ST LOUIS, June 2.—The getaway at the Fair Grounds was marked by one of the most threatening demonstrations ever witnessed on a racetrack in this city. The trouble was caused by the unsatisfactory running in the fifth ‘race, in which Varro, Chappaqua and Peaceful were figured as the principal contenders. Varro was made a redhot favorite at 18 to 10, with Chap- paqua well backed at 14 to 6. Three to one was chalked up against Peaceful Starter Bruen shocked the backers of Varro and Chappaqua by letting Peace- ful off with a flying start, not dropping his flag until that horse was beyond the time flag. The crowd yelled in derision as Peaceful opened up a big gap. The other contenders never had the ghost of a chance to win. Peaceful led into the stretch by eight lenglhs and won, pulled up, by half that distance from. Varro. Hundreds of angry men surrounded the Judges' stand, demanding that Peaceful be set back, and crying, “Thieves!’ “Robbers and other like terms, while bisres could be heard throughout the grounds. Peaceful is owned by C. J. Cella, a brother of one of the proprietors of the racetrack, and this fact was strong- ly commented on. Racing will be re- sumed at Delmar Monday.

TWALLA WALLA, June 20.—The seven- teenth annual tournament of the Sports- man's Assoclation of the Northwest closed to-day with the shooting of the twenty-five live bird event. There were fifteen entries in this contest, and - first money was won by Denham of Tacoma with twenty-four dead birds. W. F. Sheard of Tacoma and T. B.

EXCITING MOMENTS IN YESTERDAY'S BALL GAME AT RECREATION PARK. UMPIRE TYLER, PREVIOUS TO BEING DEPOSED, ORDERED CAPTAINS DEVEREAUX AND PABST OFF THE FIELD FOR DOUBTING HALF — + % HE Germans plucked victory out of a certain defeat in the ninth inning yesterday by. alighting on “Sapho” Harper's curves for five bumps. The Legislators had a lead of two runs up to this period of the game and a roseate hue showed for the Senators. A close decision placed Mr. Ev~ ans on first in this inning and a base on balls for Croli gave the locals the start they needed. With hope in their breasts they went to bat and every man tore off a single until the score was 9 to 5. Then the excitement subsided. It was the slowest game that was ever played on the home grounds. ‘“Sapho” Harper was as slow as the proverbial “ice wagon.” He tired every one but himself, as he rested between pitches. The pic- ture of grace as he sent the ball over in true Delsarte style forced the crowd to yawn and walt in the hot sun for some- thing to happen. That something occur- red in the ninth and Mr. Harper had a dizzy time. Umpire Tyler's lamps were either cross- ed yesterday or they were obscured by “Old Sol's” beams. His decisions were something awful at times, and when the spectators were not having a hand in tell- ing him so both Pabst and Devereaux took it upon themselves, with the usual result. Pabst was fined $5 and then an- other $5, until his saiary looked like 30 s. Devereaux suffered worse humilia- In the ninth he was not only fined $ but was escorted off the field by a po- liceman, He had the hardihood of talking back to the umpire. Evans lost and won the game. In the early part of the trouble he gave 8o many bases on balls that it looked as if Sacra- mento would have a walk around. He settled down, however, and pitched even ball, keeping' the hits well scattered. He came to bat five times and batted safely thrice and made the circuit three times, something unusual for a pitcher. He re- tired in the ninth at Uncle Hank's sug- gestion and Tburg pitched the last inning in_his usual clever style. Sacramento played in hard luck and the sympathy of the crowd was with them. But svmpathy does not win in_baseball and it remains to be seen whether they that he was given his release after yes- terday's game. Tyler was conscientious in his umpiring and tried to give just de- cisions, but his inexperience and faulty “orb” 'brought him into disrepute with the spectators. It is thought that Rube will be the right man in the right place. He has umpired many games, is an old- time ball player and in the *old days” was idolized by the bleachers. Rube will certainly be given an ovation when he vells “play bali” to-day The score of Saturday’'s gante: SAN FRANCISCO. AB. R. BH. SB. PO. A.E. croll, ..

