From the San Francisco Alta. Oct. 3l.l
Yesterday large numbers of people Wis
tied Bay View Park to witness the two
hundred.mle race between VIM. Walsh
and Neil Mowry, for stake of $1,000 a
side and championship gold medal,
presented by Mr.. Silas Seleck, the pro.
prietor. According to the terms OF the
race, each man was to be allowed tweRty
horses, with FIVE in reserve. At an early
hour the contestants presented them
selves, and the horses provided for each
wers,examined. The riders started soon
after nine o clock, and up to the compile
ton of the fortieth mile the chances
seemed about even. At this point Walsh,
in changing horses, fell, and was so badly
injured as to cause delay of some two
minutes. During the early part of the
race Walsh was decidedly the favorite,
but Mowry, who had been saving his
stosk. soon made up the difference, and
eal,antly won the race and the title OF
champion rider for long distances The
following was the time made: Mowry,
8 hrs. So min. and As seconds; Walsh,
9 hrs. and Is seconds. The best time
for one mile made during the race was BY
Walsh, in two minutes and ten seconds.
