GREATEST RACE OF THE YEAR

WITNESSED II Y .10.000 PEOPLE AT THE SIIEEPSHEAD HAY TRACK. Society Ont In Force, nnd the Rettins Hin Crowded with Sports Who flacked WroiiK Horses. NEW YORK, Aug. 21. John E. Madden's Yankee, at 4 to 1 in the betting, won the classic Futurity at Sheepshead Bay today, the richest fixture of the American turf. He won driving by a length and a half from what was perhaps the best and highest class field which ever ran for the stake. Lux Casta was second, while Barron finished third. It was a great race and nobly won and a record-breaking crowd of 30.000 people stood up in its excitement and cheered the victor. The day was perfect for an outing and thousands of lovers of the thoroughbred were on hand to lend their voice In hailing the winner of the great race. Society was out in force and the big grand stand was packed to overflowing, while the broad lawns and infield were black with people. All the celebrities of the sporting world were on hand and every walk of life seemed to be represented. The track was fast and the conditions favorable. Three races were decided before the Futurity, but the interest was plainly in the classic fixture and the crowd waited impatiently to see the stars of the two-year-old world parade past the stand on the way to the post. The betting ring was a seething mass of humanity. The layers were besieged and the money fairly poured in. It was almost impossible to fight one's way near enough to the layers to get a bet down. The rank and file could see nothing in the race but the Whitney entries. Nasturtium and King Hanover, and, opening at 9 to 5, they were quickly played down to 7 to 5 and 13 to 10. The Madden horses. Yankee and Gunfire, were? a strong second choice at 4 to 1, but the feeling was not so strong for this combination when Blue Girl was scratched. Heno and De Reszeke had strong, following at 10 to 1, while Barron, the muchtouted maiden, and Lux Casta were also well played at 12 and 15 to 1 respectively. The others ranged in price from L0 to 1 to 25 to 1. scattering bets being made on all of them. SCENE IN THE PADDOCK. In the paddock the scene was a pretty one. The candidates were being saddled and fitted for the struggle, and a big crowd watched the final touches. They were a noble looking lot of thoroughbreds as they moved restlessly around, full of life and as fit as careful hands could make them for the struggle of their lives. Everything was bustle and activity when the bugle rang out calling the horses to the post. The jockies in their brilliant colors were given the "leg up" and the last words of instructions, while out in the inclosure the late ones were hurrying to get a bet down or seeking points of vantage to view the race. Goldsmith. Blue Girl and Carroll D. had been scratched, but Homestead, Broadstreet and Utopian were added, so that a field of nineteen paraded past the grand stand and cantered up to the post far up the old Futurity chute. First came King Hanover and Nasturtium in the blue and brown cap of William C. Whitney. Next followed Yankee in the cherry and white hoops of John E. Madden, and the racylooking son of Hanover Correction, for whom Madden paid $20.000 as a yearlingbrought out words of praise trorn many lips. Almost every horse was applauded as he pranced along Fly Wheel, in Perry Belmont's colors. Hyphen. Barron, Heno and Lux Casta attracting chief attention after the Whitney and Madden candidates. Once at the post the crowd settled down to wait for the flag. Eyes were strained to watch the maneuvering for a start, but except for those with strong glasses it was a confused mass, the colors not even being distinguishable. There were two false breaks, and the big crowd was getting impatient for the word, when suddenly the welcome cry of "They're off!" rang through the stand. It seemed to electrify the crowd, and everybody was on his feet, echoing the cry. At first it was a wild scramble for position. Saturday was the first to show. King Hanover, Hyphen. Yankee and De Resake close on bis heels, lr was a good start for all but Heno, who wheeled as the flag feii and was practically left. At top speed thev came down to the bend