New York, April l5.--The Metro

the days program was carried Cut
without interference. and with only
slight changes in the usual system Of
betting. OutWaTdly there We're no

Waged at Albany for two months to

many small concessions to the pub

In spite of a cold, DRILLING rain,
$4,000 spectators were i'm HE grand
stand, ana on the field when the in
augural scramble of five furlOngs
went to PantOufle. There was bet
ting--almost as much as usual-but
there were certain restrictions on
both the bettor and the bookmaker.
For instance, no more than l25 books
were allowed in the main betting pa
yllion and 100 in the field, All stools
ana cash bets were barred, and the
bOokmakers took their places in two
long rows and accepted and paid wa
gers out of hand Programs with the
odds mraked opposite the horse
name, furnished the only informa-
ton available to the spectators. No
bet less than S. was accepted in the
main pavilion, while 50 was the min
mum wager permissible in the field.
These changes had no apparent effect
on the eager betturs There was
plenty Of money apparently and 1t
was wagered as freely as in previous
years.

INSURANCE MAN
VISITS THE CAMP
FIND IT ABOVE AyERAGE--ELY
CITY EXCELLENTLY SITUATED
As TO RATE REDUCTIONS.

Thomas w. Duckels, special agent
With several prominent fire insurance
companies, leaves the city this morn
ing for his headquarters in Denver.
following a couple of days spent here
locking the situation over with ref
ference to fire insurance matters. Mr..
Duckels travels Colorado. Montana,
Wyoming, Idaho and Utah, with oc-
casional side trips into Nevada and
california. He is therefore not I'M
acquainted with mining district cit
les. but on the other hand is quail
fed through acquaintance to speak
lof them from thorough knowledge
Asked yesterday as to his impressions
of this district. Mr., Duckels said
1T certainly has good look. As
| fer the towns of Ely and Ely City,
they strike me as well above the av-
erage mining camp cities, particular
| " so in the case of Ely City. The
latter is marvel to the .Wayfarnr ac-
cus.omed TO expect mining camp ac-
recommendations in the middle of the
desert in a comparatively new camp.
The manner of the building Of Ely
| Ciy. too. appeals to an insurance man.
| IL looks safe, substantial and good
and there is plenty of room for ex-
pansion without dangerous increase
Of fire risks. In this regard improved
buildings will doubtless later on help
| Ely out to considerable extent"
Asked regarding local insurance
rates. Mr.. Duckels said that his visit
here bore no relation to matters of
rating and that he was not qualified
on SO short acquaintance with the
town to express opinion. 1t struck
him. however. that very reasonable
rates were being enjoyed in view of
the close manner In which Ely Is
built up and in view of the large
mum Der of frame shaeks which we're
linterspersed with the better class of
buildings Nv leit the town builds
up with brick structures and tie fire
department efficiency is increased, it
Is probable reduction In rates will
come about" he concluded. "hut not
until then"

Terrible was the fate of Tom Mar

about two years porter in various sa-
looms of the district. A fit of epilep-

the district. having acted for many
months as a saloon porter, had been

During the greater portion of that
time he had been drinking heavily
Yesterday morning to effects OF his
long spree became evident when he
fell to the floor in an epileptic fit
cutting his head severely. He was
placed on the floor and his wound
attended to. Shortly after this he
seemed to revive but later sunk into
d stupor. After some time he reused
and getting to his feet staggered Out
the back door of the saloon.
After a short time his friends, be
coming worried. went out to look fol
HIM, but on opening the door of the
closet saw nothing of him. Later Al
occurred to them that he might have
fallen into the pool. On looking the,
saw his feet protruding through the
surface of the pools contents.
Coroner Cartwright was summoned
by telephone and going to the scene
c.npaneled a jury which returned {
verdict OF death through snffocatior
