They Defeat the British Team b,
Hard Pulling.

The next pull on the programme was be-
tween the Germans and English, but as the
Teutons refused to pull IT was announced
that the contest would be between the Eng
lish and the First Troop of Cavalry.
The soldiers were considerably ebagrined
over their defeat by the Canucks and were
again eager for the fray.
While waiting for the appearance OF the
teams an unpleasant incident occurred,
which. however, ended happily.
The referee, Lieutenant Dean, called the
reporters together and stated that it had
come to Mr.. McNeilps ears that Captain
Waller of the First Troop Of Cavalry had
made charges that one Of his men had been
bribed to pull with the Canadians, and also
that he could have made bushels of money
the previous night If he had felt inclined
that way.
Mr.. Mcneil wished the reporters to meet
In his private Office after the pulls were all
over and he would make Captain Waller
either substa initiate his charges or withdra "
them.

the evening before and were full of wonder
to know what the chances were fer a change
this trip.
Some were in charge OF the horses and
some had care of the men.
There were sports and jockeys and small
boys galore, but all were grouped about the
teams.
Most OF the loungers about the stables
