TRIALS BEGIN.
Novice Beagles Afforded
Good Sport at Oxford.

Oxford. Nov. 1.-The fifth annual
field trials of the New England Beagle
Club began here today The judges are
H. b. Tallman of Providence, r. l., and
George B. Appleby of this town, and
their office win be no sinecure, as many
Of the best beagles in this country are
entered in the various stakes
The hunt this morning was on the
McCabe farm, south of the village,
and this afternoon on Huguenot Hill
was the scene Of the trials. The sport
began with the running of class A.
This stake is open to all beagles IS
inches and under in height that have
not won first prize at any recognized
field trial.
The first brace to come before the
judges was Thomas Shallcross' Helen
Briggs and Hampstead Beagles' Rusty,
Both hounds hunted well, but after a
rabbit was started they failed to drive
it properly and the race was a poor
one. Then came Howard Almy's Buck
ellew and Thomas Shallcross's Baronet.
The latter had the advantage in a
short run.
The third brace was A. j. Purinton's
Willard r. and William SaXby's Dimes
Della. These little hounds ran fast,
snappy race, in which Della's work was
the best, though Millard's was also ex
cellent. This finished the morning
hunt and the party now gathered at
the Clark farm, where Landlord Bacon
had spread a tempting lunch for the
hungry hunters.
After full justice had been done to
clam chowder sandwiches, doughnuts
and coffee, the hunt was resumed, with
A. d. Fiske's Sportsman and Howard
Almy's Miss Quynn. Three rabbits
were started and the best work was
done by Sportsman, who ran with
great speed and true to the TRAIL J. w.
Appleton's Dahlia and Howard Almys
Lewis were the next couple Dahlia
was wild and Lewis was steady, so
won the race. Bellman and Trick were
the last brace in the first series. Trick
however, did not run for competition.
Bellmans work was good
The judges now selected the beagles
that had done the best in the first
series to run in the second. The first
brace was Dimes Della and Sports
man. Two rabbits were started and
both were driven into the ground after
short runs. Both hounds did excellent
work
The next couple was Willard r. and
Helen Briggs. Willard was too fast for
Helen, and easily led in a good race
Baronet and Bellman were the last
brace of the day. They started a rab
bit that led a long chase in a swamp
and gave altogether the best sport of
the afternoon. 1t was a splendid ex-
hibition of beagle work and sent
everybody home in good hun1or. In the
last of the race Bellman got far in the
lead and had everything his own way.

DEFENSE STILL RAGGED.
But Eighteen Graduate Coaches at Har-
ward VIII Try to Remedy the Fault.

Cambridge, Nov. 1.-The presence of
Is graduate coaches was the feature
Of the practice Of the Harvard foot
ball team this afternoon. Among the
coaches was r. D. Wrenn, 95, who has
recovered from the illness to which
he succunbed on his return from the
campaign in Cuba with the rough
riders.
The first and second elevens were
given two 25-minute halves, during
which some fairly snappy work was
done. The first eleven put up a good
defensive game. although the rush line
half backs showed the need of coach
ing in this part of the work The de-
fensiye work was rather more ragged
than usual. All the regular varsity
players except Cochrane. Donald and
DAILY were in the line. Secret practice
Will be continued till Friday, and the

RACING BOARD is FIRM.


Baltimore Md, Oct. S1.-Chairman AL
bert Mott of the League of American
Wheelmen racing board was found last
evening in his cozy home in the suburbs
of Baltimore. and he talked quite freely
on subjects pertaining to cycling in gem
eral and to racing in particular.
rs there any truth in the talk that
there is to be a general reinstatement of
outlawed riders?" Mr., Mott was asked.
Not a bit of it., replied Mr. Mott, de-
cisively. Every outlawed rider who
wishes to regain his lost standing in the
League of American Wheelmen may do
so, but only by the payment Of whatever
''Will there be no remission of fines,
under any consideration"
IF you mean, will we reinstate riders
without the payment Of fines, as matter
Of policy most emphatically, MOI OF
course, II any man shows us that his fine
is uniustly imposed, why, he Will be dealt
with leniently or his fine entirely RENTED
For instance" said Mr.. Mott. suppose
a man is outlaWed and suspended or fined
for entering an unsanctioned meet, and he
assures me that he was entered without
his authority or consent, why l have no
alternative but to reinstate him without
the payment of fines. Any other course
would be unjust to him, and would great
ly tnjUre the SPORT
There are about twenty riders who are
now on the outlawed list, This includes
EQdt6 Bald Earl h1SeF ana one OF TWO
equally well known riders"
''Have any of these big men applied for
reinstatement?
None" was the reply.
How about Major Taylor's reinstate-
ment?' he was asked
Major Taylor paid up his fine, every
cent Of it. Every suspended rider knows
and has been Informed that his fine Will
never be committed. Rather it viii be in
creased for continued offenses
In reply to a question as to who had
applied for reinstatement, Chairman Mott
said, II would prefer not to answer that
question for, many reasons. Mainly. be-
on hand. l will say. however that there
are about a half a dozen who wish to
make peace with the l.. A. w. in order
that they may ride.
what is your feeling in regard TO six
day raclng?' the correspondent then
asked Mr.. Mott.
II am down on it." he replied forcibly.
st certainly is not conducive to the
health of the riders and the public does
not look with favor on the matter. Indeed.
] believe 1t is unlawful in one or two
places to hold such contests at all. Six
day racing was abolished at the last ma
tional assembly OF the League Of Ameri-
can Wheelmen, held in St. Louis in Feb
ruary the limit set for continuous racing
being seyenty-two hours or three days.
There is certainly more to be said against
l42 hour races than in favor of them, but
the fact that the public does not favor
its continuance is enough to put 1t out of
fashion
"Will the records made in six day con
tests stand II these contests are aban-
doned?' was the question
Yes, / suppose sOy3
Then the men who hold these records
have no chance Of losing thelr honors?'
1T would seem not replied Mr.. Mott.
WILL RUN TO BOSTON AND BACK.
