HALE STILLSIN FRONT He Has Upeet the ‘Calonlations of the Talent, HAS NOTBROKEN DAWN A3 PREDICTED Testimony Regarding theConspiracy Against Fitzsimmons. CURRENT SPORTING NOTES ire NEW YORK, December 10.—Teddy Hale was still in the lead at daylight on this, the fourth day of the international bicycle race, at Madison Square Garden. The order of the other contestants was little changed, except that Rice, who had been crowding the Irishman pretty hard, had fallen back to third man, Forster going to second. Next came Schock, who had been doing very steady work during the preceding thirty-six hours. Taylor, Reading and Moore were not very far behind, and the others straggled along down to McLecd, who was 403 miles behind the leader at 9 o'clock. Hale, Rice and Reading have upset the calculations of the talent, who yesterday declared that another twenty-four hours would see all three out of the race. Hale refutes this prophecy by the ease and smoothness with which he travels around the track and Forster looks good enongh to last the whole six days. All of the riders took a rest during the night, Rice sleeping for three hours, Moore .two hours and Hate and Forster an hour each. Shortly after 2 o'clock Moore, who was very sleepy and wobbling over the track, ran into Forster, throwing him against the inner rail. Neither was hurt. A little later Moore fell off his wheel again, scratching his left eye and braising bis wrist. A cat, which came from nobody knows where, scampered across the track shortly after 3 o'clock, just as Pierce was sailing along. He ran into it and turned a somer- sault, but landed on kis hands and feet un- injured. Glick, who has more than his share of misfortune, had to cook his own meals today, his trainer having left him. He is looking and feeling b: same might be said for Gannon, ssiday, Ash- inger and Smith. Rice and Maddox see ned in tne best of condition of any of the men later in the mcrning; Rice going a very fast mile, and Maddox rolling off over thirty-three miles ja two hours. Following is the 10 o'clock score: Hale, 1,188 miles, 1 lap; Rice, 1,126, 3; Foster, 1,154, 3; Moore, 1,093, 1; Schock, 1,111; Reading, 1,100; ylor, ‘1,089, 9; Pierce, 1,081, 1; Smith, 984, 6; Maddox, 1,089, Glick, 883, 2; Gannon, 850, 9; McLeod, 3. ‘Twelve o'clock score: Hale, 1,210 miles: Rice, 1,145; Forster, 1,1 ; Moore, 1,115.5; Schock, 1,129.5; Reading, 1,129.7; Taylor, 1,117.9; Pierce, 1,111.7; Smith, 1,111.2; Ash- inger, 1,013.3; Maddox, 1,030.6; Cassidy, 1,002.1; Glick, 903.6; Gannon, 905.5; Mc- Leod, 805.6. These scores are at the end of the eighty-fourth hour. THE SHARKEY CO: TRACY. Testimony of His Trainers Regarding the Alleged: Fraud. “Australian Billy’ Smith, one of Shark- ey’s trainers, was the-first witness in the legal contest between Sharkey and Fitz- simmons for the $10,000 purse in San Fran- cisco yesterday. He detailed his work in connection with preparing Sharkey for the ring, and said when the question of select- ing a referee was mooted in Sharkey's training quarters he was asked to suggest a referee. He suggested,Hiram Cook, and said Lynch then asked him ff Ne knew Cook well enough “‘to talk business with him.” Afterward, witness said, Lynch character- ized Cook as ‘‘no goud,” because he would not favor his own brother in a fight. On the evening of the fight Sharkey told wit- ness that Earp had been “fixed” as referee, and that “Earp was all right.” Witness “described the uproar over the preliminaries to the fight, and said when Fitzsimmons objected to the bandages on Sharkey's hand, Earp went over to Sharkey’s corner and said: “Take off those cloths; it will be all right anyway.” Witness said when Sharkey received the knockout blow on the jaw in the eighth round, Lynch said to Sharkey: “Lie low; hold your hands on your groin, and pretend to faint with pain.” Sharkey was then carried to a room. He did not appear to be hurt. Witness said Allen, another trainer, removed Sharkey’s bandages and did the work which caused the swelling. Sharkey was then driven to his hotel in a hack. Allen was with him. Sharkey was all right. George Allen, another of Sharkey’s train- ers, corroborated the story of the previous witness, adding that several physicians were refused admittance when Sharkey was undergoing the operation with which Allen produced the evidence of a foul. Lynch said no doctor should come into the room and interfere with his plans. Wit- ness said Sharkey told him the National Athletic Club was composed of Groom, Gibbs, Lynch and Sharkey, and that Shar- key was to receive 20 per cent of the pro- ceeds of the fight after the purse was de- ducted. Sharkey said his three partners in the Na- tional Club were broke, and Sharkey had had to advance $2,500 for preliminary ex- penses, which had left the sailor pugilist stranded financially. Witness said a few days before the fight Sharkey told him he thought Earp would be the right kind of a referee for him, and added it would be worth $2,500 to Earp if he w Kind of a referees) | "® Were the right Manager Lynch’s Statement. Dan. J. Lynch, Sharkey’s manager and backer, made the following statement last night to the Associated Press: “Mr. Sharkey desires all his friends, and especially those in the east, to suspend judgment on the story told today in court by Australian Billy Smith until Sharkey can be heard on the stand. The fact of the matter is that Smith perjured himself, and we will prosecute him for perjury when the present trial is over. -His statement is a tissue of falsehood from beginning to end, and it is very clear to me that he has been bought by the Fitzsimmons crowd to give testimony damaging to Sharkey'’s case. Smith demanded $1,000 after the fight for four weeks’ assistance as trainer. Sharkey refused to give more than $400. This is animus of his testimony in court todays DEFEATED THE CENTRALS. Wood's Commercial College Eleven Won, 16 to 0. The Wood's Commerojal College boys de- feated the Central High School eleven yes- terday afternoon at ‘Bincoln Park 16-0. There were four touch downs, no trials for goals being attempted, as the field had no Seal posts. The Commercial boys outplay- ed the High School at every point, and on- ly once did the Centraix’get the ball in -heir opponents’ territory, but the advantage was soon lost. The Central team was without the services of Albert and Ball, and played the entire game of two twenty-minute halves with only ten men. line-up: Shaw (capt. Hoover. O'Connor. Norcum.

