LONG DRIVE ENDS IN A NOGE FINTH Hawthorne Judges Give Hargis Verdict Over Giassful — Stand’s Decision in a Close Contest Is Not Well Recsived. e Epectal Dispatch to The Call. / CHICAGO, Aug. 18.—There was but one good race at Hawthorne to-day—that be- | tween Hargis and Glassful in the third event, a handicap at mile. It was strictly a two-horse race, the other start- ers never having a chance. From the head of the stretch to the wire the pair had a desperate tussle; first one and then the other was in front, and when the wire was reached the public had to wait dges to decide the winner.

Win- nshall's ch. g. by 101, | | SHAMROCK Il GETS TIME ALLOWANCE FROM THE YANKEE CRAFT DEFENDER Irish Yacht’s Sail Area Is Two Thousand Square Feet Less Than That of the American Boat, Although She Is Longer On Water Line—-First International Contest Will P EW YORK, Aug. 18—The Re- llance and the Shamrock III were measured to-day in the Erie basin by C. E. Mower, the official measurer of the New ht Club. As the result of his surements and calculations it was an- York Y: mea | nounced to-night that the Reliance would w | allow the challenger 1 minute and 45 sec- onds over thirty-mile course. It was found that the Shamrock III was slightly longer on the water line than the Ameri- a can boat. but the latter proved to have nearly 2000 square feet more of sail area than the challenger. It was this enor- mous sail spread that taxed the Amerl- vil cement of the time allow- vor of the challenger caused can boat so h The anno ance in little surprise at the yacht club, as it was the general belief that the Reliance | would prove considerably larger all around taan her opponent. Following are the officlal figures: Reliance. Shamrock I11. ‘Water line 89.66 feet. R9.81 feet. Base 11 201.75 feet. re side of mast .. 84.29 feet Spinnaker boom feet. Main gaff teet.

Men on board 64 56 The Reliance. and Shamrock swung laz- fly at thefr moorings inside Sandy Hook to-night, ready for the International con- test for the America's cup, the first race of which will be sailed on ThWsday. The Shamrock 1IT merely returned to her old moorings, the Reliance coming here for the first ‘time. The day was one of ex- ceeding interest to all directly Interested in the international race, being devoted to the official measuring and final groom- ings of both vachts. The cleaning of the under bodies of both was completed this morning, and Charles D. Mower, the offi- cial measurer of the New York Yacht Club, stretched his steel tape from truck to deck and from the end of the bowsprit to the extreme point of the after over- heng of both racers. As one result about eight inches of the spinnaker boom of the Shamrock III was sawed off, owing to the fact that it was estiméted to be that much longer than the base of the forward triangle, which covers the head salls of the yacht, which would mean penalization if allowed to stand. Sir Thomas Lipton, as well as Mr. Iselin and Designer Herreshoff and Designer Fife, were Interested spectators of the work of Mr. Mower. Designer Fife evidently desired that the Shamrock III should be measured while down by the stern as much as possible, for everything mov- able, even to the jib sheet leader blocks, was moved and stowed amidships. The measuring was completed at 4:45 o'clock and both yachts were warped out of the basin. ATter supper for the crews the tug Guid- ing Star took the Reliance In tow, while the English tug Cruiser performed the same service for the Shamrock III, both the yachts arriving at Sandy Hook at about sundown.

NEW SPEEDWAY 5 STAKED 0UT Will Be a Three-Quarter Mile Affair as Out- lined. Plans are well advanced for the new speed track, polo fleld and athletic grounds in Golden Gate Park. Superin- tendent McLaren has staked out the ground and finds he has room for a three-quarter mile course instead of a half mile as at first supposed. The trotting track will be sixty feet wide. Inside this and six feet below it will be a track for athletes. Inside this again will be the polo fleld, of which much is expected. Stabling will be pro- vided among the trees for the horses between heats. The grounds will be in the center of a natural amphitheater and the contests can be viewed by a large number of peo- ple. Seats will be provided on sloping banks. The street cars will run within a short walk of the grounds. The members of Golden Gate Park Driving Assoclation met last night in the Palace Hotel and decided upon the pro- gramme for their meeting at Tanforan track on Admission Day. The races are all match affairs, the owners subscribing $25 each and the assoclation adding a purse. One race will be for a valuable cup, between Edward Algeltinger'’s Dolo- dor and J. Plageman's General Vallejo. The other races are as follows: First race—A. F. Jacobs' Mack, J. Doran's Della McCarthy, J. O'Kane's Sandow and J. M. Eva's Ethel H. Second race—M. M. Donnelly’s Lafay- ette, J. de la Montanya’s Ivy and V. Verelhac's Victor. Third race—M. M. Donnelly’s Old Guy, Edward Algeltinger's Fred T., Captain Batchelder's Crescent and D. Mizner's Miss Washington. The cars of the San Mateo electric line Will run to the track every five minutes. ————————— Western Girl Makes Top Score. CHICAGO, August 18.—Miss Bessle An- thony, Western champion, turned in a 93 card in the qualifying round of the eighth annual women's tournament of the Onwentsia Club, which started to-day. This was the best score of the fifty-four who made the eighteen-hole journey, and accordingly the champion was given the medal for the lowest score. P FIGHTERS LEAVE FOR THE EAST Corbett and His Party Start To-Day for Chicago. James J. Corbett and his party will leave for the East this morning. With him will be Mrs. Corbett, Yank Kenny, Professor Thomas Dare and John Me- Kenzie. They will make their first stop at Chicago. Corbett had several con- ferences with Jeffries recently and it is probable the heavywelights will be seen in some exhibition bouts-in the East. When bidding Jeffries good-by yester- day Corbett sald: “T'll'be a big booster for you in the East, Jim."” Jeffries is still undecided as to his movements. Chalk Roberts, John Brink and other Los Angeles. friends of the champion are going south to-morrow and he may accompany them. Colonel Brady may alsb be of the party. Harry GCorbett, accompanied by his brother Tom and some others, leave shortly for a month's horseback trip through Lake and other northern coun- ties. From present appearances Benny Yan- ger will not be able to meet Hanlon here next month. In this event an effort will be made to have either Britt or Herrera take his place. There is a slight differ- ence in weight between Hanlon and Britt which mav be reconciled. Herrera and Hanlon are about of the same welght. Herrera has come up suddenly during the past year. Six of his recent fights aver- aged only ‘three rounds each. Jack Johnson, the colored heavyweight, is in town looking for trouble in the person of Jeffries. Should the latter wipe out the color line Johnson will probably be sorry he spoke. The Rellance Athletic Club of Oakland will resume its regular monthly boxing nights this month. The attraction secured by Matchmaker George Mahoney for the first show is Toby Irwin and Billy Otts, who are signed to box fifteen rounds next Tuesday evening. There has been no box- ing in Oakland since last March. Pre- liminary to.the main event Fred Otts, a brother of Billy Otts, will try conclusions with Danny Sulllvan, whose victory over Fred Landers, at the Neil-Forbes boui, won him niany friends. Young McCon- nell of the West Oakland Club and Jim Smith will box six rounds SPORTS OF THE RACETRACK, THE WATER AND THE BASEBALL FIELD RAINLAND RUNS MEDIOCAE RAGE Heavily Backed Colt Finishes With the Also Rans.
