FUTURITY WILL
BE RUN TO-DAY
Never Before Were the
Starters So Well
Matched.
Every Entry for the $50,000
Purse Has a Chance to
Land It.
The Much -Touted How'and Will
Ba Ridden by Jockey
Wllhlte.
NEW YORK, N. V., Aus. 23.— The
ereat $50,000 futurity, the biggest of two
year-ul t prizes, will be decided at t?heeps
hea . Bay to-morrow, opening the Coney
Island Jockey Club's meeting. The rac<
was never so oi>en as it is this year, tl.e
field of eiehteen being very equally
matched. This year there are no stars o!
superlative luster, although Howland,
Gibraltar, Cock Robin, L'Alo ette, The
Huguenot, Previous and other candidate?
have shown well, both in Dublic and pri
vate trials. Then there is a host of dark
ones whose capabilities have been care
fully kept under cover, and on the whole
the race has a delightful air of ancer
tainty about it.
Naturally every owner and trainer thinks
his nomination has a chance at it, and as
it is a good gamble oi $300 or thereabouts
to via $50,000 not many oT those who
iiave a colt or filly engaged are going
to ihrow away the chance to tempt for
tune.
AU the youngsters engaged retired early
to-day and will not be asKed to do any
thing but the warming-up until they face
the starter.
The Messrs. Thompson are going to
start The Huguenot, Gibraltar and
L'Alouette. Willie Martin, Scherrei and
Clawson respectively will have the
mounts. James R. Keene will be repre
sented by Uriel and Cock Robin, to be
piloted oy Tod Sloane and "Skeets" Mar
tin. Marcus Daly's trio will be Gruna
Sachem, Amazonian and Briar Sweel
with Taral on Amazonian. Since William
Peun's fall irom grace Demagosue is with
out a rider, but "J\ruiny" McLaughlin
will hunt up a jockey. Previous will be
ritiden by William Sim s and John E.
Madden will probably have to put up his
own lisiitweitiht, Wilhite, on Howland.
Lydian is not on the programme, but may
be added. If Lydmn is a non-starter
Madden may put Thorpe on Howland,
Handsel will be ridden oy Lonme Clay
ton and Tiny Williams wiiJ be up on
Plaudit. Arquebus will have Dogeett up
at a few pounds over weight and John
McCaferty wili ride his own colt Gala
Day, scaling probably four pounds over.
Harry Lewis will be hve pounds over on
Ruby Lips. Central Trust will probably
be ridden by Hewitt.
David Gideon said to-night that he did
noi think he would start je'rohman, but if
he did Perkins would do the riding.
The rain to-night was scarcely heavy
enough to make tne track real heavy, out
if the downpour continues no power can
make me footing good. There are several
owners who have been praying for rain,
as their chargers prefer mud to a fast
track.
SKIRMISHING OF VETERAXS.
Chio Fighting for the Commander
in-Chief and Also the Next
Place of Meeting.
BL'FFALO. N. V., Aug. 23.— Colonel
Mact's foes moved in from all quarters of
the Union to-day, but when they had
been lined up and counted the little man
from the Sandusky still Jed all other can
flidates for commander-in-chief of the G.
A. R. To-night he claims that a majority
of six i 3 already pledged to him.
By a deal made to-day through Colonel
Shaw, department commander. Mack is
assured of almost ail the votes of the New
York delegation. General Gobin of Penn
sylvania and John C. Linehan of New
Hampshire got In to-day, and opened fire
on Muck, bin it did noi trouble him. The
source of his worry is the Cincinnati
movement. That movement got here
eariy this morning. It brought a caterer
and much that is belter than Cincinnati
water, and began an open-house cam
paign. They claim to have the dupport
oi all the Central and Southern State?,
and have assurances of friendly interest
from a number of Eastern States.
General Lint-han began his campaign by
saying: "To elect Comrade Mack tbe G.
A . R. would be called upon to violate one
of us time-honored precedents. It has al
ways been the rule to lake a man from
the Westons year, and a man from the
PJhbi next.' 1
Colonel Sexton of Chicaco has not con
sented to the use of his name, ana is not
now regarded as a rival of Mack. When
he arrived to-day lie found that MacK had
picked up a good proportion of the dele
gates all through tne West.
Mack's supporters declare that they are
strong enough to prevail upon tbe en
campment, to elect the commander first,
und the place of meeting afterward.
LUETG 1:1:2 ox triajj.
Counsel for the Sv.usagt-Makrr Spring n
Sentation.
CHICAGO, 111.. Au '. 23. — Adolph
Luetgert, the wealthy sausage-manu
facturer accused of murdering his wife
Louisa, was placed on trial in the crimi
nal court to-day. Owing to the wide
spread notoriety of the case since the
liisnppearance of Mrs. Luetgert on May 1
and the subsequent finding of rings identi
fied as hers, and of the traces said to be
of human flesh and bones in a vat in Luet
gert's factory, it is expected that a great
deal of time will be wasted in getting a
jury.
Both sides announced their readiness to
rroceed to trial as soon as the case was
called. Lv teert betrayed great anxiety,
and was much more nervous aii'i haggard
than during the bearing of the habaes
corpus case, when he vainly sought re
lease on bail. His attorney, Ex-Judge
Vincent, sprang a sensation as soon as
Judge Tuthiil ordered a special venire of
100 men drawn from the jurj-box under
the provisions of the new law. Vincent
gave notice thai he would attack the con
stitutionality of the law and tile objec
tions. This means a lenethy legal tilt be
fore the business of getting a jury can be
commenced. An npjeal will certainly
follow an unfavorable decision by the
court, or even if Luetgert is tentenced to
hang he will have a long respite until the
Supreme Court passes upon the case.
Ihe court adjourned to give the bailiffs
time to summon the venire. Judge Tut
hiil will pass on the defense's objections
to-morrow morning.

