THE OMAHA DAILY BEE DAY, AUGUST "SWIFT YOUNG SIDEWHEELER Online Fquals the World's Three-Year-0ld Paoine Record at Lyons, SUCCESSFUL" OPENING OF THE MEETING Muny Spoedy Horses Gathered at the Ex- collent Kite—The Results of Yestor= dny’'s Races—Goneral Sporting News Summary, Neb, Aug. 2.—[Special. Telegram to Tnr Brr.|—The summer meeting of the Xverett, Racing association of this place opened up today under the most favorable Auspices. - While the attendance was fair, it, ‘was nothing like what it should have by n considering the remarkable charactor of the mitractions, Without exaggoration, it was one of the most magnificent trotting cards over witnessed in Nebraska, if not in the whole west. A history of the track may not come amiss, Two weelks ago Andrew Everett & Son pur- chased the track and structures of the Lyons Driving association, which was floun- doring in deep water, and this 1s tho first meeting under the new regime. Mr. Tvorett is one of the oldest and best known farmers of all this lovely region. He is a Jurge land.ownor and & very wealthy man, extensively enguged in breeding fine trotting stock and Durham cattle. It was his pride, solely, for tho town of Isyons that inducec him to assume the responsibility of a race track, and it is an assured fact that he will maintain it in a style that will ere many campmgns @ve it a national roputation, The track, which 1s a finished kite, was only completed last June, but todoy it is the cqual of any in tho world, and is so pro- nounced by all horsemen who have visited it. Tt boasts of 175 fine box stalls, every one of which is occupied by an animsl of greater or lesser note, It is constructed so that the trenches running entirely around the course, both within and without the track, can be flooded with water from the Logan within twelve hours, which is of incalculable ben- ofit in keepiog 1t in perfect condition. The soil is tough and springy, calcvlated for the very higbest rato of speed and never becomes “iouppy." Good Day and Fine Races. The afternoon was warm, but just right for speed.

The result was the Iastest heat ever trotted or paced in & race by a 2-year-old, and equalling the world’s 9-year-old record, held by Manager and made at Dubuquo two years ago, 2:16%;. This per- ~formance also beal tnho state record, being the fastest milo ever puced or trotted in any race in Nobraska, It was truly a marvelous performance and the horsemen here are all Wwild over the feat. Another fact that must Do taken into consideration is that Online made his mark today, a month earlier in the season than Manager made his. He made the mile without a skip, the little feilow actually seeming to fatten in the speed. Tho mile is the talk of all the turfmen here, and will be a themie for discussion all over the land in aaother twenty-four hours. Online 1s o bay colt, 2-year-old the 17th of last June.

FORCED TO DEFEND HIS OWN POSITION Mis Report to the Emporor Carries Little Weight with It—Renewed Attacks by His Enemies and Their Direct Effects, [Copyrighted 1392 by James Gordon T Beruiy, Aug. 2—[New York Horald Cable—Special to Tue Bee,]—Von Caprivi bus made a bold attempt to destroy Bis- marck, to discredit Count Waldersee and re- tain imperial favor. Ho has, it would ap- pear, tailed signally, and now, instead of leading an attack on his chief foe, ke is on- waged in defending his own place, n task which fay prove too hard for bim. No sooner had the emperor returned from his Norwegian trip when the chancellor ro- newed his assau!t on Bismarck and von Wal- dersee, whom he now seems to hate as flercely as he dues tho ex-chancellor. Rocalling the success of his former offorts, he presented his master with another bundle of over 300 hostile newspaper articles, clipped from the foreign press, and including various extracts from the Herald. Thesc articles wero accompanied by an elab- orato report, which, 1t was hoped, would convinee the emveror of the malignity of the two men to whose inspiration the un- favorable criticisms of the papers wero attributed by the chancellor. Caprivi Was Very Insistents I understand Caprivi, who was laboring under considerable excitement at the time, took special pains to direct attention to the attacks which were more particularly aimed at the emperor and endeavored to persuade his majesty of the necessity of ¥igorous ac- tion. The emperor was advised by the chan- ceilor to have recvurse to legal measures and to stop the press war which has been raging for weeks past. Thanks to the fntervention of a mere tem per ate counselor, perhaps Count Philip Eulen- burg, his majesty aeclinea to taka Caprivi’s advice and was brought to understand that public opinion would not be with him if he went much further in his present nolicy. A report of General von Huhnke ou Walder see's case, in which the chief of the military council declared that the count's recent pub- lic utterances in the Herald and other papers were injurious to the discipline of- the army and dangerous to the goverwment, had no more success than the aetion of Caprivi. The emperor cartly exclaimed, “Die Ver- fluechte saenkerein,’ and refused to discuss the matter. Nor did all the determined efforts of von Lucanus, who was hurried up to support Caprivi and General von Hahnke, induce the young monarch to take a hasty decision, Meanwhile I am assured Waldersoce hus written a long letter to the emperor, ex- plaining and protesting against the insinua- tions of his adversaries. His majesty would soem to have been favorably impressed by this communication. The attempt of Capriv) to raise funds for a projected new paper have not so far, I hear, been crowned with much success. An agent of the chancelior has, it seems, ap- proached several Berlin bankers on the sub- ject, but they have put him off with evasive answeis and do not show much eagorness to o into'a schem? of which 'the chief objects are to support a not particularly stable min- istry and to:\age war on a great statesman like Bismarclc and his friends. "% Meanwhile the chancellor has, T uonder- stand, summoriod a German consul from a post he fills in a northern capitaland re- quested his assistance in reorganizing the reptilian press, The consul in question has had experience which fits him for the task. In Bismarck’s time he haa a similar work 1n- trusted to him. When Bismarck fell he turned his coat, like Pindter, and other gen- tlemen who now do the chancellor’s bidding, and made his peace with the new gods, He is a skiled journalist, and would, no doubt, not have more scruples about throwing mud at his ex-patron’ than the editor of the Norddeutscher Aligemeine Zeitung has been troubled with, One of the first results of the new pact has been the circulation of the curious tales with regard to Waldersee, which that gentleman himself contragicted a few days ago through the Herald, Bismarck’s party continues its assaults on Caprivi. The staiesman has beon particu- larly annoyed by the publication of an un- pleasant little pamphlet entitled *Kaon Ca- privi Blerben.” The pamphlets published here latterly do not prove much, but make ill feeling and put money in tne pookets of the publishers. MELTZER, COLUMBUS' MEMORY HONORED, Spain’s Celebration on the Anniversary of His Departure for Amerl Huerva, Spain, Aug. 2.—The Spanish vessels whick gathered to take part in the celebration of the four hundredth anniversary of the salling of Columbus proceeded for Palos at5o'clock this morming, the latter beiug the port from which Columbus satled August 8, 1492, The warships of otber for- eign nations followed the Spanish.

