... Cpinmuns -was Culled to order to-day the
■ ' Queen's speech was read.
■ The speech declares that the relations of
i her Majesty's Government with the various
. foreign Powers are unchanged, and con
tinues: : "The general condition of Ireland
■ •has sensibly improved under the salutary
■ legislation which you have applied to it;
■ but I have learned, with deep regret, that a
' serious deficiency in the potato crop In cer
,: tain parts threatens a recurrence of tho;e
-periods of severe distress to which the pop
: illation of the western counties is peculiarly
. exposed by the industrial and economic con
. ditions under which they live. I trust the
. measures of my Government may mitigate
.-■ the immediate evil and diminish the proba-
b ility of its returning. It appears to be de
• sirable for the increase of contentment and
, ' diminution of political disturbances
■throughout Ireland to take measures for
•: augmenting the number of owners engaged
■ in the actual cultivation of the land. A
" measure having this object in view will be
' laid before you.
■ ; .'.'Your attention will be Invited to the ex
"■; pedieucy of alleviating the burden which
• the law of compulsory education has, within
recent years, imposed upon the poorer por
• tions at the people. '
.." "■ "In casa time for further legislation
• should be found, I have directed the prepar
ation of bills for the enactment of a reform
in the system of county government of Ire
land, analagou; to that put in operation for
.■' Great Britain ; for the establishment of dis
.' trict councils; for the extension of facili
/. ties for purchasing small parcels of land in
■ . Great Britain; fur emending the law in re
■ ■ spect to the compensation payable by em
ployers in case of injury to persons in their
employment; for consolidating aud amend
" ing the laws relating to public health for
• the appointment of public trustees, an i for
' Increasing the security of friendly societies
. . and savings banks."
■ There was a full attend at the open
ing of the session. Paraell was present and
••'. took the seat he usually occupies, but soon
' retired to the lobby.
. When the Deputy Speaker read letters an
nouncing the conviction of Dillon and
. ' O'Brien, Parnell reappeared, and from the
extreme end of the benches pushed his way
forward to a seat on the third bench.
Shortly, after Parnell reappeared, Glad
stone entered the House and was greeted
' with loud cheers.
• After the rending of the Queen's speech
Balfour gave notice that he would Introduce
four bills relating to Ireland.
Gird tone gave notice of the introduction
of a bill to remove the disability which pru
• vents Catholics from occupying the offices
of Lord Chancellor of Eujjlaad and Lord
.■; . Lieutenant of Ireland.
•'• . Sluney moved a resolution simply thank
ing the Queen for her address.
Gladstone,. referring to Smith's announce
ment of the. Government's intention to take
. . up the whole time of the House until the
■ Government bills are read a second time,
.. said the Government had avoided reference
'. • to important matters. Was the Commons
to understand there was nothing in the dif
.' ferences with the. United States regarding
Behiing Sea? Ought the recent persecu
.'. tions 'in the Turkish Empire to be treated
' . with silence? Had the relations of the Gov
: ernment toward the Emm relief expedition
. been such as to make it the duty o! the Min
isters ;to ascertain the truth of the state
ments that has compromised the reputation
\ <)J the .English people for humanity? refer
■'■ ring to Ireland, he said it was unfortunate the
Government was not content with stating
■ the improved condition of the country, but
: thought it necessary to coinuiiment them
selves about the improvement. The mem
bers' of the opposition were bound to ex
' ■ press their dissent ? The list of measures in
. the speech placed the Government in no re
sponsible position. : Was the House to wait
- indefinitely to learn how they intended to
.••■ deal .'with the greatest question?
• • .. Smith, replying, declared the Government
bad the strongest hopes that the Behriog
■•■ Sea negotiation would be successful. The
;. ' Government took what measures wera prac
■. ticable in regard to the sufferings of perse
,. cuted peoplo of Turkey. The Government
had no ii,'i.'i to institute an inquiry into the
. . African matter, as the expedition was purely
-Voluntary. Ample measures would be
- taken to meet the distress in Ireland.
After a few minor members had spoken
■ the address was agreed to. This is the first
time in fifteen years Unit the address has
• been agreed to on the day of the opening of
'.Parliament. The sudden ending is ex
plained by the fact that Gladstone Intimated
that lie would give no countenance to any
amendment to the address if I'ariieli was re
.. elected to the leadership. . ' :
THE LORDS.
Premier Salisbury's Speech at the Opening of
■ . the Urp?r Host*.
London, Nov. —In the House of Lords
to-night Premier .Salisbury, in his address,
said be would not say that. England's trade
' with Africa and the Colonies would imme
. diately compensate her for the loss caused
by the new American tariff, hut it would be
. a motive for preventing the territories in
Africa from falling into the hands of nations
' ■ exercising prohibition trade. It was lament
. ably true, that th« Colonies did not follow
the motherland in free trade, yet it was a
fact tli it tin. trade of Australia increased
fatter than elsewhere.
Replying to queries, he said he could not
discuss the recent financial crisis as the ne
' . initiations in progress were of a confidential
character. Regarding the troubles in Tip
perary, he said the league combination then*
aimed to defraud, oppress and coerce honest
traders. Ihe task of restoring prosperity to
'- Ireland would be tiopelrss unless such com
■ binations were destroyed. Tho Government
• was firmly pursuing tlie object of increasing
She number of persons interested in land in
- Ireland, thus creating a moral and political
' "force which would frustrate the effects of
. political agitations.

