With his engagement ten days off, he is already in condition for a hard stfuggle. He is never quiet, being Qn the go all the time. Kid Carter is training with him at Sheehan’s Beach Tavern, and they have some lively set-tos. On Friday they had | on skin gloves, such as are used in bag- punching. They had been “shadow box- ing” for some time and then commenced sparring with each other. This sparring became faster and faster, until it devel- oped into a rough-house affair. Both showed the marks of the encounter yes- terday. During the afternoon they put on the big gloves and had it hammer and tongs. When it was all over Carter sald: “If Britt can beat you he is the wonder they claim him to be.” Carter. s too big and too strong for Fitzgerald. The latter will cut out his work with the middle-weight, as he does not want to risk injuring himself. Fitz- Lo 7O gerald weighed 13% pounds yesterday LAHIIIV - o afternoon before going into the gymna- sium. Jimmy Britt is taking the best of care of himself at Larkspur. The chief con- cern of his trainers is to keep him from doing too much work, as he can get to the required weight at short notice. O TI— Draw Color Line on Ball Field. WASHINGTON, April 18.—To-day’s ‘baseball game between Harvard and Georgetown universities was marred by a squabble having its origin in race preju- dlce. Harvard put in a negro, Mathews, | to play shortstop, and in consequence Catcher Apperous and Manager Miller of the Georgetown team, who are Southern- ers, withdrew from the game. There were . | eome mild demonstrations of displeasure Z | at the negro's appearance on the fleld, | but Maihews finally won the crowd by brilliant work in accepting a few chances | that came his way.

H. Pettingill, assoclate judge and a stew- ard of the New California Jockey Club, leaves for New York this morning. Mr. Pettinzill fills the same position with the Jockey Club, and the approaching opening of the season in the East causes his early departure. Judging from his efforts on Antolee, which mare opened up ome of the favorites for the last race, Ivy Powell does not wish to remain in good standing on the turf long. On th2 stretch turn the McCafferty entry was full of running and looked all over a Wwinner, whe Powell deliberately took her back and out ¢ the race. * Bonner is il with an attack of the mumps. which will keep him out of the saddle for some time. —_———————— e =g ANTA ROSA, April 18 .

For the mile handicap Epicure gave away all kinds of weight, and in a drive beat Caesar Young's Watercure a neck, to which horse the three-year-old was conceding twenty-five pounds. Because of his impressive showing against a cheap field on Thursday Peter J was made fa- verite. He led Epicure under sufferance for three-quarters of the distance, then fell back beaten. Buxton rode a paticnt, well-judged race on Epicure from that time on, always looking to hold the older horse safe. Autolight, under Powell's pe- cuuar management, closed strongly, tak- ing show honors. The winner closed at odds of 2% to L The racing opened with a six-furlong sprint, for which Dan Hanlon’s old mare Sly was installed favorite at 4 to 5. She always runs best when brought from be- hind, and while Sheehan got away in front he took the favorite back before a quarter had been covered. Willie See on the 8 to 1 shot Berendos took command in the stretch, and aithough . Sheehan tried to get up with Sly could not do it and was beaten half a length. Jim Gore at 2 to 1 was third. Although Padua, favorite for the two- year-old scramble, was slightly “bucked,” he received good handling, and at the wire downed H. L. Frank half a length. “Link” Jackson on the latter youngster passed Quaker Girl when straightered away for the stand and looked all over a | OAKLAND RACETRACK, Saturday, April 1. winner. While he swerved noticeably un- der punishment from Powell, Padua re- sponded gamely, receiving the verdict. Frawley on Dr. Rowell took third place. Most of the smart money went in on Hainault to win the six and a half furlong sprint. He finished third. Mexicanna made all the running to within a furlong from the wire, where she was collared and disposed of handily by Warte Nicht, a 7 to 1 chance, ridden by “Big Bill” { Knapp. Ignacio scored in the closing mile and fifty yard number. The chestnut horse was played from threes down to 9 to 5, and under Buxton's urgi came from last position and owned Oriana less than a length. Antolee received a disgraceful ride. . ——————— _We have all the latest novelties in play- ing cards (forty-eight backs to choose from), poker chips, counters, dice, domi- noes, chessmen ahd the cheapest line of retty tally cards and prizes in the city. horn.

