s cid as they did. the climate here
the finest in the world for the develop-

i Horses can be exercised down here in
the open, even in the coolest weather,
and tn horses do not suffer from hav-
ing to be kept cooped up in stalls dur
Inc severe weather. Another advan-
tage is that green food can be furnish

TO REDUCE FIELDS.

The stewards of the Brighton
Beach Jockey Club have made All
important ruling that win be in
force during the Brighton meeting.
Ihey announced that hereafter not
more than sixteen horses shall start
N any race at a distance Ct six
lurlongs or less. This is to prevent
as far as possible the crowding in
= big field, such as resulted on
Miller.
Of course, the Brighton people are
wen within the rules of racing when
uley start as many as twenty
horses out of the six-furlong chute,
tor the track there is 100 feet wide,
out 1t will be infinitely better to
Ieuuce the size of the fields and
give the boys and horses a better
chance for real racing.

JOE CRIMES WONDERFUL

THE PUGILISTIC WORLD
MACKAY CoL0RS WON'T

Trainer Charles f. Hill Sets at Rest
RumOIs About Big Stable.


RumOIs About Big Stable.
Despite stories of recent publication,
Clarence H. Mackay does not contem-
plate returning to the turf next season
with an extensive racing stable, nor
has he made an offer for the services
Of Jockey O'Neill.
The stories are denied absolutely by
those entitled to know something of
Mr. Mackay's affairs.
you can say positively that Mr..
Mackay has not the slightest idea of
returInng to the turf next year." said
Charles F. Hill, who has trained all Of
the horses that have raced in the
Mackay colors and who has managed
Silver Brook Farm for Mr.. Mackay
since the retirement of the racing sta
BILE.
Mr.. Mackay is out of racing for the
time being, and his colors will not be
seen next season. He would not, there
fore, have any use for a high-salaried
jockey, and there would be no reason
for him to make overtures to O'Neill
1T is true that Mr.. Mackay made a
rev entries to the Saratoga stakes,
but that must not be taken as an in
dlcatlon that the horses named will
carry his colors in these events. We
have eight yearlings at the farm. Four
of them are absolutely of no promise,
but the other four are decidedly prom
Using.
These are the ones entered at Sara
toga- And they were entered because
1t would add to their value If it was
desired to lease them for racing pur-
poses or sell them.
THAT would be Mr.. Mackay's stable
to return to the turf with--four untried
2-year-olds. When Mr.. Mackay does re-
turn to racing, you can rest assured it
will be with a more pretentious sta
Bile than is represented by this quar-
tette of youngsters"

FELTZ SHOULD HAVE
HAD DECISION.

Reports from the bout between
Tommy Feltz and Harry Forbes,
which took place at Detroit last
Wednesday night, have it that
Forbes was clearly outpointed by
Tommy.
The weight, 116 pounds at 8
o'clock, seemed to bother Forbes,
who was weak throughout the lat
ter part of the go" 1t suited
Feltz nicely. The latter was strong
from start to finish.
He beat Forbes with the jab, and
he used a right-hand punch to good
effect. The fight was under the
clean-break provisions. and Feltz
surprised everybody by his ability
to work under this agreement. At
no time did he transgress the rules.
Forbes did his usual clean work.

Yale scored two touchdowns in the
first half by bucking the line and by
end running. The play was of the sim
plest throughout, and the superiority
of the Yale halfba cks, rather than the
attacking power of the forwards, was
responsible for the big score.

When the Saginaw sighted after the first
impact her stern was under water and her bow
was high in the air Panic stricken people
rushed over her decks and scrambled toward the
bow. a boat from the Hamilton saved Second
Officer w. L. Morris and the colored stewardess
of the Saginaw, who were in the lifeboat that
capsized. The woman died in the Hamilton's
boat. She had been held up by First Mate
Goslee of the Saginaw, who sank himself as the
Hamilton's boat reached them.
The other two boats and the life raft lowered
from the Saginaw and the Uamilton's two boats
picked up the people who clung to floating
wreckage but so quickly did the Saginaw sink
that when the Ifeboats of the Hamilton reached
her nothing but her topmasts were visible, with
the men clinging to them. The lfeboats took
them off.

wreck for more than an hour, but no sign OF
life could be seen among the mass of floating
freight Two bodies, one OF man ana the
other Of a woman, clad in nightgowns, We're

The first news of the wreck was learned at

ance had crossed the others wake Then, keep
ing her hard full, he let go for the Columbia,
but the old boat continued to draw away so
fast that Barr gave up the chase five minutes
later, and headed the Reliance for her moor
ings at ew-Rochelle. The Constitution, which
had also been out sail drilling but without
her manager August Belmont, on board, was
passed close aboard by the Reliance on her
way home.
AS matter of fact. it is hardly fair to con-
denim the Reliance on the strength of her per
formance yesterday, for, while the conditions Of
wind and water equal. there has never
been 90-footer that did her best work after
only half dozen spins and to be beaten by
such a well tried yacht the Columbia at their
first meeting is not considered by any means
disgrace. 1t will take actual race over a long
course in a good breeze to determine with any
degree of accuracy the merit of the new boat.
Just as two bells Il o'clock struck the stops
were cast off the mainsail of the Reliance. In
just fourteen minutes the mainsail and big
club topsail were set. Then there a long

stepped over the starboard gangway when the
jib was broken out, the mooring was slipped and
the big yacht started on the starboard tack,
heading across the Sound
The Columbia. meanwhile had set her club
topsail a mainsaiL Having left her
berth at Glen Cove, she was now standing out
into the Sound off MatinicOck Point in very
light breeze, which barely gave her steerage

Seventeen minutes after starting Captain
Barr suddenly kept the Reliance broad off. and
gave the order to set the spinnaker TO star
board At 334 the sail was taken in. The
main boom was gybed to starboard, and the
spinnaker set to port. Jfb topsails were shifted
several times, and there was a good deal OF box-
hauling done the tickle breezes and try
to reach the Columbia. The Constitution had
meanwhile left her moorings. Setting her spin
maker she tried to work out of Hampstead Bay
into the Sound. Finally the breeze came that
brought the Columbia and Reliance together,
