It was not ladies' day,but one would have boon pardonably mis taken in supposing it was when he •ievved the array of bright, interesting Excited feminine faces in the long row of boxes, ami many of them were there j to back their judgment. Indeed, the ladies have been unusually fortunate as a rule, and several &t. Anthony bill belles have won money enough for a | sealskin this fall. But today will be ladies' day again, and woe to the bookmakers, if the fair ones are as fortunate as they have been the past days of the week. . The handicap was somewhat of a dis appointment owing to the fact that all the bang tails that had entered drew out save Jugurtha and Eli Kindig. This gave the former a tolerably easy thing of it. although had Freeman saved Eli ! for the finish instead of forcing him to i extend himself aquarterof a mile away, the result might have been different. i Kindig is a spurter, and Jugurtha is I quite the opposite- lie is a staid colt j and a stayer, but hen it comes to flying ■ over a short distance lie is not in it. As | it was, Hindi g made the finish excitingly j close. There w^rn two surprises yesterday.

Coriune v s?emed" to be the prime favorite with horsemen and was out to win, but there can be no ques- 1 tion that pretty Alice was also due to j win if she could. It was a driving and • sensational finish, and the same can be said of two other events. Issie O, backed mostly by stable boys, because they knew she was as line as silk, beat out Ed Greenwood, a red hot favorite, and tli?n Torrent defeated Forest and Goldstone in order by a nose and a . length respectively. As a whole, the day was a delight. There was but one i real walkover, and that was won by the great Van liuren. and he ran. at pro hibitive odds in the belting. The train service is improving, much to the pleasure of tha patrons of. the track, For the first time during the meeting the train was landed in time to j witness the first event without running ' post haste from station to grand stand, and in the evening the train did not wail for darkness- to close in before re turning. li this service is continued the attendance will be much larger. lUmul IS Surprises "l.m. Corinne Kinney had the call among the "knowing ones" and the betting was pretty fast oil her, and the sus picion obtained that she was out for the parse. However, Alice I) was the general favorite, and some money went in on Van because cf his run the other day, while lronrod found abundance of friends in the. place betting. Maud a was not well thought of and she carried but little money at 20 to 1, and even greater odds at times: Crab Cider was backed on a tip at Sto 1, but there was no playing on the others. Alice D got a fine start and began by showing the way rrom the flag. Maud B came second and with a rush was on nearly even terms on the back stretch with Crab Cider third. Around the final turn Crab Cider ran his length. He spurted and came alter Maud so fast that a cry went up ah along the line, "Crab Cider will win but it wasn't in him. Alice I) still held the coign of vantage as the stretch was entered, and Maud B, running handsomely, came third. It was a whiuping finish. Maud B was brought up by Thorpe with whalebone and spur and won by a half length over Corinne Kinney, who fol lowed her with dogged persistency. Alice D came in third. >i>imai:t.

Lakeland started at 2to 1 and finished at U to 5. while pretty Issie O started at 8 to 1 and ran up to 20 to 1, and was only played, in fact, by the stable boys and a few watchful speculators who had an idea of her prowess, and her condition. Aggie X's speed enlisted confidence. and she was backed both straight and for place at .s to 1 and 2to 1. But her vicious disposition drove many who ap preciated her speed to cut her for other performers. Issie O took the advantage of the start, but Ed Greenwood displaced her. and Lakeland ran third. There was no change until the stretch was reached, when Issie O came, giving weight, too fast for the field, and hal a hot battle with Greenwood, making a sensational finish, winnins by a neck, Lakeland coming in third. Aggie X bolted a fur long down the track, and fell over tiie fence into the enclosure, and was pretty badly injured, but Chambers, who had the vixenish mount, escaped unhurt. SUMMAKY.

