HUBINGER'S GREAT
TROTTER DEAD
CONTINUED from First Page.D

Continued from First Page.)
with DR.. Atwood as a result of which
it was definitely learned that the
horse had been poisoned and that
death had been due to muriatic acid
administered to it in quantities large
enough to kill it instantly.
DR.. Atwood was asked last night
of the horse and he said that he was
positive that some one with malicious
intentions had sneaked into his barn
through the driveway that leads to
Elm street in the rear and administer
ed the poison when nobody was
about
When asked If he had any suspi-
cions he said that he had and strong
ones. He would not, however, say
who he suspected of the act. further
than to say that he had more than
strong reasons to believe that 1t had
been the result of professional jeal-
ousy, because he had taken the horse
when it was almost dead, a mere
shadow of its former self, and had
brought about such phenomenal re-
suits with the silver tube which he
inserted in It's throat.
You may rest assured" said Dr.
Atwood, that both my attorneys and
/ will not rest until we have found the
culprit and have brought him to jus
tice and landed him in states prison.
1t Is a dastardly crime. A man who
will hire a man to do a thing like
that, murder one of the prides of the
grand circuit, and the winner of in
Vulnerable races, or man who will
do such thing for money will do
anything He would be willing to
squirt acid in your eyes or mine to
kill us, to set fire to our houses, or
crime. and there will not be lover of
horse flesh or a follower Of the track
but will have his heartstrings touched
by the recital of this business. I
know who the man is who is response
bile. II was not so long ago that he
was known to say that he wished he
could wake up somemorning and read
my obituary and of the death of that
horse, Nutbearer.
The body of the horse was shipped
to the Crosby Tristan Fur company in
Rochester. N. Y. This company will
mount the hide of Nutbearer true to
life and this reminder of the great
gelding will be kept by Mr.. Hubinger.
The bones will be sent to a New York
concern which will mount them and
they will be sent to the Cornell Veter-
marian college. where they will be
shown as an example of a horse per-
fectly sound in foot and limbs. DR.
Atwood did not say what would be-
come Of the tube, which was made
with two inside sections to enable
them to be taken out successfully and
cleaned. Nutbearer was valued al
$4,000 at the time of his death
though 1t Is doubtful IL Mr.. Hubinger
would have sold him at any price.
