Suspension Removed and Then Quickly Renewed. a sew phase of the Me'.vin Sheppard sus pension case developed late yesterday after- Ba a at an executive sessiaii of the Military Athletic League, held at '<* downtown club. Upon the advice of C. H. Luaeo—h, counsel for the league, the previous suspension was removed, and after that the league prompt ly suspended the Irish American Athletic Club's crack all over again. Mr. 1.-.s mnb explained that the consti tution of the Military Athletic League did not give that body power to affiliate with a division; consequently the recognition of the suspension handed down by the Mili tary Athletic League of Philadelphia was ::>~a:. As the matter now stands Bl eppard is in definitely suspended by the Military Ath letic League, which has an alliance with the Amateur Athletic Union. It was said last night that the Irish-American Athletic Club, which is Oghting Sheppard's battle, will await the action of the registration committee this afternoon before making ■aether move.

Ko yorß Wins *Relay 'Race Brooklyn Team Beaten by a Yard in Intercity Con test at St. Anthony Games. The N>iv York team won the intercity relay race at the Knights of St. Anthony games in the 13th Regiment Armory, in Brooklyn, last night, defeating teams rep resenting Brooklyn and Philadelphia. .New York earned the verdict over Brooklyn in the last relay by the scant margin of one yard. On the New York team were Edward?, Richmond. McEntee and Epan. -while Brooklyn was represented by Dorland, Bacon. Robbing and Roscnberger, the. men running as named. The distance was on* mile, and Dor'and grained ten yards on Edwards in the first Quarter, but Richmond sue reeded In cut ting this down to practically nothing in the next 440 yards. After running an eighth of a mil* evenly with his man HelSSulM let out one of his famous sports and gained right yard* on Robbing. This gave Eean a handsome advantage over the redoubt able Rosenberser to start th* final quarter. and the excitement became intense as the Brooklyn man beean to lessen the pap. Be failed by the narrowest of margins, however The tim? of 5>:2?S-r» was consider ably Flower than that hung out by th« New Tork team in the Pastime games last Friday. Th* Philadelphia runners were fairly out classed, and the. last man in the. final relay struggied home many yards in the rear. George Bonhas won a capital race from scratch in th- three-mile handicap run. The Irish-American athlete took command at the second mile, and won as he pleased in the fast time of 14391-5. Robert Clougl'en, the Former Indoor cham pion, started from scratch in the second heat of the 100-yard dash, but -^as shut o-;'. The Irish-American star r<*\?r seemed to s?t going, ar.d finished yards back, yet it was announced that his time was 102-S seconds. The heat was won in 10 1-5 see oadjS. There was a special prize for tiie best time by a scratch man in this event. Rosenberger, of the Iris.-A merican club, MADDEN THE BUYER Gets Fit- Herbert. -'The Best Horse in the Country.'' It developed yesterday that John E. Mad den, the master of Hamburg Place and one of the shrewdest horsemen In the country, was the buyer of Kits Herbert for 54<>.0f>0 on Tuesday, and not Charles Kohlcr. as re ported. It appears that Frank Taylor, the broth er-in-law el Mr. Hildreth, had an option on the great eon of Morganatic for a bVyer, said to be Mr. Kohler. and that when the latter failed to exercise it Mr. Madden stepped in an i bought the Sub urban dinner of last year, and the top weight in the bis sprin? handicaps for the coming: season.. Mr. Madden, ho is in New York for the Bile of light hanve*? borsea in Madison Square Garden, s=aid yesterday, in speaking of his new purchase. • It i? seldom that a horse of the quality of Fit/. Herbert is on the market, and when I paw a chance to buy what I con sider the best horse in America, if not the best horse in the world, for racing and breeding purposes, I was g!ad to accept it even at $40,000. which may be considered a b:g price, considering' the unsettled condi tions.