Notes of the Game. | the 3 instruct the members of their respective teams to go to bat with more ginger the game would be faster and the spectators would enjoy it more. Roy Evans had no control yesterday. He walked six In two innings. He redeemed him- self in the third by rapping out a two-bagger to_the left field fence. Pabst was given the ‘“high sign'’g by Tyler and the ‘‘fans’ knew the captain was out one *“V."" He lost another fiver in theWminth. Schwartz and Pabst make double Steals very cleverly. It took one hour to play four innings yester- day. The day was sultry and the players seemed to be in a lazy mood. Croll ‘and Schwertz were struck out in suc- cession by Harper. ‘‘Sapho” also scalped Pabst, and the ‘‘fans” howled in merry glee. Croll went into the game with a stiff neck, but it did not prevent him from taking many in_center garden.

On Thursday his work was faultless “and the victory virtually belonged to_him. Two hours and.a half is too long for a_game. The managers of both teams should feed their players on ginger. Five of the six errors in Thursday's game were on fly balls.

EOE 31 @Ftivriedeofoolriorirodmidends el B e e O 0 @ FOURNIER, AT WHIRLWIND SPEED, WINS THE GREAT AUTOMOBILE RACE BERLIN, June 2).—The arrival here of the Paris-Berlin racing motors, M, Four- nier the winner, was generally recognized as the great sporting event of the season. As evidence of this from 8 o'clock in the morning the high road from Spandau to the west end was thiekly lined with peo- ple. From Berlin thousands of bicyclists and automobllists and many of the most fashionable turnouts .tofled up the hill leading from Cbharlottenburg to the west end suburb, about six miles from Berlin proper. There, in Germany's largest trot- ting park, the wictorlous participants in the Paris-Berlin race arrived one by one before a fashionable, sport-loving assem- blage of 10,000 persons, by Stands decorated with flags and bunt- ing, French, German and Belgian colors intertwined, were erected at the goal where the judges, officers of the automo- dlle clubs of France, Germany, Austria and Belgium, and distinguished guests were walting. The military bands played inspiring music. Among the interested spectators present were Duke Frederick of Mecklenburg, the Prince and Princess of Pless, nee Cornwallis-West; the old Prince of Pless, head of the house; the rrince of Thurn and Taxis; Count Bero- lingen, with his American wife and his daughter, who last season was the reign- ing belle of the Berlin and Stuttgart courts; Count von Wedel, Major von Ez- beck, the Duke of Ratibon, Commercial Councillor Friedland, Count von Strach- witz, Captain von der Planitz, General von Becker, Count de Talleyrand, Baron von Kuhimann, the Chevalier de Stern, who came to witness the finish for the Austro-Hungarian Automobile Club in his own autocar from Budapest direct, and Herr von Imptsch. ‘When M. Becker arrived in a light voiturette at about 8:40 a. m. as the first of the tourist party there was much cheering. Among the autocars sent ahead was Baron de Zuylen's seventy-horsepow- er vehicle, with seven seats, which excited considerable interest. Hundreds of army officers in bright uniforms_enlivened the scene, as did crowds of ladies in elegant light costumes. The weather was fair but hot. A speclal nl-f. au and post- office were provide b)?hm% authorities for b ! / the travelers and others, There was con- siderable amusement when Robert Kat- zenstein of Frankfort-on-the-Main came in with his autecar running backward, having made thirty kilometers frem Pots- dam in that manner owing to his vehlele's machinery being out of order. Among the tourists who arrived from Paris was Baron de Rothschild, who traveled under the pseudonym of “Dr. Pascal.” From 9 a. m. until nearly noon there was a te- dious walt after the first arrival. Among the dispatches received from Hanover by the ‘Automobile Club officers was' one which anounced the start of only fifty- one out of the seventy-three motors which had_arrived there yesterday. The dusty condition of the roads accounted to some extent for the delay in the arrival of the racers here. Fournier was first seen at a great distance In a thick cloud of dust, approaching the goal like a whirlwind. The enormous crowd outside and inside the park began cheering wildly, and at the same time the bands struck up “The Marseillaise,” while all the French people present waved small tri-colored flags, and as Fournier halted before the goal an im- mense wreath of laurel, decorated with ribbons of the German and Frénch colors. and inscribed in German with the word “Victory,” was handed to him. Then Fournier completed the circuit of the track and left his autocar, the bands,play- 1 Sousa marches. The victor was then taken hold of by a score of lusty young French and German athletes, who lifted him upon their shoulders and carried him :Sé}ss the fleld to the main stand. He ““The plans adopted for finding the roads were faultless and our reception every- where was enthusiastic, more so in Ger- many than in France. But the roads in Germany are decidedly worse than in France. They were good to Montjole. Thence to Muenster they were execrable. To Dusseldorf they were good. Thence to Bielefeld they were awful. With the alr thick with soot and smoke, we looked like chimney uweefiu. It {s owing to these con- ditions that the trip has not beaten the Bordeaux-Paris race.” Soon tha racers began coming in fast. The first five were Frenchmen, but every time the sn.gne deep-throated hurrah went HPom b S nouian. g o cartied tn tub) ul of en - man and French sportsmen. M :h- ar- o rivals comnlained of the heat, dust and poot' cuality of the roads. After the lapse of several hours, during Which abatt a score of motor cars ar- rived, the motors were formed into a lang line, and with the club members and a cortege of carrlages the whole procession wended fts way te the city, through streets packed with sightsesrs, passing the length of the Thiergarten, through the Brandenburg gate and then across Unter den Linden, to the.automobile ex- position and the Gardes du Corps bar- racks. The motorists were heartily cheered along the route. The distribution of prizes will take place to-morrow. There will be a banquet to- night at the Kaiserhof.

