HOW BURKE WON.
Bernie Wefers Talks of His Recent
Defeat.
Says He Was Fairly Outrun But He
Wants Another Go.

Silence Is golden. The aphorism applies
with peculiar force to men who have been
beaten in any game In life, whether IL be
sports, politics or business. The world
does not like loser generally, but with
"bad loser" 1t has no patience have no
excuse TO offer, therefore, for my defeat by
Tom Burke, champion quarter mile run
ner of the world, In our 440 yard dash at
Manhattan field short time ago. Burke
won fairly and squarely. Those competent
to judge are good enough TO say that 1t
was the hottest, aercest, gamest race they
ever saw. The fact that Burke broke his
own record OF 40 seconds made In the In
ternational matches between the London
and New York Athletic clubs last year
and on soft, clayey track went In 4S 40
seconds, only one-twentieth OF o second
behind Lon Myers famous time Of 4s%
seconds on a cinder path, shows that 1t was
q fine performance.
While have no excuses TO offer for my
defeat, am not satisfied with the result
and want special race with Burke at the
same distance as soon as may be. My
friends think am entitled to It, They
say, and with some reason, that had not
time to properly prepare for 440 yards, as

100 and 300 yard dashes. They also claim
that as had TO run trial and final heat
In the 100 and eco yard dashes on the
same day, both of which won, while
Tom had only to reserve himself for one
grand effort, could not have been at my
best.
Idon't stand on this, however. Thought
/ knew what i was about i did not un-
derrate Tom Burke bit, but made up
my mind to go for what the newspapers
facetiously termed the triple crown" at
the championship meeting of the Ameri-
can Athletic union. i knew that 1t would
be no disgrace to be beaten by so grand
and game "a runner as Tom Burke, but /
expected TO win all the same.
Many people wondered why did not
start TO make the pace at once, instead OF
allowing Burke TO do so. Well, the reason
Is simply this; ] had run my trial and
