THE KENTUCKY DERBY
Plaudit Captures the Big Stake
By Half a Length.
LIEBRR KARL RAN SECOND
The Winner Was in Second Place
Until the stretch Was Reached,
Then Gradually Closed Up. and
Passed Karl Fifty Yards Before
the FfBisi-sims's Great Riding.

Louisville, Ky, May 4.-The Tennessee
colt was the favorite with the talent be
fore the twenty-fourth derby was run
out, but he lowered his colors to the Ken
lucky candidate. a magnificent race was
run, the historic event being captured by
Plaudit, with Lieber Karl second. The
riding Of VIII. Sims won the race in the
last half mile just as he did with Ben
Brush two years ago The fight was all
between Plaudit and I4eber Karl for the
other two colts were hopelessly in the
rear by The time the event was three
fourths over. The time 2:o9, was behind
Ben Brush's 2:97 81 in 1886, but the track
was heavy.
Only four horses faced the starter. They
were Lieber Karl, Burns uD, Plaudit,
Sims, Isabey' with Knapp and Han d Or,
with Conley.
The start was an easy matter. They
ran nearly punched but in passing the
grandstand Karl was one and half
lengths in the lead with Plaudit second
and all running easy.
AT the finish OF the mile Karl led by
length and half. Plaudit second, head
in front Of Isabey.
Coming into the stretch Plaudit cut the
Forester colts lead down to a half
/ length.
Down the stretch they came, the two
! headers neck and neck. Fifty yards from
the wire Sims, by an almost superhuman
effort, lifted his lead 10 the front by half
length. He maintained this advantage
10 the wire, crossing the tape amid great
applause. Karl was very tired, while
Plaudlt was equally exhausted. The race

Standing of the Clubs.

New York May Especial l)-Nearly
four thousand persons witnessed the
game at Washington Park today. Con-
sidering the weather the attendance was
remarkable. and there is every indication
that the season will be a prosperous one
for the Brooklyn club, providing the
team wins fair percentage of its games.
With Doyle and Rietz added to the WASH
ington team, the visiting players We're ex-
pected to give the Brooklyns some
trouble but BARNES men won rather
easily.
Mercer was effective in all but the third
and sixth innings but Winnie seemed to
cast a gloom over the Washingtons by
his poor fielding. Two wild throws by
Mercer practically gave the Brooklyhs
five runs in the early innings.
The Washingtons then braced up and,
by scoring two runs. had a fair chance
TO overtake the home players. but four
additional tallles in the sixth inning
which were made on Wrigley's nigh
throw, base on balls a single, double
and a three bagger, brought JOY to the
rooters.
With a few more games Joe Yeager
promises TO make his mark in league

order, especially when the Washingtons
were in danger of scoring
The Senators had a golden opportunity

had hit safely Yeager sent Selbach to

WILL STRIKE A SNAG.
The Hawaiian Resolution When
It Comes Up at the Other
End Of the Capitol. I
TROUBLE WILL BEGIN ON MONDAY.

Matter Reported to the Senate After q
Very Brief Meeting of the Foreign AT
fairs neutrality-suspicious. Inclined to
Claim an Agreement That Its Considera-
ton Would violate-Annexation Reso.
luton Proves to Have Been Davis Work,
Not Newlands'.
Washington, June 1s.-Only about fif-
Teen minutes time was consumed by the
senate foreign relations committee yes
terday in reaching a conclusion to re-
port the resolutions for the acquisition
of the Hawaiian islands by the United
States. Only two of the Democratic
members-Turpie and Mills-were pres
ent at the meeting, and they contented
themselves by recording their votes in
opposition to a motion to report favor
ably. showing no disposition to delay
action by the committee. No Republic
an votes were cast in the negative, and
Davis stated that he was authorized to
cast the vote Of Morgan in the affirm
alive. The fact developed that while
the resolution first received the sanction
of the house it was prepared by Davis,
and no disposition was manifested to
change it in any respect.
No Talk Likely Till Next Week.
After the agreement to report the res
clution was reached there was some in
formal discussion as to when the senate
should be asked to take up the question
and it was decided that this should be
done today-the first practicable day
as one objection would have been suf-
f1cient to prevent the beginning of con-
sideration yesterday. 1t is possible
however, that after calling the matter
up today it may be allowed to go over
until Monday, as the opponents of the
resolution say they will refuse to assist
in making q quorum if the question is
pressed today. 1t is already becoming
evident that the reported understanding
among the members of the finance COM
mittee, which was reached during the
pendency of the war revenue bill, to the
effect that the Hawaiian resolution
should not come up for consideration
during the present session of congress:
will cut an important figure in the con-
sideration CT the question in the senate
That Mooted Agreement.
This matter was informally presented
to the Republican members oe the com.
mittee on behalf of the Democrats after
the adjournment of the committee meet
] ing yesterday, and they were informed
that the Democratic members of the
finance committee were generally dis
posed to contend that the agreement
was explicit to the effect that the Ia
waiian question should not be revived
in the serate during the present session
Some of the members of the foreign re-
lations committee stated that they hat
never before heard of the agreement
but all manifested disposition toinves
tigate the matter.
