RAIN SPoILs THE SPORT.
Only One Race Rowed i'm the Co
Iumbia A. C. Regatta.

Jupiter Pluvius Unexpectedly took
hand yesterday afternoon in the Columbia
Athletic Club regatta and spoiled what
promised to be most interesting pro-
gram of races. On account of this inter-
ference from rain and wind, the opening
number of the card was put off until the
downpour of rain ceased and then it was
too late to row more than the one race,
and that the eight-oared event.
The crews which competed were a
junior and a picked one. A large
number of friends of the club were on
hand to witness the sport. but many left
when the threatening clouds blew up and
when the race was rowed there was only
a fair attendance, mostly fair friends of
the oarsmen.
Those who remained were treated to a
fine exhibition of the art of rowing. Dane
ing followed the race. The junior crew
won by about two lengths. The winning
eight had in it five of the High School
crew and their work was of the highest
order throughout the race, which was a
mile straightaway, rowing down the river
and finishing opposite the boathouse, The
crew rowed in splendid form and showed
considerable speed, though it was never
called upon to do its best, and Stroke
Hecox, instead of squirting, very wisely
set a steady pace, which was effective
and kept the boat on even keel.
AT the word go from Referee-Starter
John Doyle, president of the Potomacs,
the Juniors were the first to get away and
at once took the lead and were never in
danger of being caught, and crossed the
line easy winners. The time was not
taken.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
picked crew had had but little prac-
tice, the men pulled well together and
gave the juniors a good hard race,
although it was stern chase.
Lieut.. Hecox announced that the same
crews which rowed yesterday and all
the others which were prevented by the
weather from racing, will take part in
the second club regatta, which will be held
on Saturday July 9.
The crews were made up as follows:
Juniors: Hecox, stroke; Blackiston, Z;
Norwood g; Hunter, 5; Blandy, 4; Schayer,
8; Fowler, 2; Began. I; Midge Ross, cox
swain. Numbers l. 8. s, and are OF the
High School eight.
Picked crew-McGowan, stroke: Nc
Conville Z; Jacquet 6; Tallmadge, 5;
Humphreys, 4; Shannon, 8; Parsons, 2;
u cary, 1; Johnson, coxswain.

THE AMERICAN DERBY.
Pink Coat Wins the Stake by Half
n Length.

Chicago, June 25.-Pink Coat owned by
Woodford & Burkner and ridden by w.
Martin, won the American Derby at
Washington Park today. It was a splen-
did race, witnessed by 20.00O people, rep
resentng the society and wealth of the
city. The race was run over a soft track,
as the time, 2:42 1-2, indicates. a severe
rainstorm which fell during the night
made the track deep in mud, but strong
wind and the warm sun dried it out so
much that, at the time of going 10 the
post it was hardly more than four sec
onds slow to the mile. The race vas
spectacular from the start TO the finish.
There were seven starters.
The start was perfect, and around the
turn and down the stretch for the first
time five horses were abreast with Mirth-
ful slightly in advance of the rest, while
Pink Coat trailed along four lengths back
Of the leader. Mirthful continued to lead,
and at the end Of the first mile he seemed
to be galIoping in front, while Pink Coat
was second and Warrenton back three
lengths.
On the far turn Mirthful began to show
the effect of pacemaking and Pink Coat
passed him, while Caywood on Warren
ton set sail for the leader and straight
ened out for home. He, too passed Mirth-
ful and then began the struggle between
Pink Coat and Warrenton, which lasted
all down the back stretch. Slowly War
renton crep up to the leader, but the son
of Leonatus had strength and gameness,
and 1t became a question Of riding. Cay
wood did his best but Martin, perhaps,
outrode him, at least he managed 10 keep
his mount a half head in front until the
wire was reached. Isabey was two
lengths back with Mirthful a length back
of the third horse. The value of the
race was s12, ,420 Summaries:

WORLDS RECORD BROKEN.
Defeats Titus in the Twenty.
Vile Paced Rnce.

New York, June 25.-Tom Linton eyened
up matters with Fred Titus al the Kings
County meet at Manhattan Beach this
afternoon by beating him half a mile in
the twenty-mile paced race. though he
had to ride in the dark 10 do it. The big
paced event OF the day was delayed be-
cause of the storm and the start was not
made until after : o'clock.
In the last three miles Linton broke the
worlds record that McDuffie established
only eight days before at Boston, and
had 1t been daytime the Englishman
would have continued and endeavored to
break the one hour record. The defeat
of Titus can be attributed TO poor pacing.
Lintons performance was an ideal one
and marked him as a man with whom
Michael viii have no easy argument when
they meet two weeks hence. The time
was 1853 As against the worlds record of
36:1S
In the short races the feature was the
winning of the quarter mile national
championship by Major Taylor in
blanket finish. There were only five men
in the heat, and at the tape not a half
length separated the foremost man from
the rear one. Taylor's victory over Sims
was one of inches. but the judges agreed
in picking the colored sprinter.
Nat Butler won the third heat of the
one mile professional handicap. but was
disqualified for getting away before the
pistol was fired.

For the past six years dealers in high-priced

Mile and TwO-thfrds

Boston, June 25.-William Martin,
known as 'Plugger Bill" easily defeated
Harry Elkes in the fifty-mile paced race
at Charles River Park this afternoon,
winning by a mile and two-thirds. Elkes
made a plucky fight up to the thirty
fifth mile, but after that he seemed to
lose strength and the race was only a
question of how much Martin would win
by.
The time for the distance was 1:4S:25,
ten minutes and sixteen seconds under the
record held by Elkes. Elkes's times was
1885.
The men were unlimited as to the num-
Der of machines and men, Martin had
forty-nine men mounted on two skies,
six quints and three triplets, while Elkes
had eight quints and three triplets. From
