GREAT BETS ON
AMERICAN DERBY

over 81, 200, 600 is reported TO have
changed hands as result of the run
ming OF the big Western turf classic.
the American Derby. at washington
park, Chicago, on June II. which was
won by John A brakes Wyeth with
Lyme up. Thousands of dollars poured
into the ring from all directions and
nearly seventy-five bookmakers, each
with half a dozen assistants, had all
they could DO to handle the money.
AS usual in sucn cases, the "bookies''
took most of the money home in their
satchels. although some of the betters
backed Wyeth and made the ring
grcan when Lucien Appleby was
caught in the stretch and beaten I'M
der the wire by the Drake horse. With
OF without betting at the track
Wyeth's victory meant about 100000
TO his owner as he had several fat
tickets on him in the winter books
which called for good round sums at
long odds. Any man who had a ticket
on the Derby winner had no trouble
getting il cashed for the bookies took
in 5000 for every 1000 they had to
pay out
Despite one or two plunges on the
winner. the man VINO really won the
most money on the Derby is Jim"
O'Leary, king OF the Western book
makers. O'Leary's winter book is
something like a savings bank in
which everyone deposits money in the
name OF O'Leary. Last year O'Leary
cleared $3.50 900 on his winter book. and
this year he is said to have Melted
nearly $4,000 by his operations

Horse affairs have taken a back seat
since the return of the fanciers from
Hilo, and there does not promise 70 be
anything OF moment doing until the
Maui meeting in August. The failure
of the first plans for a good meeting
during the Merchants Fair does not
mean that there will be no racing
then. but only that there will not be
the great number of horses that it was
intended to attract to the city. The
plans for gathering of the reinsmen
at that time now seem to embrace a
series of heats between driving horses,
perhaps an exhibition or two, and if
the horses are in condition a race
which will bring together Sambo and
some one of the really fast PAGERS in
the city.
Hilo gave to admirers of horse racing
some of the very best sport of recent
years, and too much credit may not
be given to George S. Mckenzie for his
enterprise SHOWN in getting such ami
mails for his half mile track at Hoolu-
Iu There was racing, the quality of

and Del Vista was a hot one, showing
perhaps the quality of the mare, but
leaving the horse in bad shape owing
to the giving out of his legs, the mud
being so sticky as to make the racing
a strain. Had the two met under the
conditions of the handicap with allow
ances, the mare carrying eleven pounds
less than the horse, there could have
been no other result. Weller was TWEEN

TO
MEET IN PRACTICE

Cricketers will get into the game to-
day and make one of the best of the
seasons practice plays. The outlook is
for the highest kind of cricket and
there promises to be a large turnout
to see the match, owing to the fact
that the men who engage in the game
will be available for the next game of
great consequence, which is the return
match between Scotland and the
World, to be played one week from to-
day on the Makiki grounds.
The Scottish game promises to be one
of the most holly contested of the sea-
son, owing to the fact that there will
be blood in the air, the World team
being composed of the hardest crick
eters on the wicket today. Their Sc
lection will be a matter of the hard
work of a committee during the COM
ing week, and the game today will fur
nish lines upon the form which Is ex-
pected TO be shown by members of the
team The teams today are known as
McGilFs and Picker's, being chosen by
those captains 1t is safe to say that
there are few of the faithful who Will
not be in the game or upon the green
about the field. The usual accompani-
ments will be observed. The teams
will play thus:
McGiIl (captainl, Hatfield, Black
man ID. Glass, Piianaia, H. Glass, Jor-
dan, Brett, Irish, Faraday, Guild.
Picker (captain}, Rev. V. H. Kitcat,
Anderson, Beardmore, Morse, Won der
Hyde. Dunn, Ahio, Gill. Miles, Prince
Cupid.
The elevens are fairly well divided.
owing to the fact that the batting
strength Of the two is about the same.
and the game played here is not pri-
rnarily q team game, but one depend
ing more upon the star individual play.

death OF Peachmark, the pride of w.

also distinguishing themselves on the
field. OF these Lady was first in. the
derby in 1901 and second in the all-age

