ATLANTA HORSE SHOW.
Seventh Cavalry Gave Great Exhibit
tiOn-ProfessiOnnls Take Prizes.

iOn-ProfessiOnnI Take Prizes.
Atlanta, Oct. 15.-It is conceded by
every one that the exhibition given by
the troopers of the Seventh United
States Cavalry now here, is decidedly
the feature of this years Hrose Show.
Many think it so far eclipses every
thing else at the show as to make
other features seem insignificant. The
troopers, under Capt. Anderson, give
exhibitions of riding and handling
horses which were never surpassed by
the best of Buffalo Bits trained rid
ers, and they are winning the honors
on every hand. The members of
Grimes Battery OF the Third Artillery,
however, are mucn put out because
their exhibition drill was cut out
of the programme. The horse
show directors claimed that the heavy
artillery apparatus would cut up the
tan bark too badly, and for that reason
they relegated the drill to the last
night, though it will be given during
the day in front of the racing track
grandstand. This drill is said to be
a marvellous one with the rapid-fire
guns, and many wanted to see it, One
of the members of the battery had his
leg broken while the practice was being
had at Chickamauga. Naturally the
members of the battery feel hurt that
they were, almost at the last moment
cut out of tie programme.
In the Horse Show tonight, Frank
NJ. Butner of Savannah had a team
entered, Princess and Daisy Belle.
They made splendid showing on the
tan bark, but in the opinion of the
judges We're outclassed by teams from
abroad. Professional horse show men
from Toronto, Canada, are here with
fine stock, and they are taking the best
of the prizes right along. The crowd
tonight was not so large as last night,
and the cavalry drill was again the
feature.

THE CRAIG INQUEST.
Examination Into Accident That
Nearly Killed the President.

, Examination Into Accident That
Nearly Killed the President.
pittsdeld, Mass. Oct. 15.-The find
ing in the inquest following the acct
dent in which President Roosevelt's
body guard, William Craig, was killed
here last September, filed to-day, says
that the unlawful acts Of James T.
Kelly. conductor, and Euclid Madden,
,ootorman." of the electric car which
ran into the Presidents carriage, "con-
tributed to the death of Mr.. Craig. +"
The finding was by Special Justice
Charles l.. Hibbard.
Justice Hubbard finds that the horses
attached to the Presidents carriage
were going at the rate of six miles an
hour and the car at from fifteen to
twenty-five miles an hour. He also
finds that there was a misunderstand-
ing on the part of the street car COM
panies of the city, as to what thor
oughfares were to be closed to traffic
during the Presidents visit. No evil
dence the report says, was found to
show that the car was not running on
regular schedule. or that the officials
Of the road had given any orders for it
to be run otherwise than under normal
conditions.
The report says:
THE justice was unable to find
whether or not the power was on when
the car struck the carriage. When the
car was $50 feet behind the carriage,
Gov Crane arose and motioned to stop.
Two of the mounted guards did the
same thing at the same time. AS the
Governor motioned the driver turned
the horses on the track. The speed
of the car was slackened in a slight
degree, as the brakes were applied.
There is no evidence that the cur
rent was reversed. The car was
brought to a standstill fortY-five feet
beyond the point of collision. 1t was
geared to a speed of fourteen and
three-quarters miles an hour and on
a level with a full load"
In conclusion the special justice finds
that the car was allowed to attain a
dangerous speed, the fender was not
properly locked in position; but that
if it had been, it would not in all
probability have prevented the death
of Craig, and that the unlawful act
of Motorman Madden and Conductor
Kelley contributed to the death of
Craig.
Kelley and Madden were arrested on
the day of the accident on the charge
of manslaughter, and they are now
under bail for trial Nov. l.

NOTHING TO SAY.
Coal Operators VIII Not Even Dis.
cuss the Anthracite Situation.

New York, Oct. 15.-The coal opera
tors generally to-day were exceedingly
averse to discussing the coal situation
in any way. To most of those seen the
question was put:
Would you assent to a change in the
personnel of the arbitration committee
proposed to deal with the matters in
dispute between the strikers and the
operators ?"
The answers of the various presidents
may be summarized i'm the reply made
by President Truesdale of the Lacka-
wanna, who said:
II would consider 1t highly improper
to talk about the matter at the present
time"
Some coal dealers who were holding
anthracite yesterday at a certain price
per ton, averaging about SIS, are to-
day asking bids for coal which they
have been holding in reserve.

cient to convince him that the inter-
ests of the church had no need to fear
injustice. The Archbishop promised to
do his utmost to carry out his instruc-
lions.
In the course of his audience with
the Pope, Archbishop Guidi was asked
for his opinion of the importance of his
work in the Philippines, and the length
of time it would require for it's accom-
plishment. The Archbishop replied that
the entire church organization there
must be remodeled. the clergy reform
ed, new dioceses created, bishops ap-
pointed and a synod formed. and that
his presence in the islands would be
required for not less than four or five
years.

MAGAZINE PRINTED IN BLOOD.
Imprint of Gore Published by Pack
ing House Employees

From the Philadelphia Record.
Sioux City, Ia. Oct. 1.-THE most
violent effort yet made to attract at
tention to new magazine is the de-
wise Of printing it in real blood.
The magazine is called The Knock
ers. 1t is written and published by
men enga ged in the packing industry
in this city, and the use of blood SYM
bolizes the avocation of the staff.
"a fuzzy bunch of packing house
rhymes is the way the preface reads,
printed on Ipski 30 paper, bound in
Zulu lavender, decorated with real
blood" Editors with bloody fingers
handle the books, leaving smeary fin
ger marks here and there. The books
are tied in bundles and placed in the
smoke house. where they are subject
ed to the touring" process. This leaves
them in fine brown state, and with
a very ancient and smoky scent. When
they emerge from this room they have
very much the color and scent of fine
bologna sausage.
