CHARLES WELLS of the Bay City Wheemen, Who Cefeate
the Crack Eastern Riders the Pavilion Last Night.

"boy wonder" as one of the speediest
riders of the world, for he earned his
iaurels only by defeating champions
Loughead disappointed his admirers
last night. He qualified in his heat, but
was shut out in the semi-final ofthe hall
mile.
T. II. White caused bad fall in the sec
ond heat OF the amateur handicap by his
reckless riding. He tried to take the pole
from Languetin on the last lap AMI was
thrown, bringing down both the other
contestants. Elford picked up his wheel
and started for the tape, but Languetin
managed to remount his and finished
first.
Alhorelle treated timseIf to tum BILE IN
the third heat after the finish. He ran off
the track and then tried to ride up one of
the steep banks. Result, badly damaged
bicycle, the rider unhurt.
Foster was crowded in one of the semi
finals after The taps had been passed, and
went down, escaping injury, however.
The star event of last evenings pro-
gramme was the half-mile open profess
sional run in six preliminary heats, three
were Loughead of Canada, Downing OF
San Jose, Stevens of Iowa and Dow of
Seattle. Stevens and Dow made the run
ming most of the way, but Loughead came
up and won as he pleased at the finish.
In the second heat were McFarl and
Olympic, Max Morris of Texas. f. M.
Byrne, Imperial, and Clarence Davis OF
San Jose. This was McFarland's heat
though Morris pressed him hard for the
honor.
Starbuck of Philadelphia, Whitman OF
Los Angeles and Bovee OF Texas COM
peted in the third. The much -vauntei
Starbuck did not qualify, the heat going
to Bovee by three lengths from Whitman.
c. S. Wells and W. A. Terrill were the
only contestants in the fourth. Wells
won by a narrow margin. In the fifth
were Jay Eaton of Chicago, Harry Terrill
of the Bay Citys and Eddie Allen of Spo-
kane. This was pretty ride. Allen tried
to steal march on the others by jump
ing ont early in the race, but the others
were hot after him and caught and passed
him just before the tame was reached.
Terrill got the decision, Eaton econd.
Then came the semi-finais, three In
mum ber, in the first of which the starters
were Loughead. Becker, Bovee and Ste
vens. Becker jumped to the front early
in the ride and gained q lead that the
others could diminish but little. Stevens
got the place. Referee Piummer disquali-
fed Becker and gave first place to Stevens,
which gave Boves second. The decision
pleased some of the audience, but the
noisier ones yelled for Becker, and for a

OAKLAND, CAL, March 23.--The Liver
more Wafer Company, William J. Dingee,
Frank ]. Moffit, William F. Boardman
and others have filed their answer to the
suit brought by John Aylward OF Liver
more.
They outline the procedure by which
the water company was formed, and state
that they paid to improve the property
$500, and not $4,000 as the complaint
states. They make an offer that, as an
evidence of their good faith. they are now
willing to transfer to the plaintiff. or to
any person whom he may name, ali of the
stock Of the corporation upon repayment
to them of the money thay have ex-
pended. The personal charges OF fraud
are positively denied, and it Is stated that
the assessment OF $40 share was made at
a meeting OF the stockholders in conform
ity with the law governing corporations,
and that all of the stockholders have
paid the assessment except James STAN
ley. They deny that the assessment was
made for the purpose OF depriving Ayl-
ward OF his rights, or that #. H. Moffitt
took his office as president for any other
purpose than to serve the corporation,
and assert that the carrying out Of the
assessment will not deprive the plaintiff
of his property.

mating.
In the second semi-final were Wells,
Mcfarland, "Bob'' Terrii. and Morris.
Wells started one of his famous long
sprints on the second lap and kept it up
to the tape. winning cieverly. Terrill and
Mcfarland fought for second place, the
latter winning.
The starters in the third were Eaton,
Foster. Harry Terrill and Whitman. This
bade fair to be and proved hot run for
the money. Eaton took the lead from the
start and set lively pace, with the others
close after him. Eaton won out and Ter
rill took the place. Foster ran off the
track just past the finish and fell, but he
jumped to his feet, apparently unhurt.
This brought into the final Stevens,
was slow, but Mcfarland assumed the
lead at once and made it fast, the order
being-McFa Wells, Stevens. Eaton.
Wells rushed for the lead on the third
lap, and then ensued q pretty ride between
the four, all on even terms and all of
about equal speed. Wells had the pole
and would not give an inch. so the others
had to go around him.
Wells rounded into the homestretch in
the lead, with the others right on top of
him, but try as they would they could not
pass him, and he rode home a winner,
defeating Eaton by wheels length, with
Stevens just back of him. Mcfarland
was last. The time was :0S 2-5.
The opening event of the evening was
the five-mile club cup race, third heat,
contested this time by e. f. Russ of the
Oily mpic Club Wheelmcn, E. A. Bozio of
the Imperial Cycling Club and Walter
Leitch, riding for the Alameda Cy-
clers. The pacing was done by A.
Theisen and G. j, Birdsall of the Califor-
MIA Club on tandem.
The pace was a steady 2:20 clip from the
start. and was as pretty an exh bition of
amateur pacing as has been seen on the
track. The tandem dropped out when

Pat Dunne's Damien was in big demand
to win the mile selling affair, being heav-
lily played at odds of to 10 and TO 5. He
was evidently not up to hard race, for
after heading Cabrillo until the turn into
the stretch was made ne was collared and
beaten out easily by The Roman. which
horse got through next the rail. The win
ner opened in the betting at 8 to 5, reced-
ing to to 2, McLight, the other starter,
was beaten away off.
Scarf Pin, the fast filiy carrying Ed
Purser's colors, disposed of her com pany
in the final six-furlong dash without much
effort. Starting a to favorite, she got
the best OF a struggling start and led Eta

NOTES.

August Belmont, the millionaire New
Ysrk patron of the turf, was all onlooker
at the races yesterday.
Pat Dunno asked Owner Boots to price
The Roman after the sixth race, but Mr..
Boots said he guessed he would keep the
colt.
Many thought that with a more even
start Eta * would have beaten Scarf Pin,
but this hardly seems probable as the lat
ter won with plenty in reserve.
Unforeseen circumstances figure very
prominently in the victory of rank out
siders as rule The win of Russella was
indeed lucky one as Wyoming, badly
messed about and cut off down the back
stretch, was pounds the best horse.