The destruction of her standing gear was almost complete. Everything above deck must be renewed. The wrecking crew ls not trying to save much, the object belng to clear away the wreckage as quickly as possible. The gaff is badly dented, but may be repaired, the boom is practically uninjured, the topsail yards are useless and the salls are ruined. Lloyd's agent inspected the damage to- day. No officfal estimate of the loss is available, but it is thought $25000 will cover everything. This, however, is large- 1y speculation. Sir Thomas Lipton is stiff and sore from yesterday’s experience. He is recovering from the shock caused by the death ot Collier, the man who was drowned yester- day at the time of the accident. Shamrock I is to return to the Clyde, but the date of her departure is not fixed. Thanks to the smooth water, Shamrock II's mast was secured by evening and towed to the harbor. Designer Fife and Mr. Ward will inspect the yacht to-mor- row and decide if she can be repafred. The yacht will leave for Southampton to- morrow. Sir Thomas Lipton has recelved a ca- blegram from Vice Commodore Bourne of the New York Yacht Club, offering to postpone the races. A conference was held between Sir Thomas, Mr. Fife, Mr. Ward, Colonel Sharman Crawford, vice commo- dore of the Royal Ulster Yacht Club; Captain Wringe and Captain Bevis, and to-night Sir Thomas sent his reply. It is understood he has declined the exten- sion offered. SYMPATHY FOR LIPTON. Telegrams expressing sympathy con- tinue to be received from distinguished persons in America and England. One is from the Duke of Argyle, and one from the Columbia Yacht Club. Designer Fife and Mr. Ward, a partner of Denny Bros., builders of the challen- ger, arrived here to-day and Inspected Shamrock IIL. The yacht will be taken to Southampton, docked, surveyed and fitted -with a jury mast. She will then be towed to the Clyde for repairs. The Mayor of Weymouth visited Sir Thomas on the Erin to-day. Thanking the Mayor for the sympathy shown by the city, Sir Thomas said Shamrock III would be back at Weymouth in a few weeks and would resume her trials. LONDON, April 18.—All the dally papers express their regrets in editorials this morning at the misfortune which pursues Sir Thomas Lipton's courageous attempts to lift the America’s cup. Several papers for the first time admit that high hopes were entertained of his success and trust breakages occur in the American boats.” The Standard fears Sir Thomas Lipton's chances, at no time good, 8w less now than ever. ESTIMATE OF CHALLENGER. The Field publishes an e*haustive analysis of the America’s cup challenger. Assuming that Shamrock I is in tie same trim as in 191, the paper conside's that Shamrock III could sllow Shamlock I about fifteen to eighteen seconds per mile. If she can carry her sall, continuet the Fleld, the challenger is likely to prove a slippery customer. Should she fail in ‘he cup races it will probably be because Herreshoff has made some great advances in the speed of his boat on a reach. It would not be easy to design a more theory it should not be impossible to de- sign & considerably faster boat for reach- ing or running. Thus, if the Rellance proved to be an enlarged SBakantula or Marjory the chances are she will show weatherly qualities of the finer type pos- sessed by Bhamrock III or tempts, concludes the Field, to construct enlarged Sakantulas, however, have been attended with little success. TRIAL SPIN FOR RELIANCE. BRISTOL, April 18.—With the Rellance more than half rigged and the Constitu- tion on her way to New London to com- plete final preparations for her trial spin, there is a prospect that these two yachts may come together for a short bout off Newport a week from to-day. The main boom of the Rellance was slung this forenocon and Rigger Billman sald to-night he expected to finish by Tuesday. The bending of the salls on the Reliance will occupy only a few hours and the crew will be given two or three days’ practice hoisting sails. The boat will be practically ready for her builder’s trial on the 25th. As the breezes at this time of the year are usually quite strong from the west and northwest, the yacht can be sent in a few hours. bright and early this morning, and after several hours' practice in holsting and lowering the mainsails the two headsails were sent up, the mainsail furled and the yacht started in tow of a tug for New London, where she will have her under- body cleaned and burnished. The ‘two headsails were used to steady her in the run down the bay. It is ex- pected she will be overhauled at New London on Monday and will be back in Newport about where she will remain for trial spins un- til the first scheduled race of the ninety- footers on May 21 at Glencove, L.
