looms up in the Rainey horses Horace r.
and De Mund.
These two colts. despite their many fail
ures. are now regarded as the most dan
gerous ones In the race except the Keene
trio.
DE Mund has trained back into his early
form, and IL the trip down TO Sheepshead
Bay does not injure him he will give n
good account OF himself in the struggle
He is considered TO be much better now
than his stabemate. Horace f. De Mund
is cold-weather colt; he showed his best
speed In the spring. He is a nervous
high-strlng fellow and fast work during
hot weather seemed TO sap much OF his
vitality.
Mr.. Keene's intention 10 race three
horses is due to the fact that he realizes
that the speed OF De Mund will help ma
terially the chances OF Horace E. For
that reason he will send Pope Joan, his
equine whirlwind. TO the post. and IN
struct her Jockey TO race out In front
with De Mund and make him groggy in
the first half mile. He expects these tac-
tics will kill off De Mund and that then
his two colts. Peter Pan and Zambesi,
will come forward and win.
Peter Pan will probably carry 127
pounds. which is top weight. He won
enough money this summer 10 penali<s
him eight pounds. but as his sire Com
mando. had never sired a winner prior TO
1904. he viii receive an allowance OF three
pounds Pope Joan will carry l19 pounds
and Zambesi III pounds De Munds
weight will be 126 pounds and Horace
E.'s 122 pounds.
The other probable starters. with their
weights. are: Conville. 1922; Don Enrique,
122. Yankee Gun. l22 McCarter. 122; Oran,
126: Charles Edward. 122, and Altuda, lls.

 affuaff0m.

Situation.
 st. Petersburg, Nov .2s.--Prompt steps have been taken by Premier stolypin to deal with the situation aris- ing from the famine relief contract scandal in which a man named Lidval and M. Guerko assistant minister cE the interior, are involved.
 The premier has called a special meeting of the council of Ministers for tomorrow to discuss the affair M Guerko has resigned. When he pre- sented his resignation the premier told him he should not quit office. but that for his own sake at least he must face the court The premier is expected 10 appoint an inter- ministerial com mission, composed of assistant minis ters to investigate the case.
 He will then bring 1t without loss of time before the first department of the senate in public session. Orders have been given to at once collect evidence and submit to cross-examina- ton all persons connected with the afTair.
 The unhesitating fashion in which the premier Is handling this affair will, 1t is believed, strengthen the confidence in and aid the cabinet instead of in- turing it, at the approaching elections.

Februdry'S Snowfall.

The snowfall bulletin issued by the
Colorado section of Chronological
service, says that February was usual
ly dry throughout the mountain dis
tricts, the average fall for the month
being only five inches at stations on
the Arkansas watershed, while four
inches was the average for the South
Platte watershed, and that of the Rio
Grande, eight inches for the Grand,
and for the Gunnison watershed The
depths of the accumulated snowfall at
high altitude do not compare favorably
with those reported on corresponding
date of last year, except for the Gun.
nison, where there was little change.
On each of the remaining watersheds
the depths are about % per cent
smaller than last year.
