THREE FAVORITES WON THE MONET AT NEW ORLEANS. SLOPPY COKRSES REPORTED AT BOTH RUNNING TRACKS.

New York, January 26. August Belmont's nomination of Lord of the Vale for the American Derby, at Washington Park. Chicago, has occasioned considerable surprise in eastern turf circles. It was generally believed that if Mr. Belmont made an entry it would be Mizzen, who was the champion youngster of the early meetings of last year, and who is not.

entered in the JLawrence Realization stake, the big 3-year-old special of the east. Mr. Belmont considered both horses, and his election of Lord of the Vale is taken as proof that he believes that colt to be the better of the two. The entry is not merely a complimentary one Mr. Belmont it is believed, send Lord of the Vale to Chicago, to try for'the Derby, if the Hastings colt trains on.

next spring and he is fortunate enough in the middle of June to be fresh and fit. The chairman of the Jockey club is riot indifferent to the $25,000 a Derby victory would yield to the winner, and he is anxious to win for his brilliant young stall ion Hastings (Lord of the Vale's sire) and for the Nurserv stud, the place of the colt's birth, the distinction of an American Derby triumph. No American 3-year-old could attain higher distinction. Split Card at Orleans. Xx-w Orleans.

Troy, MULLIN AGAIN A FUGITIVE REQUISITION PAPERS SWORN OUT BY FORT WAYNE MAUTNER. PITCHER WILL CONFER WITH MR. ANGUS ON THE SITUATION. CLUB WILL FIGHT THE CHARGE OF PERJURY AGAINST MULLIN. Toledo.

January 2fi. (Special.) George the Detroit pitcher, left here to-night and will go to Detroit to-morrow morning to see President Angus, of the Detroit club, as he Is again In trouble with Mautner, who owned the Fort Wayne ball team in the Western Association league two years ago. This afternoon the sheriff of the county in which Fort Wayne. is located went before Gov. Nash CHARLI3 CARR, City Firut Baneman Who Hnm Been Signed by Detroit.

and procured requisition papers, preparatory to arresting Mullin and taking him to Fort Wayne. When seen here Mullin said he had no idea he was to be prosecuted on the old score, but as the Indiana sheriff had not yet arrived, he left the city at once with the intention of getting the Detroit manager to accompany him to Fort Wayne to go on his bail bond, as he expects to be admitted to bail. The charge against Mullin is perjury, it b-nng said he swore falsely in connection with a contract that he signed. says he expects to win out when it comes to a trial. The foregoing Toledo dispMch is another chapter in an old story.

Mautner has kept Mullin dodging for a year now. Last spring he forced the pitcher to hastily, abandon the Detroit nine in Chicago, to escape; arrest by a detective. Later in the -season he had the player arrested, by a deputy sheriff, who boarded the sleeper in which the Detroit club was passing through Fort Wayne. Mullin was released by the court before which he was arraigned, and got out of town hastily. After the ball season the player went to Indiana for the purpose of effecting a compromise, but learned that this was impossible, and so did.

not meet Mautner. In the fall of 1901, after signing with Detroit and Brooklyn, Mullin signed some sort of agreement or contract presented by Mautner, and accepted advance money. Mautner alleges that In the paper Mullin swore that he was at that time under contract to no other club. On this -alleged statement he bases the charge of perjury. He admitted, when in Detroit last spring, that at the time that he alleges that Mullin made a false statement he (Mautner) himself kne-w that the player was under contract here.

Since that time a grand jury has indicted Mullin. Mr. Angus will fight the case for Mullin. The pitcher is expected to be one of the best in the American League, and has had his salary increased twice over the 1902 figure, once when he signed for 1903, in August last, and again at the close of the season. HARLEY ON COAST TRIP.

SAYS MERCER LEFT ACCOUNTS WITH PARTY STRAIGHT. Philadelphia, January 26. Dick Harley last season with the Detroit team, has returned from the coast, where he played on the team. Ho lilked interestingly on the trip, and on the Mercer matter. "It was the greatest trip rever had in all my said Harley.

"We had a fine crowd of fellows and we all enjoyed ourselves immensely. The scenery in the various states which wo visited was simply grand and the climate was wonderful. "At some places, particularly Denver, Albuquerque, N. and Las Vegas, Uie climate affected our ballplaying to a considerable extent. Being so accustomed to playing' in the east, the rare atmosphere, of course, interfered with our wind.

This was particularly noticeable in running, and after making a dash around the bases we frequently compelled to lie down for several minutes before we could again breathe naturally. The air also had an odd effect on our batting. We would seem to hit the ball as hard as ever, but somehow or other it didn't seem to go as far or as quickly. The reason, I guess, was that the air affected our eyesight somewhat, and we did not time the bail the way we thought we were doing. "The death of Mercer," Harley continued, "was a shock to everyone of us.

He was one of the linest fellows I ever traveled with. Win always was readv for a joke or a good time and made friends with everyone he met on the trip. None of us could account for his action, and I guess his death always will remain a mystery. "For a few days before he committed suicide Mercer complained of pains In his head, but we thought nothing much of this at the time. He gave none of us an- inkling of his intention, except that he acted a little queer the dav that he took his life.

His accounts were all straight to the penny. Indeed, even the last day of his life he looked up each of the boys and gave him $30 the amount coming to each man from the game the previous afternoon. "From a financial viewpoint the trip was a success. After having a good time and visiting many points of interest, we cleared more than $530 each over and above all expenses." Johnson Going East.

FEARFUL OF THE TASK THAT WILL EE HIS NEXT SEASON. SAYS ALL MICHIGAN MEN MUST LEND HAND TO THE ELEVEN. Ann Arbor, January 26. (Special.) F. H.

Yost will return and will coach Michigan's football team next year. This announcement was made authoritatively this afternoon, after a conference between Mr. Yost and Prof. Pattengill, chairman of the board control. The fact that there is a three-year contract between Michigan and Yost is well known, and the fact that Yost would prefer to go elsewhere next year is also known, but it is not through the slightest bit of differences of opinion or lack of harmony that the big coach desired to break away.

Only last Saturday he warned newspaper correspondents as follows: "I want you to distinctly understand that whatever is the outcome, the relations which exist between the board of control. Manager Baird, the faculty, tho otnrlent hndv. the citizens of Ann Arbor and myself, are the most cordial. Nobody could be treated any more royally than I have been while In Ann Arbor, and while I have been coaching Michigan." Manager Baird was asked the reason for the delay in settling the question about his services, tie sasa: Feared the Task. "Coach Yost simply realized the herculean task before him.

To come back here and continue to produce winning teams means more than anybody would want to attempt. IJe thought that, if the board of control would caiscel the contract, he would like to go elsewhere, but after talking the situation over to-day he has concluded tu continue as coach I am glad that he arrived at this con-oinainn nnd everv Michigan man should turn In and not let him regret it for a moment. conch Yosl regard nu the mat ter: "I realized at the end of the season last fall that if I returned to aiicnigan to coach I would face the hard proposl-tinn nt hn.vine to make good the most extraordinary records which tho team has made during the past two years. It is a proposition that follows every college team which has a series of successful years In athletics. But the real facts are that it takes more work to keep a successful team winning than It develop a losing team into one that will win games.