THE UOHE HULERS.
' P&rsa'l UainimcuV.y Ki-E!ected Leader of
the Party.
• London, Nov. 23.— At a meeting of the
. Irish Hume Rule members of Parliament
' held to-day, before the opening of the ses7
•ion of the Commons, Parnell was present.
He was loudly cheered as he entered the
. room. A motion was made that Parnell be
re-elected Chairman of the IrUh Parlia
mentary party, and it was carried unani
mously. It was announced that Parnell will
retain the leadership at the express desire
of his followers.
Farnell made an address to the meeting.
' In which he thanked his followers for his
re-election. He said' it was for the Irish
' . members to decide whether he should lead.
' If their decision bad been negative, or if
there had been any diversity' of opinion, he
.would cheerfully have withdrawn from
public lire. Nothing but a conviction that
. : his colleagues desired to utilize his services
• in their common cause induced him to re
' sume the position in which his altered cir
■ ' cumstances exposed him and them to the at
.- ticks of their opponents.

At the reQuekt of Gladstone, Mm ley lias
THE MORNING CALL.
communicated to Parnell a letter written
lust Monday to Morley by Gladstone, la it
Mr. Gladstone says: "After using all the
means of observation and reflection in my
power I ' bare arrived at the con
clusion that, notwithstanding the splen
did services rendered by Paruell to
bis country, Ills continuance at the
present moment In the leadership would
be productive of consequences disastrous in
the hishest degree to the cause of Ireland."
Gladstone adds further, as the expansion of
his conclusions, that I'arnell's continuance
as leader wuuld not only place the many
friends of the Irish cause in a position of
great embarrassment, but would render his
(Gladstone.-) retention of the leadership of
the Liberal pnrty, based ng it lias bern
mainly uron the prosecution of the Irish
cause, almost a nullity. These views, lie
says, lie had expressed personally to Mc-
Carthy, and ho begged McCarthy to regard
them as confidential if he found Parnell
contemplated spontaneous action,; but he
also bogged that McCarthy would make
known to the Irish party at to-day's meeting
that such was his conclusions, if ho shouU
find Parnell had not in contemplation any
step of the nature Indicated. Ha wrote to
Morley in case McCarthy should be unable
to .communicate with Parnell. in con
clusion Gladstone says: "I have thought
it best to put this in term's simple and
direct, much as I should have liked to
alleviate the personal nature of the situ
ation as respects the manner of conveying
what my public duty has male it an obli
gation to say." ~
It is learned that Gladstone had an inter
view with Paruell before the publication of
the letter, and urged him to retire. The
letter caused intense excitement in the lob
bies.
i Gladstone is annoyed because Parnell. at
to-day's meeting, did not mention his inter
view with Morley, sird resents keenly Par
nell's disregard of his piotest. Conserva
titts .".mi Unionists gleefully chat over the
split in the opposition. The Liberal news
papers in many instances comment in the
strongest terms upon PamelJ'g flouting
Gladstone, aud ins contempt for bis Liberal
allies. ■ ■
A meeting of Nationalists was held to
night, but nothing was done, and another
meeting is arranged for to-morrow.' Several
Liberal candidates announced their with
drawal from the campaign, foreseeing de
feat. The Parnellites opeuly assert that
they will slick by I'arnell, even if tiny de
lay home rule fifteen years.
AH the papers comment freely on the
