The two races on the programme at the täte fair yesterday afternoon did nut prove rery exciting, hut the immense crowd was well pletaed. The grand stand was packed early In the afternoon and those who arrived late heard the "standing room only" cry as they walked up the steps lending to the amphitheater. The spectators crowded on the track, leaving a narrow opening for the horses to trot down the stretch, but there was space enough on the track tor the speeders, as in nearly every heat it was a case of a procession dovn the stretch. The fences along the home stretch were lined with spectators eager to see a race. The mile track was used for the races, but It was very slow. It had dried out sufficiently to be used, but was rough and unworked and necessarily several seconds slow. Considering the condition of the track, the time in the various heats was very good. The regular events had been declared off and two extra events were arranged for the afternoon, a 2:17 pace and a 2:25 trot. There were seven starterä in the 2:17 pace. Black Pet was easily the favorite and won In three atraight heats. Ethel Mc. driven by McCarthy, was second in the first two heata. Pine Bush, driven by Float Jolly, gave Black Pet a race into the home stretch but broke and Black Pet had no trouble winning. The fastest heat of the race was 1:14V made In the final heat. Bermuda Maid had everything her own way In the 2:25 trot and easily won first money in three straight heats. Loyal Baron gave the favorite a little race for the first quarter In the first two heats, but the Dlack horse broke badly and was never a serious contender in the race for the wire. Beil.Rose would have given Bermuda Maid a good race in the final heat had she kept her stride Just before rounding the last turn into the stretch. She broke badly and Bermuda Maid increased her lead by several lengths. A yesterdsy was the lust day of the rares Starter Newton announced that the money in the 2:30 trot and the 2:08 pace on the programme for last Tuesday would be divided the way the horses finished In the one heat that was given in each event In the 2:30 trot Laundry Boy won first money.

NEEDS OF THE BLACK MAN BOOKER T. WASHINGTON'S ADDRESS BEFORE NEGRO BAPTISTS. He 1 ell.. Colored Preacher They Must Solve the Employment Problem for Their- Race. PHILADELPHIA, Sept. lS.-At to-days session of the National Negro Baptists' Convention, J. Thomas Turner, of Texas, introduced resolution imploring "our people to refrain from any act that gives the mob an occasiou or pretext for its unholy and unwarranted destruction of lives and the breaking down of constituted aud Godgiven government.' The resolution was referred to a committee. The book, "Leopard Spots," by Thor .as Dixon, was denounced In a resolution offered by Rev. J. M. Caldwell and Rev. A. Barbour, of Texas, as traducing the colored race. Over ten thousand people attended tonight's session of the convention at the National Exposition building and listened to addresses by Booker T. Washington and Rev. Dr. Dean Richmond Babbitt, of New York. Mr. Washington addressed himself to the church delegates and in the course of his speech said: "In a large degree the negro minister, during the last twenty-rive or thirty years, has been the preserver of peace and harmony between the races, but for the forbearance and patience and the gentle tact of the negro minister many race riots .uld have occurred in our country. In a peculiar sense you will lind more and more that it will become the duty of the negro minister to take the unpopular side of many public questions. What wo need in an increasing degree is that kind of leadership in the pulpit that is willing to stand adverse criticism, to be misunderstood and even abused, for the sake of the right. Our people do not need Hattery, much as they need facts. "You will find one of the problems that is going to press Ml seriously upon you for solution in the near future than In the past is the one of employment for our people, especially in Northern cities. We can only hold our own in the world of labor and industry by teaching mir people to do a thing as well as anybody else, by teaching them to perform common labor in an uncommon manner. We cannot hold our own in the labor world unless we are constantly taking advantage of every opportunity to improve ourselves. " In his further remarks Mr. Washington Old: "Bishop Chandler, of Georgia, struck, in my opinion, the heart of the race ipn stlon a few days ago when he said that each lace should try to correct the evils among its own people, and that the white race should cease abusing the negro at long range and that the negro at the same time should cease his cross-fire at the white man. It will be to our interest In every manly, straightforward manner to cultivate the friendship of people among whom we live." Rev. Dr. Babbitt delivered a lecture on "The Negro and the Nation." He contended that the real negro question before America is to give the negro th a highest possible development of American manhood. He said that voluntary, economic, industrial, persuasive transplantation from the congested and illKerate black belts of the South to the regions of the North and West sholuld be immediately attempted and slowly, systematically curried on. Some of the practical and needy benefits to the illiterate, superstitious and morally Inadequate negroes of the congested black belts of Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia. Florida and Louisiana, he said, would be their rearing, moral and intellectual expansion and general uplifting in the different and betti r Industrial and educational conditions of tl.e North. The North ought not to object, for this, he said. Is truly a national problem and not a sectional one.

