THE TURF. FOLLERTOX, OCCIDENT, AND SAM PURDY. Special Dspatch to The Chicaga Tridune. Sax Fuascisco, Nov. 2L—No sporting-event which has over occurred at the Pacific Coast has created more oxcitement beforehand, or resulted finally in 88 great & disappointment. 28 tlfe trotting race of to-day, in which the Californis horse Occident lost to Fullerton, the well-known Eastern trotter, in tho great $6,000 ace. Oc- cident on one or tWo previous mlom gave promise of great speed, and did trot amaz- ingly fast in private trials, but when matched in & public race did not pan out €0 well. The horse is excitable and Dervous, and the crowd of peopls, swaving and ¢houting, rendered Lim more so. The conso- quence was he would broak badly: but in his Jast race, in the hauds of Budd Doble, he achieved a brilliant record, having Atml!ad three hoats squarcly, without @ break, in 2:19, 2:18, and 2:027¢. Ho is owned by Gov. Stanford, who Joaned him to Budd Doble to win all he could With him, andit was hoped by Pacific coasters that in the hands of 8o experienced a horseman the California wonder would ignore all faults zod show his mettle to be superior to that of any alien equine. How well these expectations were realized will be found in the report of the race. Early in the day the weather promised well for the race, and when the time of the l?vent drew near the race grounds were crowded with specta- tors, prominent among whom we noticed a large number of Esstern turf-men, who DBACKED FULLERTGN with a pertinacity worthy of the cause. At the first pools Fullerton sold first at small odd.! over Occident, Sam Purdy third. As the_ time of starting drewnear, hosts of people lr;lur],Lmd took advantage of the elevated ground on Lone ngunuin L‘:flgfihs Golden-Gate Park =nd ontside giounds to secure a good view of the race. The advent of local investora om the ground had the. effect of _elevating ~Occident stock, which, at half-past 1 o'clock, sold even, with Fullerton st $100, Sam Purdy selling at 850. Some povl-selling was made with Occi- dent, 350 ; Fullerton, $300; Purdy, $150 ; but no great amount of money was placed at theso rates. Occldent was first on the track, and, in exercising, ho received the hearty applause of the spectators, who looked mpon him ss the borse of the day. THE BACE - In thoe first hest positions were taken as fol- Jows: Pardy, pole; Occident, second; Fuller- ton, third ; with Budd Doble’ driviug Occident, 0. A. Hickock driving Fullerton, and McClellan holding the lines over Purdy. Juat before the etart tho pools sold as_follows: Occident, $260; Fullertoh, $250; Purdy, $45. At half-past 2 o'clock the horses were called for the race Shoa it waa ovident tbat Occident, who bad been acting badly_sll the afiernoon was still nervous aud requiring all the ekill and attention of the driver who had him in charge. The re- sul: of the heat justitied the prognostications of tho moro knowing Lorsemen present, Fuller- ton winning, with Purdy eecond, and Occident & very bad third, the time of the wimnner being Deing 2:2034. I¢ was the opinion of many who witnossed the race that Occident was dis- fanced, and & claim to that effect was made, but the judges decided to the con- trary, This decision raised the hopes of Occident’s backers, which had slmost subsided when toe resnlt of the first heat was being dis- cussed, but ceused much dissatisfaction smong the friends of Fullerton and Sam Purdy, who claimed that Occident was four lengtbs behind the distance-flag, and should have been ruled out accordingly. A ) An unfortunate incident occurred in the start for the second heat, which resulted in the fining 1n £25 of Hickok, the owner of Fullerton, for using impertinent lingusge to the judges. These deciined to allow Hicock to water his horse on the track, an action which the driver chose to characterize as the putiing on of too many_ airs, snd bencs the fine. The horses scored eight times witbout makiog & start, and, hen they did get off, Occident broke badly just fter getting the word, and behaved badly during the remainder of tho heat, which was *taken by Fallerton in 2:20%{, Purdy second, and Occident Beventy-five yards behind, ‘At 4:30 o'clock the horses were called ont for the third heat, when Fullerton was selling at £600 Lo $250 on the field. There was' nothing especially interesting in this beat but the result. which showed Fullerton first in 2:20%, and, con- sequently, winner of the race. The following is a summary of the race: SUMMARY, Bay DrsTricT COURCE, SaN FRANCISCO, Cal, Nov, 21, 1674.