SOLDIERS AT EUFAULA.
Georgia Guardsmen to Participate fn
 Chaufauutsa.

There will be a gpodly showing ot Georgia soldiers at tEa Eufaula Chau- tauqua, nine companies of the 4th In- fantry of that State having been al- lowed to come into Alabama by per- mission of Governor Jelks.
 It has been thought rather strange that there is no more interest on the part of the Alabama soldiers than has been evidenced.
 Governor Jelks went to Eufaula yss- terday to attend a portion of the exAr- cises, as they are being held in his home city.

The two other suits in which an order of publication was issued to bring the defendants. who are non- residents, into court. were those of c. E. Lang, vs. Annie Lang, and sogronia Everett vs. Henry Everett.

Mr.. Clark. watching the incident from the

with anger. He had frequently told his

The starter was unable to do anything
with the big field for nearly an hour, and
when they finally broke with Banastar In a
good position, Mainer did not see the nag

Ranastar was beaten an eighth OF a mile.

Nothing but the influence Of Mr.. Clark's
friends prevented him from giving Maher

two years and has never ridden In this
country since.

shared his confidence in both Maher ana

MISS SUTTON LOST
BRITISH CHAMPIONSHIP

A special cablegram to the New York
Herald from London says: Before nearly
5000 persons at Wimbledon yesterday Miss
May Sutton made a brave attempt to de-
fend her title to the British lawn tennis
championship. but at the end OF the splen-
did struggle, sparkling with brilliant eff
forts, the California girl was beaten by
Miss Douglass by two sets to love. the
score being 6-S. 81.
This result was not altogether unexpect-
ed. nor did the American girl. in her heart
of heaNts, believe she was going to repeat
the triumph of 1905. For one thing, her
opponent was admitted to be playing al
the top of her form, ana throughout the
present season she has passed through the
lists at open tournaments without SO much
as q scratch.
Another point was Miss Sutton's pre-
vtous defeat at Liverpool. 1t had shaken
the confidence she had hitherto reposed in
herself and that was fatal. But 1t must
not be supposed that Miss Sutton went
into the court beaten girl or that she
aid not make gallant effort to retain her
laurels After bad start she played mag
nifcently being only overcome by a great

of club that can do as little in the hitting
line and get away with IL as those Chicago

WIRE TAPPERS

NEW YORK. July 8-For the first time
In several years real wire tappers were sue

which is the distributing point.
It is estimated that from 10000 to $780,
OOo was won on the second race by agents
Of the tappers. A great deal Of this money
was sent back on horse in the third race.
After the result had been flashed to New
York the superintendent of the distributing
system became suspicious and held up the
race result until the fraud was discovered.
That New York pool rooms did not lose
a large sum OF money Is due to the disin-
ciination of the proprietors to accept large
wagers on windsor races. This is because
In Windsor the book Is controlled by a
syndicate which fixes the prices for every
book, condition that Is not satisfactory
to local pool room owners. Something like
80 600 was won by the swindlers in New
York on the second race. and how much
of this went back on the third race u not
known, although II is likely that consid-
cradle part of this amount was wagered.

JOHNSON TRANSFERS
ROSEBEN TO APPLEBY

NEW YORK, July B.-Roseben, at one
time the greatest sprinter in America, ran
in the name and coiors OF Lucien Applepy
yesterday. Davy Johnson owned him and
this change OF ownership went to prove the
recent stories that Davy was broke" and
had sold his stable of race horses last week
to secure cash to settle up his credit bets
with the boonmakers.
According to the reports IN circulation
he owed the ring $4,000 and was eager to
settle, but had no ready cash. He there
fore sought Appleby a lifelong friend and
his partner in the bookmaking business in
1887, to assist him financially. Appleby ad-
vanced a big sum taking as security all OF
Johnson's horses. The change OF owner
ship was made a few days ago.
Johnson was not at Sheepshead Bay track
yesterday. His friends stated that he was
busily engaged arranging for the settlement
of his markers" They confirmed his big
loss in the ring and said that he had lost
500 600 this year. The transfer of his
horses was not in the nature of a sale
these men said. but they were merely taken
over to protect Johnson and Appieby until
such time as the former is able to straight
en- out his affairs.
gone broke on the turf. During twenty
years of racing, as a bookmaker and a
plunger. he has lost several fortunes, which
in the aggregate foot up million dollars.
Time and again he has left credit bets be-
hind after disastrous season. but he never
failed to settle just as soon he got the
money. He has any number OF friends and
has several times started new career with
few thousand dollars, which he luckily
ran into big bank roll.
Roseben has been a money maker for
Johnson. During the two years he owned
him he won in bets close to $500 600. For
long period this horse was practically in
vincible over the short courses and won so
many races that Johnson, by betting large
sums on him, accumulated fortune. Ii
