TWBNTY-sEOOND WINS THE CUP
Fourth Regiment Failed TO Make the
xvi Expected at tho CarDfvaI.

The victories obtained last night in the
games in connection with the carnival OF
the Military League at Madison Square
Garden ensures the Twenty-second Regi-
ment of Brooklyn the retention OF the
championship cup of the National Guard,
won by them last season. The Fourth
Regiment of this city, which at the be-
ginning of the week was considered a
dangerous rival, has failed to make the
showing anticipated and the Brooklyn sol
diers will carry off the largest share OF
the prizes. The defeat last night of Jer-
ONE Buck and Charles Sulzer of the
Fourth in the 100 yards run trial heats,
upon whom so much depended, n Chris
tianson's failure in the one-mile run,
were the decisive points in the struggle,
and the Jersey City athletes will have
to hustle to finish in second place. AS
expected, the Twenty-second Regiment
carried off the honors in the bicycle races
and secured the first two places in the
one-mile run, besides leading in several
heats Of the 100 and 220 yards hurdle race.
Tonight will terminate the carnival and
all unfinished races will be decided, to-
gether with the one-mile relay race. The
