THRoWN FROM HIS WAGON.
Russell A. Bolden Seriously Injured on
 Whalley Avenue Yesterday.

Russell A. Belden, president and treasurer of the Belden Machine com pany and a well known citizen and bus mess man, was thrown from his car- riage and seriously injured while drlv- ing on Whalley avenue yesterday after noon. MT. Belden was driving a new horse which was inclined to be little frisky. He was at the outer end of Whalley avenue, when two bicycles col llded just i'll front of the horse. This Frightened the animal and he jumped to one side across the car track. The wheel caught in the track and the bug gy was tipped enough to throw MT. Bel den out. He was thrown against the curb, striking on his left side. The horse was stopped and MT. Belden drove home. After he arrived there Dr. Ben jamin H. Cheney was called and found that MT. Belden had sustained frac- ture of three ribs and had received confusion of the left hip. It was at first thought that the left hip was brok- en, but such fortunately proved not to be the case. In addition to the injuries mentioned above, his attending physi- elan thinks that he has received inter- nal injuries. MT. Belden is suffering considerably from his injuries. While they are serious, Dr. Cheney thinks that he will recover.

1 CONFESSION BY LUETG ERT. Made to Fellow Prisoner-The Death
 of Mrs. Luetgrrt.

Chicago, July 3.-Adolph L. Luet- gert's sudden death in the penitentiary at Joliet on Thursday last has brought to light the fact that State Attorney c. s. Dineen has locked up in the vaults at the criminal court building almost from the beginning of the accused's s trial for wife murder two years ago, an implication that is considered morally Luetgert's confession of guilt. It was made by Luetgert to fellow prisoner in the jail. It was sworn to by the lat ter at the time before the states attor- ney. Now it is given publicity for the first time. From this document it would appear that Luetgert asked his wife to go with him to the sausage fac tory office on the night of May 1, 1897. She refused This angered him. Dur ing the night in quarrel that followed he gave her violent kick in the side This rendered her unconscious. Luet- gert expected she would come to, but she did not. Seeing that she had died, he disposed of her body in the factory vat.

Hansen rode the first 100 miles in 5:25 and the 200 miles in 11:45, breaking state rec ords. When Hansen started it was his intention to go for national course !ec- ords, and he would undoubtedly have been successful but for a bad fall at thirty miles.

A Reception to the Admiral at the

A Reception to the Admiral at the
 White HOnse.
 Washington, July 30.-President Me- Kinley will give reception to Admiral Dewey at the White house when the latter arrived in Washington. At first he was in doubt whether a reception or dinner would be more appropriate but the former is likely to be decided on for the reason that 1t would be more popu- lar in character and would grant to a multitude of people an opportunity to meet the naval hero and shake hands with him. The management of the re- ception will be very simple and will differ in no important respects from regular affairs of that character af the White house.. except that the admiral will occupy the place in the line of the receiving party the president coming first, Mrs. Mckinley next and then the admiral the introductions being made as usual by Colonel Bingham.

 Bald Defeats Zimmerman

New York, July 30-The one mile match race between Arthur A. Zimmer- man and Eddie c. Bald was the chief event to-day at Vailsburg, N. J. The regular Sunday crowd had been swelled by a couple of thousand enthusiastic Jerseyites and others in anticipation of great work. The match was for a guaranteed purse" of $lOOO and a per- centage of the gate receipts. The Jer- seyman had the best of the start, but the Buffalo boy went right up to him in the second and for three laps out of the four constituting the mile there was not more than the width of tape-line between them. This trail was kept up until half the fourth lap had been fin ished, when Bald shot ahead. Zimmer- man was either unable or unwilling to make a spurt Bald at once put pans of daylight between them and finished four yards ahead in 2:13. Summary:
