THE UNITED STATES SUSTAINED
The Orchard Grove Co. Was Never in
 Possession of the Post Ofiies.

The foreible and unlawful detainer ease brought in Justice Robertson'S coart against Postmaster McClintock was tried yesterday and decided against the plaintiff. This was really an action against the government for .respass The suit was supplemental to one in replevin brought in :ne dis uiot court.
 In this case it was alleged that the plaintiff was entitled to possession of the premises at the corner of First ave nue and Adams street or July l and then there was an interlineation in the bill alleging that the plaintiff was actu- ally in possession. That allegation was a construction of a notice from the government cancelling the lease of the property.
 Judge Kibbey, who appeared for the defendant believed that the plaintiff was not in possession at that time: that the notice that possession would be given on that date did net consti- tute actual possession; that at that time and at all times to the present moment the government of the United States was in possession; that the question of possession was the only one to be considered: that the right to pos session was a matter entirely outside the controversy.
 The testimony Of w. T. Smith. presi- dent oi the Orchard Grove Investment company, showed that no agent of the plaintiff had been about the postoffice on July 1. Various members of the company had called on Postmaster Mo Cintock on that date and had talked the matter over with him, and while they were talking had chewed gum vigorously and had made great many dollar marks upon piece of paper with short lead pencil. But the post master at no time during the several conversations was in the postiftice but at all times he was in his private office. which he occupies as d sub-tenant of the Phoenix meat market. which any ore would know by the odo~ which prevails within the private office. Mir Smith said that he had not seen the assistant postmaster. the registry clerk or anybody else who happened to be in actual supervision of the leased premises and fixtures which belonged
 to the Orchard Grove Investment com
 pany.
 The bill had alleged that the de. fendant was guilty of the things charg- 
 of the defendant was that he was not ! guilty and that answer was accepted as the correct one.
 | In commenting upon the case the court said that the plaintiff undoubt- edly had rights, bat that was some thing that had not been brought be- fore the court for adjudication. There
 was certainly no possession; if there ! had been the court was not sure that : the result would have been different. i President Smith. he said, might have | established a claim to possession by gong Cn the premises on the morning l of July 1, moving his desk into the postoffice and assuming a general su- ! pervision of affairs. Tn that case he { would probably have been thrown out | of his own building and charged with [ interference with the United States
 mails.

PLUNKETT LOST
And the Gray Mare Herself Was Lost
 in the Shuffle.

The race yesterday between Jack Gibson's Belladona and Tex McAllis- ter's gray mare Plunkett was rather one sided. but IL was still quite eXcit- ing on account of the money that had been put up in jeopardy. Some of the spectators were lured into putting up money on Plunkett on account of the twenty-five feet start allowed her by the terms of the race. They did not take into account the probability that that distance would be wiped out in an instant by Commodore Passey? the rider of. .Belladona. That was precisely what happened. Then Plunkett baked and took to the stubble. Pas5ey waited for her and when she got 10 going again there was a hot spurt for 150 yards. when Belladona shot ahead and fin ished the three -eighths an easy winner.
 The purse was S1.00o. In addition to that the owner of Belladona gathered up nearly thousand more on side bets. There is no estimate Of the individua. betting, but great deal of money changed hands.
 Plunkett will never be run again under the McAllister colors. for the mare went with the pot. Her owner had bet her to William Mayors, whe turned the winning oyer to John Gib- son.
