THE HORSE SHOW
Trotters Had Ring in Day;
Bang-Tails in Evening.

New York, Nov. 15.-The second day
of the horse show was as suspicious
as the first, and Madison Square Gar
den was thronged with spectators from
early in the forenoon until a late hour
tonight. The opening hour saw a
score or more magnificent saddle
horses exercised in the ring Miss
Lane, dashing horsewoman, made her
hrst appearance, mounted on Samuel
Rosenthaps mare Pink. A smart four
in-hand owned by w. L. Ellzins of Abb
ingdon, Pa, was then fooled around
the tanbark walk in fine shape
Frederick G. Stevens of Attica, N.
" who yesterday took first for yearl-
ing mares, again had three fine ami
mails in the two-year-old class for
hackney mares, Sutton Lilly and Mis-
chief ii, each by Langdon- Performer
and Kathleen H. by Polomies. Other
exhibitors were Thomas B. Hidden of
Millburn. N. J., F. l.. Bourne of Oak
dale, l.. l., and the Chestnut Hill stock
farm.
The FLIES did not seem such a good,
all-around lot as the yearlings. All
Ablaze, a big chestnut by Wildhre,
bred and owned by the Chestnut Hill
stock farm, was adjudged the pick Of
the bunch, Mr.. Stevens securing the
red ribbon with Sutton Lilly, and the
third going to Rushlight, another of
Wildfre's stock.
In the class for two-year-old trot-
ting FLIES, Gen. B. F. Tracy's AIvaretta
was an entry The former secretary
of the navy has been one of the earliest
visitors to the show each day, arriv-
ing a few minutes after the doors open.
This morning he took intense interest
in the judging of the class which was
headed by his fine brown FLY, shown
by the side Of a saddle horse
Half d. dozen animals faced the
judges in this class, the other owners
being Edward Willets, Mrs. II. N. Balm
of Poughkeepsie. and the Village Farm
of Buffalo. The long-tailed fillies
formed a particularly handsome class,
and their uniform qualities long de-
layed the judges in arriving at a de-
cision. When the blue ribbon was
pinned on the neck of Betty Hamlin. a
rich brown daughter of Mambrino
King, there was burst of applause.
Gen. Tracy had to be content with
gaining second, and third prize went
to H. n. Bain's Mary Emma Lee.
Only two exhibits formed the class
for twoyear-old trotting stations, the
prize easily falling to a big black colt
bred by Jacob Rupert, and exhibited
by the Hudson River stock farm.
In the afternoon, thoroughbred run
ming horses occupied the ring for the
first time this week.

TO EVADE WAR TAX.
Combination of Speculative Mail Corr
tract Bidders DISCOVERED.

tract Bidders DISCOVERED.
Washington, Nov 15.-The post Office
departments has discovered the exist
ence of a combination of speculative
mail contract, bidders looking to the
control of the bids and the evasion of
the so per cent war tax imposed on
their contract bonds. These bidders or
agents have formed an arrangement
Tor opening their ids and selecting os-
tensibly the lowest for filing with the
department, suppressing the others and
thus also saving the revenue accruing
to the government from the large num-
Der of the competitive bids submitted.
Some idea of the interests involved
may be gained by the fact that under
contracts to he let under the general
advertisement Of September IL last, TO
which the organization of these bidders
Immediately looks over 100000 bids or
dinarily would be submitted for con-
tracts for carrying mails on routes in
Ohio, Indiana Ilhonis, Michigan, Wis
consin, Minnesota, Iowa and Missouri.
The contracts are to be for four years
from July l, 1899. An official warning
to bidders generally was issued today,
in which the department declares such
combination violation of the stat
utes, and AYERS that no bid will be con-
sidered which is found to come from
any of the participants.

THE MANILA TROOPS.
Great Pressure Brought Upon War De
-partment TO Have Them Returned.


Washington. Nov. 15.-Great pressure
is being brought upon the war depart
ment to have the volunteer troops now
in the Philippines return to this coun-
try. Nearly every state that has troops
stationed at Manila has asked, through
it's governor or representatives in con-
gress. that these troops be sent home.
The pressure comes through relatives
and friends of the volunteers, and is
started by the troops, who have been
writing home. Some of these letters
published in the state papers at homes
of the enlisted men have created a
wave OF sympathy for the volunteers
in far off Manila.
While they do not recount very great
hardship, except amcng those who are
i'll, they do show Il at the life is very
obnoxious and the duty of policing the
city of Manila and remaining inactive
is very disagreeable.
1t is said at the war department that
there is no way of relieving these troops
from duty in the Philippines at the
present time. The uncertain conditions
that exist in the island of Luzon make
it utterly Impossible 20 get along with
smaller number = ar are stationed
there st present. General Otis has been
asked by cable if troops could be spar
ed, and has replied lin the negative

it has no reference TO the charges made
at minis for the bullion deposited for
coinage. 1t is the practice Of most all
nations TO charge at their minis an
amount sufficient 10 pay the absolute cost
OF conversion and to make the mint self
sustaining. The application of the stamp
after the metal has been melted and re-
fined for coinage is made without any
charge, and hence the phrase free coin

mon parlance we call it free coinage when
a person can take his bullion to the mint

settled, and trouble Is at any time likely
TO arise over this phase Of naval opera
tions. The ships Of the United States can
run into our own ports for coal, but where
could Spanish ships get coal in case their
bunkers were empty while on this side the
Atlantiof In Cuban ports, II there was coal
enough there andif the United States fleets
had not blockaded them; In our own ports,
provided the Spaniards could capture
them, but not In the ports Of neutral ma
,tions--not In Brazil or Central America
or Mexico or the Bahamas.
The best authorities agree that coal may
be sold to the ships Of belligerent in a
neutral port, but only for the purpose Of
enabling the ships to reach their home
ports. Any supply beyond this is illegal.
For instance, II Spanish ships operating
along our coasts run out Of coal they may
get at Halifax or Nassau new supply
sufficient to take them back to Spain. but
not for the purpose Of continuing their
offensive movements against the United
States. All such questions come under the
rule which forbids belligerent ships to use
neutral ports as "a base Of operations. "
They may run into neutral ports in stress
of weather or for minor purposes or to get
provisions and fuel with which to reach
home, but not to carry on their campaign
against the enemy. WALTER WELLMAH.
