Ave. Entries Announced for the Washing- ‘ton Club Races. : INTERESTING EVENTS FOR SATORDAY Men Named Who Will Ride in Monday’s Road Race ON THE CONDUIT ROAD ‘The annual fall race meet of the Wash- ington Road Club, which will be held Sat- urday afternoon on the track of the Co- lumbia Athletic Club, at Van Ness Park, corner of 17th and C streets, has aroused considerable interest among the local wheeling fraternity. It promises to be the meet of the year, and in point of interest will surpass the races held last Decora- tion day, under the auspices of the Co- lumbia Athletic Club on the same track. As originally contemplated, eight races were on the program, but through force of circumstances the number has been re- duced by two, leaving six races, in which the competition promises to be extremely hot. One of the races lopped off the pro- gram was a mile handicap in class B. There was only one entry in this and that was made by C. E. Gause, the well-known amateur racer, who won the Higham road race last year of twenty miles m 59:36, taking two bicycles, which were offered for first prize and time prize, It is pos- sible that a paced mile against the track record of class B will be run off, pro- vided enough men can be found willing to enter. The class B track record is 2.16. Another race which was taken off the Program was a mile team race from dif- ferent clubs in the city, four men repre- senting each organization.: The Wash- ington Road Club had a team to enter the race, but the other clubs did not respond. Such a race would have been of more than ordinary interest, though owing to the nar- Towness of the track it would have been a dangerous undertaking. The Races and Entries.

This work falls upon Mr. Robertson, who is the official handicapper for the League of American Wheelmen in the city, and as the races are held under the rules of the L. A. W., it becomes his duty to arrange the matter. The programs for the event will be printed tomorrow and ccntain the distances, but they will not be distributed until the evening of the race. The Twenty-Mile Road Race. The twenty-mile road race, which will be held Monday evering at 3 o’clock, on the Conduit road, under the auspices of the Dupont Cycle Club, will have among the participants some of the speediest riders from this city and from. Ba:timore. Tne race will be held over the course used for such distance, the start being at the water- ing tank at the lower reservoir, and run- ning to the Anglers’ Club house, at the forks of the road above Cabin John bridge, and return. Claude Leatherbury, the young Balti- morean who made such a splendid showing in the class B races at Asbury Park this summer, defeating a number of the racing cracks of the country, is listed for the race. Cc. E. Gause, the winner of the Higham road race, is another starter. He holds the record for the course by covering it in four secends less than one hour. Fred. Sims is another of the racers, and he has a record of making ten-miles in a fraction over ten minutes. J. J. Fister, the man who twice held the American twenty-four-hour road record, is another. He was in the Higham road race, and covered the course in 53.37, er one second behind Gause. Bayard T. Wrenn, the winner of the twenty-mile race held last August under the auspices of the Washington Road Club, has also entered. is record is 1.01.10. i ‘The handicapping- will be done by Mr. William Jose of the Washington Road Club, and the entries were turned over to him this morning for action. Mr. Robertson, the official handicapper for the District, has entered in the race, and that fact bars him from performing the duties of his office.

Adherents of the University of Pennsyl- vanja are expecting, within a short time, a challenge from Yale to compete on the gridiron. Yale defeated Dartmouth at New Haven yesterday afternoon in a well-fought game by 26 to 0. The University of Pennsylvania foot ball eleven yesterday defeated the Carlisle In- dian School by a score of 36 to 0. Brooke had the ligaments of his left shoulder torn, and will be unable to play for several ks. “Slarvard defeated Williams by 32 to noth- "Fhe “Tigers” defeated the Princeton Seminary team yesterday afternoon by the score of 10 to 4 in the most exciting game played at Princeton this year. Why the Baltimores Won. Speaking of the work of the Orioles, Glea- son says the team landed at the head of the league race simply because they played the game of base ball as it should be played. Said he: “The team was given instructions to sacrifice when the advancerhent of a run- ner meant something, and we all acted un- der instructions. We didn’t have a record player on the team, and that’s why we won.” Badly Hurt at Foot Ball. In the second half of a game of foot ball on the Berkeley Oval, New York, yesterday between the Berkeley School team and the Betts Academy eleven of Stamford, Conn, Frederick Mynderse, the captain of the visit- ing team, fell or was thrown in a rush and very badly injured. He is now in Fordham Hospital, where at a late hour last right he was under the influence of opiates. If there are no internal injuries he may re- cover. El Paso After the Fight.

LONDON, October 17.-The Times this morning declares in an editorial that no change has occurred in the Venezuelan question sufficing to bring it within the scope of the Monroe doctrine. “It Is beg- ging the question,” says the Times, “to as- sume that the British claim fs for fresh territory. The British case rests wholly up- on the vindication of our original right. The British contention is that as British Guiana becomes Brliish by right of con- quest from the Dutch, the British territory extends over the whole area possessed by Holland. Every year adds to the value of & settlement in the colony within the Schomburgh line. It is no longer possible to admit any question of a curtailment of British jurisdiction beyond that line. We are now willing to submit the frontier ques- tion to arbitration, but a few years hence it may be equally impossible to admit such a question anywhere within the limits which we belleve to be rightfully ours. “It is Inevitable that a note such as the United States ambassador, Mr. Bayard, presented to the Marquis of Salisbury on this question some weeks ago should be drawn almost exclusively from Venezuelan forces. It, therefore, requires the fullest consideration before replying. The tolera- tion which a strong power is bound to dis- lay in dealing with weaker neighbors must Rave its limit, and, as far as American rep- resentations may assist in inducing a set- tlement without recourse to unfriendly measures, they will not, we imagine, be un- welcome.” The article which the Times has published on the Venezuelan question is believed to have been directly inspired by the ae foreign office and is underst: to accurate- ly represent the attitude of the Marquis of Salisbury in the matter. It conlirms the Associated Press dispatches on the subject throughout. The American note in regard to the Venezuelan dispute was presented as far back as August last. ‘The Schemburzh line, to which reference is made in the Times’ editorial, was run in 1840 by an English commissioner named Sir Robert Schomburgh, who was sent to Venezuela for the purpose, but without the knowledge or concurrence of Venezuela. The territory included in the se-called Schomburgh line comprises a great part of the territory in dispute between Great Britain and Venezuela. The representative of the Associated Press in this city has obtained from the best source the following statement as to the state of the Venezuelan question: The United States ambassador, the Hon. Thomas F. Bayard, presented @ long note to the Marquis of Salisbury on the Ven- ezuelan question some weeks ago, stating at length the views of the United States government and the rules and policy by which they guided such questions arising between an European government and an American republic. Up to the present no reply has been given, and since it advances a doctrine of such great Importance and wide application, the matter will engage the serious attention of the British government for some time. a Improvements at Hot Springs. Capt. Robert Stevens, quartermaster, United States army, in charge of the Hot Springs reservation, in his annual report to the Secretary of the Interior, says that the work of improvement which will make Hot Springs a great health resort has veen progressing very favorably during the year. It is becoming more generally established, he says, that the curative fesources of the Arkangas mineral waters are not confined to its hot water springs. Cold water springs hardly less remarkable in their medicinal properties are found in belt for miles arcund through the valleys and mountains of the Ozark range. A total of $381,900 is estimated to complete the im- provements projected at the Hot Springs reservation.
