WAX TAPER's BAD RACE.
Crowded Margraviate and Jockey
Shaw Was Thrown.

Crowded MarEraviate and Jockey
Shaw Was Thrown.
Although four favorites were first past
the post at Sheepshead Bay yesterday and
the attendance was fully up to expecta-
tions. the result of the fifth race complete
ly spoiled the afternoons sport.
The betting in the fifth race gave the
first sign that made suspicious people pre-
fer to look on. for Carbuncle, gelding Of
no class. was heavily backed by wise peo-
ple while the price against Wax Taper
showed little change, regardless of the
heavy play. and Prince of Melbourne, the
highest-class horse in the race went from
21a to to to at post time.
Wax Taper. usual, was slow to begin,
but Prince of Melbourne got off well and
ran prominently until the turn out of the
back stretch. when Spencer took him into
the bunch and he got lost. Margraviate,
with Shaw up. made all the running but
ured in the stretch, and just when All
Gold ON one side and Wax Taper on the
other passed him Margraviate was seen to
biunder and fall heavily. throwing Shaw
ousy injuring him.
wax Taper was well In his stride by
this time and appeared to be winning
easily. when, for some reason hard to *
beat him out. 1t was either criminal care
lessness on the part Of Coombs or else
overconffdence. for If he had even let Wax
Taper have his head he must have won.
Inc numbers were not put up until the
stewards had had a chance to question
Shaw, the result being that Wax Taper
was held responsible for Margraviate's fall
ing, the stewards believing he crossed in
'front.' or Margraviate. Wax Taper was dis
qualified. so All Gold was placed second
and Latson third. Coombs was also sus-
pended six days for careless riding and It
IS possible that the case Is not settled yet.

MONONA COUNTY DITCH.
Legal Complications Delaying an Import
ant Piece Of Work.

Onawa, Feb. 27.---l'y request of the
county auditor, c. b. Ellis, the ditch
case Of Mitchell Vincent vs.. the conn
ty auditor has been advanced on the
calendar of the supreme court and
will he tried at the May term of said
court. Everybody seems anxious to
have the matter settled as soon as
possible. BY direction of the Monona
county board Of supervisors the audi
tor advertised for bids and let the
contract for the construction of the
ditch.
Mitchell Vincent obtained an in
junction restraining the auditor from
letting the contract. to the Chicago
Canal Construction company, who
were the lowest bidders on the work,
taken as a whole, and the work on
the Monona end of the ditch has been
delayed one year at least. The board
of supervisors, however. levied the
tax for the building Of the ditch
against the adjacent land owners, and
it is now on the tax books of the
county.
There has been n movement for an
in JUNCTION to restrain the treasurer
from collecting the tax now assessed
until the ditch is built, but there arc
some objections to this, as many peo-
pie are very anxious to have the
ditch constructed and believe it would
prove a great benefit, if properly
done.
1t is believed the ditch is likely to
be constructed the present summer
by somebody if further legal COM
plications do not follow.
