In reply to a query sent by him to Albert Mott, referee of the inter-city races in Bal- timore July 25, when Fred Sims was ruled off from the Washington team on account of insufficient residence here, Chief Consul W. T. Robertson of the District Division, L. A. W., has received the following reply: “BALTIMORE, July 31, 1806. “My Dear Robertson: i No protest was made to me, as referee, by any one against Fred Sims riding in that race, and ceriainly no one from Washing- ten (except Mr. McKean, manager of the local team) sald anything about it to me, even in conversation. “Before the team race was called I sought an terview with Mr. McKean, on the track, while the race meeting was in prog- ress, and, as referee of the meeting, official- ly informed him that Fred Sims was not eligible to start. 1 also informed him that the decision was from the chairman of the racing board. L requested him not to pre- sent Fred Sims at the tape, stating that I could not possibly let him ride, and that to present him under the conditions of a de- cision by the chairman of the racing beard, that he was not eligible, would be not only a defiance of the chairman, but would be disagreeable for the reteree and humiliating to the river. Nevertheless, Mr. McKean did present him, and I decided him not eligible to run, even under protest. I could not con- sclenously do anything else under the rules, and my own personal knoledue of the details concerning Fred Sims’ Pesidence, “In the official interview above mentioned with Mr. McKean he asked me if Mr. Gid- ecn's decision was based on a protest from Washington, and I told him it was not. I also told him how the decision was brought about—that it was the natural result of an inquiry made from Baltimore as to Fred Sims’ eligibility to ride tn a team of a Hal- timore club. A decision being asked on that point naturally brought up Mr. Sims’ status in any team race, and it was found that he was not eligible for any team. “I will add that, as referee, I should not | have permitted Fred Sims to ride in any team race, at that time, whethe he was protested or not, or whether the chairman of the racing board had given his decision or not. When I act as referee, and abso- lutely know facts of my own personal knowledge that make any rider ineligible, from any cause, to ride in any race, I shall not permit him to start, even under pro- test, if the majority of the executive boerd agree with my opinion, as they did fn this case. (See track rule 2.) I ‘shall dis qalify ary competitor for the event’ of whom I am ‘personally cognizant’ of being disquali- fied by facts. (See track rule No. 1.) 1 own ex- perience (active en the track and in. the legislation for the sport) and Judgment based on that experience to gulde me, and 1 will execute the office strictly in ac ord- ance, faithfully and consclentiously, always having in view that I must be certain of jy ground or suffer the humiliation of a reversal of a decision on an appeil to the national racing board. I ‘shall determine all questions of fact’ (track rule 1) when I know them beyond peradventure, but will permit a competitor to ride under protest, the facts to be discovered afterward, where there is a reasonable doubt. “I will also add, in justice to our chic? consul, that when acting as official referee I am only responsible to the national Tac- ing board (to whom all appeals sh5.ld be sent), and not to our clever, kind, intelli- gent and fair chief consul, Mr. Conway W.

COWES, Isle of Wight, August 3.—The regatta of the Royal London Yacht Club today marked the opening of the “Cowes week” of 1896. There are fewer yachts fly- ing the stars and stripes in these waters than in 1895. The Prince and Princess of Wales and the Duke and Duchess of York were present on beard the royal yacht Osborne. The Duke of Sparta, heir apparent to the throne of Greece, and the Duchess of Sparta are guests of the queen at Osborne, and Prince Charles and Princess Maud of Denmark are expected here during the week. Britannia, Ailsa, Caress and Satanita started In the race for yachts exceeding ferty-rating, for a prize of £80 for the first yacht and 425 for the second, course from Cowes, round Warner lghtship, Calshot lightship, East Lope buoy and back, twice ground to complete the total distance of fifty miles. The Saratoga Regatta. The annual regatta of the National Am- ateur Association of Amateur Oarsmen will be rowed on the lake near Saratoga N. ¥., on the 12th and 18th, and promises to be one of the best regattas ever held by the National Association. The list of en- tries Is large, and many of them are crews that have participated in early spring events who wish to better their records, so that fast time and exciting events aré promised. The eight-oared race 1s to be one of the exciting races of the day, the Bohemian crew of New York, the “Chippy” eight of the same city, the Baltimore Athletiz Club's unbeaten eight, and several western crews promising to put in men, and will make a sensation in amateur rowing. In the single events there are to be some crack entries also. The executive board of the esscciation will meet in the town hall on the evening of August 11. Haverford Beats Cambridge. The cricket match at Cambridge, Eng- land, between the Haverford (Pa.) College eleven and an eleven from the Cambridge University Club was won by the Amerioans.

