They Gave Way to Allow the Sixth Cavalry to Cross Their Tracks. President Dunlop having given notice that today the cable cars would run on schedule time, despite the parade, the peo- ple of Washington went down town this morning: curious to see how,he was going to do it. The difficulty, if there was to be any, was not expected to come from the District Commissioners. Their talked-of notice to the Washington and Georgetown Company to stop its cars during the parade today was rot even mailed to Mr. Dunlop. The only «nticipation of real trouble was from the possible clash of Col. Gordon's troopers from Fort Myer. They on this oc- casion were the United States. They-knew no north, no south, no east, no west, no cable, no trolley, no “‘hoss car,” no bobtall. If these brave cavalrymen should be or- dered to take the whole wide avenue in their movements they would be likely to do it, and unless by some miraculous inter- position of Providence the laws governing the impenetrability of matter should be suspended a clash would result between the cable cars and the horsemen. Happily, nothing of the kind happened. The cavalry formed on the north side of 6th street and the avenue, and at the proper time moved westward across 7th street. No notice was given the cars to stop. ‘The car company did not notify the cavalry to halt until the cars had passed. The “soger” boys just simply went ahead, and the cable gripman just naturally took off his grip and put on his brake. For two or three minutes Mr. Dunlop, if he had been there, would have seen the schedule suspended. The same thing happened a moment later, when the column crossed the tracks of the avenue line and proceeded along the south side of the thoroughfare. The cable cars banked up six or eight deep -on each side of the point of crossing, both on 7th street’ and the avenue, and when the troops had passed they quickly got on into schedule position. At 15th street the usval choke was avoided by the column passing south and west of the. Treasury building, and so all possible difficulty with the cars was avoided at that point. During the entire march the column kept south of the railway tracks, and seemed to have quite all the room necessary, and no acci- dents occurred. Meantime the crowds were being bowled along merrily, Arlington- wards, with a speed and capacity that soon made the streets down town look deserted. This, considering the heat and dust, was a mercy to the countless numbers of women and children and old veterans who were out for the day. The sixth cavalry, Mr. Dunlop and the people of Washington are to be congratulated on the happy, balmily peaceful outcome of the affair. . —_—_._—__ Young Catholic Club.

FINALS THIS AFTERNOON —_—_+—___. Columbia field, once well kncwn to all Washingtonians as Van Ness Park, was the Mecca of the local wheelmen today. It is located, it should be stated for the benefit of those who may never have been there, at the southwest corner of the White Lot, and is fanned by the breezes from the river. Sometimes, when the wind is in a certain direction, the breezes come lazily over the flats and are not so refreshing. But all moving air was welcome today to the warm young men in knickerbockers who bent their backs over their handle bars and literally “scorched” their way along the wretched pavement of 17th street to the old-fashioned porter’s lodge that stil) guards the entrance to the park. As early as 9 o'clock they began to arrive, young men on black, wheels, red wheels, pink wheels, yellow wheels, silver wheels, copper-colored wheels—wheels of every sort and style, except the old style high wheels. A bicycle meet today is mightily different from such an event ten years ago, or even less than that. The stature of the machines—if the word may so be used— has shrunk. No longer are the sixty-inch uprights to be seen.on the cinder track. No more are the desperate headers such a distinguishing feature of the wheelmen’s contest. The event at Columbia field today was a bicycle race meet of the new sort. It drew a large gathering of interested spectators, most of them bicyclists themselves, with all the zest and interest in the occasion that amateur sports feel. The track is rew and language of the field. It is short and stout, to be figurative once more, and consists principally of turns and banks. Owing to the shape of the lot, a long, compressed track, the best and safest for good racing, is impracticable. Workmen have been busy for some time getting the track in form smoothing the turns and reducing the dan- ger of an accident. It was feared that some over-zealous and careless wheelman might take a plunge from one of the high banks that are made necessary to pre- serve the natural argles and slopes re- quired to prevent a rider from losing his line of gravity at the turns. During the morning ihe track officials were busy getting the handicap stakes in position and putting the final touches on the surface of the track. The club house was filled with contestants, who were be- ing rubbed down by their friends, and making the final preparations for the struggle for honors. The heat was intense, and it was not the best sort of bicycle weather. Officials of the Day. The officials of the day were: George W. Cook, C. A. C., referee; Alex. Grant, C. A. C., Joseph B. McGirr, G. C. C., and Chas. A. Cabrera, C. A. C., judges; Prof. J. W. Sims, Y. M. C. A., W. E. Pierce, C. A. C., and B. T. Larcombe, A. W., timers; L. S. Wells, jr.; C. A. C., clerk of course; J. M.

