40 THE WHITE BuILDING"
GENERAL SPORTING NOTES.
THE WHITE BUILDING. "

If the weather is agreeable on Tbanks-
/ giving Day number OF ha rness horse men
Will, IT is said, give matinee at Bright
wood Park. There will probably be three
races.
II is said that all OF the young bloods
recently signed by the New York baseball
club, with the possible exception of one
or two men, will be farmed out to minor
league teams, and If they develop into big
league stuff and they are needed they wiD
be called into service by the Giants.
That part OF the sporting fraternity herea.
bout that enjoys dog fighting is TO be
given great show, IL is said, on Thanks
giving Day. The dogs are now in training,
but to avoid the presence Of unwanted
guests the select few who are TO be al
lowed to witness the battle are not to be
enlightened as to where il Will take place
until the day it comes off.
Again talk is rife that Rusie is to be
shipped by the New York club, and that an
effort will be made TO secure Mcmahon,
Young or Nichols to take his place. Freed
man says big Amos is the greatest pitcher
on earth, but that he has outlived his use
fulpess for tue Giants.
The belief is pretty generally held that
Sunday baseball will be done away with
by the National League at it's annual meet
ing to be held in New York on Wednesday
Several league UlagDates who have hereto
fore been for it are now deadset the other
way.
An enterpr.sing Philadelphian has In
vented a bicycle handle bar that can be
instantly detached. Its value lies in pre-
venting persons who would steal from
jumping on i wheel and riding il away.
With the handle bar gone thief would
have no means OF guiding and the only way
he could accomplish his design would bs
TO pick the machine up and carry it off.
The name Of the woman who owns one OF
the greatest stables of light-harn rness horses
in the world is Mrs. Rita Hernandez de Alba
de costa Stokes. and she is the wife OF the
well-known New Yorker. Mr.. W L ID.
Stokes. She owns Beuzetta, 2.O6 ia; Au-
gle d.. 2.O7; Miss Rita, 2.0S Sd. and Josie
b.. 2-13 Ia, besides several other unde-
veloped trotters.
In the class for standa rd bred stations at
the Staunton, Va, Fair, L. X Bryan cap
tured first prize with the horse Nutsid, by
Sidney. and out of Marian. by Nutwood.
The horse is owned by ID. s. Jones, of New.
port News, Va.
Harley Davidson. of Toronto. the recog-
nized champion bicyclist of Canada, yes
terday rode u half mile, paced by d tandem,
in 90 seconds. He rode one of the quarters
in ~ seconds.
Riley Grannon announces that he win go
TO England next season to try his luck
against the English books.
1t is given as a rather remarkable
fact that Boston has had but three third
basemen since professional ball was in
/ augurated there in 1871. They were
Schafer, eight years; Sutton, seven years,
and Nash, ten years.

DEFENDERS BALLAST.
Suggestions From London for the Com

Suggestions From London for the Con-
duct of American Yachting.
London, Nov. 9.-The Pail Mall Gazette,
referring to Lord Dunraven's statement
relative to the contest for the Americas 8
cup, says:
Lord Dunravens allegation that the
cup committee knew of his charge that there
had been foul play in the measurementOft the
Defender and made no attempt To verify
1t is a most serious accusation.
IF the committee had investigated and
found that Lord Dunraven was wrong, they
could have declined to race with him again
with perfect propriety, not to say that they
could have hvrsewhipped him with equal
propriety.
But they did not take any action in the
matter. II the Defenders ballast was
doctored it must be certain that a number
of persons knew 1t.

READYFOR The RELAYRAC
1t Will Be- an Important and Inter-
esting Bicycle Event.
The Route TO he Gone Over and the
Military Men Who Have Been
Chosen TO Do the Riding.

Capt. WigEin and Lieut.. Libby, after
. hard struggle, have at last all of their
plans laid for the much.:alked-about relay
race of the military cyclists between Wash.
ington and New York, and, as has been
stated in The Times, the start will be made
about November %.
This viii probably be the most iInpor-
tant cycling event ever originated in this
city. 1t is to demonst rate the value of the
bicycle as military appliance. The race
is to be run with the sanction of Gen. Ord
way. Capt. wjggin will have charge of the
Washington end of the affair and Lieut..
Libby Will look after matters on the New
York end.
Twenty men are to be used 10 the race,
and they will be divided into ten pairs.
There are to be ten starting aud ten fin
fehing posts. These posts, with the dis
tance between each, the time 1t Is ex-
pected TO consume in riding from one 10
the other, and the men who will do the
riding, are as follows:
Relay No. 1-washington to Columbia,
twenty eight miles, two hours and thirty
minutes, wiggin and Durfee.
Relay No. 2-Cuiumbia to Baltimore,
twcnt, miles, two hours, Gather and Muul-
den.
Relay, No. 3-Baltimore TO Belair, twenty
one miles, two hours, Franz and Campbell.
Relay, No. 4-Belair to Havre de Grace,
twenty miles, two hours, Riva and Atkins.
Relay, No. 5-Havre de Grace TO Glasgow,
sixteen miles, two hours, Michael and
Gibson.
Relay, No. 6-Glasgow to Wilmington,
seventeen miles, two hours, Willis and
Bennett.
Relay, No.7- Wilmington to Philadelphia,
twenty-eight miles, two hours and thirty
minutes, Alexander and Bell.
Relay, No. s-Philadelphia to Trenton,
thirty-two miles, two hours and thirty min
utes. De Silver and Frech.
Relay, No. 9-Trenton to New Brunswick,
thirty miles, two hours and forty-five min
utes, Tierney and Prior.
Relay, No. 1O-New Brunswick to New
York, thirty-five miles, two hours and
forty-five minutes, Cibby and Pitkin.
The whole distance TO be covered is
fraction under $50 miles, and the ten
sets of men, Captain Wiggin and Lieu
tenant Libby figure, will go over it in
TWENTY-FIVE hours. At each post the men
will lie given assistance hy local wheel
men in the way of information as to roads,
their condition. &C.
1t VIII be observed that in the schedule
two hours are allowed Gather and Moul-
den 10 ride from Columbia to Baltimore,
o distance OF twenty-oDe miles, while the
same time Is given to Michael and Gibson
to ride from Havre &c Grace to Glasgow,
sixteen miles. This apparent discrepancy
is accounted for by the fact that the road
between Columbia and Baltimore is much
easier one 10 travel than that between
Havre de Grace and Glasgow. In each
instance, where these seeming incon-
sistencies appear, the roads and the ca
pability of the riders have been taken
into consideration, and the schedule is
believed 10 be as perfect one as could
be made up.
The outcome of the race is awaited with
much interest by military people and cyclists
generally.

