COLUMBUS, O., Aug. 4—Rain again interfered with the races at the Columbus Driving Park to-day. After the 2:10 trot had been finis..ed and four heats trotted in the 2:14 class a thunderstorm came up, and before the rain had ceased the track was soaked. It was hoped, however, that the racing mignt be resumed, and the crowe was held until very late, when it became evident that the horses could not start, and the races were postponed until to-morrow. There were four events on the card to- day, including the 2:10 trot postponed from Thursday. This was the first started, and it proved a surprise to the talent, Tommy Britton winning in straight heats without being urged. Elloree was favorite in the betting on the strength .of her owing at Cleveland, but she was not a { or In the race. Cresceus, although not fast enough to press Tommy Britton, beat Elloree out for second money easily. Four heats were trotted in the 2:14 class. There were ten starters in the race, but the contest lay between Surpola, Success and Charley Herr. Surpola was the fa- vorite, but Success sold almost equally well in the pools, and Charley Herr had many backers. Surpola trotted the first heat without a _break and won easily by two lengths. The gray mare acted badly in every heat after that. In the second heat Surpola went off her feet after pa ing three-quarters, and was_beaien out by both Charley Herr and Success. In the third heat the mare broke at the half and fell back so far that she could not fill the gap between the leaders, and was beaten out by the same horses in re- verse order, Success taking the heat. In the fourth heat Curry, who had driven Sur- pola, gave way to Hutchings, but the change didn’t prove a fortunate one. Com- ing down the homestretch Surpola and Success were neck and neck when the former broke and Hutchings allowed the mare to run. She found her gait before the wire was reached, however, and won out by half a length, but was set back to second place, the heat being given to Success. This race and the 2:21 pace and the trot were postponed to to-morrow. Results: 2.10 trot, purse §2000—Tommy Britton won in straight heats. Time, ~2:08%, 2:08%, 2:08%.

LONDON, Aug. 5.—The Johannes- | burg correspondent of the Times, who | furnishes evidence of the attempt of | the Transvaal Government agents in| the recent conspiracy case to manufac- ture testimony implicating the British Government and the South African | League, says: President Kruger's son, who is the | head of the Secret Service Department, | tried to induce one of the witnesses for the prosecution to do his utmost to| prove the case to be one of conspiracy on the part of the British Government, as that would strengthen Mr. Kruger’'s hands. This was on the very eve of | the Bloemfontein conference. The Berlin correspondent of the Daily Mail says: I learn that the real rea- son why Emperor Willlam did not go to Cowes was the acute state of the Transvaal question. The letter deliv- ered yesterday to the Queen at Os- borne House by Lieutenant Freiherr von -Strombeck explains thfs, repeats the Emperor’s regrets and contains a promise to visit her Majesty during the autumn.

SAN RAFAEL, Aug. 4—The publication of Mrs. J. P. Roberts’ story in regard to the alleged bribing of jurors:at the trial of Joseph Harvey on a charge of conduct- | ing a banking game in his poolroom at | Sausalito has produced consternation | among gambling cohorts. This uneasiness was increased to-day when 1t was learned that if Sherift Taylor and District Attor- ney Mclsaac succeeded in obtaining| enough evidence to indict the principals to the affair Judge Angellotti will not wait until the Grand Jury holds its regular session next October but will call that body together at once. The part ascribed to R. M. Donne in the | affair is the only material element of Mrs. | Roberts’ tale discredited. It is not be- | lieved the woman is misrepresenting the | facts as stated to her, but that her hus- band erred either intentionally or other- wise. Donne is a prominent merchant of | the community and has always enjoyed an excellent reputation for honesty and integrity. The interview published in a | morning paper in which he is said to have admitted that Roberts approached him on a ferrvboat and derhanded his share of the “swag’ Is vigorously denied by Donne. “T told the representative of this pape what I have told the others,” said Donne to-day. I explained to him that I did not know whether or not money had been expended in securing an acquittal, but that if it was I had nothing to do with it. I said furthermore that I had never seen Roberts since the jury acquitted Harvey to talk with him alone.
