| New York, Aug. 1.-THE second sea-
| side meeting of the New York Trotting
Association began, today, at Brighton
| beach under favorable auspices. The
| big feature of the card was the $40, 900
Bonner memorial purse for trotters of
the PIP class, for which there were II
starters. The blind horse Rhythmic.
which has won all his races down the
line from Detroit, was the choice at
$50 to $40, but eventually sold at . to
on.
Silver Sign and Maj. Delmar made
the clip hot to the half, where the IA
voIite went to the front and led home
by a length. In the second heat Ryth-
mic led all the way, but in d cracking
finish with Lady Thisbee he won very
tired by half a length. The favorite
won the third.

Dan T., who, with a record as fast as
Itythmic's, was never formidable
The 2.15 pace was on what is named
the Novelty plan. The race is COM
pleted in three heats. The winners of
the first and second heats retire from
the race and the first money goes to
the winner of the fastest heat, second
and third moneys in the same way,
while the fourth goes to the horse hold
inv the next best position. The talent
in this race forsook the pools and made
all their betting in the books, as in
reality each heat is distinct race.
Prince Direct was the favorite at 2 to l
in all three heats, but he was not able
to get to the front till the third
In the first heat Josh led the field by
SIX lengths from the quarter pole to
opposite the grand stand and looked d
certain winner when he tired and
broke badly, Pauline G.. winning by a
half length from Alice Mapes. Carl
Wilkes cut out the work in the second
heat and never quit leading the fast
est heat of the race, in 2.09&4 and the
first money. In the third Schley Point
er son of the champion Star Pointer,
led the party to the distance, with
Prince Direct and Alice Mapes close up.
Pointer broke close to the wire and the
heat went to the Prince, with Alice
Mapcs at his wheel.
The 2.1f trot was also on the same pIan
and Il good field of nine met For the
first heat The King was the favorite at
to l and he won, pulling up by two
lengths. In the second heat Mabel was IL

a little tC spare from y. J. ID. The public
thought Ida Highwood the best of the
balance of the party and she led fronl

vorite at to /. In the first heat Fanny
! Diilard won by a neck in 2.0J14, and in the
| next heat Dan r. won by very short
nose. Dan r. also won the third heat.

by Firminist Forces.

Commander McCrea Cables That Ship s
Presence Is Necessary.

Port Au Prince, Hayti, Aug. 11.-The
correspondent of The Associated Press
visited Petit Goave, yesterday, and
found that the town had been entirely
destroyed, there being nothing left but
pile of ruins. About 1000 persons
are homeless and are greatly in need
of assistance. The greater number of
them have sought shelter in the Sim
monds factories near the town.
The French cruiser D'Assas arrived
at Petit Goave, yesterday. with pro-
visions for the sufferers. and returned
to Port Au Prince with 200 women and
children and Is wounded men. The
authorities refused to permit the
Firminists to leave. fearing they would
go to other points, to take up arms
again.
Each party accuses the other of hav-
ing set the fire to Petit Goave but the.
general belief is that Gen. Chicoye, the
Firminist commander, resolved 10 de-
stroy the town, when he saw that he
could not hold it against the Fouchard-
lists.

 Spectator on Roosevelt

A young literary man once said that when he first saw his name in the Lon don Spectator he felt as if he had been sneaked into the Bible. Prezident Roosevelt may have a similar feeling at the present time. The editor of the Spectator has made him the subject of favorable editorial comment. As matter of fact, this is not Mr. It0Ose- velt's first appearance in the Spectator. He has been there several times before. But never before has he been treated with such distinguished consideration.
 We nave here" says the editor, speaking of the presidents Providence speech on trusts, "the unproVukcd ut terance of a thoughtful st&tesnan." who recognizes the truth that the eX- istence of trusts must be regarded as inevitable Under present conditions one must put up with the trust just as one puts up with the trades union. Combination is self-preaerVation 10 both sides. But we have the right in each case say both the president and
 the Spectator, ito ask that the people who have combined shall do good and not harm" While they are consult ing their own interests they must not forget the interests of the public. To this end. in order that their regard for the public may not fade from their minds, they must be subjected to the real, not merely nominal, control of some sovereign to whom they shall owe allegiance and in whose courts orders may with certainty be enforced"
 All this, thinks the Spectator. is jIst and wise. At the same time, what kind of sovereign does Mir. Roosevelt think of erecting? Does he aim at federal Legislation? Does he mean, therefore, to amend the constitution? As all the world knows, a constitutional amend ment is something like an impossibil- ity." And yet under our present laws " trust incorporated in one state. but trading throughout the Union, is diff
 tIcult fish to catch in the legal net All things considered. therefore, the Spectator concludes that the fear If legislation may be q more effcctual check on the tyranny of the trusts than any actual legislation which is a al likely to be adopted" The trusts know that if public apprehension rises to the point Of legislative enactment. congress will be likely to pass measures of SO stringent a chaTacter as to take from the trusts even those fields of activity in which they now operate to the ben eft of both producer and consumer. For fear, therefore, of losing what IeGa. standing they have and of being stripped of even their proper and useful powers, the trusts will refrain as far as possible from eX&sperating the country. Consumers are also voters.
 This view of the case is based on q sound principle. The more imminent legislation is the more vii! those per sons who are likely to be affected by it begin to walk modestly and circum- specify. When the sword hung over Damoceles he dld not feel like being