CUTTING RATES.
The Pooling Agreement Already Suf-
fers From Secret Trickery.

The Pooling Agreement Already Suf-
fers From Secret Trickery.
Chicago, Nov. 9.-It Is asserted that sew
eral of the east bound lines from Chicago
and st. Louis are cutting rates badly.
Provision rates, it is said, are quoted
secretly at 20 cents per 100 POUNDS chi
cago to New York, the tariff rate being ~
cents. In some instances, it is said, even
a lower rate is being made.
These cuts, it is said, are not being made
by the freight departments OF the roads
direct, but by the fast freight lines over
which they operate.
Dairy rates, 1t Is reported, are being
cut 10 cents below regular tariff, both
from Chicago and st. Louis, by re-
frigerator line which operates to New
England points.
Traffic officials Of Western roads, who
have been In session at Excelsior Springs
all this week trying to arrange Western
tariff pool, were unable to reach con-
clusion and took an. adjournment last
evening, to meet again in Chicago next
Wednesday. -et5e
The great obstacle In the way of an a gree
ment is the Inability to agree upon per-
centages.
1t has been suggested to let A. C. Bird,
the chairman of the Western Trunk Line
committee, fix the percentages for the
various ruads, but the Kansas City, Fort
Scott and Memphis refuses tj Join unless it
b told beforehand just how. large per-
centage 1t % to have.

Driver of GrOcer's Wagon Testifies
Two Ways and Gets In Trouble.
Frank Beuchert, driver of grocer's
wagon, was arrested to-day by Policemen
Kilmartin and Flather for Detective Gal
lagher on a warrant sworn out by Marie
Demongeot, charging him with perjury.
The case is the result of some testimony
given by the defendant in a civil suit for
damages against his employers by the prose
cutting witness.
Some time ago Miss Demongeot was
knocked down by wagon driven by Beu-
ebert, and he was arrested. In the police
court he pleaded guilty, and was fined for
careless driving.
Then Miss Demongeot entered suit In
the upper court against the owner of the
wagon, and in testifying in that case Beu-
ebert denied ever having driven the wagon.
The case will he heard before Judge Miller
to-mOrrow.

NOTES ABOUT BOXERS.

1t is said that Dan Creeden is still suf
fering from the terrible thumps the coffee
cooler gave him In their recent fight in
London, and that IL will be some time vet
before he fully recuvers, if, indeed, he
fully recoyers at all.
The biggest party that has gone out of
this city in many day to see 4 similar
event -rill be that which will go to Baltimore
on Monday night to see Woods and Godfrey
fight, II all go who now say they will.
There seems to be growing feeling among
the sports here that Woods is going to win,
and some are willing ~ put up money that
way, or say they are.
II Peter Maher whips Steve O'DonnelI
on Monday night, which he is mighty liable
to do, another one of Brady and Corbetts
mouth made fighters will have gone by
the board. About every fighter they have
ever attempted to boost has turned out
bad investment.
Eddy Avery sees no chance to get on a
fight with Joe Bateman or any other boxer
anything near his pounds hereabuut, and
he will quit the town in disgust. Eddy
struck Washington at time when there
was general slump in his line. Maybe IL
he comes back later he will fare better.
LOvery, the boxer, who was matched
against Tody Banks the other day, is said
to be rated a corker by Horace Leeds, and
predictions are numerous that Tody is in
for a walloping. Tody can stand such an
experience with as much good grace as any
fighter In this neck of woods.
Johnny Glynn is at his Wilmington home
training for his go with Joe Bateman.
Johnny appears to be considerably put out
at the things that have been said about
him running away from his recent mach.
In q letter to The Times he says:
1.-The reason did not meet Bateman when
was in Washington was because the
Eureka Club wanted ME to box on per.
centage. This refused to do after saw
the condition of the club. / asked for
purse and they refused to give it, SO / made
up my mind there was no money in the
match for me and drew out.
1.-THE Vendome Club agrees to give
purse of 5000 for the deferred contest. 1
am down to weight. and in good shape,
and on the Goth 1 will show the people OF
Washington can repeat the dOee I gave
Bateman before. Ihave no fear of any white
man living at from 110 to 115 pounds"

E street northwest, it is stated, will shortly
be made defendant to a $25, 900 damage

from him. Mr.. Walkers attorneys are
SheIlabarger & Wilson. and Herbert N.
Locke. The papers are in their hands to
draw the declaration for the damage suit.
Mr.. shaffer, when asked, said the whole

foundation for the charges further than
that Mrs. Walker was friend Of his wife.
In this Mrs. Shaffer concurred.