Xrangr Sprll With Hhich a Xoung Man
JQTrtf Struggled fnrXearg.
BOSTON, Mass., Aug. 2iJ.— The attention
of the police ha.i been called to a young
man at a board ing- house in North Square.
His name is Ferdinand Kneif, and he
thinks he is being constantly followed by
a well-known variety actress, who has
hypnotic power over him. This idea Ims
complete sway in hi 3 mind. His one idea
makes his life miserable. He no sooner
gets a chance to work thun he a, yes up the
i>iace on the ground that he cannot hold it
after being found out Ly his r-hadow, the
actress. He si.ffers much mental distress.
His trouble \v:th the hypnotic actress
dales back rive years, when he went to *cc
a play at a Tund-avenue theater in New
York. He was deeply interested in the
i lay, and at last, he says, he found thai
the soubrette wa« trying to hypnotize him.
He says she looked straight at him over
the footlights, and said, "1 want you."
That settlt-d it in his mind. He went
home all in a tremble and in great mental
digress, and from that day to this he has
not been free from tbe tnought that thi
young woman is trying to make an actor
of h;m by hypnotizin-j him.
MURDER OF DR. CODY.
lam and Fobbed by a > tranger With
Whom He Was Traveling in
Indian Territory.
WICHITA. Kans., Aug. 23.— About two
we ks ago Dr. John Cody of Pawhuska, 1.
T., started irom his 'iome toward Tulsa,
taking passuge with a stranger, wuo iiroye
a hack between tbe two points. About
seventeen mi.es north of Tulsa on tbe
Pawhuska trail the two men were seen to
make their camp for the night, and the
■iext day the stranger went away with his
horse, leaving the hack standing in the
middle of the creek. He tolil several par
ties that he had mired and would return
for the vehicle, and stated that bis com
panion had cone on ahead. The back has
*tood there ever since, and the people be
coming suspicious made an investigation
today, which revealed tbe fact that a
horrible crime bad been committed. A
heavy body had been dragged from the
camp to a dry ditch several yards away
und tbe trail led to a pile of brush. When
his had been removed the half tiecom-
posed body of a man was revealed, which
was identified as that of Dr. Cody. Mark
on the body showed that be had been
stabbed. The motive was undoubtedly
robbery, as Dr. Cody's gold watch was
gone and his pockets had been rifled of ah
his money. He left Pawhuska with over
$100 in gold. The deputy marshals are
making every effert to learn the identity
of the murderer.
SIXTY-NINE CENTS OR NO COAL
Miners Fefuse to Meet the Operators
Half Way Fending Settlement
by Arbitration
PITTBBURG, Pa., Aug. 23.— The coal
operators and miners held a conference
to-day which was not encouraging to
those who wish to end the strike. The
operators gave way right along, hoping to
induce the miners' representatives to
agree to some kind of settlement.
. For every point the operators gave up in
the interest of peace the miners advanced
their own claims. Another meeting will
be held to-morrow, but unless the miners
show a more conci.iaiory spirit the id ie
mines will be started with non-union
men, with all the consequences such a
proceeding implies.
Each siiie will agree to arbitration pro
viding its own terms are arcepted. Early
in the day he operators learned that tbe
miners insisted, in case of arbitration,
that the miners get ti9 cents a ton pending
the decision of the arbitrators. The oper
ators made tbe following proposition:
"We will agree to arbitrate the question
of wages, and pending a decision we will
pay to miners 62}^ cents a ton, thus split
ting the d.i Terence between 54 and 69
cents. The arbitrators are 10 retidar their
decision within thirty days. As ac
cording to custom two weeks' wages
are withheld from miners, there will
be no payday for thirty days. On pay
day, supposing the arbitrators to have
rendered their decision, we will pay min
ers for their wori: any additional wages
the arbitrators mar award to them up to
60 cents. Siiouid the arbitrators award
less than 61 % cents, we agree not to de
duct the amount from the miners' wages."
This p:oposition was rejected by the
miners.
During the afternoon Colonel W. P.
Rend and Piesident Ratcbford got into
an altercation. Rend in a passion said be
had lleti t the conference because Ratchfonl
would not agree 10 arbitration unless all
the competitive coalfields were repre
sented and the miners were allowed,
p ndine arbitration, a 69-cent rate.
After Rend left the operators tried to
convince Katcnlord thai the Indiana and
Illinois mine-owners would consent to in
terstate conference. Al last Dolan made a
proposition. The miners' representatives,
he said, wanted an in ters'.ate conference, if
(O-sib.e. If the Indiana and Illinois
operators refused to come in, then the
miners' officials would consent to discuss
the question of settlement with the Pitts
burg operators. The miners would not
consent to arbitration unless the operators
would agree to pay a 69-cent rate pnndine
decision. When the miners' officials went
to supper they left the operators to confer
together.
These were so hopeful that the miner
would consent to waive their contention
lor an interstate agreement that they ap
pointed a committee to confer with them
after supper. A committee of operators
and miners talked together until 10:30
p. m. and adjourned until 10 o'clock to
morrow morning.
Members of tbe operators' committee
said that all idea of an interstate confer
ence had been abandoned, but Ratcbford
und Dolan said this was not true, and
they still hoped to have a conference of
the four States interested.
At midniglit the operators' committee
issued the following statement: "At a
joint meeting of tbe committees various
propositions were submitted as a basis for
arbitration. The point at is-ue is the rate
which shall be pa id pending decision by
the arbitrators. No agreement being ar
rived at and the conference desiring time
to consider the proposals made the con
ference adjourned. until to-morrow."

