SPA'S BAXXER YEAS:
Fl< J{ STAKES THIS WEEK.
liirh-Class Racing and Big Crowds
at Saratoga Meeting.
[By "TVtesrrir 1 - to Th* Tribune.]
1 ' Saratoga. V T. Aug. 12.— With one week of the
I rrUistunnier meeting cf the Saratoga Racing Ass"
ciation over, it can be said "in all fairness that the
I sport has never been on a. higher plane or the at
.! tenaan'-e s*» uniformly large. Raring has taken a
; •rm nold on hundreds of persons in Saratoga and
I tfce sarrormding town?, and these make up no sma.'l
1 part cf these who visit the track doily Th» rec
) erf-breaking crowds on the opening day and on
• Baturd«v attested full well the popularity of the
: (port as conducted by Francis R. Hitchcock and
■ i bis associates, and the. meeting is more than living
I op :to Its promise of being the most successful.
| fkwns every standpoint since the sport was revived
f here a few- years ago.
j The Saratoga. Handicap, the Bptaaway Stakes.
the Travers Stakes and the Saratoga Special, four
qZ the richest fixtures of the meeting, have been
decided, but there are other? to come which prom
ts* quite as well, and the programme this week
will be up to last work's standard. The Catfkill
Stakes, the Delaware Handicap, the Huron Handi
cap and the Troy Stakes are the minor fixtures".
but In addition the Grand T'nion Hotel Stakes, of
QMSOf the Shilleiah Steeplechase, with {2,000 and
plate to the value of $s<« added: th» Hopeful Stakes,
Welch will be worth close to $3>.ooi\ and the Great
Bejwblic which will pay come tlo.^oo. will be de
dded.
The Grand Union Hotel Stakes will be run on
Wednesday. It is for two-year-olds, at six fur
locgs. and among those eligible are James R.
Xeeae'* Superman. Ballot and Grimaldi; Sydney
Pagefs Water Pearl; John Saaford's Rockstone,
OsblsskfU end Flint Hill; Thomas Hitchcock, Jr.'s.
Golf Ball; H. B. Duryea's Chaseaway; August Bel
monfe Don Enrique; Oscar Lewisohn's Yankee Gun
sad tee Newcastle Stables* Saraclnesca-
The test timber toppers in training are eligible
Icr th« BhUlelah Steeplechase, which is named
after the late William C. Whitney's best jumper.
Desert Chief, the horse imported from England at
a. big expense by the Brown Park Stable, will
taave one more chance to establish himself. He
has fallen In his only two starts in this country
while running" well tip.
The Hopeful, lor two-year-olds, at sir furlongs,
will be run on Saturday, together with the Shiile
lan Steeplechase .and the Great Republic Stakes. It is
• produce stake, and. as some three hundred and
fifty mares were entered, the subscriptions and
added money make it one of the richest two-year-
Aid fixtures of the season. Sixty-seven colts and
Zlilies are still eligible, but a field of not more than
fourteen will fro to the post. Among- those likely
to start are Peter Pan, Ballot, Don Enrique, Ken
tucky Beau. Glamor, Yankee Gun, Water Pearl,
£3r wllllam Johnson, Joseph Brant and Paumonok.
The Great Republic Stakes had a guaranteed
value of $50.00) last year, making- it the richest
stake of the reason. It was a. white elephant to
the Saratoga Racing Association, however, and It
was deemed advisable to cut it down to $10,000
added this year, which, with the subscriptions, will
make it well worth winning. The race is for three
year-olds and upward, at weight for age, with, pen
alties and allowances, and the distance is one mile
and a quarter. The best of the older horses in
training- are eligible, and the field will be made up
from OlseaJ. Whimsical, Bohemian. Flip Flap, Or
mondale. -Mohawk 11. Go Between, The Picket,
Gallavant and Th 6 <Jua!J.
The death of Ram's Horn robs the race of much
Interest, a« a meeting- between him and Go Be
tween had been eagerly anticipated by all lovers of
the thoroughbred. Go Between will be able to
start, as the suspension of Alex Shields for one
month will be up by that time. The horse has had
a careful preparation for this particular stake, and
in all probability will go to the post favorite.
The defeat of Horace K. In a condition race for
two-year-olds on Friday did not discourage his
owner, R. A. Rainey, or Ins trainer. "Bud" May.
Both realized, when too late, that the good colt was
not quite ready for hie best effort against such
clever -vounystens as i.'or.vine and Purslane proved
to berv'Horace K. lias had a. rest since his brilliant
cam" Ign in the West this spring, and was only
rseei ■ v taken in hand in preparation for the
2«uturitv, to Iwrun et er^epeheed Bay on Septem
ber L
The colt had worked fast, but there Is a big
difference between working and racing, and it was
asking too much of him under the conditions. "Bud"
May will now go on with his preparation for the
Wg race, and it Is not Improbable that he will
redeem himself when the great question Is asked.
Many consider Horace E. the best two-year-old in
the country, not excepting Salvldere. Water Pearl.
Peter Pan and Baljot. It is hoped that Horace E.
"will live Tip to Ills • reputation In the West, as Mr.
Salney taas spared no expense to buy the best and
6eberves euccees.
Thd untimely death of Ram's Horn et Bheeps
head Say. last week, adds one more to the list of
pood horses which have died or been forced into
retirement this year. Never before have so many
nigh class horses been Incapacitated in one season,
and the turf is the loser. Sysonby. Ram's Horn,
Artful, Burgomaster. Hermis, Stalwart and Timber
are some of those which could ill be spared. Ram's
Horn's death came at a time when he -was at the
heUrftt of his career, and had just established him
eelf as one of the nest handicap horses in training.
The new ruling In regard to the use of blinkors,
put In force last week by the awards of the Sara
toga Ra>clng Association, is a good one. which the
other associations might do well to follow. Under
the new order the responsibility is placed where it
belongs on the trainer Instead of the Jockey. The
declaration to wear blinkers must be made on the
entry blank, so that, if a rider presents himself at
the scales without the hood, the clerk of the toales
can see that the error is corrected. TTnder the old
corditionp nobody was responsible, end the betting
public j-uffered. Some iiorsea will not extend them
selves without Winkers, and a failure to put them
on means sure defeat.
VANDERBILT WINS BIG STAKES.
Deauville. Aug. 12.— W. K. Vanderbilfs Malr.te
ron won the Longchampa Stakes of 112,600 here to
day and hip Madge took the Yacowlef Stakes for<

