TAYLOR'S RACE.
Maj. Taylor had little difficulty in add
ing the mile professional championship
to his laUreis. All the preliminary heats
were marked by good finishes, except
that won by Taylor, who easily won. The
most interesting were the third. in which
Nat Butler cleverly disposed of R. Nc

which Angus Mcleod, the fastest of the
Canadians, disposed of Bowler of Chi
cago, in rattling finish In the final
Nat Butler took the lead at the start
Major Taylor dropping into last place.
The pace was slow. On the back stretch
IN the second round there vas some
pretty maneuvering for place, and when
1t was over the Major had dropped into
the position he wanted, second. with
Butter leading. The men began riding
at the three-quarters. Mcleod went to
the front with a rush, and ATTEMPTED to
make runaway OF it, but the others
were not to be denied, and when they
rounded into the stretch Mcleod was
still leading, with the others we'll bunch
ed behind him. Half way down the
stretch the Major had the race wei! in
hand, and a great fight was on between
Tom and Nat Butler ana Mcleod Fifty
feet from the wire Mcleod wilted under
the terrific pace while Tom Butler beat
Nat out by a half wheel to the wire, tlSs
Major winning by a wheel
Moran, of Chegsea, Mass, won the two
mile amateur from Cald ow, the Scotch-