into the main track like a line of cavalry, and at that point all eyes could see the blue with brown cap of Mr. Whitney's King Hanover on the rails a short neck before Pentecost. Lux Casta. Yankee, De Reszke. Causrhnawaga and Barron were well up and tho most prominent of th1 others, and as thev flashed past the half mark it was still anybody's race. To every one's surprise, however. Nasturtium, the pride of the Whitney stable, was way back in the ruck. THE LAST FURLONG. Into the last furlong they came for the heart breaking dash to the wire. King Hanover was gradually dropping back and Odom sent Lux Casta to the front, closely followed by Pentecost. Yankee, De Reszke and Barron. "The favorite is beaten," wailed the crowd. "Lux Casta wins," shrieked those who are ever anxious to announce a result. But the race was not over yet. O'Connor drew his whip on Y'ankee and the colt, responding in the gamest manner, quickened his stride and foot by foot crept up on the living leader. Odom was hard at work with whip and spur on Lux Casta in an effort to earn the coveted honors, but Yankee with long even strides was not to be denied. A hundred yards from the wire the two were head and head. Lux Casta hung on gamely and for a few strides neither could claim an advantage. It was a stirring struggle, a bitter fight and the monster crowd was cheering and shouting. Then came the cry "Yankee wins," as foot by foot he drew away and passed under the wire a length and a half in front. Lux Casta was an easy second and Barron, closing with a rush, earned third money by a head from De Reszke. Then came Pentecost. King Hanover, Gunfire and the others, Nasturium being tenth and far back. The time was 1:09 1-5. Then came the usual scene. The band played Yankee Doodle, the crowd hailed the winner and his jockey and O'Connor took his place in the floral horseshoe. The stake was worth $3'..S10 to the winner, while the second horse earned J4.16r3.W. ami the third horse J2.0S3.24. Two thousand dollars went to the breeder of the winner, $l.2".o to the breeder of the second horse, and J3o) to the breeder of the third horse. The total stake was ?KD1 A. Featherstone, whose jockey rode the winner, got 25 per cent, of the winner's share for allowing O'Connor to ride. William C. Whitney also had some balm in the fact that he owns a half interest in Yankee, although it was a keen disappointment not to see his colors in front. Those at the start say Nasturtium was off well, but jumned at a dark spot in the track, losing time and being shut out. O'CONNOR IN GREAT LUCK. O'Connor carried off the jockej- honors of the day. riding three winners in Ogden. Yankee and Knap.-ack. The other races were Interesting and well contested and the crowd fe-lt well repaid in a good day's sport.

The Northern stakes at Hawthorne, worth $6.120 to the winner, was captured by Six Shooter, at one and a quarter miles in a sensational finish, in which the track record of 2:01i was broken by half a second. The preformance was a wonderful one for the three-year-old, who was heavily played at S to 1. He came from the field in the stretch and came under the wire to beat Jirninez by a neck, who was just that distance in front of Pink Coat in third place.

CHICAGO, Aug. 31.-The Glenview championship cup was won to-day by William J. Holablrd, jr., who defeated Abram Poole, jr., of Onwentsia, by seven up and six to play. Poole was decidedly off his game and Holablrd won without much efiort. A high wind interfered somewhat with the play of the two men as they started on the final round for the cup. Both were on the green in two shots, but it took them three puts and the first hole was halved. The second was halved with three strokes, but going to the third Poole sliced to die edge of the woods and it took him a six-hole down. Holabird went down in four. The fourth and fifth were equal with five on each hole. The sixth and seventh were captured by Holabird. The eighth was halved and at the turn Holabird was four holes to the good. He captured the next three holes straight, making the score at the end of the twelve holes seven up and six to play. Rernnrd NlcholU Won First Honors. TOLEDO.

