 Berryman is confident incendiarles are responsible for the blaze. He re fuses to give out the names of the mares burned or the insurance on the horses until he hears from Mir. flag gin. who .nas been communicated with in New York. Two of the mares are Garterless and Summit noted brood mares. It is believed the loss will cas- fly reach s1OO,000.
 It is reported on good authority that four days ago Bergman received a letter saying that all the horses on the farm would be poisoned.
 Night riders are not believed respon- sible. as Haggin authorized the state ment several weeks ago that he would not raise tobacco this year.
 Some of the most valuable mares among the nearly 200 that were quar- tered at Elmendorf were among those burned. The barn burned was some distance from that occupied by the worlds famous racer, the stallion Sal NotoEs