Emperor William Has Hard Luck Until He Guides the Iduna. BERLIN, June 29.—In the complete ab- sence of political topics of interest this week the Kiel regatta attracted unusual attention. To everybody's great surprise the best results were achieved by Germa internatiopal-built yachts. The Emperor Willlam prize for instance was won by a vacht which uantil this competition had salled only of Lake Wannsee, near Ber- lin. Several French vachts participated. Two American yachts which were in the es took no prize. T must be remarked that Emperor Willlam had hard luck all the week tll! he won the first prize with the Empress’ yacht, the Iduna, in the race for special classes. But the Iduna is English bullt, whereas her competitors, Samoa I and the Samoca II, were built in Germany. The Emperor steered the latter in_the oor showing. The Em- eror's yacht, the Meteor, also turned out Padly. During the first haif of the re- gatta season, however, the yachts were almost yithout wind, and many of the boats were becalmed for hours.” Yester- day brought a spanking breeze for the Kiel to Eckernfaerde race. The Iduna, having been reconstructed with the main idea of making her a safe boat in rough weather, gave the Emperor a great ad- vantage over the other yachts. The Iduna made forty knots in three hours and nine minutes. The vacht is now considered so safe that the Empress has decided to take a cruise in her shortly on the Baltic with her younger children. While the Emperor's newest German and English built yachts proved_ disap- pointing, Admiral = Koestner's Komet, which is the Emperor's former yacht Me- teor rechristened, took the largest num. ber of prizes—two firsts and two secon The Cologne Gazette referring to_ the Emperor’'s order for an American built yacht explains in an apologizing manner | that his Majesty has expressed the opin- ion that the Americans were far ahead of the British and Germans in yacht building.

Potter made ancient amateur records. Driven by Mr. Potter, Primrose paced an exhibition mile in 2:10 flat, and Sweet Marie sent her value up by trotting two mile heats In 2:14.
