RACE TRACK AT ELkTON.
The Matter Called to the Attention of
the Grand Jury.

At the opening of the September term of
the circuit court for Cecil county at Elkton.
Nd, yesterday morning, Judge Frederick
Stump, in delivering his charge to the
grand jury, caused mo little comment by
laying before the jury the matter of gam
bling now being carried on in Cecil county
under the auspices of a Philadelphia syn
dicate. Among other matters the judge
called the jurys attention to the races
now in progress in the county at which
pools are sold and books made. He read
to them the act of 1894 passed by the
Maryland legislature which forbids book
making, pool-selling, &C., except once a
year for thirty days on the tracks of agri-
cultural societies and driving parks.
He said that the law. in his opinion. was
passed for agricultural fairs and driving
parks. naming Pimlico, Baltimore county,
for example. He said under the act passed
bookmaking &C., had been held for thirty
days In the fall of 1895 and in the spring
of 1896 on the track of the Cecil County
Agricultural Society at Elkton, which were
lawful. That afterward an association had
applied for incorporation and had been
incorporated, in which the purpose of
the corporation was stated to be for the
creation and maintenance of exhibitions
of trials of speed for the purpose of en-
couraging the breeding of a superior class
of horses" and nothing was said about
pool-selling or bookmaking.
while strict construction of the act might
hold that the act was Intended to apply to
any track whether in existence when the
act was passed in 1891 or not yet if that
construction was put upon it, in his opin-
ion, the effect would be to nullify the act
of 1894, and all that it would be necessary
to do to get rid of it would be to make
twelve tracks and have racing and pool
selling the year around, just as though
the act mad not been passed. Without
expressing any opinion as to the proper
construction to be put on the act, he re-
ferred the matter to the grand jury for
action Iii der the advice and discretion OF
| the states attorney.
Judge Stump added that If tracks con-
| tinued to be constructed Cecil county would
| be turned into perpetual gambling
! ground. He referred to the making o.
tracks at Barksdale. the at Iron Hill
| the meeting now in progress at the same
place, and the track now under construc-
| ton at the same place. A track is also
about completed at Singerly's.
| 1t is said that if it is not thought ad
| visable to proceed by arrest and indict
| ment of those who are engaged in the
| pool-selling business. &C., steps abou
| to be taken 10 bring it to end by Other
effective means.

Captain Donovan the New Manager
for the Pittsburgs.

An expected change in the management
of the Pittsburg base ball club was made
shortly after the first game at Pittsburg
yesterday afternoon. Connie Mack, who
has had charge Of the club for two seasons,
gave way to Patrick Donovan, right fielder
and captain. Mack will become a Western

Milwaukee club of the Western League,
having also purchased an interest In the
team. The Pirates have not been meeting
with the success anticipated by the owners
the past season. They did not win at home
Mack was held responsible for these re-
suits. Early in the season the manage
ment found fault with his manner of deal
Ing with Pitcher HaWley. Mack believed
IN moral suasion. rather than heroic meth
eds. in treating some cases. Not long ago
it was reported that the club was about to
engage Frank Selee of the Boston club for
the vacancy. Mack will continue in charge
until the end of the season.

again ride in the amateur ranks This will
be gratifying news to his large number Of
friends. who regretted his practical sus-
pension some days ago by the chairman of
the league racing board. No one is more
delighted than Sims himself. and yesterday
at the racs meet at International Athletic
Park he received the congratulations of
number of friends.
1t will be remembered that Sims received
notice from the chairman of the racing
board, about month ago. informing him
that If he raced again as an amateur he
would be suspended pending an investiga-
ton of his status. This was a practical
suspension. and lad Sims rode again he
would have been thrown into the :,rofes-
sional ranks. Not desiring to ride as such
he wisely refrained from entering any
races, and with the result that his amateur
status has been restored to MIN once more
Since his suspension his friends have been
without avail. Several personal visits We're
made to Philadelphia to see Mr.. Geo d.
Gideon. the chairman CT the racing board,
but he was obdurate. A petition signed
by nearly all of the local League of Ameri-
Wheelmen officials and almost all Of
the bicycle agents requested the removal
of the suspension. but the result was a
curt letter, the substance of which was
published in The Star at the time. Mr..
Gettinger treasurer of the United Wheel
men, and president of the Arlington Wheel
men, while IL Philadelphia, several weeks
ago. paid Mr. Gideon a personal visit in
hopes of having MIN change his mind, but
in this he was disappointed.
Last week Sims was in Philadelphia, and
Saturday he called on Mr. Gideon and had
long talk with him over the matter. He
convinced the chairman of his mistake, and
assured him of his (SimsD amateur stand
ing. Several old charges against Sims
were brought up. which resulted in his sus
pension for a time at Springfield last year
while in class b, and in this Sims gave a
perfectly candid story. He had been sus-
pended because it was alleged that Sanger
| had cashed a check for him. The check
was not cashed by Sanger, but by some one
| else, and Sims SO stated. His manner made
| a favorable impression upon the chairman,
and he asked Sims If he cared 10 ride any
more this season, and the Washington boy
responded in the negative.
| well, next season you can begin racing
| as an amateur again." said he, "and We
| will turn new leaf.
This satisfied Sims, and he came home
! rejoicing.

