MONMOUTH PARK RACE, TRACK, july 26-
Five thousand turf lovers made the journey

Der Boss ST. Louis Manager Gets the Best
of George Wagner.


of George Wagner.
WASHINGTON, July 26.-[Speciol. while in
st. Louis the other day Geo rye Wagner was
up against Chris Won der Abe and the ghost
of the Cincinnati-P endleton American As
sociation venture. Chris holds the lease on
the Pendleton grounds. He is responsible for
the S., 200 annual rental. He has a 5000 in
demnity bond, signed by c. A. Prince, George
W. Wagner. Henry Bennett and Harry Van
Der Horst to protect him. He gave notice
to Mr.. Wagner of an assessment OF $23S on
behalf of the Philadelphia Asso citation Club,
and for the same amount on account of the
Washington Club.
Mr.. Wagner paid the Philadelphia assess
ment, but kicked on the WasEin ington bill.
His reason for doing so was that when he
bought out the local club he was assured
that President Bennett had not obligated
the Washington Club in the matter, and as
further guarantee he received an indemnity
bond of 5000 to protect him against any
back indebtedness of the club not accounted
for al the time of his purchase. Mr.. Wagner
now claims this bond is responsible for
Washington's assessment. The old Board
of Directors of the local club declare that
they never authorized Bennett to sign any
paper obligating Washington in the matter
of the Pendleton venture. The trouble was
settled amicably here to-day, Chris coming
out ahead,

NARROWLY ESCAPED DEATH.

A Duquesne Car Runs Into Buggy With
Serious Results.
There was an ugly accident on Ellsworth
avenue last night between College avenue
and the bridge. Car 20, of the Duquesne
line, was running along Ellsworth at full
speed. A team attached to buggy in
which were seated a lady and gentleman
and near the bridge became unmanageable
The driver jumped out of the buggy to
catch the horses by the hesos. Before he
could catch them the horses had jumped di-
rectly across the car tracks and were hit by
the car. Both horses were badly injured

LYNCH AND GRIFFIN.
Jimmy Starts to Train for the Important
Ruff oE M

Jimmy warts TO Train for tho important
Battle OF Next September.
NEW YORK, July 26.-[Specioi.1 1-Jimmy
Lynch, the l22-pound champion pngilist,
started in yesterday to train for his fight
with Johnny Grimm, which is to come Off
during the latter part of September. Jimmy
has abandoned his old training quarters at
Linden, and will get ready this time at the
Atlantic Highlands. The principal cause
for tho change is that at the Highlands he
can bathe in salt water, which he could NOT
do at Linden. Jack Quinn will be his
trainer.
Lynch begins thus early to work because
he is very big just now. He weighs $50
pounds, and it is generally hard flesh and
difficult to work of. He has been taking
care Of himself for some time. He wants to
begin moderately and reduce gradually.
He will put in the last three weeks of his
course in dead earnest. and fit himself for
that sort Of business during the interim.
The $3.50 that Rod Mcmahon, Lvnch's
backer, posted in the Illustrated News Office
to make a side bet OF $1,000 on the contest
has not been covered by Griffin. McMahon
by the way, is in great distress. Every
sporting man will sympathize with this hon
est and generous fellow when it is known
that his wife is lying dangerously i'll with
consumption in the Catskill Mountains.

SLEPT IN AN ICE HOUSE.
Strange Experiences OF Some Young Me
Who Fled From q Storm.

Strange Experiences of Some Young Men
Who Fled From q Storm.
CLEVELAND July 26-An incident of the
storm Sunday night is related of q camp of
East End young men who are enjoying their
summer outing i'll Collinwood. About forty
of them are at Camp Crescent. They have
their abode in pleasant weather in tents.
When the storm arose about half the campers
commenced to care for the tents to prevent
them being blown away. In several cases it
became necessary for the boys to remain
outside and stand upon the canvass to keep
1t in their possession, and the pelting rain
quickly soaked through their clothing.
About a dozen young men started for q
barn-like structure not far away, and getting
inside, disposed themselves upon large
pile of sawdust which occupied most Of the
space. Here they slept all night. Upon
arising yesterday morning they were sur
prfsed1 to find themselves stiff and sore and
almost overcome with cold. One of the
young men, who was of inquiring mind, took
a shovel and dug down into the mass OF saw
dust.
They were in an ice house.
