RENEAR WON RELAY RACE
HIS SIDE REVERSED RESULT OF
LAST WEEK.
Winners Showed Marked Improvement
In Swimming-Kidd's Side Beaten in
His Relay-Third Team Raced.

Three teams competed yesterday in
the Healani relay swimming race. The
result of the other race was reversed
and Captain Dan Renear's team de-
feated Kids team which was not up to
that of the previous week, Kidd himself
not having as much speed as he show
ed before. The third team was captained
by c. Boisse, but was not in the race
after the second relay.
The teams were composed as follows
Renear's team, II. Hebron, w. He'll
bron, Dayton, w. Crook and Renear;
Kidd's, Jarrett, hurry, Reynolds, Kidd
and Webster; BOSSES, Pedgrift Bois-
Sc, w. j. Hebron, Walker and Spen-
GER
II. Hebron made an excellent show
ing on the first relay and Jarrett could
finish only a couple of lengths ahead of
him. Pedgrift did not swim up to his
usual form and came in last On the
second relay hurry gained over w.
Hebron of Renears team while Bois-
Sc was distanced. Reynolds gained
slightly on Dayton who swan much
better than on the previous Sunday.
Kidd got a good sized lead over the
fourth relay but Crook spurted the en-
tire distance and materially cut down
the lead which his opponent had.
Hebron lost ground for Boisse' S
team in the third relay so Walker gave
up all hopes of his side winning and
left before his man reached the fourth
relay.
Webster was given a start of about
10 feet over Renear and Spencer but
Renear soon caught him and finished
several lengths in the led. Spencer
finished strong but owing to mistaking
the course did not finish at the proper
place. Renear and Kidd's teams will
swim again next Sunday and it is like
ly that Captain Jack Atkinson will also
have a team entered.

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE Journal
of Commerce says: 1t seems to be gen.
orally acknowledged that the truce be-
tween the Morgan and the Kuhn, Loeb
& Company interests in their contest
for the control of the Northern 'Paci-
fic has assumed the dignity of definite
settlement of future policy and that at
temptS will be made to reconstruct so
far as necessary the Community of
interests plan of railroad management
on a new basis. This means that the
Northwestern roads are to be brought
more thoroughly and directly into the
fold than has heretofore been contem-
plated Kuhn-Loeb interests are al
ready heavy holders in the Great Nor
thern, and their recent purchasers of
Northern Pacific make that road dis
| tinctly Hartman road notwithS tanding
that the nominal control shall still re-
main with j. p. Morgan & Co., which
according to the best information, is
the present plan. The Hartman peo-
pie will be adequately represented in
the board of directors of the Northern
Pacific. On the other hand there have
the Union Pacific from any encroach-
ments in its territory by the Northern
Pacific. On the other hand there have
been active purchases of Union Paci-
fic stock by interests coming very close
to j. p. Morgan & Co., so that the prac-
teal effect of the recent corner and the
purchases responsible for it have been
the exchange of Union Pacific stock for
Northern Pacific stock.

HER FRIENDS SUSPECT MURDER.
People mt Lafayette viii Not Believe
Pearl hall Killed Herself.

Special 10 the indianapolis Journal.
LAFAYETTE, Ind, Aug. %. = Interest
i'm the case of Pearl Ball, the young
girl, formerly of Lafayette. who yes
terday died under sensational circum-
stances in Chicago, was intensified to-
day by the report that she was muir
dered. When the report came yesterday
that the girl had taken forty-ive morphine
tablets after being ordered out of a restau-
rant with a male companion for disorderly
conduct 1t was not believed by her friends
and relatives here. Her life here had been
so blameless and her social connections so
high in this city that the report that she
had been guilty of indiscretions found no
credence.
To-day's report that she was poisoned
with knockout drops by a young man in
whose company she was seen early in the
evening preceding her death seemed more
plausible. At the time OF her death she
cago physician, and her first request when
discovered was TO be taken to him. He Ia
bored TO save her, but she passed away
without explaining how she was poisoned.
Miss Ball was unusually talented in
music Her education had been the best.
She had composed a little and gave promise
Of a bright future.
The Chicago police have abandoned the
case, Miss Balls family giving them no
encouragement. She was in a wineroOm
keeper of the place in a cab. She lived
with her parents at No. 2 FOrty-Seventh
place. When she was lifted from the cab
a package of morphine was found in her
pocket; forty-five of the one hundred pills
therein had been AIKEN. The coroner's
jury found a verdict of suicide.
