EVIDENCE FAVORS BiLLix.
Arsenic Found in Body of Henry Me
 mann, Dead Three Years.

Chicago, Ill.-Arsenie, the poison that was used to murder the Nzral family, has been found in ,le body of Henry Niemann, who was supposed to have died of heart trouble three years ago on his farm near Downer's Grove
 An inquest will be held Tuesday night. Emma Niemann, daughter-in- law of Henry Niemann, will be pres ent.
 Rev. Peter J. Buckingham, head of the Pauiist Fathers Ia Chicago, in. duced the Outage county authorities to dig Up Niemann's body and paid the chemist for making the analysis.
 Bilik Is under sentence of death for the murder of the Vzral family and would have been hanged but for the activity Of Father O'Callaghan.
 It is the contention of the priest that If Niemann can be shown to have died in exactly the same manner as the Vzrals, the inference will be that some one equally intimate with both families committed all the murders.

 Greater Freedom.

Constantinople-On the abdiea- tion of the throne by Sultan Alb dul Hamid will satisfy the members of the Young Turkey" party. whose arrogance over the success that has attended their fight for greater Turk. ish freedom threatens to react in the defeat of the inaugurated reforms
 The military organization of the Young Turks in Macedonia and Asia Minor, the strength of which forced the Sultan to grant the constitution, has been intact Backed by it, the Macedonian reformers are demanding still other concessions from the Sul- tan, and, in the event of his refusal, political leaders express the fear that another uprising will be inaugurated and the Empire thrown into war
 In an effort to pacify the Macedo- nians, the Sultan has sent Koutshouk to Macedonia to explain the new con. stitution. Everything possible will be done to allay the fear in this part of the Empire. as it is recognized that the support of the young Turks is nee essary to the fulGllment Of the prom. issd reforms.

that he got so many exchanges that
they were a burden and a nuisance

practically impossible for him to stay

10 go through his exchanges with any
thing like system or thoroughness.
But all the same, no editor should

a man dies he decides the most inn

question that God has put up to every

KENTUCKY
TUR|TY
Pioneer Futurity is Worth
SCI 90 to the Winner
Of Purse.
Special to The journal.


Lexington, KY, March 16.-Entries
closed today for the nineteenth re-
newal of the Kentucky Futurity. IN
der the auspices of the Kentucky
Trotting Horse Breeders association.
This stake, valued at S21 900, is the
pioneer futurity, and is for foals or
mares bred last season. DO changes
have been made in the conditions
which govern this stake. The nomina-
ton fee for each mare still remains at
the old figure of So and the substit,t-
ton clause is the same as of old;
also the different payments at the old
style. That the reform wave in har-
ness turf futuTities has not bothered
the Kentucky association is not sur
prising.
The kentuckianS do not even pay
any attention to the recommendations
OF the, American Trotting Horse
Breeders association, which in its
first annual meeting in New York pro-
posed to make futurity races uniform
ly best two in three The Kentucky
F'uturity will again be contested in
the 1872" style of best three in five,
with every prospect of recording an
other six-heat race for 3-year-old
youngsters.
Secretary Wilson has been reported
oo oIdLAHS e1lo HdQ
carefully considered the suggestion of
shortening the colt races, and would
have complied gladly with it had it
not been for its firm conviction that
1t is no hardship for 3-year-olds to
race in the aRtiauated system OF
three in five at the end of the sea
son, when the contestants are practi-
caBly Agar olds; that it would not
be in line with his associations policy
Of the past forty years not to seek to
improve the stamina as we'll as the
speed of the trotting horse.
The Kentucky Futurity Is not only
the oldest of its kind on the turf, but
also the richest stake for colts or aged
horses in existence for so many
years. 1t is also entirely different
from all other colt stakes. for the rea-
son that the Kentucky classic is Civ
en- and managed by a private corpo-
ration
No claim is made for this stake as
being given wholly for the improve
ment of the trotter Or the advance
ment of the sport, as is done for the
journalistic stakes, consequently the
conditions governing the Kentucky
stake, right or wrong, have never
been alluded to by those who speak
or write of reforms in this branch of
the turf.
It is private and the donors can
manage it as they please, yet the re-
suit of this, the nineteenth renewal,
with nomination fee OF S.. substitu-
ton and racing under the OLD, system
will be watched with some interest
by horsemen and breeders.

Hon. JEFF Browne, candidate for
governor, is sensitive under the
charge that he is a prohibitionist for
office only. and he is publishing in
some of the state papers very strong
testimonials from ministers and 9th
ers in Key West that he was an elo.
quent talker On the side OF the "drys''
in the prohibition campaign in that
city last fall. Mr.. Browne has made
his prohibition record clear enough,
but there are no indications as yet
that prohibition is an issue In the
gubernatorial campaign. 1t is well
enough, however, to be on the right
side. for when We think of nearly
forty dry" counties in Florida and
about half a dozen "wet" ones, it is
pretty evident on which side the ma
jority of the people are. But Stockton
is also prohibitionist and he can
show older papers ON the subject than
Browne can, if we have been rightly
informed.
