PANIC At RACE
Bolting of Horses in a Gypsie Race
Creates Stampede Among
Spectators.

Chicago, July 22-Six persons were
severely injured and a large throng
was thrown into panic last night
when four horses engaged in a race
at the Gypsie camp became frighten-
ed, threw their riders, bolted the
track and galloped at full speed into
a crowd of spectators. The animals
were coming down the home stretch
at the time and SO, sudden was the
veering of their course that the hun
dreds of pleasure seekers gathered
beside the track had little time to
reach places of safety. Men, women
and children struggled with one an
other in their efforts to get out of
harms way and many were knocked
down and trampled.
Seriously injured: Mrs. Bridget
Barry and her seven months infant,
trampled upon by horses. Joanna
Kearney, cut and bruised about head
and body. John and Edward Simpson,
brothers, knocked down and trampled
upon. Nellie Sullivan, bruised about
face and body.

CONSTITUTION WINS
In Light Breeze and Smooth Water
the New Boat Is Surely
All Right.

New York, July 22-The race be.
tween the Constitution and Columbia
on Long Island sound today again
demonstrated that the Constitution is
the faster fair weather craft. In a
light breeze and smooth water over
a 21 mile course, Columbia was de-
feated minutes and 18 seconds, elaps-
ed time.
The cruise of the New York Yacht
club opened brilliantly today with
races for three valuable cups present
ed by Commander Ledyard. After
the rendezvous at Glen Cove the
squadron got under way and steered
for the starting line off Matinconk
Point buoy, where the steam yacht
Reverie with the regatta committee
aboard, let go her anchor. The whole
fleet was eligible to compete and was
divided into three classes, schooners,
single masted vessels and yawls in
cruising trim and the two cup defend
ers, Constitution and Columbia in rae
ing trim. Naturally the principal in
terest was focused on these two
splendid racers which came to the
encounter in a thoroughly fit condi-
tion. Starting in nice sailing
breeze, which, however, at no time ex-
ceeded seven knots strength, Consti.
tuition beat her rival, Columbia,
smartly handled and sailed with rare
skill and judgment, 4 minutes and is
seconds over the 21 mile course.

TESTIMONY IN FosBURGH
MURDER CASE.
oonJ7HER GOOD WITNESS
Case Will Probably Go to the
Jury By Thursday
Night.

Pitssfield, Mass, July 22-James
Fosburg was called today as a wit
ness for the prosecution in the trial
of his brother, Robert s. Fosburgh.
for the murder Of their sister, May.
The examination was conducted by
District Attorney Hammond who here
tofore had taken no part in the ques-
tioning of witnesses. The young
Yale graduate made an interesting
figure on the stand and his testimony
was direct and conclusive. It appar-
emily left no doubt that his explana-
tion of why he did not know that
burglars had been in the house and
killed his sister, was truthful and
Straightforward. His testimony great
ly increased the faith of the defense
in the ultimate acquittal of his broth
er. James was very nervous, low
ever, and this was noticeable when
any reference was made to the death
of his sitter or to the scanty attire Of
the members OF the family on the
night of the tragedy. The expected
attempt of the government to delve
into the question of family quarrels
did not materialize and James Fos-
burgh's explanation of his attempt to
get number of doctors, his return to
the death chamber and his ministra-
tions to his parents, created a favor
able impression in the minds of all
who listened to him.
In contradiction of the testimony
of previous government witnesses to
the effect that he had seen James Fos-
burgh in the house after the murder
with his suspenders hanging down
young Fosburgh today swore that he
had not owned a pair of suspenders
for five years.
The dramatic climax, however, was
when James Fosburgh descibed his
ascent of the front stairs after he had
heard the horrible shrieks" yet not
knowing just what had happened,
meeting his sister-in-law, who as he.
said appeared before me in the light
She was in her night dress, said the.
witness, and exclaimed in fear:
:.Your fathers gone crazy" Today
also witnessed the production as q.
witness of DR.. W. w. Schofield, the
first physician to visit the Fosburgh
home after the tragedy. Though call.
ed by the government his testimony
was of little or no value to the prose-
cution and it apparently told in favor
Of the defense. The superstructure'
which was today erected over the
foundation laid last week was not,
therefore, said to be complete. 1t
has been suggested by friends of the
Fosburgh family that in the event of
the government not making stronger
case the defense may not put in any
testimony. Even should witnesses
for the defendant go on the stand, it
is believed that the case will be fin
ished by Thursday night at latest

mo CHANGE IN
STEEL STRIKE
NEITHER SIDE MAKES IMPOR-
TANT MOVE.
OFFICIAL BULLETIN ISSUED
For Information of Workingmen
Incidentally Contains Some
Good Advice.
OFFICIAL BULLETIN ISSUED

