Engiish Turf Event, ORBY WINS EPSOM DERBY; Noted American Said to Have Cleared | Up $250,000 on the Race, Including ! the Purse of $32,500 and the Added | Value of His Horse. London, June 6.—Richard Croker won the derby at Epsom and gained the ambition of his life, his colt, Orby, bred from an American dam and rid- den By an American jockey, “Johnny” Reiff, having beaten all the British cracks and captured the blue ribbon of the world’s turf by two lengths. Outside of Mr. Croker and his imme- diate entourage Orby had but few! friends and the betting indicated that the sporting prophets estimated his chances as heing slight. Aside from winning the blue ribbon of the turf Mr. Croker made a fortune. In the first place the stakes, 6,500 sovereigns, or $32,500, is no inconsid- erable sum/ and then he had the op- portunity of making any number of bets at 4 to 1 and, finally, the value of Orby has increased to such an extent that Mr. Croker may, if he so desires, sell him for an immense sum. Ofj course it is impossible to find out the financial results of Mr. Croker’s tri- were placed at $250,000. The betting was 100 to 9 against Orby and Wool Winder and 13 to 8 Onl Slieve Gallion. EXPECTS TODIE AN AMERICAN Croker Denies Intention of Becoming British Citizen. New York, June 6.—Dispatches from Tondon convey an interview with Richard Croker, who was in London to, see the derby run, in which the for- mer Tammany sleader says that he wants to visit New York next autumn but has not yet definitely decided to 0. “I always like,” Mr. Croker fis quoted as saying, “to see the boys of the old guard in New York city poli- tics. But the ranks are thinning. The other day when I ran over the names of the party of 200 who entertained me at dinner nine years ago I found that seventy-five were dead.” In speaking of the Tecent reports that he might give up his American citizenship and stand for parliament Mr. Croker said: “I have no intention of giving up my American citizenship. T expect to die an American.” ALLEGE[T COURT INTRIGUES Statement Deny¥hg Any Connection on Part of Kaiser. Berlin, June 6.—A semi-official state: ment has been issued regarding the court intrigues supposed to have been carried on by Prince Philip zu Eslen-|. burg, for a long time a favorite with the kaiser, and Count von Moltke. The statement in effect disclaims any con- nection on the part of the kaiser with the alleged intrigues. The statement says: “Our kaiser, as is well known, has a large circle of confidants whom he consults, as well as his ministers, but t would "e a great mistake to suppose that he is infinenced by them as if by a camarill None knowing the per- sonality and strong will of the kaiser would think he could be so infiu enced.” =2 The alleged intrigues, which have led to the resignations of the men whose names are involved, had for their purpdse, it is said, the displace- ment of Prince von Buelow and the promotion of Von Moltke to the chan- cellorship.

Bryan met Governor Hughes in the executive chamber, visited both houses of the assembly, made an address and talked for an hour informally with the news- paper correspondents. The governor and Mr Bryan had a brief chat and afterward each spoke in cordial terms of the other. In the assembly chamber Mr. Bryan spoke for more than half an hour, de- voting his time to what he deemed the duty of a representative elecied by the people. “The growing tendency,” said he, “Is to put the people more in control of their cwn form of government. This is manifested in the sentiment for direct primary nominations for the selection of public officials. “All over the country there Iy dis- tinet tendency to put the party man- agement in the hands of the voters and allow them to say who shall rep- resent them. If a representative is not in harmony with his constituents it is his duty to resign and give the party a chance to choose one who can represent them.” GREAT FOREST FIRES.

The action, if brought, will be under the state law and in the name of the own- ers of the places wrecked. It is un- derstood the Japanese will be perfect- ly satisfied with a judicial determina- tion of the case. Result of Labor Dispute. San Francisco, Juné 6.—United States District Attorney Robert T. Devlin has examined two more Japa- nese regarding the trouble that led to the wrecking of a restaurant on Fol- som street.
