GRAND CIRCUIT CONTESTS
AT COLUMBUS
Fanny billiard Wins the 2:o7 Pace, but
Loses the Second Heat-Casconda
Not Real Contestant in the 2:13
Pace, in Which She Was Favorite-
Twinkle the Winner.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, July S1.-The
grand circuit races today were tame,
but there was a large attendance and
great deal of speculation. The feature
Of the afternoon was the 2:07 pace In
the over night pooling Riley B was a
hot favorite, selling at $50 to $25 for
the field. Just before the race he was
drawn. G. F. w. was also drawn, leav-
ing only four to score for the word
Fanny billiard was made the favorite
in the new books at $25 to $40. The
mare won the first heat with ease in
2:05K, lowering her record a full Sec
ond. In the second heat she broke
badly in the first turn, and barely beat
the flag, the heat going to Maj. Mus
covite in 2:08A. Before the third heat
there was very heavy play on the
field to beat Fannie billiard, who
brought $3.50 to $25.
Snow brought the billiard mare home
winner by neck over the Bishop,
who made a try for the heat after
Maj. Muscovite had died away.
The days upset came in the 2:13
pace, for which Casonda was a heavy
fayorite. She was never a contender
and Twinkle won in straight heats
Sylvia On and Prince Durect secured
second and third moneys.
The Roman, as expected, outclassed
his field of 2:17 class trotters, and none
of the three horses that were sent
after him in the three heats had so
much as a look in. The unfinished 2:19
trot was won by Ella Lee, a Columbus
mare, strongly backed by the local tall
ent. The 2:16 pace had only thAee star
tiers, all of poor class. Tom Keen look
ed good enough to win, but he alb
stained from taking a heat, but the
judges were satisfied with the race.

ton to Be Formed.
New York, Nov. 28.-Nearly all of
the retail cigar dealers, not only Of
this city but of the whole country, are
an attempt by wholesalers to drive
them out of business.
All of the retailers are as one with
the idea that the work of a certain
concern known as the United Cigar
Stores company is simply an endeavor
on the part of the American Tobacco
company, as the affiliated company of
the trust is known, to drive them out
of business.
They believe their own salvation
rests in ousting this company from
this city and from other cities through
out the Union where it has established
foothold.
A defensive organization will have
subsidiary Offices in Chicago, Buffalo,
Philadelphia Toledo, Milwaukee,
Rochester and other cities throughout
the country.
Representatives of 400 dealers in
this city met on Monday night in Man
nercher hall and there decided it was
better to be loser in a hard fought
struggle than to submit without a
fight. Forming themselves into an Or
ganization to be known as the Retail
Cigar and Tobacco Dealers associa-
tion Of Greater New York they placed
in the hands Of an executive commit
tee of twenty preparations for the
struggle which they fear will be of
long continuation before a settlement
