FAIR PLAY'S GOOD RACE
WIXS THE REALIZATION.
Sir Martin Beats Helmet in Second
Half of Double Event.
August Be-lmonfs Fair Play won the twentieth
running of the Lawrence Realization at Ph<*»p*head
Bay yesterday and earned $17,360 for his owner. In
the absence of the uneaten Colin and OH. the
Brooklyn Handicap manner, which unfortunately
" for Mr. Keen? wore not able to po to the po^t. Fair
Play stood out as a sure winner and was quoted
at 1 to 4. The son of Hast inp.— Fairy Gold lived
up to expectations and wen easily from John E*
Maddens Kin* James in the jrooi time of 2:46 1-5
tor the mile and flw furlongs, which, by the way.
■was just a second behind the record made by Afri
cander in 1908.
August Belmont's Antmmm was scratched from th«
Realization, but Alfred Noble was added, so that
four horses went to the post Any Illusions Mr.
Harrison may have had about Alfred Noble were
quickly dispelled, for. Rfter breaking In front and
making the running for an eighth of a mile, he
dropped out of it and eventually was beaten off.
Dorante bolted as the barrier went up. but J. Lee
rushed him up to his field in the first quarter and.
pom*; to the front, made the running up the back
stretch end around the far turn. Dorante had
<ju!te enough, however, at the end of a mile and a
quarter, and turning fcr home E. Dupran sent Fair
Play to the front, and kept him there to the end.
King James mada a brave but fruitless effort to
•wear the Hastings colt down through the stretch,
I ut had to be content with second money.
Fair Play has boen a consistent performer all the
'year. He was beaten a narrow margin by Colin in
the Belmont SuUses. ran second to Celt in the
Brooklyn Handicap and third to Ballot and King
James In the Suburban Handicap. He won the
Brooklyn Derby and the rich Coney Island Jockey
Club Stakes, and yesterday sot a further seal on
bis greatness by winning one of the most coveted
fixtures of tie American turf. Jack Joyncr. who
trains the celt for Mr. Belmont. expressed confi
dence In the horse before the race and showed keen
pleasure after the victory, nan particularly as he
had cabled Mr. BeSsßent after his success in the
Coney Island Jockey Club Stakes that Fair Play
would be 'Tiglu there" for the Realization—
prophecy which turned out to be true.
I It -was the last day of the spring meeting of the
Coney Island Jockey Club, and the card was of a
Jrind to attract the biggest crowd of the meeting,
•with the exception of Saturday and Suburban
Handicap Dii.v. I"ully »en thousand persons made
the Journey M the track, and were well repaid in
more ways than one, as the racing was not only of
the best, but the wrather. thanks to a breeze off
the ocean, was b^ari.ble ar,d in striking contrast to
the torrid heat in the city. On the way home
from the track many repressions of regret, were
heard that the meeting was at an end. as the track
is deservedly popular, and now more than ever, on
Account of the liberality of the Coney Island
Jockey Club In maintaining its stakes at full value
In the face of adverse conditions.
Joan E. .Mad.i' ii .< Sir Martin added another rich
nuke to his credit wht-n he won the second half of
the Double Event, of a guaranteed" value of ?:•■••••.
beating the best two-year-olds in training, with
the possible exception of Fitz Herbert. Mellsande
and Trance, Air. Madilen won both the first and
•econd half of the Ijoubl^ Event, . at did not earn
the bonus of ?2,0"0 offered by the Coney Island
Jockey Club '■' both races -were won by the same
horee. Fayette won the first half, and Mr. Madden
declared to win with i. •-. yesterday, but Fayette
met •with some interference in the <-arly part, and
It was left for Sir Martin to come on to beat James
R. Keene's Helmet.
Mr. Ksmsm was sorely disappointed that Helmet
did not win. The colt had worked six furlongs
for the race in better than 1:13. and Jimmy R >■ •■.
his trainer, and Mr. Kccne were both Confident
that the son of Disguise would turn the tables on
the Madden pair. Mr. K<*-rj.- seemed to think
that Xotter had made too much '■• '' of Helmet in
the early part, and it looked as If the boy was a
bit impatient, as he took Helmet to the front at
|\ the start anj opt-ned up a gap of four or five
fj lengths on his Hold. In rounding the elbow Helmet
* looked a sure winner, but when Sir Martin chal
lenged at the last furlong pole he quickly capitu
lated, either from shec-r exhaustion or a lack of
courage, tn that the Ogdf-n 00M came away to win
rather easily. Fayette finished a respectable third,
and appeared to be running stronger than the two
horses in front, of him at the end. Harry Payne
"Whitnry's Bobbin asel with some early interfer
ence and could not do himself full justice.
John E. Madden was highly elated at the •vic
tory of Sir Martin, and in speaking of the race
eaid: "There .- one of the best colts I ever bred
md raced, and I may be tempted to send him
abroad to try for the English Derby next year.
Fayette Is Just as good, however, in my opinion.
He was running on at the end, and it was no dis
grace to have the pair split by such a great colt
as 1 believe Helmet to be. Lee. who rode Sir
Martin, waited for Fayette as long as he dared, or
I think my colt would have gone to the front
sooner."
Sir Martin has now won the National Stallion
Race, the Great Trial and the second half of the
Double Event among other races, while he ran
second to his stable companion in the Tremont and
the first half of the Double Event. In spite of the
fact that Mr. Madden has declared a preference
for Fayette on several occasions, the majority of
horsemen think that Sir Martin Is the better of
the two.
Frank Farr^H's Grappie made a new track record
for one mile and a furlong on the turf in beating
Tourenne and five others in the fifth race. He ran
the distance in 1:52 2-5. which -was two-fifths of a
second fatter than the previous mark, made by
Bedouin a few days ago. Tourenne made the early
running in the race yesterday, but Grapple wore
him down in the stretch and won easily by two or
three lengths.
James R. K'-ene's Peter Quince beat a lot of
good sprinters in the *>econd race, including
Dreamer, Roseben and King Cobalt. Roseben
made the running for six furlongs, but the extra
furlong was too much, and he stopped so suddenly
that Peter Quince, which was under the whip when
straightened out for home, quickly went to the
front to win by a safe margin from Dreamer.
The clubhouse inclosur* was particularly well
patronized yesterday, among those In attendance
being James R. Keene. Harry Payne Whitney,
Herman B. Duryea, H. K. Knapp. F. R. Hitch
cock. Thomas Hitchcock, jr.. Schuyler I* Par
»ons and "Walton C. Percy.
Notter beaded the list of winning Jockeys for
the meeting with twenty victories to his credit.
He -was closely pressed by E. Dugan. who rode
eighteen winners. Lee was third, with eight vic
tories, while McCarthy had seven and Garner and
iliHer six each.

