the experiment next year when he returns to
England to ride for the Lorllard. Bcresford
combination. Meanwhile he will fill his contract
with the Fleischmanns, which calls for his SER
vices in the saddle here during the coming sea-
son..
When questioned regarding his plans Sloan
said that hc never had any intention of asking
for his release from the Fleischmann contract.
He also denied that any overtures had been
made to him to ride for the Prince of Wales,
and that such n rumor must have been in
spired by some one who got the two Bcresfords
mixed, as he did most of his riding for Lord
William, while the Princes racing interests
are largely looked after by Marcus Boresford.
Sloan then exploded the fairy tales about his
breaking the bank at Monte Carlo, but mod
estiy admitted that he had quit the game about
$5, 900 ahead.
As regards his experiences with ,Engishmen
and their racing methods Sloan had nothing
but kind things to say. The turf going, the
wide strlightaway stretches. and tho absence
Of dust suited him first rate. and he also found
il easy to get along with the native jockeys.
He was agreeably surprised to find that there
were no deliberate attempts at "pocketing' and
that whenever rider got into n tight place he
had only to sing out to the others to get more
room. Another custom that suited him
the waiting policy of the jockeys. They rarely
scrambled:to beat the flag. and he was gener-
ally able to get away well and do mis- waiting
in front. Sloan would not discuss the official
verdict in tho Cambridgeshire. which placed
his mount st. Cloud H., second, but it is clear
that he is still nursing the Illusion that he won.
In talking of the class of horses abroad.
Sloan said that tho best of them are real flyers.

The unprejudced observer must admit that
Alb understand each Others hands much bot
ter in this deal than in the othcr.. How smoothly
everything goes down to the eighth trick, and
then how softly leads that supporting Jack
through the king and makes his partners little

Just plain common sense marred only by tho
original lead of the club ace. when the singleton
would have done Just as well for a starter.
Judging from this example. Albany will soon
have some very creditablc examples OF experts
at the commons game.
The Park Club seem to have won the A. w. l..
trophy from Baltimore the result of two
deals, Nos 43 and IA, on which Park gained
nine tricks Deal No. ~ is especially interest
ing from the fact that it discloses remarkable
difference in the tactics used by two different
members of the same team. In the original play
Baltimore has the opening lead. and begins with
q trump, which is q very forward game. since he
has nothing to Justify such an opening. and ex-
poses himself to the disadvantage of leading
away from single honor in the trump suit. On
tho everyday. tho Baltimore player with Y's
cards has q long and practically established
suit. and certain card of re-entry. yet ho Is
afraid to lead trumps. AS forward trump lead
in the original Toses two tricks; and VS. failure
to lead trumps on the overplay loses three more.
This would suggest that had each Of these play
ers occupied the others position the trophy
might still havo been in Baltimore. That 10

from long.suitism to shorteuitism, The deal

tion as strictly lonR.sut town. ho docs not like
TO start right out with singleton. but beats the
devil round tho stump by making just one load
with winning card from his long suit and
then rushes off to play the ruffinR game.
This was quite a common dodge at tho seventh
congress. and THE SUN has the records OF
several such hands In which tho singleton.
whether led originally or after the long.suiter
had stified his conscience by leading the ace OF
another suit first, secured large gains. THE
SUN published one OF these hands on Aug. Is,
1897. in which It was shown that the Minncapo-
lis team. strict long.suiters," lost two tricks
by giving up such n valuable card rs the ace of
long suit before leading the singleton.

Tod Sloan, the popular American jockey, re-
turned from England yesterday, after a rather
sensational campaign on tho British racing
circuit since he went over. early in the fall.
He arrived on the Cunard liner Campania,
which reached her dock shortly before 10
o'clock in the morning. and received a rousing
reception from several friends and admirers
assembled at the pier. Sloan was the first
passenger to skip down the gangway, and he
was clearly delighted to reach his native country
again. He had as a travelling companion Ed
Gains of st. Louis, who has been with him
during his tour abroad. AS soon as the pair
got their luggage cleared they hurried to the
Imperial Hotel. There the little Jockey held
quiet levee during tho afternoon, and fought
all his foreign battles over again for the benefit
of inquisitive friends
He exhibited with considerable pride a gold
cigarette case presented to him by Lord Will

Mrs. Durston Has N Most Exciting tx
perisnce With n Frightened Horse.
Last evening. just after the arrival of
the train from Butte. there was n very
exciting time down near the station.
when a horse driven by Mrs. J.. II.
Durston became frightened and started
to run away. The animal was attached
TO a buggy into which Mrs. Durston
had just stepped. She a one of the
reins in her hand, but the other lay
the ground. 1t is probable that
she gave the single rein a sudden pull
in trying to get hold of the other and
turned the horses head. causing him To
take fright. The animal started off at
top speed. dashed across the five or six
railroad tracks. flew on through the
rough ground north of the railroad and
was finally stopped near the mattress
factory. In its course the horse sprang
over the depot platform. which is at
least a foot above the ground. causing
the buggy to go into the air with
alarming suddenness. Some of those
who witnessed the runaway say that
Mrs. Durston was sometimes three feet
in the air and at other times thrown
down into the bed of the buggy. When
the runaway was finally stopped 1t was
found that no injury had been done
either to the lady or e the outfit. 1t
is considered To be one of the most for
tunate escapes that could have oc-
