W. K. Vanderbilt's Turenne Finished
Second.

Edmond Blanc's bay colt Ajax. by Flying
Fox-Amie, yesterday at Paris, won the
Grand Prix de Paris. Of $4,000; distance,
about one mile and seven furlongs. M.
Blancs stable thus has accomplished the
rare feat of carrying Off three great con-
tests Of the year-the Prix de Diane the
French equivalent of the English Oaks, the
Prix du Jockey Club the French equivalent
of the English Derby and the Grand Prix.
Everything combined to make the occa-
sion a great success The weather was de-
lightful. the clouds tempering the heat with
out threatening rain. The field for the
chief race was large and of high quality,
and the attendance was both large and fash
ionable. The interest was increased by the
use for the first time of the new stands
which were built during the winter.
President Loubet, with Nine. Loubet.
drove in state to the course and received
the heartiest greetings from the huge crowd
which was gathered along the route. After
receiving welcome from the authorities of
the Jockey Club members OF the cabinet
and the diplomatic corps, President Loubet
expressed his delight at the beauties OF the
new presidential stand. He watched the
race with the keenest interest. congratulate
Ing the owner of the winner before leaving
the track.
Fourteen horses started for the Grand
Prix, about half a dozen being at fairly
short prices, though Ajax was hot favor

SUBURBAN COMES NEXT.
Splendid Field Of Thoroughbreds Will

Notwithstanding its enlarged field stand.
there is good ground for the assertion that
the Coney Island Jockey Clubs officials
will be at their wits ends to provide ade-

Thursday next, when the twenty-first Sub.
urban handicap is to be run. Given any
sort Of weather other than a nor easter, -
and the record-breaking assemblages which
saw the Metropolitan and Brooklyn handi-

There is. happily. plenty Of room on the

and as the usual precedent will be follow
ed Of permitting the eager thousands from
the field to overflow into the emerald-cov-
cred area which has long ago been declared
the most picturesque in America, there is
little fear that any one will be prevented
from having as good a view as he or she
may desire II the right points are chosen
from which to see.

base ball league. vociferous coaching was
one feature of the game, being hurled at
the players from the spectators. who lined

Notwithstanding some loose plays. both
sides erring to the same extent; bits OF
brilliant fielding and terrific batting CROP

of the Kismets had offered the players on
his team, by way of encouragement. a
handsome peari-handled knife to the bats

bases, the ball landing in the road near the

SUNDAY AMERICAN GAMES.
New York, Q; Chicago, O.

Griffith's foxy pitching, aided by superb
fielding on the part of his men, proved too
much for the White Sox yesterday at Chi
cago. and they were shut out in one of the
finest games of the season. Chicago was
dan gerous only once in the sixth inning
when Holmes drove out two Dagger, but
overran second base and was caught before
he could get back. New York scored once
in the third round a base on balls to
Thoney. two outs and some lightning base
running. In the eighth Keller hit for two
bases and rushed home when Williams
pushed safety into left field.
The game fairly sparkled with great
fielding plays. Running catches by Keeler
and Thoney. a one-handed catch by Con-
roy and a great stop by Callahan were fea-
lures and kept the crowd on edge.
The people broke down the fence between
the bleachers and the outfleld and swarmed
out on the grounds after the fourth inning.