DESCRIPTION OF THE RACES ‘Without a hitch, without a serious foul, and, indeed, without a single unpleasant incident to mar the perfection of the oc- casion, the Potomac river regatta of 1896 came off on scheduled time, and when the spray of the oars had subsided and the river began to resume its normal appear- ance, at about 7 o'clock, the Columbia club had secured three of the six trophies for first places and the other three had been won by oarsmen from other cities. It was Columbia’s day, indeed. The wearers of the winged arrow clearly won the cham- pionship of the Potomac for the season, and the colors of the other clubs must be lowered to theirs until another summer has come, with its opportunity to wrest the honors away from the C. A. C. As stated in Saturday’s Star, the banks and the bridge were well crowded at 3 o'clock, the hour for the commencement of the races. The Bartholdi steamed up the course with the umpire, Commodore Car- rigan of the Schuylkill Navy and the com- mittee and newspaper men, and shortly after 3 o'clock the junior elghts of the Co- lumblas and the Potomacs followed to the start for the first race, just at the eastern edge of the shallow water marked by the Three Sisters. From that point to the Potomac house was a mile of clear water, broken only by the piers of the Aqueduct bridge, which served admirably as markers for the course. Junior Eights. A prettier struggle between boats than that first race of junior eights covld hardly be imagined. The word was given at 3:30 o'clock, with the Columbias on the Dis- trict shore and the Potomacs near the Vir- ginia line. The Columbias got the water first and settled down at cnce into a long, easy, smooth stroke that promised good staying powers. The Potomacs hit a quick stroke that sent them into the lead, and at the first quarter the rudder of the Potomac boat was about even with the stroke oar of the Columbias. But the quick stroke soon began to tell on the wearers of the red, and when the bridge was reached Co- lumbia had crept up to about even terms. From that point down Columbia gradually gained, the long sweep telling mightily, and at the third quarter the winged arrow men had a half length to their credit, and were pulling smoethly as machines, with no signs of fatigue. At the Columbia boat house Potomac was nearly a length behind, and at the line Columbia had a full length lead. Just before:the line was reached Co- lumbia’s coxswain allowed his boat to drift with the tide inta Potomac’s water, and af- ter the finish the Columbia boat had gone so far over that there was a foul. Pi tomacs had steered as closely as possi’) to the edge of the line of small boats gath- ered at the finish, while Columbia contin- ued to press the reds further over. Had the foul occtrred before the line was passed the result might have been different. The Potomacs entered_a claim for the race, on the ground of the fouling, but Umpire Car- rigan decided thag the collision had not af- fected the result, having occurred over the line, and awarded the race to Columba. Time, 5:23 3-5. Junfor, Singles. The second racg, for junior singles, was a walkaway for Lockwood of the West Phil- adelphia Boat Club, The other entries were Peter Moar of Columbia and H. T. Maurice of Potomae. Lockwood's superior- ity was well known before the start and it was anticipated that he would have no trouble in winning. He caught the water first at the word, which was given at 4:06 o'clock, and within fifteen seconds he had shown clear water between his boat and the others. From that time on the race Was a mere procession, with Moar pluckily holding on in second place and Maurice hopelessly behind. Lockwood made one of the finest turns ever seen on the river, while Moar was very awkward in getting around his buoy. Lockwood was nearly at the bridge again on the home stretch before Mcar and Maurice straight- ened out. Lockwood won by anywhere from ten to fifteen lengths, without ex- erting himself, pulling a beautiful stroke, while Moar was second. Maurice did not finish. Lockwood's ume for the mile and a half was 10:37 2-5. Junior Fours. Inasmueh as Columbia won the junior eights their trainer decided not to start in the junior four race, which came third, this left the course open to the Arieis of Baltimore. These men looked very fit as they took their positions, and it was remarked that they would put up a game race for the senior four trophy, The Even- ing Star cup, which came next on the pro- gram. It was thought that their having no competition would serve only to warm them up for the more important event. They went over the course as a matter of form, in a leisurely manner. The time taken was 10:54, indicating the way in which they took care not to exert them- selves. Winning this race gave the Ariels the Mason cup for the second time. Senior Fours. The great race of the day was that for senior fours, which was fourth in order. There were four entries, and the prediction was freely made that there would be fouls galore, while the Pennsylvania Barge Club of Philadelphia, the present holders of the cup, were prime favorites in the betting. Columbia was easily next in preference. The Ariels had the District shore, with the Analostans next, followed toward the south by the Pennsylvanians, and the Columbias had the best position of all, on the Vi ginia side. The word was given at 5 The Pennsylvanians were first to catch the water, and starting straight as an arrow for the arch through which they were to pass, they steered one of the most beauti- ful courses ever seen here, and did not scem to lose