SHUT DOWN AT THE "S00" HUNDRED - MILLION - DOLLAR CONCERN TO CLOSE ITS PLANTS. Troubles of the Consolidated Lake Superior Company Will Affect Thousands of Persons. SAULT STE. MARIE, Mich., Sept. tt. Pending the outcome of the financial difficulties in which the Consolidated Lake Superior Company is now involved. President Shields has issued orders to temporarily close down all of the operations of the company, except the street-railway system on both sides of the river, the ferry system and the Tagona Light and Power Company, of the Canadian Soo. This step is taken, it is announced, because the funds of the company are exhausted, and Mr. Shields does not want to incur further liabilities until it is known where the money with which to meet them is coming from. Inasmuch as the company's operations on the American side are confined to the streetrailway and tbe power-house force, the order will not materially affect the American "Soo." In the Canadian "Soo,"' however, the effect on business will be very extensive. The total number of men thrown out of employment is 3,r00. Train service over the Algoma Central Railroad, owing to the cessation of work in the woods, will be reduced to one train per week. The Helen and Grace mines at Michipicoton will be shut down, as will the Gertrude nickel mine at Sudbury. The general staff of the company will be reduced from ninety to fifteen men. ROOT ASKS QUESTIONS SECRETARY OF WAR DISP1 TES MR. FINL AY'S CONTENTIONS. Fire of Queries in Hegard to the Fixing; of the Alaskan Rounder y Line. LONDON, Sept. 1$. When the Alaskan Boundary Commission resumed its sessions to-day Attorney General Fiulay was subjected by War Secretary Root and Senators Lodge and Turner to a fire of questions in connection with his attempt to show that the boundary should run from the head of the Portland canal directly westward to the point where the mountains claimed by the Canadians as the boundary intersect the fifty-sixth parallel of latitude. The contention of the United States is that the boundary continues up to Bear river valley from the port of Portland canal to the fifty-sixth parallel. In this connection Mr. Root called the attorney general's attention that Vancouver referred to Marsly Pass as the head of the canal and asked if it was not natural to suppose that the signatories of the treaty intended to fohow the pass to the fifty-sixth degree. The attorney general replied that the line under the treaty could not run farther than the water canal and from that point must seek the mountains at the fifty-sixth parallel. Senator Lodge suggested that this would mean that the line must cross the mountains to reach those points described in the Canadian case, which the attorney general evaded touching upon. The attorney general passed during the afternoon to the discussion of the location of the line from the fifty-sixth parallel to Mount St. Elias, asserting that if the contention of the United States that the boundary should go around the heads of inlets was admitted then, corresponding-, Canada should gain by the tribunal deciding that the line should follow ten marine leagues from the shores of peninsulas. Judge John M. Dickinson, of the American counsel, said the United States was contending only for the heads on inlets and not beyond, the attorney general having raised the point that the American claim for tidewater as the boundary might put the boundary far into the interior of Canada.

WANAMAKER A WITNESS FORMER POSTMASTER (d-AERAL TESTIFIES 1 HIS OW BEHALF. Slander Suit throwing- Out of the Late Onarrel Between Pennsylvania Kepnhllean Factions. BEAVER, Pa., Sept. IS. The morning session of the Robinson-Wanamaker slander suit was the most interesting so far held for the reason that it was a lawyers' struggle from the start, the prosecution objecting very often to the line of testimony which the Wanamaker attorneys wanted to get in. Efforts were made to bring out the troubles in the cabinet of Governor Hastings which led to the resignation of John P. Elkin and Frank Reeder. Col. Wilbur F. Reeder, who was deputy attorney general in Governor Hastings's administration, was again called to-day. He testified that he had given an opinion to Governor Hastings to the effect that the publication of the bird book was not authorized by the resolution of the Legislature, which authorized the republication of the poultry book. Mr. Reeder said he did not think the bird book of 1,000 pages, containing lfl colored plates and much matter not relating to poultry, was consistent with the resolution which authorized the republication of the poultry book. Mr. Wanamaker was called to the stand shortly before noon. His direct examination lasted but a few moments, and when he was turned over to Attorney McQuiston, for the defense, he was plied vigorously with questeions. Asked the purpose of his now famous speech, Mr. Wanamaker said it was to lay open the system of the state officials, for their conduct was improper. Ho had gained his facts from Governor Hastings, Correspondent George Wambaugh and from newspaper clippings and in other ways. "Did you refer to the indemnity bond?" "I think I did." "Did you use the word 'job?' " "I am not certain," replied Mr. Wanamaker. His direct testimony was closed with his assertion that the purpose of his speech had been to benefit the State by public disclosure. The cross-examination of Mr. Wanamaker was resumed after recess, and in reply to questions he said he received his information concerning the poultry book from Mr. Frank Sener, connected with the printing department. In his speech in connected with the "poultry book job" Dr. Warren Pearson and others, and mentioned Robinson's name only to sympathise with him. He justified his speech Is reference to the unauthorized publication of the bird book by reading the clause in the legislative resolution which said the authors were to g.t no extra compensation for the work. TlM authors would not do all this work for nothing. "Did you take any active part in the campaign by making speeches for other candidates?" "I made many speeches in the interests of the taxpayers." "Were you opposed to the Quay machine?" "Tea, but not to Quay. He inherited the machine." "Did you want to be elected Governor?" "1 did not care much." Mr. Wanamaker was dismissed and the defense rested Ita case. RED DRAGON WRECKED. ; Siiihinl. n Snilor. One of the Five Men Who Perished. ATLANTIC CITY. N. J.. Sept.
