executed at any moment He loved his
wife and children and in the darkness
and loneliness of his cell he was con-
stantly crying out for them. The
thought that they were but a few rods
away and he might never see them
again or hear the sound of their voices
or feel the touch of their lips and hands
maddened him and proved too much
for the mind of the distracted and un-
happy man. 1 thought it not improb-
able as the long hours passed by, Ii
may have given way and left him a
mad man. His wife says his derby
hat was all battered up and his clothes
greatly torn when he returned to her.
But, whether, when bereft of reason.
he inflicted the blows which produced
brain congestion, or whether he died at
the hands of others, the truth will
probably only be known when the
hearts of all are revealed-the facts
remain, his unjust confinement killed
him, and had he been released from
incommunicado, by the hand of man
at the end of 70 hours the hand Of
death might not have released him at
the end of 351 hours, and today the
widow would have had the support Of
her husband and the means of his
fatherless children would not have been
heard in the land.
Il, therefore, conclude, saying as l
have done in all previous reports about
this case, that whether DR.. Ruiz killed
himself, or was killed by some one else,
will, under the existing conditions, al
ways remain unknown.

Maher Ready for the Gong.

New York. June Peter Maher. the
Irish champion, is ready for the sound
of the gong on Wednesday night. The
galway cyclone has run and rOnlped
about the Westchester hills for seven
weeks. and he feels that he has become
sufficiently robust to withstand the on
slaughts OF Tom Sharkey The tall
freshman is bright OF eye, ciear-skinned.
flexible Of muscle and light footed as
an antelope His training exhibitions
have not only wrought this desirable
change in his physical condition, but
his large staff of trainers have become
hollow-eyed and thin-faced in their eff
forts to keep pace with the herculean
boxer.
Read work has been the principal fea-
ture of Makers training. Every morn
ing shortly after breakfast he has
started on a jaunt OF IA to is miles and
has run most of the distance.
Sharkey is a man of abstemious hab-
its and is always within a few days of
being ready to enter the ring. His
training at Southfeld, S. l., has been
thorough and the victory, therefore,
will hinge on skill and strength.

THE WHEEL.

st. Louis. June 7.-E. C.Kreidler. who
was announced as the winner of the
third time prize in the Forest park road
race of last Saturday. today fled a
protest with Referee Allen, claiming
that the timers had made an error and
that he. and not j. C. Conoven of Kan
sas City, had won the second time
prize j. c. Conover made a protest
against the awarding of the first time
prize to Arthur Stockton of St. Louis

time in the race. Both Kriedler and
Conover claim that they rode the race
several seconds faster than the finding
of the timers shows. Mr.. Allen will

then agreed to, also the paragraph on
clapboards, shingles and chair cane,
heretofore passed over.
Mr.. Allen then moved to substitute the
provisions of the Wilson bill for the en-
tire lumber schedule. Rejected-21 to 81.
UP TO SUGAR.
This disposed of the wood schedule
and again brought the senate up to the
sugar schedule. Mr.. White asked Mr.. AL
lison as TO the plans of the committee
going on with that schedule.
Mr.. Allison responded that it was pos
sible that some amendments might be
made to this sugar schedule so that he
thought it would be inexDedient to go
of the committee however. to have that
schedule considered as early a S possible.
II any changes were made they would
be proposed in open senate. and after that
sufficient time would be given gentlemen
on the other side to consider them. IL
sugar went over tomorrow, then the
tobacco schedule would be close. and if
that went over then the agricultural
schedule would be taken up.
In response to further inquiries, Mr..
Allison said that Mr.. Aldrich hoped to be
sugar schedule, and his health was such
that he might be back in the senate to-
morrow. He again stated that the sugar
schedule might be modified in which
case senators on the other side would
have fun opportunity to consider the
changes.
MI All4SOn SdiQ the committee was
ready to proceed tomorrow on any
schedule the other side might desire to
take up.
At this point Mr.. Jones. of Arkansas.
said the minority desired to know posi-
lively whether the sugar schedule would
or would not be taken up tomorrow
The senator should remember" an
swered Mr.. Allison. that the sugar
schedule is in order now and sufficient
unto the day is the evil-or the good
thereof"
II submit that the minority has a right
TO know what will be done.' persisted
Mr.. Jones.
Then l give notice. concluded Mr.. AL
lison, that the sugar schedule will be
passed over tomorrow and that the to-
bacco schedule viii be taken up
In response TO inquiries by Mr.. Cannon.
Mr. Allison stated the committee would
probably return to the sugar schedule and
dispose of it ahead of the other schedules
way.

be Generous-Some Pretty Field
ing-Notes of Track and Diamond.

Oxford. England, June When the
umpire ordered the stumps drawn for
the day on Christ Church college cricket
grounds at 6:45 p. M, because of the
increasing darkness, oxford was all out
for 1868 runs. Bailey and Ralston of the
Philadelphia team were still at the
bat. the former having scored five runs
and the latter one, neither being out.
The match did not develop any bril-
liant playing on either side. The Amer
leans, however, acquitted themselves
well most of the time. They found the
ground loose and slippery, and several
members of the team still felt the ef
fects of the ocean voyage. But their
fielding was often pretty and occasion
ally a good stop was heartily applauded
by the spectators, who showed the best
feeling throughout the day.

THE HOFFMAN CASE.
Inquest Postponed For Very Good
Reasons.

San Francisco, June THE jury
subpoenaed by the coroner in the
mysterious Hoffman case was taken
down to the scene of the tragedy this
morning by Coroner Hawkins and Dr.
Gallagher, who performed an autopsy
upon the body of the deceased. On
arrival at the Battery street office
Chief of Police Lees proceeded to ex-
plain the situation, but was inter
rupted by Attorney Ach. who repre-
scented the relatives of the deceased
He classed the conduct of the chief as
highly improper, and a lively tilt en-
sued, as the chief resented the impE-
cation that he was attempting to in
fluence the jurors toward the suicidal
theory.
No date has yet been set for the in
quest. the coroner having acceded to
the request of the police not to hold it
until the books of the firm have been
exported.
