Jeffery The heavy downpour which set in yesterday forenoon transformed the track at Emeryville into a veritable of sloppy mud and the talent had Its troubles picking the winners. Long had the call, taking five of the events on the card, with Edith 100 to 1. as the biggest surprise of the day. The modest sum of 41 parleyed on the six winners would have netted no less than according to a computation made by Frank Skinner, the official form chart caller. Walter Miller, whose handling of favorites has provoked a great deal of unfavorable comment at the track of late, again made a poor showing withj public choices.

He was able to win with two horses against which the book makers laid liberal odds, but failed irjth both of his favorite mounts, getlinsr away to disadvantage in both raoes -which had the mount on the public choice and putting up a badly judged ride in at least one instance. Jockey Sandy landed the longest priced winner of the season when he brought the unknown filly Edith H. running in the colors of the Hollywood i stable, to the first in the second rare. Km pooci as 100 to 1 wa." procurable against the filly's chances at one of the betting and a few who play Sandy with consistency on long! Fhots reaped their reward. Sandy showed the way with the filly from ivire to wire.

The race was at seven which is the longest distance that 2 year olds have traversed this Baboo, the second choice, was the contender throughout and finished a.n pasy second under incompetent handling by Scoville, while Import, favorite, weakly ridden by "Cricket" Kelly, was a distant third. Mist, at 7 to 1. with Jockey Lynch up. was the surprise of the Eu- handicap. six and a furlongrs featured the program.

The public- had divided its support between Oolonel White, the odds on favorite ridden by Walter Miller, and Mary The dose second choice piloted by biigan. Miller got away poorly with favorite on account of a mix tjp Mary when the barrier arose. The Mist and Maty jumped to the front at or.cc. Mary faltered 5n the stretch, but The Mist kept right! on pnd won handily by the best parti of a length from Colonel White, which) had looked all over the winner on the i turn. Miller had easily made up the! ground lost at start before the first furlong had been covered, but lost the by taking his mount very wide Into the stretch, thereby losing several lengths.

At the end Colonel White was much faster than the winner. VLaty finished a beaten off third. John H. gbeebaa had the speed to tsike the track In the Futurity course Fjirir.l. which came first on the pro- increased his lead continually.

At the finish he was nearly three- lengths in front of May Amelia, had been second Webber came from behind to be a dis- third, after having gone back from Ts to 5s in the betting. The winner was the favorite of the race. Duke of Orleans showed nothing to warrant the tremendous plunge that had developed on him. Although Tommy Sandy beat the gate vith favorite of third race. Red Ball, backed to 6 from 8, speedily went to the front, and gallop- Ing away from his field, won as far off I as Walter Miller pleased.

At the end he was seven lengths in front of Willis Green, the second choice, which easily Gorgralete for place. Tavora, backed down to 10 from 12, the fifth in clever fashion in a hard drive with Captain Burnett, with Sir Brillar, the plunged on favorite, third. Miller had the winner in a for. ward position throughout and went to the front when the favorite began to tire at the turn into the stretch. Ag-j nola fc-as squeezed out on the turn running well up to the pace.

Burleigh won the five furlong sprinL, which the sport ended, with ease in 1:00 2-5. remarkably fast time considering the 'condition of the track. Laying along behind the pace made by i Andrew B. Cook. Btsrlf-ijrh breezed over him in the stretch.

Cook easily beat Native Son. the favorite, with which Miller had got off poorly, for the place, and Native Son was driving hard to take third money from Billy May Gossip of the Track Official notification has been received by the Emeryville authorities that Jockey A- Brown is under indefinite suspension because of his rides at Latonia last fall. This explains Brown's continued absence from the saddle. In order to prevent the handbooks on both sides of the bay from securing service on the races a rule has been put into force which prohibits the telephoning of information of the results of the racing from the track until the expiration of 10 minutes after each Jockey Eddie Lynch must be given the credit of making a uniformly, good showing with his mounts. Lynch Is invariably there or thereabouts with the horses that he rides that look to have a chance.

It begins to look as if he is deserving of being called one of the most reliable of the boys riding at Emeryville this winter. Trainer Harry Robinson had the good old sprinter Burleigh fit to run the race of his career yesterday, notwithstanding that It was his first out Jn months, and J. B. Smith; the owner, profited handsomely by his horse's victory. C.

