ROBERT J. AGAIN DEFEATED
JOE PATCHEN PRoTEs TO BE MORE
THAA A MATCH FOR HIM.

As Result of the Race HamIin's Little
Champion VIII Be Retired From the
Track Until He Gets Back to His Usual
Form-It Was a Good Race, Though.
Buffalo, Aug. s.-For the third time
this year Joe Patchen to-day defeated
Robert ]. The game son of Patchen
Wilkes convincingly demonstrated his
superiority over the little knee-sprung
paoer, and as result Of the struggle
Hamlin's champion will be retired from
the track until he regains his odd form.
1t was truly battle royal, but one in
which Jack Curry had all the best OF
the argument In the two fastest heats
he sat In the sulky as irnmovable as
statue, when the horses were fight
ing 1t out in the home stretch, while
Geers worked like a demon and dashed
Robert J. with the whip time and again.
The track was in the finest possible
condition and only moderate wind
was blowing against the horses on the
home stretch. Village Farm money
made Robert ]. favorite at odds of 8
to before the first heat, while Patchen
sold at to 5.
In the toss for the pole Patchen won.
On the second score the two went away
neck and neck. Like a double team
they paced to the three-quarters, when
Geers pulled out. But Curry called
upon Patchen, and the great stallion
responded promptly. into the home
stretch they came with Patchen a
half length ahead. Geers took to the
whip, but it was of no avail, while
Patchen was going well within his
speed Time, 2:041s.
The second heat was repetition Of
the first, but in the third heat Patchen
fell back at the quarters. Robert
]. gained a lead of two lengths going
around the last turn, but Patchen came
up on the outside and finished in a
dead heat, though the judges gave the
heat to Robert J. In the fourth heat
both horses broke at the first furlong
pole. Patchen recovered first and took
a good lead down the back stretch.
Robert J. came on even terms at the
lower distance stand, but fell back and
broke into run, at which gait he
finished the mile all out
Alliance won the deciding heat in the
2:16 trot, and Falkland finally did
the same in. the 2:23 class. The other
races, save the three-year-old trot, were
sharply contested. Attendance, 10000.

tied Though That the Defender Readily
outclasses the Jubiiee-An Uninterest;ng
Race.
Newport, Aug. S.-The attempt to have
an extra yachting week by the offer
of special cups has proved quite fail
ure, and there is considerable doubt
whether or not the money already col
lected for such an event next year Will
be donated to the purpose. There were
just short of a dozen entries last night
for to-day's consolidated events as en-
forced by Wednesdays heavy weather,
but this morning in place of five class
es to start there were but two of two
boats each, and they furnished no ex-
citing sport since Defender readily
outclasses the Jubilee and the Margue-
rite is no match for Emerald. So mild
was the interest that even the steam
yachts which usually go out to all
events crowded with guests failed to
make any show Of themselves outside
of the harbor. Even aboard the COM
mittee tug there was total absence
of interest.
| 1t was nearly IL 80 when the schoon-
ers We're ready for the start. Emerald
was first to cross and after standing
on the starboard tack for several min
| utes laid over on the port and stood in
| to the Narragansett shore Marguerite
stood much less on the starboard, so
| that Emerald, by superior outfooting
and outpointing, almost on the begin
ming of the first leg secured so good a
! windward position as to put the schoon-
| er we'll in the lead.
| OF the sloops Jubilee was first to cross
| by having stood off we'll to leeward of
the lightship long after their time to
start.
| Immediately on crossing Jubilee came
about and stood inshore While Defender
held to the starboard somewhat longer
The two crafts held on to the port tack
until the Narragansett shore was Gloss
under their lee. Defender had wei
out-pointed Jubilee and came about a
| 11;51;25, while the Jubilee followed a.
| 11:52, Both crafts were carrying clut
| topsails and No. jib topsails. On this
l
minute later, but was steadily losing
ground On next tack both came abou
together, a long tow of barges forcing
| them inshore. Again they tackled 70
gether and for the next reach Defender
cleared the red buoy off Point judith
while Jubilee was obliged to make n
additional tack. At the first turn De
fender rounded at 12:39:4O, Jubilee IL:
4716, Emerald 12:51:07, Marguerite IL:
57:30.
The second leg was but long reach
as was the third and last. The sec
ond stake was turned as follows:
Defender 1:17:3O, Jubilee 1850, Elmer
aid 1 81 rs. Marguerite 1900.
AS Defender was about two-thirds ov
er the third leg the stops blew out o
the club topsail, letting 1t clear Of th
yard and allowing the wind, whicl
had freshened from a very mild breez
at the start to a good strong south
easter at the finish, to spill itself ou
and so somewhat reducing Defender
time, but a beat of 9 minutes over
twenty-one mile course is sufficient
4 decisive for even Jubilee to bow under.

games here this afternoon with the
Brooklyns and won both. Both VIC

Bostons used their old-time batting or

tage. A big crowd was present. The
Bostons' batting was clean and hard,
Duffy and Bannon doing finely in both
games. In the first Stivetts pitched
great ball and after the first inning
showed great command and effective
ness. He worked like a fiend, batting
| hard and fielding his position so we'll
that he was tired He started in to
pitch the second game, but retired after
| the third inning as he did not have

and his delivery was in such striking
contrast that the Brooklyns could hot
make him out, although toward the
close they were batting him. The