Open Tournament at Deal. This
Week's Attraction.
Entries for the annual Invitation tournament to
•be held over the links of the Deal Golf and Coun
try Club on Thursday. Friday and Saturday of this
week will eloee. to-morrow night. Assurances of a
lerge field of starters have already been received.
This course, covering a playing length of «,400
odd yards, is on«» of the most difficult .In the
country, but. for all that, there Is no place more
popular with the golfers. Oilman P. Tiffany, of
this city, champion of the Hudson River Golf As
sociation. Is to compete. In the eighteen hole medal
play open handicap at Hollywood on Saturday Tif
fany made a gross score of 74. which shows that he
is at the. top of his game.
Extensive Improvements are In progress, on the
clubhouse, which is to have two additional stories,
making it possible to put In fifteen or twenty bed
rooms. An extension will provide extra locker
space and a lounging room, while the golf house
and shop is to be replaced by improved quarters.
The verandas are also to lie. extended.
An innovation will be a pavilion and do*>k built on
th-> waterfront of Deal I^ake. the shores of which
are within a few yards of the home green. The
property. Including George W. Young's holdings,
has been purchased by the new club for $1,000 an
acre. Something like 120 acres changed hands.
With norn« alterations In the arrangement of the
holes, the Deal links could be made one of the best
championship courses In the Bast. In referring to
the arrangement Travis declared that nil Deal
needed was a few changes, such as cutting out
some of the present outward holes and substituting
others on the home Journey, thereby shortening the
playing length going out.
Undulating putting greens would also add at
tractiveness to the situation. At present the thir
teenth hole, over the marl pit. is one of the best
one-shot holes to be found anywhere, and the sev
enth is a capital three-shot hole. In former years
th« home hole was a good drive and a pitch, but
with the rubber cored balls it is now possible to
reach the green on the drive. The hole Is 243 yards.
There is every possibility that Alec Smith and
Will Anderson, the present and former open cham
pions of the United States, will £o abroad in the
fall for a serieß of matches. The money is as good
as in hand, but the chief trouble lies in the players
getting the necessary leave of absence. Smith lias
plenty to do ut the Nassau Country <lub In the
autumn, and that Is also a busy time with the
OnwentKia members.
It was originally planned for Smith and Anderson
to meet J. fi. Taylor and lara-P Braid, but if the
former pair do not undertake the trip a series of
matches will he- arranged. Sniitti says he feels con
fident that they would do well in 8 tour of this
kind. He admits that tho courses over thereare
more difficult than those here, but that the handicap
is offFet by the superior quality of the greens.

tains this week will gather at Manchester for the
seventh annual open tournament on the links of the
Ekwanok Country Club. AVednesday, Thursday.