Philadelphia, July 6.-The earn© old story was
repeated here to-day and the Yankees were beaten
by Philadelphia, the score being 6 to 6. Although
the Highlanders got more hits than their oppo
nents they could not turn them into enough runs
to win. Philadelphia played a miserable fielding
Same.. Eddie Collins alone being guilty of three
misplays. New York's two errors, however, were
more costly than the five made by Connie Mack's
men. #
Smiling Al Orth was Kid Blberfeld's selection
to win the final game of this disastrous trip, the
Yankees starting a long session on the hilltop to
morrow. The big spitball artist went along for
three innings without trouble, but In the fourth
slipped a man over the plate. As the Yankees
had previously taken a 2 to 0 lead, it did not
look large, but he was pulled out in the beginning
of the sixth and Billy Hogg cent In.
A series of hits nave the Yankees three runs in
the sixth inning. Viekers then retired in favor of
Coombs, who held the visitors safe for the rest
of the game. The eighth Inning saw the final
downfall of the Yankees. An error, a base on
balls and two singles did the trick, three runs
being registered by Connie Macks men.
The Yankee* seem to have lost all their old dash
End abandon and played listlessly to-day.

SUPERBAS BEAT CUBS.
Brooklyn Helps New York in Hard
Fight for Lead.
Chicago. July 6.-The world*, champion? fell a
prey to Brooklyn in the first game of a series here
to-day, and the Cubs are now hard pressed for
second place in the National League race by the
New York Giants. The score was 6to 4. Heavy
hitting by the Snperbas and two costly errors by
Chicago tell the story In few words. The Cuba
outbatted Brooklyn twelve hits to eight, but the
Superbas made long drives when they were most
needed.
Chicago made a bold bid to pull the game out in
the second half of the seventh Inning, and scored
three runs on singles by Durbln and Tinker, a
three-bagger by Marshall, who batted for Fraser,
and a single by Sheckard.
A two-base hit by Bergen and thr**-baggers by
Burch and Hummel gave the visitors two runs in
their half of this inning, which turned out enough
to give them the game. Wilhelm replaced Me-
Intyre in the box for Brooklyn, after the Cubs had
scored a run In the sixth inning, and when the
latter wakened Bell was called on.