a foot on account of drifting. ‘rhe Columbias hit up a quick stroke at the start that sent them ahead a bit at the quarter. The Ariels, too, were rowing hard with a quick stroke, but they seemed some- what ragged. The Pennsylvanians had set- tled down to a long, steady stroke, while the Analostans were in the bunch, but steering badly. Columbia lost her advan- tage by bad steering before the bridge was reached. Her bow man took the boat out of her course and passed through the wrong arch. Half a,Jength must have been lost in this manner, At the wridge the Pennsylvanians were a irifle in the lead, perhaps a quarter of a length, while Ariel was second. The Analostan boat had a tendency to swing into Pennsyivania’s wa- ter, and a foul seemed imminent just be- low the bridge But Moore, in the bow, soon caught his bearings and brought his boat around just. in‘time. The tnrning was peautiful. The four boats seemed to be broadside on at,the same time. Pennsyl- vania turned a bit ahead of the others, while Columbia Was taking a wide detour to get around the buoy. The Ariels, how- ever, made the prettiest turn of all. The boat seemed to be anchored on the cown- stream side, while she swung around like a top, and in a twinkling she was straighten- ed out and off for home, gaining nearly two lengths in a few strokes, as a resuli of this gcod work. But her pace was too hot, end slowly but surely Pennsylvania overtook her, rowing steadily, and when the roses of the boats went under the bridge they were abcut even. When they emerged Pennsylvania had gained five feet, and thenceforth the race was hers. It seemed as though the Ariels would easily beat out the local crews, but there were surprises in store for the spectators. ‘he Analostans came through the arches third and the Co- lumbias fourth. About an eighth of a mile below the Pennsylvanians kad a length lead, and the Ariels as much, while Columbia and Analostan were fighting for third place. In another eighth Columbia had pulled up nearly even with Ariel, and Apa- lostan had caught a second wind. The Bal- timore men seemed to have shot their bolt, and steadily they fell behini, while the two leca] crews were hitting up a magnificent stroke and trying like fiends to overtake the Pennsylvanians. But the winners of ’95 + | had too much of a lead and too much re- serve muscle. Their advantage was easily held, while Columbia and Analostan fought for second place, Artel having gone behind half a length. Just above the Columbia beat house Ariel spurted and the three beats were almost even, with Pennsylvania an easy winner. Between the two houses Columbia spurted and crossed the line sec- ond, a length behind Pennaylvan! with Analostan lapping and Ariel a length be- hind Analostan. The ‘ime of the race was 8.59. Light-Weight Fours. When the time for the fifth race, for light-weight fours, was called, it was an- nounced that the Potomacs would not start, owing to the elckness of Mr. J. Hadley Doyle, who was taken ill during the day, as a result of his training. So the Colum- bia crew rowed over the course alone. There was no time taken. Intermediate Eights. The sixth and last race of the day was between the three local crews, intermediate eights. Columbia had the District shore, Analostan the middle course and Potomac the Virginia shore. This race was started up river and rowed straightaway for a mile. It was one of the hardest-fought contests ever known in the history of local aquatics. The word was given at 6:40, and Potomac caught the waier first, and, as in the first race, started off with a sharp, quick strcke. Columbia again took a long, slow, steady stroke that saved the power of the men and yet kept the boat within easy reaching distance. Analostan rowed a medium stroke and showed good form. At Holtzman’s wharf the boats were on even terms. Midway between the turning buoys of the mile and half races and the bridge Potomac had a lead of about ha?f a Jength. Columbia then began to pull up, and as the noses of the boats went under the bridge Columbia had a lead of a few ‘eet, with Potomac second and Analostan third, but with any boat of the three in good po- sition for the final spurt. Number three man in the Potomac boat began to show signs of failure just below the bridge, while the bow man in Columbia's boat was a bit weak. Down the line the boats went, with- out any waier showing between the first and the last. Columbia held the slight lead gained at the bridge and slowly increased it, foot by foot, while Potomac and Ana- lostan were struggling to gain water. At the Columbia house the boats were still bunched, but, barring accidents, it was Columbia's race, and then the other crews put on their last pounds and went over the line right on Columbia's he Potomac second and Analostan third, th no clear water showing. Time for this race, 5.32 3-5. The Trophies Distributed. Thus the Philadelphia Barge Club retains for the second year the possession of The Evening Star cup, and should it win it again next scason it will become {ts abso- lute property. The Mason cup, likewise, is held for the second time in succession by the Ariels of Baltimore, while the Wash- ington Post cup, for the intermediate eights, is returned from the Baltimore Ath- letic Club to the Columbia Athletic Club. The trophies and the medals and banners were awarded Saturday evening ai the Co- lumbia club house on reet by Commo- dore Carrigan. The Columbia imen were very happy over their successes and enter- tained the other oarsmen in royal fashion. Record of the Clubs. y P. Clubs. x a piludelphia > Brooklyn. . sburg...