J. A. T. Bramstr.n, who a few years ag.> was
rated as one of the foremost amateur golfers in
Great Britain, died recently at the early age of
twenty-Six. Tlie son of the Rev. John Tiant
Bramston, assistant master at Winchester t'ollege.
he was educated at Winchester and Magdalen <'ol
lege. Oxford, where he graduated In I*4. As a
golfer he showed unusual promise, and in 3900, when
only nineteen years of age, he reached the semi-final
of the amateur championship at Sandwich. He
was then beaten by James Robb. the present tttle
holder. Mr. Bramston represented Oxford against
Cambridge on four occasions.
Mr. Bramston came t<> this country In 19rt3 with
tbe Oxford-Cambridge team. He won a number of
his matches, and in a tournament at the Homewood
Golf Club, near <"hicago, won the chief cup, besides
breaking the record for the links with a score of 75.
He wae the only amateur golfer who remained true
to the hard ball.
8. D. Bowers, of the Erooklawn Country Club,
won the chief cup in the open tournament at the
Highland Country Club, at Stroudeburg. Perm., on
Saturday. He defeated I>. M. Bchock, of the home
club, in the thirty-six hole final by 3 up and 2 to
play. Bowers also won the gross score prize in tUe
elghteen-hol«s medal play handicap on the last day
with 85. Schock won the handicap with a car«i of
S6-6-SO.

and Cricket Club, at Seabrlght.
The victory of Thomas Hitchcock, jr.'s. chest
nut gelding Salvldere, a son of Belvldere— Belle
of Navarre, in the Saratoga Special, at Sara
toga, gave the winner a legitimate claim to the
two-year-old championship to date.
The annual cruise of the New York Yacht
Club was brought to a close with some excellent
races and squadron runs. J. Rogers Maxwell's
schooner Queen and F. F. Brewster's schooner
Elmina Bhared the honors of the week with
Frank M. Smiths sloop Effort. The latter won
the Initial race, sailed off Newport, for the
King's cup. the gift of Edward VII. The El
mina and the sloop Humma, owned by Robert
W. Emmons. 2d. won in the race for the Astor
cups, which was also sailed off Newport,
was one of the most successful cruises ever
held.
The second meeting of the Grand Circuit was
held at Buffalo and good sport was witnessed at
Kenllworth Park. The $10,000 Empire State
puree for 2:10 trotters. th.c feature of the meet
ing, was won by Gold Dust Maid, owned and

don in Montreal. The latter will make a tour
of Canada and the United States and play ex
hibition matches of association football. The
former will row the Cambridge I'niverslty crew
on the historic Thames River next month.
PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL.
The action of the New York Baseball Club
in refusing Umpire Johnstone admittance to the
Polo Grounds on Tuesday not alone caused the
Giants a forfeit of the game, but also aroused
'indignation among the lovers of professional
baseball who are in favor of clean sport. Harry
C. Pulliam. president of the National Baseball
League, gained many friends by hastening from
Saratoga to this city for the purpose of straight
ening out the trouble, and agreeing with John
stone in his decision giving the game to Chi
cago. The championship series is rapidly com
ing- to a close, and to stand a chance of winning
first place such doings as were seen at the Polo
Grounds on Tuesday must not be repeated.
Chicago, the leaders, won every game the team
played this week, taking three victories from
the Giants, one of these through the forfeit al
ready mentioned. The Chicago nine beat Brook
lyn ; |i three straight games. The work of the
Highlanders last week was disappointing. Their
defeat yesterday by the Chicago American team
gave the latter first place in the championship
race. Failure to hit the ball was the chief cause
of their poor showing.
POLO PLAYERS BUST;
These are busy days for the polo players, with
matches in progress on the field of the Rumson
Polo Club, at Seabright. and at th» Point Judith
Country Club, at Narragansett Pier. The dates

Point Judith and the Rhode Island cup«. The

day was won by Bryn Mawr in a close match
with Xew Haven. The victory of Bryn Mavvr
was secured by only a quarter of a goal. Play
will begin this week on the Weatchester Polo
Ciub grounds, at Newport, and next week at the
Saratoga Polo Club, at Saratoga Springs. The
Junior and senior polo championships will be de

under the auspices of the Eastern Yacht Club,
the donor of the cup, and will continue through
out the week. At the conclusion the German-
American race committee of the club will select
the threw American defenders to sail against the
German yachts. Seventeen yachts, all of the same
general dimensions, but of different designs,
have entered for the trials. Of these eight rep

