Jockey Tod Sloan Throws Some
Light
On the Untold Story of His
Racing Trouble.
BERESFORD'S NOTION.
The English Lord Wanted Him
to Work Horses
Like Stable Boys and This Tod
Refused to Do.

New York, March 9-Tod Sloan, the
little American jockey who is now So
journing in New York, this week told
his close friends there why he and Lord
Reresford had fallen out.
Many stories have been going the
rounds about Sloan being turned down
by the English Jockey club and aristoc-
racy generally on the other side.
1t has been said that he will not get
a. license to ride. All the rumors how
ever, have not had the foundation nee
essary to inspire one with the BELIEF
that such action will be taken by the
Jockey club. Referring to these rumors
Tod says:
What reason have they to turn me
down. I have done nothing contrary
to their rules, excepting probably, my
little episode with a fresh waiter, VINO,
1 think Intentionally upset a tumbler OF
wine over my clothes, for which tickled
him on the head with an empty bottle.
1 know that is against the rules of the
Jockey club, and comes under the head
Of disorderly conduct but It was eX-
cusable, and I made amends by stalking
the fellow to a neat sum and paying his
bills while he was incapacitated.
The reason Beresford and l are not
as sociable as before is owing to his
wishing me to work horses in the morn
ing like stable boys do in this country,
and I refused to do so, as I have had
too much work of that kind in this
country. He also wanted me to go
scooting all over the country to every
little one-horse meeting that took place,
and this I did not care to do, as the
travelling is too severe jumping from
one town to another every couple of
days, sleeping at bum hotels and put
ting up with many inconvenience. For
these reasons I don't suppose / shall
ride regularly for Beresfcrd; in fact
do not intend to contract with anyone
to ride permanently, but be free lance
for a season, picking out the best
mounts offered to me"

ARE MARKED men
Morton Albaugh and Frank
Brown Slated to Go.
The Anti-Boss Society Wants
Their Scalps.
SUPPORTERS WAIVER.
State Officers May Not Demand
Their Retention.
Question of Success Is Now Being
Discussed.

The Republican politicians who are
leading the uprising of the rank ana
file of the party against the men who
have been managing the affairs of the
party for six or seven years, have now
turned their attention to the state com
mittee and propose to get rid of Nor
ton Albaugh chairman, and Frank L.
Brown, secretary.
These men were in charge of the state
committee headquarters during the late
state campaign and both seek the
places during the next great contest,
the general belief among the politicians
being that the chairman and secretary
of the state committee in presidential
elections have great prestige
A few weeks ago a canvass of the ad-
miniStration officials resulted in a con-
clusion that Mr.Albaugh and Mr,Brown
would be retained in their present posi-
lions. But, since the result of the pre-
hminary. bout in the First district the
state administration is not been SO
positive.
The fight at this time is being organ
lied against 5Albaugh and Brown. Its
promoters are of the opinion that the
state ticket will submit to the wishes
of those who have made this flght IN
the First district and won and as
consequence are developing unexpected
and great strength in the movement
against the party veterans.
There are fourteen candidates on the
state ticket this year. OF this" number
several are new offices, among them
being the superintendent of insurance
and the four members of the court of
visitation, three judges and the solicit
tor.
OF the remaining officers now mem
bers of the administration it is believ-
ed that but one, Governor Stanley
would insist upon the reelection of
Morton Albaugh. All of the officers are
+ friendly to Albaugh but they are not
anxious to cultivate q probable break
with the anti-boSS movement and
majority of them have already signi-
fed their Willingness to do as the state
convention directs It has been the rule
for the nominees to name the chairman
and in this way men have gotten into
that Office against the protests of mem
bers of the party in it's councils and
positions of. influence.
{ The anti-boss campaign is now to or
ganize to such an extent that it would
be possible to control the state con-
pvention. If this organization succeeds
in this attempt to swrest the party pow
er from the hands Of the men who now
control it, then a new committee viii

and the state committee will be Sc

The night OF August 18th the Trad

containing $50 which belonged to the
hotel, was taken. The safe had been
left open, and it is supposed the temp

Clarence Lee, quit the hotel that
night and left for his home in Vir-
ginia. The hotel clerks, upon discov-
ering the robbery, wired the authori-
ties in Baltimore to arrest Lee. They
did so, but found no money on his per-
son and he was released. There is no
clue. Some five months ago sum Of
money was taken from the safe in a
similar manner.

vein is "a inches thick. Experts have
examined it and pronounce it fine.
This is the first find Of camel coal in
