SLIGHT iii i:ky at AQUEDUCT TRACK
am) BOOKMAKERS WIPE OUT NAMES
ox slatks only ONE FA
VORITE WINS.
There were several flurries at the Aqueduct track
yesterday afternoon, but the most lasting, discour
aging and uncomfortable was the constant drizzle
of rain. The flurry in the betting ring caused some
comment, but the excitement was only momentary.
and was forgotten before the third race had been
run There was a rumor that those who are trying
to put a stop to betting at the tracks might visit
the inclosure during the day. Then the wise men
of the Metropolitan Turf Association put their
heads together and decided that it would be best
for one day, at least, to have each of the bookers
doing business In the ring to remove his name
from his Plate when the odds against the different
horses were quoted. This was done, and those who
wagered money on their favorites were compelled
to remember the face of the man with whom he
had made a bet. In one part of the lnclosure one
of the lines of bookmakers substituted numbers on
their slates in place, of their names, so that a
Etranger who made a wager with No. 6. or any
other number, for that iea«on, had little trouble In
finding his n;an in case his choice chanced to turn
up a winner. Some people are of the opinion that
the number system might be adopted, and that it
would prove to be more satisfactory than the pres
ent arrangement.
The weather was about as disagreeable as usual,
•with a spattering of rain falling most of the after
noon and the Irack a sea of mud. Only one favor
ite won. and as that was in the first race the
home coining of the spectators was sad and mourn
ful. McGinn, the jockey, had arranged to ride for
Louis EL Fran'hi in th« fourth race, but McGinn
neglected to report to the track in the course of
. the day, and was fined $I<io. Gold Lack won his
third straight race In the opening contest. He won
as he stassai, Red Damsel, at the liberal odds of
2H: to 1. captured th«» second race. Sidney Lucas
was himself In the handicap for three-year-olds
and upward, and carried his 156 pounds to an easy
victor>-. not making his run until half a furlong
from the finish. Shaw seemed to have been caught
napping on Elsie L. in the Ozone StHkes. and Miles
brought up Carroll D. in the last few strides and
won by a head. Millstream and Locket were the
other winners. Locket defeated Tamah Xawis.
which was at 1 to 6 in the betting. The sum

RACING i.\ a lake AT Newport.
Cincinnati, April 25.— A novel record was estab
lished nt the Newport track to-day. Six races
were run over a track covered with water aver
aging: a foot deep, and in some places deeper. It
was accomplished without serious accident to
horses or riders. When the patrons of the track
arrived they were surprised to find the homestretch
for about seventy yards inundated, and part of the
backstretch covered with water. The horsemen
and Jockeys were consulted on the advisability of
carrying out the programme, and by unanimous
consent the card was run off. There were many
exciting contests, and thousands cheered the riders
as th«y rode through the lake on the homestretch
to reach the wire. Not a horse wabbled until the
finish in the last race, when Julius Werner and
Isaac stumbled, throwing their riders into the
water, but the boys were not seriously Injured.
The racing will continue to-morrow and Satur
day under the same circumstances. To-night the
turfmen are talking of the evolution of horse racing
Into an aquatic sport. Summaries:

The Associate,] Cycling Clubs, at Its lust meeting,
passed resolutions favoring the extension of the
Boulevard 1-ifayette through Inwood to Spuyten
Duyvll cre.-k. thence up to Warburton-ave. Alder
man Oatman, Dr. E. V. Brendon and Dixie Ilines
have the matter !n charge. The associated clubs
has secured thf asphalting of Kast One-hundrcd
and-thlrtieth-st. from Fifth-aye. to the Thlrd-ave.
bridge, thus giving users of the wheel an all asphalt
route to the northern limits of the city.
According to an English critic, the rim brake Is
the best thing that ha? been Invented since the
pneumatic tire. Nevertheless then.' are some faulty
specimens about, and so fast are they Increasing In
variety that It will be ti long time before, by a
process of elimination, the public will have deter
mined which is the best.
A SJbsetaSß has recovered damages from the em
ployer of a negligent driver. The latter ran Into
the wheelman, who fell on to the footpath, his ma
chine, a new one, being badly damaged by the cart
passing over It. The driver was forced to admit in
court that he could have avoided the collision, us
there was plenty of room to get by.

will take his place.

YACHTING.
LENGTH OF THE CONSTITUTION'S MAIN
MAST ANI) MAIN BOOM— SUBBING
WORK ON HER.
Bristol, P.. 1., April 25.— From a trustworthy sourco
it was ascertained to-day that the actual length of
the eteel mainmast of the Constitution is 108 feet,
and that the length of tbe new eteei main boom
Is 110 feet. It looks now from movements going on
ln the steel shop that the Constitution will have a
steel telescoping mast, although none of the tele
gcope fittings are yet adjusted to the mainmast.
She will also have a wooden topmast. The Job of
adjusting the rudder has been carried out. It la
wedge shaped, covered with Tobln bronze plating.
the Interior being packed with wood, shaped to lit
neatly.
The machinery at the shops Is being operated
until 10 o'clock at night because of a desire to
hurry tbe construction of the main boom.
Metol workers have given way to carpenters on
board the yacht, the latter being busied in put
ting on the companions and skylights, snd finish
ing up part of the work begun eomc time ago on
hatch coumings.
A number o^ mechanics are at work down below
to-day closing seams, trimming up und putting
things in shape generally.

hundred pounds than any spinnaker boom used on
any America's Cup boat since the modern large
spinnaker has bt-en carried. This dispatch Is a fur
ther Indication that it is the Intention of the own
ers of Shamrock II to leave no stone unturned

ing American hollow spruce wood spars, Mr. Wat
eon is going to have them.

MEMBERS OF THE AUTOMOBILE CLUB RE
JOICE OVER THE SIGNING OF DOUGHTY \
BILL— FOR THE NEW-YORK
BUFFALO TEST.
Members of the Autoomblle Club of America were
rejoicing last night over the Intelligence from Al
bany that Governor Odel! had signed the Doughty
Automobile bill. The bill has been amended since
it was Introduced at the Instigation of the club
of this city, but the changes refer only to the
jurisdiction of the park officials in city parks, and
the owners of motor machines «re satisfied with the
measure as ¦ whole. The bill provides for the
registration of automobiles with the Secretary of
State, and allows them to he driven on any high
way nt a speed not to exceed fifteen miles an hour
outside of Incorporated cities and villages. The
new law simply confers upon the owners of motor
vehicles the same rights enjoyed by the drivers of
hor?es. and It avoids the confusion which would
have arisen bad sacb township been left to iix
Its speed limits. The speed of automobiles in
cities must not exceed eight miles an hour. The
bill also requires that each owner of an automobile
must file with the Secretary of State a brief
description of each vehicle, and shall pay to the
State a registration fee of SI. The owners of
automobiles have remained quiet recently, but now
thru the bill has become a law incidents In the
motor world promise to be livelier.
The Automobile <"luh of America jresterdajr nr
ranced the conditions for the firm annual endur
ance test, which will he held between this city
and Huffnlo. Ftartlng on September 7. The dls
tance will be about five hundred miles. The com
petitors .ire expected to make about eighty-live
mill s aacta day. The macblnea will be on the
road six days. The contest will be open to all
classes, but no m.'>n>if. # tctur'-r or owner c ; jn start

boards, will be for poys^sslon of the trophy pre
sented three yean ago by Professor Isaac L. Rice,

and great efforts have therefore been made by
the Americans* " come out of the fray with flying
colors. As only two men on the British team have

play this year.

theatre of the Knickerbocker Athletic Club, while