Pittsburg, Pa, July 22-The expect
ed did not happen today. Neither Of
the looked-for programmes for Wells
vile or McKeesport was carried out.
At Wellsville, the importation of men
failed to materialize and at McKees-
port the attempt to resume at the
Devices Tube plant was not made.
At both points. which are considered
by each side to be strike centers, the
situation is in statute quo, neither Of
the parties to the controversy having
made any decided move. From Dun
canville conflicting reports are re-
ceived and the quiet struggle going on
between the American Steel Hoop Co.
and the Amalgamated association is
uncertain with the company chances
probably better for winning in the
end. Late this afternoon the Amalga-
mated association issued it's first
strike bulletin from the general Of
fees.
The bulletin is printed in the Anal
gamated Journal office and is intend
ed to give the members of the organi-
zation official news concerning the
progress of the strike. In the future
it will be issued on each Monday
morning and will be followed by the
regular issue of the journal during
the latter part of the week. The bull
letin Of today gives an outline of the
conditions prevailing and reproduces
abstracts of President Schaffers re-
cent addresses at Wellsville and Nc
Keesport. In the more prominent
parts of the bulletin is printed the
warning words: ''Do not drink, es-
pecially if he trust tries to break the
strike by importing non-union men.
Don't believe any one who says the
mills will be closed forever or taken
out of the vicinity, if you don't go to
work"
Further on are the words: .'There
were not enough men in the country
to run the mills before the strike so
all you nepF to do to win the strike
is don't. y TX. Enjoy your summer
shut dow1AIt L means more work next
winter. Tho is the time for mill work
any how"
From Mdnessen tonight came the
following: There is suppressed ex-
citement in the air tonight and it is
likely trouble or a serious nature will
result inside of "a hours. Notwith-
standing all efforts to the contrary
the National Tin Plate works started
up full this morning, at regular time.
Shifts are working. Superintendent
Donner abs placed heavy guard
around the mill and if any effort shall
be made to iptimidate workmen there
certainly will be bleedshed. Organic.
ers have been able to get a few men
away, however, but it is said their
places were quickly filled.

and upon their return to West Point,
without food, were ordered to imme-
diately change their dress and fall
into line for the funeral. At the SEM
mary they wer required to stand in a
strained position for a considerable
time and this ordeal was more than
fresh recruits could endure. None of
the cases are regarded as dangerous.

Not a Text Book.

Washington, July 22-Commander
Wainwright, commandant of the
United States ,ns al academy, under
date of July 20, has made the follow
ing reply to the navy departments in
quiry concerning the use Of Maclay's S
history:
Having seen SO much in the pa
pers in regard to the third volume of
Maclay's naval history and having re
ceived an official letter from you ON
the subject, think it right to put you
in possession of full knowledge Of the
case rs existing at the naval academy.
There has been no proposition to
adopt this third volume as a text
book, either from the head of the de-
partment of English, of academy
board, or any persons within my know
ledge. There is no intention here of
requiring cadets to study history Of
so recent events as the Spanish-Amer-
ican war and their time is too limited
to require them to study full vol
ume on any one war.
Maclay's naval history was adopted
with the consent of the department
in 1895 when the English course here
was extended beyond it's former linn
it's.
"This intention not to. adopt the
third volume of .Maclay's history is en-
tirely apart from any consideration of
its value as history of the war or
of knowledge of the facts and critic
sims contained therein. know of no
copy of the third volume at the naval
academy"

FOREIGNERS GOOD BUYERS
Bulls on Change Have Things
Pretty Much Their Own
WAY.

New York July 22-The crowd
which surrounded the corn ring was
larger than usual this morning.
Brokers with their hands full of buy
ing orders were constantly beseiged
by messenger boys bringing dis
patches that told of continued hot
dry weather all over the corn belt.
The bell at 1880 transformed this
nervous crowd of excited men. To
the gallery it looked like a vertable
bedlam. News coming. in from the
west told of advances in price and
only added fuel to the excitement.
There being few sellers, the price
jumped rapidly. Even wheat was af-
fected and before the day was over
robbed corn of it's leading place and
absorbed most of the speculative in
terest itself. This double market
was something new on Change" and
attracted the attention of the floor.
The bulls claimed that spring wheat
was being ruined by excessive heat
and the public evidently believing the
reports to considerable extent, sent
in stream of buying orders. Sep
tember, which closed Saturday at 1874
opened at TAX and by noon was up
to 76.
The strain was heavy but as Or

ing two cents higher at 6Qas for Sep

Long, this afternoon, indicated to the

that he did not care to discuss further
the revival Of the Sampson-Schley
controversy. He said, however, that
he had received = letter from Mr..
Maclay in which the author Of the

agreed to his Qthe secretary's) state
ment that only the third chapter of
his book-that relating to mobiliza-
tion-had been placed in the secre-
tary's hands upon the publication OF

script today said:
In one way, possibly, / was re-
sponsible for the statement made in
the history. was commander-in-
chief of the squadron and was re-
sponsible so far as reading proof goes.
If the historian has taken his facts
from my official reports to the navy
department, that is all we'll and good.
l stand by the first reports and official
communications.
Il would welcome an investigation
of this whole matter by congress and
by the naval department" he said,
"but see no hope of it's being taken
up.
"Schley's statement regarding the
Dattle or Santiago, continued the ad-
miral, .'was moderately correct. In
terviews given out some time after
wards were not all correct. They
were entirely different from his first
accounts and were written in differ
ent spirit, think. The interview
purporting to have come from Admir-
al Schley published, believe, on jan
uary 6, was entirely incorrect. AS
soon as this statement appeared in
print he came aboard my ship and told
me that he had been incorrectly
quoted. The reporter to whom the
interview was granted, was a friend
of mine and he afterwards told me
that he had published Sch1ey's words
practically as they had been spoken. "
