Commissioners Roosevelt and Andrews went down in the Thirteenth Precinct fifteen minutes after midnight, as the President had done in the Twenty-first Precinct last week, to ascertain how policemen perform their duty while on patrol. . ‘The tour ot che President on the for- mer occasion resulted in a shock to 4 Foundsman and five policemen.

Athlete Records Should Be Broken. by Travors Island Winners The one-mile race between T. P. Con- neff, the holder of the world's record, and George W. Orton, the American and intercollegiate champion, will attract the fifty-fourth athle New York Athletic Club at Travers Island to-morrow. Both men have been training asskluously for this event, and as both are members of the N.Y. A, C., they are particularly anxious to se- cure a victory on thelr own grounds. To draw the cracks out, C. J. Kilpat- rick, the fast half miler, has been al- lotted ten yards start. Some of iKi- patrick'’s admirers think that he may even defeat the scratch me with this allowance, J. E. Morgan, who repre- vented Yale in the international contest last year, has been given twenty yards handicap, and A, J. Walsh, the Xavier A. C. long distance champion, 1s on the twenty-five yards mark. G. Cleveland, of Yale, who made a hot pace for the first three-quarters of the intercolleg- late mile, is on the fifty-yards mark, No limit has been set in the 100 yards handicap by the Athletic Committee, and the handicapper has given starts ranging up to seven yards on 'T. J. Lee. the American champion and 2% yards record holder, and W. M. Richards, of Yale, who was just beaten by Crum for the intercollegiate 10) yards champion- ship. If Lee starts, the race between the two men should be a good one, and may accompliah a 10 seconds’ record for the distance. Tho same men are on acratch In the 2 yards handicap. Patterson, of Wiillams College, running under the colors of the N. Y. A. C., is also entered in the sprint events, There are twenty- five men altogether in the 220 yards run, and Richards has been set a hard task to catch his men, New Yorkers who go to Travers Island will have an opportunity to see the Bos- ton A. A. champion, 1. BE. Burke, run from scratch in the 4 yards run. He has been set to concede W. M. Richards, of Yale, and C, J. Kilpatrick, the halt: mile champion, three yards. ‘The handl. cap ts limited to fifteen yards, and many of the best men of Yale occu the Inte mediate marks, so that Burke will prob- ably have to equal his best record of 493-6 in order to win the handicap. C.J. Kilpatrick ta thought to be e to ‘accomplishing the half-mile world’s record in the limited handicap at that distance. The ata rts have been limited Aty-five yards, and Orton and nef! have been given ten yards to ove Kilpatrick out to the utmost. E. Hollinder, the Pastime crack, ts on the fifteen ‘yards mark with 'T. KB Burke, the Bostontan, The world’s rec- ord {s'1.642-5, while Kilpatrick last year covered the distance in 1.5 4-5, It 18 seldom that 6 much Interest cen trén In the weight events; but thie yer the Imorovement made by Hickok and Cron, of Yale, seriously threatens the hitherto aecure position of James 3 Mitchell. “The handicapper still appears to think that Mitchell will atill retain hia supremacy, as Hickok has been al- lowed five feet in the «ixteen-pound wames of the ual hammer handicap and Crogs alx fee Wuttrich, of the Pastime A. C., {t In rumored, has b throw! hi far in adva he has land East River from the Pas nd, has been given ten feet «rot handicap. H. H. Baxter, the N.Y. A. C. captain, has been placed on the ‘scratch in the pole vault handicap with G. H. Allen, of Yale. The veteran volunteer is doing good work in practice, but has to con- cede @ handicap of nine inches to the limit man, One of the features ‘of will be the running nian Jump for men who have never Juinped sx feet. This has attracted thirteen entries, but the alm of victory will probably reat with . A. W, Baltazgi, the schoolhoy, who has come within a fraction of the six feat record. ‘The hurdle races are both ecratch, and New Yorkers will have an. other opportunity to see the matchless Stephen Chase walk away from his competitors in the 120 yards event, T) entries altogether are far above the average, ani great day's port is in- sured. ee CANTOR GETS PIQUA CLUB.

Moore said he had not decided whether to plead gutlty or not. It was learned that Moore a few month ago borrowed $2.00 from A. R. Ledoux, a chemist. Soon after con- tracting this loan he got the East River Silk Company to give him a chattel mere algned by the Vice-President and Treasurer of the company. ‘The mortgage wax not recorded until yes terday.