Parnell matter. The Daily News says it
is with the deepest regret that it places to
gether, probably for the last time, tile names
of Gladstone and l'arnel). The latter will
find Englishmen are nut to be persuaded
out of their convictions.
The News also says Parnell has treated
the illustrious Englishman with a lament
able, want of courtesy. Whatever happens
to the Irish leader the Liberal party must
be saved.
The Standard says, even if Parnell de
cides to temporize, the stins will not b? re
moved from the minds of English home
rulers. ■
The Post says Parnpll's action threatens
to dissolve the Home-rule Alliance more
suddenly than it was formed.
The Times makes a savage attack upon
Gladstone, saying nothing can conceal the
fact th it It rests entirely with the chief of
a criminal conspiracy to close the career of
the quondam Liberal leader with a most ig
nomuiQtis fiasco. It says no parallel can be
found for sterday's political by-play or
the position in which it leaves the parties.
The Chronicle says: '•When we call to
mind all that Gladstone has borne lor Par
nell we can find no parallel for the baseness
of Parnell's requital."
The Chronicle eulogizes Davitt's inde
pendence.
Dublin, Nov. 25.— The Freeman's Jour
nal says the retort that Pnrrie.ll is to retire
is absolutely without foundation.
The Express states that Gladstone hinted
to Parnell it would be better for the Irish
cause if he would not attend the coining ses
sion of Parliament.
Paruell's friends say they will not allow
him to absent himself.

man-of-war which was deputed to make a
systematic examination of the bed of the
Pacific Ocean with the object of discovering
the best route for a cable from Canada
to Australia. The deepest sounding obtained
foath of the equator was 4530 fathoms.

ascertain their suitability fur a telegraph
cable. The British flag has been hoisted on
all the islands visited which are not under
the protection of other powers.
LABOR NEWS.
Journeymen Barbers Will Ask
the Bosses to Resign.
When the barbers organized to push the 8
o'clock cli sing movement, they received into
fellowship as honorary members quite a
number of the bosses. Now that they have

legislative fund, and $10 each to the molJers
and core-makers. The league now proposes

a Cheyenne Indian fiom the Ch-yeuum and
Arapahoe Reservation, I. T., says the Mes
siah craze has taken hold of the Indians
aii" l they are arming and becoming very
restless. A Sioux, acting as a missionary,
has come from the North to teach tlm new
religion to the southern tribes. He preaches
to them that an y one who does not believe
in the new religion will be destroyed, and so
works upon the imaginations of these people
that they fall prostrate to the ground, and
while lying there the missionary pretends
to cast some spell on them, and when they
arise they declare they have seen the new
Christ, and at once join in the ghost dam-e.
The new religion has also spread to too
Kiowus, Comanrhcs and Apaches..

Standing Hock special says two scouts re
turned to-day to Fort Vutes from ii visit to
Sitting Hull « camp. They found the chief
and his adherents very ugly. He told them

take him, but he had his runners out and un
tlKj nrst news of the soldiers he and his peo
ple would leave. They hava abandoned the
white men's houses, said he, and will not
return to them or the agency. The supposi
tion here is if Sitting Bull hears of serious
trouble ut Pine Midge, or if the military at
tempt to take him, fits and his followers will
make at once for the lower agencies, there
by declaring war.

