Especial TO The Times,

New York, July 2s.-Tne Senators Won
today by outbatting the Bridegrooms.
Jimmy McJames was in the box for the
Joyceites and got the better of the argu-
ment against Kennedy, who toed the rub
ber for the Trolley Dodgers.
The Brooklyn Baseball team returned to
their home grounds today, after nearly
4 months absence in the West. The team
did fairly well on the trip, yet there was
not an outpouring of enthusiasts to vel
come them home.
Brooklyn does not admire q second divis-
ion team any more than do the followers
of the sport in this city, and in consequence
there We're not more than 800 people pres
ent to witness the reopenng Of the season.
The Washington team has been an uncer-
tain quantity for several Weeks aud the
game was an interesting one, the home
players excelling in field work and the
Senators outpa ying their opponents at bat.
AS batting generally wins games, the
Senators captured the game Kennedy,
barring n disposition to wildness, did good
work for six innings, but in tSe last three
lost control of the ball, and the Senators
scored enough runs to win the game, with
n few to spare.
The Washingtons earned five of the half
dozen runs scored in the last three innings.

VIII Try 1t Again.

The dispute which has arisen among local
wheelmen over the alleged record break
ing OF the time between Baltimore and
Washington by the col0red rider, W. Fl.
Washington. who claims to have made the
run in 2:15, and which was challenged
by Harry Park. whose time is one minute
longer. brings forth the following letter
from the colored rider:
Cycle Editor Times: AS there seems to
be an impression in the minds of the public
that did not break the Baltimore-Washinc-
ton road record and reduce the timeto 2:l5,
I will attempt the ride again in two weeks
time and set all minds at rest"

WON THE SINGLE sCULL.
Gaudaur Easily Came Out Eight
Lengths Ahead.

Halifax, n. s.. July 2s.-The weather
was grand this afternoon for the opening
events OF the carnival regatta.
1t was cucl and pleasant for the spec.
tators and the only difficulty for the oars
men was caused by pretty stiff wind,
making the water somewhat rough at the
beginning but it moderated almost to a
calm before the last race.
The single scull contest, the big event,
was concluded about 7:3O O'Clock. There
were seven starters -Gaudaur- Hanlan ),
Rubear, Durnap, Rogers, Casey and Levitt
The prizes were $500, $3.50 and 500. 1t
was pretty race AMI steraly fought near
the end for second place, but it was an
easy victory for the favorite, Jack Gaudaur
who pushed his shell in front at the start
and rowed quite leasurely over the three
mile course and finished ahead, apparently
without the least discomfort, by more than
eighth lengths.
The other men did not row very hard
the first half OF the course, reserving them
selves until after the turn On the way
down Lovett fouled a buoy and was upset,
being picked up by rowboat. While on
the way home Butear. who was behind
Hanlan, Durnan and Rogers, aud knew
that he had no show, rowed away from
the course. Gaudaur made the turn several
lengths in the lead. with DuInan and Han
Ian pretty even, with Rogers close behind
them. Rubear and Casey were already out
or the race. The contest, so far as Durnan.
Hanlan nd Rogers were concerned, began
as soon as they squared away for the finish
line.
Hanlan and Durnan were alongside each
other for fully a mile, straiDing every nerve
to gain an advantage over each other.
Durnan proved TO be the best slayer of the
two. and when half a mile from the line
gradually drew away from his uncle.
rogers, Throughout the struggle between
the Toroptoans, had kept well up to
them and now began to row rapidly and
gain on them A quarter of mile further
oD the three boats We're tapping each
other, Rogers slightly ahead of Hanlan and
DurDan only a few feet in advance of the
Saratoga oarsmaD.
lt was !, splendid squirt by the latter,
but he had evidently saved himself just
a little too long Had he put forth his
final effort a few minutes earlier be might
have captured the second money. 1t was
nip and tuck between the trio for the re-
mainder OF the distance, but the relative
positions were unchanged when the line
was crossed. Durnan's bow was about five
feet ahead OF Rogers boat, and the latter's
bow only four feet ahead of Hanlan's.
Gaudaur's time was 20:25, which, con-
sidering that the water was n little lumpy
when the race began and the full course
was three-miie one, was almost up To
expectations Haniau pulled the fastest
stroke of all the competitors, reaching
"a at one time in the race.

company, in replying to the arguments ad-
vanced by Judge Henry Koeler and D. r.

length that as the Santa Fe was "a land
grant road and by the act Of the congress
was a post route forever, the federal courts
had jurisdiction in all cases brought by it
or against it; that it's obligations to the gov
crnment were not impaired by the recent re-

change of the title Of the company. Early
