August 1.—The rich Ohio stake of $5,000, the classic of the North Randall track, was won to- day by Baden, black son of Gingara, in lhm straight heats. The Jersey City horse was. driven by Rodney. ‘While he easily defeated his fleld, the 'best time he showed, 2.07 1-4, d1d not approach the mark for the classic. Rodney was presented the silver cup that goes with the event by Pruh‘hnt K. H. Devereaux. Baden was a distinct surprise, -the talent having fancied Chatty Direct as the most likely to win first money. The mare sold against the field $50 to §40 before the first heat and was heav- ily played. It is said that mors than $10,000 was bet on the race. e mare finished &econd, the Wanderer third and Elizabeth Ray fourth. Billy Burke, under the guidance of McDonald, won the championship trot- tink sweepstakes, with $1,000 added money, in a performance marked for fts competition against time rather than starters.

ERRONEOUS IDEAS OF AMERICAN ATHLETES. English Papers Tell of Fabulous Sums Spent in Training Our Olympic Teams. London, ;August 1—The continued agitation over Great Britain’s poor showing in the Olympic games recent- ly held in Stockholm brought about a meeting tonight of the Athletic Advi- sory club fo consider the situation. Lord Desborough, who presided, said that if Great Britain competed at Ber- lin, where the next Olympic games are to be heid, she must take the games as seriously as the other nations. He advocated a team representing the en- tire empire in the track events. Lord Desborough said that England had not done badly in her palmiest days, but could not do betier against a marvel like Kolehmainen. “The Finn said he, “that I would not be surprised to see him running for the United States at Berlin.” Lord . Desborough proposed that a fund of $25,000 should be gathered in each of the next, three years and $50,- 000~ the fourth year, vo be used for preparations. A letter from Sir Arthur Conan Doyle was read, announcing that he will appeal to the public for §$125,- 000 for the same purpose. The Rev. R. 8. De Courcy Laffan, a member of the British Olympic com- mittee, —proposed that $150,000 be raised. The most exaggerated impressions prevail in England regarding the Am- erican Olympic team. Enormous sums were spent and an army of trainers were carried, according to British newspapers. Lond Desborpugh is quot- ed as saying that the runming track and swimming tank constructed Americans cost $100,000. The. solemn Blackwoods Magazine prints an edi- torial under the head, “The Folly of International Sports,” which s the flercest attack upon the Americans that has yet appeared, It accused them of being professionals, “whose only business i{s to show that these United States can whip the universe,” The editorial concludes by advoeat- ing that the Olymplec games be aban- doned. \ Clippers Looking for Games, The Clippers would-lfke to arrange a game with the Knights of Honor for Baturday afternoon at Jewett City, omhgmr.k;onhm‘o‘fa,oomnwflun = —Best Mile in 2.07 1Hu§kci§§bmw fi’fn Winner of Chamionship Sweepstakes. aboard the steamer Finland for thef provided half expenses are given.

He does not look as strong and rug- ged as some of the other big line pitchers, but at that he tips the scales at a little over 130 and is es hard as nails all the time. He will be pitching when he is 32 years old in big league, and that will be 10 years from now. Marquard Fined $28.

New York, August ],—Dealings in stocks today were more ictive, the dis- tribution wider apd tie tone stron- ger than in any receit session. At times, especially in the first hour, when transactions aggregated almost 200,000 shares, the market assumed an air approaching buoyancy, which wes temporarily arrested by profit- taking. In the final hour, following the declaration of the regular dividend on St. Paul common, actlvity was re- sumed and higher prices were estab- lished. The movement today derived no small part of its impulse from abroad. London sending over a list of general advances, led by Canadian Pacific. That stock opened here with a new high record and a gain of four points, while practically all the speculative favorites were up a point or more. A few specialties” shared in the rise, which was most significant, howeve: in the fact that it had its leadership in the standard railway shares, *partic- ularly those comprised in the north- west. Steel held its place in respect of actlvity, and sold at its best price in several weeks. Today's gains took in practically ewv: ssue of knowa merit, as well as many of the more obscure securities. The action of the St. Paul directors could hardly hdve been based upon financial returns, which have been dls- couraging, 5o Wall street interpreted the report of the regular dividend as an indication that the very powerful interests comtrolling that system are hopeful of the immediate future, a feature which probably has its basis on the crop outlook. Various important rallways pubhish- ed earnings today for Jume, those of the Pennsylvania system being most favorable, but without effect upon its stock, New York Central, Atchison and Atlantic Coast line also made material net Inereases. Bonds were dull, with gains in oon- vertible issue. Total sales par value aggregated $2,142,000. United States government bonds were unchanged on call.

" Big Jeft ffer, the former Nation- al league twirler, is leading the New England pitchers with the fine aver- age of 1,000. . “Charley” Hemphill, the former “Yenkee” outfielder, has been bought by the Columbus American associa~ tion club from Atlanta of the Souu:— ern league.

Ping Bodle leads the club with an average of ,293, but he is being pressed hard by Harry Lord and Shano Collins, Just about this time it looks as If to recall the Giants would do well Lou Drucke and his “subway” balll Drucke has been burning up the league with the Toronto team. The fans around the American league circuit have waited patiently for the Washington team to slump, but ub to the present there has been nothing doing in the slump line. The veteran, Paskert, is playing exceptional game for the Phnliu. Paskert, Lobert, Magee, Cravath and Luderus, the first five men in the bat- ting order, remind one of a Cobbe Crawford delegation. Roy Chapman, the recrult shortstop of the Cleveland club, made a fine record this season !n the Amesicas Aas tion. In 48 games he stole 30 basos and from his position as oclean- up hitter scored 37 runs. He made 61 hits, his average being .357. The New York fens are rooting for the Red Sox to win the American leagus pennant, for they fgel certaln that Marquard is capable of bebating Stahl's all tossers. Marquard will do well to put extra hard kmots in his shoelacings In he faces the Red Sox. Joe Woods, who leads the American league pitchers, has had to do much harder work than Marquard of New York, s while “Rube” was winning those 19 games, he got the credit for finishing out many of the other fel- lows’ strings.
