SECOND HEAT GONE IN ia
Jockey Shakes Off His Weights and
is Obliged to Return to the Scales
Big Crowd Grows Restless.

A good field of talent was listed
yesterday at Ninth street track, but
on account of some parleying among
the horsemen when it came time to
start the third race, the Labor day
handicap, twenty minutes or more was
consumed, and as a result with the
large number of races dOcketed. a
running half-mile was postponed until
today. The crowd present. a very
large one. was disappointed on ac-
count of the race not being run, and
gave vent to it's feelings by jeering at
the management.
The first event, pacing race, one
half mile dash. best two in three, was
easily won by Billy the Ghost, n bay
gelding. owned by William Munroe, of
Davenport. MaUde Long. a black mare.
owned by Fred Long, of Moline. took
second place, while Russhioneer Maid,
4 bay mare, owned by Mayor G. p.
Skinner. of Moline came under the
wire third. ~LeCOmp, owned by NJ.
Lucas, of Davenport, was drawn after
he first heat on account of the shafts
Of the bike To which she was hitched
having been broken. The time of the
first heat was lis. The second heat
was trotted in 1:lf.
Billy the Ghost sdot like a whirl-
wind from her competitors from the
word go. and she led the bunch easily
around the circle. The other horses
we're well together in the first heat.
Russhioneer Maid and Maude Long
were side by side. with LeCOmp half
length back of them. LeCOmp weak
cncd at the pole and fell back. Rus
shionccr Maid was slightly in the lead
IF Maude Long at the back stretch.
Here the two horses fought hard to
get second place. With a smart squirt,
Maude Long was pushed past Rus
Shioneer Maid. and the two were trot-
ted warmly under the wire this way
and finished close. The second heat
was easily won again by Billy the
Ghost. The other two had another
battle royal but Maude Long kept up
her reputation and took second place
The purse was silver cup.

The second event. running half

run and closely contested. Polly

Jury Decides Bates County Official
Not Guilty of Attempt to
Bride kratz Juror.

Butler, Mo-. Dec. 17.-Sheriff Joe T.
Smith of Bates county, who was
charged with bribery in connection
with the Kratz case, was acquitted
here Friday by the jury which had
been out just six minutes.
The specific charge against Sheriff
Smith was an attempt to bride juror
H. C. Hunt, who was impaneled to sit
in the case against Charles Kratz, who
was charged with bribery in connec-
ton with the Suburban deal in st.
Louis. The case did not go to trial at
the time, because of the illness OF
Kratz, but the u jurymen had been
selected.
The second charge of bribery con-
nected with the Kratz ase caused a
great deal of excitement, and it had
apparently not abated when the case
came up for trial. The court house
was crowded with spectators.
The jury which acquitted Sheriff
Smith was composed of farmers. The
state was represented by Prosecuting
Attorney A. B. Ludwig, and the de-
PENDANT by Attorney C. w. Jackson.
Sheriff Smith has served one term as
sheriff of this county, and his present
term expires January l.

be guaranteed by the. Philippine gov
eminent from five to four per cent.
The bill, as passed, exempts from
taxation all bonds issued by the Phil
ippine and Porto Rican governments;
authorizes municipalities in h Phil
ippines to incur a bonded Indebtedness
amounting to five per cent. of the as
sessed valuation of their property at

Philippine government to incur a
bonded indebtedness of $4,000, 900 for
improvements at Az per cent. interest,
authorizes the Philippine government
to guarantee the payment of interest
on railroad bonds at the rate of four
per cent. per annum; provides for the
administration of the immigration
laws by the Philippine authorities; es-
tablishes a system for the location and

such contended that the stocks and

to reduce the fund to meet the condi-
tons of the will, and return SIS, 900

KRUGER'S BODY NOW AT REST
Remains of Former President Of
Transvaal Buried at Pretoria.
Immense Crowd of BOers and Brit
Ons Witnessed Last Rites to the
Dead President.

Pretoria, Transvaal, Dec. 1.-TWO
thousand burghers attended an impress
sive religious service, Friday, prior to
the burial of the body of former Pres
ident Kruger. Several ministers of
the Dutch churches spoke, all euloglz-
ing the ex-president for his exemplary
religious life, and as a lover OF his
people, and exhorting the Beers, while
remaining loyal to the new flag, never
to forget the principles of their late
leader or their own language.
An immense crowd filed through the
death chamber throughout the morn
ing. The coffin was draped with the
T~ransvaal and Orange Free State
flags, and on it were the tributes OF
Queen Wilhelmina and the queen
mother of Holland.
The day was gloomy and overcast,
but an immense crowd of Britons and
Beers filled the square opposite the
hall, to which the remains were re-
moved after the church services. Many
Beers had trekked long distances to at
tend the o%bsequies of their former
leader, but Britons met the men OF the
veldt, and mingled on the friendliest OF
terms.
The Afrikander party was officially
represented by populations from Cape
(SD1Aru Oran0o riuar and Natal Al
the hall, speeches of eulogy were de-
livered by Generals Louis Botha
Granddaughter and Christian De Wet.
Gen. Botha read a letter from Mr..
Kruger, exhorting them to preserve
the Boer national spirit. The reading
Of this letter created a profound i'm
preston.
Gen. Botha's speech strongly recon-
mended unification of the white races in
South Africa, as that is the only means
by which they can become a great peo-
pie and realize Kruger's ideal.
The procession of the ceremony was
composed of fully 1900 persons, while
the route through which it passed was
thronged with people. Flags were half
masted, bells tolled, and under gov
eminent orders, minute guns were
fired at the military depot. Around
the grave, where Mr.. Kruger was laid
beside his wife, were gathered rela-
tives, Boer leaders and many promi-
nent personages, including Sir Richard
Solomon, representing the British gov
eminent. By the kings special request,
a salute of 81 guns was fired as the
coffin was lowered into the grave.
