RAILROAD MEN ARE NOT THE GcHrERNMENT.

The Projectors of the I.eagne Say tt is Composed' Largety--of1 Sound Money Men. ~"y

Chicago, £eit. 5.—Tte teachings and principles of Eugene V. Debs are to be opposed by a national political organization of the ,„ r^^omewbere about 2:08. same class of men whom he claims to rep'[accomplished resent.

The preliminary arrangements for the Illinois branch. o£ tbe American Railway League„vthe new organization, were made today at a meeting held in one of the lodge rooms Of he Masonic Temple. The league has an open membership list. Every employe of a railroad from a president down to a track man is eligible, afid those foremost in the movement say that the organization is to be a non-parisan affair, which will not only heap benefits upon the Working railroad man, but will also work for the benefit of the railroad corporations, and more than fell, as it was put at the meeting, "correct the rapidly growing impression that the ordinary railroad man is agains the government and has employers on every question."

Grand President ft. 6. Kayler, o£ Ohio,' •presided at the meeting and there were at least 200 employes of railroads entering Chicago in attendance. J. W. Callahan, who was active in rhe .railway men's sound money organization last fall was elected president pro tern, of the Illinois branch. The 'business of the meeting had progressed thus far when the news of the death of Senior Conductor Hkutt, of Diyision No. 1, of the Brotherhood of Railway Conductors, was received, and caused an adjournment lot-

After the meeting, Grand President Kayler said: "There is nothing secret or mysterilous 4bout this organization. It is simply the outgrowth of the increasing intelligence of the employes of railroads. We have learned that it is more to our advantage to co-operate with the men who are paying-us wages than to Oppose then! al every' tiirn.: We believe thajt we can help them and help oufselves by an' enlightened use of the bat-' lot'box more than by strikes and boycotts.' We intend to take part in primary elections and every candidate who secures our sup-' port must first pledge himself that he will oppose legislation which will tend to reduce the' wages of railroad employes. We will no: attempt to work into national politico at once, although in time we may be forced to .'do so. I admit that, while our organization is made up on non-partisan lines at present, there is a preponderance of antisilver men enrolled. We have. fifty-one leagues in Ohio, and there are organizations in -Illinois, Wisconsin^ Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiaua, Missouri, Michigan, Colorado and Iowa.- In six months we hope to have organizations in at least twenty-six states. There are 900.000 railroad men in the United .States, and we believe we can be a tremendous power in 'poliics if we organize thoroughly."

HURRAH FOR IIOTTEXTOTS.

Dronberger and Stone Capture Five Races -fit iluntington Yesterday.

They are having a fair at Huntington. Infl., and thought a good way to start the thing off would be to have some good bicycle race«, so eight races were booked for the afternoon. Hal Dronberger, the lanky "phenom,"- and Arthur Stone, the Poly scortfher, entered for the races from this piicc. And they did not Stop at that, for they went to that town yesterday and pulled away five firsts from the other riders.

Dronberger won four firsts. He got in that wonderful sprint of his each time, surprising the others, so much that they forgot they were racing with him and watched him vanish it) cloud of dust over the tape ahead. Hal won the following races: Onequarter mile, one-half mile, one mile open and five mile.

Stolie was well up atec. He won second place in two of the races in which Dronberger scored first, the one-quarter mile and the mile open. He also took first in the five mile handicap race, starting at the scratch.

Today the two "Hottentots," as the racing element has dubbed them, will race at Shclbyville.

Just try a 10ft box of OasBarets, the finest liver and' bowel regulator over made.

THE JAIL A GOOD THING.

It Probably Saved the Life of Robert Myers Last Night. Robert (Myers may thank Patrolman Steve Clark that he is alive this morning. There ie every reason to believe that Clark saved Myers' life last night by putting him in jail. The officer found Myers, who ts a colored man, in the Big Four yards about 1 o'clock. The negrowas lying with his head on the ttw,ek. He was uuder a box ear and the rail was being utilized as a pillow. He was drunk, having accumulated a Labor Day J.5g and couldn't take it home. He was pulled out from under the car and sent ioi Jail.- It wasn't ten minutes after he was pulled from under the car that a switch endine backed up. hitched opto the cut of cars and pulled them out of the words. At the jail Myers became angry.§gd refused to tell feis name.-iHe also refasedL.t%be searched. Jailer Smith persuaded the negro that he would be* searched*!and^,also t^ll his name. He dealt the fellow a sb^rp rap over the head with" a healthy club and it was then that he yelled out that hi(S name ijtas,"JBob Myers/?'-'• He"ehed a quaFTof .more of 1 ood, but. will be able to ^pp^r' in. police court this' morning. John, Want* J^at Notaa, Thomas Ward,' Mike. Flaherty and Johnson were aleo arrested during the night for being drunk.

HORSEMEN DI!H tJSS STAK POINTER'S GREAT PERFORMANCE.

ilors${pen a/ still^discussing with great interest the wonderful ^erfprmance of Star Pointer in passing 'the"two-minute mark, and whenever any two devotees of the harness iipirse happen to.jpeet since the memoi*aisfe'

Went 'M. Eeadwe a week ago Saturday the subject is sure to come up, say£ tie Chicago Tribune.'

