RACING TO BE RESUMED.

st. AsnEh and Alexander Island Will
Test the Maupin Law.
The proprietors of the Virginia and Old
Dominion Jockey clubs. who are the owners
of the race tracks across the river at ST.
Asaph Junction and Alexander Island, re-
spectiveiy. have determined to test the con-
stitutionality of the Maupin law, which
was recently passed by the Virginia legis-
lGture and signed by Gov. O'Ferrall. In
accordance with this decision there will be
racing at the St. Asaph track April l. and
while no books will be sold on the races
run at St. Asaph, the foreign book, in
which bets are made on races being run
elsewhere, will be operated. The managers
Of the two tracks are understood to have
secured legal advice to the effect that the
Maupiu bill cannot prevent the placing of
bets In Virginia on horse races conducted
in another state.
1t Is probable that the Virginia authori-
ties will arrest the track officials at St.
Asaph when the racing is commenced and
that the test case thus brought will lie
brought to an issue at an early day. The
owners of the two tracks have also agreed
in case the Maupin bill is found to admit
of foreign bookmakiEg to combine their in
terests and to have races at st. Asaph
alone. All sorts of rumors and gossip have
been in circulation about the intentions of
the racing men, but the facts are as stated.

ARMOR PLATE WORKS.

Commodore HfchbOrn Advises Against
u Plant I'm Warrington.
Commodore Hichborn. chief Of the bureau
of construction and repair of the Navy De-
partnent, today gave the Senate committee
en- naval affairs mis- opinion as to the advisa-
bility of erecting a government plant at
Washington for the manufacture of armor
plate.
He advised against the undertaking, say
ing that plant, independent of the ground
for a site, would cost about $2COO.OOO, and
tina. it would be impossible to keep the works
in operation all the time. Skilled labor was
recessary in the making of armor plate, and
as this work would not be continuous it
" ould be necessary, in order to hold the
workmen. to pay them for much idle time.
With private works 1t was different.
The committee also listened to suggestions
from Lieuts. Meigs and Stone. both retired
raval officers, the former being connected
with the Bethlehem and the latter with the
Carnegie works. They were questioned es-
pecially on the process of manufacturing
and the inspection of armor plate.

in actual distress to many families.
The winter has not been q favorable one
for miners. The weather has been mild
ard the demand correspondingly light
Hence the miners earned small wages, not
to exceed SIS per month. A great many
nave earned nearer $40 or $12 a month
Close upon this condition OF affairs came
the ccal " ar, and the gradual drop in price
from 81 per ton down to 81 40 Now the
mines have practically shut down.
