Special Dispatch to The Call. NEW YORK, Oct. 2.—The Evening Post says: There is a strong probability that the next challenger for the Ameri- ca’s cup will be Major Eustace Jameson, M. P. He is a warm friend of Sir Thomas Lipton and witnessed the races between the Shamrock and the Columbfa. Should Major Jameson challenge he will have the Shamrock a trial horse. Anybody who challenges wiil be welcome to the vacht for such a purpose, but Major Jameson would be particularly so because of the friendship existing between he and Sir Thomas. The Jameson boat would very probably be built from a Watson design, and, it Is said, would be built at Belfast, ex-Lord Mayor Pirrie, the head of the firm of iand & Wolff, being quite willing to un- dertake the work. Tven the name of the boat has heen discussed, and while some of the mutual friends of both the major and Sir Thomas were in favor of having it called Sham- rock, the most favored name wnas Hi- bernfa. Major Jameson might chailenge through the Kingstown Royal JYacht Club, but will probabl through_either the Re Roral Corks.

The series of games last week left the four teams of the league in about the | same relative positions. Sacramento has held the first place in the column for so | long that thefans are of a common opinion that no change will be made this season. | This may be so, or it may not. An in- jection of a small dose of chance one way ¢or the other may force San Francisco up | to. the top notch, and when the season is over, at the end of next month, the locals may have the pennant. The fight between Oakland and Santa Cruz for third place | still continues. As they are but 2 per cent | apart in rank, for all practical pur- poses they may be said to be tied. | A curlosity of last week's games was | the even break. Hach team won and lost a game, and as only two games were played on account of the rain Saturday afternoon, the expected change in rank- ing did not happen. This week may bring what half the fans are praying for, & | switching of positions by the first two | and by the last two teams. The standing of the clubs is as follow: CLUBS. TUA IS Eacramento .

In regard to first base men, the league has quite a few crackerjacks, and Lange says, in relation to the ambition of local players to get into the big league, that & good player should not waste his time at_the first bag if he expects to play | in the Natlopal League.

Bit of Fashion, the crack Eastern filly owned by Burns & Waterhouse, again cast a feeling of gloom over her admirers and backers at Oakland yesterday. She started once before at the meeting and her defeat on that particular occasion was ascribed to lack of condition. Yesterday in a three-cornered contest at seven fur- longs Bathos, the Montana-bred colt, showed his heels to the Easterner from the start. In the first betting Princess Zeika and Bit of Fashion opened equal choices, with Bathos the outsider. So much coin went in on the Burns & Water- house fllly that the odds against the Prin- cess went to 8 to 5. The race developed a surprise. To a pretty start Ruiz took the lead with Bathos and, holding the colt well together, won all the way, finishing three lengths ahead of the two young misses, which were fighting it out des- perately for the place. Thorpe, on the favorite, had the best of the saddle ar- gument with Ward, winning by a neck. Southern Girl, the stablemate of Bit of Fashion and formerly considered her in- ferior, scored her second win In the six furlong sprint for all ages. She had Sat- suma to beat, and performed the feat very creditably. An 11 to 20 favorite, the aged horse, not at his best anyway, could not get within hailing distance at the close. The winner now looks to be the better of this brace of high-priced horse- flesh, apparently being able to continue on, after stepping the distance in 1:15 flat. The racing card offered turf-goers had more of a class twang to it than any yet furnished during the season, and in conse- quence the attendance was large. Favor- ites were more than fairly successful, cap- turing four of SiX purses. Thorpe, astride Wilmeter, landed the opening event, a cheap six furlong selling dash, at odds of 4 to 1. He had his mount in front from the jump, leading My Dear past the stand three lengths. Shannon. ette nosed Alaska, the second choice, out for third place. Trainer *‘Butch” Fisher started Plan in the six furlong run, third on the card, for the first time this season. The chestnut's price drifted from 6 to 5 to threes, and he Won like breaking sticks. Chihuahua closed favorite, but blew up, after chas- ing out in the lead with Sybaris, T, Walsh, astride Plan, went sightseeing at the stretch turn and then held his field safe. Sybaris was second,.a neck before Sallie Goodwin. Barney Schreiber’s colors were seen for the first time on Forte, winner of the mile and a sixteenth affair. The bay gelding received substantial support, closin a pronounced choice, and coming through in the stretch under Ward's clever handling, downed Donator with considerable to Spare. Rainier could not repeat, landing in _the show, The 4 to 1 shot Montellade almost created a flutter of excitement by his showing in the closing mile run. He led the fleld into the stretch, but was gradu- ally overhauled and beaten out by the fa- vorite Rosinante, also piloted by Ward. Show honors fell to Morinel, Track Notes. St. Anthony was recently purchased from E. Corrigan by “Frisco” Lind. Po- tente, another member of the Corrigan string, is now in the stable of Galen Brown. According to a telegram recelved at Oakland yesterday, Fred Foster with a stable of fourteen horses will leave Chi- cago for California next hiondai’. Yellow- tail and Peace are among the lot. %resldlng Judge Murphy rendered the following ruling from the stand yester- day: For suspiclous rides on Sorrow and Katie Gibbons, Jockey McCloskey is ruled off the turf. On October 18 Rio Chico was apparently not ridden to win by J. Brown, finishing ‘among the “also rans.” Two days later Brown again rode Rlo Chico and the sprinter was played for a good thing, just being beaten the last few jumps by Lodestar. Brown was also ruled off. When Rainier was beaten by Festoso on Tuesday Jockey Buchanan apparently evinced no great desire to win, riding con- trary to orders. One or two previous ef- forts of the same rider looked none too clean and he was llkewise ruled off. W, Short and Leo Solomon were warned off the Oakland track for making money propositions to Jockey McCloskey. Short told McCloskey he would get a bet down for him whenever that rider thought he could win, and Judge Murphy contends that a person who will do this is very apt to make counter propositions. Leo Solo- mon was accused of the same offense. The Honig stables were reinstated. To-Day’s Entries.
