Promise of Renewed Activity at the
Stock Yards Abbatoir.
The fatted calf, as we'll as the we'll
larded porker, the gamey mutton and
the juicy lamb will soon be offered up
as sacrifice to the people of New
Brighton. The number Of the slaugh-
tered ones will be as great as they
ever were in the history of that pack
ing suburb. and this resumption of
business in the sometime vacant alb
batoirs Is said to be but the forerunner
Of business on an immensely larger
scale, to be conducted by reorganized
stock yards company, which is expected
to take hold and make matters boom in
the fall.
When the Twin City Packing com
pany and C. ]. Alloway were compelled
to reduce their business to asmaller
scale and remove to the Minnesota
Transfer, the New Brighton plant stood
vacant for a time. This was a state of
a1alrs that was not pleasing to Re-
ce1ver Roby, and he at once entered
into negotiations looking to the resump-
ton of operations. He succeeded in
persuading Peter Van Hoven, of St.
Paul, formerly manager Of the Twin
City company, to organize new COM
pany and resume slaughtering at New
Brighton on as large a scale at least.
as the old company. Van Hoven did
not have quite as much capital as he
needed, and it was to assist him that
Mr.. Robey applied to the courts and
was granted permission to borrow
$4,000
Mr.. Robey has also received assur-
ances from number of buyers that
they will be on hand to- purchase cattle
at the yards. This will make the mar
Ket as good as 1T ever was, pending the
reorganization Of the stock wards com
pany, when it is expected that business
Will be conducted on a scale of suf-
fcient magnitude to make Minneapo-

very respectable cattle market.

How a st. Paul Man Fails to Win
the Harriet Road Race.
The Northern Cycle company's race
at Harriet yesterday was run in 80 OS.
corrected time over 10 mile course.
ID. X. Carmichael, of st. Paul, was first
announced as winner, but at II o'clock
last night the management claimed
that their latest figures showed that a
Minneapolis man. w. r. Keller was
actually faster than the outsider. He
was accordingly given first time and
Carmichael second, John Lidberg third.
and L. r. Stevens fourth The place
prize was won by o. d. Farlin.
The time was slower than expected
as the track was in perfect condition,
and the arrangements, except perhaps
those of the handicap men, and starters.
were perfect. 1t was hoped that the
time would be considerably under that
actually made.
Last year over the same course. but
In a 20 mile race, the time of the winner
was 54:17, which makes yesterdays
race show up rather poorly in compari-
son. There was no good reason why
better time should not have been made.
All the conditions were favorable to at
least race which might lower the
track record, to say nothing of a state
or national road record. The fault is
said to have been with the handicap
pers and the scratch men who persis-
family refused to set a fast pace Loaf

P. S. G. E. national convention at Washing

that city at II this morning. There were
about seventy five who took the train, but
quite few of these will only go as far as
Chicago. Bicycles were very much in evil

was found that charge would be made for
the checking Of the wheels. Some arrange

owners of the bicycles will be refunded the
money they were obliged to hand over before
their beloved wheels were safely slowed

M'LnAN LYING LOW.
Things He May Be the Dark
Horse.

CHICAGO, July e.-No Mclean badges
have yet appeared among the delegates, but
the boom of the Ohio journalist is met with
everywhere. 1t is underneath the surface so
far, but the friends of Mr.. Mclean are pre-
pared to bring it to the front at the first
opportunity. They expect to see the two
leading candidates, Bland and Boies, pull
each other down, and open the door for a
dark horse. Unless they are convinced be-
fore the presentation of names is called for in
the convention that their champion has much
more than fighting chance, his name will
not be formally offered for first place on
the ticket. The suggestion of McLean's can
didacy has met with strong favor among
many of the delegates, but the drift Of senti-
ment seems to be that he cannot possibly
reach through a first place, and must con-
tent himself with the tail of the ticket. This
is all his friends originally hoped for, but
with the prospects of a big tangle ahead
they have been encouraged to hope that
they may be able to land him at the head
of the ticket

CHICAGO, July 6.-The Louisiana delega-

representatives of all the different candi-
dates today, including the free silver Repub-
vote was postponed until tomorrow morning.
The sentiment of the delegation was divided
between Boies, Bland, Teller and Matthews.
There is a considerable feeling in favor of
Teller but the strong sugar Republican
movement in Louisiana make Teller's friends
fearful that his nomination might furnish
many of the Democrats of the state their
coveted excuse for voting for Mckinley.

the argument made by the opponents of Boies
on the labor question, because he did not

broken by the presence of Grand Master
Sovereign, Of the Knights of Labor, who has
been at the headquarters and with the man
