grand circuit races closed on Charter Oak
Park track this afternoon with what was
expected to be the best event of the week
In the card, the 206 pace and the free
for-an, but each Of these proved a disap-
pointment. Three horses only faced the
starter in each event. when a good-szed
field had been promised. The favorite in
the free-for-all, Sweet Marie. won with
comparative ease over Mckinley and
George G. In the pace The Friend,
other favorite. after taking two heats in
jogging finish, broke badly in the next three
heats and King Direct took these heats
with little effort.
The crowd did rot like the failure of Tv-
erton to appear in the ee-for-all and one
of the judges explained that after the last
race In which Tiverton took part he went
shoes. 1t is probable that the horse will
not be raced again this season. Sum

Washington, D. G., Oct. 20.-Secy.

General Davis, chairman Of the board

General Davis and Mr. Shonts have
recently been on the isthmus and had
considerable information to impart

ditions. The secretary was informed
that preparatory work was being push
ed now, rather than actual work on
the canal, and expressed his approval
of that course, as he feels that 1t is
necessary to get everything in readi-
ness to make the real work of con-
struction success.
In regard to the published rumors to
the effect that the majority of the
members OF the consulting board of
engineers have decided in. favor of a
lock canal at Panama, General Davis,
chairman of the board, says $50 far