—Trotting for a puree of £,000, of which firt ‘Thorse received $3,500, second, $1,500, and third, $1,000; mile beats, best e in fiva, in barness, 111 222 - .3 me—2:20, 33 2 "i_i‘ 5 THE GREAT FOUR-MILE HEATRACE. "~ £ The following extracts from the Chronicle's Tepors of the great four-mile heat race ran in San Francisco on the 1ith inst. are interesting: The four-mile-and-repeat race yesterdsy was run under the most suspicious circumstances., No turf event had ever aroused tho people of this coast 10 80 high a pitch of excitement. The fame of the noted fiyers, the hoayy sums staked on the result, the almost universal hope that California, in Thad Stevens, would vindicate her claim to the possession of the fastest T3cer on the American continent, all havo contributed 0 heighten the interest in tho contest. A fairer day conld not be wished for than that which opened yester- day morning. . A genial sun, a soft and balmy atmos- Phere, and a sky of virgin azure blessed the occasion, At least 30,000 people, Tepresenting all conditions of . life, added's glow of animation to the inspiring scenc.

As the time for the Tace drew near, the excitement ose to fever height. The voices of the thousands of men hotly difcussing the merits of the different horses mingled in one loud uproar, like an angry surf break- ing on a rockbound shore, 'The scens waa omo to bo long remembered. As far s the eyo could rescha denso swarm of humanity challenged attention, The Qquarter-stretch was packed with s solid mass of men. The grand stands were thronged with ladies and thetr escorts. ‘The balcontes of the hotel and club-houss were Alled with a select circle of Iadies and gentlemen more favored than the rest.

LAME BEFORE THE BACE, A few minutes before 2 o'clock the riders wero callea into tho stand #nd weighed. Tho horses sp- on the 3lr, Simpson’s horse Hockhock- ing has had sore heel, and split hoof for some time, The hoof was_pisted, and the soro was not thought to of any consequence, In tho transfer from the Ocean View —Course, where he was {n training, to the Bay District Course, on the evening before the racs, the strain upon the leg caused the sore to break out afresb. Yesterday be waa quite Iame, and his owner, hefore the horses wero called, permission to_withdraw the horse from the race, The snimal wns bronght ot for the inpec- tion of the judges. He limped considerably, but his owner concluded fo let him go in the race, although Dis foot was srained with blood which had cozed the sore, The Liorse Hubbard did not appear on tho track, Ever since his arrival here last fall ho has bad weak leg, 1t was hoped that ho would be sufficiently Tecoyered from this defect before the race to enablo him to participate in tno contest. But his condition would not warrant it, and permission was granted for his withdrawal. This was a source of disappointment. He was known to be & first-class horse, having some splendid performances in tho Kast recorded in his favor, among them the best 2X-mile dash on record, and bis e; ‘participation in the race invested if with additional interest. THE HOBSES OX THE TRACK. The horses appeared on the track about half-pust 1 o'clock, and, efter belng walked around for some time, were mounted by stable-boys and cantered slowly around the track to Limber their joints and set their blood fa motion proparatory to the hard work. Thoy were all blanketed, and nothing conld be seen of them but their noses and lmbs, It was noticed that the Eastern mare, Eatle Pease, was moving very nimbly and appeared £o be in good spirits and eager for tha contest. Thad Stovens walked about with his head down and the air of a staid and venerable cow. The eyes of the multitude followed him, and it was evident that, while tho confidence of the majority rested on tho mare, the