At Hot Springs.

Hot Springs, Ark, January IA dis qualification, an owner fined $10O by the judges, and a jockey warned away from the track furnished plenty of excitement to tie racing at Essex park this after noon. After his ride on Deluson, the favorite in the second race, H. Cochran received word from Judge Murphy that he must cancel al his engagements, in- cluding those in stakes, as he would not be allowed to ride here the rest of the meeting.
 Cochran got away with Delusion abso- lutely last, laid behind with her along the back stretch, finishing third length back. Hughie McCarren came to grief as a result of the opening race for two-year- oles at three furlonss. His colt, Mint Boy was made faVorite in spite of the fact that he had to shoulder 125 pounds Mint Boys price was raised at post time, and the change in the betting 1t Is said brought from McCarren the remark that 1t looked as if his colt would not win. Mint Boy failed to finish in the money MeCarren's remark was repeated to the Judges and in consequence he was fined slO0 for lack of care in conversation, and a warning that another such remark would mean his expulsion from the turf. Henchman, well played. won the two- year-old race beating Calabash a head Romany Rye, Respess' colt, secured third money. The third feature came in the third race when Amorous won at six and a half furlongs and was disqualified for 1olting Billy Moore.

DECISION Is GIVEN ID THE RAILROAD Important Suit in Mobile is
 Terminated TERMINALS WERE INVOLVED Was One of the Many Suits Now Pend ing Known as the "Rlver Front
 Suits In the City of
 Mobile.
TERMINALS WERE INVOLVED

Mobile, January 1.-The case of the city or Mobile vs the Mobile, Jackson and Kansas City Railroad company. an ejectment suit involving the terminal property of the railroad company ter minated to-day in a verdict for the de- fendant after four days trial in the circuit court. Special Judge Palmer Pi- lans presided.
 The suit is one of the many now pend- ing in various courts known as the
 river front suits," in which the city seeks to recover the shore and soil under Mobile river. The railroad company con tended that it's property is bounded by Mobile bay and not by Mobile river, as alleged, and the jury's verdict supported the contention This was the only point left to the decision of the jury, other points in the case being questions of law.
 The questions argued involved the validity of Statutes, their construction. the repeal of statutes, the measurement of waters and the scientific rules by which the questions of rivers and bays are determined. With the legal authori- ties, dictionaries, maps, pictures and pho- tographs were offered In support of con- tentions by each side, and after much ransaclSing of legal tonnes a decision was found and put in showing the waters are measured from headland to headland.
 This was admitted by the court and gave to the jury the only question left for their decision as to whether a line showing the course of river and Pintos island on the eastern bank, struck Choc- Jaw Point, where the railroad property is located, at the shoulder or at the ex- treme point. The settlement of this ques- ton was of great importance to the pub lie and to the railroad, as the drawing of the river line involved the most valu- able property of the company, and if the jury had decided that the line struck a point inside the promontory formed by Choclxtaw Point. the decision would have deprived the company of access to nav igable waters. and would have destroyed the value of it's terminals.
 Additional importance is given to the case as the United States government is a party to the litigation on the shore line of Choclxtaw Point. having an interest with the railroad in it's piers and terminal property. The government has taken it's case into the federal court, and United States District Attorney w. H. Arm brecht has been twice summoned to Washington to confer with the Attorney General on the subject.

PREDICTS FALL OF
 RUSSIAN AUT0CRACY
PRESIDENT WOLNER SAYS THIS WILL BE THE LAST ECHO OF THE VOICE OF THE kISHINEV MASSACRE.

Chicago, January 17-"The overthrow O. Russian autocracy will be the last echo of the voice of Kishinev."
 This was a prophecy made in passing over the subject of Jewish civil and re- llgious rights in America by President Samuel Wolner of the Union of Ameri- can Hebrew congregations, in making his report to the nineteenth council of the organization today He advised the Union to oppose all possible future legislation which might be inimicabe to Jewish in- terests. Speaking of the work of the board of delegates on civil and religious rights, President Wolner said:
 While the Kishinev protest was not of ficially the work of our board of dele gates, yet our chairman, simon Wolf, was one of the workers who, with the late lamented Leo N. Levi, framed this his- torical document, and stirred the Amer ican citizens to endorse it in righteous wrath. The overthrow of the Russian au- tccracy will be the last echo of Kishi- nev."
 In the course of his report President Wolner styled President Roosevelt . champion of humanity"
 Prominent Jewish clergymen and lay men from all parts of the United States attended the opening session of the coun- ell at the Standard club. Three hundred delegates representing 1S4 Hebrew congre- gations were present. Adolph Kraus of Chicago, called the meeting to order. For mer Judge Philip Stein of Chicago, was chosen permanent chairman.
 President Samuel Wolner of Peoria, in his annual message also referred to educa- tional progress, saying: "Of all institu- tions that bring pride to the American Jew. the Hebrew Union college should be the foremost The college now has a subscribed endowment fund of $400,000 The recommendation of the last council that congregations and Sabbath schools be organized in small towns, thereby op- ening the field for circuit preaching. has been carried out. Sixty of these congre- gations and Sabbath schools have been or ganized in the last two years.'
 In conclusion President Wolner recom- mended that the organization collect a record of the notable achievements of the Jews in America in the varied de- partments of religion, education and in- dustry; science, literature, art and pub lie life as well as reliable statistics of the Jewish population of this country These recommendations were approved by the convention.

SLAG PILE SETTINGS.

Tho Sporting Life correspondent gives some interesting news of some of the old Southern League players who are in the major ranks these days He says:
 Everything of a baseball nature is as quiet here this week as one of those foul strike pitchers battles. after one side gets couple of runs. The Southern League averages are of some interest enough to discount, in the estimation of fandom, such side issues as the fall of Port Arthur or the reassembling of Con gress. The record of outfleder Knoll of Nashville, will be carefully scrutnized here, as he will receive a try-out with the Senators. In l01 games he batted for .26S, made GA runs. stole 22 bases and made 12 sacrifice hits. As fielder he ranks twenty fifth out of fifty-five with an average of .951 .n Il games He caught thirty games for Nashvine, being fourth among twenty-one catchors. Several Washingtonians played in the Southern and showed well, as a rule, Demontre- vile. Atz, Stanley and Luskey are among them. Demont hit fir .2SS and ranked high in fielding. Atz reached .21 in bat ting and led Ill ,hc shortstops except Smith of Shreveport; and Stanley and Luskey also got in their work in good shape. Stanley and Atz were drafted by the Chicago Americans Gilbert. the Pitts burg player drafted by Washington. prac- tcally led the league in batting.
 President Soden of the Boston Nationals has commenced to corral his players for the Southern trip. and announced to- day the Southern games schedule as follows: Report Washington. D. C., first week in March; train at Savannah. Ga, till middle of March; then to Birmingham, Ala. until March 2S working their way north with games at Nashville March %, 30; Louisville, April 1, 2; Indianapolis, April 3, 4; Columbus (conditionaD April g.