WAS NOT PROPERLY HANDLED

CONSTITUTION'S SKIPPER Ol TGENERAI.ED 11 Y COLUMBIA'S. Remnrknhle Speed Shown by Shamrock II in New York Ray Stilled nt Rate of Fourteen Knots an Hour. NEWPORT, R. I., Aug. 31. The Columbia, splendidly handled, beat the Constitution to-day 4 minutes 19 seconds, corrected tfm?. over a course of fifteen miles to windward and back, in the first trial race to select the cup defender. The defeat was decisive, and admirers of the Constitution are at their wits' end to make apologies and excuses for her bad behavior. She was fresh from the Herreshoff shipyard, where her bottom was burnished until it glistened like plate glass in the sunlight. Her sails fitted her admirably, with the exception of the balloon jib topsail, which she set on the homeward reach. Thus she had no drawbacks to act as a detriment to her speed. Moreoer, Nat Herreshoff, her designer and builder, was aboard. All. however, was of no avail. The Constitution was beaten fairly on her merits, and unless she sails better on Monday and Wednesday the committee which has the matter in charge may decide on selecting the Columbia to meet Shamrock 11. The only possible excuse that the backers of the Constitution have to offer is that the Constitution got the worst of the start, being handicapped several seconds. This is quite true, but she got the worst of the start simply because her skipper was outgeneraled and outclassed. But the few seconds she lost thus cannot by any means be distorted to account for the signal defeat administered to her by the Columbia. CHOICE WEATHER. The race was started as a dead beat to windward, the course being south-southeast, dead in the teeth of a nine-knot breeze and in smooth water, the very choicest weather for the? Constitution if she had been sailing in her old-time form, or if the Columbia has not much improved since her early races this year. The wind, however, hauled so much to the eastward as to allow the yachts to steer their course so that, as a matter of fact, the dead beat resolved itself into one long leg and a couple of short hitches. The surprising part of the race was the sagging oif to leeward of the Constitution when close hauled. In a stiff breeze one might have expected to see the Columbia beating her, but in the weather that prevailed to-day it was indeed amazing to see the Constitution so badly defeated. The hauling of the wind to the eastward of the course benefited the Columbia slightly, as she was the leading yacht, but It cannot with any justice be alleged that this was the real cause of the Constitution's defeat. Off Brenton's reef a gentle southeaster blew at 11 o'clock this morning. The Columbia was first out to dodge about the starting point. Barr was at the helm, with E. I). Morgan close by. Aboard the Constitution, which came out later, was Nat Herreshoff. ready to give advice. The steam yacht Sultana carried the regatta committee. The competing yachts had been remeasured and the racing lengths were: Constitution 104.14 feet, Columbia 101.76 feet. Constitution thus allowed Columbia 1 minute and 11 seconds over the thirty-mile course. Twenty steam yachts and eight sailing boats of large size, together with an almost innumerable flotilla of mosquito craft, were out to see the start. The warning gun was fired at 11:33. The skipper of the Columbia planted his craft on the weather side of his rival and hampered him in the usual manner, keeping him under his lee. The beats stood for the line, and in their efforts to beat each other both crossed the line on the starboard tack a few seconds before the starting gun was fired. Three short blasts of the whistles recalled both boats. The Columbia turned round smartly on her heel, and, coming round again on the starboard tack, shot over the line well to windward of the Constitution, whuse skipper seemed to be remarkably slow. CONSTITUTION OUTMANEUVERED. The starting time of the Columbia was 11:41:15. The Constitution passed after the handicap gun was fired at 11:42:00. Both yachts went about on the port tack immediately after crossing the line. The Constitution was kept broad off the breeze, her skipper hoping thereby to avoid the back wind of the Columbia. For a little while it seemed as though she was about to run right through the lee of her competitor. But this did not happen. Sttive as hard as they knew how. Mr. Hereshoff, Butler Duncan and Captain Rhodes were kept jammed under the Columbia's lee all the time. It was marvelous to see the Constitution gradually fag ofi: to leeward in weather that was supposed to be just picked out for her. The wind, after the yachts had been out about three-quarters of an hour, hauled to the eastward, and the Columbia getting It first, being in the lead, was able to luff up to it before the Constitution came within its influence. The force of the wind was about nine miles at the start, and it freshened a little as the day Krew older. The shift of the breeze was such as to enable the yachts to almost lay their course. Consequently they kent on the port tack until the mark was well abreast of them. The official times in rounding the first mark were: Columbia. 