sympathies of all were with the gallant old horee, Joe Daniels was also the object of closo scru- tiny on sccount of the reports in circulation regard- ing his lameness and his kmown ability when in good condition, He manifested no evidence of lomeness, snd sppeared 8t to run for the fate of s nation. At 25 minutes paat 2 o'clock the command was given by the judges for the drivers to ‘mount their horsos for the first heat. As tho horses were stripped for the contest thoy were eagerly scannod by theeyes of thousands of practical horsemen in order to gather an ides of their condition. The mare, Eatie Poase, peeled like a ripe banana, and was greatly ‘sdmired for the symmetrical beauty of her form, Her coat shone like polished_mabogany, and her condition was considered as near perfection 23 it is possible to orders horse. Thad Stovens also stripped well. and was thought £0 b in pretty good form. The rider of Pease was the first to mount. Tho mare galloped with him gayly back along; the home stretch while the others wero getting ready for ihe start, Stevens galloped slowly along the stretch, and, returning, passed the stand on a trot, taking the tap of his rider’s whip in a spirit of sedate and _Christian meeknese, The other Torses all appeared to be in excellent condition, THE LAST MILE OF THE LAST HEAT. Daniels was making s terrifio stroggle for the heat and it was evident tuat the contest between him an Eatie in this mile would be s desperats one. Xiis pace was an_amazing one, and he fairly outfooted the maro in the first quarter, collaring and passing her. At the quarter-pole he was & short leagth ahesd of Peass, Henry being » length behina her, and Thad and the remaining two_practically out of the race, the old horse being » bad fourth, and Hocking lsst. The mare was urged on by her Jockey, and, having a little more speed left, succeeded in catching Jos befors Treaching the half, Heary being well up. The first two passed the half mile neck and neck, the others being 40 uzds behund. _Along the backsifetcn Eatle bid & ittle the advantage of the struggls, but Joo was strain- ing every nerve and gaining slowly, with an_excellent prospect of beating the mare down the stretch on so- count of his muscular power. But just at the entrance to tho homestretch he met with an_accident, which brought him the to made 3 injury of s tenden, s stondetill, H strugggle, Was oo the mare under the wire, winner of the heat snd race by four lengths, Hardwood being third, and Stovens fourth, about twelve lengths behind the “Tocking and Daniela were both declared dis- tanced. Time of heat, 7:36¥. The judges sunounced the result of the race aa above and declared the ssward of money, constituting the $25,000 purse, aa follows : Eatie Pease gets first moey, §5,000 ; Henry, second ‘money, $5.000 ; Hardwood, third monoy, $4,000; Thad Stevens, fourth money. $3.000.

Joo did mot seem to sufler much pain, and took indly to his feed. Joe has had a weak leg since his race of last year; his owner had littla confi- dence in his ability to win. ‘Thad Stavens showed some slight favoring of one of 185 fore legs, but otherwize scomed tolerably fresh. Henry Walsh, bis trainer, bad no confidence In'the old favorite's wigning ; says his fore leg waa 50 bad that hewssafrald forun him in his training at anything more than a canter; had to get along eusily wiih hun and save him as nuch 88 possible, in order o start him at all in the race. : Hockhocking bas » set of lame feot about the heels, but nothing particularly serious. “Alpha was ot visited, but her condition sas report- ed ta be unfavorablo to running moro long races. FINANCIAL RESULT OF THE RACES. The result of this Tace has proved a great success to the Pactfic Jockey Club. There wara eight entries at 10 per cent on the purse of $25,000, This smounts to $19:000, allowing $1,000 reduction on Eatlo Poase for making the trip out here. Estimating those who paid at the gate ot omly 15,000, would amount to $32,000. The grand stands were fall, sud probably contained about 8000 in all, This gives about 7,500, There was perlizps 1,000 people on the temporary siand erocted by the Club, 2t 50 cents esch, £500.

