Robert J.'ft Wonderful Performance. It was 8:20 o'clock when Robert J. Btarted to beat 1*is own and the world's record of The atmosphere WFIS sultrv, but the clouds had disappeared and the wind had gone down. The king of pacers made a 1ad break in the second scoring, but got away well in the center of the track on the third attempt that he. might the better get around the first short turn of the fourcornered traek. It was seen that ho was at his best, and when the quarter was caught at hope grew strong. The runner which was making the pace came alongside Robert «J.'s sulky near the half, which was made in IrOO1-^, and the 0,000 people rose up and cheered. The three-quarters was reached in 1:80?*, making the middle half of the mile in the phenomina! time of :6v):£, or at the rate of 1:59 for the mile.
He came home strong and went under the wire with the apparent courage and effort of his first quarter. The time, 2:01%, was put up at once. There was no dispute among either the otilcial timers or the many expert timers among the horsemen gathered in line with the wire at either side of the track. The cheering which began with eight of the figures had not ceased when Geers came back to the wire with the great pacer. The track was covered with people. Some of them caught (leers upon their shoulders and carried him to the fence in front of the grand stand, where he waa received with cheers.

She went to the third quarter in 1:'U, just as she did on the other occasion. but she could not come home fast enough. "When the 2:04*V was shown there was not a ripple of applause. The mile was a great one for the little mare, considering what she had been called upon to do this year, but the crowd was unappreciative.

Soon afterward Joe 1'atchen was brought out. lie was sent to beat the stallion racing record of *2:05^, which held good until Gentry's mile was made earlier iu the day. He won the first quarter in :301s,', the half in 1:01% tiie three-quarters in l:!j'2 and the mile iu 2:04. Joe I'atchon's 2:04 is the fourth 20:4 mile over the Terrc Haute track.

Directly, the black son of the whirlwind 'Direct, started to beat the 2:10 mile made by the 2-year-old colt Carbonate several days ago which took one-quarter, of a second from the 2-year-old record made by Directly a few weeks ago, but he could do no better than tie the new record. Later in the afternoon Carbonate was sent to beat his own mark of 2:10 and did it so handsomely that next to Robert J. he was the idol of the day. At the first quarter the watches or *ght 81#, and it was feared that Jack urry was sending him too fast, (leers with the runner came up with him at the half in 1:03?^' and the 2:07 gait was thought to be crowding the gray colt so fast that he could not get home ahead of the 2:10 record, but three-quarters was passed in 1 J55, and he came under the wire in 2:09.

GONE TO SMASH.
All Kant and Weat-Bound Atlantic Itecorris Are ltoatcn.
Nmv YOIIK, Sept, 15.—The American lino steamship New York has been sighted off Fire Island, 75 mile* from New York something like I hour and 17 minutes ahead of all records on the rnn from Southampton to New York, This news is particularly cheering- because only Thursday night a cable from London reported the British Cunarder Lueania as swashing' all east-bound records, The New York loft Southampton last Saturday.
Tho New York's previous fast trip ended on August 24, when she bent the rocord of the 1'aris, of the same line, by 50 minutes. Her time of passage on that record-breaking trip was 0 days 8 hourB and 3S minutes. The computfldtimo of lier present voyaye is 0 days 7 hours and 7 minutes, reducing her former record 1 hour and !il minutes.
Tho record of tho previous fastest trip made from New York to .Southampton is hold by tho luierbt Ulsinarek, of the Hamburg-American lino. Sho made it on .September 2S, 1S9H, when she completed the run in 1 (lavs 10 hours aud 55 minutes.
The New York was built in Glasgow in 1S88 and has maintained the life of a record smasher almost from her first day. The boat is of 5.7 tons burden, or 1U,41W gross tonnage. Like her sister ship, the Paris, she was built by J. & («. Thompson, and is exactly the. same dimensions—5S0 feet ill length, 03 feet in width and 57 feot in depth.
LONDON, Sept. 1ft.—The remarkable performance of the Cunard lino steamer Lueania which arrived at Queenstown from New York at !i:47 a. in. Friday has created considerable excitement in shipping eirclcs, and is a matter of public comment. The Lucania's day's runs were 147, rlJ, 41)4, 514, 500 and !i»7, making a total of 2,810 knots her average speed being 21.84 knots, A singular feature of the trip is the fact that the Lucania's records for both the eastward and westward voyages are identically the same, namely, 5 days, 8 hours and :i8 minutes, but on the present eastward trip she covered a distance of 'JM miles more than she did on her record-break-ing trip last month. The Lueania by lier present performance firmly establishes her position as "Queen of tho Sea," having crossed the ocean in both directions in ieHS time than any other steamer. She holds tho highest average hourly speed record, Bl.SS) knots made in .lunc last, and her 500 knots covered in one duv In October, 1801), is still the record for the longest day's run. The probabilities are that there will be no more record breaking this year, as September gales are about duo.

