DETROIT BLUE RIBBoN MEET.
Opening Day spoiled by "A Heavy Down
pOur of Rain.


Detroit, July ia flve-minute down
pour of rain spoiled the sport at to-
days opening of the annual Blue Rib
bon race meeting. The miniature cloud
burst occurred just as twelve horses
We're scoring for a start in the 2:09 pace,
the first race on the grand circuit pro-
gramme of so. A moment previous the
sky had been fairly clear, and the rain
fall was fierce while it lasted. 1t sent
the horses, drivers and attendants
hustling for the stables, chased the
Judges and timers out of their stands
to better shelter and disappointed three
thousand spectators. The storm ceased
as suddenly as it began, but it left the
Crosse Pointe track in hopeless, sticky
condition and the cool northwest wind
did not assist in drying it out rapidly
The crowd waited an hour and half,
and then came the announcement: "On
account Of the dangerous condition of
the track to-day's races are postponed
until tomorrow. All holders of checks
will be admitted tomorrow" To-day's
programme, including the Chamber of
Commerce $4,000 pacing stakes, will be
carried out tomorrow. Tuesdays pro-
gramme including the Merchants and
Manufacturers $4,000 stakes, will be
contested Wednesday, and to-day's de-
lay will carry the meeting through Sat-
urday instead of ending on Friday.

Explosion Causes Her to Sink-The Sea
Fire.

Halifax, NJ S., July 1.-THE Standard
Oil company's tank steamer Maverick,
which arrived Saturday from New York
with a cargo of OIL lies sunk in this har-
Dor. She was taken to the pier this
morning and the pumping of the oil
from the ships hold to the oil tank on
the shore was commenced a six-inch
pipe connecting the tanks. During the
pumping the pipe burst and the oil flow
eel down into the engine room and be-
came. The steamers crew made ef-
forts to subdue the flames which fol-
lowed, but were obliged to leave the
ship to save their lives. In short time
sheets of flames We're rising from the
steamer in several places. The city fire
brigade was called out, fearing a gen.
eral conflagration. This danger was
averted by an explosion, which blew a
hole in the ships side. She careened
and gradually filled with water and
sank. She now lies submerged only her
masts being visible. About two-thirds
of the cargo remained in the vessel at
the time Of the disaster and this was
destroyed. The accident occurred in an
arm of the harbor known as Bedford
Basin. A large area of water is COW
cred with the blazing oil and thousands
of people have been attracted to the
scene
The Maverick is a total wreck. She
was not insured. The vessel was valued
at S250,000 and the cargo at $50 900.
About 100000 gallons had been pumped
out and there remained about 100000
gallons in the ship. The explosion was

New York, July Hilary Cornisf
Tonight gave out statement concern

alleged to have been furnished him by
Walter S. Swayne, New Haven chem
lst. These stories were to the effect
that SWayne remembered that in Marcel

poisonous compound for a stranger who
said that he wanted it for a secret pro-
cess of dyeing carpets, and that the
stranger, who Wore false whiskers had
given the name of I'll. Cornish -
SWayne said that the compound that he
lilaae contained prussic acid and that it
formed white powder, of which five
| grams would be sufficient to cause
death. The sale of this mixture had en-
tlIely escaped SWaynes memory, it was
claimed, until servant happened to

ing In order to appear before the grand
jury. Until | reached the city | was not
aware Of the statement made by
SWayne AT the suggestion of Assist
ant District Attorney Osborne I accom-
panied Detective McCaffrey to New
Haven. We went to the home of
Swayne, which is an almost inaccessible
part of New Haven. l was introduced
to him as Detective Carey, McCaffrey
using his own name and stating that he
had come to ask SWayne if he would oc-
company us to New York to identify
Mr. Cornish.
II stood before Swayne and sat be-
side him on his own steps for at least
twenty minutes without sign of rec
ognition on his part, although I was
afterwards informed that he had been
shown my photograph not fifteen min
yates before by a reporter
THE following verbatim are some of
his remarks continually reiterated by
him: My lawyers instructed me to say
nothing at present. All / want is to see
this Cornish and hear him talk, and get
of the poison which killed Mrs.
Adams.
Detective McCaffrey offered to pay
his expenses if he would accompany us
to New York for the purpose of identi-
flying Cornish, but he steadfastly re-
fused to go. He also said: Weeks has
known this matter for three weeks or
more, and stated that he was in Weeks
office at that time. l consider that his
entire story is untrue and evidently en-
anates from the same source as the at |
tempted extradtion of Mr.. Hickman.

DEADLY KENTUCKY EEUD.
Several Men Are Reported Killed at
London.

Louisville, Ky, July ia special to
the Courier-Journal from London, Ky.
tells of a report reaching there of an
| outbreak of the feud in Clay county by
which five men lost their lives to-day
The dead are said to be: Robert Phil
pot, Ed Fisher, Aaron Morris, Jim
Griffin, Hugh Griffin.
| These fatalities resulted from pitch
| ed battle fought near Little Goose
| creek, three miles from Manchester.
| The feud dates back nearly two years.
On Christmas, 1897, James Philpot was
killed by Aaron Morris but before he
died he shct and killed William Bundy,
friend of Morris. The Morrises and
Griffins We're closely affiliated. Since
then the feeling between the two fac
tions has been very bitter and it has
been aroused recently by the White
Baker hostilities. The Philpots, who
are the strongest faction in the noun
tains, numbering about $50 voters, open
ly espoused the cause of the Bakers
while the Griff1ns took sides with the
Whites. The story that reaches here
from Manchester is to the effect that
Bob Pilpot was arrested to-day by Dep
uty Seriff Thacker. While very circum-
stantal in other respects, the report
does not show clearly the origin of the
trouble nor give the reason for Philpot's
arrest.
1t is said that while Thacker was TAX
Ing Thackers bond the latter was shot
from behind from member of crowd
that had gathered. This precipitated
general fight with Wincnesters and re-
volvers which was preciptated by
George Granville, Robert and Peter
Philpot and Edward Fisher on one side
and Aaron Morris, Hugh, Jim and Green
Griffin on the other. The battle ragged
fiercely for ten or fifteen minutes. When
1t was over it was found that the five
men above had been killed outright;
three other bellgerents seriously in
jured. whiel Philip Philpot was the only
one on either side to escape injury.
Granville Philpot is said to be one of
the most seriously wounded. He is
union veteran. He is ex-member of the
Kentucky legislature and is said to have
killed three or four men, Edward Fish
er, who is reported dead, was but twen-
ty-three years old, but was said to have
killed three men, The story of this bat
tie caused CONSERVATION here, notWlth-
standing the fact that serious trouble
had been expected to break out among
the mountaineers for some time. An ef'
fort was at once begun to secure depu-
ties to restore quiet and up tc late
hour there had not been enough re-
sponses to make UP force that would
respect The situation at
is deplorable. since morn

night met in their rooms at 7S1 Chapel
street and held a lengthy session. 1t
was nearly IL o'clock when they ad-
journed and although 1t was evident
quite an important discussion had been
going on those present refused to have
anything to say in regard to what was
done. President Roach when seen re-
fused to make any statement whatever
and would neither affirm nor deny any
questions put to him. All the other
members preserved equal secrecy in re-
gard to their doings and departed for
their homes az soon as the meeting was
over. One member stated that nothing
had been done towards going out, but
would not say whether committee had
been appointed to confer with the Mas
ter Plumbers association. There is
nothing to be given out" he said, "and
should anything be told you it would be
untrue"
