Yesterdays Races Over the Fleetwood
 Corrse

Course.
 New York, Sept 1.-The Grand Cir cult trotting meeting at Fleetwood Park ended to-day. The two thousand spectators expected a walk-away in the trotting race for the sensational green horse of the season, Page, 2:O9%, while Jack Bowen's Boston mare Refina ap- parently held mortgage upon the place.
 In the opening speculation on the trotting race Page was the favorite at to 1. Van Zandt in the opening round took Page away at a scorching pace, which carried him off his stride before the first turn was reached and left him hopelessly in the rear. Van Zandt then won the heat without a contest. In the second heat Van Zandt broke at critical stage of the race and Page won the heat easily. In the third heat Page and Van Zandt passed under the wire at the same time, a dead keat being the judges decision. The fourth heat resulted in @ victory for Van Zandt by 8 length. Page made rally in the next round, but he was over-matched and Van Zandt logged home the winner.
 Refina, the red-hot favorite in the pacing race, out-classed her field com pletely and should have won in straight heats. Jock Bowen did not drive her in his accustomed style, Redinda beat ing the gray mare two heats in a ridicu- lously slow time. The driving club cleared a handsome profit on the meet ing.

Yours very truly,
 SAMUEL E. WINSLOW.

Springfield, Sept. 4.-W. Murray Crane made a statement this evening concerning the letter which was sent out by Colonel Winslow, the opposing candidate for the lieutenant governor ship, to the press. MT. Crane said he had opened the letter only this after noon, having been away from home till that time and so had been given no time to answer which he thought was hardly fair. In the first place he had never made any statement that Colonel Winslow had written him any letter of the sort indicated A letter had been really received by him, however, which in connection with attending circum- stances did give him the assurance that Colonel Winslow would not run if he decided to do so.
 Colonel Winslow told Mir. Crane per sonally in January and repeated his as- surance a month later, that he would not run against MT. Crane. In April MT. Crane says he received a letter from Colonel Winslow alluding to their former interviews and asking whether Mir Crane would run. The evident purport of the letter was to find out Mr. Cranes position, so that Colonel Winslow would know what to do about his candidacy. When MT Crane ans wered that he would stand he consid- cred as matter of course that Colonel Winslow would not do so.

 Worcester, Sept, 4.-In reply to state- ments charging that w. Murray Crane had in his possession a letter from Col onel Samuel E. Winslow. promising not to be a candidate for the nomination of lieutenant governor this year MT. WinsIow has written the following let ter to his opponent in the canvass!
 Worcester. Sept. g., 1896. Hon. W. Murray Crane,
 Dalton, Mass:
 Dear sir: Many men and some news papers favorlng your political inter ests have been and are industriously and systematically stating throughout this commonwealth that you have received from me letter in which promised not to be a candidate for nomination for the office of lieutenant governor this year if you were to be in the field.
 nave assured all 1nqulrerS that Such statement is without foundation in fact, and I am not aware of having written letter which is possible of any such construction. The purpose of this rumor appears to be to reflect upon my honor. Such an argument is fair, if true, and it is we'll that all republicans should be afforded an opportunity to judge for themselves of the character and fitness of candidates for public of fee. I, therefore, urge you to publish any such letter which you have receiv- ed from me, as well asSany statement which you choose to make in connec- tion with such correspondence.
 After a reasonable time has elapsed to insure the receipt of this letter shall give 1t to the press for publica- tion.

Senator Jones Was Mistaken for q Poos
Country Parson.s

A tab man in black clothes Of no
particular style, entered Broad
way jewelry shop the other day
and asked to see a watch, says the
New York Sun. The clerk, sizing
him up for poor country parson,
who would be well rid of, produced
a 5000 timepiece as a discourager.
The stranger looked it over. and
asked for something better. Wink
ing at the cashier the clerk reached
for specially made chronometer,
the price of which he felt would, besa
squelchsr. The seedy man examined
the watch and inquired it's value.
Zone thousand dollars" said the
bright clerk.
"Ah," observed the customer.
LET me see chain please"
An Inexpensive chain was produced
and then the strapeer selected a
valuable charm, which had been
made for exhibition only. The
stranger stuck the jewelry into his
vest pocket, and the clerk, fearing
that he might have entertained q
thief, kept close to the suspect, who
quietly ,fshed out a big roll efsbills
and placed two $1,000 gold certifi-
Gates upon the counter. Utterly
phased the salesman remarked that
it was customary to keep the names
of customers to identify goods il
lost by purchasers.
"My. name is JONES'" said the
stranger; Senator Jones of Ne.
vada. You may address mesAtstht

taking change. for the certificates
departed. -
