Professional Book makers Making
Figures for Election
NEW YORK, Sept. Pullman &
Rankin, well known firm of book
makers, have just posted betting odds
on the coming Presidential election.
As these odds have been prepared by
careful spectators who make bust
ness of that sort of thing, they may be
regarded as showing how professional
bettors value the chances of the lead
ing candidates. The quotations show
that the spectators have no doubt of
the election of Mckinley, as they offer
21A TO 1 in his favor on the general re-
suit They are even more confident
that the Ohio man will carry New
York State, the odds on him being 6
to l.
The figures also indicate a belief on
the part of the bookies that Mckinley
will carry several States heretofore
regarded as doubtful, and that he will
have a substantial majority in the
Electoral College. Some of the odds
offered are: General result, 21a to L
on Mckinley; New York City, even
on Mckinley; California, even on Nc
Kinley; Kentucky, even on Mckinley;
Maine, to 1 on Mckinley; Maryland,
even on Mckinley; Nebraska, 4 to 5
on Mckinley.

MANCHESTER, Sept. 25.-The Man
chester Guardian understands that an
agreement is probable between Great
Britain, Russia and France in order to
bring about the settlement of the East
ern question, the cooperation of the
French Government being purchased
by an understanding regarding Egypt.
Continuing, the Guardian expresses
the belief that the scheme suggested is
to neutralize both Egypt and Turkey
under an international guarantee, with
their rulers under international tute-
lage.

RALPH AND MAGGIE II.
Settlement OF Race Which Took
Place in June.
Black Ralrn Had no Record-FoaIe5 in Cal
ifornia in Isso-Affidavits From
Former Owners.

Among the June 18th events was a
mile race, trotting or pacing to har-
ness, best three in FIVE Among the en-
tries were William Norton's Black
Ralph" a PAGER, and Tom Hollinger' S
Margaret H."
Norton's horse won, with Hollinger's
second and the race was decided. On
information received Mr. Hollinger
filed a protest, claiming the race on the
ground that BLACK Ralph had a Cali
fornia record. The judges revoked
their decision and agreed to wait until
Mr.. Norton would furnish satisfactory
information that his horse had never
been in race prior TO this one.
Seeley Shaw took the matter in hand
and communicated with parties in Da-
visville, California, where BLACK
Ralph" was foaled, and by the last
steamer he received affidavits from va
rious persons there who are thoroughly
familiar with the colts record. Below
are published two of them, one from
the original owner and the other from
the person owning Ralph before he was
shipped to Honolulu:
wv H. Marden, first being duly
sworn, deposes and says that there was
foaled upon his ranch near Davisville,
county of Yolo, State of California,
one black pacing colt, sired by Killar-
ney, dam by Missouri Chief, second
dam Morgan mare, in the spring of
1889. That he disposed of said colt to
Geo. Sanders in the spring OF 1898;
that said Sanders was conducting
nursery near Davisville at that time,
and used the colt for business purposes
chat is, driving from his nursery to
town and around the vicinity on bust
ness); that said Sanders sold the colt
in August, 1894, to G. Lindaner. Up
to that time the colt had not been
owned outside of Yolo county and had
never been driven in race, with the
exception of a scrub race at the Fourth
of July celebration at Davisville in
1894. No record.