For The Evening Star Medal. The first heat of the first race was run off at 9:50. This was the one-mile novice for The Evening Star gold medal. There were five riders assigned to this heat, but only three started, Geo. E. Smith, Wash- ington Road Club; R. H. Wheeler, unat- tached, and H. M. Whittaker, Baltimore Athletic Club. a The heat was won easily by Smith, with twenty yards to spare. Young Wheeler made a gallant fight for two laps, but Whittaker, who was holding his pace, pressed him on the third and passed to a Place. Wheeler spurted on the last lap and lost a place in the finals by a bare yard. Time, 2.20. The second heat was run by W. F. Fitz- hugh, unattached; Wm. P. Walker, Arl- ington Wheelmen; Robert L. Regester, Rugby Athletic Club; Richard Klester, Georgetown Cycle Club; Wm. R. Moulden, x. A., and Wm. F. Henisler, Balti- more Athletic Club. Fitzhugh led from the start, and the race was @ procession until the last lap, when Kiester rushed to the front and overtook the leader at the tape, taking first place by half a length. The first three men qual- ified fer the finals as follows: Kiester, Fitz- hugh and Regester. Time, 2.37 1-5. This concluded the preliminary heats of the one-mile novice, and gave Smith, Whit- taker, Fitzhugh, Regester and Kiester the. right to try for The Star medal in the final heat. Half-Mile Open. The next event was the half-mile open, class A, for a banquet lamp and a cycle suit. The first heat was run ‘by C. E. Wood, Washington Road Club; W. L. Eck- hardt, Young Fellows’ Cycle Club; F. A. L. Schade, Washington Road Cfab, and H. A. Rhine, Potomac Wheelmen. It wes a close bunch at the finish, with the three qualifying men almost together. Eckhardt wou in 1.12, followed by Schade and Wood, both of whom thus became eli- gible for the finals. The second heat was run by Claud Leath- erbury, unattached; Jas. 8S. Joes, Clifton A. C., and Geo. E. Smith, W. R. C. Smith won nicely, though he came near losing his head at the southeast turn on the last lap. The second place was won by Leatherbury, who was hard-pressed by Joes. The time was 1.17. This left Smith, Leatherbury, Eckhardt, Schade and Wood for the finals. 2 Quarter-Mile Open. - The third race was a quarter-mile open, class A, for a gold medal offered by the Georgetown Cycle Club, and a eycle suit. The first heat brought out Claud Leather- bury, unattached; F. A. L. Schade, W. R. C., and Chas. T. Cabrera, C. A. C. Schade won by taking the southeast turn very cleverly and so gaining several yards. He led by four yards at the finish, followed next by Leatherbury. Time, 37 1-5. The second heat was run by J. S. Joes, Clifton A. C., and W. E. Ferguson, Y. M. Cc. A. Joes won by three yards, but both men qualified, as there was no competition. Time 28 2-5. Thus the finals of this race were to be settled by a heat between Schade, Leatherbury, Jves and Ferguson. One-Mile Handicap. . There were five heats of the one-mile handicap, class A, scheduled. The first heat was run by T. W. Hutchins, D.C. C., 40 yards; Geo. E. Ball, G.C.C., 70 yards; Thos. N. Mudd, jr., A. W., 80 yards; F. W. Cissell, unattached, 10 yards, and Bayard T. Wrcnn, G. C. C., 40 yards. - Ball tcok the lead, and kept it for the first three laps, hard pressed by Mudd. Wrenn’s starter fumbled and threw him out of the race. On the last lap Mudd sprinted and overtook Ball on the stretch, winning by a length and a half. Time, 2.21. Mudd and Ball qualified for the finals. Cc. E. Wood, W.R.C., 00 yards; H. M. Whitaker, B. A.C., 80 yards; H. A. Rhine, P. W., 60 yards, and Geo. E. Smith, W. R. C., 50 yards, started in the second heat of the race. The men bunched well on the first lap, with Wood leading. He lost ground on the next lap, and Smith went to the front. Wood recovered the lead the next lap, but was displaced by Smith, who finished an easy winner by six yards, with Wood qualifying. Time, 2.20 1-5, The second heat was run by J. S. Joes, Clifton A. C., scratch; R. H. Wheeler, unat- tached, 120 yards; Wm. E. Ferguson, Y. M. c. A., 80 yards, and C. C. Charamus, H. W., 195 yards. Wheeler's long lead was soon cut down by Charamus and Ferguson, who ran nearly together. But the plucky little fellow kept with them, and the three were all in a bunch when the last lap was started. Wheeler ran a beautiful race, but lost his place by a foot. Charamus won by a length, with Ferguson second, and quali- “green,” in the ee THE OFFECIAL WEATHER MAP.

