Honor Bright, the Runner-Up, Gives Little Assistance and the Win- ner Runs the Course Prac- tically Alone. S Ruby R.,°George Nethercott's speedy young courser, captured the midweck re- serve event at Unfon Park yesterday, but paid for the honor of having her name added to the list of stake winners with her life, Honor Bright was the runner-up in the stake, and it was due to her lack of ef- fort to end the cc : that Ruby R. was forced to run a severe final and practicaily alone. So far as the g=tting in to the last round, Ruby was a bit lucky. The hares were more than a match for the stake en- tries and from the top of the card long courses were the rule. Ruby beat Rippie in the run-down 18 to 4 ‘and against Daylight In the second was given a harder course, 24 to 5, fse the flag. This seemed to kil her es, but by favor of three byes in succession the hard-worked greyhound was advanced to the final. After her last run Rupy showed great distress and had to be carried from the field. Despite every effort to save her, she died half an hour later. Kuby R. was by imported Waratah out of Little Wonder and was a full sister, by @ iater litte the great Whitehead, tile Lopez crack, whose death under like circumstances was recently recorded. Nicasio got well along the card by good work. Risky Attempt looked like a win- ner, but his clever performance was offset by hard going. The short-ends were: Ploughboy beat Rollicking Airs at § to 1, Safeguard beat Auckland at 5 to 1 and Kanaka at 4 to 1, Kibosh beat Controller at 4 to 1, O'Hara beat Random Aim at 3 to 1, Annle Law- rence beat Temple, Cecil M. beat Justice, and Risky Attempt beat Warco at 2 to 1.

H. Soden. W. H. Conant and J. B. Billings. Boston; W. W. Kerr, Barney Dreyfus and P. L. Auten, Pittsbur; J. Reach and Colonel John I. Rogers, Philadelphia; F. A. Bell, Edward Hanlon and Charl Ebbitts Brooklyn; Fred Knowles, New York; James Hart, Chicago: John T. Brush, Cincinnati, and F. de ¥ Stanley Robison, St. Lou The committee appointed by the league to hear the grievances of the Players’ Protective Association went into in parlor D. The rmmittee is ¢ posed of Messrs. Rogers, Soden and Brush. The players' organization demanded that the segsion_be an open one, which was a corded. When the session began the par- lor was crowded. The meeting was opened by Mr. Soden, who stated that as a result of correspondence between Mr. Taylor and the league magnates tne com- mittee had been appointed to listen to the demands of the players. The committee, he said, was appointed last September, but for varlous reasons could not meel the players' committee until the present ime. Mr. Soden said that the committee had no power to act, but would report the conference back to the meeting ofthe league. @i 1as Robinson and session 1 When the | Tn stating the demands of the players’ organization to the lsague committee Mr. Taylor said there were three defects in the present form of contract that the players wanted corrected. These were a modification of a reservs clause, an entire elimination of the “‘farm 3 and the meodification of * ! ing to the power of the club owners to buy and sell players or clajm them with- out first getting the player's consent. Be- fore he would consent to present the pla ers’ demand to the league committee, Mr. Taylor exacted a promise that the com- mittee would report the matter to league immediately, and that some ac would be taken by the league at pres ent session Mr. Taylor demu 1 to ton treating with the committee at first on | the ground that it bad no power to act He asked that the matter be laid over until it could be presented to a full meet- ing of the magnates. Both Chairman Soden and Colonel Rog- ers assured Mr. Taylor that the matter could be expeditiously treated if presented to the committee. “This matter is a serious one 18, said Colonel Rogers. ‘“Contracts a ne- tenths of the as<ets of a club.

Jim Nell, race politician, nearly close of the monthly boxing exhibition given by the Golden Gate Athletic Club in Washington Bquare Hall last night. His son was one of the principals In a hot boxing bout and lost the decigion. This so enraged the father that he jumped into the ring. and after wildly asking Referee McGuinness to show him the written de- cistons of the judges of the contest, angrily struck the referee. Before he could track gambler | follow up his assault spectators interfered. McGuinness tried to get at his assailant, but was held back, and later in the dress- ing-room he tried once more to repeat the blow, but was prevented by friends. Ser- geant Christensen used his club and soon had the ring cleared. Young Nell had defeated four opponents at other exhibitions with ease, and his father expected great things of him. The boy has a good left and plenty of pluck. but last night he recefved a setback when he tackled Eddy Hanlon, coxswain of the Ariel Boating Club. The lads fought one of the finest battles seen in the ('Ing in many days. Hanlon outpointed Neil in ths In the second round Neil did the clever work and hot flg caused a riot at the | shoul hting and was very even. Hanlon have been given a decision at the end of the fourth, as he bored in and had Neil guessing. An extra round was called and the boys fought each other to a stand- still. At the close of one of the flercest rounds seen In many moons, Hanlon w: given the decision. The how! of approval that went up from the spectators awak- gned the goats tethered on Telegraph hill The decision was eminently fair. The boys should be matched again. The other battles were nearly as inter- esting. Mana{nr Summerfleld showed bet- ter judgment in matching the contestan and more even fighting was seen. Jockey W. H. Martin got a decision over Tom Snailhan after four rounds of heavy fight- ing. Kid Jones defeated Mike Smith in five rounds; Tom O’Leary outpointed Wil- liam Meahan and Tom Bell was given a decision over Jack Murray after four rounds of fierce fighting.

