Grsos Hastings wins st neaayiro IN Pas
Time.

BOSTON. Aug. es.-The New York mare. Grace
Hastings. completely upset all the calculations
in the unfinished 2:l1 trot at the Readyille
track to-day. Baron Rogers had been Q top
heavy favorite from the early pools, and his
losing the nrst heat to Athanio had made no
difference in the choice Of the pu bile, as he won
the second heat very handily. But with tho
FIRST heat to-day Grace Hastings put in the fast
cot trotting heat Of the season, and In 2:os de-
feated the brown stallion which sports the colors
of the millionaire owner. J. Malcolm Forbes.
With one heat In such time, Nick H~ubinEer,
Tho starch merchant from New Haven. plunged
boldly. In the next heat Baron Rogers was
right at the throatlatoh Of the mare at the wire,
but lost all his chances in the deciding heat by
an early break. Little Alcidalia made Grace
Hastings act like q tired marc in the last heat,
but she did not get through from the bunch
early enough to DO really dangerous. Passing
Belle had things all her own way in tho 2:25
pace. Tho rich Massachusetts Stake for 2:l5

Century Road Ciub Accepts eenc Records
Sunday Ciub Runs. Routes ana Eetes.
The vigilance exercised by the constables in
the country towns this year in apprehending
vheelmen who exceed the speed limit has
aroused q feeling among riders that these sub
urban officials are making a mark of them this
year. In different towns tho speed ordinance
varies, and often riders unconsciously violate
the law. Metropolitan club men have been ar
rested and fined in Long Island and New
jersey frequently under circumstances where
discharge with a reprimand would have been
adequate. To show that discrimination IL
made In the arrests for fast riding, wheelmen
point TO tho performance OF A. ". Evans OF
New Brunswick, who rode from this city TO
Philadelphia and return one day last week at
record speed and was not bothered by the con.
stablea. 1t 10 felt that unless riders are apprc-
hended when racing on the road or riding at a
speed that IL dangerous some consideration
should be shown to them when arrested away
In the country, as tho violation In the majority
Of cases 10 unintentional.
The announcement that the bicycle tube man
ufacturers In England and this country have
como to an agreement In relation to the future
prices Of tubing WAS confirmed by prominent
American trade people in this city yesterday.
The leading American manufacturer have been
in consultation with the tube makers OF Bir-
ninsham for some time. and 1t is anticipated
that every tube maker will Join the proposed
combine. The object Of the combine is to sup
ply tubing at q Fixed price, which 1t 10 expected
will help to maintain the prices on bicycles and
compel some OF tho smaller concerns. who make
a specially OF cheap wheels, to withdraw from

tween Jimmy Michael, the Welsh flyer, and J.
b. Mccarthy, Torouto's fastest wheelman, was
run at the island last evening. II was wit
nesse 0 by 5000 persons and was probably the
best race Of the kind ever seen IN Canada. The
men were paced by a quad. a trtplet, and tan:
dem. In the first heat, q nile, MichAel's quad
did such poor work that lie was beaten out easily
by Mccarthy, who made the distance in l minute
80 90 seconds from a su nding sLart. Michael's
PAGERS were hot fast enough for Linn and lie was
not in il at all In the second heat, also a
mile, Michael. who appears TO be up 10 ali tho
t;!cks of the track, stole a march on Mccarthy.
He managed by clever riding 10 steal the To-
Fonto mans PAGERS, and Mccarthy was forced
to take cp Che WelshmAn's quad" But 10
found that IL was not fast enough for him and
be died on behind Michael but gould not get a
chance TO pass him, and Michael won IN l min.
ute g. is seconds.
The final heat was two miles, and Michael
won II quito easily. Mccarthy tried 10 keep
his own PAGERS by beating out Michael al his
own game, but the little welshusn was too
clever for him ana Kept his ground all the way
and won in 3 minutes IS rs seconds- Miehael's