The one-mile District thampionship race came next, for The Evening News cup and the Parker, Bridget & Co.’3 gold medal. The program contemplated two heats, but there were so few starters that it was thought that it would be bétter to ride the race in the afternoor ‘in ‘one heat. Consequently the event was postponed, and it will be run by Hutchffis, D.C.C.; Pline, P.W.; Wood, W.R.G.; Cabrera, C. A.C.; Wrenn, G.C.C., and smithy W.R.C. ‘Two-Mile, Class A, Handicap. The two-mile handicap, "dass A, trial heats, were next in order.’ ‘The'first heat was run by Wrenn, G.C.C.,%0 yatds; Char- amus, B.A.C., 155 yards: Hitchitis, D.C.C., 70 yards, and Whitaker, BJA‘C, yards, and Claggett, unattached, 7) ‘yatds. Charemus and Whitaker led the first lap, and Wrenn joined them inithe lead on the second. Wrenn’s own wheel:went back on him just before the race,.and he had to ride a new and strange machine. At the first mile all the men were bunched. The men were taking things easy, and the sixth lap found them once more‘in each other's company. Four men copid:qualify, so that the race was really between .the five men to avoid being last. The fifth alone could lose. Hutchins took a long lead at the start of the ninth lap, and set a scorching pace. Wrenn’s wheel took him wandering over toward the grand stand en the tenth and last lap and put him out.of the race. Hutchins won, and the other qualifiers were Charamus, Whitaker and Claggett. Time, 5.27 1-5. The second “heat was between Jacobs, Centaur, 110 yards; Ball, G. C. C., 110 yards; R. H. Wheeler, 195 yards; Regester, R. A.'C., 150 yards; Eckhardt, ¥. F.C. C., 70 yards; Kiester, G. C. C., 145 yards; Joes, Clifton A. C., 70 yards, aifd Wood, W. R. C., 90 yards. ‘The men were fairly well bunched for the first mile, but in the seventh lap Kies- ter fell and Regester dropped out on the eighth. So all the rest qualified, as three heats were being run in one. These men finished in this order: Joes, Ball, Eckhardt, Wheeler, Wood and Jacobs. Time, 4.51 2-5. One Mile Open, Class A. ‘The one mile open race, class A, was next in the list, and it was run in two heats. The first was between Schade, W. R. C.; Wrenn, G. C. C.; and Leatherbury, unat- tached. The pdce was slow, as all the men had run in the previous races. Schade took the lead, but there was no running for three laps, and the race was loafed until the last lap. Then Schade went out like a flash, but Leatherbury pressed him on the far stretch. On the turn Leatherbury gained an advantage, but Schade pulled out by a foot, according to the official an- nouncerfent. ‘Leatherbury qualified.

