Radfords Refused to Play.

Much to the disappointment Of large
crowd of spectators, the game scheduled
for yesterday at Second Street and
Florida Avenue between the Radfords
and the Meridians was not played, be-
cause of the refusal of the former to
let the Meridians play any but their
old catcher. As the latter now plays
on another team, Manager Batch pre-
sented a substitute, who was not ac-
eeptable, and, after waiting over an
hour in an effort to start the game,

GOSSIP OF THE TURF.

John f. Madden has bought AcefuIl
from Orlando \. Jones, to whom the
colt was knocked down at the sale of the
Mackay horses Tuesday. He declined to
state the price, but said it was at an
advance on the original figure of 81 500.
Acefull. who is by Mirthful, was for
merly owned by Mr. Madden. who sold
him to Mr.. Mackay. He continued to
train the youngster. however, and was
anxious TO own him again.
Skillful, purchased at the sale by
Charles Ellison for $7,100, was also
handled by Mr. Madden up to the time
of changing owners. The colt worked
so good that Mr.. Madden offered to buy
him from Mr. Ellison for $500 an
advance of $1,000. The well-known own
er and plunger declined to sell him.
Skillful is an eligible for the United
States Hotel Stakes tomorrow, and is
also in the Futurity.
Ellison may add a number of other
horses to his string. He brought Cap
taip Arnold from Chicago, leaving the
remainder in charge of John Mayberry.
He intends to buy some yearlings at the
fall sales. His horses will be raced at
the Sheepshead Bay meeting.

last year. when l rode the great Mr..

my mount this year was to finish fifth.
The Derby winner, Sirdar. is certainly a
grand horse. and he won in impressive
fashion. Mitchell gave him a good ride.

his run at the right time.
1T looked very much as if Burlack. on
whom Rutter had the mount. would win
in the last sixteenth-so | am told-but
along in here Mitchell brought up Srdar
with a well-timed rush and inian excit-
ing finish got his mount first under the
wire by neck. Burlack beat Hamilton's
mount for second money. Piggott' S
-mount was fourth and mine fifth Now
what do you think of that-American
jockeys riding the first FIVE horses =?
Sirdar was well played and the crowd
went wild with delight when his number
was bulletined. Burt Knapp is riding in
rare form and some of his finishes have

American jockeys are carrying every

very apathetic in the turf line were it
not for the presence of jockeys so clever

with success there. The Russian season

Mexican Very Lame.

Notwithstanding the fact that Trainer
Tom Healy denies that Mexican, the colt
for which R. T. Wilson. jr.. paid $4,000
at the sale of Clarence II. Mackay' s
houses here on Tuesday, has gone lame
as reported yesterday. many traipers
here said today that the statement is
true. and what is more. Mexican is in
bad way. Some are inclined to believe
that he will not race for some time. if
ever again.
The auctioneer is severely criticised
for selling the horse. when il is said
he was aware of the fact that he was
unsound. According to the story cir
culated today. Mexican was lame before
he came here. and he also was sick

wrong with Mexican, but the exact trou-

The Delmar track continues to lead
all American race courses in point Of
winning favorites.
Last week twenty-one first choices
scored in thirty-seven races at that
course. This beats the record of the
previous week, when twenty favorites
scored in thirty seven races.
With 90 per cent of the favorites
winning two weeks in succession the
Delmar track is certainly entitled to
the blue ribbon for formful racing.
Only sixteen favorites won at the Sara
toga meeting last week and only four
teen first choices were returned win
ners during the past week at the Har
lem track in Chicago.

II is said that Mexican. the crack colt
sold the other day at the Mackay dis
persal sale. has gone lame. The report
was denied, but on the best authority Il
can be stated that Mexican was sore
after galloping at Horse Haven.
Whether the lameness will interfere
with his running in the rich United
States Hotel Stakes tomorrow, and in
the other big stakes in which he is en-
gagged is problematical, but there are
general expressions of regret that there
was a chance for the colts proving un-
sound. 4 well known trainer said that
Mexican's ankles had been under sus-
pieion and this fact may have prevented
several owners who are looking for
good horse and willing to pay any price
for one from bidding on the son OF
Mirthful.

Washington, Nov. 29.-Enough members
Of the house and senate have put in an
appearance during the last week or ten
days to make it certain that the coming
short session of congress will not be pro-
ductive OF much general legislation, but
at the same time it will be a session of
the liveliest description. marked by a
series of hardfought fights on half a.
dozen different fields. ,. 5.s-ss
Those who are seeking to support the
president in his efforts to secure legisla-
ton to curb the growing power Of the
trusts are not at all disposed to accept
the belief that they must wait until after
the close of the short session to secure
definite results. The chances are all
against any trust legislation this winter.
but the fight is to be waged with Just
as much vtgor as II the passage Of a sat
isfactory law were already in sight.
The tariff revision people are also de-
termfned no grass shall grow under their
feet. They propose to pave the way for
future action and will begin by prepare
lions to remove even the suspicion of q.
tariff from anthracite coal. 49, = -. :
The statehood question Is to be precipi-
tated In the senate during the second
week OF the present session and all signs
point to a fight Of unusual bitterness.
There is little prospect any Of the three
territories will be given the honors and
privileges of statehood, with the possible
exception Of Oklahoma.
Immigration, the department Of COM
merce, the ship subsidy scheme, and one
or two other topics have in them volcanic
elements which are almost certain to pro-
duce more or less of an eruption between
now and the 4th Of March.