Yesterday afternoon a TRISUNE reporter, wish- ing to bs enlightened npon base-ball matters for | 1875, called upon and had a conversation with Jimmie Wood, the macager of the Chicago nine. The shortest way of enlightening the public with regard to noxt year's base-ball prospects is to ro- produce the conversation which occurred, as fol- lows: Roporter—I see, Mr. Wood, in the Clipper of to-day, that Force is counted in among the Ath- letic players of nex: year. Jimmie Wood—That is & mistake. Force will undoubtedly come to Chicago. He left here perfectly satisfied, and on the evening of his leaving was offered the saloons on the grounds with Zettlein. -- Reporter—How about Burdock ? Jimmie Wood—Well, Bardock signed with four clubs for 1875. He signed with Chicago in August, to the effect that he wonld sign a contract at the end of the season, and it was agreed that, in case mo contract was forwarded to him, tne in- strument would be binding for noxt year. He next signed.with the Mutuals, then with the Hartfords, and finally with the Athletics, He bas concluded to play with the Hartfords, from which Club he 18 draw- ing & salary, but Cammeyer, manager of the Mutual Club, knowing that the Chicago contract is prior to all other domands, ingists that Bur- dock fulfils his contract with the Chicagos or Mutnals. Inasmuch as the Chicago Club pays s stated salory and the Mutual does not, being & co-operative nine, Burdock will come to Chicago. It he fails to do this, Cammeyer will prefer charges against him on account of his signing with the Matuals before the season closed. The Hartfords and Athletics bave no claim om him whatever, He must either play with the Mutuals or Chicagos. It don't matter much to the Chicagos, however. whether he comes or not, as his absencs would not affect the nine to any extent, the Club having engaged Warren White for the position of third base,at which he is the equal, if not the superior, of Burdock. Reporter—How about Peters? Jimmie Wood—Wa were interviewed last week by onoe of the Directots of the St. Louis Club as to whether we would allow Peters togo to St. Louis. Ve decided at once that Peters must lay in_Chicazo, which was satisfactory to St. ioniu, but if Burdock finally cowes to Chicago we will lot Peters go to 8t. Louis. THE NEW CHICAGO NINE. Raporter—Wno are and what is the goneral character of the Chicago nine for 18757 Jimmie Wood—The Chicago nine for the com- ing season has been selected a8 mzch for moral standing as for vlaying skill, and next year we will be able to boast a nine equal to that of Bos- ton in the matter of square dealing. Our nine will bo aa follows: Richard Higham and Scott Hastings, catchers; George Zettlein, pitcher; James Devlin and Joln Glenn, first base; J. Peters and G. Keerl, second base; D. Force, short stop; W. White, third base; P. Hines, left field; Bielaskie, centre field; one of the catchers occupying the position of right field. We have engaged two players for each important ‘position, thus being prepared for any emergency in case of sickness or accident. Reporter—What are you going to do for a change c{‘Eltchur next year ? Jimmie Wood—Devlin, who is1n charge of the bail grounds this winter, is practicing daily the newstyleof pitching—the underhand throwing— at which be alreadv displays great proficiency. and, should the 6tyle not boruled out by the Asso- ciation, he will be superior to any next season, - and will prove a valuable change for Zettlein, as the latter can play first baso in_ first-class style when Devlin is called upon to pitch. THE EASTERY CLUDA. Reporter—What do you kuow about the organ- ization of clubs East? mmie Wood—None of the Esstern clubs bave organized yet except the Boston and Hart- ford clubs, whose organization has alresdy been made known. The meeting of the Judiciary Committee will not take place nntil all the clubs Bavo completed thelr organizstion, sa they are aware that there will be man: cult dispates to settle which will require their full attention, and it will be necessary that all this business be done at one meeting. This meeting will be held at either New York or Philadelphia—probably at the latter place. " Reporter—What is the prospect for the Phila~ delphia Clab ? Jimmie Wood—In all probability the Philadel- phia Club will disband. as the new Centennial Club is organizing, nnd members of the Phila- delphia Club are joining it. There will not be enough first-class plyers to fill both nines. THI DISNISSED MEN. Roporter—How about the players who were in the Chicago nine of 1874, mg who will not bein the Chicago nine of 1875 ? Jimmie Wood—Cuthbert will play left