CRESCEUS' GALLANT EFFORT,
Great TrOtter Goes n Mile in Fast

Great TrOtter Goes n Mile in Fast
Time, but Fails on Record.
Cresceus, the king of trotters, yesterday
failed to lower his record of 202A made
at Columbus August 2, in a trial on the
Belmont Driving Park course. near Phila-
delphia. The great son Of Robert McGregor
stepped the mile in 2.04h without a skip.
and thereby reduced the track record of
20S&, made by Alix on November Z, 1894
Everything was conducive to fine time
The track was lightning fast and there was
not enough breeze to interfere with the
progress OF the great trotter
There were nearly 5000 persons present
when Owner Ketcham brought Cresceus on
the track for his first jog. He warmed him
UP In the stretch for few minutes and
then logged him around the track in 2sIh.
After a rubbing down Cresceus was
brought for his preliminary trial. With
out a pacemaker ne did the mile In q 131z
1t was 4.20 when the horse made his al-
pearance for the final effort at record
breaking. After scoring once Ketcham
gave the starter the nod and che great
trotter was on, paced by a runner attached
to sulky.
When the first quarter was reached in
OA everybody thought the record would
surely be broken. The second quarter, on
the straight backstretch was made in
5oa4, put the third was fraction over a
second slower. Turning into the homo
stretch ketcham urged the trotting ma
chine to his utmost, but the best he could
90 was SlA seconds for the quarter. AS
the horse flashed under the wire a great
shout went up from the crowd, which i'm
mediately swarmed about the horse and
owner.

one heat Kramer fell. apparently through
the crowding tactics Of his dusky opponent
While in the other heat, mounted on a

In both heats Kramer had the pole and

On the steep eastern Bank Kramer ran off

that Iaylor was not responsible for Kra-

ToNIGHTvs MOTOR RACES.
Hair-Raisfng Contests Result When
the Experts Meet.

II predictions come true the time in the
ten-mile motor race tonight at the Coliseum
will be the fastest ever made on the local
track. This is by reason of the fact that
this event will be made a lap race, each
motor striving to get the lead, as the tape
is crossed at the end of each lap. The
motor having the largest number of laps
to it's credit at the end of the race will be
awarded the race, no matter which of the
machines crosses the tape line first at the
end Of the ten miles.
The races will start at S:15 o'clock, with
five-mile open. This event is the first
race of the distance given this season, and
the local amateurs will take advantage of
the medal which has been hung up for
the race tonight by the National Cycling
Association. The entries include the cream
OF the local riders and the race will doubt
less be close and exciting.
The three heats of the motor races for
five miles each will then be run off and
the spectators will then be given chance
to witness the most thrilling and sensa-
tional of races. These races have always
attracted large crowds and the terrific pace
which the machines set while rounding the
high entertainments simply causes the OBJ
servers to hold their breath until the
riders come down on the level. The ma
chimes are all of the four-horse-power type
and are considered the fastest in America.
In addition, the teams which will man the
fession and are experts.
The entries for the heats include Johnny
Nelson's yellow Boy with the same
team which was pacing that plucky little
rider when he met with his fatal fall in
Madison Square Garden a few weeks ago;
Will Stinson's Orient" Archie McEach-
ern's Blue Flyer" and the Baltimore
Royal Blue" The machine called the
yellow Boy" which is considered the fast
est on any track today, will give the ROYAL
Blue" tussle for first honors tonight, as
the latter machine has won all of the races
so far held the Coliseum track
McEachern's machine is also considered an
unusually fast machine and was the ma
chine which carried this rider into victory
in this city last week in his race with
Major Taylor. The motor of Will Stin-
son Is quite a favorite in it's line and has
gone a mile in 1.24.
The f1ve-mile lap race for the local
amateur cracks will show fast time, as the
result will be decided the same as the
motor final. the rider winning most laps in
the thirty to win race. The following are
the heats in the ffve-mile lap. The entries
in this event include: 2. "
First heat-C. Muller, A. Messino, c. L.
Bode, John Hill and Fred Miller Second
heat-E. L. Wilson, Otis Miller, Ray Cogs-
well, VIM. N. Ward and C. Mueller
The above entries are t he pick of the local
talent. The rider In this race who makes
the fastest time for the five miles will set
the record for NJ c. A. medal for five miles,
Clarence Miller has the record at pres
ent for the one and two miles, and sug-
gests that every will have to ride to
beat him out of this, and 1t will be a hot
race.