E. Durnell, whose Eddie Dugan, had the mount, also flooded the ring with commissions on the horse and recouped his loss of the day before on Belle of Irequols. Trainer Hlnkey of the Sierra Nevada stable blames himself for the suspension of Chris Miller. He says that A. F.

Dayton was. anxious to. dispose of the horse last spring on of his general unreliability, but the horse was retained on his advice. Jack Keene was better satisfied with the ride that Jockey Scoville put upon Baboo than the general public was. Hundred to One Shot Scores at Emeryville Workouts Three-quarters in 1:18.

Keene said after the race that he was convinced the filly did not especially care for muddy going, as she floundered about badly in it. The tip was circulated freely in the ring before' the running of the third race that Willis Green had warmed up sore. This accounted for the rapidity with which he receded In the betting.

Some of the books took a fall out of the horse across the board, laying liberal show odds In spite of there being only five starters in the race. The horse worked out his lameness and finished second. "I hate to run up or claim a man's horse." said C. E. Durnell yesterday, "but I can't stand idly by and have my horses taken from me.

As they have started in by taking one of my horsos, I shall in self-defense be obliged to take one from somebody else." Durnell's declaration is fraught with Interesting possibilities. The program books for next week's racing, distributed yesterday, contain the following features: Tuesday. Danville handicap, $600, for all ages, six and a half furlongs; Wednesday, Martinez handicap, for 3 year olds and upward, one mile; Friday. Walnut Creek handicap. $600, for 3 year olds and upward, Futurity course; Saturday, Pacific Union handicap.

$2,000 ad.l-ed, for 2 year olds, one mile, and Lafayette handicap, $1,000, for 3 year olds and up, mile and a sixteenth. Trainer Buxton of the Fleur de Lis stable broke a bit winner to the first race yesterday, having backed his filly May Amelia straight and place. James Fitzsimmons, who develqped Walter Miller and managed him here last season, is taking a rest in the east this winter. He will spend the greater part of the winter in New Jersey, and will take up horses early in the spring. Trainer Hlrsch.

since Beauclere won the Maximum stake at Bennlng last Saturday, is of the opinion that the horse should be sent to Oakland to run in the Thornton stake. Whether Owner Lemaire will coincide with this view is yet to be seen. W. 08. Macdonough has lent five fillies by St.

Carlo from Ormondale farm to Kentucky, where they will be bred next spring at Thomas H. Gardner's Timberlake farm to public stallions. William Calne has purchased second call on Jockey Bilac from Vie Hughes. Jockey Post has quit the service of Harry Stover and is now in the employ of Harry Mason, trainer of the Macdonough stable. C.

B. Walter arrived yesterday from New York via New Orleans and' will cut in with a book at Emeryville next week. Among the yearlings developed this fall at T. H. Stevens' Walnut Hill stud in Kentucky is a filly by Alloway-Any Day which has showed a sensational quarter in 23 seconds.

She traces back to the No. 19 family, from which Colin comes. Fletcher Driver, manager of is greatly impressed with the filly and also with a yearling chestnut gelding by Governor Foraker-Vedas. J. L.

Holland, one of the. stockholders in the Arcadia track, is anxious to have a steeplechasing course constructed at the new plant. Instead of forming a Jockey club at this time, the breeders who met at Lexington this week decided to appoint committees in the various states of the middle to build up associations for the purpose of urging legislation favorable to racing and securing the creation of a racing commission in each state similar to those of New York and Kentucky. Clem Creveling has restored to good standing by the Western, Jop key club. Smith Perry of Chicago are backing a 30 day meeting to be held at Tampa, beginning February: 1.

This is the first time in 15 years that the Florida authorities have agreed to permit betting. Jockey T. Taylor will ride at Arcadia for Ed Alvey. Jockey Musgrave has arrived at Lob Angeles to ride for P. T.

52,000 added, is the principal feature of an attractive card which has been provided for today's racing at the Emeryville trackf Ten horses of clash have been named to start for the stake, and it looks anything but easy to pick the winnejr. At least five of the ten appear to have a good chance to win, Including Rapid Water. Arklirta, Sewell, Legatee. Sidney and Wing Ting. Some of the others must also be given an outside chance.

The condition of the course gives the race a more open look than would have been the case had the going remained fast. The track is bound to be very muddy, and the start will cut more figure in the outcome than in good going. It should be a very lively race from the betting standpoint, as nearly all the starters will have support. Arkllrta. has been carefully pointed for this race by Trainer Ollie Johnson, and has the reputation of being a grand mudder.