restrictions as to dimensions and sail area, and
constitute a special section of what 1b known in
Germany as a "Sonder" class. Under the agree
ment between the Eastern Yacht Club and the
Imperial Yacht Club, of Kiel, Germany, none of
the yachts weigh less than 4.036 pounds, while
their total length on the waterllne, added to the
breadth and depth, does not exceed thirty-two
feet, and the sail area is not over flve hundred
and fifty square feet.
The American yachts have all been built in
this country from American designs, and will be
handled by American born skippers and crews.
All but three of the yachts have done more or
less raiinsr in local waters in the way of tuning
up trials for the last two months, and several
have shown themselves to be very speedy.
Or the yacht f< that have raced. Sally VIII.
owned by L. F. Percival, of the I'orinthian club;
the Sumatra, owned by Francis Skinner, of the
Eastern Yacht Club; Manchester 11. owned by
J. L. Bremer. of the Manchester Yacht Club, and
the Bonidrel. owned by O. H- Wightman. of the
Hingham club have done the best work.
The trial ract\-= will all be held off the en
trance of Salem Bay. the start being at Halfway
Rock, an isolated rock three miles off shore, and
about half way between Boston and Cape Ann.
The regatta committee has laid out two courses,
one of twelve miles far windward and leeward
races, and the second a fifteen mile triangular
course of five miles on a side. The yachts will
he started as near 11 o'clock in the forenoon as
possible, anil there will be no time allowance.

two of th« yachts entered would not compet* — the
Hareeed I and the Moslem 11. This leaves seven
teen yachts for the trial. A time limit of six hours
whs arranger! for the races.

HAIASIX WIXS BIG RACE.
Captain Shenvood Takes Both Ama
teur Cycling Contests.
J. T. Halgln. late of the Bay View "Wheelmen,
won the ten-mile open professional contest at the
Yallsburg cycle track. In Newark, yesterday. Hal
gln made a one-day excursion into the cash prize
field a few weeks ago, but di,l not win anything,
and asked for and obtained reinstatement* as an
amateur. He decided to change Ma mind again,
and yesterday was one of the seventeen starters in
the one professional race on the programme. Ke
was a good road rider as an amateur, but his op
ponents in the ten-mile race yesterday evidently
undervalued his staying ability, because no one
chased him when he started out to win a few
a lap prizes In the last mile. He led at the ninth
mile, and kept right on plugging and increased his
lead until he was the, length of the stretch ahead
as lie began the last lap.
Schlee first and Krebs later sprinted after him.
"? vt :H . a ' Xl 2 was fort yards ahead of Kreba when
he finished the race. His second appearance as a
professional was quite successful, as he won seven
of the n lap prizes in addition to the $70 first prize
for the finish. Krebs outsprinted the others and
won second place from Rupprecht by a length.
John Bedell, much bandaged up as the result of a
bad tumble in a motor paced race at Boston, started
in the ten-mile contest, but gave it up at five miles
Charles A. Sherwood, captain of the New York
Athletic Club cycle racing team, won both of the
amateur contests. In the flying start quarter-mile
race his teammate— George C. Cameron— led all
the way until Sherwood passed him in the home
stretch. Sherwood won Dy a trifle more than a
length, while Cameron finished about a foot ahead
of Mackay. Charles Mock, the spectacled road
racing crack, started from the 50-yard mark in
one of the two mile trial heats of the five-mile
amateur handicap, but just failed to qualify for
the final. Sherwood, Mackay. Jacob and McDonald
were on scratch in the final and the field bunched
at two miles. Jacob changed mounts in the fourth
mile, but did not figure in the sprint at the finish.
Sherwood was in fourth place as the field swung;
into the homestretch. i>nt led Mackav over the
line by a length.
Charles Sehle* was pitted against Alfred Ashurst
and Edward Rupprecht in a pursuit race, in whieu
Schlee was to be declared th? winner if the pair
failed to overtake him In five miles. Schlep held
his own for the first two laps of the quarter-mile
track, but lost after that. Ashurst and Kui>pr>-<-ht
took turns making the puce, and Rupprecht finally
lumped away by himself, passing Schlep after a
ham sprint of H>o yards.

TITUS PUZZLES OARSMEN.
Veteran Owes Success to New Shell — Many
on River.
There was much talk along the Harlem River
yesterday of the victory of Constance S. Titus,
of the Nonpareil Rowing Club, in th^ senior sin
gle scull race at Worcester on Saturday! "Why.
It was practically a walkover for him.' said
many who bad gone up to hear the different
stories •;" oarsmen, "it was the dark boras that
won out." snid other enthusiasts who gathered
at th? various clubs, "and that's all there 13
to it."
Titus had been training for this event for sev
eral months, and those who, before he went to
Worcester, said they had better leave him In
the stable than compete against Shepharct. were
much mistaken and had little to say yesterday.
Titus, in his anxiety to win back his lost laurels,
went so far st> to have a new boat built. The
new boat weighs seven pounds less than the reg
ular shell, and no doubt helped him to win the
race. Titus, like Young, of the Atalanta Boat
Club, used the same shell for thlrty-slx years.
One day Young's b-.»at was struck by a piece of
wood which was floating along and smashed He
thought then that his rowing career had ter
minated; '<rwf ins ojembers could not see it that
way «cd had a gig Hullt for him. Now he
can t>* seen on the rlr*r. almost any evening
taJUatr long- spins. He sssafl yesterday that he
row* batter now than -he did t\» ai.ty-fU years
