FIVE FAVORITES GO DOWN
TO DEFEAT AT BELMONT

NEW YORK, October 12.-Five favor
ties were beaten at Belmont Park yester-
day, in the presence of 1900 spectators.
Jockey Miller was blamed for the down
fall of two of these choices, Suffrage and
Gretna Green, both from the keene
stable.
Suffrage went up to 13 to 5 in the Man
haitian handicap, for three-year- olds and
upward. at six furlongs, main track
while Jack Atkin, Baby Wolf Dreamer,
Kings Daughter, Oraculum and Bat Mas
terson were all well played.
Miller got Suffrage away well. but took
her up and was quickly In pockets. Then,
in the middle of the turn. he got the
Keene mare into close quarters on the
rail, and had to pull up short, which set
tied her chances.
The finish of this race was one of the
most exciting ever seen in the east. Baby
Wolf in the middle. with Jack Atkin on
the inside and Dreamer on the outside,
rushed down to the wire on even terms.
All were under the whip. but in the last
jump Dugan got Baby VOLTS nose in
front. while Dreamer beat Jack Atkin for
the place by an eyelash. The time was
112 Is.

MAY HOLD EXAMINATIONS
Action by Court in Case Against
Commissioners.

The United States civil service COM
mission may continue to hold examina-
tions at the request of the D. strict Com
mlssioners to decide on the qualifications
of applicants for positions under the To-
cal authorities so long as it pleases, pro-
vided in the conduct of the examinations
no public moneys be spent
The foregoing is the .purport of the de-
cision made yesterday by Chief Justice
Clabaugh, who, after hearing on the re-
turn and demurrer filed by the commits
sion to the petition for injunction instl-
tuted by DR.. J. Stewart Harrison and An
drew NJ. Curry, discharged the rule, sus-
tained the demurrer and dismissed the
bill.
But for the earnestness OF counsel the
chief justice suggested he would not have
consumed the time of the court in hearing
the discussion, since the case partook
largely of the nature OF moot question
for the reason that any order of the court
in the premises would be nugatory, be-
cause the appointment is always within
the discretion of the Commissioners of the
District Of Columbia.
The court characterized as absurd the
proposition that the District Commission
ers could not ask the civil service COM
mission to conduct the examination.
They might within their legal rights
though such action possibly might not
be just or equitable. designate any person
or persons to examine an applicant as to
his qualifications. mental or physical, pro-
vided they retained the de- ision as to the
appointment.
The court suggested that the proceed
ings. from remarks of counsel, appeared
to be instigated by some physician in
terested in a position under the District
government.
Gen. John C. Black, president of the
civil service commission, was present
throughout the hearing. Attorney Rich
ard P. Evans represented the petitioners
and Assistant United States Attorneys
Mcnamara and Proctor appeared for the
commission.

MOTTO REMAIN LEADER
DECISION BY JOHN MITCHELL
CAUSE OF DISCUSSION.

The declared determination of John
Mitchell to surrender the leadership of
the miners upon the expiration of his
term as president of the United Mine
Workers Of America has caused general
discussion and comment among local labor
leaders. Regret is heard on all Sides and
at the meetings of labor unions the upper
most topic Is President Mitchells pro-
posed retirement
Secretary Frank Morrison of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor when seen at
his office, 425 G street, today, said no Of
fetal confirmation had been received Of
Mr.. Mitchelrs alleged determination to
decline reelection to the presidency of the
miners organization. Mr.. Morrison added
that while the miners convention will be
held next January, Mr.. Mitchelrs term as
president will not expire until the follow
Ing April. He was not inclined to doubt
the correctness of the report concerning
the miners leader, as 1t had appeared in
the official organ of the mineworkers.
In his announcement to the officers and
members of the organization President
Mitchell says:
Il shall explain in greater detail in nv
annual report to our coming convention
the causes which impel me to give I'D the
nigh office to which you have elected me
for so many years.
L thank you for the confidence YOU
nave repoSed in me, and / beg YOU to be-
lieve that the advancement of nv craft
mas been my highest ambition"
Not Believed at First.
The statement is made that President
Mitchell, who led the miners to victory
in the great strikes of 1900 and 1902, is
excee dinghy popular with the working
men of the hard-coal fields, and many
expressions of disappointment were made
when the news spread through the re-
gions. The mineworkers have often heard
rumors that he intended to give up the
presidency of the organization. and the
latest report was at first not believed
If President Mitchell cannot be induced
to reconsider his decision not to again
be a candidate for the presidency it is
expected that the mineworkers of the an
thracite region will nominate Thomas d.
Nlchoils of Scranton, Pa, president of
district No. !. as their candidate for the
ONCE. Mr.. Nichols last November was
elected to Congress and will take his seat
In December. Mr.. Nichols has seyeral
times been mentioned as candidate in
the event of Mr.. Mitchelps retirement.
The miners expect that Interna ttonal
vice President Lewis and International
Secretary-Treasurer Wilson will also be
nominated for the office Mr.. Wilson.