The Ryan hotel handicap was rather uninteresting because all had scratched save Jugurtlia and Eli Kindle. The betting was timid and fretful. Every body seemed to feel that it should be Jugurtha's race. Eli Kindig has a bad fco . and cannot run a winning race airainst a good horse. The betting was 3 to 5 and 3 to 2 respectively.and Jugur tha remained the favorite to the post. Jusfiirtha made the post around the first mile, with Eli running, well up, and when a quarter of a mile only re i mained to be run Freeman used the j whip and Kindisr shot .past and led by ■ three lengths into the stretch.

Last evening Bingham played proba bly the most difficult game to defeat that' has been played thus far in the Globe amateur billiard tournament. He made the 100 points in twenty-six innings and he managed to keep the balls so wide that Foley scarcely had a "set-up" in the entire game. The result was Foley in the twenty-six innings of his play only counted 56 points. Foley won the bank and started off like a four-time' winner, leaving Bingham at the post, as it were, but Bingham worked away conscientiously and turned the first fifty in the lead. He did not let up until he had his last button scored. Biugham played two games last even ing and won them both handily. His other rival was Hatch, who stopped at 78 points, in this game Bingham's high runs. were 13 and 11. and in the other they were 13, 11 and 10, and Foley's high runs were 14, 13 and 10. Estes and Wilder had a hard battle. Neither played in form, and it required forty nine innings to complete the game. Eates made"his 100 to Wilder' 93. This evening a big card will be pre sented, and the devotees will see Dougherty, the Minneapolis candidate, who has wone every game played thus far. meet one of the speediest handicap allowance candidates for the cup—Dick inson. Doubtless a big crowd will come over from Minneapolis, for the tournament is attracting as much at tention in the Flour City as it is in St. Paul. Capen will also play Snvder this evening and Summers will meet Ron ald. The latter will be a feature game, as neither has yet won a game.

Trouble. . [HJi Earnings of the Milwaukee- Chairman Walker Calls ■7: a Meeting*. Chicago, Aug. 3.— Plans are under consideration by the directors of the Chicago Great Western Railway com pany, lessee of the Chicago, St. Paul & Kansas City, whereby it is proposed to extend the system by building a. line to Omaha. Such an extension lias been talked of for more than a year, but prior to the reorganization of the com pany and the increase in the capital stock, the financial condition of the road was such that Chairman Stickm-y did not see his way clear to an early realiza tion of his dream. Now with fresh mill ions at his command it is understood that the line to Omaha will certainly be con structed, and that it is the "intention of i the management to have it completed and open for traffic lone before the opening of the . world's fair. In fact, the present plan is to have it in opera tion as early as next Christmas if ar rangements can be made to begin the work without delay. It is proposed tnat the new line shall connect with the present system at a point about fifteen mile* south of Dcs Moines. This will necessitate the building of about ninety miles of road, and when completed the Chicago Great Western will have the short line between Chi cago and Omaha, the whole length of it being a little over 480 miles. If the present plans are carried out, it is prob able that the company will use the terminal facilities of the Nebraska Cen tral road at Omaha. This part of the "programme is not settled as yet, but the fact that some of the Nebraska Central people were in Chicago a few days ago, and in consultation with officials of tno Chicago Great Western, gives color to the report that negotiations have been commenced. LUMBER KATK PROBLEM. The Eau Claire Kate Causing a Lot or Trouble. Chicago, Aug. — Chairman Midg ley. of the Western Freight association, who has been attending a meeting of the joint rate committee in New York, returned today. While in the East he went to Washington to lay the lumber rate troubles of the Western roads be fore the interstate commerce commis- i sion, and to request a suspension of the j order reducing the rate from Eau Claire to the Missouri river. It happened, however, that but one member of the commission was in Washington, the rest being absent for indefinite periods, and the suspension of the order could not be granted at once. Mr. Midgley was assured that the commission : was not disposed to take any unreasonable ground in the matter, and if proper ap plication were made a rehearing of the case would most certainly be granted..; I Calls a Meeting. „'.. Chicago, Aug. 3.— Chairman Walker has called a meeting of the commis sioners of the Western Traffic associa tion for next week to consider, among other things, the refusal of the Mis souri Pacific to divert traffic to compet ing lines when ordered -to do so.
