M'CLELLAND WON IT.
A Great 0ne-MiIe Race at HomeW0od
Driving Park Yesterday.
NlKIRK MADE A GAME CONTEST,
But Was Killed Within Two Hundred Yards
of the Finish.
EXCELLENT TINE AND GOOD SPORT.

The one mile foot race at Homewood
Driving Park yesterday proved to be the
best ever seen in Pittsburg, and the time
was the fastest ever done in the State.
Both Nikirk and McClelland were in ex-
cellent shape. Everybody expected hot
race, and none were disappointed.
The odds were all for Nikirk, he holding
the betting stiff at the opening at $25 to $40.
The odds remained in his favor almost to
the close, and the McClellsnd party put up
all their money on their favorite and are
consequently happy.
At the start McClelland went to the front
and Nikirk had evidently decided that it
should be trail race The pace was fast
and interesting at the outset. the money going
at SIS to $40 on Nikirk.
NIKIRK GOES AHEAD.
At the quarter pole, which was passed in 1:0l
Nikirk made grand squirt, and. amid the en-
couraging shouts of his friends, forged away
ahead of his opponent. This brought the bet
ting to stand, McClolland's friends evidently
fearing that they had under estimated his
speedy opponent. However, he could not hold
his position for long. and McClelland gradually
forged ahead of him. Thus the race continued
very short lead. The half was made in 2d7.
At the three-quarter pole Nikirk, by big
effort, succeeded in catching his opponent, and
for over 100 yards the men were running
abreast, and 1t was hard to tell which WAS the
winner Neither man appeared to be in dis
tress, and Nikirk was believed to have the best
chance of sprinting ahead in the last $50 yards.
Soon he fell back to his old position on the
trail, and there he remained. After the last
quarter was passed McClelland gave q burst of
speed that surprised even his friends.
AT THE FINISH.
Nikirk held to him. however, and ran game
race to within 200 yards of the finish. where he
reeled and fell on the track and was carried off
by his friends. McClelland slowed up his pace,
but went under the wire in the excellent time
of 432 He was in good condition, and was
ready to be congratulated by his friends. One
of the first men to shake his hand was his old
opponent Pete Priddy, who said he considered
1t wonderful piece of Work. Had he been
pushed he could easily have made much better
time.
b. Monday was referee, and he and Pete
Priddy held the watches. The race was very
exciting up to the time Niklrk fell. He ran
game race, and it is pity he was compelled to
give in.
Ed has said that this would be his last race,
win or lose and it is too bad he was unable to
hold out to the finish. He has a great record
at half-mile running.
This race demonstrates the fact that Nc
Clelland is not so slow at a mile as some sup
posed, and many now think that that Is his best
distance. Chris Roselip handled McClelland,
and it shows that the man was well taken care
of. Roselip has trained McClelland for the
majority of his races and knows well how he
should be cared for.

NOT GUMBERT'S FAULT.

He Pitched a Good Game, but the Fates
and the Umpire Were Agninst Him
A Beautiful Game Until the Fatal
EighIh.
A rank decision by Umpire Zacharias, follow
ing by general rattling of the home team and
the punching of three errors by Shortstop
Crane, spoiled as pretty a game as ever was
seen in this city at Recreation Park yesterday.
Gumbert pitched a great game of ball, and
nothing but the hardest kind of luck made
the score what II was Only two hits were
made of the delivery of Nichols who seems to
have an especial grudge against the colts.
Boston scored q run in the fourth inning
after two men were out. on a shady three
bagger along the first base line which Right
Fielder Miller Yehemently declared was a foul
and scratch single from the bat Of Hines
The nrst IL batters for Pittsburg went out in
order. The eighteenth, Gumbert got to base
on an eXcusabe error of Hines Sunday
secured four balls, and Gumbert scored on
Millers hit being the only Pittsbureer to
reach the plate. This tied the score and from
then until the last half of the eighth inning
the contest was sharp, but no runs were tailed
At this fatal moment Nichols was first to
bat, and sent q grounder to short Crane fum-
blec the ball, but recovered in time to clearly
throw the runner out at first Zacharias de-
ciueu otherwise, however, and then the trouble
commenced. Before the agony was ended
Boston had scored eight runs and the game.
Crane had two more errors, and La Rooue
made wild throw to thiro. Four hits were
made OF Gumbert in the confusion but three
of them should not be counted against him as
the side should have been retired before they
were made. Pittsburg made no Impression in
the ninth, and the cruel agony was over.

ESPECIAL TELEGRAM TO THE DIsPATcH.i
PHILADELPHIA, June 28.-The suit of
William Herbert against Charles B.
Wright, ex-President of the Northern Pa
cifc Railroad Company, to recover S5S, 900
on a speculative deal in Northern Pacific
preferred stock, as Herbert's share of the
profits, is attracting considerable at
tention on the ''street." Herbert
is a Third street barber, who had for
his customers most of the prominent bankers
and brokers, when Third street was the
center of stock speculations. Among his
customers was Mr.. Wright, and Mr. Herbert
would perform tonsorial duties for the
millionaire at his office on Third street and
,palatial residence in West Philadelphia.
The railroad niagnate took a fancy to the
young barber, and besides giving him lib
eral fees, Mr.. Wright undertook to make
few dollars for his protege in the market
Mr.. Wright authorized Herbert, SO the
story goes, to buy several hum
dred shares of Northern Pacific pre-
ferred, Mr. Wright furnishing all the
money for margins. The orders were
placed with the old firm of l.. H. Taylor &
Co., and it soon became noised about that
Wright was buying Northern Pacific
preferred. The other customers in the
Office would make a scramble for
the stock, and while Mr.. Wright
only bought few hundred shares, the total
purchases engendered by his orders
amounted to as many thousand shares, Civ
ing Mr.. Wright theopportunity, if he chose,
to resell at a good profit all the stock which
he bought through Herbert.
Matters drifted along for three or four
years in this way, and Herbert was the gain
er by $1,000 to $1,000 annually. The suit
was based upon one deal which was Of un-
usual magnitude, in which Mr.. Wright
placed not less than $780, of bonds
as margins to protect the brokers,
Mr.. Wright became tired of carrying the
load, and about a year ago, when the stock
was selling at about 60, he wanted to sell out.
To this Herbert objected. Mr.. Wright,
however. disposed of his holdings. Now the
stock has become dividend payer, drawing
1 per cent quarterly, and recently it sold
at S85 per share. Herbert claims that the
account should be closed out at the present
market value, and his claim for profits is
based upon the present market value of the
stock, which is about 500 per share greater
than when Mr.. Wright closed the transac-
fiou