Francis Patrick Slayin. known in his ma

was beaten down in the fifth round of his
boxing contest with Stephen ODonnell. his
countryman, last night, at Maspeth. L. /.
1t was purely contest between science and
youth on the one side and dogged deter
rlination and experience on the other.
O'DonneI represented the first-named quail
ties and Slavin's pluck and endurance could
not last against the fusllade of left-hand
jabs and right-hand swings sent at him.
Still the ccrnstalk' was not knocked out.
Through his chief ring adviser, Ted" Alex
ander, this was averted. Alexander tossed
up towel acknowledging defeat when his
principal, bleeding and with both hands
down. stood in his own corner at the mercy

Scrappy Joyce's men through errors ana

only hit in the game that counted for more

stumbling block of the Senators, and mis-

plate with such rapdity that only three OF
the local players could connect safely with
his delivery. These three-De MontreE1ile,

fees that contributed materially toward

The runs were made mostly in pairs, and
errors on the part of the home team were
responsible for nearly all of them. The
visitors played perfect fielding game, Da-
Wis and Gleason carrying off the honors.
In the third Joyce was thrown out at the
ball thrown to Cartwright that journeyed
or TO right field. But Lush threw into Nc
Guire's hands, and the captains effort was
in vain. Lush threw another New Yorker

AFTER CoRBETT AND sHARkEY.
San Francisco Clubs Negotiating for
the Contest.

the Contest.
SAN FRANCISCO, September 22.-Satur-
day night last Marager Groom, who was
slightly nettied because an offer of $4,000
telegraphed to Corbett and Sharkey a week
previous had been treated with what saw
ored of silent contempt, sped another
coupled message over the wires warning
the big Druisers that the National Clubs
offer would remain open only a week
longer Yesterday Groom. had a dispatch
from Corbett stating that if the club would
post the amount of the purse IN responsible
hands, with the understanding that Cor
bett and Sharkey were to receive The full
amount, whether the fight tool. place or
not, the offer would be accepted.
Corbett said that Sharkcy and himself
had decided to box their ten rounds on
some date between November 20 and 90
While Groom on a still hunt for mis-
associates in the fght-promo;ing line to
Jay Corbetts S suggestions before them, he
was shown an evening paper, which con-
tanned an article setting forth that Mr..
Ellinghouse, representing the Eureka Club,
had secured from the supervisors permit
for the Corbett-Sharkey contest. 1t said
in the article that the fighters had ac-
eepted Ellinghouses offer Of $l2.r0 for ten
rounds, and that the fight would take place
Thanksgiving evening.
Groom then did a h:t of telegraphng on
his own account. He wired Corbett to
know II the rews regarding the Eureka
offer was true. If it was he said that, of
course, the National Club dropped out as
bidder. but that if Corbett still desired TO
accept the Nationals offer, his demand on
! the matter of placing the SIoVt3 in re-
sponsible hands would be complied with.
Groom received no answer last night.
In regard to the Eureka Clubs transac-
| tions with Corbett, Mr.. Stockwell said last
night: We have been negotiating with
Corbett for ten days past. Some days age
| we sent him telegram Offering $4,000 for
| contest with Sharkey. On Friday last h'
| wired an acceptance, and then we forwarde'
a letter containing full particulars as to
| date and number of rounds. We suggested
| ten rounds and Thanksgiving evening as
| the date and We were sure our proposition
| was acceptable to Corbett ard Sharkey
Corhett certainly telegraphed us mis- ac
| ceptance, and / hardly see now he cal
| have accepted any other offer since that
