TONKIN SMITH, 993 Fulton st, near Orand av. NEW COLUMBIA BICYCLE) FOB, Archduke Disqualified Because df Sims' Peculiar Tactics. SA.LA.BAR GOT THE RACE. Maurice Was the Only Favorite to Land the Money at Sheepshead Bay Joe Miller Established a New Track Record at One and a Half Miles The Recent Performances of Two Horses to Be Investigated. Yesterday proved to be another bad day for form players, as only two oj the six favorites won.

One of these, Archduke, in the first race, was disqualified and placed lost for the foul riding ot Jockey Sims. Of late Sims has shown a disposition to take chances in this direction, and has been cautioned belore. Yesterday' foul was of such a flagrant character as to thoroughly merit the decision of the judges, although the public, who backed the favorite heavily, was, of course, disgruntled. It all happened in this way. Going around the bgnd, The Huguenot was leading, on the rail, with Salabar running second.

Archduke came up on the outside, and swerving over, bore in on Salabar, who In turn was pushed into The Huguenot, knocking the latter off his stride. Martin was obliged to pull him up, and Archduke went on and won by two lengths, Salabar running second, Demagogue third and The Huguenot fourth. The stewards' prompt disqualification of Archduke left Salabar winner and advanced Demagogue to the place, and The Huguenot to third. In the second event, Maurice, the 8 to 5 favorite, won by four lengths from King with James Monroe third. This was the only case in which a favorite won during the day.

Lady Marlon was a 3 to 5 favorite in the third race, but went to the post quite lame. La Goleta, Lucky Baldwin's fast filly, was the winner, beating out Kenmore Queen by a lengUh. Rose In Hand ran a good race, receiving third money by beating out Kitefoot a neck Starter Pettlnglll surpassed even himself in the fourth race, getting the field of ten away in. little straggling bunches, with Tremargo absolutely The latter ran kindly, however, passing her field one by one and finally in the stretch challenging and beating out Yemen a neck. The race was run In 1:14 4 5, but the winner must have run It from where he got away in close to 1:13.

The fifth race was a 3 year old maiden affair and the oft touted Fireside was again made favorite, at 8 to 5. So heavy, in fact, was the play on him, that he went to the post at 4 to 5. The winner, however, turned up In T. J. Healy's Tobias at 10 to 1, with O'Don nell, a stable boy, up.

He got away last, but was gradually advanced by his boy, finally taking the lead and winning easily by four lengths from Fair Rebel, a 30 to 1 choice, the favorite running third. A new track record was established for one and one half miles in the last race. Rensselaer opened favorite, but at post time Song and Dance had usurped that position. When the flag fell Jefferson, quoted at 50 to 1, took the lead and set a merry clip, followed closely by Joe Miller. Rounding Into the stretch, Slcane on the latter challenged and in a hot drive won by half a length.

Jefferson beat Rensselaer two lengths for the place, the resc of the field being over ten lengths further back. The time, 2:34 1 5, breaks the track record, which was formerly held by Batfaampton. The stewards, have taken up the Flying Dutchman race and are investigating it. There is also some talk of investigating the recen running of Salabar.

REAL ESTATE MARKET. Jere Johnson, this morning, when asked his opinion of the present condition and future prospects of Jots in the outlying wards ot Brooklyn, said to the reporter: "During the past three months there has been a very marked and favorable appreciation of values In all lots in the outlying wards. This probably is the result ot consolidation, of the grid ironing of the entire city with trolley roads and the improved times. It was first shown in a sale of 160 lots on Twenty second avenue and Sixtieth street, which I made on July 5, when every lot was disposed of at satisfactory prices, and titles have all been taken by the different purchasers. But a more marked Improvement was shown at the sale on Labor Day of 182 lots belonging to the estate of the late Henry Johnson, between Ocean Parkway, Coney Island avenue and Avenue L.

