INVESTIGATING RACE OF
OCTOBER 18, 1904

Lexington, KY, June 1.-The
Board of Review of the Natioral
Trotting association met here today
and began an investigation into
charges concerning the manner in
which the famous race between Lou
Dillon and Major Delmar for the
gold cup at Memphis, October 1S,
1904, was conducted. 1t has been
charged that Lou Dillon had been
tampered with just previous TO the
race and the decision of the race was
held up pending the decision of the
Board of Review. The man, who ii
was charged, tampered with Lou
Dillon, was Mr.. Elmer e. Smathers,
the owner of Major Delmar, the
horse which won that race. An at
tempt will be made to prove that
Smathers had nothing to do with the
case and that, according to the ad-
mission of Mir. Billings, the owner OF
Lou Dillon, just before and after the
race, the famous trotter was under
the weather" at the time of the race
The session of the board is held al

Madrid. June 1.-The king and MS
bride before lunch today, rode through
the streets of Madrid in an automo-
bile without an escort. They were
loudly acclaimed by the people.
Kings Goodness Remarkable.
The GOODNESS of the young king was
marvellous. On reaching the palace
after the explosion, he sent adjutants
to assist the wounded, and later sent
officers among the families of the vic
tins, to do everything possible to
console their families and assist the
sufferers.
It is asserted that letters were re-
ceived in government quarters last
night, saying that this would not
be the last attempt, as the band of
conspirat tors had declared their in
tention TO keep up their efforts.
This led TO a discussion of an ad-
journment of some of the main feat
ures of the fetes, in which the royal
family were to be conspicuously pres
ent The people no longer show the
Hveliness and hilarity heretofore ex-
hibited, and a pail seems to have
fallen over the community.
The proximity of the coach of
Grand Duke Vladimir of Russia to the
royal coach at the time of the explo-
sion led many spectators to believe
that the attempt was made against
his life. but later, it was generally
accepted that the bomb was directed
against the king and queen The for
mer view was sent out by the Asso'
ciated Press yesterday afternoon.

Convention of Lincoln Party.

Philadelphia, Pa, June 1.-The
first state convention of the Lincoln
party met at Musical Fund hall yes
terday forenoon to perfect its ar
rangement for the coming campaign
and to nominate a state ticket The
convention has been set one week
ahead of the date of the republican
convention for the double purpose of
giving expression 10 the desire of the
new party 10 preserve its independ-
ence from any republican influence
and to force the republicans, If pos
sible to endorse The candidates
selected by the IICJln party.
The forenoon was devoted to the
preliminary work of the convention,
the appointment Of committees, etc,
and the nominations will not be
reached until some time this after
noon. II is believed in well informed
circles that Lewis Emery, Jr., of
Bradford, will be nominated for gov
ernor, but there are enough who IA
yor Associate Justice John Stewart
to make a lively contest probable.
Bayard Henry, OF Philadelphia seems
20 be the choice for Lieutenant gov
ernor; Robert X. Young, of Tioga, for
auditor general.

Vanderbilt system Of Rail-
roads at the Modest
Salary
OF $4,000 PER EACH YEAR
Son of a Poor Baptist Preacher
and Is Only Fifty Three
Years of Age.

New York, June William Carlos
Brown, formerly one of the vice
presidents OF the New York Central,
the Lake Shore & Michigan Central
railroads, with headquarters in Chi
cago, today became acting head of
the vast Vanderbilt system of rail-
roads, with headquarters in this city.
Mr.. William II. Newman, the presi-
dent of the system, who has been
awaiting the arrival of Mr.. Brown,
turned over the control of the road
to Mr.. Brown and will leave in a few
days for two months vacation Mr..
Brown, who Is believed to be slated
for the presidency of the system, will
draw salary of $4,000 a year.
William C. Brown has had a re-
markable career in the railroad world
and his new position brings added
honOrs. He draws the highest salary
Of any railroad vice president in the
world. When the American IJocomo-
tive works recently offered to Brown
the presidency with a salary of $50,
600 a year he declined the offer. The
offer was raised TO $4,000 a year but
Mr. Brown decided to remain in the
railroad business and with the New
York Central lines.
Mr. Brown is the son of a poor
Baptist preacher and was born in
Herkimer county, New York in 1853
He worked on the farm and in June
1869 entered the railroad service as
a section hand on the st. Paul road
While in that position he learned
telegraphy and became a train dis
patcher for the Illinois Central. In
1890 he went to the Burlington rail-
road as 4 train dispatcher His rise
to the general managership of that
road was phenomenal. In July 1901
he became vice president and gem
eral manager Of the Lake Shore. and
his success in the operation of that
system caused his jurisdiction to be
extended to all New York Central
lines. As an operating officer his
reputation is second to none in the
country. It is expected that after his
return frim his vacation President
Newman will succeed Chauncey NJ
Depew as chairman of the New
York Central, while Brown will be-
come president.

May at Own Discretion De.
termine on Admitting
Visitors.
CHANGE FROM THE OLD WAY
When Officer Couldn't Invite His
Own Brother 10 Look at the
Fort DefenSeS.

Washington, d. c.. June 1.-Officers
of the coast artillery are gratified
with the order which permits them
to exercise their own discretion mad
mitting within the limits of coast for
tifications visitors who are not of the
service. Hitherto ironclad rules have
prevailed against the admissiO ION of
visitors in general, with the result
that oftentimes commanding officers
have been much embarrassed by ap-
plications from personal friends of
whose integrity and loyalty there was
no question and who wished to look
at the big guns. Added to this fact,
il is suspected that foreigners and
others who want diagrams and plans
of coast defences have no difficulty
in getting them, especially at one OF
the forts in the neighborhood of New
York, where a trolley line skirts the
entire Notifications in way which
commands an intimate and unob
Structed view of the defensive works
Another element which impresses
the authorities in that any person
seeking the work of laborer can OBJ
tain employment on the coast forti-
ficatiOns in their construction anr re-
pairs, so that those who want plans
and other information have only 10
employ a keen observer of ordinary
intelligence to get employment as a
laborer at a coast fort. He may be so
much of a foreigner as to be unable
to speak the English language, and
yet get into the secret recesses of a
coast fort without difficulty. On the
other hand, a commanding officer un-
der the old rules could not ask his
own brother to look at a battery OF
guns. After much deliberation the
general staff has decided that COM
manding officers of the army forts
may be trusted to exercise their own
discretion

NOTED LAWSUIT HAS
COME TO AN END.

Munich, June 1.-An interesting
case, which has been in the courts
for some time and has caused
great deal of amusement and specula-
tion, has just been decided by one of
the Bavarian courts. The judgement
rendered is one which is worthy of
Solomon. The facts in the case were
briefly as follows. A cat which was
chased by a dog. sought refuge in a
stable, where a milkmaid was just
milking a COW. The cat anxious to
get out of the reach of the dog.
jumped on the back of the COW. The
milk dispenser startled by the Jump
of the cat and angry over the pain
caused by the sharp claws of pussy,
expressed her dissatisfaction by
vigorous kick which knocked the
maid off her stool and caused her
sundry more or less painful injuries.
The maid was anxious to seek re-
dress for her injuries by suing some
body for damages. Then the ques-
tion arose, who should be held re-
sponsible for the injuries, which. as
it appeared, were the result of a
chain of offences on the part of the
three animals The matter was
brought before the courts and now
the courts in their wisdom have given
their Solomonic decision. 1t is to the
effect that the cat, the dog and the
COW were equally guilty and, there
fore, the owner of these animals
equally responsible for the injuries
