About 500 of these were Parks's supporters, sworn to stick to him to the end. The remainder were well-known to be opposed to the walking delegate, and Parks was in- formed of the word that had gone down the line to “do” him, But he is not a man to go down with- out a fight and as soon as the room in which the ballot box was set up had been opened to admit voters he entered and took the seat whence the police ged him a few minutes later. go me.” sald Parks to the five judges’ 0. me, tks to the five judges— ‘Thomas Dodge, James ess Wentfield, John Snyder and P. “You're trying to Kill me off, but I'll see that you don't do it through this ballot box “You right in here,” said ike, “and y ‘out or "I'll have you thrown out.

Many of them were union men who, while not liking Parks nor hia methods, went to him out of sympathy and who wanted at the same time to utter “a protest against the part the police were taking in their affairs. The commotion caused by Parks’ harangue caused Capt. Tighe fo sen his reserves into the street with "move- on™ orders, for he feared that the walk- ing delegate might so excite the men as to cause them to enter the hall where the election was being held and cause serious trouble.

CHICAGO, June 20.—Never before hus there gathered in the Washington Park inclosure such a crowd as that which congregated to-day to witness the American Derby. Spacious as are the great stands, the wide lawns, the club-house and the infield, it did appear that the limit of attendance had been reached. Until the count of tickets had been made the exact attendanc cannot be told, but it is safe to say that 65,000 persons passed the turnstiles. 4 The day opened raw and cloudy, but as the morning wore on the clouds disappeared, the sun came out and the air grew warm and pleasant. By 11 oclock the tide had set in for Washington Park and before 1 oclock the grand stand was packed. It has been supposed that the turn-out of fashion and wealth that graced the great World's Fair in 1893 would never be equalled at Washing ton Patk, but those who saw the cvyent ten years ago are certain that to= day's show of gowns and beauty and lavish display far surpasses it Kast- ern visitors say that on nonc of the New York track can be found at the big events such a gorgeous array of magnificent vehicles, charmingly dressed women and general brightness. Michigan avenue from noon was given over to the parade of tally-hoes and other up-to-date turn-outs bound for Washington Park. The broag Brooklyn’s Double-Header and the Giants-Chicago Contest Prevented by Rain. Rain caused the postponement of the ball games scheduled at the Polo Grounds and Washington Park in Brooklyn. The gates were opened at both grounds and thousands of persons made the trip in the hopes of seeing @ game. In Brooklyn an extra attraction was offered in as much as the Brook- lyns and the St. Louls team were scheduled to play two games. At the Polo Grounds the Giants' were to meet hk JOes. re the crowd had gathered it was decided in both instances that the games could not be played, and the rooters, sorely disappoints fled out in phe Grazing rain that had been com! ng down at intervals the greater part o! the asyiroit, where the Invaders were to play, the weather Is nearly a& id it is here gad the Ce perIe game d likely to cal off too. ae ontay, at Washington Park, the Trolley Dodgera and the Cardinals will two games, providing the weather play And che contin 2f the grodnds perm] poulevards of the couth side were packed with vehicles on the way to the track.

From there they were compelled to walk to the grounds, * ig: BIG STREAM OF VEHICLES. Tally-hoes and other vehicles were accommodmated in the in-field, They came through the carriage gate in a continuous stream, swung around the club-house and across the track, and from there’ into the soft green of the enclosure. Te arrangements for handling the vehicle patronage was excellent. Victorias and other iow carriages were given positions along the rafl, Back of them were lined the coaches. Jolly crowds of wealthy men and women with sporting blood in their veins spent the time before the races were called in eating and drinking on the grass behind the coaches, When the first race was called the grand-stand was reminiscent of the appearance of a can of sardines. Progress was almost impossible, The boxes were jammed with notables, while the club-hoyse was almost as con- gested as the grand-stand. But the crowd was good-natured, as all race- track crowds are, and inconvenience counted for nothing against the oppor+ tunity of seeing the Derby run. , Down in the betting-ring the scene was approximate to the result of putting the inmates of one hundred mad-houses into & restricted sp ‘The bookmakers were lined up on both, sides so close together that it ) all but tmpossible to squeeze between the stands, And all the rest of, space was taken up by a perspiring mob fighting and scrambling ‘ glance at the odds and the chance to risk a bet.