1:30:45; Constitution, 1:32:45. Thus to the first mark, including the handicap, the Columbia had gained one minute and fifteen seconds. Forty seconds after rounding the outer mark the Columbia set her balloon jib topsail. The Constitution set her balloon jib topsail thirty-five seconds after the made the turn, beating the Columbia by five seconds. This is the first time in her history that her crew has shown any real smartness. Next both crafts set balloon staysail, and with the wind on the starboard quarter steered for Brenton's Reef lightship the homemark. Little by little the Columbia forged ahead, inch by inch, increasing the gap between herself and her rival. The Constitu tion, a few minutes before her rival finished, set a spinnaker, but it was neither useful nor ornamental. Columbia had her beaten badly. When she crossed the line a victor she was vigorously saluted. The times follow: Col. Start 11:41:15 First mark 13m:45 Finish 3:02:as Elapsed time 3:20:53 Corrected time 3:19:42 Con. 11:42:M 1:32:45 3:0S:f,l 3:24:01 3:24:01 The Columbia gained one minute fiftvthree seconds In the run in. She beat the Constitution, boat for boat, three minutes forty-eight seconds, and on corrected time four minutes nineteen seconds. FOURTEEN KNOTS AX HOUR. Rnte at Which Shamrock Suited in n StllT Rreee. NEW YORK, Aug. 31. The sixth trial spin of the Shamrock II to-day, thanks to a stiff breeze, from the southeast, developed into a speed trial over a measured course, the results of which are considered satisfactory to Sir Thomas Lipton and his friends. Sir Thomas said yesterday that when Mr. Jameson arrived he would be In absolute charge of the yacht. He was on board the Shamrock to-day and in charge every minute of her trial, judging from the masterly way in which she was handled. Instead of going outside to sea he had the yacht sent twice up and down the main ship channel from the southwest spit to Staten island and back, almost every mile of which is marked by government buoys, with the result that by simple calculations It was found the yacht had traveled over certain portion of the course at the rate

Passing the spit buoy soon after 11 o'clock- all hands clanned on the mam sheet and trimmed it down almost fiat for the close reaeh up the mam ship ehann I. j As soon as t-he hauled up on the wind tne ; vacht jumped awav at a twelve-knot rate, j and against a three-knot tide. All the way j up the channel she was saluted by out- , bound steamers. j ln thrmicli the Narrows and nast ciuar- i antine the Shamrock sailed until 12::K Cantain Svcarnorc then luffed her and swung her around to the port tack for the return trin. This first tack or the wmdward work brought the yacht almost over to Stapleton. Two more short tacks put her through the Narrows. Afterwards ne brought her out to Coney Island point. The picture the Shamrock presented as she opened out bv the point and got the full force of the breeze was a magnificent one. With her lee rail buried in foam and her deck wet half way up to the mast with living sprav. the yacht gave an exhibition of sailing that astonished those who wer. watching her. Captain Sycamore then waited for slack water to get a better gauge on her sneed. When the channel was all clear of steamers he put her on the starboard tack vind easing sheets went for the first mark the southwest spit buoy. Gathering way as she felt the strength of the breeze the green beauty sped away to the northward on her second trip at steamboat speed. George L. Watshn. William G. Jameson and Commodore Hilllard sat on deck watching every detail of the spars, sails and hull. At 3 o'clock the yacht was headed back to Sandy Hook on the port tack, nearly close-hauled and with a fresher breeze than she had before. Faster than ever she traveled under its influence, putting her lee rail clown to the water and often taking little green seas over her lee bow until her deck was wet clear up to her mast coat and half way aft. The Erin, coming