They were down thi minutes in open territory. Both dogs started at a good clip, but Joe did | not show the speed of last season and Jet down considerably before the heat | was over. Jay M proved a fast and stylish worker and ran well to the end of the race. No bird work was per- formed by either, although a few birds had been driven to the weeds and af- forded the dogs limited opportunities on game. J. E. Terry's English setter dog Kil- garif, handled by Coutts, and Van Ars- dale’s English setter dog Oakley's Pride, handled by Babcock, were the mext brace to run. and were put down | after the birds had been driven to cover in a corn field, where they could show their speed and range. Kilgarif showed to advantage here, making several clever casts. Oakley also ranged out well, though not the equal of his brace- mate in this respect. Swinging back | these respects. to the corn field, the dogs were sent | Stockdale Kennel's te find, and it was not long before Babeock called “Point” for Oakley and | flushed the bird. Kilgarif next made & false point and followed with a point which he established just as the !)h’t:lI flushed wild. Next he snapped to a point on & single and was steady to flush and shot. Oakley concluded the bird work with & snappy point, after which the dogs were taken up. Condi- tions in this heat were bad, as the birds would not lie to the dogs and flushed | along a ditch bank and jumped into a pretty point on a bevy. He was 2 trifle unsteady to shot, but the find was a meritorious one. Some ! of the birds took to cover in weeds on the other side of the fence and in the stubble, but the dogs failed to estab- lish any further points., Policy pointed several times, but no could be flushed to her stands.

The \nm race, at one mile, was won by Ultruda, the 9 to & favorite. Frank | Plerce was second and Schwarzwald third.

Montana Peeress was Ileeond and Nanon third. Jim Gore was played for a killing, but finished !last. A bad start ruined Buccleuth’'s chances. The fourth number, a seven fur: long handicap, was won by Warte Nicht, the favorite. Princess Tulane was second and Orsina third. The fifth event went to the odds-on favorite, Fortunatus, second and Pilot third. Pat Bulger, at 1 to 3, won the last race by a dozen lengths. Foncasta was second and Lady Usk third. E. Walsh and J.

Hxs, reason was that the building would | not accommodate the people who want- 1 ed to see the fight. In addition he said ‘ it would put the men from this city to | too great an inconvenience to reach the | scene of the fight, and when they were there he doubted if ticket holders could get the seats for which they paid, ow- IIng'lo the lack of accommodations (Britt had no fault to find with the club’s bid, saying it was a liberal one. | The architect’s plans show 4317 seats | in the pavilion, aithough the club man- | | agers claim that 5100 people can be ac- | | commodated. Only 1934 people wit-| | nessed the Britt-Canole fight and yet ! the pavilion had a crowded appear- .ance. The story of why the fight went to the Colma Club on Monday was com- mon gossip Igst night at the sporting | resorts. From first to last Young Cor- bett has felt that he, as the champion featherweight, was a great drawing card and, as such, was entitled to a | bonus for affixing his name to a con- tract with any club. Morris Levy al lowed him 7l per cent of the gross re | ceipts for signing to fight Hanlon be fore the Hayes Valley Club. bonus amounted to $1600. QUARREL OVER BONUS. Britt knew of Corbett's demands and | gave the promoters to understand that ke considered himself as great a draw- ing card as Corbett. The Californian did not want a bonus, but he main- | tained that Corbett was not entitled to one. The club managers took this view | 401' the case and would not allow the | | featherweight a bonus. In a moment of pique Corbett accept- | ed the Colma offer, which was a lib- eral one, and Britt fell in with his | views. The selection of Colma was a shock to the men who attend all the important fights. Some of this com- ment reached Britt’s ears. It did not have much effect on him, however, un- til he went to Colma Tuesday night and took a survey of the place. This had its effect and he decided he would not fight there. On Monday night Mr. Brandon, the sportsmanlike backer of the Colma Club, deposited a $1000 check. He in- creased this to $15,000 yesterday after- | noon and the money was placed in bank to the credit of Eddie Graney, the stake holder. | When they met at Harry Corbett's last night, while it was understood Young Corbett would gladly get out of the Colma affair, he was ready to sign the articles of agreement. Britt gave his ultimatum and the Colma Club people had no redress. Jim Neil said | they had purchased all the chairs from the old Tivoli to put in the Colma pa- vilion and had gone to. other expense. ONLY TWO CLUBS WILL BID. Negotiations for a fight must now begin all over again. Young Corbett has offev- to fight Dave Sullivan at Colma. S:livan lost to McGovern in seventeen rounds and beat Briggs on Tuesday night. The latter gave Mc- Govern a great battle. Alex Greggains is out of the bidding, as he has matched Hugo Kelly of Chi- cago with Billy Woods for the 29th of this. month. Kelly fought a draw with Jack O’'Brien recently. This leaves only two bidders for the fight—the Yosemite Club and Hayes Valley Club. The former will prob- ably have the February permit and the latter the one for March. The box- ers have already expressed a preference for March and the play may fall to Morris Levy. Young Corbett said last night he would cccept a theatrical engagement if he did not make a match before the end of this we-~"- —_———— NEW ORLEANS RACE RESULTS.
