0 THE DAILY PICAYUNE NEW ORLEANS, SATURDAY; NOVEMBER 28, 1896 GIVE-AND-TAKE GAME AT THE RACE TRACK, laTorites and Outsiders Dividing the Day's Ducats. Damocles Tempests, Belle of Ford-r ham Old Dominion And OTerella the Winners, Several by Harrow Margins. Southern Athletic Eleven to Fight Gallantlj To-Day for the State Championship Two oat of the fire favorites were successful In winning Fair grounds purses yesterday. A second choice, another at 6 to 1, oat-lder, at 20 to 1, the way the story ran. At this the bookmaker could not make much toil, aa it wii a sort of give and take came.

The day waa pleasant one, aa far aa the weather went, with a track that waa trjlng to dry oat, tat still very alow. With another sunny day it oog-ht to be In fair condition. The fourth race, which waa at a mile and twenty yards, waa declared off, owing to a number of scratches, and a new one, at six furlongs, substituted. Xot a day goes by bat there Is a nose finish, and three of them yesterday held the crowd spellbound with suspense until the numbers were hung up. This kind of racing actually Invigorates, sod the crowd la not alow to appreciate It by cheering for the winner as soon as the decision is siren.

This was particularly noticeable when Belle of Fordbam's number went up In the third race, though she was not the favorite or second choice. The c-osing emit of the day, a six furlongs selling affair, resulted In another very close and fighting finish between Orerella and Jim Hogg; the first pair In the betting. The horses rsn together nearly all the way, and from the head of the stretch they fought it out to the wire-, both boys riding their best, and the horses seeming to enjoy the sport themselves. Both showed gameness to the end. and went by the lodges stand so very close that the spectators found It difficult to pick the winner.

There waa no hesitation on the part of the officials, who quickly displayed Xo. 3, which belonged to Overalls, whose nose was partly In front as the wire eras reached. Morse rode a very good race, and the same can be aald of Foucon, who had the mount on Jim Hogg. Moloch waa third, and disappointed a number of his backers, who expected him to win. The race was a fitting close to the afternoon's sport, which was watched by a large attendance, who speculated quite lively.

i The 2-year-old race, at five furlongs, which was the second on the card, bad nine starters, and the rush of money sent in on Koenigin cat his price from 3 to 1 down to 0 to 6, making him a post favorite. Tunic, Alma Russell and Sugar Cane opened at 3 and 4 to tl each, but went back as the money came in on the favorite. Iott, -with a Latonla reputation, bad some following, which did him no good. Koenigin was alow to get away, or, at least, L. Smith, who rode him, was slow, and the filly never could get in the lead, and finished In the bunch.

Tempests, a 20 to 1 chance, ridden by Ashley, got up In time to beat Sugar Cane bead, the latter leading all through the stretch and seeming to have the race won. Five lengths away came Tunic, who ran a good race for half a mile. Little i Buck showed some Improvement over his last race. The seven horses carded for the opening event were expected to make a fairly good contest, but from toe drop of the flag there was. nothing in It bnt Damocles, the 8 to 8 favorite.

He led all the way, and won under a strong pull, with Ramona fir lengths before Eleanor Mac, the latter running a good race and at a long price. Damocles and Sidkel mere the two to carry the money, but the latter never was in it, and finished last. Paul Prr was sleo backed, bnt did not get going until the stretch was reached, wben he tried to beat Eleanor Mac for third money, but the latter secured the decision by a bead. Bamona'a price was a longer one than it should have been for a mare of her class. She haa shown herself, however, snd It will hardly be as long st her next 'attempt.

The finish In the third race was enough to give the backers of Belle of Fordham heart disease. She waa winning a furlong from home, bat Hibernla Queen gave chase in such a hearty fashion that "Jockey Joe" bad to get right down to business to get the Belle home first by a nose. In fact, the Irish queen was closing so "fast aa they went by the Judges that the occupant of the stand did not know who got the decision until the numbers went t. Jndge Steadman, who shared the honors for favoritism with Hibernla Queen, was right there all the way, and lapped on the leaders at the finish. Belle of Fordhsm's price went back to ft to 1 it post time, and ber owner at this figure sent in a big commission on her, as he knew her to be right on edge.

In fact, her; last race entitled her to strong support. Judith on her very recent victory, was Jumped st when even money was posted against her winning the fourth race, a six furlongs dash, for 3-year-olds and upward. Old Dominion was -next in demand, at 3 to 1. with long prices against the others. The favorite did not show the speed she had the other day, and never got to the front.

Old Dominion, who ran truer than usual, waa the leader nearly all the way, and won very cleverly by a length, with Judith C. the same distance before Both, at 80 to 1, who ran a very fair race. May Ashley gave it np, as usual, when it came to the final spurt, and finished fourth. Fuslleer closed a big gap, and finished well np. ENTRIES FOB TO-DAY.

THE SOUTHERNS MEET BATON ROUGE -r TO-DAT. This afternoon, for the Second time this season, the Southern Athletic Crab will send Its football team into the field, and In this game they will have as rivals the big. strong eleven from the Baton Beuge University. The game was closed last Saturday, and both teams hare settled down to hard work. The Southerns had a great deal to do in the way of getting' their team Into good order, but they accomplished the work.

Wben the team played two weeks ago the majority of the men were In poor condition physically, bnt they have worked faithfully, and the improvement is marked. T. L. Bayne and his brother Hugh volunteered to assist ia the coaching, and under their experienced eyes the men were tried In every line of the play; Special care was given to falling on the ball, passing and while, when the team lined np, their blocking snd breaking through was coached. the interference waa worked every evening.

Now there is a team which is a and the sir -of Individual work seems- to have passed sway entirely. While this year's team has several men who RACING GUIDE. ST, 1896. olds end np; selling. Seven furlongs.

It ia more of eT'a eleTen throughout. The men play well together, and, being comparatively new, they work harder to get into condition. In peat years the Southerns had a team which they could send into the field with a week'a work, and they were certain to win. Then, however, football was still young in the south. tnere were not so many good players.

For three years this eleven played every team In the extreme south which waa of any note, and never were they scored against. In the fourth season they allowed Sewanee to score, and last year Memphis sent team of gianta, and defeated the great eleven. It was ragged that day. and like on many other occaalona they had gone into the field with a week or two of light work, and depending upon their former knowledge of the game. This year matters hsve been different.

The defeat of the Memphis tesm still lingers ss a bitter dose for the -club athletes, and they are determined to wipe out the stain. With this one object in view, the members encouraged the p-syers early in the season, snd Bert rand Miller wss made the captain. He selected score of good men, snd began working them. Last Saturday week this team waa sent into the field, and scored a victory, in tvo very short halves, of 53 to 0, wiping the Starkville College men off the face of the earth. Baton Rouge played the Starkvlils eleven in full halves, and a cored 52 to 0.

The comparison of the two games leads the Southerns to believe they will win. The game will be a ood one, however, and a very large crowd is ooked for. The first he if will be called promptly at o'clock, and. Judging from the number of tickets sold already, there should be several thousand people in the stand at Sportsman's park. The field has been marked off and the ropes run along the aide lines.

All detaila. In fact, have been completed, and only the presence of Baton Bouge ia needed. Last night the Southerns were brought out for their last work. Among the crowd of candidates was one old favorite, whose presence gave confidence to the men and made them work all the harder. A week ago T.

L. Bayne accepted the position ot coach, and last night he plsyed with the men as usual and agreed to accept a position on the team. The return of this veteran player to the game was received with cheers at the club, and, as on many other occasions, he was made the hero. Bayne, while at Yale, earned the name of "Nervy" from hie reckless snd fearless.plsy snd his terrific tackling. He is one of the hardest tacklers in the country to-day, although he welgha but 145 pounds.

He gets his man low, and gets him bard. The man playing opposite him will recognise this tact, no doubt. Bayne will be put out on the end. away from his old position at quarter-back. Genella.

one Of the Stars of Tulane Collesre. anil an olH player, will be the other end. Miller, one of last tackles, and captain of the team, will play his position on the right side of the line. Woods, who captained Tulane last yesr, will be the left tackle, snd O'Donnell and Telle, two of the Southern men who are big, strong and active, will be in at guards. Kaufman, although a trifle light for center, Im a bard man to get through, and bis game a.

Tulane' star csntaln. and Eada Johnson, Tnlane's full-back, will be the halves, snd Brooke, a brother of the famous full-back of Pennsylvania, snd a fine player himself, will play full-back here. The team is strong and comparatively heavy one, the average amounting to 156 pounds, while the Baton (Rouge men average 168 nonnds.

In the cycling; line, a Iters were- rather dull yesterday, and the only f-erelopaicnu were the frequent demands upon the officers of the Xew Orleans Bicycle- Club tor the prices won in the great rc-ed race of Thanks giving day. The terrible accident which occurred st the staitina of the riders waa freelv and ceneral- ly discussed.

The effect ot the accident noon future racinar through tb streets was also discussed, and all admitted that In the future a course far out of the city limit would have to be selected.

The first of a long series of entertainment was given last night at the Young Wen's uymnasuc Club and before 1000 people very Interesting programme, Including wrestling and boxing bouts, was presented. Some time aso the athletio board of directors decided to give these entertainments and the committee, with the assistance of Prof.

Whitehouse. made un tha programme and arranged the necessary details. Tne members of the club were requested to bring their friends, and ss a result fully 1000 uieu were on nana. opening feature of the programme was a trifle late In atm-tlmr. but when it was announced by Mr.

Ed Curtla. vi trereroonieB. tne auaience was repaid for waiting. P. Mahon and A.

G. Conterno. two of the members, boxed "a draw for three rounds very cleverly. There was no hard hitting to speak of, but the men showed some little skill. Then Prof.

Whitehouse and P. PaMalaaua. one of the members, put on the gloves for another three rounds. A. O.

Cunningham and Hj. x. Barton gave a comical exhibition of their idea of a prize fight, which brought forth considerable merriment. Following this feature came the set-to Of the evening. Prof.

Whitehouse snd Otto Eistmann, a big, strong German, were matched. In the first round the men warmed up and some little exchanging of rather heavy blows followed. In the second and last round, Eistmann, who la strong and some 40 pounds heavier than his skillful rivsl, began giving some heavy punches. There was a rally by both men, and the round wound up with lively Infighting and some occasionally heavy swings. The bout waa almost an even break and the referee, Wm.

Briant, called it a draw. Prof. Whitehouse displaying science and strength, nut holding the latter in re serve. Then there waa an intermission for refreshments. A few minutes later a wreatling bout between August Micas and S.

B. Brown, of Chicago, was snnounced. Brown, when ne took the first hold, showed tbst be was skillfia man. He said to ene of the members that he had been traveling as a wrestling partner of Farmer Buitm and had left the combination but a week or two ago. His work on the mat was fine, and proved to those who beard the story that It wss correct.

Micas, although in the best form, lacked the weight and strength and bad a hard fight on the defensive, lie showed considerable piuck, however, and fought out gamely. Brown took advantage of every opening and made some pretty holds. There were four falls made, bat these were overlooked. Micas, on a roll, secured ene fall, while Brown had three to his credit. The crowd waa pleased, Xor it was of a character able to recognize the fine work.

The entertainment concluded with a boxing bout between Prof. Whitehouse and Mr. Ed Grooin. of Chicago. It waa all light work, although a pretty display.

Within another two or three weeks tnere will be another entertainment, but this second affair will doubtless be a gymnastic ex. hi bit ion. with one or two bouts of boxing to liven things up. BASBBALU UHANXSGITINO DAY GAME. Bay fit.

JaSS '9TnThaalT ft A GRAND JURY DRAWN IN FEDERAL COURTS Large Enough to Handle the Session's Important Matters; The City Tiles an Answer to BecelTer Badger Denying the Validity of the Hart Garbage Contract. The Famous Counterfeiting Case Fixed for Next Jttontu Other Courts. The grand jury was drawn In the United States circuit court yesterday and made returnable next Monday at 11 o'clock, at which time the Jury will be impaneled and Jndge Parlange will appoint the fore man and charge the body and the grand Inquisitors will then be ready for work. The advent of this jury has been awaitea with some Interest, as It will take np the national bank cases. District Attorney Gnrley has been very busy with the cases and has been In constant communication with the bank examiners and especially with Expert Moxle, who was sent here for the special purpose of assisting him In preparing the cases.

A stenographer has been kept busy In the district attorney's oflice for a week or more and a great deal of matter has been pnt In shape for the consideration of the grand Jury. Mr. Gurley said yesterday that the amount of work had been enormous. The fact that affidavits had been, prepared against the bank people some time ago docs not make It easier now to get tue cases ready and everything has to be gone over anA prepared with tne most minnte attention, for it ia certain that there will do smart lawyers ready to pick flaws for the defense. The decisions since the publication of the United States statutes have all to be gone over and Mr.

tiurley has had a very hard task, working late at night sometimes. There are some Important matters besides the bank cases demanding the attention of the aUorney and the jury, and nobody knows what may come before them, except where arrests have already been made and the parties held for the action of the Jury. Chief Deputy Marshal Alcee De Blanc drew the grand Jury yesterday In open court. It was the desire of the district attorney and Judge Parlange that here should be a Jury ready for business at all times and as sixteen la the lowest number and twenty-three the highest that is permitted. It was deemed wise to draw twenty-three names, so as to always have a quorum of sixteen, and not be by the absence of one or two men.

which would stop all business until the full sixteen could be there. Ont of wenty-three there will always be enough to transact business. The jury box was recently emptied and new names put in, but ag it was not certain that all of the twenty-three men drawn would be found and as there are always some who are excused by the Judge for good reasons. It was decided to draw en additional venire tte? Df.me.8 tTOm which the vacancies flllel on Monday, and then tbm full and correct Jury will be sworn. In and put to work.

A MOTION TO QUASH. In the case of Louis J. Winston, charged with illegal use of the mails, his attorneys, Rogers and Dodds, moved to qoash the Indictment because it does not allege that the letter described therein was ever conveyed through the malls to the city of New Orleans or wss delivered to or received by the psrty to whom it was addressed, and, therefore, said indictment shows on Us face that this court has no Jurisdiction to try the offense charged In the indictment.

The letter was mailed In Natchez, to a person In New Orleans, but as it did not reach here, It 1 claimed the court in this state has no Jurisdiction. The parties are colored. George Ragsdale. of Hazlehnrst, has filed a petition against Mrs. M.
