The grizzled old Jehu who handled the ribbons over the pair of akutPH which rauled the New YorUa from the hotel Hanover to the grounds was Just about turning Into Thirteenth street and follow lag that thoroughfare to the park when John Montgomery shrieked, "ill, there, driver, don't turn Into that hoodoo street, ne've had tough ei.ar.igh luck so far with out flying In the teeth of fate and using u Jonah numbered street like Thlr Ufnth." Superstitious? Well, you couldn't blune Ward. lie didn't care to have loo many things to overcome, und a hoodoo like thirteen was apt to give the team extremely o Id feet.

"Silence ai.d run" Jim, ni they called Stafford, i.aa right In fettle and anxious to play, too. The sky wus kDinowhat cloudy this afternoon and the attendance fell off nulci Lilly. The (Hants meant to offer the stiff est kind of an article In the way nt a game, for each und every one of them hated to land back In the metrop olis without a single victory to their credit.

It meant at least a couple of runs, but nary a run did the visitors get Stuff hit a slow one to Haddock and he died easily at first Nn 1 litis Fourth Inning. Clements sent a lon" one with ribbons on It to faraway centre and Van Haltren moved ab.mt three Inches to get It. They cmilln't come fiat way too often to suit Van. Haddock popped up fly number two In almost the same direction, and this time Tlernan took a shy at It. It was Just about as easv for Mike as Clements was for Vnn Haltren, and Mike didn't propose to let It give him the "go by." Allen was a patient waiter, and no loser either He got first "free gratis for nuthln'." Hamilton's long hit to deep right was u heirl breaker on Its face for the New Ynrks, but Tlernan made one of his old-time sprints and pulled It down from cloudland. No runs. Connor nearly got the axe where It hurts. He had two strikes and three balls and then Haddock grew wearv and gave him his base. Ilogcr ran like Sport, with his head ln a bag on Burke's hit to short, ai.d " Old Waterbury" was a thing of the past at second. Farrell forced Jturke at second, and Meekln filed to Dclehanty.

Hallman filed to Tlernan, who threw magnificently to i Stafford, but It hadn't speed enough to nab Delehanty at that base. Delihnnty then score 1 on a wild pitch hy Meekln. Turner tou profited by this inlsplay, for he shot over to third. Cross struck out, nnd a little rift of silver could be seen In the muiky clouds. Clements dlsslpaad that slim shaft of hope when he belted the pellet In left and made Hurke scramble lively to stop It rolling out Into the Heading Railroad tracks. At that Clements, the cherub, nude but one haie, although Turner scored easily. Haddock filed to Ward. Thiee runs. Murphy filed to Hamilton.

Turner singled ln the same place be hind Mtirpnv and was a bit more care ful than Delehanty about standing off first. Hallmun shoved Turner along to the middle base on his single to short left. A wild pitch advanced both Turner and Hallman a base apiece, Turner moving to third and Hallman to second.

Fire broke out about 4 o'clock this morning I., one of the wooden buildings In the Incloaure, formerly known ns Jones's Woods, but latterly ns the Em pire City Colosseum and Washington Park, at Aveune A and Sixty-eighth street. Before It had been extinguished the fire spread over three blocks, between Sixty I teventh nd 6cventy-first streets, Avenue A and thVEa'st Ulver. Over $100,000 dam uge was done, twenty-five horses per ished In the flames and several people were injured. The sudden changing of the wind calls ' id he spreading of the flames when they nero thought to be under control. Tho fire was discovered by Police man Nasi, of the East Sixty-seventh street station. He was patrolling his post In Sixty-eighth street, between Ave nue A ind First avenue, when he saw flames and smoke coming from tho root of the dancing pavilion In Jones's Woods, about 200 feet from the river. He sent In an alarm, and Engine .11. from Fire Headquarters, was soon on the scene. Capt. Vedder had his engine stationed In Sixty-eighth street, near Av enue A. Twenty minutes after the discovery of the flames the long dancing pavilion, the two tiers of seats and galleries of the "Woods" were a mass of flames. There was a stiff southwest wind blowing, which carried the flames towards the river with remarkable rapidity, and the buildings, which were all wooden struc tures, burned like tinder. The flames spread across a bridge over Sixty-ninth street and caught the wooden buildings of Washington Park, which occupies the entire block between Sixty-ninth and Seventieth streets. Capt. Vedder, when he saw the fire getting beyond his control, sent out a third alarm This brought, besides As sistant Chiefs Cooney, Fisher and Glc quel. Chief Bonner, He sent In a fourth alarm.

