starters.

The greatest derby Of them all will be run
at Oakley, near Cincinnati, this afternoon, and
fancers Of the thoroughbred all over the
country are speculating on the outcome. As
1t looks now, there will be field of eight
starters go after that Sl25O0 and, in view
Of the last few races, a majority of them
have figured in, it will require pretty nice
mathematics to pick the winner. The field
will in all probability include Ben Brush,
Ben Eder Semper Ego, Prince Lief, Nimrod,
Frontier. Ramiro and Loki, with the two
Bens carrying five additional pounds for win
nngs at Louisville all the rest being at III.
There will doubtless be other starters, as
about forty colts are eligible.
Up to last evening Ben Brush was the
favorite, and he is likely to remain so. But
he has got to look, for aside from Ben
Eder, Semper Ego Is in wonderful form, and
there is Prince Lief and Nimrod 1t is
doubtful If either Of the Bens is five-pound
better horse than the last trio named.
Weighted as they will be, 1t looks like even
money on the great quartet, Ben Brush, Ben
Elder, Semper Ego and Prince Lief They
have all dashed in hairbreadth finishes that
have puzzled the most talented or the talent.
Ben Brush beat Ben Eder only by nose
in the Kentucky Derby, at equal weights,
while Semper Ego, bare head in the clark
stakes, at equal weights. Prince Lief also
beat Ego, with ive-pound handicap, how.
ever half length in the Phoenix Hotel
stakes. So, you see, how these four cracka-
lacks are bunched Surely the Cincinnati
Derby should prove the greatest 3-year-old
contest of the year. 1t will be bruising

Dwyer was not so thoroughly confident OF
Ben Brush's ability to yank of the rich
Doodle, or why his purchase of Ben Elder, and
the ensuing scratch of Brush in the Clark
stakes? The slightest misfortune will be SUI
ficent to make a loser out of winner.
Again, racing is extremely uncertain under
the best of auspices, and some rank outsider
may demonstrate his supreme disgust Tor

County Attorney Baldrige stated that he
would file complaints this morning against
the four Fords and Parks. Upon the orders
Of Mr.. Baldrige. Sive Close and Lake will
be held as witnesses, and orders were sent
to the jailer to keep all these prisoners sep
arated. The attorneys are satisfied that the
wad fight, but will not tell the truth.
Yesterday afternoon the third session OF
the jury was held. As at the previous ses-
sons, the council chamber was crowded, and
the police cleared the room before the TAX
ing OF testimony was commenced.
The leading witnesses and the prisoners
were separated Tuesday night and yesterday
Several OF the supposed leaders in the fight
were put through q course of questioning at
the county Jail, and 1t was with the feeling
that the guilt of one or more would be
firmly established that the jurymen took
their seats when the case was called. Mrs.

Platform Declares Tor the Mpintc-
nance of the Present Standard.
ABERDEEN, S. d. May 20.-The demo-
cratic state convention convened here to-
day at 2 o'clock. The gold standard men
received important reinforcements this
morning, notably from the Black Hills, whose
delegates had been for silver but changed
to right about because of the food of
protests from that part of the state. Sem
ator Ramsay of Woonsocket, gold standard
candidate, was agreed on for temporary
chairman.
The convention adopted the following plat
form
in favor of the present standard of value
in our monetary system and the use of full
legal tender silver coins and paper con-
vertible into CONT at demand in such guam
titles as can be maintained without impair
ing or endangering the credit of the gov
debt paying power of the money in the
hands Of the people.
Lynch of Beade moved the adoption of the
following as substitute:
Resolved, That we demand the restoration
of the money of the constitution by a law
providing for the ths free and I unlimited ted coin GLn
tender at the ratio of 16 to i, regardless of
the action Of any other country.
The convention, by a vote of 1914 to 2241s
rejected the substitute and adopted the
original resolution. Other resolutions ar
raign the republican party for extravaganza
and declare unalterable allegiance to the
Cleveland administration, also oppose any
effort to materially alter the present just
and conservative tariff and pronounce against
secret political organizations.
The fight over the financial plank was eN
tremely warm but the free silver delegates
did not withdraw from the convention as it
was rumored they would do early in the
morning.
The state officers nominating convention
was called this noon to be held in Deadwood,
September l.
The temporary organization was made per-
manent and the following officers were sell
ected for Chicago: First district +. NJ. Sto-