On this occasion the demand was greater than at any sale I have made in twenty years; prices ranged from $150 to per lot, every lot was old and a great many more could have been disposed of if we had had them to offer. Thev have all been settled for. It seems to me that we can have no clearer indication of improvement than the result of these two sales." Thursday's judicial sales were: At the Real Estate Exchange, 189 Montague street, Dy Jacob uole, auctioneer, for Will lam H. Dill, referee in action of Horace N. McGee against Peter Schmitt, 167 Ninth street.

Knowles, 736 Bedford avenue. THE C. W. A. IN TROUBLE.

The Canadian Wheelmen's Association is in an unpleasant predicament. The cyclists of British Columbia, a large part of the Canadian Wheelmen's Association membership have al lied with the Pacific coast outlaws from the League of American Wheelmen and threaten to withdraw from the Canadian Wheelmen's Association, unless that organization recognizes the outlaws. The Canadian Wheelmen's Association has an agreement with the League of American Wheelmen to mutually recognize the rulings of each other. If the Canadian Wheelmen's Association does not recognize the outlaws it will lose a large part of Its membership. If it does recognize them it will lose its powerful ally, the League ot American Wheelmen.

Trouble is almost certain to result either way. RACER AT WATEELY. Waverly, N.

3Tor Seven Innings He Defies the Heavy Hitting Visitors and. Then a Base on Balls and a Scratch Hit Enable Them to Score Jake Beckley's Disastrous Throw New YorUs Win and Lose. Other Games. Kennedy showed the effects ot his brief respite from labor yesterday and came within an ace of shutting out the Clncinnatis. He was not accorded the erratic support which Dunn received on Wednesday and although on account of clever pitching the field ehances were not difficult, the members of the home team handled flies and ground balls in a manner quite in keeping with Kennedy's excellent work.

The latter was in fine form and showed no clemency to the nine visiting players, who, for seven innings, were unable to score a run, while Barnie's men accumulated seven. Kennedy's one fault yesterday was his disposition to be generous with bases on balls and incidentally one of these gifts was responsible for Cincinnati's solitary tally. Swing's Braves could not connect safely with Kennedy's combination of speedy curves and tantalizing lobs. Of the four hits credited in the score, but one, that made by Tommy Corcoran in the second inning, was a clean single. The others were all scratches.

RViines was. the pitcher whom Ewing selected to oppose the Brooklyn batters, and excepting in the first and fifth innings he was quite as eff ecti.ve as Kennedy. In the fifth an inexcusable throw by Beckley to Sohriver enabled George Smith and Jones to score at the same time, preventing what stiould have been an easy double play, which would have' retired the side. Tje five runs obtained by Brooklyn in the fifth increased the local team's taiiy to seven and with Kennedy pitching unsparingly the final result was easily foreseen. A great catch by Hoy cut off Brooklyn's chance of scoring in the seventh, but no additional runs were needed.

The fielding of both teams with one ur two exceptions was faultless. Beckley's over throw to tue plate" was the most flagrant misplay and apparently he tuok especial pains to toss the ball about four feet above Schriver's head. Kennedy, and Grim were each guilty of a wild throw, but the former's error was made in fielding a slow, bunt and Jones prevented any further damage by a quick pass from hor right to second that sealed the runner's fate. Two pretty doubio "plays were features of Brooklyn's fielding. Griffin and Shindle retiring the side in tue first inning and rapid work by Shoch.

George Smith and LaChance, dispelling the visitors' last ray of hepe in the ninth. Shindle knocked down Halliday's hard drive along the third base line in the first inning and got the ball across the diamond to La Chance in season to retire the batsman. Kennedy gave Hoy a base on balls, but the silent man of Cincinnati, after stealing second, endeavored to reach third on Miller's fly to Griffin. The latter caught him by a beautiful throw to Shindle. Jones opened, the campaign against Pitcher Rhinos by placing a bunt in front of the plate.