" RIGOLETTO."
Verdi's Opera Given to a Crowded
House ut the Orplienm.
To say the attendance List evening was
large at the C. D. Hess Opera Companj's
performance of this opera will not convey
an idea of the crush of auditors. The
auditorium was packed In every part, and
perhars one-third as many persous as ob
tained admUsiuii were tun., i away Jrom
the doors. Tne situation was one that de
lighted the management, and at the same
time, prevented the singers being heard
at their very best. Like some speakers
who have more ideas than words, the au
ditorium, for the, vocalists, was "too full for
utterance." Nevertheless, we had an ex
cellent rendering of the music, and the
leading singeis acquitted themselves in all
the pretentious numbers of the opera in a
manner to draw repiated plaudits from the.
delighted hearers, and to prove, also, that
they are blessed with yuang, fresh nu.l
vigorous voices, winch even the obstacles
that they had to face, an immense mass of
people in a place where the acoustics ar«
none of the best, couid not overcome.
MISS FIIANCESCA OUTHKIE,
The Gilda of the distribution, distinguished
herself in all the notable scenes. First in
the interview with her lather at the pension
of Giovanna, where she sings tho " Quanto
Dolor" and " Quanto AiTetto," and in a sub
sequent scene when tnc Duke, her unknown
lover, has left her, iv singing the " Caro
Nome" soliloquy. In these instances she
gay) 119 several delicious examples uf colora
tura. The succeeding act was reiiiHrtable
fnr some vivid dramatic action between
Gilda uinl her father, aud fpr tne duet com
mencing "Si Vendetta, Treniendu Ven
detta." Her strong, clear and well-balanced
voice was also heard to great advantage in
the famous quartet, " Bulla Figlia Dell
Amore," but, in a general way, we have
heard this cuncerted number much better
rendered.
AS TIIK DUKE,
Sianor Albert Gnille exerted himself to
the utmost, and knowing the fuiidness of an
American audience f r the high C, or the B
Hat, as the case in ly bo — Htiyihini!, In fact,
like it vocal lilt— flirted among the higher
notes iv the upper register of his voice in so
reckless a manner that, besides impairing
tlii integrity ot tin; number itself in seeking
fur the effect, he. may not have much voice
left by and by if he continues the practice.
Ho mused the audience to enthusiasm
though, in his opening with "Quests O
Queila," and also in tho old lop-loUieal
stand-by "La Donna c Mobile," for which
lie received twn encores, and although ho
evidently husbanded himself for the finish
we must say he carried the aria with a

much better tnan his action. The jester is,
for dramatic effect, supposed to be a lameter;
but Mr. Mertens erred in increasing the
difficulty of the part by taking on too much
lameness. He could not sustain it in many
of the exciting passages nf his role. When

on the Election.
No Reason for the Republicans to Be

Local Issues Had More to Do With the

Other National Legislation.
Ercclal to The Mobnino Caii«
New Yonrc, Nov. 25. — Senator Hoar hns
issued an address to the Republican? of
JUas^achnsetts, on tho recent election, lie
sees in the remit no reason far despondency
«r discouragement, dwelling particularly
upon the tariff bill. He points out that no
measure was ever more carefully considered
before being enacted, anl declares that it is
based upon a priucii>l« to which the Ameri
can pcoplo aro unalterably attached. He
holds that the brief discussion of tho
measure before the p-op!o and the mis
representations made regarding its effects
hiid much to do with the voting.
In a talk with the Tribune's Washington
correspondent Senator Edmunds says that
while the Republicans have been bastina
ioed upon both feet there Is no reason-to be
diacounued concerning the future of the
party or the result of the next Presidential
election, lie believes a complication of
local issues, especially objoctionable candi
dates, de.ided the refill of the elections
rather tha,n the tariff or any other great
question.
He says: "Ton will find there has been no
change In the sentiment of the people.
There has been a falling off of the Kepubli
can vote through dissatisfaction with local
candidates, but there has not been 1 per
ernt change in the actual votes cast for thu
Democrats."

