necessary details for the 75-yard sprint
between T. G. Morris of this city and
James Quirk, the Canadian. CASH Har-
vey went to Los Angeles yesterday in
the interest of the Orange County Fair
association, to interview Quirk and his
backer, j.. l.. Black, and see if they
would not consent to run the race over
the track near town.
Mr.. Harvey informed the HERALD
representative that the eastern gentle
men were fully convinced that they
would be treated perfectly fair if they
should decide to come to Santa Ana and
make the match. He also said that he
spent the greater part of the day in in
Producing Mr.. Quirk and his hacker to
! the horsemen and business men of Los
| Angeles, VINO, one and all, spoke very
| highly of the fairness of the Santa Ana
people.
The stakeholder settled upon is the
| First National bank, and the forfeit will
be posted today or tomorrow and the
articles of agreement signed. Quirk
will be in town tomorrow, and it is safe
to say the race will be settled before he
returns to the Angel city. Morris Wis
tied Rediands and San Bernardino yes
terday with view of making arrange
ments with his hackers to put up the
forfeit and final stake when called upon.
DISSATISFIED ATHLETES.
The athletes who attended the field
day at Los Angeles yesterday complain
of the poor treatment received at the
hands of the L. A. a. G. in the matter
of handlcaps. In the 220 and 440-yard
sprints, A. Harlin was placed on the
scratch with @. V. Howard and P. j.
Mcmahon OF San Bernardino, who was
not able to finish the quarter mile at
Riverside on the 4th of July. Howard
wen both events at Riverside over the
above. contestants, who should
have received handicap of some de-
scription. The idea of giving man
tenth of the distance seems very alb
surd, not to say anything of the poor
race witnessed by the grand stand.
Harry Bundy was not used to the
sharp curves of the track and ran fl
two or three times, thereby losing one
OF the races. With fair handicaps to
contestants, Santa Ana could send some
very fair athletes to Los Angeles, but
when there is no chance to win there is
no use III allowing our boys to so up
there and be sat upon as they were yes
terday.