JOHNSOX "HARD UP" Persuades Judge to Reduce His Bond to 'Appear. Jack Johnson, the negro heavyweight pugilist, who is matched to fight Jim Jeffries on July 4, held the centre of the stape. in Part I of General Sessions yester day, when he pleaded not guilty to the in dictment charging him with having as saulted Norman Pindar, a small negro, in a West 3M street saloon on January 20. Incidentally he did some tall hustling try in? to raise the £.500 bail fixed by Judge Mulqueen for his apearane- for trial. De=pite the talk of the large figures anent world's championship battles, of the money flowing in from theatrical engagements and the diamonds, Johnson couldn't £aise th« desired amount. "Ah just can't raise that $2.00i>," he de jectedly reported to Judge Mulqueen, "but ah have $1,500 here ob man own money ah '■■ 111 put up to appear." "It wasn't so easy as you thought to got J2.-VYV 1 remarked Judge Mulqueen. "No, sah," relied the" defendant, "but $1,500 of mah own money is as good as $5,000 of some one's else to make sure that ah will appear here." "I can't see your reasoning." laughed Judge Mulqueen, "but with the consent of the District Attorney the bail* is reduced to $1,500." District Attorney Whitman, who was in the courtroom at the time, con sented, and Johnson bowed, grinned a golden toothed erin, thanked the court, and shuffled off to deposit his bankroll with the bail clerk. It was at the morning session, however, that Johnson .^hon» for the edification of a throng of negro admirers and the amuse ment of other spectators In the courtroom. "For the Lord"' he ejaculated, but was Interrupted by his counsel. James Nugent, and his friend, "Baron" Wilkins, when As» sistant District Attorney Jacoby asked the court to increase the original bail bond of $: no to (10.000. "I ask the court to consider that while the defendant at the bar did not use any deadly weapon, his fists are dangerous weapons," said Mr. Jacoby. "There's a physician's certificate attached to those papers which inform* your honor that if Johnson had struck Pindar with his fist he would have broken the man's jaw," declared Mr. Nugent in reply. "This man Johnson has plenty of money,"' persisted Mr. Jacoby. in reply to Judge Mul queen's objection that $1,000 seemed enough, "and he will have no trouble raisin? it. lie is travelling a great part of the time, and it is possible that the fear of more than six months* incarceration would in duce him to forfeit a small sum. He wants to be at large on the Fourth of July, that"3 certain." Johnson seemed to like the word "in carceration." coupled with # the Fourth of July," perhaps, and there was more aurif erous shining from his front teeth. On hi way out of the courtroom John son was served with papers in a .suit for 190,408 brought by Pindar because of the alleged assault. With a laugh. Johnson threw the papers on the floor. His lawyer picked them up and acknowledged service in the name of his client. POLICE LOSE BOUT. Effort to Raid Boxing Club Goes for Nothing. Inspector Walsh and Captain Thompson, of the West 6Sth street station, planned a raid on the Sharkey Athletic Club, which is conducted by Jim Buckley, at Broadway and i»th street, last night, but the "mem bers" successfully blocked the efforts of the police, and the bouts were pulled off. Only one policeman managed to gain en trance to tho clubhouse, and when he showed himself he was promptly thrown cut of a window. "Smiling Dick" Walsh, the inspector, had his plans all prepared to spoil the enter tainment, and Patrolman Christian suc ceeded In getting past the gatekeeper. He was to give the signal when the first bout was put on, but when he jumped into the ring and tried to arrest the principals and referee th* himds of th* promoters lef frif* and hi party l*-ft for th« gazi la~t nljht. REOGH TAKES TITLE WINS BY MANY BALLS. Hucston Fights Hard, but Loses Pool Championship. Jerome B. Kfogli. of Rochester. Is th* world's pool champion. The courtly but self-contained player regained the honors, which he has held several time*, by de feating the holder. Thomas A. Hueslon. or St. Louis, by 600 balls to 546 The €nd ing of the three nights of play for the, championship trophy. |I,#M and a sleje let of $250 was witnessed by a crowd that packed the New York Theatre concert hall. Keogh led throughout the entire deriding block of 200 balls, or. actually. 130 balls for him, as hi? total stood at 410 for the two opening sessions of the match. On the night's play Keogh beat H'iC3ton by l? 0 balls to 175. Again a total of twenty-six frames wa* necessary, and each broke, the. pyramid thirteen times. Keogh's best runs were 32 and 24 balls, to 23 and 20 for Huston. Six scratches materially set the winner back, while two only were mad« by the ]n<;«.r. Keogh led Hueston each night, and throughout played th«» better pool. Speculator.? seemed to have control of th« tickets as the crowd assembled. Even so, the l.all was well filled as Hueston and Keo£h began" playing, and wa? 8008 packed from floor to pallery. Th? position of ref eree fell to Maurice Paly, as there, had been some opposition to J«re WetobeTf Right from the beginning the defending champion displayed that nervousness which had led to his fallinsr behind on the pre vious night's play. He brought off difficult shot*, only to miss the straight, easy drive?. Until near the. end be was uncertain, and his position work anything but up to the standard of which he is capable. On the other hand. Keoph was steady. He was lynx-eyed in discerning the possibilities of the ball-to-ball problems, which he played with considerable Baecess, Then his hand ling of his cue was distinctly the more pleasing. It was gentle, yet firm, and in contrast with Hucston's slashing jabs. The best features of Hueston's work was exemplified by his pretty combining of ki?s shots when in poor position. He was also good on his lon- shots, the length of th» table. At dead ball shooting he was also good, but he failed to make it effectual as a position asset. Bueston made the opening break of ttM pyramid. Although it was poorly don*. Keogh had to follow with safety. The champion then found a combination and cleared the table with little effort. Hues ton also assayed the first touch-up In the second frame. He executed a pretty ki>3 shot for the upper corner from Keogh's safety. That was all. however, as Keogh, cleared the table on his turn. Keogh mad* the initial break in the third frame. Safety play predominated in this frame. Cleverness in discerning coinbinations made it possible for Huesion to add four teen balls, although it necessitated three turns at th* table. Two piece.-: of carelessness on the part of the champion allowed Keogh to clear the table in the following frame. It furnished a comedy of errors. Hueston missed an easy shot to the side pocket by inches. Then Keosh caused the. crowd to groan a3 he scratched by pocketing the cue ball. With all of the balls before him the champion again missed a side shot. The next turn was "pie** for Keogh, who cleared the table, and increased his lead. In the succeeding frame, likewise Hueston proved careless when he appeared to have the entire collection of balls at his com mand, and the dapper little Rochester man nsain cleaned up.
