WEDNESDAY, SEPT'R II, 1901.

If President Mckinley lives, the
worst punishment that can be meted
out to Czolgosz under the laws Of the
state of New York, is ten years of i'm
prisonment. If the president dies, he
will be electrocuted, unles he can
make a jury believe that he is insane.

THE whereabouts Of Emma Goldman,
the notorious woman anarchist, are not
definitely known. There is a story to
the effect that she has been in Buffalo
during the past few days, and it is be-
lieved that she is implicated with Czol-
gosz actually as we'll as theoretically.

THE ENQUIRER gives up most Of Its
space today to the story Of the shooting
of the president; but in doing so has
no apologies to offer. The whole people
are interested and concerned in all OF
the dreadful details Of this frightful
tragedy, and they should have the sto-
ry as fully and as correctly as possi-

SENATOR wellington, Of Maryland, is
quoted as expressing himself as follows
on the assassination of the president:
Mckinley and I are enemies. He has
been guilty of an objectionable offense
toward me. I cannot say anything good
for him, and I do not think it just the
time to say anything bad. despise the
man. 1 have no use for him, and there
is no reason for my saying anything.
l am totally Indifferent in the matter" "

In The Commoner of Thursday. Mr.,
Bryan comments with great sorrow up
on the attempted assassination of Pres
ident Mckinley. He says that no party
lines interfere with the woe which be-
fell the American people, and that there
is no room for anarchists in America.
He advocates heavy punishment for
Czolgosz and hopes for the presidents
speedy recovery.

HARNESS RACES.
Successful Opening at Brighton Beach
Yesterday.


Five thousand spectators saw the sport
at Brighton Beach yesterday, when the
seaside meeting of the New York Trotting
Association began. The weather was per-
feet but the track was trifie slow. Spec
ulation was active and the program fully
up to grand circuit form.
The big stake of the day was the SO, 600
champion free-for-all trot, and Lord Derby
in his first start of the season was made
the favorite at 500, with $50 for Charlie
Herr and SO for Georgiana and The Monk.
The two outsiders made the race in the
first heat to the three-quarters pole, where
Lord Derby came up and challenged The
Monk, who just managed to win in hot
finish by head, but the favOrite won the
next three heats with a little to spare,
with The Monk second.
The special between Joe Patchen, 2.01A,
and Anaconda, 2.O2h as a race proved a
failure, as the former was not up to his
form, and the Californian won the first
heat by six lengths in slow time, but it
was a different story In the second heat SO
went to the quarter in 3d. the half in 500
the three-quarters in 1.3011 and home two
lengths to the good In 2.03A. Anaconda
sold at 500 to 500.
Seven met in the Ala trot, and Coxey
sold for $50 to the fields 800. Niger Jack
upset the talent by landing two heats and
then losing to James Shevlin.
In the 2.2o pace Star Pugh was the choice
at $50. Captain Brine at $25 and the field
so. The favorite led to the quarter.
where he fell back. and Captain Brine
came on and won handily by two lengths.
He won the next. but Dick Lee beat him in
the third, and the race was postponed.

LAWSON DEFEATED TAYLOR.
Records Smashed Right and Left at
Buffalo Yesterday.

The final of the quarter-mile circuit
championship professional, won by liver
Lawson of Buffalo, and the ten-mile motor
tandem, won by Henshaw and Hedstrom
Of Springfield, Mass, were the features Of
yesterdays grand circuit races Of the Ma
tional Cycling Association in the Pan
American Stadium at Buffalo.
Lawson defeated Kramer, the circuit
leader in the first grand semi-final in a
hot finish, and Taylor disposed of Free
man. Taylor had the rail in the final heat
and he forced Lawson to take the lead
They went to the eighth at a snairs pace.
The Buffalo boy made fednt at running
up on the bank for the finish, and the Ma
jor tried to steal through on the inside
Quick as flash Lawson got back to his
position of vantage, and was away and won
the heat and race by two lengths
The final of the ten-mile motor tandem
championship was won at a terrific clip

National League Clubs Standing.

