A. G. Vanderbilt
BADLY B|LKED
Famous Whip Made Victim of
English "Gyps" at Sale of His
Horses in London.
THEY COMBINED AGAINST HIM
Sent Out False Reports, Bid in His
Animals for a Song, Sold Them
For Long Prices.

New York, July 21.--The arrival OF
Aired Gwynne Nanderbilt's horses
yesterday on the Atlantic Transport
company liner Minnehaha developed the
fact that the famous whip was made
a victim of English "gyps" during the
sale of his coach horses at Tattersalls.
London His loss in the transa elton
was in the neighborhood of $4,000 Mr..
Vanderbilt bought go American trot-
ting-bred coach horses and shipped
them with his team of famous grays
to England. Early in May he put his
coach venture into commission and be.
gan his daily runs, leaving London one
day and Brighton the next After six
weeks on the road, during which time
he broke in the horses. he announced
the sale of his horses by auction al
Tattersalls, London.
on the day appointed big crowd of
curiously inclined was on hand at Tat
tersalls, but in the meantime the Eng
lish "gyps,' or cheap horsemen, formed
a clique and circulated the rumor that
Mr.. Vanderbilt had reserved the best of
his horses to take back to America and
would offer only those for which he
had no use. The report found credence
and as a result the British show own
ers failed to appear. The 'gyps' had
the bidding practically to themselves.
The sale was conducted in the inner
ring at Tattersalls and the 56 horses
sold at an average of about $3.50 each
on the day following the Vanderbilt
sale, which was practically private the
English horsemen put UP the horses
they secured from Mr.. Vanderbilt 70,
sale in the outside. or public ring, and
realized big prices on them, In ont
case. where they had secured a horse
for $3.50. they re-sold II for $500, while in
another. where splendid bay was
Knocked down to one of the clique for
$3.50. ii was later purchased by a promi-
nent English horse show exhibitor for
over $500. There We're several cases of
this kind, and the 80 horses secured by
the English dealers at an average of
5000 a head We're re-sold for nealry $500
head, giving a clear profit of about
Sl5. 900 for the Brtishers.

THAT BALL GAME
AT GLENWOOD SPRINGS

Sundays so-called ball game be-
tween Glenwood and the All Stars of
western Colorado turned out to be
very farcical exhibition, the final
score of which was II to in favor
of Glenwood.
The visitors were practically the
Clifton team in toto, and they were
no match whatever for the locals,
who simply fooled with them.
Willett lobbed the balls over the
plate as slowly as he could. but at
that four hits was the best the visit
ors could do, while the Clifton twirl-
er was touched up for hits whenever
the boys felt like running. The To-
calls could have made more had they
tried very hard.
Wednesday night the team leaves
for Denver. where. on Saturday, Sun
day and Monday, they will play the
Luxus team at Broadway park. With
Sandusky, Ballinger and Willett to
do the box work. the locals hope at
least to even up the score with Reid's
bunch. which will make Glenwood
one of the contenders for the state
championship Post