up astern of her, was traveling fifteen knots and it took her nearly fifteen minutes to overhaul nnd pass her, from a point about an eighth of a mile astern. From this it was estimated that the green vacht was traveling quite fourteen knots an hour for the five miles between Coney Island point and the southwest spit buoy. Sir Thomas, who remained on board the Erin all day, seemed particularly pleased with his yacht's performance. Shamrock's Manager Arrives. NEW YORK, Aug. 31. W. G. Jameson, who will manage the Shamrock II in her races for the America's cup, arrived here to-day on board the steamer Campania, from Liverpool. T. W. Ratsey, the sailmaker, whose handiwork has equipped the challenger, was a passenger on board the St. Paul, which steamer also reached port tc-day. LAWSOVS LATEST OFFER. He AVill Give His Yacht to Anybody to Race AKnlnnt Shamrock. NEW YORK, Aug. 31. The World will print to-morrow morning a special from Bar Harbor, Me., in which Thomas W. Lawson says: "I offer my yacht Independence to the American people for the purpose of defending the cup against the Shamrock. So confident am I that Independence will win that I am willing to make any sacrifice that a man can make in order to have the boat I have built entered as a competitor. I would give the Independence to Congress, to any State, to a body of citizens, to the New York World, or any representative body of Americans, if I could feel that by so doing the yacht would have a fair show." Mr. Lawson was seen by a representative of the World while the Boston millionaire was on his private yacht Dreamer. Speaking of the controversy over the yachts, Mr. Lawson said: "There are two sides to this question the sentimental and the practical. From the sentimental view point I feel that I have the whole of the American people with me. There is really no reason why Independence should not be entered as a competitor in the cup races. It is an international, not a yacnt ciuo race. nn uouy wio na a jacni coming up to the requirements should be allowed to enter it,. It should .make no difference whether the boat hailed from Boston or San Francisco. If it is an American boat it ought to be allowed to compete against the boat built by a foreigner for the purpose of winning back the cup which this country has kept for so long." SCORES AT THE RANGES WORK OF AMERICANS WITH RIFLES AND REVOLVERS AT SEA GIRT. Wimbledon Cup Won by Cnpt. W. Martin The Shooting Wntched hy Irish Marksmen. II. NEW YORK, Aug. 31. From early morning until after, sundown to-day the rifle and revolver marksmen were busy on the Sea Girt ranges. Several contests were decided, the principal one being that for the Wimbledon cup, for which American citizens only were eligible to compete. Thirty men started In this match, but the ranks were quickly depleted, as many of them missed the targets altogether in the first attempts and dropped out of the race. Each man had thirty shots at 1,000 yards, and those using the military Krag-Jorgen-sen rilie were allowed 18 points on the twenty-ninth round. Capt. W. B. Martin, of the Second Regiment, of Trenton, N. J., and Corporal Casey, of the Seventy-first Regiment, New York, were tied at scores of 113 each. Casey only made a two on his last shot and Martin scored a four, making a total 110 out of a possible ISO. Both men shot the military weapon and IS points wereallowed to their scores. Captain Martin won the match with a total of 137 points. Casey had 133 and Sergeant Cory, of fh Twelfth Regiment. New York, came ne:;t. with 134, including an allowance of points. William D. Foulke, f Philadelphia, who won this event last year, shot a sporting rifie and had no allowance. Hi.net score was 122. The Irish rifie rhooters , watched th'American marksmen closely during thcontest so as to get a line on their work in anticipation of what they may exp ct meet in their special match next Fridav. The scores of leaders were very gvd, but the general opinion prevails that the Irish visitors are much superior in execution. Some of them shot at the f". and 1.0t-yard ranges to-day, and one of the American marksmen said that their performance was scientific and almost perfect. Six teams of five men each took part in the revolver team match, which was won by the representatives of Light Battery A, of Bo?ton. The total score was I'rt points. The other teams and scores were: First Troop. Philadelphia. 3G2: Squadron A, New York. 542; Fourth Regiment. Jersey City, 502; Troop A. First Brigade. Maryland National Guard, 545; and First Troop. New Jersey, 473.