He has run several sensational races at shorter distances, and his trainer looks for him to make a- good showing at a mile. Rapid Water will probably rule favorite, and it must be admitted that he is in grand shape for today's test, as he made a world's record only a few days ago. Whether or not he is as good" in the mud as on the dry is a question. upon which experts disagree. He ran -'some clever races in the mud here last winter, although he was not asked to beat much at the time.

The field he 1b meeting today is the best that he has been pitted against this season. Sewell comes from the east with She reputation of being a superlative mudlark, and his light will be of material help to him. can negotiate the route. Legatee has run several good races recently on the dry, and is very much better on a soft track. He is in with a feather.

Blondy will have the inexperienced apprentice rider. Young, up, which will probably settle hi-s chances. Rubric looks to be a bit up against it. Mblesey hardly looks able to turn the trick. Jacomo is in good shape, but is likely to start in the other race in which he is entered.

He is a fair sort. Wing Ting looks to be the most dangerous of the outsiders, being in very. light. Salvage may be able to repeat in the opener. He is a grand mudder.

St. Francis may be depended on to run a good race. Silver Stocking should go well with her light Impost. Senator Warner Is reported; In splendid condition, but looks to be up aganst it. Nine Spot looks best in the second.

A. Smyth Owen Moran "is to figure in a fight i fqrj the feather weight championship leaves-thls coast. -Manager 1 Jim Coff roth has succeeded in bring- a match with Abe Attell after it seemed the differences between i the "fighters could not be reconciled. The negotiations for the match were! cpnducted over the wire last when all the terms were agreed upon, AttSll Imposed a number of conditions, all of which he withdrew when he was allowed to name Jim Jeffries referee. He wanted Moran to make a ringside weight, but this Coffroth declined to consider, as he is opposed to this, condition in any he may handle.

He offered to' have Moran weigh as low as 120 pounds two hours before entering the ring. Attell finally agreed: to 122 pounds three hours before the" fight. The number of rounds will.be 25 or more. Moving pictures will be taken of the fight and the boxers wllleach have a quarter interest in them. is to receive $1,000 for acting as referee.

It Avasover the payment of his fee that the greatest discussion resulted. Attell wanted Coffroth 'to pay a -part of it, but the promoter rsfused. He said' that Billy Roche, the official referee of the club, was competent, and that he stand by him. It finally resulted in Attell agreeing to pay half if; Moran. will pay the other half.

The latter' friends will explain to him that Jeffries will be a drawing card, and that he can afford to pay part of his fee. Attell will leave Angeles today and will meet Moran and Coffroth at 6:30 o'clock Monday night at the Willis, when the formal articles will be signed. -X--- After "ending his talk with Attell Coffroth met Jim May of Reno. They were discussing the match and May said Attell would knock Moran out insideof 10 rounds. Coffroth bet him $2,000 to $1,000 that he would not do so.

Jim May posted $500 with Jack Welsh to cover a like amount, which he understands Gans has posted with a Chicago- newspaper -by which Gans guarantees that he will back McFarland for $5,000 against Nelson. If the money is up in: Chicago the man who falls to carry out the proposition to bet $5,000 -forfeits the money now up. Nelson; has specified a weight of 131 pounds at 6 o'clock. With Mesmic on the ground it seems likely that he will get the first chance of match. with Nelson, although the latter' says that Gans and McFarland will be given, the preference.

The fact that afesmic is here will count heavily with any promoter who wants to handle the match. Coffroth has offered McFarland' a match with the winner of the Murphy-Frayne fight next Tuesday night, with the promise of a bigger match if the Chicago man wins. Blackburn Knockout a Clever Trick SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CAli. PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 6.

Blackburn tricked. Guenther 'to his fate. He misseda left and turned with his back to Guenther. The latter thought he had him in an awkward position and rushed "him open.

That was what Blackburn wanted him to do. As Guenther came the other turned around and landed a terrific swing to the Jaw. Guenther like a log and never moved until he had been counted out. Guerlther weighed possibly 20 pounds more than BRfckburn. It was the first time he was ever knocked out.

A series of lefts and right swings to the head forced Ward to take the count, of nine in the third. Only the gong saved Ward later from a knockout. Bob rallied a bit In the fourth, and by keeping cool and tearing away at Flynn's stomach, finished fairly even. Flynn's butting tactics were noticeable in "this -for the first time and he opened Bob's face in several places with his head.