dent Lewis was many times a candidate
against Mr.. Mitchell for the presidency

SONOMA GIRL EASILY WINS
THE CLASSIC TRANSYLVANIA

LEXINGTON, Ky, October 1.-THE
classic Pennsylvania here yesterday was
won by the racing queen of the present
trotting season, the California bred mare
Sonoma Girl. The famous mare was an
odds-on favorite in the betting but SO
often has this famous race gone to an
outsider that the hackers of the field
numbered hundreds.
On this occasion they took long chances,
as the celebrated mare never gave her
followers any uneasiness, winning each
heat In the last heat she trotted the
fastest third heat, save one. in the history
of the race. Her time yesterday was
2.OJA, while Sweet Marie went a third
heat in 205.
Horsemen rate Sonoma Girls third
heat yesterday superior to Sweet Marie's
performance, as a stiff wind was blowing
up and down the track and made the 60
ing all against fast time. This is the
second time, and in succession, that

EASTERN DEFEATS CENTRAL
HIGH SCHOOL TEAM

One of the hardest blows that the fol-
lowers of the Central High School have
suffered at the hands of the Eastern
High School since 1897 was the defeat
of their foot ball team yesterday after
noon at National Park by to O.
The boys from Capitol Hill outplayed
the Blue and White team at all stages
of the game The work of the Eastern
team was almost perfect, and their up-to-
date plays swamped the Central boys,
who used practically throughout the con-
test the old-style plays. To Jimmy Kerr
the star halfback of the Georgetown
Unive rsity team, is due considerable
credit for the game put up by the East
ern team. as out of handful or nght
youngsters he has formed team which
he has drilled in the tactics of the new
game.
Both teams played kicking game, in
which Capt. Hamilton of Central carried
off the honors. Some of his punts went
for fifty yards which on several occasions
possibly saved his team from being scor-
ed on. Martin, for Eastern also kicked
we'll. The Eastern backs were strong
and the support given them by their
linemen was good. Central had a strong
line, and Eastern could do nothing in
line bucking, but their interference was
poor, the man running with the ball
having to do almost all Of the work.
Capt. Farmer was the best ground gain
er for Eastern, while Hamilton was best
for Central.
Eastern scored its touchdown in the
second half Hamilton kicked to East
ern's S-yard line and on an exchange of
punts Morsell fumbled the ball and
Farmer fell on it for Eastern. The Cap
itol Hill eleven lost 1t on downs. Hamil-
ton again punted, and Eastern by push
ing its backs through the tackle posi-
tons and a successful forward pass car
ried the ball to Centrars O-yard line.
Martin tried for field goal, but the ball
was blocked. and Eastern recovered IT..
Farmer made an onside kick and Fftz-
hugh broke through the Central defense
and got the ball on Centrars 5-yard line
Capt Farmer then placed 1t on the 2
yard line and Martin was showed over
for the only touchdown. McGiffin missed
goal
Shortly after the next kickoff Eastern
carried the ball down the field and was
within striking distance of the goal when
time was called, the ball resting on the
S-yard line.

WHAT THE EXPERTS SAY.

Harvard is impressed with the work of
Oliver Cults with the linemen. Cults is
particularly pleased with the playing Of
Burr at tackle. 1t is proposed to build
both the offensive and defensive around
him.
Dague. the end rush who made SO good
a showing in the West Point game last
year, is declared by Paul Dashiel to be
playing as good a game at end for the
Navy as any end he has ever seen.
Hollenbeck and Folwell are likely to be
shifted to the line at Pennsylvania in
order to use the new halfback material
advantageously.
Coy's kicking for Yale is said to be the
best that has been done on Yale field
since McBride's day.
Dwyer has rejoined the PENNSYLVANIA
squad. having passed examinations In his
conditioned branches. This fills the only
weak hole in the Quaker line.
Cooney, the Yale center, weighs go
pounds, but he gets about as fast az Big