The great increase in iron production, which was noted as following th* removal of coke dlfileultieK. is measured by the capacity of furnaces in blast September 1 namely: 1M.U3 tons, against llS.HSft Augum 1, and the unsold stocks also ducrohsod 8f»..3{*4 tons during the month.

CONVICTED OF CONTEMPT.

Schlotz, president of the Torre Hauto brunch of the American Hallway union, and A. 11. Daniels, who was chairman of tho grievance committee of the Torre Haute union during the recent strike, were found guilty of contempt of court by Judge linker, of the 1'nited States court. The court released the men on their good behavior. The evidence against Sehlotz was that lie indulged iu iniiainmatory language during the strike that he declared that a tlag on which would be written the letters "A. U. C." would take the place of the stars and stripes that he said to men who would not strike that every man who continued at work would be out of work after the strike was over, ami that every man who did not strike would be branded with a red-hot iron. Seholtx maintained that most of these remarks were made in a jocular spirit.
The evidence agaiust Daniels was that in order to intimidate Superintendent Corbett, of the Hvansville & Terrc Haute road, he hurled a stone at him, aud thtrt he entered the telegraph ofiiee of one of the railroads and threw to the iloor books und papers belonging to the oilice.

MINSEAI'OI.IS, Minn., Sept. 15.—Kirby Burnum, who owns a farm near tho western bonier of Ihn proat lUvl Ltiko Indian reservation, in the northern purt of tho state, has just returned from a perilous trip down tho Thief river, which skirts that reservation 011 the west. The trip was made in a small passenger steamer that plies bet.worn the Indian tifrcnoy and Thief Uiver Falls, a distaneo of 1B0 miles. Fully half of tho trip was made between walls of fire. Mr. Harnum says that the llatneshavo jumped the Thief river and eut a swath through the dense forest fully 00 miles wide. The whole country is a(l line, but owing to the f»et, that communication Is slow little has been heard from it farther south.
The steamer was forced to go and 4 miles at a time, and then everybody would get out and stand in the water 011 the sandbar until the fire and heat had abated somewhat. Several times the boat was afire, and it wasonly with the utmost difficulty that it was saved. If it had burned the whole party must have perished. The water in the river had been raised to such a temperaturO by the fire that its surface was covered with millions of dead fish. Hear, deer and other larffe frame were fleeing' from the tiames in great confusion.

Many small canoe parties of Indians were encountered making their way down stream as best thoy could. There has probably been loss of life among them. Mr. Harnum says that the fire originated in a blaze set by a man who had tried to get control of some hay land from tho government. It was given to another man, and out of spite he hired two men to set fire to it. The flames soon spread to the forest, which has been burning ever since. The people in Thief River Fallu and vicinity wero so indignant over this act that thoy threatened to lynch the man if ho could be found, lie has disappeared with the two men he hired to do the deed.
