MORRIS PARK, May 18.—Thor- oughbreds owned by H. K. Knapp, one of the stewards of the Jockey Club, who runs his horses in the name of the Oneck stable, won three times to-day and ran second on another oc- casion. - Rob Roy was the first to win for Knapp. Under Hildebrand’s vigorous riding this son of Sir Walter landed. There were many spectators who thought Carmack, who rode Marjo- ram, took things too easy and did not realize he was losing until too late. Thanks to George Odom’s superior strength over the average jockey, Akela, his mount in the fourth event, | won that also for Knapp. The horse, ! enormous stride into full swing, left He was compelled to! run around his fleld and then came on down the incline in close pursuit of the swerving Keynote, which, for a‘ wonder, had made the running. Ar!er] Akela came Fort Plain and Stonewall, | 12 and these three made the hottest fin- | ish of the day, Akela winning by a small margin. In the last race Gold Dome exhibit- ed far more life than in his previous effort and the rail birds were prepared to see him run well. He was beaten only by the Oneck stable’'s Phaon, a strapping son of Fonso, upon which Burns had the mount. Summary: | FIRST RACE—The Eclipse course, three- year-olds_and upward, handicap. Betting.

CHICAGO, May 18.—Despite a poor card, a good sized crowd witnessed the races at Worth track this afternoon. Five of the races on the card were selling affairs. Floral King, at even money, was made favorite in the fourth race, the feature event of the day, and barely got the verdict by a nose from Big Ben, the 5 to 1 third choice. It was a desperate finish and Big Ben would have won in another stride. Beau Ormonde, second choice 2t 8 to 5, was third, five lengths back. Only two favorites won.

With the baseball game of yvesterday the entire complexion of the Pacific Coast League pennant race was alter- ed, Oakland going into first place and Seattle jumping from fourth to sec- ond position, while Tacoma dropped two holes and Los Angeles one. This afternoon may see another complete switch. as a game won or lost by any, of the four leaders will cause another eruption in the percentage table. For well-balanced teams and closeness of the contestants the race has never been equaled or even approached in the West. Portland is the only team with no chance to win the flag for the first half of the playing season. San Francisco is not distanced by any means and with a couple of good weeks against Portland may pull up on even terms with the leaders or at least within striking distance for the run home. Oakland is crippled by the tem- porary loss of Lohman's services, but Jimmy Byrnes makes a more accept- able change catcher than did Boet- tiger. Lohman will probably bench young Streib and alternate Moskiman and Graham in the outfield now that he is again in front. Manager Harris may make one or two changes in his team when it re- turns from the north on Tuesday, but will do nothing. without . consulting Captain Irwin. Los Angeles will prob- ably let one man go when Toman re- covers and Seattle will fight it out to the end with'the same line-up. —_— Fishermen Fill Their Baskets. + W. L. Johnstone, assistant passen- ger agent of the Pacific Mail Company, in company with Howard Black Jr. found rare sport on.Sunday in the pools and riffles of Purissima Creek and each fisherman brought home a well filled basket.

Clowry notified | the general superintendents of the com- | pany at New York, Chicago, Atlanta| and San Francisco that to-day the col- TUnion Telegraph Company of horse- race reports would be dIlconthu!d’ forthwith. The text of the notice to| the superintendents reads as follows: | “It has been decided to discontinue forthwith the collection and distribu- tion by this company of horse-race re- ports. You will please act accordingly. Acknowledged receipt. (Signed) “ROBERT C. CLOWRY, “President and General Manager." The effect of this order is far-reach- ing and will result in the discontinu- ance of what has been called the racing | department of the Western Union Com- pany. This department has collected and distributed racing news from the varfous tracks in the country to sub- scribers. Hereafter the company will transmit only such messages concern- | ing races as are regularly filed with it for transmission. For the present Western Union of- fices, as has been the habit In the past, will be maintained at race tracks for the transmission of press dispatches |1 and privaté messages, but these offices may be discontinued later. The executive committee of the West- ern Union had a brief meeting to-day, at which were present Chauncey M. Depew, Morris K. Jessup, Russell Sage, Samuel Sloan and Jacob H. Schiff. President Clowry reported his action and the executive committee approved it. The New York Telephone Company, which is also accused of “aiding and abetting” the services to poolrooms, advised Police Commissioner McAdoo to-day that it would at once remove the telephone wires from the East Forty-second-street house, which was raided yesterday. This is said to have been thle headquarters or “‘central’ of | a chain of poolrooms. Further, the company promised to see that both wires and instruments are taken out of the subsidiary places—poolrooms | which received accounts of the racing from this “central.” | etnis # TRIMR BIG BOOKMAKERS PLEASED. Believe Aetion of Western Union Will Improve Their Business in Chicago. CHICAGO, May 18.—The gamblers re- ceived another “body blow” to-day when the Western Union Telegraph Company withdrew its racetrack ser- vice forthwith. By some chance the or- der became known to the big men of the fraternity two days ago. In conse- quence preparations had been made to meet {it. Instead of being a fatal blow the order proved a source of re- joicing to the members of the so-called “trust” in that it put the small fry out bookmakers with large and other powerful resources. Commissioners were started from Chicago to the racetracks yesterday in anticipation of the step taken by the telegraph company in discontinuing racetrack information so far as book- makers, saloons and sporting head- quarters are concerned. These commis- sioners were delegated to arrange for a special private service to go into imme- diate effect. The big rooms were open as usual to-day and expect to do busi- ness on a larger scale to-morrow. The gamblers expect the enforced elimina- tion of competition from saloon-keep- ers, cigar dealers, barbers, billiard halls and similar gathering places will provide a harvest for them, SRR N R POOLROOMS STILL OPEN. capital Sausalito Proprietors Get Eastern Results From Private Agencies.

H. Stevens' gelding John Boggs won the first event handily. S. J. Jones’ Misty's Pride won the second easily, as did Priestiike the'third race. M. A. Stephenson's mare Homage ran a good race in the fourth number, going from last place at start to first at the wire. She was 15 to 1 in the bet- ting. The fifth and sixth races were closely contested. Nullah took the fifth, well ridden by George Buliman, the brother of Jockey John Bullman. Harry Stover’s Illowaho took the sixth, heading the field at the stretch turn and leading to the wire. The news of the pool-room trouble was received with rejoicing by the Jockey Club As- sociation and by the bookies. Prepa- rations are being made to accommodate the greater attendance expected at the track. There has been some talk of extending the meet.

The proprietors were equal to the oc- casion and had the results of the races telegraphed them from the East by private agencies. The change meant a delay in the news of about fifteen min- utes. Joseph Harvey, who is the head of the largest poolroom in Sausalito, stated last evening that he had falled to learn anything definite from the ‘r(—presenmlhes of the telegraph com- pany relative to the future stand of the company, but he added that he and others identified with the poolrooms were hopeful of entering into some ar- rangement with the Western Uhion for a resumption of the special service. Failing in this plan it is the intention of the poolroom men to employ agents at all the race tracks and have them telegraph the race results to the rooms on this coast. An association of pool- room men throughout the country, the main purpose of which would be the securing of a quick service by wire from the tracks to the different con- cerns, was also suggested by several of the gamblers as a possible outcome of the action of the telegraph company. So far nome of the local poolrooms have closed, and their proprietors, the majority of whom run cigar stores, claim the withdrawal of the telegraph service will not affect their business, for the major portion of them depend entirely on the results of the races as published the following day and pay unexpected, it did not materially affect! off at the orices at which the horses the business at Sausalito yesterday. were quoted on going to the post.