A Prospect of Bat Little Work Being S:ne
B fore tha Holidays
Washington, Nov. 2j. — Major McKinley
arrived this morning. Ue was asked by the
California Associated Press correspondent
about the work of Congress. "Then; will
be the usual appropriating hills, and the
Apportionment Bill will be one of the most
important measures we will have In the
House. Tho Circuit Court Bill ougiit to re
ceive our early attention, and pooaibly the
Subsidy Bill."
"Will anything be done with the tariff?"
"No, sir. The uew law must have time to
show its effect in practical operation, I
know of no Kepublican Representative who
desiies to modify or change it. Truth and
tune are on our side."
The arrival of members of th« two
Houses of Congress has been so few that
there may be less than a quorum when Con
icress meets oh Monday. The prospects are
that very little business will be transacted
before the holidays.

ground would seem cleared for t!i« estab

diflieulties west of Chicago have not con
eernod that traffic solely or chiefly, and it Is
by no means clear as yet whether thosn dif
ficulties have been placed in the way of
speedy settlement by the events which
have occurred. Perhaps they may havd
been, but it will do no barm to wait aud see.
ADAMS' KETIRKMENT.
Dow-Joaes say it is declared that Gould
has entered the market and begun the cam
paign with the largest amount of cash ev«r
gathered together outside of the Govern
ment coffers. He has accumulated nn
enormous amount of cheap stock*, but has
not relinquished his hold upou the financial
situation. Save Adams the Union Pacific is
a unit with Gould. Adams has long wished
to retire ftom his present position, and it is
not, however, known but that hin views may
find some definite expression Wednesday at
the meeting of the Union Pacific Board,
when, he retires to be succeeded by Gould as
Director. There will be some other Grangers.
Singularly enough Gould proposes no an
tagonism to the Uuion Pacific. The North
west alliance is popularly thought to be the
bone of contention.

