HORSES TO START

TODAY.

NEW YORK, Oct 2l-From the
broad, sweeping stretches Of Belmont
Park to the narrow quarters of the
Jamaica track the thoroughbreds
wended their way over the Long Island
roads today, and tomorrow the next
10 last meeting Of the year on local
tracks win begin.
The change will be a welcome one.
too, as the mixture of straightaway
racing and swerving at Belmont Park
has not pleased even those steady pa
irons of the turf who turn up their
coat collars and brave the cold October
winds. They are longing for confined
Jamaica, because there they will have
the olo-ttne merry -go-round struggles
that begin at the start and last to the
finish.
There IS no Excelsior handicap to
feature the fall meeting at Jamaica
such as there is in the spring, but the
Pierrepont has attracted the best
horses in the country. The other races
have filled well and, as that usually is
a criterion, the meeting promises TO be
a successful one.
Now that c. H. (Boots) Durneu is in
good standing on the turf the friends
OF John J. McCanerty are making an
effort to have the ban lifted from him.
The cases OF both men are Identical
and horsemen declare that there is no
lOElcdl reason why McCauerty should
not be reinstated.
McCaferty had many friends who
were willing TO abide by the decision
of the stewards, who ruled both men
on last winter, but now that Durnell
is reinstated they demand that similar
treatment be accorded McCanerty. I'm
less it is one of his friends, an inauen-
tiaI lawyer, may bring suits against
the Pacific officials, charging conspir-
scy with others against 8IcCaferty.

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE cArr.

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.-That a $780,
100000 merger of the packing COM
panies is in the course of construction,
to be incorporated in England, was
confirmed tonight by Frederick Sulz-
berger of the firm of Schwarzchild G.
Sulzberger. While declining to enter
into a discussion. of the matter, Sulz-
berger said that his packing house had
been invited to join, but had refused
to do So
The Schwarzschild & Sulzberger Co.
took this stand, they say, because such
a merger could only be operated in
direct violation of the antitrust law
Sulzberger would not admit having
heard that the Western interests had
endeavored to obtain capital from New
York bankers and had been turned
down by them for fear of the strong
arm of the Government. Through one
of the most prominent bankers of this
city it was learned, however, that an
attempt had really been made to obtain
the $500,000,000 in this city to finance
the merger on the proposition that the
holding company would move to Lon
don for charter purposes
That the bankers here are anna zed
at the proposition is shown by the fact
that four of the most prominent bank
ers of this city were in conference not
far from the Hotel Netherland tonight.
Zach one agreed that 1t would be i'm
possible to form legal packing com
bination in this country.
CHICAGO, Oct. 21.-The heads Of the
various packing companies of Chicago
are unanimous in the denial of the re-
ported merger. j. Ogden Armour. Louis
+. Swift and Edward Morris said that
they knew absolutely nothing of any
scheme for the packing interests to
be taken over by an English or any
other holding company The report
that Sir Thomas Upton was behind the
plan was denied by Edward Morris.

NEW Use FOR TIN HORNS.

Tin horns such as venders bring out
by the wagon load in the citys streets
on election night are stock articles of
sale the year around in the stores of
dealers in marine supplies. On every
boat bigger than a rowboat noise
maker of some sort is as necessary an
item of equipment as the anchor, to
give warning of the vessels presence
or approach.
Thousands. of tin horns of various
sizes are annually sold to fishermen,
oystermen and men using boats in
many waters, in various pursuits, and
such horns are sold as well for boats
used for pleasure. A big horn of this
kind might be heard mile.
For larger vessels, such as schooners
sailing in open waters and not equipped
with power with which to blow whis-
ties, there are provided mechanical fog
horns that can be operated by hand
and that can be heard three or four
miles away.
With the multiplication everywhere
within recent years of pleasure craft
there have been introduced still other
sorts of noisemakers. One of these is
a bellows horn with the horn attached
to the top board of trinity finished
bellows of oblong shape, to the top
board of which also is attached a
handle This bellows horn can be put
down anywhere and operated simply
by pressure. Though not as big as the
mechanical foghorn, it can be heard for
a considerable distance.
Still another modern noisemaker is
an air blown whistle with light con-
trivance attached When the whistle
cord is pulled the light shows as the
whistle blows. Obviously. the light at
tachment is for nse at night to locate
the boat from whicn the whistle is
blowing.

morning in a collision between the

near the corner of Turk and Webster

going at furious rate of speed. and
though he changed the patrol wagon
bell loudly the motorman failed TO
slow up.
The wagon was coming from the cor

it was summoned to take Mrs. Ella

petition.

The tennis at the park yesterday
did not come up to expectations. 1t
was expected the closing rounds of the
annual Bay Counties Championship
Tournaments would provide some ex-
citing sport. The play was confined
mostly to doubles, which in a measure
accounts for the slow matches. The
teams that participated were somewhat
lacking in class. Reuben Hunt and
Clarence Griffin carried off the honors,
defeating Fred Adams and Guy Lyt-
ton in the finals.
Adams and Lytton proved no match
for their opponents and the outcome
was not long in doubt. Adams worked
like a Trojan and at times played
brilliantly. Lyttons game, which is
an entirely defensive one, did not prove
effective against Griffin and Hunt. The
losers lobbed well, but their net work
was poor. Superior overhead work
on the part Of Hunt and Griffin was

Marius HotchkiSs and Ray Gorrlll.
Even after defeating the Long broth
ers last Sunday, Hotchkiss and GorriH
were not taken seriously. They came
within an ace of beating the tourna-
ment winners yesterday, and surely
would have done so but for over-anX-
iety on the part of Hotchkiss. On
several occasions he and his partner
were within a point of the match. Each
time Kotchkiss fell down on an easy
chance.
PLAYS SPECTACULAR GAME.
Hotchkiss, however. was the star of
the day. He did some terrific smash
ing and driving and elected rounds
of applause from the spectators. After
each team had won a set, Hotchkiss
and Gorrin led at SD and 4o-3O, but
finally lost the set 81.
Charles Dunlap and George Baker
played below form as a team in their
match with Adams and Lytton. he
latter lobbed continually and their op-
ponents frequently netted the ball or
put it out of bounds Dunlap played
we'll but did not receive as good sup
port as usual from his partner. who
was out of practice. Adams and Lytton
won in straight sets.
The tournament committee used
ra ther poor judgment when it side
tracked the Hunt Mclaughlin match
expected to prove one of the most in
teresting of the tournament. Young
Mclaughlin, the pride of the park, will
be pitted against a man of almost ma
tional reputation. The latter's play is
being watched. with especial interest
for the reason that it will afford a
line on the skill of the Pacific Coast
players as compared with that of the
Eastern cracks, against whom Hunt
made a splendid showing in numerous
tournaments. The decision to relegate
the Mclaughlin match to a week
day was received with bad grace by
the spectators. 1t will be played next
Saturday afternoon.
Three matches were played in sin
giles, but only one proved at all close.
Hunt and Griffin figured in the latter
and the former was awarded the ver-
dict. Griffin won the second set easily.
