SIX DAY RAGE.
kt1<1 v ]t N 1tzk Another Team Has Fallen By the Way

ance or the lively scenes, frequent sprints and the shifts in position that began on Thursday after the race had two teams in first place.
 The public, seeming to expect this, came out in force. Doubled prices at the doors did not keep them away and at 10 o'clock all the seats and most of the standing room were taken. There were then eight teams left in the race, the same two teams tied for first place as on Thursday. four pairs in second place, one team in third place, one in fourth and one ill fifth. The average pace was faster than during the few days preceding.
 The eighth team to quit was that of Butler and Turville They retired shortly after 4 o'clock in the afternoon, because Butler had his shoulder blade broken in fall that involved him and Bedell and Newkirk.
 George Leander, the freshest looking man in the race, became the favorite all yesterday At night he was seen dancing with a woman in the base ment.
 Although there was spurt every five minutes during the early evening there were no gains or losses.
 The first change in position after o'clock yesterday afternoon came at near , o'clock, when Root and Calvin, the New England pair, got a well earned lap and joined the other four teams then in the second division. Gal win started the sprint anG got q good start before the bunch behind realized what he was doing. After he had gained half lap of lead his partner, Root, came out and finished the job in three laps. A defective spot on the track caused Moran fall right after Roots gain, but the big fellow was not hurt
 Accidents came in rapid succession during the afternoon. The first came shortly after 1 o'clock when Franz krebs. to the surprise of everyone, had the temerity to attempt to steal lap. and he actually gained half the dis tance before being caught. While the others were chasing Krebs Keegan came out to relieve Peterson. He walked across the track carelessly just as the riders swung into the stretch on the Twenty street side. The leaders in the string swung clear of him, but Stinson ran full tilt into the Irishman. Both went down. Keegan. was unhurt, but Stinson's hands and
  bad bump. under the left eye. Last night he was riding with both hands bandaged. This accident to Stinson and the appearance of doctor to at tend him brought out the fact that the Boston boy has been riding since Tues day with q fractured collar bone. Stin- son has been in great pain all the time and he shows it.
 At .97 O'cIoaI- Root Ftsay1 Krebs had fall without serious re- suit. At POP o'clock Calvin and Fur, vile went down together.
 The big spill of the afternoon, in which Butler was put hors de combat, occurred at 3:10 o'clock, and again. Otto Maya, who has caused more ac- cidents than anyone else, was to blame. heegan was trying to steal lap and had half the distance gained. Maya was in front and concluded to drop backt He did so, and for the second time fouled John Bedell. Maya did not fall but Bedell did and Butler and NeWkirk went over him. Butler was helped to his training quarters, where he remained until $50. when the team was declared out. &
 It IS the custom. of the management to have the tail-enders leave the track about fifteen minutes before the time for the race to end. That time to- night will be 12 minutes and 47 sec Onds after 10 o'clock As between the Ieander-Krebs team and the NeWSirk- Jacobson team the ride for first place should result in an easy victory for the former team. but there should be n noble struggle for third place between the teams of the second division. The team members who last night were shceduled to make the finishing dash were Leander. Jacobson, Mcfarland, Moran. John Bedell and Root. At 1:45 o'clock Keegan started to sprint and gained third of lap. The bunch gained this and when Peterson | came out he lost q lap for the team. Calvin and Root also lost q lap. | placing them in sixth place. Barclay and Krebs fell one lap further behind. Miss Alice Roosevelt, daughter of I the president. was among the specta- tors last night. She sat in box on l the TWenty-seventh street side and watched the race, the exhibition and the aerial dazzle.