'ne statement of this morning that upon the arrival of the Spanish -squadron and the vessols of other nations at Palos, the Spanish minister of marine undall the Spanish and foreign delogates and‘niagal officers heard wass Palos, was incorrgot. The party men- toned and Mr. Snowden, the new American minister to Spain, procceded to Palos to attend the religinus services to be hola there, but after waiting in the church for an bour and a half and no priest appearing to conduct the sorviees, tho assemblage dis- persed, The incident has been much com- mented upon, but tho failure to hold the religious sorvices proposed seems to have been the result of @ misunderstanding.

Halr-Trigger Mouth of » Fireman Causes Much Trouble, The members of the KFire and Polico commission had another round with Captain Crowley of Ivo. 4 engine house yesterday, and as axesult of the round Cap- tain Crowley has been reduced to the ranks where, it he serves the city, it will be as an ordinary, eysryday fireman. Tho trouble with the captain was this: When Governor Boyd removed Commis- sfoners Smith, Gilbert and Hartman and ap- pointed Messrs. Sulelds, Deaver and Galla- Pr as their sucoessors, he threw up his cheered for the goveruor, and at the ne tme sald that the three men who wero removed could trace their origiu back to the dog family, especially oo the maternal side of their ancostral tree. In dub time this camo to the ears of the three commissioners, but they nursed their feelings and bided their time, After the court decided that Governor Boyd acted without the authority of law, they concluded Lo convince Captain Crowley that they rauked one uotch woove him. Car- rying out this idea, they suspended him just one week ago, but did uot pass upon his case until yesterday, About two weeks ago Ca Crowley suspended one of Lis men, Firemau Irvine.

Honoy Creek lake, now the scene of a dili- gent but so far frifltlass search for the body of Judge Clarksohj Would be Honey Cresk pond in a country whore there are lakes. It is a long rambling shoot of shallow water, lying between the'ppecipitous bluffs and the riyer, Tho oven water/{Alabout a nnle in length and a few hundrea feot wide, and on the north, south and west sides are acres of sub- merged bottom lands covered with a rank growih of rushes taller than a man’s head. The 1sland, as it 1s called, lies between the open water and the bottom. Judge Clarkson left the island and went to the north end of tho lake saying he had seen o good place to bathe tHers, Uncle Crandall Who has a cottage on theisland, two fishermoen who were out upon the lake in thair boat and the flagman whose box is opposite the island tell the samo story. The boat was found in that portion of the lake with his clothes care- fully folded just as a bather would be apt te leave them. Everything indicates that he went bathing just where he said he would and was seized with cramps and drowned and Major Clarkson and the others who have been searching the lake since Saturday have done the most of the work there. The body is not there. Kvery single foot of it has been tramped over by lines of men hold- ing bauds and toiling through the mud and weeds encumbering the vottom. There wero n at work all aay yesterday—members of the Dougias county var and other friends of the missing judwe, Dynamite cartridgos have been exploded over the deeper water of tho south end of the lake and it has been dragged without effect. There is a theorv that he may have lost his boat, and in trying to reach the shoro in tho gathering darkness waudered into the rushes and bocome entangled in some way, but this is nov vory probable, as he couid onsily have made himself heard. 1’eople living in the vicinity suggest foul play on the part of some one who had beon severely dealt with by the judge on tho bench, but the searchers scout the idea and insist'that the vody will be found, perhaps fast in the mud or entangled in the weeds. Yeosterday’s work combleted one end of the lake, and the men who did the wading are completely exhausted, and moro will be wanted todag to drag the south end of the lake and push out into the rushes, which are almost impenetrable, Last night the following telegram was re- ceived trom Honey Creok, sent by Major T. 8.