THE MORTON CADETS They Put Upa Splendid Drill in Front of the Arlington. Every Movement Was Executed With Clocklike Precision—The Company Photographed. The public has now no reason to wonder why, the Morton Cadets took second prize at Memphis. Their drill in front of the Arlington last night showed the profi- ciency of the company in every move- ment, and although the drill was not as fine as that put up on the field at Mem- phis, still it demonstrated to every one’s mind the fact that the Mortons are one of the best military companies that have ever drilled here. Captain Shilling had four full fours under his command, attired in the same uniform in which they were in- spected and in which they drilled at Mem- phis, with the exception of white duck trousers in place of the regulation govern- ment trousers. Every Movement Was Good. Forty men constituted the drill team and they were marched on the space in front of the hotel at 6:20. A great deal of difficulty was experienced in getting sufficient space in which to drill, and the company was compelled to march around and force the crowd back several times in order to acquire the necessary room in which to maneuver. A short rest was given before the drill commenced, and then the order “attention” was given by Captain Shilling and the drill had begun. Company and platoon movements and everything in the school of the company except set-up exercises was gone through with. The manual was executed at open ranks, and the manner in which the boys handled their pieces was something worth seeing. The movements were in quick and double, the two maneuvers which seemed to take the fancy of the audience being company right or left from a march and company halt from double time. Both of these were done with precision and in exact cadence, and the applause was deafening after each one had been com- pleted. In the platoon movements the two Heuterants, Tralles and Robinson, showed that they knew exactly what they were doing, and, in fact, every man in the com- pany knew just what was required of him at every command, and the result was clockwork precision in everything. The firing was somewhat ragged at first, but the last volley was all that could be required. When Capt. Shilling gave the command, “lie down,” there was a general chorus of regrets, for every one knew that the white trousers would suffer from con- tact with the not-over-clean street. The company went down as one man, how- ever, and the firing in that position was ex- cellent. The. drill lasted about an hour and the boys were pretty well worn out by the heat and exertion by the time it was finished, The crowd was exceedingly large and filled the space around the Arlington Hotel to overflowing. They were very lib- eral in their applause, and showed that they thought a great deal of their trim lit- tle soldier boys. Capt. Shilling was nat- urally as cool as a.cucumber and handled his company in excellent fashion. —_—-_——_. Car Order Revoked, The order of the Commissioners direct- ing the cars of the W. and G. R. R. to cease running during the parade was re- voked yesterday, as it would have been a hardship upon the people who desi: visit Arlington. a ee INDEX TO ADVERTISEMENTS. AMUSEMENTS . ATTORNEYS .

THEN BOYD TOOK A HAND The bleachers were crowded, and many spectators occupied seats in the grand stand at National Park this morning when Umpire Keefe called “play” for the third game of the present series between Wash- ington and Pittsburg. As usual, the home team went first to bat, the battery for the Pirates being Hawley and Kinslow. Selbach, the initial batter for Washington, popped up a fly back of short, which fell safe. Joyce flied one to second, and a mo- ment later Selbach was caught napping. Hassamer hit safely, but the side was re- tired when McGuire forced him at second. Washington took the field with Hassamer at short, Boyd in right field and Varney Andergon in the box. McGuire, as usual, appeared behind the bat. Patsey Donovan waited for balls. Sten- zel hit the first ball pitched into left field, but Selbach was there. Beckley retired on a grounder tu second, Donovan taking sec- ond on the play. The latter was advanced one bag when Smith reached first on a grounder to Hassamer, which failed to reach first in time. In trying to catch Smith in stealing second Hassamer failed to hold the ball and Donovan crossed the plate. Bierbauer promptly pushed a double to left center, and Smith walked home with the second run. Clingman took first on balls, and the next batter, Cross, singled to left, Blerbauer scoring, Clingman tak- ing third and Cross second in the play. Kinslow and the side was retired, Ander- son to Cartwright. Score, Washington, Pittsburg, 8. Stalwart Ed Cartwright opened the sec- ond inning by popping up a little fly to third, which Clingman misjudged, and Cartwright was safe, walking to second a moment later, when Boyd was given four balls. Both were advanced on Crooks’ neat sacrifice. Abbey flied out and Cartwright scored the first run for Washington. An- derson made the third out by flying to Beckley. Hawley hit the first ball pitched for a beautiful single to right, and-easily reached second when Boyd failed to stop the sphere. Joyce erred on an easy one from Donovan’ bat, and Hawley was on third and Patsey at first with nobody out. Stenzel hit to second, and succeeded in getting himself