Chicago Boy Begins Training for Bat

San Francisco, Sept. 19.-Benny Yam

noon. He was seen at Sheehan Tavern

Billy Otis went on with the Chicago

Otis was at least twenty pounds the

O-59H. From there on he had the benefit
OF two runners and reached the three
quarters in 1:29Z. The record then
seemd to be trembling, but on getting
into the stretch a heavy bit of track was
experienced which tired the PAGER so
much that he reached the wire in two
minutes fiat. It was generally believed
that had Dan Patch been favored with
the same track conditions as those pre-
vail1ng on Monday, when Major Delmar
made his effort at the trotting record,
that the pacing record would have been
broken.

events were again in hard luck. Oracle

to win. rhythmic. the blind horse, in
the 2:07 trot, after winning the first hear,
tired badly in the home stretch of the
other two and Wentworth won easily.
In this event Prince of Orange was ia
vOrite, but never was prominent. In
the 200 pace AL Book was picked 10 win,
but the race developed into a contest
between Cubanole and Gold Brick The
former dropped the first heat, but took
the next two handily.
Beside the effort of Dan Patch to low
er his record, three other horses, all
trotters, tried for new marks. Miss
Pratt, black mare by Heir-at-Law,
was the only one to win against time.

TROLLEY LINES TIED UP.
Theater Goers Forced to Walk Home
by Burning of Power House.

New York, Sept. 19.-Trolley lines
around New Rochelle on the Long Is
land Sound shore were completely tied
up early today by the burning of the
Union Railway compsn y's power house.
The loss is estimated at 800, 600 Many
persons living in New Rochelle and
nearby places were on their way home
from attending a first-night theatrical
performance, when the power was cut
off and some of them had to walk sew
eral miles to get to their homes.
The fire drove the engineers from the
engines without giving them time TO
shut off steam. and the great engines
and dynamos ran steadily while the
building burned and fell around them.
The police did not dare allow people
to come near the fire, for fear of an ex-
plosion of the boilers, and they exper-
fenced great difficulty in keeping the
crowd back.
The power is cut off on the lines from
New Rochelle to Mount Vernon, Larch-
mont, Tuckahoo and Glen Island. It is
said no power will be available until
a new plant can be erected so- that the
commuters on the north shore appar-
emily are in a position for becoming
expert pedestrians.

CHICAGO NATIONAL TEAM.
Manager selee Will Make Very Few
Changes.

Chicago, Ill, Sept. 19.-Manager Selee
of the club team will make fewer
changes in his lineup for next year
than any other of the National league
magnates. The ,infield will be kept in
tact. This aggregation of clay stamp
ers works so well together that there
will be nothing in the league to beat 1t.

season will make Evers and Tinker
much faster pair around second
and short Chance will be a
much better first baseman next
season than he has been this,
as he will have all his experience
to start in with and a confidence that
he lacked in the early part of the year
The outfield may see some changes.
Mccarthy will undoubtedly be a TX
ture, as he has proved to be good
sticker during his stay so far, and has
lived up to his old-time reputation He
may, however, be moved over to right
field, as Selee thinks a left-hander can
handle that position to better advan-
tage. That will put Slagle back to left,
and Davy Jones will be sent to CEN