MERRY WAR A. KAMSAS CITI.
Poolroom Proprietor* "tid Jiacetrael;
Men in Conflict,
KANSAS CITY, Mo., Aug. 23— Tho war
between the poolroom proprietors and the
racetrack men is being fiercely waged.
The last Missouri Legislature passed w iit
is known as the "breeders' law," because
it was introduced at the request of the
stock-breeders. It made race playing
except at racetracks illegal, and was very
strict. The law effectually stopped the
poolrooms until Judge Murphy, in a deci
sion in St. Louis recently, held that it was
illegal. Then the p olrooms opened up in
old-time siyle and ihe play went on In
naif a dozen place*. Prosecutor low
declined to interfere, saving thit the
Grand Jury would meet, and as all Juitict
court cases would be appealed anyhow he
preferred that they should originate in
the criminal court.
But tbe racetrack men were not satisfied
with this condition of things, and swore
out warrantu c argini; the poolroom men
with gambling, and last Thursday t fie
police made h raid on the poolrooms,
closing most of them and arresting i
laree number of their visitors.
The poolroom men threaten venceance,
and since thai they have sworn out war
rants aguinst tbe racetrack men, but to
day the hitter took the initiative ana
secured a temporary injunction forbidding
the police to raid the racetracks.

weak wreck of humanity named F. A.

A STATUE OF BRONZE.
It Will Stand High Over the
Portal of St. Ignatius
Church.
The Gift of an Ardent but Unknown
Admirer of Rev. Father
Varsi.
A heroic figure of bronze representing
St. Ignatius will soon stand between the
two tall towers of St. Ignatius Church,
and over the main entrance to the sanctn
ary. The siatue arived from Paris yester
day, and without delay it will be raised to
its position overlooking Hayes street.
But few of the congregation know who
gave the statue, and those few will not
tell, for it was the donor's wish that this
should be kept secret. It was promised
two years ago, and was to be in commem
oration of the golden jubilee of Father
Varsi, one of the oldest and besi-beloved
of the Jesuit priests on this coast. Ths
donor, it is understood, is one of the
wealthier members of the parish of St.
Ignatius.
The future wns designed and cast by
Soussleigue of Paris, and is considered
• >ne of bis best works. The figure stands
twelve feet in height, atid is made of the
finest Dronze. It v, eighs nearly 5000
pounds.
A costly pedestal is being erec*ed on the
front wall of the big -tone buil'!in<r, and
when in place the statue wi 1 have v
most imposing appearance. There will be
no particular ceremonies attendant upon
the raising of the statue. It will be lifted
to its place high over the great doorway,
and the admiration of the passing wor
shipers will be ts best and only tribute.
September 12 the annual mission will be
heid at 8U Ignatius. The service will
last, two weeks. The first week will be de
voted to wom»>n, the second to men A
series of lecture-" will be delivered by
Father Finnegan and Father Van dei
Esd >i n, who will come here from Bt. Louis
lor the purpose of addressing the people
at the mission.

An insurance and collection agent in Otsego County,
New York, constantly recommends Ripans Tabules to every-
body whom he suspects of suffering from dyspepsia, and takes
pleasure in relating his own experience, as follows : " I have
been a sufferer from dyspepsia for a dozen years or more, and
have tried all kinds of medicines that were said to be good (or a
positive cure), but none of them afforded much relief. I have
always been blessed with a keen appetite and have, perhaps, in-
dulged too heartily at times and suffered accordingly. Last
winter while traveling through an adjoining county I first
learned of Ripans Tabules, and was induced by a friend to try
them. They have done me a great deal of good, and I think
that I have fair promise of a permanent cure. If I would b*
regular about my meals now, I am sure I should be well."
