COUNCIL BLUFFS DERBY DAY Opening of the Ranning Bession at Union Park Affords Good Sport. GREAT CROWDS WERE IN ATTENDANCE Pe: ple from Both Sides of the River Throng the Park and Back Threo at Cor avorites fortable Odds—On Other Tracks. BR IN THB JRY of the old course Park has session HI famous at Union a racing opened up such favorable aus- - pices as that under 7’ the management' of 'y Colonel L. 8. Hatch, Zwhich had its in- S auguration yesterday afternoon. It was the first day of a nine days’ meeting, and mauger the many drawbacks which have beset the colonel’s path, it was the most successful and most enthusiastic first day of any moeting held in this section of the country for years. The track was in ex- cellent condition and the racing superb, while the crowd in attendance was of such scharacter and dimensions as gladdened the heart of every lover of thoroughbred horse- flesh present. The day was an ideal one for racing, with the summer sky mottled with Dbig, lazy masses of vapor, and the breeze, coming in in fitful gusts from the west, of that re- freshing temperature so conducive to physical comfort and enjoyment in both man and beast. Good music was on hand, and all ‘round the conditions couldn’t have been better. It was Derby day, the first one ever held here, and the throng on hand to witness this premier event was greater than any the two cities ever turned out before. The gragsy lawn from the ldock to the open fleld was a perfect sea of gay turnouts, while the big grand stands were Jammed with handsome men and airily attired ladies The betting sheds, under the supervision of Heffner & Oter, were a confused mass of humanity, and at times men fairly climbed over each other for the privilege of la thelr money. It was a maddened, throng, all in pursuit of that phantom known as the “long green.” The wagering, too, was contagious, and the belles and beaux in stylish victorla, drag or landau were kept busy selecting winners and losers. In fact, the whole scene was the liveliest and most Interesting ever seen here on similar occasfons, and the prospects for a crush today could not be better. Everybody seems to have caught the racing fever on the spur of the moment, and while the bulk of terday's attendance came from the city over the river, it fs safe to say she will lose her identity in the masses that will pour across the big bridge from the metropolis this afternoon. JUDGES AND STARTERS. The official roster of the day was: Harry Loper of Wellington, Kan., probably without @ peer today as a trotting horse starter, as presiding judge; Otto Bluhm, assistant and official timer; J. W. Lay, clerk of the scales, and. Colonel Hatch, starter, with William Murray as assistant. The starting of Colonel Hatch was as pretty a piece of work as has been seen on any course this season. In the first two events the horsesgot away evenly on the first break; the Derby occupied but fifteen minutes in starting and the, two last races were off at pistol ghot start.. Therc was not a bad send off“gn the afternoon's card. i The first event, selling,’ four and one-haif furlongs, weight for age, was on promptly at 2:30, the schedule time. Seven ran, Tommy H, Buck Walker, Coleraine, Barkis, Lillie Lochiel, Jack Rodgers and Mollle Pennmy. Necus and Doley Brown, who were also named to start, remained in the stablo. The talent had this race down to a fine point, Mollie Penny being a hot favorite, and an easy winner. The gang got away on the first attempt, the little bay mare quickly reducing the con- test to a one-horse race, leading by a couple of good lengths all the way, with Lillle L chiel second and Jack Rodgers third. Time: 0:56. In the second, selling, six furlongs, I-de-ty, the favorite, was another casy conqueror. There was quite a weight of money on the shapely filly at 4 to 5, and her game chasc evoked tremendous cheers from both stands and sheds. She won all the way, finlshing well (n hand, a length and a half away from George Bullet, who was head and head with Doley Brown. Time: 1:17. Third upon the card was the event of under SERIES 4.

