l Chicago, June 2-Thirty thousand
 people saw ::yirginia' Bradley's Aloha | gelding, Robert WaddeIl, at 12 to in
 the bettirg, win the fourteenth Ameri- can Derby at Washington Park today l by one length in 2:S3 4-5, record time
 for the race. Jockey BuIlman ito whom 1 fell the honor of taking two Derbies in l succession, was swept into a human
 maelstrom after he had dismounted
 and verified his weight. Upon shoulders | of strong men this popular rider was carried and a detail of Blue Coats had | to be called to clear the admiring l throngs from the course. As for the
 earnest, piebian racing tool. Robert | Waddell, he refused to permit attend ants to tie upon his neck the gigantic floral saddle that the club had provided | for the winner. Terminus, w. T. Sha- | fer's Blazes colt, was good second while the favorite, R. T., Wilson, Jr. s | grand looking Longstreet colt, The | Parader, was tired third. Frank Far reHs Bonnibert, that shared with The Parader at one time the honors of fa- vorite, failed to run his race and was | fourth. His Enlinence, purchased for | $20.00 by Clarence H. Mackay and groomed for a victory in the classic.
 
 Odoms terrific riding at the end, land ed in fifth place. Sanazarro. Six Shoot CT. Beau Gallant. Silverdale and Sa- die S, finished in the order named be- hind His Eminence.
 That it was 8 truly run race was the | opinion of every unprejudiced speeta- l tor. The Parader. fast as the wind. in l the Derby Wefk -out that induced his owner to ship him from New York to l the Washington Park track at the elev- | enth hour, was seventh, away at the drop of Starter Dwyer's red flag after | the field had made one false break. | Pfggott had orders to make a killing pace. He at once took tha-f aztf ! the front and there The Pafadef re- niained until the stretch was reached. Piggott is a strong rider and Is cred tied with considerable Judgment, but he did not figure upon all of the problems | that were known to Jockey Bullman l who raced his mount into second place and kept Robert WaddeH within strik- 1 ing distance until the head of the | stretch. Got 2 Bulhnan had been the most discon- solate man on the big track an ho1r before the Derby was run. Then it seemed to him that he would not have | a mount in the race, although last year on Sidney Lucas he had won the race, engaged to ride Bonnihert and dis- | placed when the Eastern owner ob- | tadned the services of Jockey Nash Turner from w. c Whitney. Bullmap
 was discouraged. Early in the day J. 1 W. Schorr owner of Lady Schorr. en- gagged him to pilot the Ally. but the veterinarian declared against the start | ing of this speedy daughter of Eshsh and once more Bullman was ''in the cold" Friends who knew his ridinR abilities worked hard to secure moant for him. Virginia" Bradley was un- decided between Van Dusen and See. for the mount on his entry. He had | heard from the pool room man that
 Bullman might not try to win. This de-
 cided the quaint Southerner. Calling | Pullman an hour before the bugle's summons, he offered $2.000 if he would
 win with Robert Waddell and Bullman was fixed at last. There were fifty seven book makers at the big track and they did a large volume of busi- ness on all of the races without inter ference by the authorities.
 Bullman's riding of Bradley's gelding caused considerable "pildng' on the 12 to 1 shot, but the bulk of the public speculation was on the more fashion able" animals. The Parader held firm at 3 to 1 .Bonnibert opened at 1-2 to 1 and receded a half point. Beau Gal lant was backed at to 1. His Emi- hence opened at to 1 and closed at to ?. Considerable play on San Max zarro the W. M. Hayes colt that would have been an excellent "mudder" had the track been heavy. sent his odds down from 20 to 15 to at post time.
 The withdrawal of Lady Schorr eft the Schorr entry, Silverdale. with a strong and loyal following which pounded the odds from to to 1. Ter minus was fancied by a few, as was evident by his stationary odds .the price opening and closing at 15 to l. Six Shooter had never won a race in his career and few played this Sir Dixon colt at the tempting odds of 15 and 20 to 1. Jockey McGinn. who had been se- cured to pilot Sadie H. the P. H. Sulli- van animal, backed in the Winter books for a small fortune, never seemed to take his mount seriously.
 Robert Waddell's time will give the fu- ture starters in the classic much to strive for to reduce it. The fractional time by eighths in the derby was: 13. 25 2-5. Ss Is. 49 2-5 1:02 3-5, 1:15 25 1:2S. 1:4l 1854, 2O6 25, 2:l9 and 2:33 4-5.
 Immediately the derby had been run extravagant stories were circulated in the crowd about the fortune Virginia Bradley had won on the victory of his gelding. Turfmen rushed to the paddock and overwhelmed the tall Virginian with congratulations. Enthusiasts, who es- capped the vigilance of officers at the gate, sought to destroy the owners old hat, tear off his coat and play similar pranks on the quaintest character on the West ern turf But Virginia" Bradley was not to be etampeded. (He declared that T just knowed he would win with Wad- deli'' and that he had played a few fifty dollar bills in the Winter book when the ReldinE was held at 100 to 1. The turf men Jumped to the conclusion that he had won at least $75000 and renewed their enthusiasm until the fortunate owner of the derby winner nearly tainted.
 T refused the offer of $l5,0O0 that was made for Waddell at Worth short time ago." remarked MT. Bradley after he had paid Bullman 5000 for his victory, just because I thought that the horse that had been good to me in many a hard race would run as true as steel in a mile.and- a-half event. There's nothing very fash ionable about Waddell. He had his last workout for the long route yesterday raagninR and the hoY couid hardly hold