Cincinnati. July 6.-Steadily climbing up the
ticklish pennant ladder, the Giants used Cincin
nati as a stepping stone here to-day and won the
first game of a series by the SCOW of 2 to 1. The
New Yorkers never played better ball, and sup
ported Christy Mathewson with the same speed
and steadiness that have marked their victorious
playing of the last two weeks. The Giants 'Were
gleeful when the score of the Brooklyn-Chicago
game was posted, and it was figured that the
Giants were practically on even terms with the
Cubs, only three points now separating th« teams
for second place. John McGraw says he expects
to clean up on this trip, and to be in a better
position than when he left home.
Four hits -were all the Ked J>-gs could gather off
Matty and not one of these would have counted
In the run getting had not Al Bridwell made a
wild throw to the plate after Kane had tripled in
the first inning. Kane, by the way. was the only
player to get two hits off the big twirler. Six of
theOhioans fanned the air in vain. As a rule, they
were helpless while at bat. and knocked puny little
grounders which were handled without effort by
the Giant lnflelders.
Ewing pitched high class ball, and under ordinary
circumstances he would have won his game, but
not against Mathewson. The Giants made their
two runs in the third and fifth innings. Bridwell
■cored the first on a base on balls, followed by a
single by Tenney and a double by Larry Doyle.
Tenney made the other when he got a free pass,
took second on a passed ball, third on Doyle's
single and home on a double steal. Schlel throw
ing wildly. ' ...
Larry Doyle kept up his brilliant work by which
he enthused the Polo Ground fans last week. New
York made six hits and Doyle got three of them,
one a two-bagger. Besides his great work with
the stick, Larry capered about second base In
clever style, making Jive pretty assists and three
put-outs/ He has fattened his batting average ,
materially in the last two games.
To show how futile the home players' efforts
were when at bat. It la interesting to note that
twenty-two put-outs were made by the New York
Infield. Tenney and Bresnahan getting the credit
for eighteen of them.
It gave the Giants great joy to beat Cincinnati
here to-day, for this was the beginning of the bad
trip two months ago. This is the place Matty
took a tumble, but he got his revenge this after
noon.
McOraw left here to-day to see how much of a
prize Marquard. the new pitcher, for whom it i»
eaid the New York Baseball Club paid $11,000 to
Indianapolis, i«.

GOOD ROADS THE SLOGAN,
Interest in Convention To Be Held
at Buffalo.
The jrood roads and legislative eon\-entlon will

ervation of Improved highways. Its purpose Is
educational, and its convention*, which have been
held from year to year, have been notable gntln-r
lngs. resulting in the spread of much valuable in
formation and In uniformity of action by road
makers throughout the country. It is peculiarly
interested in the procurement of ptate aid for
good roads; indeed, that is its slogan.
I^ast year at the convention of the American
Rond Makers' Association, at Pittsburg, there was
a large attendance of road experts from all over
th« country, many of them being sent by the irt;ite
Governors and Legislatures, and the proceedings
of tho convention gave a great Impetus to the

In connection with this feature of the conven
tion it may be added that the state highway in
spectors under State Engineer Skene of New York
will meet at Buffalo and take part in the delib
erations of the convention, and also that the en
gineers of tha State Highway Department of
Pennsylvania have been called to Buffalo by Com

