The crowd that journeyed out to Ingle- side Coursing Park yesterday to watch the hounds chase the fleet hares over the | fleld witnessed some fine sport.

For six innings Cal Ewing’s packers of dress-suit cases and Uncle Harris" sting- ers failed to score. Then the locals bit off a chunk of luck and forced the scorer to pull the cord that rang the bell that | woke the boy who works on the score board. The Dudes were in bad luck and they gave the boy no necessary or un- necessary labor. TUp to the seventh inning the play was of a peculiar order, few hits, plenty of men on bases and no runs. This is how the game was won and why Ewing smiles no more. Riley fanned thrice and said something not in polite vocabularies. Then Mr. Pyne took a stick and made the first station by an honest safe hit., Fitzpatrick played Casey at the bat and went to the benches after three air-slashing fans. All this time Pyne played a love game with the first bag, fearing to stray away. Mr. Brockhoff was next to bat and Pyne took heart and attempted to steal second. Hammond threw to Francks, who was anxiously awaiting the ball, but it was | & bad effort on the part of Hammond and the spheroid went a-bounding to far cen- yne is fleet of foot and he fairly flew over the course, beating the ball home by the closest possible margin. There was wild and unrestrained excite- ment in the avuncular camp and the Dudes were a few shades bluer than ultramarine. Several times after this burst it looked as If there was a chance for the Duges, but nothing came of it. Some good fitld- g, few hits and excellent work by the twirlers kept the score at the low-water mark. The game in several instances was a matter of Dame Fortune's smiles.

CANADIAN HORSE LOSES TO WARING Result of the Prospect Han- dicap at Gravesend Race- course. Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Sept. 16.—In the Prospect handicap at Gravesend to-day for two- year-olds Montanic was settled on as the | favorite and Sadduccee as second choice. Mr. Jersey, who carried the money of the Canadian_ contingent, made all the run- ning to the upper turn, with Waring at | his withers. Rounding the turn, Waring began to go up, and, as they straightened out in the stretch, Waring took a lead of a couple of lengths, which he gradually | Increased to the end, winning very eas- ily. Sadduccee came with a rush at the end, but could not catch Mr. Jersey, who finished second. In the last furlong Sakh- rat got jammed against the rail and fell, breaking his shoulder. He was shot on the track. In the Occidental handi- cap May Hempstead was favorite by a small margin over Imp, while King Bar- leycorn was well backed, and the others had followers. King Barleycorn made the running for a furlong, when Imp joined him, and together they set a hot pace around the lower turn and up the back- stretch, opening up a big gap. On round- ing the upper turn they began to go back, and the others were ciose aboard as they straightened out for home. Then Pre- vious came with a rush and Charentus fouoweg. and in the hottest kind of a e pair finished first and second, the pacemakers were unplaced. None of the backed horses were in the money.

Superior Judge Lawlor has flled an opinion in which he holds that it is be- yond his jurisdiction to review the action | of Polica Judge Graham ordering the re- lease of Joseph P. Frenna, murderer of J. F. Turner, from custody. A writ of certiorari demanding a review of the pro- ceedings of the lower court, secured at the instance of the prosecution, has in consequence been dismissed by the court, but the fact remains that Frenna is still in jail. Immediately upon the dismissal of the writ George D. Collins, who, dur- ing the certiorari proceedings, occupfed the position of special prosecutor, went {mmediately to Presiding Judge Dainger- field and lald the facts of the case be- fore him. Judge Daingerfield forthwith issued a bench warrant for the arrest of the murderer, if his release was secured on bonds, remanding him to the custody of the Sheriff without bail. An Informa- | tion charging Frenna with murder was | then filed with the court and the case was assigned to Judge Cook for trial. To- morrow morning Judge Cook wiil review the case and if he finds that ‘‘the proof | is evident or the presumption great’ that | Frenna is guilty of the crime charged he | will refuse him his liberty on ball; if otherwise the prisoner will be released on bonds, but for a greater sum than that fixed by the committing magistrate. After reviewing the facts of the arrest, preliminary examination and admittance to bail of the prisoner and calling atten- tion to the fact that the law makes Judges from those of the lowest court to the supreme gtribunal equally qualified magistrates, Judge Lawlor says: The single question before the court is, Did the respondent, Hon. Thomas F. Graham, have authority to admit the defendant to bail? In other words, does the writ of certiorari lie to re- view his action in that behalf? The writ of certiorari is a writ of re- view and can only issue for the pose of reviewing final determinatios and adjudications of inferior tribunals, boards or officers exercising judicial functiors when there is no appeal nor ar}{ plain, speedy or adequate remedy. [he general scope of the writ is well defined in the case of Whitney v e B. of D. of 8. F. F. D., 14 Cal., 500. The decision say: ‘““We think it is well settled that a common law cer- tiorari tries nothing but the jurisdic- tion and incidentally the regularity of the proceedings upon which the jur- isdiction depends. It brings up no is- sue of law or fact not involved in the question of jurisdiction. Under no cir- cumstances can the review be extend- ed to the merits. Upon every question except the mere question of power the action of the inferior tribunal is final and conclusive. This we understand to be the settled doctrine both in Eng- land and in this country.” The position of the petitioner in this matter is substantially that the said respondent acted as a_ magistrate in the case; that he had pursued and acted within his authority as such magistrate up to the point of holding the defendant to answer; that his au- thonty in respect to bail is dependent upon ‘the ascertainment of a fact, namely, does the testimony show that the proof is evident or the presump- tion great? and that inasmuch as the Jurisdiction to admit to bail depends upon the ascertainment of a fact, such fact s the legitimate subject of review under a writ of certlorari on behalf of the people. The position of the respondents, however, is that the said respondent, Hon. Thomas F. Graham, acted regu- larly within the general jurisgdiction of & magistrate, which jurisdiction ex- tends ~to the determination of the question of bail in capital caseseand that having acted regularly therein the writ of certiorari does not lie on behalf of the people. It is true, as counsel has pointed out, if certiorari does not lie in a case like the one at bar the rights of the people might be serfously invaded if the magistrate failed to pl’\lden(lg or even conscientiously perform his duty therein, but such liability attaches to the enforcement of the law generally, The law itself approximates right and Justice. Every power has its corre- gponding responsibilities. The people in a country like this select those who shall enforce the laws, and If there be a failure in the administration thereof the fault ig not in the law {t- self but in the administration of it. The best and most beneficent of laws may be the subject of official abuse. The enforcement thereof in the con- creto can be no nearer perfection than is human nature itself. Upon a full consideration of the is- sues in this matter, however, the court i3 of the opinion that the authority of the magistrate in fixing bail in a cap- ital case is found in the general juris- diction conferred upon him and not made to depend upon the sufficiency of the evidence introduced before him in each particular case; that in this case the respondent, Hon. Thomas F. Graham, had authority to determine the question of bafl under such general Jurisdiction; that his action in the ex- ercise of such jurisdiction appears reg- ular on its face, and that the merits of his determination therein are not the subject of review by this court. After the decision had been read George D. Collins carried the matter to Presidin, Judge Daingerfield, with the result stmuf, while John A. Hosmer, who represents the defendant, appeared before Judge Gra- ham with a bond for Frenna's release. Before acting In the matter, however, Judge Graham presented the hond to Ex: pert Newman for investigation. Even though it is passed upon the bench war- rant still stands between Frenna and lib- erty, and the story of his crime will per- haps be told again hefore a final decision in the matter of ball is reached.

He was caught un- der the hind-quarters of the horse and as the horse attempted to rise he began kicking.