MAGNIPICENTLY ILLUSTRATED, o o e -t the day, the Councll Bluffs Derby, eleven- sixteenths, and cheers went up when the bugle's blast summoned the jumpers to the post, and again when the ~horses came through the quarter stretch. The abtentees ere Yankee Ban, Buck Walker and Mollie Penny, while those that lined up were Frolicksome Lass on the rail, Ed Connolly, Maple Leaf, Idlo Boy, BaHardine, Necus, Nehawka Girl and Champagne, ranging out in the order named In the betting Frol- jeksome Lass had the call, and that she Justified the faith of those who Invested in her was demonstrated fn the finish, HOW THE DERBY WAS WON. There was something of a wait before the bunch could be sent away. Starter Hatch patiently plugged away, however,” endeavor- ing to get the line abreast. Seattering breaks followed the first false start, but the excited crowd were not kept waiting s0 very long, for before they could hardly realize it the journey was begun, a spon- taneous cry, “they're off,” arising from the tip-toed masses. it was a beautiful or two jockles were caug notably ‘the purple-jacketed lardine and the cherry-hued lad astride of Idle Boy. Notwithstanding, the whole crowd seemed to move off together at the drop of che flag. The blue and white polka dots of the big chestnut gelding, Champagne, was the first to shoot out of the crowd and away, Nehawka Girl, Maple Leat and Necus heads apart, and the balance lapped save the un- Tucky pair, Ballardine and Idle Boy, who were straining nerve and fiber in the rear. The exultation of Champagne's friends—and they be legion—was but short lived, as the wiry shape of the slender sorrel favorite, in a Jifty almost, showed clear from all company. Her jock picked a place close to the rail, and came on like a ghost. Rounding with a rush Into the stretch Hd- mund Connolly moved up to second place but never became dangerous, while Nehawk Girl, pulling out of the ruck, put a cinch in_on third. The Lass was straightened out a bit on nearing home, as both Con- nolly and the Girl were striving savagely beneath lash and rowel. Both gained a trifle, but too late, and Mr. Hausen’s im- ported mare ran in with the laurels of the first Derby by a scant length. Time: 1:09%%. In the mile dash five ran. Asben, the favorite, broke in the lead, but was almost Immediately passed by Long Tom, who mad the running all the way, Belle M recond, fol- lowed by Sight Draft and John J I, the fa vorite taking a_tail hold. The finish was a rattling one and very close, the judges, how- ever, agreeing that Belle M came in first by a nose the best of Long Tom, Sight Draft third, Time: 1:45. The final event of the afternoon’s card was a selling race, four furlongs, in_which but four ran, Nellie Miller and Sam Jones being alternate favorites, the former quitting un- placed and Jones carting away third money. Lillie Lochiel, a long shot in the betting, won by a neck from Dick Tiger, after a tre- mendous finish, and amidst the wild huzzas of the excited crowd. Time: 0:50%.

Track » Sea of Mud and Card a Poor Ona but the Tulent Does Business. CINCINNATI, May 2i—The Latonia spring meeting opened ‘very auspielously before a crowd of 5,000 spectators under a falr sky. The track was deep with mud and full of puddles. Fast time was im- possible.

Before the first quarter was passed all four horses wer abreast, hardly a half length separating the lust horse from the leader. Passing the stand Pearl Song led the bunch by a neck, followed by Lazzarone, with his mouth wi open: unde a double wrap.

ST. PAUL, May 2.—The Maney trial was resumed today, Attorney Blair continuing his argument in favor of his motion to strike out all matters relating to the killing of Captain Hedberg, for which Lieutenant Maney has already been tried and ac- quitted. The sessions of the court are held from 11 to 3 o'clock and an hour taken for lunch, o that the speedy termination of the trial {s unlikely, At the close of Mr. Blair's argument Colo- nel Barr briefly spoke against the motion, maintaining that there was no law or right to prevent the present proceedings. After recess the court sat behind closed doors to consider the motion of the defendant’s at- torney. The motion of Attorney Blair was overruled and the trial ordered to proceed. Mr. Blair then asked an adjournment for the day, that he might have time to decide whether to proceed or to apply to the civil courts for a writ of prohibition against the continuance of the trial. The court, In ac- cordance with Mr. Bialr's request, ad- Jjourned for the day. Licatenant Maxw s Case, The general court martial convened by Brigadier General Brooke to try First Lieu- tenant Marcus Maxwell, company A, Sec- ond United States iInfantry, met_at Fort Omaha yesterday forenoon. When Mr. Max- well was called up for trial some days ago he asked for further time, in order {o pro- duce depositions from Chicago. Maxwell {s charged with conduct unbe- coming an officer and a gentleman and of being absent without leave; also of duplicat- ing his pay accounts. When the court convened yesterday the prosecution still had the floor, and as only one of the several depositions’ Maxwell had sent for had arrived, the court adjourned In the afternoon, subject to the call of the president, Colonél Biddle. Lieutenant Maxwell was transferred to Fort Omaha from the Fifteenth infantry at Fort Sheridan, T, and when called b there recently 'to téstify in the Maney mur- der trial forgot to return to his post. = At any rate the prosecution alleges that Max- well was absent without leave for half a month, and part of the time stopped at an Omaha hotel, where he was on a big drunk. It is supposed that it was during this spree that his pay accounts had been dupli- cated. Lieutenant Maxwell will, it is under- stood, set up as a defense that he was crazed by liquor and was not responsible for his actions during the time he was on this drunk. Lieutenant Van Liew fs acting as counsel for the accused. It is understood that when Maxwell was on his big spree he made several efforts to sober up and took great quantities of bromide and other drugs to put him in shape to report for duty. This combination of drugs and whisk the de- fense will allege, so unbalanced the mind of the defendant that he was not responsible for his actions, The trial will more. ———— OVERLAND ROUTE GOES IN. probably last a week or Joins the Emigrant Clearing House and Helps Make Rate Matters Lively.

