SIX DAY BICYCLE RAGE.
Bobby Walthour and Partner One
 Lap Behind.

Bobby walthoar and Partner One
 Lap Behind.
 NEW YORK, Dec. 12.-Thousands of persons were drawn to Madison Square Garden to witness the six day bicycle race, which began midnight Sunday.
 The most interesting features of the grind were the attempts on the part of Bobby Walthour of Atlanta, Ga, and his team mate, John Bedell of Long Island, to make up the deficit of one lap which they incurred when they doubled up as a reconstructed team. They made frequent spurts ahead of the bunch. but each time they failed to make a gain. All the riders are watching this pair very closely and are on the constant alert lest Wal thour or Bedell gain the coveted lap.
 Walthour came very nearly fooling the field late last night. when he gain- cd almost lap after desperate sprint, but unfortunately there was spill. and. although he was not in It. under the rules he was not allowed the advantage he had gained.
 At noon today all the teams had made 1.O9S miles except walthour and Bedell, who were one lap behind.

 the Fighters.

Rhyolite, Nev, Dec 12.-Jack O'Brten and Tommy Burns have agreed to fight to finish for a purse of $25.000. Details will be arranged at meeting of principals and pro- motors soon.
 At Los Angeles O'Brien accepted a lucrative offer to do a boxing stunt on the stage, and was to have begun his engagement last night. It is necessary, however, that an operation be performed on his nose, and the surgeon has ordered him to abandon all engagements for week or more. OBrien was somewhat disappointed over not landing the position of lec- turer with the pictures of his fight, but the theatrical engagement will pay him quite as we'll. His nose was badly injured in the last battle, and will require careful patching and at tention.

 Frank Delehanty, left fielder for the New York Americans, was oper- ated upon for appendicitis, in his home in Cleveland last week. He is recovering rapidly.
 It is reported in Reading, Pa, that Ia Tri-State league team is to be or ganized there next season, backed by Connie Mack, and Monte Cross will be made manager.
 Charley Murphy Is fathering a scheme to have all ball players num- bered. with corresponding numbers printed on the score cards. The players numbers are to be attached to the sleeve or back of the uniform. Murphy thinks spectators would like this innovation.
 All of the owners appear to be in the field for trades. but all want to make something by them. Most of them are satisfied with their present teams, but all say they are willing to make a deal if they See any ad- vantage in it. There is much inter. est in the disposal of the two ex- managers, Jimmy Collins of Boston and Jake Stahl of Washington.
 Tommy Corcoran, the Cincinnati shortstop, is to manage the Baltimore team next season if waivers for him can be had. Manager Hanlon of Cincinnati took occasion to laugh at the report that Miller Huggins was to come to New York. Asked if he had any proposed changes in the playing rules in mind, Hanlon said he hadn't thought of any. Don't know where any are needed" he observed.
 When Dovey of Boston heard that Ebbets had offered $12,000 for three Chicago players he raised the bid to $15,000. Ebbets reiterated that he never had any intention of parting with Lumley and Jordan. Tt would be suicidal" he declared. 'I'll give S3O, 900 for two ball players that I can name, and that is on the level, too. The two in mind would make us a pennant winner. As our club now stands we'll be in the hunt for the pennant. The Brooklyn club expects to make money next year, and isn't going about 1t by weakening the team"

Starting the Ball Going For the Coming Season -Notes About
 the Game.

New York, Dec 12.-Although in- terest in the annual meeting of the National league of baseball clubs fcentered in the election of a presi- dent, no action in this direction was taken yesterday. Routine business occupied the attention of league members.
 Harry c. Pulliam is a candidate for reelection as president, but is being strongly opposed by rival in- terests headed by John T. Brush of the New York club and Garry Her mann of Cincinnati. James T Hart, formerly owner and president of the Chicago club, was also spoken of as a possible candidate.
 The exchange of Ritchey, second baseman; Flaherty. pitcher, and one more player of the Pittsburg club for Abbatichio. second baseman of the Boston club, was announced. Bar ney Dreyfuss. president of the Pitts burg club, announced that Fred Clarke would again be manager of the Pittsburg club next season. He has not yet signed contract" said Dreyfuss, "but have his assurance that he will"
 President Pulliam read his annual report and declared that, financially. the last year was the best that the National league has had. The fol- lowing resolution was offered by Charles II. Ebbets of Brooklyn, and unanimously adopted:
 Resolved, That 1t is the unani- nous vote of this league that Presi- dent Pulliam be most heartily com mended for his untiring efforts in enforcing proper discipline on the National league ball field during the year 1906."

WRESTLING
MATCH THAT
 WILL BE FAST
Blondin and Gresham to Settle Old Scores -Jin Barne. Gets
 Many Challenges.


