Harry Donnelly. caretaker of Ackman
Jim, tried 10 get at the stalls occupied by
Simon's string, but IL was impossible.
CAUSED BY CARELESS SMOKER.
The fire was thought 10 have been
caused by a careless smoker dropping a
match or cigar butt in a vacant stall.
Not only were the stable and sheds
consumed, but about 500 feet OF the park
fence was burned.
The Cranston Print Works engine, the
only one in town, did what could be done
with the slender water supply on hand,
aided by the Arlington hose, the Volun-
teers of Cranston and Hose IL OF this
city. There are no hydrants on the park
grounds.
Captain Harrington OF Hose II made a
record run TO the fire. He heard the
alarm sounded by the Narragansett brew
cry whistle and was all ready when Chief
Steere told him To go.
After getting a line OF hose laid by the
volunteer firemen, Captain Harrington
said there was delay caused by a sec
tion being burned out.
FOUND IN THE RUINS.
The Providence firemen found two
watches, a ring and a sum OF money In
the ruins. A quantity of valuables must
have been burned, for many of the men
in charge of the horses lost all they had.
The value of the horses burned was
placed at $1,000; racing gear and traps val
ued at $500 were consumed and the total
loss on buildings and all will reach sl4,-
900.
The buildings were partially insured.
Their value was $500. There was no 9TH
er insurance The fire broke out just as
the starters I'm the 2:17 trot had been call
ed up and announcement had been made
OF the 2:14 pace race.
Chief of Police Bigbee OF Cranston, was
one of the first men at the fire.
He did valiant service I'm placing the
engine at work, and keeping IL running
until the blaze was under control
Then he peacefully returned to the
quarter stretch and maintained order
there until the last heat of the week was
finished

Bahcock Says 1t Will BE Close
Race.

New York. May 27.-Represcutatiye Jo-
srph W. Babcock nf the Third District Of
Wisconsin. chairman of the Republican
Congressional Campaign Committee. said
to-nieh; that in his opinion the contest for
SentItiNeS would be close lie said that
while the reports he had received from va
riouS parts ct the country indicated the re
election OF President Mckinley. the loss of
"a ir" districts would give the democrats
It majority in the House.
Mr.. Bancock also expressed the opinion
that Senator Charles Warren Fairbanks Cf
Indiana had the best chance at present OF
any of the candidates for the vice presiden-

The Congressional Committee" he said
will meet before the final adjournment Of
Congress. which will not take place. /
tfinh. before June ? | do not think that
either Secretary Long or Governor ROCse-
Welt Will he named for Vice President.
In my opinion. Senator Fairbanks of In
diana. who is an able, clean man. has the
best chance of receiving the nomination. IL
has been the custom for the party TO take
the wee presidential candidate from a de-
ba table State, and To choose a wealthy man.
think he will be nominated. but there does
not seem to be any prospect of this at pres
eut-at least II uocS not took possible. If
senator Fairbanks is not nominated, the
candidate possibly Will come from the far
West.
There will be II close fight for the con-
troll of the House. We have only thirteen
majority row. and we shall possibly lose
some districts in the Middle Western States.
We expect. however. To make up any losses
that we may sustain in New York, Penn
sylvania and Massachusetts. Ii Is upfor-
tunate that Representative Boutelie of
Maine was renOminated. as his health Is So
bad that he may not be able to take his