The concluding series of three games be-
tween the Washington and Baltimore clubs
started yesterday at American Park, and
the Orioles secured the first decision, the
score being to 1 in the birds favor.
The defeat for the Senators easily be
accounted for-the visitors played better
ball, but the contest, notwithstanding, was
an interesting one and kept the onlookers
on needles for the first six innings. Then
came the deluge of hits, errors and bases
on balls, and when the water had subsidized
1t was found that the Orioles were high
and dry with four tallies to their credit.
The great McGinnity was on the rubber
for the Baltimores, while Bill Carrick
served up the twisters for the Senators.
Both twirlers did gilt-edged work, the elon-
gated Oriole having a slight advantage on
bases on balls and one more safe hit. Eradi-
cate the errors of Jordan and COughlin,
all of which were on easy chances, the
score would have been to 0 in Washing
toms favor, but misplays are bound to crop
out at any time, and it was the local
clubs misfortune that they came our way
yesterday. The Baltimores were enabled to
tie up the score in the third inning through
Jordan's glazing muff of perfect throw by
Coughlin, and this gift of run seemed
to take all the push and go out of Car
rick. Billy has become superstitious over
his long string of defeats, and the errors
appear the more disastrous when made be-
hind him.
Washington scored first, getting one run
in the second inning. Clarke was hit in
the shoulder by McGinnity and trotted
down to first DUNCAN drove hot one at
Keister and was safe on first, as the little
fellow couldn't handle it. Jordan then
waited patiently and got base on balls.
With three on bases and no one out, the
best Coughlin could do was to hit into
double play and but one run resulted, Will
Jams gathering up the sphere, stepping on
second and retiring the batter at first.
Clingman was the last man out, short to
first. This was the beginning and ending
of the Senator's run-getting
ming. Bresnehan hit hot one to Coughlin,
but Jordan dropped the throw and the bat
ter was safe. McGinnity sent Roger up
a base with neat sacrifice and he went
to third while Farrell and Jordan were
disposing of McGraw. Donlin then fol-
lowed with a safe single to short center
and Bresnehan crossed the plate.
The game was won by the Baltimoreans
in the seventh. Brodie was the first man
case. Then came the fatal base on balls
to Jackson. Bresnehan hit to Coughlin and
had the ball beat, as Bill backed on the
grounder, but Jordan once more left the
throw get away from him and Jackson
went to third McGinnity then hit a
grounder to Coughlin and on the latter's
tumble Jackson crossed the plate. McGraw
then ''butted'' into the game with double
to right, which scored Bresnehan and Nc
left and on a splendid sprint McGraw beat
Gears throw to the plate. Seymour and
Williams were retired by Jordan unassist-

INVADER WON ON FOUL.
Takes Another Race for the Canada's
Cup.

William Hale Thompson, Cadillac's skip
per, presented Invader with the third race
of the international yachting match for the
Canada's cup off Chicago yesterday, as de-
scribed in The Stars dispatches, by fouling
the Canadian boat at the start In full view
of the judges and most of the spectators.
Captain Aemilius Jarvis Of Invader de-
clined to fly his protest flag, but the judges
steamed after Cadillac and notified Captain
Thompson that they disqualified his boat,
whereupon Cadillac left the race.
Invader sailed over the course and was
raced by Milwaukee, the Oshkosh boat that
SO holly contested with Cadillac the honor
of defending the cup and the sailing match
was followed all around the triangular
course of twenty-one nautical miles by the
usual fleet of steam and sailing yachts.
Invader beat the Oshkosh boat handsomely
at all points of sailing in light wind.
Captain Jarvis said after he got ashore
that he felt no satisfaction in getting
cup race in this way, but that he was
pleased that his boat had had an opportu-
nifty to beat Milwaukee. The official time
was: Invader. 2.49.O1; Milwaukee, 2.5430.
This does not settle the series, as the
winner must take three out Of five races.
The Canadian now has two, the Cadillac
one.

Legal Remuneration.

