about the race track Bobby Walthour,
the individual prize winner, who finished
riding at 7:44 o'clock, also paraded, and
to him the crowd gave a hearty recep-
tion Then the men went to their quar-
ters' and after a rundown, went to their
hotels.
Only one accident happened today to
mar the race That happened at 9
o'clock. shortly after long sprint. Bah
cock fell. AS result the bunch were
delayed, and resulted in Miller, Maya
and Walthour gaining a lap on the
others. The spill was the result of care
less riding on Babcock's part, and the
referee decided to give back all the dis
lance lost except to the unlucky Bah
cock, who was penalized one lap.
The best previous record for 142 hours
was made by Miller, in the Garden, in
1898, when in six-day race he rode 2,19O
miles and $50 yards. The combined mile
age of Miller and Waller for 142 hours
therefore beats Miller's record by 54S
miles

Harry PuIIiam Tells of Plans for

LOUISVILLE, KY, Dec. 9.-Harry Pull
liam, president of the Louisville Baseball
club, arrived today from Pittsburg. To a
reporter Mr.. Pulliam said:
''If we cannot dispose of our interests
at the league meeting, next week, we will
continue in the game. We would prefer
to sell out but not at a sacrifice. We will
have material for pretty good team.
Louisville has had worse. With Billy
Clingman, as manager, 1 think it would
receive the support of the public. Or
course 1t would not be the $4,000 team we
carried last year. That was too eXpen-
sive for US with the patronage we re-

ship.
The scene at the Garden at 10 o'clock
tonight was exciting when the winners
swept over the line, ending one of the
most sensational contests Of it's kind ever
given In this country. Ten thousand
people saw the finish. From o'clock to
the end the pace maintained was heart
breaking. 1t was nothing more nor less
than a continuous series of sprints, first
one and then another of the riders cleo
trifying the crowd with a terrific burst
of speed.
All the teams worked in fifteen and
twenty minute relays, but frequently one
man relieving his mate in the middle of a
hair-raising sprint. Not for single in
slant did a single rider leave the track
side after o'clock. The moment a man
dismounted from his wheel he was
wrapped in bathrobe or blanket, set in
chair and his handlers went to work
on him in plain view of the spectators.
EXCITING FINISH.
The last ten minutes Of the race were
ridden at record-breaking pace, first one
and then the other of the leaders going
to the front and setting a terrific clip.
Beginning the last lap, Pierce, who had
been trailing the bunch, suddenly shot
out and he crossed the finish line three
lengths ahead Of Babcock, who had been
lying in first place during the long sprint
McEachern finished third and Champion
Miller fourth.

RUSSIAN GOLD MINES.

Notwithstanding her cold, bleak
zone, her ice-incrusted shores, her
barren lands, her rigid rule, and cruel
penal system, Russia is setting an ex-
ample in enterprise, in perseverance,
in educational and industrial advance
ment that many another country would
do well to emulate. Schools are scarce
compared with those of the rest of
Europe. but they are increasing under
the present car with greater rapidity
than in any other part OF the world,
perhaps. Colleges and universities are
being established, especial attention is
given to industrial institutions and
with all her land-grabbing. railroad
construction, colonizing and shipbuild-
ing Russia is believed to be making
greater progress in the line of educa-
tional work than in any other.
AS an illustration of this tendency
the existence of extensive gold fields
in the southern Trials was discovered
not long ago. The government has ar
ranged for the immediate establish
ment Of six national schools of mines
in the different parts of the auriferous
region, Ito promote more thorough,
systematic, scientific, and speedy ex-
ploitation of the mineral deposits"
There will be especial attention given
to the training of assayers, electrical
and mining engineers. and the develop
ment of geological experts.
If every country which produces
precious anu useful, metals would take
regions where they are found it would
be to their credit and profit. For
scientific and systematic
working of gold fields is rarely under
taken; and the result is, as we have
observed in many parts of Utah that
which have been scratched
over and deserted time and again,
often settle down and become steady
producers under systematic and intel
ligelll treatment.

HEAR FROM SCHLEY'S FRIENDS.

Senator Wellington has informed the
president that the overwhelming de-
feat of the Republican ticket in the
municipal election of Baltimore last
spring was due to the persecution OF
Schley by the bureaucrats unchecked
and doubtless approved by the presi-
dent; and he says that the entire state
will repudiate the administration in
the same way next year unless extra
ordinary efforts to recover lost ground
are made.
The people Of Maryland, Senator
Wellington explains, have reached the
conclusion that if such injustice to a
naval hero can be perpetrated with
Republican president and a Republic
can secretary of the navy. it would be
a good thing to change both, and they
will vote their convictions.
AS the recognized head of the Re
publican party in Maryland, Senator
Wellington is in position to sound
the alarm and to command the undivid-
ed attention of the administration when
he does so.
Whatever may be the cause, 1t will
be gratifying to all fair minded people
of the republic to learn that the malig-
nant crusade against the hero of San
tfago bay is at an end, or is even to be
SUSPENDED.

PROSPEROUS MEXICO.

Advocates of the single gold standard
have been dividing their time between
crediting the financial system of the
United States with the good crops and
foreign demand which has produced a
measure of prosperity in this country,
and explaining how it happens that free

An eastern capitalist has hit upon
theory which ought to satisfy his own
crowd, even if it does afford the silver
people some satisfaction and amuse-
ment.
George D. Cook of Chicago, senior
member of leading firm of bond-buy-

which several millions of dollars of

of reputation finds customers thus

trial this time, which is all he ever
asked One thing that appears more
than all else TO his credit in the whole
course of this unfortunate affair. He
has never asked for liberation without
trial; he wants no acquittal that is
not based on a thorough investigation.
1t is vindication he demands, rather
than freedom at any price.
Dreyfus was convicted by a secret
court-martial on Dec. %, 1894. The
trial was ended. The judges withdrew
to consider the case. Colonel Maurel,
the president of the court. stated that
the bordereau had been taken from
the war office of a foreign power. Then
he exhibited three documents that had
been given to him in private and which
had not been introduced at the trial
One was the forgery Esterhazy tes
confessed Another was a document
for comparison. intended to verify the
handwriting of the first paper, and
signed 'Boureur." And the last was
the report on the alleged acts and re-
marks of Dreyfus compiled by another
confessed forger, Du Patty du Clam
Panizzardi's telegram generating
Dreyfus and revealing the real traitor,
according to the German attache, was
not read but Colonel Maurel described
it as follows: THE minister possesses
the copy of a Geographic dispatch
which emanates from foreign gov
eminent. This telegram is overwhelm-
ingly against Dreyfus, for it leaves no
doubt as to the relations of the accused
with the agent of a foreign govern
ment.''
Then the vote was taken, and the
rest has been an oft-repeated story. IN

sation it caused by making the court
proceedings public. says: The general
staff maintains that the treason was
committed for the benefit of Germany,
through PaniZZardi. Now Panizzardi,
teleSraphing to his government, de-
clared that he had had nothing to do
with Dreyfus. On the other hand, the
German government and Schwarzkop-
pen have affirmed that they had no re-
lations with the prisoner. Dreyfus, af-
ter his condemnation, always protested
his innocence. If Dreyfus had con-
sented to make confessions, General
MERCER promised a mitigation OF his
punishment
These things are known to the pub
