AUCTION SALE
 OF THOROUGHBREDS

Cleveland, O, May 13.-Horsemea from all over the country are i'll CleYe- land today to bid on Major Delmar and the numerous other thoroHghbreds from the stables of C. K. G Billings, 10 be sold al the Fasig-TiptOn sale during the week The Billings con signment includes eFefy light harness horse owned by the millionaire ana teur rensman, with he exception of Lou Dillon, the worlds champion trot- ter, and her recent foal by John \. McKerron
 Among the celebrated horses that will he sold under the harness are the champion trottins gelding, Major Del mar, 1:59 3-i the pacing stallion Blalock, 2:07 1-2; several brood mares all in foal to John \. McKerron, in cluding Mazette. 2:04 If; Imogena, 2:f1 1-2; Fanny Foley, 2:19 IT, wagon record, 2:11: Bugle, ? F 1-2; and Glad News, 2:14. Five two-year-olds by Me Kerron, four yearlings by the same horse and one by Fred 5. Wedgewood out of Lucille are also included in the Billings string, and it is expected will be eagerly sought for
 Major Delmar, the greatest trotting gelding in the world, was purchased at auction two years ago by Mr Bill ings for s15,500, the horse having been sent to the block by E. E. Smathers. who drove the champion in his race against Lou Dillon for the Memphis gold cup. Blalock, the whirlwind pacer, was purchased by Mr. Billings last year for S10,000.
 The decision of the Chicago mill lionaire to quit the harness racing game is believed to be due to the Mem phis gold cup scandal, which was fought out in the courts. Mr Billings has been identified with matinee rac ing for the last twelve years and ia that time has owned more harness horses with exceptional records than any other amateur in the country. He has never placed even the smallest wager on the result of a race, engag- ing in the game purely for sport, with ribbon or a trophy as sufficient re- ward. His retirement will be dis tinct loss to the turf.

Chicago, May 13.-Nothing but the cooperation of Old Sol is now needed to insure the greatest blowout ever attempted by baseball team when the great silk pennant awarded to the worlds champion White SoX is hoist ed tomorrow, as a preliminary to the game with Washington.

WESTERN LAND
 FRAUDS

Washington, May 13.-Disclosures of land frauds, even more sensa- tional than those of Idaho and Utah are expected to result from the in- vestigations of the federal grand jury that will begin it's sessions in Denver tomorrow. Many men higher up" are believed to be in- volved in the various alleged viola tions of the federal statutes relating to the requirement of coal lands in Colorado. Revelations of illegal practices made during the hearing held by the interstate commerce commission in Denver about five months ago will, it is understood, form the basis of the coming in quiry. The investigation is par ticularly interesting at this time, since it is likely to involve the prn- cipal enemies of the Western Fed eration of Miners, whose officers are now on trial for murder in Boise For some time o. E. Pagan and NJ. c. Burch, special officers of the de- partment of justice in Washington. have been in Colorado collecting evidence to be presented to the grand jury
 At the December hearing of the commerce commission in Denver much data was secured tending to incriminate the officials of the Utah Fuel company, concern affiliated with the Colorado Fuel & Iron company and the Denver & Rio Grande railroad. all of which are controlled by the Gould interests This testimony was turned over to the department of justice, which continued the inquiry. Several of- ficials of the Utah Fuel company have already been indicted in Utah because of theeir allged illegal op- erations in that state. It is known
 
 before the grand jury that they filed on coal lands at the request of an attorney supposedly represent ing the Utah Fuel company, later disposing of their claims to this at torney for S59 each.
 The law governing the disposal of coal lands by the government re- quires the applicants to swear that they are filing on the land solely for their own use. Wholesale violations of this oath have resulted in prac- tically all the valuable coal lands of the western states becoming the property of great railroad and other corporations having their headauar- ters on Wall street,

TEXAS RATE CASE.

Washington, May 13.-Arguments will be heard tomorrow by the in- terstate commerce commission in the case of the Cattle Raisers' as sociation of Texas and other con- plants against the Chicago, Burling- ton X Quincy and other railroads.
 The commission will grant a hear ing in Los Angeles Wednesday on the complaint of the California Fruit Growers exchange against the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific railroads. The petition of the citrus fruit growers was filed by telegraph and the action of the commission on the case has broken all records for promptness. The complaint arises from regulation recently adopted by the defendant roads, whereby they supply ears for the shipment of fruits only in proportion to the amount picked and ready for ship ment. The complaint alleges that this regulation results in much de- lay in securing cars and consequent loss to the fruit shippers. The commission is asked to decide upon q just and proper regulation for the distribution of cars.

Sulphur, the Great Germicide.

What does the health department or phy- sician do in house where there has been Diphtheria, Scarlet Fever, Consumption or some form of contagious disease! Fumi- gates it-burns sulphur in every room, nook, corner and cranny Ask them why, and they will say "To kill the germs of the disease" ~-~-.->--- -
 Very well, if sulphur will kill disease germs in room or house, won't t kill them in the human body, if the sulphur can be applied or given in way that will per init it to penetrate as thoroughly and com pletely as the sulphur fumes'
 But the human lungs cannot stand sui- rhur fumes and as stated before, flowers Of sulphur fpowdered sulphur are not eftlca- cious. Then the only other thing IS to hnd some way of applying sulphur tothe human body so that it will penetrate the entire sys- tenn and reach the cause of the trouble.
 Littell's Liquid Sulphur does this; itstops itching instantly and permanently relieves all forms of skin complaint, eczema, cry sipelas, pes, running sores, letter, ring worm, chaps, roughness, redness or skin botches.

INSANE WOMAN
HELD IN JAIL
Resident of Lyons Apartments Found
in Bathroom in Home of Stranger
and Refuses to Explain
Circumstance

Mrs. May Fowler, a well dressed wo-
man aged 80 years, and who resides at
the Lyons apartments, 928 South Hope
street, was taken to the police station
last night and placed in the detention
ward as an insane person.
Mrs. Fowler was found in the bath
room of the residence of Mrs L. M.
Warner at 357 South Hill street at
about o'clock. She was acting queerly
and refused to give any explanation of
how she came there or what she wanted.
She would make no statement concern
ing herself and absolutely refused to
leave the place.
Word was sent to the police station
and an officer was sent to the Louise to
investigate the case. He took the wo-
man to the police station where she was
examined by the surgeons, who stated
that she was suffering from some hallu-
cination At the station she became
violent and had to be restrained. Later
she became quiet and talked nationally,
but refused to give her name and ad-
dress.
BY telephoning to a number of ad-
dresses found on cards in her purse 1t
was learned who she i9 and the fact that
she is residing with a friend of the
name of Mrs Messick at The Lyons.
Mrs. Messick stated that Mrs. Fowler
had once been confined in sanitarlum
In the east for treatment for nervous
disease and that while she was rational
at all times except at rare intervals, she
had not had a like attack for a long
time and it was believed that she was
cured.
Mrs. Fowler will be detained at the
station until this morning, when her
friends will remove her.