doubled with Donovan, but Hawley scored on the play. Score: Washington, 1; Pitts- burg, 4. Opened With a Double. With a scratch two-base hit back of first Selbach opened the third inning. Joyce ad- vanced him by sacrificing. Hassamer kept up the good work with a long fly into Sten- zel’s outstretched paws, permitting Selbach to score. McGuire was hit and Cartwright sent a corking single to center. Boyd forced Cartwright at second and three men were out. For Pittsburg, Smith went out, Crooks to Cartwright, but Bierbauer trotted to first on a clean single to left, and four balls re- warded Clingman for patient waiting. Cross hit to short and Clingman was de- clared out on a close decision at second, Bierbauer taking third and Cross soon after stealing second. Tom Kinslow ended the precarious state of affairs by driving the ball into Joyce’s hands. Score, Wash- ington, 2; Pittsburg, 4. Joyce’s Home Run. Innirg number four was Inaugurated by Jack Crooks flying out to Donovan. Abbey did ditto tc Smith, but Anderson improved in such tactics by singling to center, and next Selbach took first on balls. With two men on bases, Joyce occasioned a healthy substitute for pandemonium by scoring three runs and putting Washington in the lead with a home-run hit into the right field bleachers. Hassamer shoved the ball to Beckley and thereby retired the side. Hawley managed to get in a base hit at the opening of the inning for Pittsburg and he reached second and Donovan first on the latter's drive to Hassamer, which Bill threw poorly to first. Stenzel fouled out, but Beckley placed single to right, on which Hawley scored. Smith also singled aud Donovan reached home. Bierbauer reached first and Beckiey scored on Hassa- mer’s error of a batted ball. Clingman struck out and Cross got four balls, but Kinslow left the three men on bases by ‘ing out to short. Score: Washington, 5; ittsburg, 7. \ For Washington, in the fifth inning, Mc- Guire went out on a high fly to right, and Cartwright struck three times without re- sult. Boyd made three out—second to first. Another single was the work of Hawley, but he and Donovan resumed seats on the bench when the latier sent a little one to Crooks, the double play being prettily ex- ecuted. Stenzel went to first on balls, and took third on Buckley’s single to right. The bases were filled when Smith received four bad balls, but no runs reguited, for Bierbauer went out to Selbach. Score: Washington, 5; Pittsburg, 7. Anderson Surprised People. The next inning vas opened by Crooks with a single to short, but Jack was forced at second by Abbey. Anderson surprised the spectators by making a two-base hit to left, putting Abbey on third. Selbach scored Abbey by sacrificing to Beckley, and Anderson tied the score, when Cross fum- bled Joyce’s grounder. Bill went out in an endeavor to steal second. In Pittsburg’s half Clingman got first on balls and Cross reached the initial bag on Hassamer’s error. Kinslow hit to Joyce, who threw to the plate to catch Clingmar, but McGuire failed to hold the ball, and the Pirate tallied. Hawley forced Kinslow at second, a double play being but narrowly averted. Cross scored on Donovan's scratch hit, which struck Anderson’s shoe and rolled away. Hassamer again erred, this time on Stenzel’s little bounder, and the bases were filled. Hawley crossed the plate on Beckley’s sacrifice to far right,and then Crooks created great enthusiasm by retiring the side with a probably unprece- dented circus catch of a ball from Smith’s wagon tongue. Score: Washington, 7; Pitts- burg, 10. Hassamer led off in the seventh with a single to left, but he was doubled with McGuire when Jim hit to third. Cart- wright flied out to center. Boyd Goes to Short. Washington took the field in the seventh with Boyd at short and Hassamer in his accustomed place at right field. Bierbauer was hit by the ball, so the umpire de- cided, and went to second on Clingman’s sacrifice. Cross gtruck ovft and Kinslow filed out to Abbey. Score: Washington, 7; Pittsburg, 10. Washington Scores Seven. Boyd opened up the eighth with a single to center, and Crooks followed with a similar hit to left, Boyd going to third and Crooks to second on the throw-in. Abbey received the next pitched full in the right side and was knocked prostrate. He soon recovered, however, and the bases were filled with nobody out. Anderson hit to third, forcing Boyd at the plate, but Selbach was equal to the occa- sion, and hit to center, scoring Crooks and Abbey. Joyce was also in the game, he attesting that fact with a double to right, in which Anderson crossed the rubber with the tying run. Hassamer redeemed his poor work at short by a clean hit to center and two more runs were jotted down in favor of the Schmelzites. To keep up with the procession McGuire sent a corker to left, on which Hassamer went to third. McGuire was caught between first and sec- ond, but clever base running prevented a put out. Mr. Cartwright next advanced to the bat and pushed the sphere past the pitcher and far into center field, Hassa- mer and McGuire going across the plate. A double play on Boyd and Cartwright finally retired the side, much to the relief of Pitcher Hawley. Mercer Goes in. Win Mercer relieved Anderson in the box for Washington at the opening of Pittsburg’s -half of the eighth. Hawley got to first on being touched by a pitched ball, FINANCIAL.