HILO HAD A FINE a
RACE MEETING ON
ITS BIG TURF DAY

friends investing heavily upon the
chance OF success
Sambo is a hard horse TO drive and
Gibson had all that he could do to
prevent the shavetail from winning the
first heat on the first day. But the
little Samson was working right ard
choked off the black and thus permit
ted the sorrel to get in front and stay
all of which helped the odds. The re-
suit of the race was a foregone con-
cldsion, for the black was top fast
for Wayboy The losing of the black
next day ~ as inexplicable and it does
not seem that il could be explained
upon the theory that somebody had
won the race before the start, as
every one declared that there was no
betting. This was almost true.
Carter Harrison won a popular vie
tory, and Fierro was a surprise to
everyone.
There is no use of particulars as the
events have passed into the island turf
history. The speculation now is as to
what will be done by Mckenzie, who
believes in getting a good one, selling
and then getting a beater. If he wants
something TO beat Nullah it appears
that he will have to get a real won
der. There is not horse on four legs
that can beat Weller, in condition, in
Hawaii, but he can be secured, GER
tainIy. and il is the belief that some
of the true sports Will try it.
The features of the Hilo race day,
outside the fast ones. We're the ladies'
race and the match between Guard
with Acrobat and Mckenzie with
Wayboy. 1t was sport for the people
and the wind, in both events, for be-
tween one of the riders in the first
race and the hirsute adornment of the
winner in the second, there was a con-
slant wonder as to the effect of the
breeze. Mrs. Ida Akau rode like one
who knew the game, for she rated her
pony and made the run in the stretch
like veteran of the ring.
There are noW in Hilo better horses
on the average than there are in Ho-
nolulu. There are more good ones, as
SHOWN by the fact that the meeting
there was a first class event, with only
a very few animals from here, while
the success here was due TO Walker
and Mckenzie and O'Rourke. And to
pay for the disparity, it might be said
without pride or arrogance of right to
belief. that the most and prettiest of
the box holders were Honolulu people.

HOUSE COMMITTEE PREPARING
PHILIPPINE CIVIL GOVERN
MENT BILL

Washington March 2J-The Republican mem
bers of the House Committee Of Insuar Affairs
are rapidly perfecting the bill providing a civil
form of government for the Philippines. In the
main the measure so far perfected follows
that introduced by Chairman Cooper and fav-
ored by Judge Taft but a subcommittee. con
sisting of Messrs. Cooper Moody. Crumpacker
and Hamilton, has made number of changes
in matters Of detail.
In it's present form the bill provides for the
institution of civil government in the Philippines
when the Governor shall certify to the President
that state of permanent peace has been Sc
cured. Thereafter a census is to be held. and
the islands to be divided into districts. A
legislative assembly is created, consisting OF two
houses. The upper house is to some extent a
continuance of the Philippine Commission The
lower house, or Philippine Assembly, is 10 De
elected by the people.
The coinage feature of the bill has not been
finally decided upon. but the discussion in the
last two days has indicated strong preference
for applying the gold standard 10 the Phllpplne
coinage allowing the native coins to be made out
of silver but in all cases having their Naiue
measured by the golG standard. Il is intended
also to have the coins made out or SILVER
bullion now in the United States Treasury. TINS
being purchased by the insular authorities. This
gold standard plan is along the lines recon-
mended by the War Department. as the silver
coinage plan proposed before the Senate Philip
pines Committee found supporters IN the
House Committee.

Mcclellan. principal OF the Rowayton Public
school was arrested this morning by Deputy
Sheriff John w Sculley in a suit for $1,000 for
libel brought by Miss Elizabeth A Erwin. a
teacher in the school. The bonds were fixed at
$1,000. and the principal the sheriff and an
attorney, George H. Vosburgh. representing the
defendant. went TO New Haven this afternoon
where Mr.. Mcclellan has a bondsman.
The arrest of Mr. Mcclellan created a sensa-
ton Although Miss Erwin has threatened civil
action from the first. when il was said that Mr.
Mcclellan had accused her Of writing the famous
anonymous letters, 1t was hardly expected that
action would be brought.
There has been a general change OF sentiment
in Rowayton. Even Earl Thomas. with whom
the McClellans lived. who received one of the
letters and who was their stanch adherent at
first. has turned over. The result OF all this
was that Levi Warner. who represents Miss Err
win. called upon Mr.. Vosburgh yesterday and
demanded the letters on behalf Of his clients
Mr. NosburGh did not have them; ne had turned
them over TO Mcclellan The suit is brought on
the grounds that Mr.. Mcclellan at first accused
Miss Erwin, and that this accusation damaged
her reputation and caused her Inconvenience TO
the extent Of $4,000. The warrant was served
upon Mr. Mcclellan while he was in school He
accompanied the Sheriff to South Norwalk.
