STRAY BITS OF SPORT.

"Talk about man wanting tho earth, in the way of good things" said Mique O'Brien to a group of turfmen in the Hoffman house the other. day; ''why you ought to have seen Eddie Foy in Covington pOOlrOom several years ago. Somebody handed him a 40 to 1 shot in the second race. FOy bet $2 on it and it won. He put eighty two bones in his pocket and began to smile when the same tout handed him q 6O to 1 shot in the next race. Eddie peeled three cases off the roll this time and bet it on the 60 to 1 boy. It lost, and Foy. as he scowled fiercely. said: "'WhatdO you think ofthe robbers any way?' He wouldn't bet a cent on an- other good thing for a week afterward, either"
 Bill Morley, the Columbia football coach. who has just come back from a visit to the City of Mexico, says that the swagger social organization there is called the Jockey club" that every body who is anybody belongs. and that nobody knows thing about horse rae. ing, for the reason that the sport has never been introduced in that country. "Bull-fighting and cock-fighting are all the rage just now," said Morley. yes- terday. ''but prize fighting is never tolerated. Base ball is being intro. duced now bit by several Americans, and may catch on. Football Oh. the greasers wouldn't stand for that at all. Never"

New York Americans Trim Montgomery - Nationals Spurt In Last Inning to Beat Bir mingham.

Montgomery, Ala. March 18.-The New York Americans beat Montgom- cry again yesterday, but it was close squeeze and it looked like defeat for Griftith's Highland tribe for six fruit less innings. Several iof the New York players sported green ribbons in their caps in honor of the day, and having no intention of being vanquished Oh such an occasion they rallied in splen- did style in the seventh inning
 The hit and run game, worked to perfection, started New York's scoring. Anderson hammered a double to left field. Yeager flied out and McGuire sauntered down on four balls. Ander- son and Mcclure got under way for a double play, the Montgomery shortstop ran over to take the catcher's throw to second and Duff hit safely through short. Anderson scored: then hits by Clarkson and Fultz sent in three more runs. .
 Duff's all round playing was excep- tionally good. He threw to bases with precision and did fine piece of back ing up in the second inning. Gardner hit to right and Yeager would have thrown him out at first base had he thrown straight. AS it was the ball sailed over McGuire's head, but Duff was on the spot. bounced on the ball and headed off Gardner at second base. Orth pitched six innings for New York and was hit freely. However, one of Montgomery's runs was due partly to an error. Clarkson pitched l superbly the last three innings. Not | a hit was made off him and the only man to reach first on him did so | through an error. Elberfeld was in the game for five innings. He and Williams and Mcclure put through a lightning double play. Elberfeld was inclined to be too lively, and Griffith took him out lest he hurt himself. The first pitcher in against the New Yorks
 was southpaw. He looked to be easy. but the visitors could not bunch hits on him. The score:

THE SPORTING NEWS.
WAGNER HAS GRIEVANCE.

Pittsburg, March 1S.-The real cause Of the trouble between President Drey. fuss of the Pittsburg base ball club and Hans Wagner, the star shortstop, leaked out yesterday. When the American league was making such in. roads into the talent af the National, Wagner was offered $15,O00 for two seasons if he would jump. The money was to be placed in any bank or trust company that Wagner might name, and he was to receive $6OOO before the season opened; it was stipulated that, should Wagner be injured and inca pacitated at any time during the two years he was to receive the full amount of ,the money.
 The same offer was made to Iajoie. who accepted it, while Wagner pre- sented the matter to Dreyfuss. The latter advised him to remain, assuring him that he would do as well by him as the American league. This promise, 1t is claimed, has not been kept.
 Wagner was naturally not inclined to accept a reduction this year. There still remains doubt as to whether Wagner has signed for this season. He is still at his home here, and says he does not know when he will join the team.

A commission has been appointed at St. Petersburg under the presidency of General Roop, member of the council of the empire. to investigate the surrender of Port Arthur and act as a court to determine the responsi. bility of General Stoessel.
 A dispatch from St. Petersburg says that fighting still continues north of Tieling.
 An official report from Tokyo says that twO-thirds of the provisions which the Russians had stored at Tieling raib way station were burned. having been set on fire by the Russians when they began their retreat. The Japanese cap. tured many trophies and also prison CTS. the number of whom has not yet been estimated.
 General kurcpatkin lost eighty guns at Tieling. His loss in killed and wounded there Is estimated at 19.010. Late dispatches from the front an- uounce that General Linevitch had as- stunned command and that General ku- ropatkin had departed for St Peters burg. which diSpoSes of a rumor that the latter had committed suicide.

of the opponents of the American style of skating. as opposed to the Swedish style. which is now. according to ex- perts. beginning to fall into disuse. The new American style. or New York style as some call 1t, consists in the figure skater holding his arms close to his sides and going through the different rolls and curves without any attention being paid to grace or ease. The Swed- ish movements insist upon the skater making longer and more graceful curves and at the same time keeping his body in graceful attitudes. The arms are continually moved into different po- sitions at every stroke of the skates. pr. John Sandbloom. of Chicago. who went to New York to take part in the event. says that the New York or Amer ican method is prevalent now in the east. and that the Swedish is dropping out of style. Mir Keane is one of the best figure skaters I have seen" said Dr. Sandbloom. He is more graceful than many others who affect the Ameri- can style. and seems to balance himself more by curving his body than by his arms. Many of the men who won points in the fgure-skating contest went through the moves doubled up like jack knives. which. to a westerner- or to one who has been used to the Swedish style. is not very pleasing"
