J. T. MADDEN IN MANY
BIG HORSE TRADES
Recommended >DaImatian to
Louis Winans for Lucky
Sam HiIdreth.

NEW YORK, August 27.-The purchase
Of s. c. Hildreth's three-year-old Dalma-
tan by Louis Winans of London for $40 :
600. or perhaps more. throws more light
upon the important figure cut by John
E. Madden in the making OF horse trades.
Mr.. Winans, an American, born In Bal
timore. il wealthy sportsman who be-
came identified with the trotters years
ago and incidentally purchased Sfliko
from Madden for $4,000. Becoming inter-
ested in the runners In England. where
he has lived for some time, Mr.. Winans
two years ago purchased Sir Martin and
howard from Madden. and according to
the latter he paid $4,000 and $4,000 re-
spectively. for these colts Sir Martin
was a crack two-year-old in this country
before he sailed for the other side where
he was made favorite for the Derby won
by the late King Edwards Minoru. Sir
Martin Tell. It will be recalled. when run
ming In prominent position in that
event. But In other British turf fixtures
Sir Martin proved his quality, so that
when he broke down recently. as cur
rently reported. by cable, Mr. Winans
turned to Madden again for another good
horse. t-@ -e -
Madden's close relations ON the Ameri-
can turf with Hildreth have been a sub
ject for much comment, and for that rea :
son 1t is assumed that the former sound
ed the praises Of Dalmatain TO the owner
of Sir Martin. with the result that the
Ethelbert three-year-old was hougbt FOR
princely sum and will race on the Eng
ish tracks next year. Madden 4fherefora
has done Hildreth good turn which Is
not at all strange In view of the wav Hill
dreth has been buying Madden's horses.
While many turfmen. have persistentIv ar
gued that Madden only leased the rum

Hildreth, both parties to the transactions
have stated that the sales were bona AIDE.
They have denied the report that the
ownership Of tItz Herbert was jnrpled
last spring when that famous horse wa .
reported sold to Madden by EiIdreth for
$4,000 and within two months was hand

phasis that he actually sold King lanes

at his word, therefore. it must he admit

Kindly state whether the ruling on half
games is such that a man betting there is
no such. thing as a half game wins or
loses. L. A. S.
The best way to answer your query will
be with your own argument.
II Chicago won 81 and lost % and Pitts
burg won 30 and lost %. Chicago would
be half a game in the lead. for IL the
two teams played and Pittsburg won they
would not be tied. but Pittsburg would be
leading with 81 won and IS lost against
Chicago's 81 won and &c lost, and yet
there was only one game played. A full
game Is a victory and defeat, and in the
figures you give Chicago has the advan-
tage OF one victory, but the defeats are

College authorities will hold up their

Of the younger Ten Eyck as crew coach.
Young Ten Eyck was a fine single-sculler,
but as a coach he was an unqualified
failure. The art OF sweep-rowing was a
closed book to him, apparently, and he
sent poor crews to the east. despite the
wealth of material from which to build
them. II will be difficult matter to find
a successor. for coaches OF eight-oared

BATTING AVERAGES

II Is now practically assured that Phila'

phia has a comma nding lead In the Amer

pennant hands down.
Chicago is leading the National League
by smaller margin. and there is still
possible chance for Pittsburg, but. bar
ring accidents and most unexpected
slump. the Cubs will win out.
The worlds series will be staged in Oc-
tober. and II will be the sixth clash be-
tween American and National League
champions.
The Boston Americans won the first Sc
ries from Pittsburg In 1908. The New
York Nationals beat the Philadelphia
Americans In 1905.
The Chicago Americans scored over the