Like u strcuk, the fire seemed to dutch the HlmBy buildings, and In five minutes the great wooden towers at the en trance of the grove, In Avenue A, were burning, together with the line of build ings along Sixty-eighth street. So rapidly did the buildings burn and fall that the buildings on the north Bide of Sixty-seventh street caught. Here the fire burned so rapidly that Capt Vedder's men, who were at work In the street, were driven back on a run from tho flames. "MImt Kill if' I'.iiKlnr Destrii) rd.

Peter De Lacy hod evidently made himself felt, and the owners were not u little uneasy. The report that the pool-room King would net upon the advice of his counsel and seize some uf the horses had been freely discussed. The fact that such a step could be token legally was fully realized by owners. It wns not believed, however, that the Sheriff would be asked to take that step to-day at least. Several deputy sheriffs wcro In and about the track, and their movements were watched with Interest, ln the betting ring, however, tho ex citement nan at fever heat. The report that Do Lacy would proceed against his brother gamblers to-day had become generally known The Guttenburgers did not seim to mind It much, having passed through the experience of nu merous betting ring rulds. There was plenty of room ln the grand stand at aravesend to-day, nB Is usual after big days. A reaction sets In and for a few das the attendance Is exceed ingly slim. There vveie not more than C.000 persons present to-day nnd no one was forced to fight for n sent. Tho bookmakers were kept pretty busy, however, and some good money was wagered. Many were the cxcues that were made for the Handlcnp starters which were unfortunnio enough to uppear In the "also rans." Sir Walter Is said to be ailing again. Strangely encugh, the colt has been sick at every Spring meeting nt Brook lyn for the past three jei.. s. Iist year he lost 121 pounds during his first week's bojourn at Brooklyn It Is said that the colt will not eat and is not ln the best of condition. Hard-luck stories are told bv the oth ers, and some of them arc amusing to hear. President Philip Dwjer was seen nftcr the first race. lie said that he did not think that De Lucy's men would bother them to-day. When told that n number of vvnrrants were reported to have been sworn out against bookmakers, Mr. Dwver said: "Well, the Association will stand by the bookmakers to a man. nnd if they are arrested they will be balled out Im mediately." Secretary Mclntyre sail arrangements had been mide to lake care of anbody connected with the track or ring In case of arrent they w HI have to be taken to Qravesend, where a Justice of the peace Is In readiness to aect.pt ball. A rumor was circulated about the track that the Judges had appeared at the Town-Hnll for examination this morning. This was denied by Victor Smith to nn "Evening World" reporter this afternoon He said "We have not been to Gravesend this morning Our examination will not take place until noon to-morrow." It Is reported that u number of depu ties left the trnck Just after the first raoe with evidence with which to pro cure a number of wnrrants Sheriff Buttling and his squad of depu ties reached the track about 4 30 o'clock.

Phil Dwyer, President of the Brooklyn Jockey Club, nns arraigned before Jus tice Wnlsh lu the Adams Street Police Court, Brooklyn, shortly after 10 o'clock this morning on n churg" of conducting and maintaining a lottery nt the Graves, end race track. He pleaded not guilty und was held 111 ll.OuO for examination at 10 o'clock to-morrow morning. Ex-Senator John McCarty furnlslud bonds for Mr. Dwyer. The wnrrant for Dwyer's nrrest was Issued on the complaint of Fred. W. Judson, of 1M Seventh avenue. Biooklyn. When Justice Wnlsh went upon the bench he at once railed the Dwer ens. Mr Elliott responded for the people, as the District-Attorney's office wns not represented. Mr. Bowers moved to dis miss the complaint, on the ground that no crime had been committed and none was shown In the complnlnt. He said the Leglslutuic had legalized pool-silling, at d the Court of Appeals had de cided ln Harris vs. White, '81, N. V., that a handicap was not a lottery. He wanted to argue his motion to dismiss at once. Justice Wnlsh asked Mr Bowers how his client pleaded. Mr. Bowers said he did not want to plead until his pre liminary mu'.lon wns decided. Justice Wnlsh took the view that Mr. Dwer had better plead not guilty, and set the case down for examination. This course was decided upon, and to morrow morning wns selected for the hearlnr. Mr. Bowers wnnted It under stood that the preliminary motion would bo decided to-morrow before going Into the details of the crime charged. Mr. Dwyer was then told he could go. Mr. De Lacy wns not In court this morning, but Mr. Elliott snld he would lie lu evidence at Gravesend this after noon. He slid the law would be more rigidly enforced to-day than jesterday.
