into the ciErcumstances of Soar-lett'B death
at his boarding house, 59 Regent street, on
Saturday afternoon. After viewing the
body an adjournment was made to tate
Police Court, where the jury reassembled
at 7 o'clock.
Charles R. Gray was the first witness.
He swore as follows: I was in theAquatio
saloon at 10.30 t bristmae night. Deceased
and Douglaa were there and bantering
good-naturedly. Deceased was drinking. I
left the place and went halfway to King
street. I came back and saw Scarlett
standing apart in the room. In a minute
or two I turned round and saw Douglas
with his arms around deceased's waist.
Douglas pushed Soarlett towards the side.

doorway and went down, Donglae on top.
Douglas helped Soarlett ap and the latter
went out. I saw him in the lane. He had

was doing and saying. Scarlett walked
away as if nothing had happened, perfectly
straight. Douglas put him out quietly and
used no violence. Qnly myself, my bro.
ther, Captain Kemp and Lewis Walker
could see what went on. Douglas could
not have kicked or etrnok Soarlett in the
position they were in. Douglas showed no
irritation. r II�

Coroner Johnson oonolnded the Soarlett
inquest in Toronto last night. Drs. Old -
right and Spencer, who conducted the post
mortem, were the only witnesses and they
gave evidence `to the effect that. the de-
ceased's' death resulted from peritonitis,
but could not definitely assign any particu-
lar cause.. The jury brought in a verdict
of death from peritonitis, practically leav
ing the oanae of the fatality a conjecture.
Mr. Douglas was thereupon discharged, so

The sale �t Babylon, L.I., last week of the
orack racers and the pine of the yearlings
at the nursery stables of the late August
Belmont brought hosts of the most ' promi,;
nent turfinen in the oonntry out to Babylon
on Saturday. The event was generally
regarded as the most important sale of
racing horses that had occurred einoe the
Belling, of the Rancooas stable in 1886, and
the interest was correspondingly great.
With such flyers as Potomac, champion
2•year•old, the 'great Raoeland, Prince
Royal and La Tosca to be disposed of, it
was anticipated that the bidding would
be exceedingly lively and the prices paid
away np. For Potomac X50,000 was talked
of as about the right figure, while the other
cracks were put down at $10,000 to $20,000,
and expeotetions were aroused to a high
prtoh.
Raoeland; the famous bay gelding, and
winner..•of the '89 Saburban, was the first
lot offered. The pride wee started at
$3,000 by Fred Esohner, and from that
point the figure elowly went up to $6,500.
rite horse was on the point of bring
lingoked down to Father Bill Daley, when
Michael F. Dwyer - bid "the " figure -'up ate
$7,000, at which price he became the owner.
It ,was expected that at least $10,000 would
be realized. As Potomac was brought into
the ring the 'potes began to show more
interest and there was a cheer when
Esohner started the bidding st $15,000.
The bidding was slow, et $500 a jump, till
$20,000 was reached. Billy Lakeland,
.-C. Datsg, D.ve_C is Qn Esohner,
Jennings and Jimtny Rowe were among
the bidders. Then Mike, Dwyer jumped
in with a $1,000 rise; and wits seen with -
$1,00.0 better' by Rowe. Two more bids
brought-the.prioe.to $25,000. .At this_prioe
Potomac, one of the grandest horses ever
led into a sale ring, was knocked down to

price realized for .him was a greet
disappointment, and was dee to all

The Big Foot Fight. .
The following deepatch from Pine Ridge
Agency shows the steps which led up to
the attack and measure on Monday :
The first battalion . of the Seventh
Cavalry, consisting of Troops A, B, I and
K, under command of Major G..M. Whit.
-sideree rieed- ��nnded Hnee Creek at
dark on the evening ,of the ' 26th for the
purpose of intercepting and, it possible,
capturing Big Foot's band of Indians, who
recently eeoaped from Colonel Sumner on
the Cheyenne. River.. Early on the morn-
ing of the 27th scouts were sent out for the
purpose of locating the fugitives, and about
half -past 11 .a m. to -day a scout arrived
w.ith_ehe inteliigenee that Big Foot, with
150 men end 250 women and children, had
moved into oamp on the Porcupine Creek.,
Immediately the,bugle Bounded " Boots
and Saddles," end within eleven minutes
the battalion was filing through the bills
toward the Indians' camp on a gallon, and
in a very short time the troops were upon
the brow of a hill overshadowing the camp..
The troops formed in position in double
columns of fours, relaying to the right
and left, with two Hotchkiss gens in the
oentre, commended by Lieutenant Haw-
thorne.
The Indians' also drew up in line and for
a few mcments seemed undecided as to
whett action they. would take,' when finally
a delegation began moving toward the
troops ander a flag of truce. When Major
Whiteide ascertained that Big Foot was
not one of the number ho demanded that
he .should appear in person, where-
upon he was told that Big Foot was sick.
The major, however, insisted, and Big
Foot was finally brought to his presence in
a spring waggon together with bis wife,
each of whom was positively sick..
Big Foot said he was sick and denied
that he "had ever surrendered to Col. Sam•,
net or that he was even notified by that
commander that he, was to consider him
self and people as prisoners. Major
Whitside had Big Foot and his wife trans:
!erred to an ambulance, ordered all the
other Indians to dismount and ''form in
double columns in centre of the 'line of
troops; in ' which position they were es-
corted to Wounded Knee Creek and en
camped there -within a perfect cordon of
guards, with a battalion of Hotchkiss and
Gatlin:; guns conveniently overshadowing