field for 8t. Lonis, He left last Monday for that place, where, backed by a local capitalist, he embarks in the cigar business. Meyerlo has signed with the Philadelphia Club, but if thoy disband, he witl probably go with the Contennials if they will bave bim. Itis rumored that he has married a Chicago girl. who it ia to be hoped will improve his playing. Treacy as yet has no eogagement, and it is very doubtful whetber he will be able to obtain one. He is at present io the city, but intends leaving for the East shortly. He haa been seeking an engagement with tbe Spring- field nine, aud if he fails in this he will come to Chicago_and go into business. Malone is at present in Philadelphis. He will probably catch next season for either the Athletics, the Phila- delphiss, or the Centennials; but ho bLas no engagement as yet. I think he will settle down with the Athletics, $ WESTERN NINES. i Rflgoflar—“‘hlt new nines are there out West ere Jimmie Wood—The Keokuk nine have orgau- ized, and must be coneidered first-clags. They have entered for the championship of 1875, and bave engaged the following plavers: Soyder, Jato of Paltimores, catcher; Al Pratt, formerly pitcher of the Clevelands, pitcher; Joe Sim- mius, formerly of Chicago, or Lapham, first base; DMiller, socond base; Goldsmith, third base: Brannock, short stop; Riley, Golden, aud their present left fieldor, Golden and Bran- nock will act as chauge pitchers. Ile’puner—WhM 18 Springfield to do next sea- son ? Jimmie Wood—The Springfield nine is_being organized by Bob Addy, who plaved with the Hartfords last season. They will organize & strong pine. Reporter—I suppose you are quite confident that you have selected & good nine for Chicago? BPALDING'S OPINION. Jimmie Wood—Well, Spalding, of the Bos- tons, was in Chicago last Thursday. and called upon me. He posted me on baso ball matters down East, and when hosaw our organization he congratulated me on the class of men we had secured for the coming scason. He eaid that the game was fast becoming in America what cricket is in England,—the gentleman’s game. Ho know that Chicago had alwaya boasted of haviag the roughest team in the country, and he was pleased to see that we had eliminated that clement from ovr 1875 team. He eawn o reason why Chicago should not be successful in the chsmpionship next year, inatead of Boston, which bhad been successful for thres geum runniog. The opinion was gaining ground that s relisble man was preferable to a brilliznt man, snd the clubs were inclined to medium players with good habits 23 men who could accompiish more in a year's work than the showy but perhaps dissi- ‘pated players. Reporter—When will the new Chicago Club begin work? Jimmie Wood—About the middle of March the Chicago nine will go to New Orleaus to practice, a8 they did in 1870 and 1871, which they then found to be of grest benefit. On their way home they will probably stop at 8t. Louis and capture two or three games from their elub, which will n}:_vn:u be 80 much towards the 1875 champion- ship. THE ST. LOUIS CLUB. The 8t. Louis club was formed about two months_since. Its capital stock, $20,000 (one- Balf paid up) is in the hands of & few young men of means in that city, patrons of the game. The officers are: President. J. P. C. Lucas; Vice-President, W. C. Bteiger; Secretary, Charles A. Fowle; Treasurer, 8. P. Smith} Manager, 8. M. Griffin, late of Philadelphia. Tiffin, who receives $2,000 & year for his services, has for the past six weeks been in the East securing players. The engagements wera sll signed last week, and to-day the names o the players are made public in Bt, Louis an Chicago. The following 15 the Iist furnizhed to Tue Inmuse by one of the officers of the club: Catcher—Miller, Easton, Pa, Pitcher—Brady, Easton. Pa. Short-Stop—Pearce, Atlantic, First Basemsn—Deblman. Atlsntie, Becond Baseman—Battin, Athletic, Third Baseman—Fleet, Atisotic, Right Flelder—Pike, Hartford, Centre Fielder—McMullin, Athletic. Left Fielder—Cuthbert, Chicago. Subetitute—Waite, Easton, Pa. A private telegram from another source— which, however, i not 8o authoritative—states that MesMullin will not join the nine, but that Waite plays right and Pike centre, the substituto being Sweasy. Eitber Brady or Miller, it has not yet been decided which, will Captain the nine, which will be rather a set-back to ** Cuthy.”" The pay-roll 18 between $16,000 and $17.000 & year, salarics ranging from §1,200 to §1,500 The men receive half their ealary monthly, the rest is paid at the close of tho season,—thus fording a guarantee against desertion. The uniform of the nine has not yet been decided