If the new associa- tion showed a fault it was in the slow manner in which the races were started and the long waits, With two races going, their heats dove- tailing together. there should be scarcely any | interval between heats. That there was con- | siderable delay is shown by the fact that it found impossible to finish the last race. oniy two heats being trot The races tod however, will be started promptly at 2 o'clock, and the heats will be started much more promptly. abig co } ‘THE STOCK EXHIBIT.

The great Kuight of Labor strike on the Central Hudson railroad was officially declared off yesterday by the executive board of Dis- trict Assembly 246, which ordered it on the Sthof last month. Late Tuesday night and early yesterday morning the executive board was in secret session cousidering this final move, and when it was decided upon notices were sent out to ail the iocal assembly leaders along the line directing them to cali the men Bow out together and announce the end of the strike. This was done. Treasurer Price was asked to what he at- tributed the failure of the strike. He said: “Wholly to the lack of finances, If we had had money we could have whipped the! but we did not have it. All the money we had in the district was spent in keeping and sending back non-union workmen who were brought here to take our places. The appeal for aid to the order generaliy aud the mouey sent us by the general board did not amount to anything. So far as Powderly and the general board are concerned the strike is stillon. They have not declared it off aud will not probably, bat we found the men anxious to have it declared off end we had nothing to gain by keeping up the ap- earance of a fight. so we ordered itdeciared off. Yes, it 18 true we were not weil organized aud in no condition financially or otherwise to carry on long fight, but the men stuck to it nobiy and they are not to blame, except that they and not Ed Lee are responsible for it, I know that at nearly a hundred meetings before the Btnke Ed Lee tried toget the men not to Strike. He even begged them not to, but the ould have it and in some places along the line were ready to throw him out of the window if he did not order it. Well, they have had the strike and had enough of it I do not kuow whether many of them will get back; if they do it may beat reduced wages, for alread, the cuse of the switchmen who left us and went back, I find they have been cut between €5 aad @7 per month or about what they bem ly got without the extras for Sunday work. ‘The Buffalo switchmen held no session ycs- terday, none of the committees being ready to report.

A New Hampshire Man Kills His Three Daughters and His Wife’s Lover. A terrible tragedy took placo last night at Portsmouth. N.H. A mob of several’ hundred people surrounded the tenement house No. 6 Middle street, where the bodies of three dead persons partially attest the cxtent of the crime. Fred H, J. Hein, aged forty-five, a cooper, has a family of three daughters, the eldest, Carrie, aged fifteen years, keeping house for him. Sev- eral months ago his wife left'him and it is r ported that she had been unfaithful to her marriage vow and that the girl Carrie had be- come wayward. Hein’s troubles preyed upon his mind until ne resolved to end them, and to not only remove the partial cause of his mis- fortune, but also move from temptation the three female members of his household. Two of them and the murderer himself lie dead in his home, while at the Cottage Hospital the third daughter lies dying with a bullet in her neck, and at his home on State street Charles W. Taylor, a well-known hardware merchant, whose name has been connected with that of the Hein woman, lies under the hands of the surgeons with two bullet -holes in bis back. Betore the discovery of Hein’s dead body ina closet at his house officers and citizens were scouring the city in search of him. Had he fallen into the hands of the mob there is not the slightest doubt that he would have been lynched. Charles W. Taylor, aged thirty-hve, a stove dealer on Market street, while entering his res- idence, corner of State and Union strects, at 7:20 last night, was rushed upon by the murderer, who tired two shots in rapid succession at Tay- lor, both of which took effect in the small of Taylor is still alive. but is very low. He stated that he does not know what prompted Hein to shoot him. The doctors are uuabie to state whether he will recover or not. Shortly before 8 o'clock peopie living in the vicinity of liciu's house were alarmed by hear- ing five pistol shots fired in rapid succes- sion. Daniel Casey aid Arthur Walker saw Maud, the thirteen-year-old daughter of He come running out of the house and fall on pavement, She cried: “Father has shot me. ‘A physician arrived and ordered the girl taken to the hospital, where she now lies in a critical condition. The first ehot tired entered the right side of her face at short range. As she started to run out of the house her father fired two nore shots at her. one taking effect under the shoulder, passing through her stomach, the other pass'ig through her hip. The lower part of Hein s house was the scene of the mur- derer’s most horrible work, ‘The kitchen was covered with blood froin one end to the other and everything was in great disorder, Just out- aide the back door of the house lay the two bodies, Carrie, the oldest girl, lay with her face covered with blood, the deadly bullet hav- ing entered the left side of the face, passing upward toward the brain, death having resulted instantly, Across her prostrate form lay Ber- tha, the youngest daughter, When found by Ofticer Quinn and Dr. Clark she was uncon- scious, but she expired ina few minutes, the bullet that caused her death ing ered her head just behind the left ea Skeritl Cof- fin arrived at Hein’s house at 8:15 after placing a guard about the house detailed men to search the city for the criminal. While this search was going on City Marshal Johan and a force of marshals arrived at the house and it was decided to closely examine the chambers, lest he should be in hiding there.