Baltimore whitewashed Washington in Oystertown Saturday afternoon by the ig- nominious score of 7 to 0. The Senators Played as though without a directing head. Jcyce had gone to New York, and Farrell had been unable to find a uniform to fit him, se German played third without mark- ed success. Mercer was hit pretty much whenever Baltimore desired, while Hoffer was Invincible when hits were needed. In the sixth Hoffer's fine work was particu- larly displayed. DeMontreville singled and went along on McGuire's out. Brown walked, and with two on bases and one out, Hoffer ‘persuaded Cartwrignt to put up a high fly, and Abbey, who played in Lush’'s place, fouled out. Again in the eighth, af- ter DeMontreville and McGuire had hit safely, Brown, Cartwright and Abbey struck out in succession. The great diffi- culty with the Senators seemed to be that they had no cne to direct them, and they went through the motions of playing in a perfunctory manner. The score, by in- nings, follows: R.H.E. Ballimcre ...02050000x 764 Washington.0 0000000 001 1 Earned runs—Baltimore, 4. Two-base hits —Hoffer (2) and McGuire.

Time of game—2 hours and 5 minutes, JOHN WARD'S PLEASANT worps. A High Tribute to His Old Associate, Joyce. John M. Ward, who is credited with “pringing out” Joyce in the Brooklyn Brotherhood club of '90, writes as follows in the New York Journal today of his old associate: And as for “Scrappy Bill,” he is worth his weight in gold. The nickname “Scrap- py” may be misleading. New York root- ers must not understand that Joyce is quar- relsome or walks around with a chip on his shoulder. He is a hard-working, earn- est player, who, in consequence of his zeal, gets into numerous arguments with the umpire and opposing players, but actual fisticuffs is farthest from his mind. Not that Bill would not counter, and counter hard, if the occasion required, but no one need feel any alarm, when disputes arise, that Bill means actual violence. When he feels himself especially aggrieved by the umpire, for a strike called that was an inch or two higher cr lower than it should have been, his face assumes a pained, saddened, dejected expression that would melt a heart of stone; but when he “whips” one over the heads of the outfielders at a critical stage of the game he could not keep his face straight if he tried. And he has quite a knack of hitting the ball just when a hit is needed. Joyce is not a first-class fielder at third base, and it’s better to say so now than allow any one to think he is and then be disappointed. He tries for everything, is nut afraid of any hit, does not hesitate to block a base runner, even if he does get a taste of the spikes; but he makes errors, and to pairons of the Polo grounds, who have seen the peerless work of George Davis, he will be positively “bad” at times; but he more than makes up for it in other ways. There is no more earnest player, none more conscientious and faithful. When his team wins, no matter what his own work has been, life iooks bright and rosy; but, when it loses, Bill is a sick man. He does not play for his own record, but for the team. He is good-natured, warm- hearted, full of enthusiasm, but, like all such natures, very susceptible to unkind criticisms.

Farrell to Be Found on Third This Afternoon. Charley Farrell, who will be found on third base for the Washington club this afternoon, in place of Joyce, came into prominence in the base ball world as catcher for Anson's Chicago team in 1889. Anson is said to have regarded him more bighly than any catcher Chicago ever had, and Farrell willingly bears testimony to the value of the “oid man’s” coaching. In 189 Farrell played with the Chicago Brotherhood team. In "91 he covered third base and caught for Arthur Irwin's Boston Association team. When the new league was formed he was transferred to Pitisvurg, where he covered third base in 133 game: Jie had an average of .Ss4, and led Pinckney, Denny Lyons, Kadtord, Bassett, Joyce, Robins: a; mond, Knowles, Dowd and Camp.