He reached first with ease and Griffin's two bagger sent hirh to third corner. Shindle sacrificed to McPhee, enabling Jones to tally. Alex Smith, bo was assigned to cover left field, place of 'Anderson his captain home with single, to center. iJaChahce theall, hard but It went who 'touched' second and "caught Smith by several 'feet. A pitched ball hit Shoch and'on Grim's humming lino hit in Irwin's territory LaChance endeavored to reach home.

Corcoran recovered the sphere in time to head the runner off at the piate. Griffin and his band went into executive session with Umpire Lynch over the decision, but the storm soon passed over and thereafter Dot one of the official's verdict was questioned by the players. Blanks were next in order for several in nings, the work of both pitchers being steady and skillful and apparently In defiance of a batting rally. Two hits were made off Kennedy, while Rhines shut out his opponents three times. The fifth inning, however, brought a change.

After Kennedy had fiied out to Corcoran, George Smith drove a twisting fly to left, which Halliday muffed. The misplay seemed to trouble Rhines for he sent Jones to first on four balls and hit Griffin. With the bases full, Shindle knocked a sharp bounder to Beckley. A double play was apparently inevitable but the first baseman's throw was a wild one and before Schriver could recover the ball, both Smith and Jones had scored. On Alex Smith's safe drive to right.

Griffin crossed the plate, while Shoch's hit to the same locality scored Shindle, LaChance subsequently retiring on a fly to Irwin. Cincinnati's solitary run was unearned. In the eighth, Rhines opened the tinning by going out from Shoch to La Chance. Then Halliday selected four" wild, ones 'and a'passed ball by Grim advanced hirii to second. Hoy a slow bounder to, George which the; latter could hot field in' time to catch either runner, and on Muller's' Halliday reached Score: CINCINNATI.

Irving Club foot ball will have a greater meaning this year than last. The teams with which the management is corresponding are those of a number of the minor colleges and if dates can be arranged the Irving players will have an attractive home schedule from a spectators' standpoint and a hard one from their own. Wesleyan, Trinity, Amherst, Columbia, Xew York University and Stevens' Institute, with the addition of the Elizabeth and Orange Athletic clubs, are the principal elevens with which games are likely to be played. Yale freshmen and Yale consolidated teams are also on t'je list of probable oppon en is. Irvlng's season, it is expected, will be inaugurated out of town, perhaps at Lawrence ville, on October 2 or 9.

A grea't majority ot the games, however, will take place in Brooklyn, Eastern Park having been secured for Saturdays and holidays during the autumn. The closing match of the season will probably be played on Thanksgiving Day afternoon. Many of Irving's old players will be members of this year's eleven, in addition to several new and able men. No captain has been selected to direct the work of the team, but a leader will be chosen early next week. Stephen H.

Lutz is man. ager. By September 15 training and systematic practice will have been commenced, the club 'naving procured a renewal of its permission to use the tan bark floor of Troop C's armory on North Portland avenue. FOLY TO PRACTICE IN EARNEST. There will be but one foot ball team in the Polytechnic this year and it will be com posed of preparatory school students.

The remarkable god work done by the Prep eleven late last season has prompted the coaches to insist upon hard, earnest practice from the very beginning this year, and it is believed that the team will be the best in the brief athletic annuals of the school. The regular players before tne High School game las: year were obliged to face daily a strong scrub team for two full length halves. The improvement which resulted from the regular improvement of this plan was clearly manifested on Thanksgiving Day and this fall the scrub game will be part of each afternoon's practice. The theory of foot ball will also be taught to the players and each will learn the proper manner in which to cover his position and what tactics .0 avoid. George Rcbinson, who handled the 'team successfully in 1896, will again serve as head coach.

MRS. WORRALL HOME AGAIN. Brooklyn's Representative in the Reoent Women's Chess Tourney Talks of Her Trip Abroad. Mrs. Harriet Worrall, Brooklyn's representative in the Ladies' International Ones Congress, which was played during the recent jubilee festivities, arrived on t'he of the Wilson Dine laist Tuesday, but as her' coming was quite unexpected her presence was n0': known to chess players till yesterday.