A resident of Highland Mills. N. V.. has written
a letter to the editor of The Tribune in which he
terms a "most deliberate fabrication" the notice
sent out last week by the Automobile Club of
America to Its members against speed traps, under
which classification was mentioned the town of
Highland Mills. The notice ivad that "a speed
of not more than ten miles an hour through the
main part of Central Valley and Highland Mi is
Is insisted upon, and violators are. finttl. There is
a decided hostility to automobilists in these two
towns." The notice was printed in The Tribune
of last Thursday.
The writer asks that his name be kept out of
the paper, but says that he will have no objec
tion to The Tribune giving it to any individual who
may ask for it. He also Invites any person who
would care to Investigate to visit Highland Mills
and Judge for himself. The letter follows:
Your article under the hea<l of "Timely Auto
Topics" In Thursday's paper is a most deliber
ate fabrication, and as a citizen of Highland Mills,
a friend to prudent automobile drivers him! in a
position to know about this matter 1 ask you to
kindly correct the article in the columns of your
paper and forward a copy marked to the Automo
bile Club of America, at my expense.
To begin with, the stations were not where the
party claimed them to lit- in either village^ The
speed at which. automobiles were held was twenty
five miles an hour or faster through the main or
thickly settled part of Central Valley and twenty
two miles an hour through the thickly settled paTl
of Highland Mills, by the postotfice, bridge and
cross roads.
Several automobiles travelling at twenty miles
an hour through these villages were not held, but
every driver who exce«Hlo«l the speed agreed upon
by the authorities wan hel«l without considera
tion, even some of the townspeople b> ing fined.
The special police for this work were gentlemen
and treated the occupants of cars as such, al
though they were called the most vile names by
a woman occupant of a car.
There are large display boards along the road
approaching both villages from north and south
stutlncr a speed of tiftr-:i miles un hour, bat, *<
be fair and vindicate all doubt, the authorities
have not held <mv cor that was within seven miles
an hour of the law. This mad»» the low limit of
twenty-two miles an hour, ami any man who will
drive a car through a thickly settled village at that
speed or faster has no regard for hi* follow man's
life or limb, not to mention horses and other ani
mals.
If car drivers do net care to be law abiding and
drive their cars through these villages at twenty
miles or less, and if the Automobile Club at Amer
ica does not wish its members to be law abiding,
then I feel that Highland Mills and Central Valley
do not want them, but I know that the Automobile
Club and all Intelligent automobile drivers will
agree with me that twenty miles an hour through
a village where there are children and other ob
structions In the narrow road is plenty fast enough
to run a car, and on sharp curves much slower.
There is no hostility to automobiles going through
our town; in fact, we welcome them and try to
treat them well. The people are courteous, and in
return they ask the same from the automobile
drivers, but. finding among them some road bogs
who will take all the road you give them and ask
for more and run at a greater rate of speed than
most of the steam trains run through our villages
and committing other nuisances too numerous to
mention, you couldn't expect a town board to do
anything else but take some action to stop the nui
sance, and the sooner that automobile drivers know
that they have got to use reason and judgment in
going through the town of Woodbury the better it
will be for them.
MISS WAGNEK FORCED TO DEFAULT.
Miss Carrie B. Neely was not called on to defend
her championship title In the Middle States lawn
tennis tournament yesterday, as Miss Marie Wag
ner, her challenger, was obliged to default. Miss
Wagner, while running for a ball on the courts
of the Orang-e Lawn Tennis Club, at Mountain Sta
tion, N. J., where the tournament has been in
progress, slipped on the turf and strained her
ankle so badly that it was impossible for her to
play the match. She had defeated Miss Scott in
the final round at 6—l, 2— €. B—6.
The unfortunate happening robbed the meeting
of its closing feature, as the committee would not
allow a postponement, and recorded the default.
Miss Wagner was greatly disappointed, as she had
defeated Miss Neely in the women's national cham
pionship tournament at Philadelphia.

[By Cable to Th« Tribune.]
Cardiff, July 6.— In the first days play in the in
ternational cricket match betVeen the Gentlemen
"of Phila.Ulr.hla ami South Wales, the Welshmen
gained tha advantage, bflng &4 runs ahead on the
first innings. Th«» feature of th« day's play was
the capital bowling done by a quartet of trun
iVors, two for the visitors and a 11*« number for
ri.nit:i Wales. J. B. King was in fine form and
his fast bowling proved dpstmctive. while H. V.
Hordom, although betng hit freely, used his change
of pace to some purpose. Nash and Crebcr were
equally good for the home players.

No Cut in Stakes for Fall Meeting
at Sheepshead Bay.
The Coney Island Jockey Club has decided to
make little or no change in the programme for its
fall meeting, and announced yesterday the supple
mentary closing of entries on July 15 of the follow
ing rich stakes:
The Flatbush. for two-year-olds, with flO.noo
added, of an estimated value of $17,000; the" Great
Eastern Handicap, for three-year-olds, wl/U $7..">»:
the Autumn, for two-year-olds, of an estimated
value 0/ 55.6Q0; the" Flight, for all ages, with J3.000
added and an, estimated value of j»>,f»)O. and the
September, for three-year-olds, with KM added,
with an estimated value of $6,000.
The horsemen in the paddock yesterday hailed
this announcement with delight, and only good
words could be heard for the Coney Island Jockey
Club and its liberal policy.
Horsc-mtn and racegoers were also interested in
the announcement by one of the officials of the
Saratoga Racing Association that a go«l response
had been made to a notice .-•• nt out to members
and boxholden for the reservation of boxes for
the midsummer meeting at Saratoga. Judging by
the number of applications received there will be
little or no falling off hi attendance over that of
previous years.
