to consider various districts. He re-

frankly that he will remain in Nevada
indefinitely and for some time he will
not consider any fighting offers, how

marks OF his encounter with Cans.
although he denies this In dispatches

There has been some talk Of Nelson
associating himself in the Chloride

Great railroad disasters are deplor-

ing--NigeI Barker Defeated in
220-Yard Sprint by Arthur
Duffey
BY Associated Press.


NEW YORK, Sept. S.-The senior
track and field championships of the
ANA teur Athletic Union of the United
States was decided on the Travers Is
land grounds of the New York Ath-
letic club. Contrary to expectations,
no new records were established and
none was even equaled.
The point trophy was won by the
Irish American Athletic club of this
city with So points, the New York Ath-
letic club being second with 3S.
The representatives of the Chicago
Athletic association were next with IL
points. Archie Hahn of the Milwaukee
Athletic club, who won the 100 yard
dash at Athens last May, failed to
qualify in the short sprint and finished
in the final of the 220 yard run.
Nigel Barker, the Australian, who
defeated Arthur Duffey in the antip-
odes, was beaten in his trial for the
220 yards spring.
The five milo run proved disappoint-
ing. George Y. Bonhag of the local
Irish American club started out to beat
e. G. Carter'S record of 1928 3-5. He
did well for two miles, but then lost
one of his shoes after he had secured
a big lead on William Nelson of Eng
land. who ran unattached. Bonhag ran
another mile before he stopped to put on
his shoe and this delay lost him the
race The Travers island athletic oval
was never in better condition and
Judging from the clever performances
of the juniors yesterday new records
are expected in at least three of to-
days contests.

the run down the back stretch.
At the turn Hildebrand sent Bedouin
up to the leader and in the stretch
Bedouin gradually caught F'inecloth,
and In a drive won by half a length.
| Demund easily won the $4,000 Flat
bush stakes at seven furlongs. In this
race the Futurity winner, IIlectioneer.
Fountain Blue, one of the best two
| year-olds of the year, and a number of
other good ones started, but at no time
did they threaten the winner. Foun-
tain Blue was made hot favorlte,
while to was laid against Elec-
tioneer, the other prices ranging from
to 40 to /.
Demund broke in the front and soon
he had lead of two lengths, which he
increased to four at the finish. Foun-
tain Blue showed some speed, but stop
ped suddenly and finished way back.
John M. p, the imported English

steeplechase, over the full course of

Miner, weight $50. Both live at 2212

They were found helpless in ditch at

policemen could not bulge either of
them. A plank and rope were secured
and each was skidded into the wagon.
At the station each was let down with
the tackle and plank in the same way.
During the entire operation their slum-
bers were not disturbed.

OF. PAUL, Mimi. Sept. .S.-Before a
crowd of $4,000 spectators Dan
Patch, the liking of the pacers,' -
today advanced the record held by him
self for pacing mile, the record prev
iously held being broken by a quarter
OF a second
Last year at Lexington Dan Patch
paced a mile in :55 1-3 and established
a record which horse breeders thought
could never be beSted.
The brown horse finished strong and
many unofficial watches caught the
time a quarter of a second faster than
the judges announcement.
Los Angeles herald., 1906-09-09

The third quarter was made in 0:29A.
AS. the horse turned into the stretch
Hersey for the first time touched his
horse with the whip. The two came
down the stretch at a terrible pace,
Patch working hard but still full of
life. The last quarter was made in
0:2S%.
AS the time was announced by the
judges a great demonstration was
made by the enormous crowd that oc-
cupied the grandstand and swarmed
over the grounds.
For the reason that Patch was ac-
companied by a runner there is a
doubt whether the record is to be
allowed by the trotting association.

will not be possible to utilize the heavy
line men at all in mass plays with this
restriction, and it is impoS Ssible, there
fore, that there can be any successive
or markedly successful line plays, al
though there will doubtless be line
buoking as of old. 1t will take the form
Of tackle plunges and cross bucks, how
ever, with dependence placed on the
weakened defense, to get away a good
run.
Injuries with us have not been i'm
portant. ] do not think you will ever
decrease them until you rigidly enforce
a. physical requirement before any man
can enter the game. If you cut out the
physically weak man there will be no
trouble whatever in avoiding dangerous
injuries, although injuries will always
be received.
1T was the little meannesses, the
direct attempt to annoy and inflict dis
tracing pain, that those who under
stood the game best sought most to
avoid. I think the mere separation of
the two lines by the length of the ball
will almost entirely correct this evil,
together with the restraint of another
official.
THE severe penalties do not believe
will be required often, though l am
heartily in favor of having them. Even
they do uot adequately punish some of
the offenses that we have all seen COM
mtted.
Game Benefited
Altogether, 1 should say the game is
intensely benefited by the changes in
the rules. And 1, who had no fault to
find with the old rules say that. As
the game was played at West Point, its
hardships and roughness did not appall
us. We had none of the 'dirtness' that
was so generally criticised. We wanted
strict enforcement Of rule more than
anything else. and think we have got
that in the board of umpires provided.
Il am not one who believes that You
will see the grand game die. n believe
that it's viriity and innate value will
pull it through its serious sickness and
that the coming season will see it re-
stored to all its lold-time popularity and
power. AS for styles Of play, let me say
the team that builds up the best defen-
sive system will be the successful team,
not the one with the strong offense."