W. H. Knight, Unioii Pacific railroad, Ismail ardent horseman. Star Pointer's feat surprised him, he says, not because he did not think the two-minute Ajn%rk woulcyg^ver be^reached.Jbut because some years ago at Cleveland he saw the now undoubted champIon'"harness horse and did not Mice him. "Ed. Geers," said he, 'Iwas at that time sure the son of Brown Hal was the great pacer of the future la rid tried to get the

Hanrlins to buy him. He then had a mark Now that he has what he has, I am bound to syall in line and Ixjcome ail admirer, and it' seems to me that there is a chance for even a faster mark to be hung up by him. "O, yes, I am s^ill. a Jfe"**, b^iJ^ver that a, •trotter will beat the 2:0fi mark. Some think

S: Was •the Siifhefa^'' type''of trotter/ aii^i -she Wouldn't befit-'YttSWi" to high wheels (whih mark places her a dead tie with Alix with bike sulky),, that no other horse will trot much |aster. Well, to my notion Maud S. was not the highest type of trotter. It is true she had size and action. ajsd thoroughbred Wood, but remember she wore.sixr,ounce,-toe, weights.. Now, I claim that the 2:00 trotter^ is froing to be as clean as a whistle of toe .weights,* heavy shoes and boots. The horse most £ree Trbm all these things was Jay-Eye-See, who held for one day only rhe trotting record (2:10), and wifs dethroned by Maud S,- He wore the lightest of shoes." FAITH IN COL. QQULEY'S JUDGMENT

Then .Mr. Knight branched oft upon the merits? of "the- Dictartor family, which" pro-

FRANK GORTON'S SUGGESTION. S. Gortbri seemed to take it as a matter of c-O'Urse thai Star Pointer would do .the tri,ck. rl suggested to. Mr, Mur.phy," said Tie, "that he try pacing' his horse a 'trial fieat .with a pacing horse.turned loose at him at every quarter. We could have furnished four horses, each to pace a quarter in thirty seconds, and ,,make ,^1 relay race on our par.t. .fjii'st in the, line of novelty, you know, aS~ the runner behind a trotter or' pacer liks got old. But when Murphy came back to Chicago again his horse had been beai,en at Columbus, so. Ibe,ld my tongue. George West my driver, was glad that Star Pointer had made good all 'his (West's) talk to the boys out on the Iowa circuit, for•,he said, he ,had been blowing all "year that Star Pointer would beat the record, arid, possibly pace a mile better than 2:00."

Concerning Star Pointer, tbe general expression of .horsemen at the, Harlem track is that the 2:00 clia'mpiori is worth for money making purposes any quantity of thoroughbred race horses. Charley C. Ramrill, whp in 1883, owned the. pacer. Riehhail, said he. had thought for years that the 2:00 mark would he beaten, and that the bike su-lkry had' a gr^at deal to do with'the record of.-"Such a rig would have helped Richhall wonderfully. as he was a lit tic 'fellow, a nd. coudn't pull a load well, bnl.v weighing 770 pounds," said the big Texan.

B. J, JOHNSON'S REGRET.. B. J. Johnson, who ouce owned and drove the pacer WestinoiH-,- a horse that got a record of. 2:0Hi with a running mate, said: "I am sorry that I quit the pacer for the runner,* for if I had now been i-n the business I might have owned.Star Pointer mysef, and there can -be a great lot of money tnade exhibiting that horse, I was quite sure he would later in the season beat all records for1 the day-I -saw him at-Washing-ton park he was far,from being as fit as he could be."

George Wild, who has been with horses for years, riaid: "I thought it'only a question." of time when Murphy's-horse would beat two. minutes."

C-. W. Poole remarked: "Don't you remember what I told you the day of the pace at Washington park? Now, good day and track, and the horse just right, he has performed as.: I. predicted, and, beaten two minutes."

Mike Danaher declared that Star Pointer was the same class as a runner and that is a great concession

011

Colonel M. Lewis Clark said: "When I saw the two pacers come on the track at Washington park there was no question with me that the bay horse was the better of the pair, and I exihl'aimed: 'There'is a fellow that will beat all records.'

James Howard, secretary-oif the Wash--iugton park club, exclaimed: "I see some old-timers are quoted as saying they are not astonished.' Now see here! I have been around a good long while, but I was more than ^astonished.. I tell you when they beat records one and one-quarter seconds way down around two minutes I am dumbfounded."

Has No Use For the Pacer.

New York, Sept. 5.—Robert Bonner, who has owned so many or tiie fast trotting •horses of America, and whose interest In them is by no means diminished by his advancing years, doesn't think the two-min-ute trotter Is yet in sighr.

The performance of Star Pointer in cutting the pacing record within- the• twominute limit," said Mr. Bonner, "doesn appeal to me personally so very much. I don't take much.interest.in pacers. I have never owned orte" Last' winter said-to J. Malcolm Forbes, the yachtsman and horseman of Boston: 'I wouldn't .give more than two cents apiece for 'em.' we were talking of pacers at the. timg. 'Well, Mr. Bonner,' fie said, 'you vilue them more highly than'I do. My price for 'em is 10 ceiv.s a dozen.' "The ultimate

at which the future trotter or pacer will be driven—is somthing about which we can telt nothing: so much depends upon mechanical improvements- awl the condition of track and wind. "The bicycle record for one mile has been lowered from* about 2:3ft: to' the titne of a running horse within-a-very fe-w years by the use of the poaumatic. tire-and the ball-be-aring ax'p. The "bicycle sulky increased the speed of trotters by five or Six seconds. In some cases it increased tbe jfece of colts by eight ot nine seconds, y.et many drivers hesitated^At lirsJLto use tt.