P.culiariiies of ths Voten Who Scratoh— The
Seven S eepers Outdone— A Cattlc
mv's Cimpiaint.
Judge John J. de Haven, one of the newly
elected Associa'e Justices, sat in the rotunda
of the Grand Hotel last nuht and discussed
the outcome of the recent election.
"Ingoing over the returns," lie said, "I
was particularly struck with the peculiari
ties of voters in scratching their tickets. In
Bumboldt County my majority, for in
stance, was 1170, but it all the votes that
were cast for me had been counted it would
have been a little more than 1300. In 'many
instances Judge Beatty's name had been
erased and mine substituted, and a number
of voles were cast for me for Superior
Judge. On two or three ballots my name
bad been inserted for Governor. In all
there were nearly 140 voters who thus con
jured with my Dome. Now, again, Judge
Barnaul and Mr. Geary were opposing can
didates for Congress, both to fill my unex
pired term and for the one succeeding. It
would seem that the votes in both instances
should be about equal, and yet for the short
term Judge Barham'i vole was considerably
larger than for the regular term. There
was evidently no reason for It but mere
eccentricity on the part of the voters."
. ■WOMEN WHO GET 31IAVED. ,
"A barber who devotes himself exclu
sively to the shaving of ■women," said O.
A. aring to a Cam. reporter, " may seem
like an oddity, and yet there is such a man,
with an ofli cc on Montgomery street lie
has his regular customers scattered about
the city, principally, of course, among the
wealthy class of people, and he makes his
rounds every day, just as a physician would,
and charging each one dollar a visit. The
business, as yon may imagine, is a very lu
crative one, and he has grown rich. But he
«till sticks to it day after day. iam told,
however, that his business is beginning to
fall away with the invention -of new cos
metics that remove the hair without tlu> aid
of the razor, and finally destroy it entirely."
THE JI'KiXLKY BILL. . '
John T. Bonestell has just returned home
from a trip to Europe, having spent several
months on tho Continent, mainly at Paris
and Berlin. Hp states that the feeling ex
cited among the business men of France and
Germany by the operation of the McKinley
bill is very strong, and the best evidence of
its advantage to the United States is to be
found in the fact that tin- exports to this
country have fallen oil' in sin enormous de
gree. Manufacturers of goods used in largo
quantities by Americans are 'alarmed, and
in many instances are actually contemplat
ing the possibility of being forced out of
business or else compelled to remove their
factories to our shores.
A CATTLEMAN'S COMPLAINT.
"There lias been a disastrous falling off
in the last few years of the profits of stock
raising," said William T. Hunter, a cattle
man of Wyoming, who is spending a few
days at trie Palace Hotel. "It Is almost en
tirely due to the operations of the 'Big
Four,' as it is commonly known, orinottier
words the Armour combine. They have
gradually reached out until they now con
trol the entire cattle business east of the
Bocky Mountains nnd are now able to dictate
their own terms to both lmwrs and sellers.
Steers that we got $25 and 830 each for two
or three years ago now bring Si- and $15,
and there is no escape from it. They send
buyers llirounh the West and we are com
pelled to take what they choose to offer.
Some of the stock-raisers tried the experi
ment of shipping to Chicago, but funnel
when thi'ir stock reached that city that all
the commission-houses wore under the con
trol of the combine and they were com
pelled to accept a smaller price than was of
fered on the ranches. It was either take
what wag offered or let the cattle tat their
own heads off."
KIP VAN WINKLE OUTDONE.
Paris Kilburn, the Surveyor of the Port,
is something of a story-teller In his peculiar
wav, with just a touch of Baron Aluncha'usen
In his menial composition. While conversing'
with a number of friends but night over a
now brand of cigars which have been forced
upon him by the passage of the McKinley
bill, he grew reminiscent.
"An item in one of the daily papers a few
mornings ago," he said, "recalled to my
mind an Incident that occurred down in
Monterey County a few years «go. A well
to-do farmer and his wife were living a few
miles from Monterey, and one night, long
after they had retired, the wife suddenly
awoke to discover that two burglars had
entered the house. Her first Impulse was
to scream, but thinking better of it she at
tempted to awake her husband without
alarming the trespassers. Shu shook lain
gently and whispered something to him, but
it had no effect. Becoming alarmed, she sat
up in bed and shook him violently.
Siill no response. , She became so absorbed .
in the attempt to arouse her husband that
she forgot all about the burglars and
shouted loudly iv his ear. This attracted
the alt-ntiou of the house-breakers, and
one of them beaming interested went to
her assistance. Both labored with the
sleeper, but it was no go. lie snored on hs
peacefully as ever, until, in despair, the
second burglar was called into assist. The.
three resorted to every means possible and
failed utterly. After a full half hour of
ineffectual labor the two burglars became
disgusted and left. The farmer slept oil
till morning, and when he At last awoke had
no remembrance ol what had happened."

in the Lait Event.
To decide the very important question as
to whether the Pacific Coast Blood-horse
Association conducts its meetings for the
benefit of the public, the book-makers or for
the improvement of the breed of running
horses is somewhat difficult. Perhaps a
plain straight publication of the facts as
they occurred on the opening days, Satur
day and yesterday, may enable the readers
of The Cam, to decide the question to their
full satisfaction.
A RECENT RULING OFF. :
The ruling off of Jockey Fred Ciirillo and
Trainer Brown for their unscrupulous poll
in?, at the instigation of a well-known
book-making firm, of the crack Al Farrow
at a recent meeting of the Blood-horse As
sociation is, no doubt, quite flush in the
memory of < lie race-noing public. So is the
ruling off of the association's tracks of a turf
reporter of a morning daily for publishing
certaiu criticism? 0:1 the association in con
nection with the matter. The ruling off
caused a suit for damages to be brought
against the association, which is still pond

