I Graziallo Captures the Bermuda Han- dicap. } Wexford a Surprise in the Mile Selling Fixture. BY FRED E. MULHOLLAND. ‘With the three add¢d starters, not one of which cut any figure, eleven carefully | groomed young three-year-old misses started for the Callfornia Oaks, over one and a sixteenth miles, yesterday at Oak- land. Tenordale, piloted by Dugan and coupled with Queen Rec as the Clifford entry, landed the $2000 prize. It proved a popular victory, as the entry enjoyed first call in the betting. At the heels of the winner followed Silver Wedding and Lacene, two visitors from Ascot Park, whose admirers lost a world of coin. Tenordale was slow to begin, as usual, and for a time ft looked as if Swain on Lacene would win. But Swain grew tired before his mount did, and the last furlong Tenordale, under perfect handling, took the leai, winning easily from Silver Wedding. Lacene was third. The time, 1:48%, marked an or- dinary performance. BIG CROWD VIEWS RACING. Delightful, summery Wweather attracted an especlally big Saturday throng. Favor- ites were in good fettle, capturing four races. If Tawasentha were not a wonderfully quick breaker from the barrier she would have béen beaten for the two-year-old balf-mile dash. A 17 to 20 favorite, the Oakland stable’s filly beat her company away, and slowing down toward the end only led Pimkim. out the width of a tur- key sandwich, in :48%. Grace G ran third. | Walter Jennings scratched Isolation from the second race to start her for the Oaks, and this left Forerunner to be in- stalled favorite. L. Willlams rode the brown horse, and after leading most of the route he won easily from Ralbert, & 6 to 1 chance, ridden by E. Walsh. Lily Golding took the show from Sterling Tow- ers. 1f Williams on Byronerdale, favorite for the mile and a quarter selling rum, had not been pocketed for an eighth of & mile after making the far turn the first choice might have won. Byronerdale made a good run through the stretch, only to be taken into camp by Nine Spot, a 4 to 1 second choice, well handled by B. Walsh. Expedient, at 2 to 1, ran third. Royalty went to the post sore, finishing last. MASSA RUNS UNPLACED. Massa appears to be a regular book- makers’ pal. The Hammond entry was again extensively supported at scant odds to win the mile selling event, and, peked into a pocket on the back stretch by Goodchild, ran unplaced. The Lieutenant led into the stretch, where little Brussel drew out of the bunch with Wexford, an 8 to 1 chance, scoring first™by four open lengths, The Lieutenant tired badly and Cricket Kelly snatched the place by & nose with Theo. Case, a 40 to 1 shot. Graziallo, the Columbia stable horse, carrying 111 pounds and “Big Bill” Knapp, made a great big gallop of the $1000 Bermida handicap. He ruled a con- sistent choice in the betting and finished two lengths before Toupee and the Schrefber entry, Deutschland, in 1:39%. Off poorly, Princess Titania had no chance. NOTES OF THE TRACK. Thirty-one bookmakers again cut in. “Michigan” Smith came back at Dick Willlams for claiming The Lady Ro- hesia by boosting the entered selling price of Nine Spot from §600 to 3$905. No sale. ‘Wexford, winner of the fifth, was bid up from $900 to $110 by Jack Case. Frank Doss retained the gelding. “Diamond Jim” Brady, the wealthy New Yorker, owner of Oiseau and other noted turf stars, was a visitor at Oak- land yesterday. M. H. Tichenor of Chicago viewed the racing and left for Los Angeles on Jast evening’s Owl. Most of the Tiche- nor string are quartered at Ascot Park. Barney Schreiber has engaged Dugan to do his two-year-old riding for the balance of the season here. Jack Crane lost Byronerdale again. Dick Willlams, owner of Nine Spot, claimed the gelding for $825. Oswald Bianchi lost money on the goods when he paid Tommy Griffin $1200 for Menden. The two-year-old injured his back In some way and Os- wald sold him to Charley Murray yes- terday for $250. Little Swain, who rode Lacene, was taken ill right after the finish of the Oaks and Cricket Kelly had to be sub- stituted in his place on Dorado id the last event. ———————— Many Bowlers on the Greeam. The ideal weather attracted many Scottish bowlers to the green,at Golden Gate Park yesterday. No tournament matches were played, but the experts met in a number of interesting prac- tice games. Closest of these was that between E. C. Medeau and M. L. Crowe and James Gray and J. C. McLachlan. The fimn\lr won by a single point.

Gans agreed to the terms offered by Jimmy Coffroth for the battle, which will require him to weigh in at 133 pounds at & o'clock.

O'Brien recently accepted the offer of an English club to box Palmer for a purse of $10,000. A few days later, when he received an offer from O'Rourke for a purse nearly twice that amount, he cabled the Britisher, asking if this was acceptable to him to settle the.matter on these conditions. In a reply he recelved to-day Palmer sald he would accept the conditions and that he was eager to journey to the United States. ’ —_——,——————— - INDOOR RECORDS BROKEN. Preparatory Scheol Boy Runs a Mile in Fast Time. * NEW YORK, Feb. 3.—Two indoor world’s running records were broken to-night at the Irish-American Ath- letic Club’s games in Madison Square Garden, both new marks being made in.a four-mile relay handicap. This event, which the Irish-American Ath- letic Club won after giving 150 yards to their opponents, was a one-sided con- test from start to finish. The winning team was made up of J. P. Sullivan, George V. Bonhag, Harvey W. Cohn and Melvin W. Shepard, each running one mile in the order named. The Xavier Athletic Club was second and Pastime third. A week ago, over this same track, Shepard, who hails from the Brown Preparatory School of Philadel- phia, made an indoor record of 4:25 1-5, but to-night he romped home in the final mile of the relay in 4:22 4-5, the total time being 17:58, which beats Cor- nell's world's record of 18:21 by twen- ty-three seconds. In the mile intercollegiate relay race Yale won, Cornell second, University of Pennsylvania third. Time, 3:31 4-5. The ten-mile seratch race was won by W. G. Frank of the Irish-American Athletic Club, who led from start to finish. He was almost a fifth of a mile ahead at the finish. J. Calestein, Mo- hawk Athletle Club, New York, was second.
