American Athletes Gain.
American athletes made a gain or the
British to-day IN the Stadium. but as yet
no light is forthcoming from the other
side as 10 the exact method Of point
scoring
If the minor sports. such as the swim
ming and cycling events. IS included in
the total. England still leads with a total
OF = points 10 81 for America. Taken
the other way-that Is. TO leave out cy-
cling and swimming. and count only the
I track and field events-Auerica leads
with a score Of 81. to % for the Brftfshers
At this stage Of the festival eleven
I finals have been run OF. and. figured on
: the basis OF five for a first. three for a
second, and one for a third. the fun score
is United Kingdom, y; United States. 81.
France, g; Sweden. 5; Australia. T. and
/ Greece. 3 The countries with one 10
I their credit are Germany. Austria. Bel
GUM. Canada, and Norway
In the track and field events proper It
is d case OF up-sticks with England and
! America as 20 first, both countries having
/ four apiece. but taking in the whole pro-
gramne England wiz be seen to have five
: frsts.
Roses work Disappointing
The performance Of Rose was a bit dis
/ appointing in the 1s-pound shot. and
would lead TO the inference that the
Americans are beginning to feel the wear
and tear Of the English capital more or
less
Private letters from England are to the
I effect that the big Californian put the
! sphere close on = feet after landing and
had the contest then been held a phe-
Domenal record would no doubt have hap
! pened- OF course he won first place
i easily, though the distance was nearly
two feet short Of the winning put at the
St Louis Olympic in 1904
The general dope was that the Yankees
would get the three places IN the contest.
/ but Dennis HoTgan bobbed I'D from Ire
I land and landed a comfortable second.
I One Of the luckiest athletes on the team
/ is Sheridan. who scratched out a winner
] from Giffn. OF Chicago. by ~ inches.
/ The throw Of I34 feet inches is short
{ Of the olympic record by nearly two feet.
[ and It Is more than five feet short Of the
/ American record OF 13s feet Il inches by
I Garrels. Jarvine. the big Finn" was
I to the fore. and though he has thrown Is3
/ feet at home, he could only scale the mis-
[ sile little over 1Zs feet today.
| George Cameron accounted for a heat
I Of the 1.C00-meter cycle event. but he got
7 lost in the second round among such
I cracks as johnson. kingsbuTy. and Jones.
/ Of England. and Schiller, Of France.
a NJ Goess!ing. Of the Missouri Ath-
I letic Club. came in second in the I00-meter
I back-st7Oke swimming and Il was the
] second fastest heat Of the seven. As
