RACES AT JENNINGS.

Washington, April 4.-Despite the
unseasonably cold weather, a tremen-
dous crowd attended the races at Ben
nings to-day. An excellent card de-
veloped some fine sport, notwithstand-
ing a very heavy track, due to last
nights rain.
The talent was happy, as three favor
ties and two heavily backed second
choices won. Interest as usual cen
tered in the steeplechase, at two miles
and a half. The favorite, Charles
O'Malley, fell and was unplaced.

WITH THE BALL MEN.

Robinson Placed With Louisville
and BaIIantyne Goes to Baltimore.
Jack" Dunn of the New York base
ball club left yesterday afternoon by
rail to join his team in New York in
the game there Tuesday. Dunn has put
himself in splendid condition since his
arrival here, and especially since the
team left. He said before his depar-
ture that he felt in fit condition to go
through the season at a lively clip.
Jack" w. Robinson, who played the
latter part of last season with the
Giants, and trained with them this
season, and with Dunn, Davis and
Ballantyne since the teams departure,
has been placed with the Louisville
team of the Western League, and will
leave tomorrow for that city. Robin
son is claimed by Bridgeport, and
Manager O'Rourke of that team has
kicked good and hard about letting
him loose to New York, principally, it
is claimed, through prejudice. Robin
son states that O'Rourke has no claim
upon him, for when he signed with
Bridgeport last season he erased the
release clause of the contract and,
therefore, did not bind himself for more
than one year. However, as ball play
ers say, baseball contract is as vol
luminous as an insurance policy, and
there are technicalities which always
cause trouble.
O'Rrouke is an old New York team
man and an alteration between him
and that team is said to be the cause
of his prejudice. He has said that he
would let Robinson go to any other
team than New York. McGraw has
obtained his consent to let Robinson
out to Louisville and has turned him
over to that team. McGraw is wise
in his business and it is said that it
is very probable that he will have no
trouble in playing Robinson after he
plays with Louisville for awhile. Rob-
inson did not sign any contract with
Louisville.
Jim Ballantyne left by steamer last
night for Baltimore, where he will
probably be placed with the Baltimore
team of the Eastern League. Ballan-
tyne is in prime condition, and was

between Cochrane and Saussy was not
so close, Cochrane winning out by

Moses wore decidedly more Savannah
aspect, Moses playing an excellent
game and defeating his opponent by 4

to the last notch and in Panhard style
saved Savannah a bad drubbing by
defeating his man by UP. In the

before large gathering of onlookers.
His good condition and general show
ing in his work out has raised his
stock a good deal, and it would not be
at all surprising if he goes to the ring
side the favorite.
Miller practically went through the
same routine, taking an exceedingly
long road journey in the morning, and
used the Thunderbolt car for a pace
maker for three-mile heat. In the
afternoon he, too, fought his bag for

in for a smashing go with his sparring
partner. Miller's bag is of the variety

be racing on Friday evening. The
Travellers Protective Association will
be in convention on both days.
A telegram from Prince last night to
his representative in this city finally
settled the date upon which the CO.
liseum will be opened and the race
meet promoter will come to Savannah
from Atlanta as soon as the six-day
race has been concluded. This race
is now going on in Atlanta and will
be finished Monday night. The riders
are pretty we'll punched at this stage
of the game and the finish promises
to be the most exciting and interest
ing in the history of the game in the
South. Gussie Lawson, The Terri
BILE Swede," and Bobby Walthour are
the favorites in Atlanta.
Both the Swede and the Georgia
boy, who holds the title of champion
middle-distance rider of the world,
will be on the programme to be ar
ranged for the opening night. Law
son is Walthour's team mate in the
six-day go, but the men are bitter ri
walls when going it alone. Eddie Bald,
for a long time the worlds champion,
will also come to Savannah with
Prince. 1t has been several years
since Bald has been in this city and
it is said that he is in splendid form
at this time.
George Leander of Chicago, one of
the fastest sprint men in the world,
will be in the game both nights.
Prince wires that he will put on an
attractive card and it is probable that
the Coliseum will be crowded both
nights. Manager Kidder of the Sa-
vannah Electric Company has prom

in good shape before the Giants came
here. His work with them and with
Dunn. Davis and Robinson since the
team left has put him in excellent
shape.
Davis will leave tomorrow by
steamer for New York. 1t is now
said by players who are familiar with
the status of Davis with the Chicago
and New York teams that he will
have to go to Chicago if he wants to
get in the game this season. If he
had gone to Chicago and made no pre-
tense at fighting in the early season,
it is thought that he would have had
an opportunity later in the season of
effecting a transfer to New York.

known as the fastest in the country
and used by only a few of the fastest
men IN the game. 1t is said that the
FURIOUS Teddy McGovern passed one
OF them up as too rapid for him after
a trial with it. Millers work with that
part of his paraphernalia is a per-
rormance worth Witnessing and a rev.
elatlon to those who have never seen
tast man at work with one. His
work out with his sparring partner
was a biff and bang smashing match
and case of work from start to fin
ism. In his second round the pace got
so warm that he let out a link after
three or four rapid exchanges and
landed body blow that put his part
ner out for a time.

at the club hall tomorrow and Tues

and night performances as soon as the

show has written to the manager of
the track to know if quarters will be
given him for his stock at the track
stables, and asks if his show cannot be
given there. He writes that he has
a track illuminating apparatus and
will put on his performance at night,
