NEW YORK. Dec. is.-tSpecial )-severai
jockeys prominent during the past season
that has Just closed will have difficulty in
getting down to riding weight next year, IL
at all Among these are Willie Davis, who
was under contract TO Sydney Paget during
the eastern season and did considera hle
hiding for August Belmont; frankie ONcI
who rode for Newton Bennington and Fred
Rurlew and who piloted Roseben in nearly
All his memorable victories, and finished
second on the list of winning Jockeys for
the season; Arthur Redfern. who bears the
reputation 90 being the best horseman
among recent American Jockeys; Shaw.
LYME. J. Martin and others According to
reports, Willie Knapp. the little western
Jockey. who was one OF the remarkable
sensations OF the year. has also been taking
IN weight rapidly during the latter part Vt
the season and may have difficulty keeping
down to the required weight.
II can also be stated upon the best OF au-
thority that when the time rolls around FOR
the stewards of the Jockey club to deal gu.
the riding licenses for 1896 there is n strong
likelihood that at least three or four prom
inent riders will not find their names on the
list. That the stewards were dissatisfied
with the riding of a number OF Jockeys
no doubt, but the proving of dishonest acts
upon the part OF Jockeys is a serious propo-
siton. When # comes to granting licenses
II IS within the power of the stewards 70
simply omit certain names in the list with
out stating reasons. This, II is said on the
very highest authority. will be the course
pursued.
Recosds OF the Jockeys.
Several of the prominent American Jock
eys who hate been riding in different parts
Of Europe during the year have been arriv-
ing back home and more are expected
within the next few days. Among those
who have recently returned are Fred Taral
and Harry Lewis. who rode in Austria
Hoar. and Rausch, the little Californian
who was W. X. Vanderbit's leading jockey

NEWS OF BATTLE DAILY EXPECTED

The dispatches received from the
front are meager, but there are some
indications that General Linevitcb
has taken leaf out of Field Marshal
Oyama's book at the Shakhe river and
at Mukden, and that he is about to
advance himself and undertake a
counter offensive, meeting the Japan
csc pressure against his left by ad-
vancing his right. It is too early,
however, to determine whether the
moves thus far are more than feifts.
The question of general exchange of
prisoners, on which there have been
some negotiations, is still unsettled,
and the foreign Office here is not san
guaine that a general agreement is
possible. A partial exchange, cover
ing the crew of the Russian volunteer
cruiser Ekaternoslava, captured at the
opening of the war, and the crew OF
the japanese steamer Sabu, captured
by the Russians, has practically been
effected.

st. Petersburg. is an air of
expectancy at the admiralty which in.
dicates that news of Importance re,
garding Admiral Rojestvensky's feet
is awaited at any moment Officially
no information regarding the admiral's
whereabouts is volunteered, the officers
making no concealment of the fact
that they are not in the secret of Ro-
jestvensky's plans, but the majority
entertain no doubt that the Russian
fleet is now steaming towards it's ul-
innate destination.
While there is no official conf,rma-
ton of the Hongkong report that the
fleet has passed through the Bas>ae
channel, it is credited by those who
have insisted from the beginning that
Rojestvensky will give the island OF
Formosa wide berth to the west
ward. The admiral, it is said here,
has had ample time to reach the Pa
cific since he left the waters of Indo-
China. ...,.

posse headed by Sheriff Kelly went
from Lewisport to Waltman and
found Shaw sitting on his front porch.
Shaw quickly barricaded himself in
his house.
The posse tried to storm the house,
but the negro opened fire, wounding
James Ford and John Robinson. He
apparently had only small shot, which
saved the lives of those he aimed at.
Shaw was shot at twice. He had two
revolvers, but announced that he
would save them for work at close
range.
A great crowd gathered around the
house. keeping a safe distance away.
In the afternoon Will Brown, a deputy
sheriff of Hancock county, volunteered
to go to the house and take Shaw.
When within fifteen feet of Shaw, the
crazy man fired, blowing Browns head
completely off.
At o'clock at night mob of men
and boys surrounded Shaw's house
and set it on fire. Shaw remained in
the burning house as long as he could
stand the heat, and finally leaped OUT
and tried to escape. Nearly 100 shots
were fired and ShaWs body was rid

rear of the second of the waiting
trains. The forward car of the rear
train and the rear car of the other
train were badly smashed and left
hanging partly over the street.
The collision was followed by ter
rife explosion which set the elevated
structure on fire, and it was feared
that the blaze would extend to the
wrecked cars. A fire alarm was sound
ed and several of the firemen who re-
sponded were shocked by contact with
loose wires before the powerful third