From the Nineteenth Century.
The mode of legal remuneration has al
ways been the real stumbling block in the
way of solid reform. 1t need not be. II
lawyers will condescend to deal with the
matter upon a common commercial basis.
Ever since they got the upper hand in this
country, the length OF the proceedings has
unfortunately been the chief test In our
system. A disadvantageous and mischiev-
GUS plan! Why, indeed. the length and not
the subject of dispute? The principle is Inn
polite and unsound at the bottom; it is
the cause Of the present unhealthy condi-
tion OF affairs. Added to this. we get a
procedure that unwisely offers to the weak
and INSCRIPTIONS all kinds Of excuses of q
plausible nature for increasing the number
of and prolonging attendances. multiplying
documents and copies and stretching out
the contents. Time and money are wasted
on work that is useless; expedition Is lost
sight Of, and in this manner attention Is
diverted from the actual question In dis
pute. The revenue authorities, as a con-
sequence, have been drawn into the mistake
of setting the court fees on similar illu-
sorry footing. The engineer, the architect,
the auctioneer, the estate agent. are paid
according to the value of the matter they
have to deal with. So also the remunera-
ton Of the lawyer should be tested By the

Riders OF the Big Mach1neS Likely 10
Make Unprecedented Time.
Manager Bryan of the Coliseum returned
to the city yesterday from New York, de-
lighted with the success of mission that
resulted in matching four Of the fastest
pacing motors in this country to race at
the local bowl tomorrow night. Bryan says
that the matching Of the motors was the
hardest racing task Of his life, as none Of
the riders know the speed of their ma
chimes, and the frightful velocity makes
the risk of racing very great and is a
great strain on the nerves of the riders.
especially the steersmen. Each motor is
of four horsepower, and it is believed that
in the race the throttles will be opened
wide and the motors sent out faster than
motors have ever gone in this country. me
result will be the most thrilling spectacle
in the history of the bowl
In arranging the heats and finals efforts
have been made to produce in the crews
feeling of rivalry and excitement sufficient
to induce them to open up their motors and
let them go at top speed, with the best men
winning one Of the richest purses offered
by the local track.
The entries for the race are Tom Eek
Yellow Flyer, that paced McEachern to
victory over Champion, to be ridden by
Carl Reimers Carl PretzeD and Briggs;
to be ridden by o. v. Babcock and Fred
Hoyt; Johnnie Nelson's new Stearns motor,
the Yellow Boy, ridden by John King and
Bob Schultz and Joe Nelson's motor, Black
Joe, to be ridden by Bob Hunter and X. q.
Bennett. Eck's motor and Michaeis motor
are to race the first heat. and the two
Nelson motors the second heat. BY this
ARRANGEMENT the most intense rivals are
to qualify for the final of ten miles that
Is counted on to produce the real sensa-
ton.
An added attraction Is Joe Nelson, who
is to try to break the five-mile amateur
record back of motor pace. He is one or
the most interesting figures on the track.
He is less than five feet tall, and, being
very thin, seems a midget, even when
compared to Michael. He Is the amateur
find of the year, and as mere novice
broke the worlds record for five miles for
amateurs This record has been the foot
ball for young Nelson, Smith. Edwards and
Fulton, and Little Joe is to try to place 1t
where the dogs can't bite it for months.
The preliminaries tomorrow night are TO
be the one-mile novice and the one-mile
handicap.

He stood very close to big statesman
who dominated the political destinies Of
their state in the principal city Of which
my paper was published. The legislature
was then In session, and there were up for
consideration two bills concerning street
railroads which were of vital Importance
to the public, and worth several millions
to q particular surface line In the city.
One bill gave the railroad company the
right to extend its tracks on certain
boulevard, thereby invading an entirely
new and thickly settled portion of the city,
to the enormous prospective profit OF the
company and the corresponding disgust
and anger of the property holders and resi-
dents along the proposed line. while the
other bill forbade the company or any
other line from laying tracks upon the
thoroughfare in question.
Local excitement was very great and
the feeling very intense, SO much so that
violence was advocated should the COM
pany's bill pass. The stock OF the railroad
had sold up to high advance because of
tho great value of the franchise sought.
and because the financial sharps In Wall
street had the inside tip that the controller
of the political destinies Of the state had
decreed that the bill should pass. and ordi-