GRAND CHIEF RAMSAY'S REPORT, His Review of the Work of O. R. T.s for the Past Year. DENVER, May 2i.—In the convention of railway telegraphers today Grand Chief Ramsay presented his annual report. He congratulated the order upon having ob- tained from rallroads during the past year thirty-four wage schedules. The membe ship of the order had decreased, but a crit- ical period In its history had been passed. There was now a revival of interest and the membership was likely to increase rap- idly., The grand chief reviewed in detail the grievances adjusted during the year. He reported that he arrested the charter of the Omaha division, No. 2, because of the publication by it of & papér called the Wasp, which belittled the grand officers and injured the order. This matter, he said, was now before the convention and it would have to pass judgment. The grand chief opposed - state “divisions’ of the order and favored state —organizations. He also favored federation. Changes in the by-laws agreed upon by the grand officers of vari- ous raflway organizations were recom- mended for passage. Mr. Ramsay told in full the story of his indictment and acquit- tal on a charge of having conspired to cut the wires of the Cedar Raplds rallroad, with which the order was having trouble, The conventlon oday, by a vote of 70 to decided to seatD.

ARMOR PLATE FRAUDS, dered Showing How Has Been the Swi WASHINGTON, May 24.—The congros sfonal investigat.on into frauds and irregular ities in naval armor plate began today, with open doors. Representative Dunphy stated his Information came from documents sent to the departments, from official papers and from the newspapers. Mr. Dunphy's state- ment detailed the early discovery of the ir- regularities and the Investigation made by the Navy department which led to the fining of the Carnegle company. Mr. Dunphy said armor plate had been tested at the Indlan Head proving grounds and had been found defective. It had then been retreated so as to overcome the defects, “Was this treatment Chairman Cummings. Mr. Dunphy answered in the affirmative. He said that one plate was picked out as a sample of a large number of plates, amounting to 348 tons. When this secret retreatment had been made it served to pass the sample plate, and that in turn passed the entire 348 tons of armor. Mr. Dunphy then spoke of blowholes in the armor of the monitor Terror. Experts had gone to the mavy yard and actually had located the blowholes which had been filled up to deceive the government. Similar blowRoles existed in the armor of many other ships but it was impossible for the experts to lo- cate the defects, as the ships were abroad at thelr stations, The first charges covered 700 defective plates. In conclusion Mr. Dunphy said: “My in- formation is the defective plates will be found on the Oregon, the Machins, the Castine, the Monadnock, the Cincinnati, the Terror, the New York and-the Monterey, and thai the exact position of the plates on each of these vessels can be located by the parties who made the complaint, and whote names the committee will be able to obtain from evi- dence on file in the office of the secretary of the navy. My objects in offering the original resolution of inquiry were, first, that the government might save perhaps mil- lions of dollars by the discovery of these great frauds, and, secondly, that it our cruisers and battleships had plastered on their sides and elsewhere armor plates s0 defective as to lessen their effective- ness the government upon discovering it might take proper steps to remedy this evil and provide for the safety of the ve sels.” He added the defective plates located by the government experts had been estimated to be worth from $700,000 to $1,000,000, and on these the committee had asked Captain Sampson of the naval bureau of ordnance to appear tomorrow.
