They Smash Worlds Records at the Close of the
Memphis Meeting

Memphis, Tenn, Oct. 2S.-The eight
day meeting of the Memphis Trotting
Association was brought to a fitting
close this afternoon with the breaking
of two additional worlds records.
Lou Dillon, Mr.. Billings champion
trotter, driven by her owner. went
mile to wagon in two minutes fiat.
cutting a second and three-quarters
from the previous record made by her.
self, and The Monk and Equity, driven
by Mr.. Billings, their owner, lowered
the worlds trotting record of 2:0SH for
a mile to pole to 2:0S.
The performance OF Lou Dillon in
the mile trial to wagon was even more
spectacular than the trial against time
last SATURDAY. when she negotiated a
mile in 1:5S1a. The trial to-day was
made with the customary two runners
to set the pace, and the forward sulky
carried a wire dust screen. AS the
horses drew near the last eighth pole
the speed of the little mare was so ter
rife that Mr.. Billings drew her from
behind the forward sulky driven by
Doc Tanner, and the finish was made
in a drive with the two runners
alongside of the trotter and all three
flashing under the wire the barest of
noses apart.
The Savannah morning news., 1903-10-29

The start was made on the first trial,
and the quarter was reached in 29k
seconds, the half in :59A, three-quar-
ters in 1:29h, and the mile in exactly
two minutes.
The spectators gave the speedy lit
tie mare a great demonstration.
The Monk and Equity, driven by
Mr.. Billings, went a mile in easy fash
ion to pole in 2:0S with a single run
ner, driven by Doc Tanner, to set the
pace. At the quarter the time was
caught in :32A; the half was made in
1904, the three-quarters in 1:36 and the
mile in 20S. Summaries:
2:11 Trot--One mile dash, purse, $500.
Queen Wilkes won; Eye Line, second;

TWO GREAT GAMES
COLUMBIA AND CORNELL. MATCHED
AGAINST BIG -FOUR TEAMS.

Eleven-Blue Line Is Not What 1t
Was Last Year and the Absence
of BIOomer Is n Serious Draw
bnck-De witt Cannot He Depend
ed on Entirely to Win from Cor
nell for the Tigers.
Two big games on the gridiron are
scheduled for the coming week that
can be classed as championship con-
tests. Yale will battle with the heavy
team of Columbia at the polo grounds,
New York, and Princeton will meet
Cornell at Princeton.
These games promise to be the most
bitterly fought that have taken place
thus far this season. Columbia and
Cornell are both ambitious to enter
the first rank so far as football is con-
cerned, and the only way they can
attain this object is to defeat one of
the leading colleges in the sport.
Three times has Columbia met the
sons of Old Eli 'on the gridiron, and
on each occasion the blue and white
has succeeded in scoring. One of the
games resulted in a victory for Column
bia. All of these contests took place
early in the season, the adherents OF
Yale have always been able to say
that Columbia faced a team that was
in an early state of development, and
that had the match been held later
in the season when the blues were in
championship form Columbia would
have been swamped. No such excuse
can be made for Yale on this occa-
sion. The New Haven aggregation has
been thoroughly tried out in hard con-
tests against teams of good calibre,
and Yale, with vivid recollections of
the past, has carefully prepared for
the struggle with the New York col
lege.
Yale has not tried to conceal the fact
that she fears the Blue and White
eleven this year. Columbia has shown
up so strongly all during the season,
that the Ellis will enter the contest
none too sanguine of victory. The
way Columbia toyed with the lively
Amherst aggregation. a team that
proved too clever for Harvard to de-
feat, gave the first real intimation of
the true strength of the New York
team.
Yale's line is not what it was last
year, particularly since the retirement
of the great guard, Boomer, on ac-
count of a wrenched arm. With
Bloomer out of the Blue wall. it is
doubtful whether the New Haven team
can boast of a superior line.
Columbia claims to have better
| backs than the team from the Connec-
ticut college. Whether this is so or not
time alone can decide. Jones of Column

MILLER AND THOMPSON ON KEEN
EDGE FOR TO-NIGHT'S BATTLE
FUTURE OF BELLE MEADE.
Mrs. jackson VIII Very Likely
Keep the Estate Intact,

heSp the Estate Intact.
There is much speculation relative to
the future OF Belle Meade. the famous
thoroughbred nursery belonging to
the estate of Gen. w. H. jackson. The
sporting press of the country has been
alive with announcements of the clos
ing-out sale Of the horses of this es-
adjustment. The sale was held. and
The Commoner and nearly every
brood mare of note that was consigned
was bought in and returned to Nash
vile, where they are now uuartered.
1t is a well-known fact that Mrs. w
II. Jackson, widow of young jackson,
has had her heart set upon keeping
the place intact. 1t is believed that
her father, James Richardson, who is
very wealthy man, Will pay off all
obligations of the estate and buy out
other interests, and Belle Meade will
be presided over by Mrs. w. H. Jack
son. She will call to her aid Mr.. r.
{. Brien, who was the private secre-
tary and general manager for the
Jacksons father and son. Mr.. Brien
is well qualified to handle the business
OF this immense establishment. ReUe
Meade contains some $500 acres. The
Commoner will be at the head of the
harem. The Commoner and soma
forty choicely bred mares, the pick of
the establishment, have been retained.

COMPLICATION CAUSED
BY HORSES DUMPING.
The Judge Had TangIe to Work
Out at Aaueduct.

Out at Aaueduct.
New York, Oct. 2S.-The most COM
plicated affair in the history of an
Eastern race track occurred after the
running of the last race at Aqueduct
to-day. Stonewall, Oarsman and
Payne finished heads apart, but Red
fern. riding Oarsman, claimed a foul
asserting that he had been bumped.
He was followed by Higginson Payne,
who also made a claim of interference.
After elaboration, the judges and
stewards disqualified Stonewan and
placed Oarsman first, Payne second
and Bob Hillard, who ran last, the en-
tire distance and was beaten twelve
lengths, third. Akela, who it is claim
ed caused the trouble, finished fourth,
but was disqualified, and Squid, the
fifth horse, was completely overlooked
in the placing.
Two track records were broken to-
day. Emergency, who won the Belle
Rose stakes, clipped a fifth of a second
off the old mark for five furlongs, while
Lord Badge reduced the mile record TO
1:40 2-5
