NOW THEY ARE TIED
WINQUIST AND MARTIN ARE NECK
AND NECK IN THE CITY TOUR
NEY.
M'MILLAN'S GRAND SPURT
81 PUT HIM IN THIRD
PLACE.
FIRST SERIES ENDS THIS WEEK.
Some of the Fallen FavOrites Will
Then BE Given Another Chance
for Life.

The tournament for the Hastings
medal and the championship at Foley's
continues to grow in interest, as each
successive block of games is played.
The American style has charm about
it of equalizing players and making
every contest an open one to the fin
ish, known to no other game of ten
pins. The present tournament is now
less than half over, and yet in this
early stage the leadership has changed
four times, and it is mere than likely
that before the close it will change
more than that number of times again.
Winquist has held the lead for the
past week.
He is now tied by Martin. Mcmillan
is third. The weeks play produced
many close and exciting finishes, and
some remarkably high scores. Dahle,
beside getting the highest so far 267,
got 229 and 201. He now has the high
score and his grand average is decid-
edly the best, having in thirteen games
played a grand average Of POS 1918.
Young Friend got a grand score on
Thursday evening against Mample of
PAS, Mample making 224 in the same
game. Van Bergen, Mannhart and
Clayton all went oVs- the 200 mark,
and Martin beat it twice McMillan's
play has astonished all who have
seen him do his work. A very sick
man when the tourney commenced, he
was not able to play the first two
evenings, and is by no means a we'll
man yet. On each occasion he had to
play extra games to catch up, yet un-
der all these disadvantages he has not
only held his own, but has forced his
way to the very front. Mample has
been the unlucly man. With an aver
age of over 100 in twelve games, his
percentage is only $685. while one other
player, with a lower average, has
percentage of .571. Next week will
finish up all the games in the first
series, and according to present indi-
cations, there will be ten or twelve Of
the sixteen punched for first place.
Such a close and exciting race has
never before been seen on the alleys
here or elsewhere up to the present
time, and as four of the popular fa-
Vorites are now we'll in the rear, Mann
hart, Clayton, Schaller and Mample, it
is expected of them that they will pull
themselves together and forge to the
front in the next and last series. There
will be great disappointment should
they fail to do it.
In the eight games played last even
ing many changes were made in the
standing. Martin moved up to tie
with Winquist for first place, and Nc
MILAN, by winning his three games,
placed himself a good third. Schaller
moved up, and Dahle and Mannhart
fell off peg. Herges went. off a point
in losing the only game he played.
Haisley carried off the highest score
honors by grand one Of 235, against
Metz. Mcmillan, Martin and Mample
all went over the zoe mark, and Herges
got even 200 in the game he lost. All
the games in the first series will be
finished by Thursday next, and the
last commenced on Saturday.
The following is the summary of the
nights play:

THEY UPHOLD DUNRAvEN.
Talk That the Royal Yacht Squad
ron Will Take Action,

LONDON. March 7.--There is talk among
the members of the royal yacht squadron OF
drawing up resolution in answer to the New
York Yacht clubs expulsion of Lord Dun
raven Nearly all the yachting men defend
the managing owner of Valkyrie I'LL, on the
ground that his charge of excessive submer-
sion is frequently made, and many yachtsmen
claim that the Royal Yacht squadron backed
Lord Dunravep's challenge. The Yachting
World declares that the Royal Yacht squadron
cannot afford to have a leading member dealt
with in such summary manner without
either indorsing the action or loudly protest
ing adding: eve await the official pro-
nouncement with much interest,"
In spite of this, 1t is learned that it is not
likely that the Royal Yacht squadron will Of
ficially indorse the action. s ~ =N
A great deal. of interest has been aroused
here among yachtsmens by, the statement that
the Defender will certainly race in English
waters during the coming season.
The Field confirms the report that the Yacht
Racing association will not take any action
upon the expulsion of Lord Dunraven from
the New York Yacht club, and adds that his
lordship never advised calling a meeting of
the Yacht Racing association for such pur-
pose.
