Jam*** R. Keene"? unbeaten Colin, the horse
which was thought to bo hopclossiy-brokcn down
on Thursday, went to the post In the rich Bel
mont Stakes of $25,000 at Helmont Park yester
day and won his fourteenth straight race, amid
m. perfect bedlam of cheers. He made all the
running and came swinging into the stretch
some three or four lengths in front. August
Belmont's Fair Play gave determined challenge,
however, fo that Notter dinar his whip and
shook up the son of Commando — Pastorella at
the la^t furlong pole, only to put it down when
the frreat colt responded. Then Colin began to
loaf again, and Nutter, mistaking: the regular
finish line for the real one, in front of the club
house for this particular race, almost brought
about the colt's defeat, ■■ he began to ease him
up. E. Dugaa. wide awake to the opportunity
to snatch the rich prize, drove Fair Play out.
and Colin only won by a scant half length, hut
vita pounds in reserve.
The *cen'- at the finish almost beggars de-
Fcription. Between 30.000 and SSwOOO person?,
out for a holiday, v.ere packed and Jammed In
the two big Elands, and each one flood up and
cheered and shouted and clapped, carried away
,v the desire to express full appreciation for the
victory of the king of thoroughbreds, which only
the day before was said to be lost to the turf.
When N«'tter brought Colin back to the stand
after pulling up the cheors broke out afresh.
and men waved their hats, while some went so
far as to throw theirs in the air. It was the
most remarkable greeting ever accorded to a
racehorse in this country, and attested full well
the wonderful popularity of the unbeaten son of
Commando.
The race was run over a sloppy track and in a
driving rain, and little could be seen of the
horses in the run around the tortuous S-shaped
track over which this particular race alone is
run. The horses looked like wraiths in the
mist and the colors could not be distinguished.
Even after the turn Into the straight was
made there was some question about whether it
■was Colin or some other horse racing along In
front. Once the colors of the vice-chairman of
the Jockey Club were recognized, however, the
cheering began, and it did not end until Colin
was safely 1 , : st the winning post, and then only
subsided long enough for those who wore shout-
Ing to get their breath. Fair Play fought on in
Earnest fashion and ran a brilliant race, but
King James and Robert Cooper, the other start
ers, were hopelessly beaten off.
-*»t^T« share of the rich prize was *l>».7i">.".
which bring* his total winnings up to $163.
441' 25. James R. Keene was at the track to see
Colin run. and for once he lost his wonted calm
and actually threw away bis umbrella in the es
citment of the nniah. as it looked for a moment
as if Colin would be beaten, in spite of the fact
t:.at he was hardly more than galloping through
the last few strides. Once the finish line was
passed, however. Mr. Keene was his old. quiet
pelf again, and accepted the congratulations of
Ma Meeds who crowded around him with
hardly a sign of elation. lie followed the horse
out to the paddock through the driving rain,
and stood around while Jimmy Howe super
intended the cooling out. He looked him over
with critical <>>- and turned away «atisfied. as
to all aj'i>earano«-s ("olin was as sound and hi*
legs were as clean as the day he was foaled.
In talking of the race Mr. Keene said that he
feared that Notter mistook the finishing point,
which might have cost Colin the race, and add*-d
that did not think the horse showed to his
best advantage in the mud. Jimmy Rom had
Instruct* i Nutter to keep Colin up to his work
to the end. and remarked afterward, when some
one suggest^d That it was a close shave: "Yes,
but not through any fault of the horse. He
could have gune another turn of the track."
The coming hack of Colin was almost as un«
expected and sensational as the announcement
last Thursday, that he would never race again.
Late Friday night the first intimation came that
the injuries which it had been feared would
mean his retirement had been found to be only
superficial. The news quickly spread that Colin
•was at the track and the big crowd waited with
eager interest to see if Mr. ECeene would add
him to the Belmont Stakes under the unfavor
able conditions. When his name was posted on
the jockey board this interest Increased, and
when he came out of the paddock gate on the
way to the post be was greeted with a cheer
that was second only to the one which bailed his
victory a few minutes later.
Mr. Keene decided to start Colin after a long
and careful examination yesterday morning.
wh*n there vat not the faintest sign of the
trouble which had caused so much concern only
two days before. The horse had been carefully
pointed fnr this particular race, and inasmtfeh as
he appeared io be in perfect condition Mr.
Keene determined that as a test was necessary
If CoMn was to T>e kept in training he might as
well take .'• chance of breaking hUn down per-
BBasjeafry in * net- rather than in a hard work
out While Coijn pulled up sound and cooled
out well. Mr. Keene said that he would not be
«intirely satisfied until to-morrow that the great
colt anas all right.
The victory of "~"iiri was not the only inter
esting feature of the day's sport, which brought
to an end the ;nost successful meeting ever held
by the Westchester Racing Association. The
teeming rain drove everybody to cover, and the
weather conditions wore dreary enough, but this
peem /.(l to have little or no effect on the good
humor of the crowd. •
John E. Maiden's Sir Martin, a son of Oprden
La3v st«=r:ing, won the eleventh running of
the National Stallion Race, after a long and
spirited drive with James R. K«ene's Selectman
and Mr. Ha<Mrn*s other starter. Joe Madden.
The race was worth J5.330 to the winner, and
Sir Martin won in a way to stamp him a good
colt. Harry Payne Whitney's pair. Bobbin and
Sandpiper, ran below expectations and were not
prominent at the finish.

It is not probable that Dr. E. Lask»r, the chess
champion, now In Europe, and r>r ?. Tarrasch. the
German champion, will com* together, although a
fund of $l/i»C> has been raised for the winner, with
J2.VI for the loser of the match, together with a spe
cial money prize provided by the city of Munich,
where the match was to have been played in the
City Hall. Dr. Leaker considers the offer made by
Munich and the German Chess Association too
email, and he will not meet the German champion
on those terms. The latter, on the other hand, has
announced his readiness to play under such condi
tions. His only stipulation was that the match be
played somewhere in Germany, because, being- by
profession a physician, he could not leave the coun
try for a protracted period. Dr. Lasker is reported
to have held out for the sum of $5,000 a side if th«
match were played In Germany.

The first period of play ended in favor of th»

goals to 1.
Notwithstanding the driving rain, a fair sized
crowd watched the contest. The turf was exceed
ingly slippery, and the players had great difTlculty
ln keeping their feet. Th% contest was even, and
the spectators were kept In an uproar by the spir
ited work.
Crefct-nt took tbe aggressive as soon as the game
started, and inside of the first minute of play
O'Rourke made a very pretty goal. The fame
player made the second point, scoring- after fifteen
minutes of spirited play. Before the half endsd
McSloy. the clever home man of the visitors, scored
for Toronto.
The Canadians showed far more aggressiveness
during the second period. McSloy found the net
after rive minutes of dose play, and noon after
Rainore broke the tie and scored the winning goal
by a clever thot.

WYLIE GRANT TO PLAY ABROAD.
With the intention of competing in the English
lawn tennis championship and the Olympics, the
American national indoor title holder, Wylle C.
Grant, sailed aboard the Caledonia, of the Anchor
Line, yesterday for England. The American expert
said that he would first piny In an Irish champion
