DRAKE ISSUES A CHALLENGE
Offers to Match Savable Against Any
Horse in Euturity.

New York, Sept. 3.-As the result of a
controversy among some well-knowp
turfmen gathered at the Holland house
last evening, regarding the merits of
the Futurity winner, Savable's owner
announced his willingness to engage in
a special match race with any individ-
ual member of the Keene entry or any
other of the starters. Any owner who
feels that it was not truly ran, may
now secure a second and decisive en-
gagement with the winner very readily.
Captain Sam Brown, the Pittsburg oil
man and owner of Blue Ribbon, ven
tured the opinion that Irish Lad was
the best in the F'uturity field at the
weights. Charley Gates demurred.
An interminable dispute appeared i'm
minent when Owner brakes sweeping
challenge killed all argument. Mr..
Drake went still further by declaring
that if there was to be several East
ern colts which yet would make Sava-
BILE shape up like the proverbial 80
cents before the seasons close" they
would have plenty of opportunity to
show it. He intended starting Savable.
he said. whenever possible, after a due
rest from bis Futurity effort, feeling
confident of his colts ability to beat
anything in the East at even weights.

club and one of the veteran members
of the team, has played his last game
as a Tiger. He went away without
waiting to secure his release from De-

Work With the Stick.
Leads the White Stockings in
the Batting Department.
JONES AND STRANG UP.
Clark Griffith Makes a Most Re-
markable Record.
Has Not Made a Misplay In
Twenty-Five Games.

Chicago Sept 3-The News says ID.
Green easily leads the White Stockings
In the race with the stick up to the pres
emit time and is still the only member of
the team above the 400 mark. Fielder
Jones is pushing that mark pretty close,
however, and is now only one point be-
low it. Sammy Strang, too, has Increased
his average of late and is near the top.
Griffith is not up to his usual form this
season with the willow, for he usually is
above 300. Callahan has fallen behind al
SO. Eddie Mcfarland and Tom DAILY
have advanced rapidly of late and may
yet finish the season with averages some
where near the figures given them in the
National league. Garvin ended his record
at the end of the list.
Jones has been at bat the greatest num-
Der of times, 431. and also in the base
hits, 129 while Strang leads in number of
runs scored, eighty-two. The White
Stockings are strong on stolen bases and
Mertes leads the league with total or
thirty-eight. Isbell has thirty-two, Green
twenty nine, jones and Davis twenty
eight each and Strang twenty-SeVen.
Green has sacrificed oftener than any
other champion, though Isbefl is only one
behind him.
Griffith is the only White Stocking who
has not made error up to the present
time this season. In the twenty-five
games he has played he has not made
single misplay-a truly remarkable record.
Fielder Jones who has been IN every game
played by the champions this season, lU9,
Is close to him. though Isbell with total
of LIS chances in 108 games and only
thirteen errors, is second in the fielding
list. Callahan has played fifteen games in
the out field, most of them in the right
garden, and is therefore given an average
as an outfielder as well as a pitcher.
Strang is at the foot of the column in
fielding chances accepted among the re-
regular players, while Wiley Piatt is the
last in the list of the team. Among the
men regularly in the game Jones has
made the fewest misplays. while Strans
has the greatest number chalked up
against him-a total number of As.
Sullivan is still ahead of Eddie McFar-
land in the record as backstop, though
Comiskey's new catcher is slowly creeping
UP on the former Boston player, as the
latter is compelled to absent himself from
the game owing to an injury to his thumb.
Besides leading the White Stockings in
batting, Danny Green is also at the head
of the list as an extra basehitter and has
made a total of 1853 bases. His lead is
very slight, however, for Fielder Jones is
close on his heels with 152 bases. Garvin
and Patterson are the only members OF
the team that have not made an extra
base hit.

trotted two slow heats in the Charter
Oak $4,000 event and then went in and
won in three straight heats. The race
was marred by a bad accident in the

the infield to the scene of the accident.
The horses and drivers were found to
be uninjured.

Ozanam broke badly. In the second
heat. Metallas led to the back stretch.
but Idolita took the heat. The third
heat was very easy for Amelia, with
Ozanam coming fast and getting second
place. The fourth heat looked good for
Hawthorne, but he broke at the wire,
and, though Amelia had broken twice,
she came in a winner. The fifth heat
was an easy win for the favorite.
The pool sellers evidently feared Df-
rect Halls bursts of speed, and no pools
were sold on the favorite for the 2:30

though the time he made was fast, he
could have done better. Greenline sold