Mrs. Worrall brought home vMti her the fourth prize and would have done better, she believes, had she been more accustomed to 'the playing by time limit with the use of clocks. Her appearance last evening indicated that the three months in England had been beneficial In other ways than chess ways, and her ta'lk gave the impression that the sixty years which have passed in her life must have been smooth ones. Referring to her experiences with British and European chess players Mrs. Worrall said: "I had a most enjoyabile trip so far as the social arrangements were but the tournament was a severe strain.

Two games a day under a lime limit of twenty moves an hour and with the necessity for keeping one's score and watching two clocks was most trying. I lost hours of time by not stopping my clock when it was my opponent's turn to move and lost on game in this way. I hope to have practice with clocks before I enter another tournament. "The players were some whait of a irAxed party and it was confusing to me. Miss Hertzsch, the youngest contestant, wiaa only.

18 years of age; she could not speak a word of English. Lady Thomas was afflicted with a nervous all'mem which caused her hands to shake constamtly when she made her moves; her hair was hi'te and she is nearly 70 years of age. Mrs. Muller Hartung of Germany, who received the armaibility prize, talked constantly while she was playing with me. I do not see why 'they gave her the prize.

Conversation was unrestrained while the games were iu progress and during the tournament, Khe wea'ther in London was so oppressive that fans were kept In constant motion in the playing room. The Jubilee crowds made the rooms uncomfortable, particularly after we went to play at 'the home of tie chess club during the final rounds. The confusion and the strain of eight hours' chess every day, with only a two hour in'termission was very hard on all of the players, and it was frequently remarked that the 'tournament was more a test of enduramoe Chan of skill. Under the circumstances I am satisfied with my score. With more familiar surroundings I am sure I could do better.

"The latoor of arranging the congress must have been very grea't, and Mrs. Bowles and her husband deserve credit for the successful result. Mrs. Bowles told me that she had answered personally over 3,000 letters from all parts of the world, and the collecting of the money for the prizes was very difficult. The professional players told her she could not do it.

as they coulld not raise money for a masters' but she worked persistently and she is so popular that she accomplished it. The professionals now say that they can net have a tournament because she got all the money. "The prizes were distributed by Lady New nes at the club rooms. Speeches were made by Hon. Llewellyn Atherley Jones, M.

Hon. Horace Curzon Plunkett, M. Sir George Newnes and Mr. Blackburne. Mr.

Blackburne complimented the prize winners on the steadiness of their playing. Sir George Newnes said he loved chess. He is building a yacht and hopes to visit this country next year. He does not know whether he will come In it or not. I told him after the meeting that he was very much loved In America for what he had done in the interest of chess and might bo sure of a hearty welcome.

"Miss Forbs Sharpe received a prize for the prettiest mate. It was a handsome leather case. It was not the prize offered by Baron Rothschild, $100. for the most brilliant game. That prize has not been awarded.

It will be given after the games are examined by Lasker and Pillsbury. Mrs. Bowles was very much liked. One of the players said that Mr. Bowies should have received the prize for having the prettiest mate.

"I expect to make Brooklyn my home, as it has been for many years. I will visit friends for a time at College Point, and do not know when I will take uo chess again."

SCHWARTZ'S STEADY SHOOTING. The veteran Dr. Schwartz did some fine shooting at the live bird contest of the Unknown Gun Club at Dexter Park yesterday afternoon and at the finish he had a clean record for the day. In the club shoot and the numerous sweepstake events nineteen birds were trapped for him in all and not one escaped. John Akhurst, another old timer who has seen the snows of nearly eighty winters, also did well and killed his ten birds without a miss.

The club shoot was made an optional sweepstake, but all hands entered, the purse being divided into three moneys, class shooting. Scores CLUB SHOOT 7 BIRDS. Name. Yds. rise.
