MONTREAL, Sept. 24.-The Canadian amateur
athletic cham pionships, which were held on
tho Montreal A. A. A. grounds to-day. proved
to be tho finest athletic meeting ever held In
the Dominion. Four thousand enthusiastic
Canucks were present to cheer their athletes
IN the struggle against the invaders from
across the border.
In two OF the principal events, the ono mile
and half milo races. they were successful. g.
W. Orion OF the Toronto Lacrosse Club. a boy
who made his first appearance In tho Canadian
champions last year, astonished every ono
present by his great performance in defeating
Hjertberg in the one-mile run in tho fast
time OF 4 minutes n As seconds. thus reduce
Ing the Canadian record by more than Ave Sec
onds.
In short distance races the Canadians de-
pended on II. u. Carr. who holds q record of
ten seconds for 100 yards. He was unfor-
tunate. however. as after winning his heat
easily he broke down In the FIRST twenty yards
OF the final heat. which was won rather easily
by the Detroit nyor. Jewett.
In the Observation-Disclosures yard run
Jewctt created n new worlds record. which
was extremely meritorious. az the race was
run over n track with one turn. The time was
recorded officially as 2lS seconds. but the
electrical timing apparatus. which was In use
in all the races. registered 81 95-100 seconds.
In the 12o-yard hurdle race Harry Morrell OF
the New York A. C. eaualled the worlds record
OF l5S seconds, and defeated Puffer. the Met
ropolitan champion. by a yard.
One OF the surprises Of the meeting was the
defeat Of W. D.. Day in the two-mile run by his
clubmate. Hjertberg. Days number on the
programme was the unlucky thirteen. He
did not have the number on when he an
reared at the mark. but the officials objected
to his running without tho number properly
placed on his back.
After quito n dispute he was induced to wear
It. L. c. Carter OF the n. y. A. c. was forced to
retire at tho end OF the mile through his shoe
coming OIL. At the commencement OF the last
lap HjertberC. who had been waiting on Day.
spurted. Day held to him for about $50 yards.
and then became fainthearted and stopped.
Tho half mile was the best race OF the day.
It was won by the Canadian. Waldron. in bet
ter time than the previous Canadian record;
