THE rRoTT1Na ASSOCIATION.
Board of Review Meets to Straighten
Out Seasons Tangles.

The board Of review of the National Trot-
ting Association began the first session Of
it's December meeting yesterday In New
York. All the members of the board were
present: President, F. P. Johnson Of Lex
ington. Ky; vice president George w.
Archer, Rochester, N. Y; Charles Dana
Palmer of Lowell. Mass; J. c. Weltz Can
ton, Ohio: NJ C. Blake. Cedar Rapids, Iowa !;
J. H. Shuts. New York city, and w. H.
Gocher, Hartford, Conn. secretary. The
board had the usual number of cases and
complaints to consider.
One of the most interesting cases which
came before the board was the complaint
of Frank McCauliffe of Pittsburg against
Dana L. Fuller of Pittsburg and Walter
Cox of Manchester. N. III. Fuller was
charged with substituting the mare Josie
B., with a record of 2.14h. for the Russell
mare in a race against time at Nashua.
~ H. last September. Cox was charged
with driving the alleged ringer.
After McCauliffe failed to drive the Rus
sell mare better than 2.7 he sent her back
TO her owner and Fuller then sent the mare,
which he represented to be the Russell
mare. to Cox's stable and wagered $500 with
McCauliffe that the mare could beat $50.
Cox drove the supposed Russell mare in
2.2S. McCauliffe told the board that he be-
lieved that Cox had been deceived as well
as himself.
Cox admitted that he drove the mare later
at Rochester, but when he turned her in the
race he saw at once that she was not q
green horse, but well-seasoned campaign
err. and that he sent her back to Fuller.
The case of the National Trotting Asso-
citation against II. C. Thorpe of Charlotte
VT. and v. A. Billiard of Burlington was
continued from 1901. after the board had
expelled the bay geldfng Harry s., which
was run in each of their names. e. F.
Browneil appeared for Mr.. Billiard and Mr.
Thorpe and presented afidayits to the eff
feet that Mr.. Bullard merely lent money for
the purchase OF the horse to Homer E
Brewster. who was also expelled In 1901.
and who was the real owner. and that Mr.
Thorpe, who raised the horse sold It In
good faith to Brewster and did not know
the horse was afterward being run in his
name.

American trainers attracted little atten-

the success they. once did. Doubtless the
British riders have picked up many points

HART WHIPPED CARTER.
Fierce Boxing Match in Cultured Bos


ton.
Over 5000 men got their moneys worth at
the Criterion A. c., Boston, last night. when
Kid Carter of Brooklyn and Marvin Hart Of
Louisville came together for fifteen rounds
at catchweights. Hart was the winner, the
referee interfering in the last round. when
the battle had only two minutes more to go.
There was nothing of moment In the
opening round In the second Carter was
prominent. He rushed Hart all over the
ring, raining shower OF blows. But Hart
took the punishment heroicaliy, and was
not badly worsted at the bell. The third
was lively Hart began by sending the
right to the head, and mixup followed.
AS soon as they squared off again Hart put
a hard right on Carriers jaw, dropping him.
Carter arose Immediately and they mixed
it again. Hart had Carter groggy Wheh
the gong tolled.
Carter was himself again in the fourth.
and did most Of the leading in the hfth.
The sixth round was very lively. while In
the seventh Carter had the upper hand.
Hart directed his attention to Carriers
face in the eighth round. These blows I'M
nerved the Brooklynite. who fought Wildly.
Hart kept pegging away alternating Win
lefts and rights on the mouth and jaw The
milling was fierce, and when Carter retired
to his corner his eyes were almost closed.
The ninth was full of ginger. 1t was nip
and tuck the mixes being severe. In one
Of the mixes Carter went down for the
count from a heavy right on the chin. He
arose at the count Of nine and fought back
in feeble fashion. 1t looked all day for Car
ter but with a forlorn hope he drove over
the right, catching Hart flush on the jaw.
The Louisville boxer staggered. but the
gong saved him. Both were on the verge
of collapse. and the crowd cheered wildly.
Carter was a little fresher In the tenth
round but Hart soon had him in distress by
hammering his body and punching him on
his damaged optics. Carter merely defend
ed himself in the eleventh. but brought the
blood from Harris mouth with a wild swing
toward the end. Carter tried to stem the
tide in the twelfth. but without avail A
right to the kidneys and heavy left to the
jaw staggered him. He was aoundering all
over the ring when time was called
Carter showed excellent form In the thir-
teenth With right on the mouth he stag
gered Hart. but the latter recuperated
quickly and, coming forward. shot the right
to Carter's jaw. putting him down for the
count. He was capsized once more, but
Hart did not have enough power to finish
him. The men fought viciously in the four
teenth and both were weak at the finish.
The final round was fast Hart smashed
Carter relentlessly. but the latter's grit
helped him for a while. However, the 60
ing was so fast that he became weak and
was barely able to hold up his hands They
were both covered with blood. Hart tried
to score a knockout, but the referee, fear
ing bad results, stepped in and called
halt He then declared Hart the winner.
although Hart was in bad way himself.

AUTO CUP. RACE.
Hardness to Again Compete for Ben
nett Cup.

Mr. II. S. Hardness will enter again for
the American team, which Is to compete
for the James Gordon Bennett cup over
German course In July. He was an entrant
last year, but failed to prepare his car in
time. -s..
When seen yesterday in New York. he
said: Il shall undoubtedly make a trial for
the team. 1t is not true that am designing
cars at Greenwich, Conn, but not 100 miles
from there some work is being done. am
anxious to build car stronger by twenty
horse power than my present car. The
present car is fast enough for level roads,
inasmuch as on first speed got away at
forty miles to the hour, and can do eighty,
but with the added twenty hourse power 1t
will be possible to negotiate the hills much
better.
My present car was not light enough for
the last race anyway, and it was too heavy
for the Paris Madrid race for which L was
entered. They held me up in the French
customs for ten days and then we worked
night and day to tighten the car, cutting off
every other tooth of the sprocket and even
boring holes in the teeth that remained.
That took Off thirty-three pounds and
brought the to weight. Then L found
that I needed more weight to the fly wheel.
and, upon adding that, could not tighten the
car in other ways. so was not allowed to
start as was slightly over weight.
Il made arrangements to drive a Ga
bron-Brille car of 100 horse power in the
race, out my IdtHeT Wouiu not arrow me 10

car would do for the cup race. and may be