Over One Hundred Negroes Poisoned at a Church Barbecue. Details of the attempt by fiends unknown to poison several hundred colored persons ina hittle town in Dallas county, Ala., have been re- a ceived, Of one hundred who were affected eighteen are already said to have died and many others are so ill that there is little hope of their recovery. Beginning last Sunday week the colored folk of Collerine had been holding ‘al services in a little church in that place. Everything went well and it was de- cided that the close of so successful an event on Sunday should be properly celebrated and elaborate preparations for a big banquet were made with that end in view. When the serv- ices preceding the dinner were Legun there were over three hundred negroes present and, as the rude tables erected ina grove near by would not accommodate that number, it was tecided that one-half should eat at “first table” and the other half would remain in the church building holding services until they could be properly entertained at the second table. ‘There was plenty of food, but the principal thing was roast pork, two prize hogs having been’ barbecued for that purpose. ‘The first half had just about finished their meal and the other half had left the church when quite a commotion was caused by half a dozen persons becoming suddenly sic In jess than five minutes the ground was covered with groan- mg and rolling colored men, women and chil- dren, Soon all present were sick, or imag- ined that they were. the town has only two physicians, and the men were taken to Birmingham and the hun- d for trichi- Before all of those suffering the worst niasiss, could be taken to their homes two children died.

In point of fact, it may be truthfully said that it is without a@ equal in this respect any where in the world These averments are borne out by the figures low, which are compiled from the *worn weekly statements printed in the paper on cach Monday in the year, and condensed from the eworn tabular stat: ments showing the ‘en be! average daily circulation of the paper during the year 1889, published in Tux Srap on the 18th of January, 1899. Brietly stated, the points upon which the above claim is based are these: Yhat— 1. The Star has three times the circa- lation of any other paper in Washing-= ton! | 2 Whe Star's circulation im Washing- ton is double that of all the other daily papers publivhed in the city added te gether!! « Star bas a larger and fulicr \cirdBiation in the city where printed, 4a proportion to reading and purchay ing population, than any other news Paper im the world!!! 4. The Star has the targest regular and permanent home circulation of any two-cent afternoon paper im the United States!!! In support of these claims and to show the constantly increasing circulation of the papeg attention is invited to the figures following: PALLY CIRCULATION IW 1855-86-87-88-88 ISS5. ISSG.

(not householders), so that its whole circula position in modern journalism, the fallness of its home circulation, the extent to which | it is relied upon by members of the household, and particularly by the pure chasing portion of the community, are the marked characteristics of the paper, to which no ether daily jcurnal now published can furnish a paralicl. This is no idle boast on the part of the paper, It is a well established fact, demonstrated to | the full satisfaction of the sagacious and enter- prising business men of Washington, who seek and know where to find THE LARGEST RETURNS FROM THE MONEY PAID OUT FOR ADVERTISING. This is’ proven by the growth of Tue Sran’s advertising patronage. Nothing can more surely illustrate the esteem in which any article is beld by the !torit—day by day, week by week, month by month, and year by year,—in the face of ad- verse claims and pretentiouscompetition.

And this, it mast be remembered, consisted exclusively of the ordinary everyday business adv: ctisng, nothing in the way of tax sales, poll lists, ciection returns, etc., such as occasionally swell the business of political organs, being included im ite patrom age.