The second game of the Central-Eastern veries for the High School foot ball cham- pionship will be played tomorrow afternoon on Columbia Field, 17th and C streets northwest, at 3 o'clock. The Centrals won the first of the series and confidently expect to win the second, as they considerably out- weigh the Easterns, especially in the line: but the Easterns will doubtless give the Centrals a hard fight. They have improved a great deal in their interference and ag- gressive and offensive plays. The line has had extra coaching, and although the meu are greatly outweighed by the Central rush- ers, they hope to give a better account of themselves. The Central team will be strengthened by Exley, who will play left end. Shuster and Bogan will each have an opportunity to display his foot ball abilities by alternating at right half back. Mr. Stuart Johnson or the Columbia Athletic Club will referee, Mr. Conard of Cornell will umpire, and Messrs. English of the Central and Wilson of the Eastern will act as linesmen.

The new half-mile track at Magruder, Md., just beyond the District line, wil! be opened Saturday, it is now announced, un- der the auspices of the Prince George’s County Racing Association. It is said that Carter Hall will be the presiding judge, Frank Bray the starter, and R. T. Brooke the secretary of the concern. There will be five reces a day, it is understood, for purses of $115. Few horses are now at the track. Juniors Get the Championship. The juniors of Georgetown University played the last foot ball game of the season yesterday afternoon with the sophomores and defeated them easily, 12 to 0. This gives the juniors the inter-class foot ball championsuip for the year. The game was prettily played, and there were many fine exhibitions. The sophs were unable to do anything. : Queer Wheelmen Defeated. The Washington Light Infantry basket ball team defeated the Queer Wheelmen in a well-played game last evening at the armory, the score standing 15 to 0. This is perhaps the worst defeat of any team of the season and places the Infantry team in the lead of the other clubs. The Infantry team played with great vigor, and Mc- Cabe succeeded in placing the ball in the basket six times during the game. Shreve came next with four goals, and Schafhirt with three goals. Twenty Rounds to a Draw. Joe Walcott, the famous colored welter- weight, and Tommy West, tne middle- weight, both of Boston, fought twenty rounds to a draw last night before the Marlborough Athletic Club, in New York. Walcott had the better of the early rcunds. After the sixth round West settled down and fought a great fight. From then until the end of the battle he made a great showing and surprised the dusky cham- pion. —_>__ FRIENDS OF CUBA. Work of the Junta in Organising Sympathizern. The Cuban junta in the United States has invaded Missouri. Agents of the revolution- ary forces struggling to free the blighted Island of Cuba from the oppression of Spanish rule, under the direct supervision of Senor Palma, president of the New York junta, are working secretly in Missouri for financial and other assistance to the strug- gling Cubans. It is understood that these same agents have already organized branches of the junta in Ohio, Indiana and Illinois, with headquarters ‘in Cleveland, Indianapolis and Chicago, with small substations in the larger cities of these states. In Missouri the main offices, it is stated, will be in St. Louis, with branches at Sedalia, Spring- field and Kansas City. The headquarters in Iowa will be at Des Moines, with sub- stations at Burlington and Sioux City. It ts the intenticn of the Cuban sym- pathizers in the United States to extend the junta from one section of the country to the other, overlooking no opportunity or advantage of advancing the cause of Cuban liberty. One object of the junta is to influence the movement looking to the recognition of the Cuban revolutionists by this government. There is no international law against the league as a body of sympathizers, but sym- pathy with the movement being one of the minor ideas of the organization, as com- pared with that of giving substantial and serviceable assistance to the revolutionists, the promoters of the junta are operating with a precaution that surrounds their movements with comparative protection against possible it:terference on the part of the federal authorities. The organizers for the junta in Missouri are said to be Senor Cortez Delasnio and Senor Jose Petorez, both native Cubans. These gentlemen have made frequent trips to all the larger cities in the state. The branches in St. Louis, Kansas City and St. Joe are the largest in the state, but none of these are yet on a footing of strength that warrants public action. Any Cuban resident or American who will donate some- thing to the liberty of Cuba may be en- rolled as a member. The total membership in St. Louis is said to be about 1,500, and in_the state about 4,000. President J. Reardon of the Spanish Club says there can be no doubt of the existence of a Cuban junte in Missouri. A club of Cuban sympathizers is being organized at Butte, Mont., to join the in- surgents in January. Capt. Bordeaux is the organizer, and nearly 200 names are now on the list. —_— +02 —_ __ FRIENDS OF THE RED MEN. Annual Meeting of the Women’s Na- tional Indian Association. ‘day.

DECISION AFFIRMED. Court of Appeals Gives Damages to Thos. G. Lansde The Court of Appeals yesterday after- noon affirmed the judgment of the court below in the case of Thos. G. Lansden agt the Washington Gas Light Company, Chas B. Bailey and John Leetch, the secretary and superintendent, respectively, of the in which Mr. Lansden was awarded $12,500 damages for an alleged lbel published in the Progressive Age of New York. Mr. Lansden was in the employ of the company as general superintendent from November 1, 1886, until June 1, 1893, being by profession a gas engineer, having been @ constructor of gas works and a manufac- turer of gas for about thirty years.