B e e e . ] ACCIDENT AT BICYCLE A Frenchmen Go Down ani Other Riders Fall Over Them. NEW YORK, Dec. 13.—With over 1400 | miles clicked off in their pursuit of prizes in the six day bicycle race at Madison- square Garden, which ends on Saturday, seven teams were still represented on the track at midnight, or the beginning of the fourth day of the contest. The men have not been able to keep up the hurricane pace jumped into at the outset, but they have struggled to do as much as their strained and tired bodies will allow them. For the first two days they were ahead of the record, but now they are far be- hind the record of 1568, “To prevent the loss of a lap, Flsher performed perhaps the hardest task of the race. In the afternoon he got a punc- ing for a spurt. The other men noticed Fisher's misfortune and tried to take ad- vantage of it. Fisher pedaled along with the bunch, however, in spite of the soft- | ening tire and kept up the pum ing of his | crippled machine for a full mile, at the end of which time Frederick relieved him. When Fisher dismounted his tire was perfeetly flat. An accident which put Aronson out of the race occurred shortly after 9 o’clock. Kaser and Ryser were relieving one an- other during a try to 8a|n a lap, inlng at a tremendous pace. ougoltz and Simar were almost behind them, with McFar- land just on the inside. The Frenchmen, who were also alternating, came together with a crash and went down on the track. Waller was at thelr heels and he crashed into the fallen Frenchmen. Turville fol- lowed Waller Into the mix-up and went on top of the other bodles. He was thrown clear of the pile and Into a box among a crowd of spectators. Fisher was the next man and after riding over the others was thrown violently to_the boards. McFar- land and Ryser and Kaser spurted but the referee would not allow their, gain. Turville was picked up bleeding and un- consclous, and with a growing lump on one knee. He was rushed to his tent and examined, He had sustained contusions of the right thigh and many bruises of the hody, as well as the shock. The doctor brought him back to consciousness after i a little, Aronson had a badly cut eye and face | Millstone River. and bruises on the back. Fisher was bat- | tered and shocked. The two Frenchmen escaped better than any of the others, getting only a shaking up. Aronson was declared out of the race at 1 o'clock this mornlng, When Babcock heard that his team mate, Aronson, was sent to the hospi- tal, he declared he would ride twelv hours &nd give Aronson a chance to r cuperate. He kept on his wheel until 1:55 a. m., when he fell exhausted. Gougoltz and Kaser fell on top of him, but none was serfously hurt. The referee ruled that ne loeses should be marked up on account of the accident. Turville returned: to the track at 1 a m.. rode slowly until 1:50 a. ., and then dismounted. He had to be carried to his training room. The score at 2 o’clock: Lape. 1 Elkes and McFarland Plerce nnd McEachern Simar_and Gougoltz. “Purville. and_Gimm. Waller snd Stinso Babcock and Aronson .

SOMERVILLE, N. J.,, Dec. 11.—Charles James, who says he is the youngest brother of the late Jesse James of out- law notoriety, was arrested at Bound Brook Tuesday, charged with robberies on James Donnelly, a trol- ley car conductor on the Middlesex and Somperset traction line, was arrested on the same charge when he stopped his car at Bound Brook at noon. Millstone's Vigilance Society decided to run down the thieves who on Thanksgiv- ing ni_ ¢ stole from its moorings the steam launch owned by George Page, the lawyer, and Charles Vandorf, an en- gineer of the Pennsylvania Raliroad, and took it down the river to a point near Weston, where it was stripped of its en- gine. boiler and propelling machinery. Captain Ben Welsh of the vigilantes called Detective George D. Totten of this place into the case, and these two offi- cers have since been hunting for the thieves. They obtained evidence which led them to search Dnm’\ellg“! home in South Bound Brook. They found in_the fAcor of his barn a conceaied door, which when lifted revealed the engine stolen from the launch stored in a pit which had been dug there. They also found con- cealed in the barn a forty-foot yawl, the Troperty of George Daveys of Weston, which had been stolen from Millstone River several months ago. Donnel and James quickly followed these discoveries. Both voung men have many friends and have heretofore been highly respected in Bound Brook. They first protested their irnocence, but Donnelly broke down and confessed when confronted with the evi- dence agalnst him. — e ENGINEERS PREPARE TO ORGANIZE A CLUB Committee Is Appointed to Draft Prospectus and Secure Aid of Representative Men.