 A match of real interest will take place tomorrow evening down in the Simonsville Athletic club that will bring together two Waterbury boys who have had 1t in for each other for some time. The fact that it has not been generally advertised does not worry either one of the two because they do not care if only themselves are present. The two are Young" Bl0ndin and George Gresham. Each has put up $25 that he can win and both have been training to beat the band. Blondln has youth, strength and fair amount of science at his command. Gresham has the exper- fence and cleyerness, but has several more years as a handicap. Aside from the side bet, Manager Joe Lawlor will give the winner gold medal. This is match that will settle an old riv- airy once and for all time. It will be a better match than some of the so- called champion affairs.

AFTER JIM BARNES.

Springfield, Dec 12.-Still another wrestler of note is seeking match with Butch" Saar, alias Jim Barnes of this city, and the indications are that the Springfield athlete is on for a busy season. The latest aspirant for a victory over Barnes is Oscar Otto. who styles himself the Belgian champion, and who says he has been in this country but two months. He writes from Brooklyn. N Y, saying he wants to add the middleweight championship of America to his lau- rels. and that he has been advised that he will have to defeat Barnes to accomplish his purpose.
 Otto states that when he first came to America, lie headed for the sunny south, and there engaged in three matches which netted him that same number of victories. His victims as he gives them were Charles Reinecke in Richmond, Va, Prof M. J. Dwyer in Norfolk. Va, and Johnnie Maflcobe in Portsmouth, Va. He says he weighs 160 pounds and that before he came to this country he was able to staye of the terrible Hacken- schmidt. whom he tackled in Eng land, where the champion was meet ing all corners.
 In the list of those who are trying to get matches with Barnes, Joe Ac- ton comes first. and the Englishman is expected to accept the proposition for a match in this city in which the winner will get the gate receipts. Barnes says he will take on Acton for the gate receipts and side bet if one is wanted. and is now waiting to hear from Acton. Americus of Baltimore has been told that he is next in line,

LuNDIN TO MEET pIErRo.

Worcester, Mass, Dec. 12.-- Hjalmar Lundin and Pietro, conquer or of Frank Gotch. were matched here last night to wrestle in Mechan- les hall, December 19. under catch as-catch-can rules. The match has been hanging fire for some time, the Canadian Athletic club of Montreal being anxious to secure the contest. Lundin refused to meet Pietro across the border. because Pietro is under contract to the club and is appearing in the tournament now under way there. George w. Kennedy. Pietro's manager. dropped down here yester- day. liked the look of things, and signed the articles. The match Is for a purse of half the gross receipts, of which 75 per cent goes to the winner. Last April Pietro sent Gotch to the mat in hurry up style.

PROPERTY
CLOSED DOWN

(From our regular Correspondent
Rhyolite. Nov. Glowing to the fact
that internal d-issensions have arisen in
the Rush mpan the property was
closed down on Nov. 10th, and it is not
known when operations Will be resumed.
The Rush has hitherto been regarded as
among the promising prospects of the
Bullfrog district and information has
been to the effect that it was a big
low grade milling proposition. A repre-
sentative of the News visited the prop
erty for the purpose of gaining a more
definite knowledge as TO values and gen
eral development. The winze started on
the north lateral tunnel, supposed TO be
following the ore shoot is now down Ia
feet. A sampling of a 10-foot face made
by this papers representative, returned
by a reputable Rhyolite assay office
$40 to the ton in gold. 40 feet below
this, at the winze station on the main
crosscut, a sampling of a similar face
gave return of $1.20. The bottom of the
winze is now in basalt, which returns
only slight values. Supt. Boston, of the
Rush, urges however. that the Wine
has cut into the basalt foot wall. and
consequently no values can be expected.
He says that the vein is dipping east
at an angle of 40 degrees, and that the
winze cut out of it at a depth of 12s
feet below the level of the main cross
cut. In the locality of departure he
states that fair milling values were OBJ
tanned.
The Rush holds one of the exceptional
development records of the Bullfrog
district. Operations were begun in
- tLf. ,-o,, o,1 %. the date
of closing down approximately $500
feet of development work were accom-
plished. The ground embraces four
claims or so acres, and is situated on the
west side of Bonanza Mountain. There
are said to be four distinct vein systems
of which the Rush is the chief, and on
which the main part of development
work has been done. This work has been
lone on the Rush vein, which extends
for the entire length of the Rush claim,
or a distance of 1900 feet. The width
of this claim is supposed to vary be-
tween $50 and 300 feet. 1t was given
out last summer that values as high
as 5000 in gold with some sight silver
returns had been obtained. The main
ore shoot was encountered in the north
lateral tunnel of the Rush vein. and it
is this shoot which has been followed
by the winze referred to.
Besides the Rush vein there IS the
Annex vein. the Venture vein. and the
Denver vein. The development on the
Index claim which is said to contain
the well known Denver vein. consists of
several hundred feet of tunnel work
which is said to reveal practically the
same mineral conditions as that found
on the Denver property. The width of
this vein is said to be between 80 and 40
feet, and the values to be of al excellent
milling grade. Besides the tunnel work,
the ompan has a shaft down between
80 and 100 feet.
While the ground is very favorably
ituated and has been hitherto favorbly
regarded, there are many in camp who
claim that sufficient depth has not been
obtained TO reveal ore of a paying
quality.