A BALMY AFTERNOON.
For the second day's racing of the associa
tion at the lS.iy District Track yesterday, the
weather clerk dispensed a cold, chilly morn
ing with every indication of rain, and one
of the pleasantest, balmiest afternoons that
has been had for many a day. The track,
from the heavy fog of the preceding night,
was heavy and slippery, and is responsible
for the slow time made. The attendance,
doubtless from climatic causes, was about
half of what it was on tile opening day,
Saturday. Yesterday's- officers were:
Judges, Messrs. Taroey, Coleman and
Thompson ; timers. Meant. Dustin and
Kelly; starter, Frank de I'oister.
THE FIK^T RACE.
For tho opening event, v selling purse,
six-furlong lieats, Applause was justly
made, on public form, a strong favorite. He
was lifted at even money for the first heat,
and tho weight of the backing he received
sent him to 1 to '1 in quick order. Ida
Glenn and Revolver were the second picks
at 3 and 5 respectively, and went back to
8 isnd 2 and G and 2. Forrester was at 20
and 10, as were Wild Oats, Kilgariff and
Jtcksou. Net va was priced at 15 and 5.
applause's two heats.
Idn Glenn and Jackson made the first
showing when the flag fell, with the favorite
third. He went to the front at tin; quarter
and was never headed, and won hands
down by an easy length. Forrester and liia
Glenn had a sharp fit'ht for the place, which
Forrester secured by h neck. Time, '1:18J4-
Kilgariff was distanced.
Applause was placed at 1 to 6 for the sec
ond heat. The only speculation was on the
place, for which Revolver, who was sup
posed to have laid up the heat, was favorite
at 7to 5 nnd IB to 1 to win. The others
were at fancy Satires. Forrester, who again
got second place, was laid nuaiiist ut 'M and
5. Forrester and Wild Oats were the first
away. Applause went to the front before
the half was reached and won as hii pleased
In 1:18%. Theie was a close battle for tne
place between Forrester and Wild O.its,
which the former -soured by a neck.

This race caused more; angry conuueut
from the public and ■ several • well-known

Deliberate friiudwas openly charged against
Jockey Narrarz, who was freely licensed of
having . sold j out to \ the book-makers. "■;-_■ The ;
bftiins looked most suspicious and savored
liiniily of a job, and again substantiated the
repei.ted suggestions inadn in the turf col
umns of Tiik Call that the Judges should
PRICE FIVE CENTS.
not confine themselves to simply judging Mia!
results of the races, but should watch closely
what transpires on the outside. • "-:•':
The betting opened at 3 to 5 Rosebud, 3 to
1 Nero, . the two Palo Alto entries. P!ar«
money was refused on.Kosebud and Kara '
was held at Ito 2. siufnx opened at 5 and
evens for the place, one particular book of-
fering 2 to 1 against him for the place, white
most of the others held him at evens, though
a few offered 6 to 5 against him for the situ
ation. When these odds had stood for » -
while the 2 to 1 Nero i lace odds were rubbed
out and the particular book-maker's partner
made a visit alt along the line; placing 850 each
way with every book (but his partner's) on
Siofax. Tim money was put on very quietly; j
but that a job was in the air was apparent. .
To get even on Sinfax money level odd* ,
were offered against Rosebud and Nero. t As ;
the result proved neither were one, two.
Yet in the pools sold on the previous even- .
ing they were held out at 1 to 4, and thai
same in yesterday mornine's betting. ..
When the judge's decision • was an- :
nounced there was a howl of indignation '
from the public. Attention was at oneo ■
directed to Xarvaez's riding. —He had tfra
mount on Nero. His riding of- Racine, :
when he was beaten East In his last raw,
was remembered; also the free criticisms uT.
the Eastern press, who openly accused him .
of having successfully done his best to lot«
with Racine. Xarvaez's ' awful : riding •: ol
Marigold lost Saturday was also distinctly 5
recalled and so was his handling of KiliarV
yesterday: also his handling of Alfaretta •
on Saturday. His very friendly relation* .
with the book-maker who made the Sinfax
coup were recalled. ■ ..'•.-.•.- "
The resume of the public opinion was that:
another job had been successfully carried
out right under the judges' nines/" Mora ■
than probably charges will be pre
ferred against Narvaez before the Blood?
horse Association at tlitir annual meeting.-
It the association cares at all to have Mm-"
confidence of the public they should at rnca
institute a rigid investigation into .this!
special case, and if Narvae/. b« found guilt* -.
punishment should be Immediately inflicted.
Carillo'a present condition ought to be »'
warning to all jockeys, but apparently they
value a booK-maker's few dollars paid them
in hand more than their future success in
life. . : ' ' -' ■>■/.,:■:
