CHICAGO, April 20.—There is evidently according to reports, has been backed for the American Derby as if “‘Lucky” Bald- win’s horse had already vept under the wire a winner. The report from California is to the effect that the Baldwin stable has been backing the colt in the future books with a vengeance. James O’Leary confirms the report, and says he has laid $22,500 against $1500 on the chances of Cruzados during the past week. Cruzados is quoted at odds of 12 to 1 in O'Leary's winter book, being on even terms with McChesney and Runnells. Abe Frank is still at 7 to 1, and it is reported $1000 has been wagered on his chances at these odds during the past week. The | “bunch™ of money is supposed to have come from Memphis, but George C. Ben- Dett, owner of the colt,(has not been men- tioned in connection With the wagering. Since Abe Frank’s race in the Tennesses Derby there has been less enthusiasm about him.

Meredith pitched splen- first to the last. Oakland fielded in bril- liant style, and batted the ball at pre- cisely the proper moment. Christall passed too many men to first, but the Ponies could not hit him when men were waiting to score. The local field was thoroughly punc- tured at the outset. Walters got a scratch hit to first, and little Mohler sacrificed. Walters easily completed his Jjourney on Bone's fumble of Streib's grounder, Streib taking second. Strefb was there when Shugart let Devereaux's grounder pass him. Mohler's infield sin- ble, Leahy's wild throw and Streib's scratch hit were the cause of another Oakland tally in the third. The Ponles broke out of a walk in the second. Holly led off with a long double to the right 1eld fence, and Delmas scored him with a hot drive to right. In the third Meredith was passed. La: ler sent him up a turn with a single over second. Holly preyed on Christall’s gen- crosity, while a passed ball by Gorton let Meredith in. : It kept on in a sort of see-saw way, Oakland scoring during the third, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth rounds partly by timely hitting and partly by the er- rors their opponents were good enough to make. The Ponies added three more to their list in the fourth, seventh and ninth. Sometimes it looked lnteres!lnF, d and the bunch in both bleachers woul give vent to their pent-up feelings by letting a few war-cries escape, but it was never really dangerous for the sub- urban aine. Dunleavy reeled off a pretty drive for three cushions in the sixth.” It went straight out between McHale and Law- ler. and_brought in auburn Bill Dever- eaux. Holly’s drive looked as good as Dunleavy’s, but the local lad made only two bases on it. Delmas performed in clever style with tne walloper, hitting out a double and a clean single. Bone also had his peepers working to a nicety, get- ting two hits. Lawler made a splendid running catch of McCreedie’s sharp fly in the fifth and neatly doubled up Streib at the first sack. McCreedie's catch of McHale's drive in the ninth was also a fren feat, and pos- sibly shut off a cou{.)e of runs. Delmas exccuted a clever play when he caught Buck Francks stealing third after a sac- rifice during the third trial. The score: SAN FRANCISCO. . R. BH. SB. PO. A. E, McHale, 1. f.

Oakland was leading by a score of 5 to 2, and the Ponies were probably saved from another drubbing. Schmidt was doing slab duty. and Kane oppos hil. Bobby McHale missed the boat, 8o Chimmie Whalen took his place at bat, and, to the wonderment of the crowd, led off with a clean hit past third. { Clay H. Howbacker, in behalf of the rcoters, presented the Oakland team with a box of bats, accompanying his feat with an enthusiastic speech. The men took the sticks and began to poun n a few runs, which delighted the popu- ace immensely. Pete Lohman was given a baby bat decorated with red, white and blue ribbons. A fan remarked that in cage Pete did not land the pennant the cranks would use it in beating a tattoo on his head. An unusually large crowd was in at- tendance. The management presented every one with a rain check. McCreedle made a great catch of a ball that was batted out into 'the right fleld trees. ANGELS TAKE TWO. Defeat Sacramento in Both Morning and Afternoon Game. LOS ANGELES, April 20.—Los Angeles won both games from Sacramento to-day, in the morning by a score of 7 to 2 and in the afternoon by 3 to 2. Jones pitched a steady game in the morning and was glven good support by the flelders, while Doyle’s support was ragged. The afternoon game was close and ex- citing from first to last.

Four Stakes at Union Park Result in Great Sport. The card presented to the patrons of Union Coursing Park yesterday resulted in as fine coursing as has been seen at the grounds in many months. The four stakes offered proved a strong attraction, and, despite the hurtful influence of the streetcar tie-up, were well patronized. A. R. Curtis’ Beacon took first honors | in the Champion stake, beating Homer| Boy pointless in the’ deciding course. The fast blue courser proved easily the class dog of the ctake, and his clever and rapid work in the company of worthy op- ponents came in for favorable comment. Beacon, to reach the final, had to dis- pose of such good ones as A. J. Martin, Dewdrop and Merrimac, and in- each trial took the decision quite handily. Homer Boy, the runner-up, was a strong factor: in the going, add until he met defeat In the course with the Curtis champion was an easy winner trials. In the first round Homer Boy was drawn with America, and ended the course without allowing his opponent to score. Following this he earned the flag from fast Rector, a high-priced candi- Qate for stake honors and a 2 to 1 fa- vorite for the course. The semi-final found Homer Boy on the card agaiast Palo Alto. Geary’s dog ruled choice at 1 to 2. In the run-up he showed much speed over the Boy, and it looked .an easy victory for him. With honors within easy reach, however, the great sprinter evidenced a desire to ease up in his work, and from that point he ran a disappointing course. Homer Boy was quick in taking advantage, and at the finish was on the long end of an 8 tc 6 seore. Harlean Gladys won the open stake, with Roman Athlete runner-up. The wi ner was favorite in all her trials, and her victories were on merit. Roman Ath- lete proved a good investment for &is backers, beating Sofala and Cascade at 5 to 3 and Sir Pasha at 3 to 1. Short- enders made a good showing in the stake, hirteen taking honors from the favor- es. In the Reserve stake Argyle beat Rich Argosy in the final by a score of 5 to 3. The winner was backed off the board Saturday. Menlo Prince annexed the puppy stake, and proved a surprise to the wise ones. He led and beat High Stepper-at 4 to 1, outworked SHevenamon at 5 to 3, and at 5 to 2 won the stake from Otto.
