BIG FIELDS
About $50 Horses Entered for the
Los Angeles Meeting

Never within the memory of "the old
est inhabitant" has there been such a
rush from all parts of the coast to get
to Los Angeles, as is displayed in the
enormously long entry list for the ap-
preaching fair at Agricultural park.
There are 429 entries, representing 247
head of horses. which will keep the track
superintendent pretty busy in finding
stable room for all of them.
The free-for-all trot has closed with
eight nominations, and in the free-for
all pace the name of the hero of Santa
Ana--old Silkwood himself-heads the
list. Those who have not seen the old
horse lately will be glad to learn that he
looks better than ever before. His old
trainer had a fashion of working him
down into a very hollow form, while,
under his new trainer, he is at least 100
pounds heavier and hard as nails.
Entries for the running races embrace
ever twenty in all but two out Of twelve
sweepstakes, SO that the public may be
sure of large fields and spirited contests.
The stables of Marcus Daily and j. Ma
glee Burk will be here for the first time,
and this Is the first occa sion on which
local races have been filed with nomina
tions from Idaho, Montana and Illinois

Associated Press Special Wire.

| Associated Press Special Wire.
HAZELTON, Pa, Sept 15.-A calm
pervaded Hazelton and its environs to
day. The strikers maintain silence and
good order. An extra guard was placed
about the company stores at Latimel
| today in consequence of current rumor
that the foreigners were plotting TO
blow up the building. They have ceased
dealing there and buy all their provi-
sions in Hazleton. Some are going SO
far as to move into town. Large groups
Of the miners constantly hover about
the stores.
A guard Of thirty men was stationed
at the Audenreid pump to protect the
water supply.
Arrangements are under way for a
monster mass meeting here Saturday
night, and it is understood that efforts
are being made to bring Eugene " Debs
and other prominent labor men here to
address it, All the miners in the Middle
coal field will be asked to attend, and
it is estimated that $4,000 miners will be
present.
The arrangements for the prosecu-
tion by the Austrian societies who have
taken up the cause have been brought
to pause by Gen. Gobin's order forbid
ding the arrest of the prospective de-
PENDANTS.

miners retreated, but returned the fire
with their Winchesters. None of the

vention of the miners representing the
entire district. There were only four
dissenting votes when the resolution to
go to work at once was voted upon.

The Union Pacific Sale

WASHINGTON, Sept 15.-It is prob
able that within a few days Attorney
General McKenna will announce the
course the government will pursue with
reference to the decree of foreclosure ir
the case of the Union Pacific railroad
1t can be said upon good authority that
the chances are very strongly against
the government appealing from the
decree. The cabinet did not pass upon
the question definitely, but on the con-
trary postponed final determination on
it to future meeting. 1t is considered,
however, by those familiar with the
matter that there is little doubt as to
what the final conclusion will be in
view of the opinion of various members
of the cabinet in favor of allowing the
sale to proceed.

"DOC" CRANDALL'S CRIME
Coroner's Jury Decides That He In
tended to Murder Bowman


The coroner's jury which held an in
quest at Santa Monica over the body of
Jack Bowman, who was shot at Ballona
harbor Tuesday morning, returned a
verdict that the deceased came to his
death as a result of gunshot wounds
inflicted by Frank Dewitt Crandall
with intent to commit murder The in
quest lasted until o'clock yesterday
morning. Crandall was then turned
over to the custody of Deputy Sheriff
Clements. who brought him to the coun-
ty Jail early yesterday morning.
Crandall has engaged Attorney Craw-
ford to defend him in his trial. His
counsel has advised him to say nothing
and he has persistently refused to be
interviewed. The prisoner still takes the
affair very coolly and the fact staring
him in the face that he will have to
stand trial on charge Of murder, with
strong evidence against him, does not
eeem to alarm him.
Maud Wilson, the woman who was
with Billy White at the beach when the
shooting occurred, was found at the
Waverly lodging house on Third street
yesterday afternoon. Ruby Grant, who
states that she was married to Bowman,
was also present. Both women emphat-
ically deny that there had been any
quarreling at the camp beyond passing
few unpleasant words. According to
Mrs. Bowman's statement, the two men
got into controversy over a bill of 60
cents which the latter owed at a res
taurant on Fourth street Crandall
said that he would not be liable for the
bill, whereat Bowman rose to his feet
and remarked: well, don't want any
more friendship from such a man as
you are" The woman reiterated the
