockey clubs in testing the consti-
tutionality of the Maupln bill will probably
be made tomorrow, it is said, when an at
tempt will be made to accept bets on the
New Orleans and ST. Louis races on the
commission plan in the pool room at the St
Asaph track. 1t is stated that information
relative to the odds. names Of riders and
descriptions of the races will be received
from the tracks as usual, and money will
be received ostensibly for transmission to
the tracks up to post time the officials of
the two clubs holding that it is unconsti-
tutlonal to attempt to prohibit the trans
action of commission business in Virginia
Each better will be required to pay fee of
flve or ten cents. and sign order for his
money, to be transmitted to the track and
placed on whatever horse he desires to back
Although 1t Is expected that arrests will fol-
low. and the case be taken into court the
officials expect to secure their point at the
first hearing. If the decision Is against
them, however, they will appeal and then
try to secure an injunction against the au-
thorities, pending the decision by the higher

FuLrnLs1ENr OF A DREAM.
Letter ON the Body OF . Man Killed
ON the ID. and r. Railroad.


'Dear Brother: had dream about you
the other night which worries me great
deal. but pray it is not true. I dream
ed that l and two other men hauled you
home in 4 wagon. and was covered with
blood from head to foot"
The above is an extract from a letter
taken from the body Of George H. Wheeler.
who was found dead on the tracks of the
Baltimore and Potomac railroad near the
LIST street crossing about 10 O'Clock last
night by Watchman Hereford. The de-
ceased had been an employe of the railroad
Ior number of years, having entered the
service when he was nineteen years old.
He lived at 426k 9th street southwest.
Where his wife and five children received
\ the sad intelligence of the fatal accident
about the time they expected him to return
home from work.
The letter from which the quotation
given above was taken was written by w
I. Wheeler, brother Of the deceased, who
is clerk in the Elk Ridge post office. The
letter was dated March s. 1896. The dream
was fulfilled almost to the letter. The de-
ceased had been hauled home in a wagon
and his body was covered with blood from
head to foot.
Wheeler finished his work about $50
o'clock and left the Office of the yardmas-
ter to go home. How the fatal accident
happened no one knows. 1t was not known
that he had been killed until Hereford
walked along and had his attention attract
ed to something on the tracks, and when he
light of his lantern was flashed toward the
Object he discovered the horribly mutilated
corpse OF the man who only a short time
before had left his work and started home
to his wife and children. 1t is thoGgh.
likely that the unfortunate man stepped
out Of the way Of one train ard in the
way of another. Or that he passed some
cars parked on the track near the cross
ing and was unable to see the moving
train.
When the body was found word was sent
to the police. and one Of the railroad men,
thinking that life might not be extinct
called fc- the Emergency Hospital ambu-
lance.
The hospital ambulance and patrol
wagon reached the scene about the same
time. The doctors found that the man had
been dead some minutes. Police officers in
cnarge of the patrol wagon took charge of
the body. and by direction of the coroner
took it to ]. w. Lees undertaking estab-
l;shment.
An inquest will probably be held at Lees
tomorrow.

OLMSTEAD WILL CASE.
IL was Postponed on Account of the
Death Of Mr.. Webb.

1t Was Postponed on Account of the
Death of Mr.. Webb.
Judge Cox today postponed the Olmstead
will case until Monday next. The postpone
nient was made because of the death of Mr.
VIM. B. Webb, the father-in-law of Mrs
Linda Hutchinson Webb who Is contesting
the will of her sister, Mrs. John F. Olmstead
The case has been tried twice. the first trial
resulting in verdict setting aside the will.
That Judgment the Court of Appeals re-
versed. however, and the second trial, be-
fere Judge Bradley last fall, resulted in a
disagreement Of the jury. Mrs. Olmstead
was the daughter Of the late Hayward NJ.
Hutchinson, and the contested will made
her husband sole and absolute. beneficiary.
Her estate is said to be valued at not less
than 100000. The will is contested because,
as Mrs. Webb alleges, it was obtained
through fraud and undue influence. She also
contends that her sister was at the time,
June =. 1889, mentally incapable of making
valid deed or contract.
