Especial from United Press.)


 London, July 16.-Serious English journals have begun a discussion of the Jeffries-Johnson fight at Reno, the queer part of the affair being that the British public, which gener ally delights in anything it believes reflects adversely upon America or Americans, is suddenly all in favor of the dominant races suppression of the negro.
 The London afternoon Star is prac- tically the only publication that has criticised the outbreak of anti-negro violence which was reported here Soubtless with great exaggeration- to have occurred all over the United States immediately after the result of the fight was announced. Even the Stars criticism was due to desire to retaliate upon Ex-President Roose welt for his strictures upon England's failure to keep better order in Egypt.
 The rest of the British press takes the surprising attitude-surprising for the British-that 1t is quite natural for white Americans to have resented the defeat of their champion. AS ser ious a paper as the London Times commenting on the fact that Ameri- cans dislike to see a white man beat en by negro, remarks:
 "The feeling, we think, is not con fined to America. It is very easy for us in England, where we have no

Sam Hildreth Race Track
 Winner With $41, ,OO0
Special from United Press. :,

New York, July 16.-Sam C. Hild- reth today took his place at the head of the list of winning owners of race horses of 1910, with $41, ,000 in purses and stakes to his credit. When it is recalled that, owing to adverse rac- ing laws of this state, nearly all the big purses and stake races have been cut vastly it can easily be seen that Hildreth has been winning a lot of races to accumulate $41,000. James R. Keene had been at the top of the list ever since Sweep won the Rea- lizat1on stakes. but Dalmatian's vic- tory in the Iroquois stakes yesterday at Empire City gave the honors to Hildreth. Only two horses faced the starter. Dalmatian and Sager, the Canadian derby winner. Dalmatian had to do his best at the start but at the end drew away and finished as he pleased.

The excitement crowded into the fifth was complete silence as com pared to that of the sixth, when the Mechanics had man on every cor ner with none out. Nallin opened the inning by beating out a bunt and Perkins messed up grounder from Crooks, Ladd bunted and the play was made fH Nallin at third, but Perkins was off the bag and the run ner was safe. Stowe sent one to Guest, who shot it back to Ball for a force out on Nallin. Miller fell into the same trap and Croks was out at home. Snyder then took three cracks at the ball and hit only the air.
 Though he was already pretty solid with the crowd, Case made himself still more so by starting the last of the sixth with single to short right. Larkin sent him to second with a neat sacrifice and it looked like a line to center; but there was still the youngest old man of them all to reckon with. Old Ladd raced in like a colt, grabbed the ball and sent it sailing to Kocher in time to get Case by i've yards: As Case came in. he collision helped to cause his retire. ment. Garry got to second on the throw, but Waite fouled to Kocher.
 Christopher flied to Ladd in the eighth, but Larkin's infield fly drop ped in safety when Snyder and Stowe both rushed for it. Garry landed a line drive in right field. and as Kus- tus tried to grab 1t to keep Larkin from going to third, the ball went through and to the fence, Darkin scoring and Garry getting to third. A play was made for Garry, and aft or getting the ball, Miller tossed it In the air couple of times As it was coming down, he made reach for it and instead of catching it, de. hected 1t off into left field, Garry scoring. The score:

Grim was particularly sore over the
reception given after coming here In
the expectation of getting the Ports

were practically poweriess to do any
thing. as they had signed contracts
that could not be revoked. Grim IL
recognized as one of the best base

MANY STAND AND

New Rule of Street Car Company
Causes Some Con-
.-- fusion. -,-----------

Considerable confusion and many
amusing incidents occurred Sunday
and Monday following the new order
OF the street car company TO stop all
cars on the near side OF transfer
points and on the far side OF streets
not transfer points, Motormen were
disposed to sympathixe with the peo-
pie who stood on the far side at the
intersection OF lines and would re-
peatedly call them across. But in
many instances lonely wonld-be pas
senger remained on the far side only
to see the car dash past him q rapid
rate and then hear some one on the
sidewalk laugh.
The rule from henceforth la that
the passenger at a transfer point must
be on the near side OF the street
Under a State law all ears must nec-
essarily stop before crossing over
other car tracks. and by stopping on
the near side at such points the mo-
tor;ncn are saved the trouble and the
time Of twice stopping. AT all other
streets the step Is made on the far
side. II seems TO be simple aud
easily understood. bat motormen and
conductors said Monday that they had
been roundly abused by scores who
had beer left standing In the street
waiting for the car behind.

HIS LIFE SAVED
BY BEING LATE
Gehardt Was to Have Sailed on
Inflated Nina, But Overstayed
Shore Leave.

NORFOLK, NA-r Feb, 2l.s--Beeause
he was i've Minutes late and could not

tug Nina, which has heen given up
as lost, with all her crew, W. q. &C.
haidt. Quarttrmaster in the United
States Navy, is lot ked zap in the brig
of the receiving ship Franklin TO
awaint punishment on the charge of
overstaying leave.
1t was reported that Gehardt told
friends that he believed the Nina an
unit vessel to make the tfill 70 Bog
ton and that he had purposeiy over
stayed his leave. He is reported TO
have said that the Nina had some
trouble With her valves. declaring that
they had not been working satisfac-
toriiy, and that she was In no condl-
ton to make sea trip.
Gehardt liz said to have notified the
comma nder OF the tug that she was
unseaworthy, but that lie had told
him to go about his business. inform
ing him that he 1.-THE commandere had
charge of the Nina and that IL there
were any repairs TO he made they
would be made in Boston.
According to officers on the Frank
lin. ii was said that Gehardt had been
10 Norfolk on shore leave the day be-
detailed as one of her crew to make
the trip to Boston, but that he fell
asleep on the ferryboat coming from
Norfolk and made several trips back
and forth across the river before he
was awakened by one of the ferry at
tendanfs. When he went aboard the
training ship the naval tug was Just
about tive minutes on her fateful Jour
ues His place had been taken by
another man from the Franklin. and
.Mhen he put in an appearance before
the officer of the deck he was ordered
locked UP In the brig.
Officers say they know nothing of
Gehardt's warning to the captain OF
the Nina that she was unseaworthy.
but Ii is affirmed by one of the pris-
oner's mates, who said that Gehardt
had told him OF il and of the reply
made by the Nina's master. When
Gehsrdt was told that the Nina had
been given up as lost, with all her
crew, ii was said that he cried like a
child, saying that he was ashamed to
have placed upon another the fate
which was intended for him.
No disposition has been made OF
Gehardt's case but IL is expected that
he will be given a light punishment.
If the statements regarding the tug
unsea " orthiness which he is alleged
to have made. are true, 1t Is probable
that an investigation will be made IN
mediately IT was said yesterday that
the Nina had been locked recently
and gone over. and 1t Is possible that
some defects may have been seen by
the sailor while the ship was up for
repairs.
