AT EXPENSE or RIDERS

NEW YORK. Dec. 1.-the riders
that participated In the recent six
day cycle race III Madison SQuare Gar
den were paid off yesterday at the
Hotel Bartholdi. There was tho usual

than the riders had expected
In previous races the man rode for
specified prizes and in addition were
paid bonuses from the promoters. This
year the race was run on the percent
age basis. the agreement being that
tho riders receive 80 per cent. OF the
first $4,000 gross receipts and s5 per
cent of any amount after that. The
gross receipts totaled approximately
$4,000 and OF this amount the riders
share equalled $19.760. When the
bonuses were taken out the money to
be distributed as prizes reached about
$2.509. According to the riders, the
first team this year received q prize
of $500; second. $3.50: third, $412, and
fourth. $3.50. The amounts for these
places last year wore 1880, $1,000,
