HALSWELLE "BoRED" HIMSELF.
Amid the cheers of several hundreds
OF his countrymen, Halswelle, the Eng
lish runner, this morning walked
over in the final OF the 400-meter fiat
race in the Olympics which was run
originally last Thursday and won by
J. c. Carpenter. Cornell university.
This is the race that was declared void
by the judges on the allegation which
has been denied by the Americans that
Carpenter fouled Halswelle. Carpen-
ter was disqualified from competing
again and ]. B. Taylor. Irlsh-American
laN. lab al n IJIl
Cambridge, Mass, withdrew and would
lot run today.
Halswelle did not really walk; he
ran, and ran hard, in an effort to es-
tablsh a new Olympic record His
performance was a very great disap
pointment after all that had been con-
fidently expected, II was firmly be-
lieved that the most talked of athelete
In the stadium, until the Marathon
race results displaced him in this re-
gard, would clip at least a fraction of
second off the record of 49h
Instead, 1t took Halswelle a full so
seconds TO cover the distance. He
started hard just as in the case OF last
THURSDAY, he was all out when he
came TO the stretch after rounding the
turn where all the trouble In the pre-
Nious race occurred A geat cheer
went up when Halswele finished, but
much to the surprise OF the spectators
IL was several minutes before a flag
was unfurled and sent TO the ton of
the staff to denote British victory.
The blue Jackets having this work in
hand had mislaid their Union Jack
and they had to requisition one from
me decorations of the stadium. Halls
welle had done what he believed
TO be right but the experts thought
mat he mas hardly justified his pre-
dictions that he was able to beat
Carpenter and Robbins, both of whom
made better time on Thursday than
the English runner made TO-DAY,
