MANY RECORDS GONE

Grand Circuit Track.
WAGON RECORD LOWERED
Blue Ribbon Day For the Alb
bot Anaconda'S Win.
WAGON RECORD LOWERED

Cleveland. O.. July r-breaking
marked the close OF the Grand Circuit
meeting. as record-c2pping had signalized
the opening. This afternoon the worlds
record TO wagon was broken twice. first
by Kentucky Union, who went under the
mark established by the Village Farm
stallion, the Abbot, a second and a half,
and by Grace Hastings. who lowered the
mark TO 2:o91s. half second below even
the unrecognized clip OF Ellorse
In the first race, the 2:10 trot, continued
over from the day before. The Abbot.
with Geers in the suiky, travelled the fast
est heat trotted this year. the tasted trot-
ted on the Chenille track in two seasons,
cutthe worlds record for 5-year-oid geld
ings from 2:Os1& to 2;cs19. and went three
heats that formed the fastest race trotted
this season. robbing Matte aPtterson of
her recently gained glory.
The 1e00 people who packed the stand
not only witnessed breaking of turf rec
ords, but they saw four OF the greatest
races ever punched together on grand
circuit track.
Smashing four records in a race won by
straight heats was a wonderful achieve
ment. yet that was what The Abbot in the
2:10 trot did. Pilot Boy was the only real
competitor of The Abbot Three times
he had what appeared to be a "cipch"
heat, but The Abbot managed TO push his
nose under the wire first
There were several starters in the POS
pace. and Bumps and Anaconda were
played TO win. but Anaconda took the
race after losing the third and fourth
heats to Frank Bogash. Anaconda was
beaten only head in the third, and in
the fourth heat he was pocketed on the
last turn and could not help himself.
The trial milo by Kentucky Union and
Grace Hastings to beat the wagon record
made by The Abbot were fine exhibitions.

to the uncertainty of the future. Orders
that were given during the first days Of
the American occupation have been coun-
demanded by cable. European merchan-
disc on through bills of lading via New
York nave been ordered unshipped and
sold in New York, even at a sacrifice.
Tho same feeling extends to the Cuban
merchants themselves, who seem to have
lost faith in the ability of their own peo-
pie to control affairs. The rebels demand
independence. but the better classes, the
merchants and land owners, fear ssuch a
possibility and fervently hope that the
United States will retain the reins Of gov

Senior Julian Cendoja, agent of the
Ward line Of steamers. says that hun
dred Spanish merchants have applied for
cabin and baggage room on the return
trip of the steamer Philadelphia, which
is expected today, and they will leave the
city unless there is some assurance from
the American government that ut intends
to control the administration of public
affairs in Cuba This is the question up

foreigners and natives, are all alike anx-

Senior Ros is rufled at General Shafter
not allowing him complete control Of the

upon the state paper issued by President

eral terms for The government Of .he
province Of Santiago de Cuba, which con-
tains the following clause:
