saia that he intended to buy fifteen brood mares and import a arst-class stallion from Lngland. Members of the Coney Island Jockey Club and the Brooklyn Jockev Club met Tnursday nisrht and passed a ruie that any person who shall be arrested for a violation of the provisions of the Ives Racing bill shall be suspended all privileges of the course until the day of hi trial, when, if convicted, he shall be ruled off. This action was taken to head off some ambitious and reckless bookmakers who were concocting schemes to evade the law. Early Thurs-dav morning, a few hours after the Betting bill had become a law, these people secured a legal opinion which declared that under the new law they could register bets in this city addition to sell in pools at the race tracks. The members of the'different jockey clubs do not wish to have the law become at ad objectionable, and will see to it that it id carried out in letter a well as spirit.

Time, IMMENSE ATTRACTION Will be offered in Every Department throughout our Entire Store tor Monday and Tuesday. jiiasieru trip. The letroit Club's of Existence Next Year. Detroit, May 23. Special.

While everybody here is rejoicing over the success of the Detroit base-ball team and taking an immense amount of pride in the celebrated sluggers, there is considerable speculation as to whether there is much if any truth in the report that the club will not belong to Detroit after this season. It is true that the directory are in earnest when they say that no amount of money can buy the team or any of the principal players this year, but the fact remains that they do not propose to sink any considerable sum of mouey simplv as a matter of pride. President Stearns is an ardent base ball man. and it cannot be said of him that he desires to make any money oui of the team, and so long as both ends come within a short distance of meeting Director Edson will not listen to any proposition ioouing to the transfer of any of me noted slugners. It is said ou good authonty.

however, that Director Vail, wno owns two-tnnds of all the stock of the ciub. will not be satisfied w.tb thing short of a handsome money balance on the rignt side of the leuger at the close of the season, and that if he this cannot be hau he will more willingly than perhaps any other stockholder or d. rector listen 10 the siren voices from Piiiiadelpiiiii, New York, Ciacago. and other cities and consent to the sale of the team. In short.

Director Vail is said to be in the cluo for the purpose of making money. It is certain that the directors will not devote considerable of their valuable time to the successful management of tne club at a pecuuiary loss. The lavorit argument here is that the whole city and State uerive great benefit from possession of such a team, which carries the name and fame 01 Detroit to every part of tne country daily through the season, and tms is all the more reason why the burden, should there be a bui den. should be oorne more generally. There was no loss last season, and there has been none Dre oocis.

He Used to be a hrst-ciass and he is a tine billiard piayer. George Sloston says there are only two three-cushion carrom players besides Schaefer and the other big ones who can beat Tom.

"Tom Gallagher used to play a good many billiard matches in Musscy's oid rooms at ourtn and Pine streets. St, Louis. When he was practicing a crowa would always be on hand. iey all knew him ana liked him. Now, lorn has a deliberate way of walking around the Diinara table and viewing a hard shot from various points, and then fiddling with his cue reflectively before he shoots, not nervous like, but it his way.

So when the crowd got tired waiting some one would call out. as Tom sawed with his cue, let her go. Finally it got to be a common phrase around St. Louis. Then it got into the pool-rooms and on the race Afterwards the billiard wlavers with whom lom had matches carried it aw with them Maggi-oli to New Carter to Cleveland Lon Morr to the coast, and so on untii it worked its way East two years us-'o and struck 'Change heie contagiously 1 st summer.

Everybody interested in billiards will give thanks. Attorney-General Mercier of Montreal, it is announced, will shortly have proceedings taken against all who were connected with the recent Gilmore-Hawkins tight. "Pony" Moore writes Charley Mitchell that 111 the last meeting between "TaS' Wail and Jem Smith blackened the champion's eye and outfought him." The Me.vnell kennel of foxhounds was established over 10 ye irs ago at ll.iar Cro-s. Eu-glacd. by Hugo Meynell.

and has been maintained to the present day by his descendants. Jem Mace and Jem Smith, the English champion, have buried tne hatchet. Mace now intends to again visit this country and bring Smith with him. It is the intention of Smith on his arrival to meet all coiners in contests. Reports Lave been telegraphed all over the couuiry that Billy Bra I burn was in a precarious condition aud in danger of death from blood-poi-oning.

A peculiarity about the third Detroit-New York game today was that nearly all the runs were made after two men were out. The victory for New York gives them two out of three of the series. There was some rain, both before and during the game. Detroit did not arrive at the grounds until 4 clock, so they had no preliminary practice. New York outplaved them in the field, at the but.

and on the bases. Baldwin was hit hard throughout, but Keefe's curves were not found after the fourth inning. After that stage Detroit made but one hit. Dunlap and Rowe did splendid work, but Ward carried on" the honors of the day. Dorgan made a brilliant catch in the ninth inning.

The sculling contests at Pullman tomorrow may draw large crowd, but there are not many residents ol Chicago who will so out to Lake Calumet expecting to witness great races. Planted and Bubear are announced to row in the mora-InK- Bubear is the champion of England and is rated a very nearly ttri-class, whue Planted has for some year been in the rear among American scu.ler; and witu one man outclassing another far, if they haDpen to scuil together over a distance of two macs the performance will haruiy be entitled to be termed a race, llauiun and Gautlaur are two great scullers. This is indisputable. They are. however.

Just like all other athletes in that they must be in good condition in oruerto do a good performance. So one questions that Gaudaur is in splendid condition, as lit as possible for a grand perioim-ance. Hanlan case is different. Good judges say he is not in condition ami the tala about the time he will row in is all ull His weight is considerably above his championship scaling, and, Whiie it is douutful if in his best days, in prime condition, he could outscullGaudaur.it tioes not 100K as if lie has much cliunce to defeat him at present.

Everybody was glad to that the recent attempt to buy some of the beat Detroit players proved a failure. So long as the Detroit management keeps even or nearly even they will decline to yle.d to any such temptation, but shou. there be a serious deficit at the end of the season the people of Detroit must ike up their minds to come forward aud pay tor the ciuu if they want It.