upon. - eflm men meet at St. Louis on the 1st of Janu- ary, 1875, and will go of once into winter train- iog, on the Boston principle, at the Missonri Gymasasium on St. Charlesstreet. It is expected that the new grounds, negotiations for which are proceeding, will be insugurated with a game with the Chicago Club, after which the 8t. Louis Club will set out on its first Eastern tour. The new grounds will, it is said, be very near the city (a deaideratum the present grounds lack), and very ample both for the piayers aud the specta- tors. During the past season, at some of the games played there by visiting clubs with the ‘Empires and Red Stockings and between these two clubs, particolarly on Sunday (which, in 8t Louis a8 in New Orleans, is by no means & dies non on the diamond field), there have been pres- ant from 8,000 to 12,000 spectators. Inzsmuch 24 this is the first professional nino St. Louis has placed in the arcna, and the city is in its turn at Tever heat on the supjoct of base ball, much as Ciocinnati and Chicago have been in their day, it is safe to expect that thero will be loud shouting and big monay at the gate all throngh the sum- mer. The 8t. Louis people crow-loudly over their team, and, though they do not absolutely prom- ise to bring home tho whip-pennant, they figure on & place well mp at the head of the list. On paper, it must be admitted, they have a very strong mine, even without AcMullen. It he plays, with Cuthbert and Pike, there is & rattling outfield, while *Bad Dickey” Pearce at short 18 a vetoran smg)orted by at least two strong base- players in Dehiman, Battin, and Fleot. The ‘pitcher and catcher havo the advantage of being acquainted with each other's play. and have dono good service during the pasitwo yearsin the Easstern club. THE ATHLELICS. The Tressurer’s report of the Athletic Club -showa receipts of last year amounting to $25,- 900.50, the principal items being: Kent from Philadelphia Base-ball Club, $1,090; sale of mem-~ bers®_ tickets, 3,810; receipts from games in the United States, £19.000 ; receipts from games in Europe, £1,800. Tbe expenditures for the year amountod to 325,055.01, the principal items beiug: Salaries to players, $13,937; tr veling expenses in Europe, $3,096; ground and inci- dental oxgenses, 3,193. The balance in the treasury at the close of the year was $875.98, a financial result upon which the Club must be cougratulated. ——— BILLIARDS. THE PROPOSED TOURNAMENT. It must be confessed that the present pros— pects for an exhibition in Chicago of the brilliant billiards which have just been enjoyed by ad- mirers of the game in New York are not as favor- able as they ought to be. Strenuous efforta are ‘being made by Tom Foley snd our other promi- pent billiard-promoters to have a tournament come off hers which will biing before the public the most prominent three-ball players in the countrs, but they are forced to acknowledge that the matches already made in which Cyrille Dion and Vigneaux and Carnier aud Rudolph are re- spectively the contestants, must necessarily postpene for an indefinito time the appearance in a tournament of the principal plsyers. The fact that our sole reliable billiardist, George 8losson, is_still willing to play Joseph Dion a game of French caroms, 500 or 600 points, for £500, holds out s ray of hope that an ivteresting billiard event may yet occur in Chicago before the arrival of the new year, but it is more than likely that Joe is too well pleased with the record he made in the tournament to care to nsk it in a match with a player like Slos- son, whose poesibilities are of a nature to make the oldest of the veterans consider before they cross cues with him. It is now many long months since the admirers of billiards in Chicago had the pleasure of watching a professional con- test, aud those who look after such things ehould exert themselves to the utmost in the matter. e CRICKET. THE ST. LOUIS CBICKETERS. In & recent letter from Bt. Louis, Tz Tam- UNE's correspondent’ says:- * Along with the formation of s professional base-ball club there is a general revival of interest in sporting mat- ters. Both the St. Louis and St. George Crickot Clubs, composed of young Enghshmon living in 8t. Louis, bave commenced to reorganize. They propose to put in the fiold next season two elovens containing the best ericket materal in St. Louis, and will train and practice regularly from early in the season. Both clubs are ar- fl%l&g for tours through Canada aod the —e CEESS. . THE FOLLOWING GENTLEMEY, all of Philadelphia, have been appointed an Executive Committee of the American Chess Association: J.
