DRIVER KENNY INJURED 1'KIXCR DIRECT C'AIGMT HIS FOOT IN A SILKY A.ND FELL. Kenny Sustained n Broken Collar Bone nnd Thigh Nervolo the Only Favorite to Win Summary. PROVIDENCE, R. I., Sept. 1. -Perfect weather and track conditions favored the opening in this city to-day of the Grand Circuit meeting, and 9.0U0 persons who gathered at Narragansett Park witnessed four superbly contested races, it was an off day for favorites, Diablito, in the 2:20 pace, being the only one of the picked bOfMI to win. The 2:06 pace, with H Held of eight starters, was marred by an accident, in which Kenny, driver of Prince Direct, was severely injured by being thrown from his seat. The horses, closely bunched, had reached the head of the stretch when Prince Direct caught Ms foot in the sulky drawn by Nervolo and was thrown so that he turned a complete somersault. Kenny struck the ground heaviiy. breaking his collarbone and thigh and severely injuring his wrist. He was removed to a hospital. The horse did not seem to be much the worse for the accident. The 2:19 trot, with eight starters and Guy Fortune favorite, went over unfinished after six heats had been trotted. Navidad and Cole Direct each having two heats, while Kamares and Guy Fortune had one each to their credit. Every heat was a battle, the sixth being particularly spectacular, when Cole Direct won by the cloitat of margins over Ka mares and Navidad. V J The pace, second on the card. re. mired five heats to decide. Mary Anna took the first two heats in fast time, only to lose the race to Diablito, a bay mare, owned in New York, who captured the next three heats and the race in sensational style.

Unless the Indianapolis Bowling League directors agree that the profits derived from the advertisements in the schedule book shall be retained by the secretary it is probable that the league will have to elect another member to that office. It is said that Edward Talbert. who was elected secretary of the league, has issued a statement that he will not serve unless he is granted the privilege of publishing the schedule book and retaining the profits, the same that has been done by former secretaries f the league. The league direetors believe that the profits from the schedule book should go to the league treasury, but Talbert says th.re is too much work connected with the office to be deprived off the advertisements in the book. No salary is connected with the office, and in former years the secretary received his pay tor the work done during the season by publishing the retMduM book. All-Stars to Meet. The All-star bowling club of the Indianapolis Bowling League will hold a meeting at the Marlon Club this evening at S o'clock lor the purpose of organizing for the season. 'SQUIRE ASSAULTED. Carpenter Also Benten and Prohn ply Kntnlly Sbot Tlirouah the Bod. VICTOR. Col.. Sept. 1 Two men were assaulted and seriously injured, one probably fatally, to-day as a result, it is believed. of the present strike of the miners of th district. The first assault occurred this afternoon at Anaconda, the victim being John Hawkins, justice of the peace. His assailants are unknown, but he believe the

assault was connected with the trial some days ago of two guards at the Kl Paso tame, charged with carrying concealed Weapons. One of them whs tined 125 and the other was released. The second outrage happened late tonight. Thomas M. Stewart, a carpenter employed in the eontruetln of a high fence around the Golden Cycle pronerty. was tak n from his home at InJependci.ee, terribly beaten and shot through uie oouy. He will probably die. His assailants were live in number. Some of them wore masks, but the victim claims to have recognized those who were not masked. He declines to name them at present.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal. ANDERSON. Ind.. Sept. 1. The opening day of the Anderson, fair was all that its promoters could ask. The exhibits are more varied and larger than ever. This is especially true in farm products, machinery and stock. The stalls and show pens of the association have been exhausted and stock Is sheltered In tents and roped-in inclosures. The racing card was attractive. John M., the unbeaten, lost his second heat In a race this season. There, are those who believe that this heat was lost on account of the betting. As it was, John M. broke badly in the first heat, taking fifth place, but It was an easy thing after the initial heat. Summaries. 2:35 Trot., purse, $1,000. Bonner, b. g.

He Objects to Major Leagnea Bring Permitted to Draft Ills Plnyers nt Smnll Cost off :tOO. The Central League, one of the members of the National Association of Minor Leagues, will not agree to the new national agreement as prepared by major league representatives at Buffalo last Wti k. George B. Bement. jr., president of the Central league, and Mr. Halderman, president of the Marion club of that organization, were in the city last evening discussing league affairs and the proposed agreement. Mr. Bement said: I do not believe that any of the minor leagues will apree to the adoption of the proposed agreement. The minors passed a rule some time ago that they should be represented on the board of arbitration should a new national agreement be promulgated, but the major leagues have seen fit to ignore the minora in this respect. "The principal objection to the new agreement, however, is the drafting price as proposed. Fndcr the proposed agreement the major league clubs could draft players from the Central League clubs for $300 each, pitying only flOO in cash at the time the draft was made. It would cost the Central League clubs nearly Jl.OOO to fill the place of each player so drafted, yet the majors declare that they shall only pay one-third of the drafting price at the time the player is secured. The Central League will never agree to such terms. The minor leagues are now considering the agreement and I do not believe they will accept it as It now stands." President Bement said that the season of the Central League has been a financial pucce-i considering that It was the first season for that organization. r ort Wayne. Whf ling.

Announcement was made here to-day on apparently good authority that Mike Finn, manager of the Little Rock baseball team, would next year manage the Minneapolis American Association team. Baseball Notes. St. Paul comes to-morrow. Woodruff had his eye on the ball in the first game yesterday. Coulter's vacation from the hitting business has been a long and protracted one. The Hoosiers' three double plays in the rirst game took the ginger out of the Millers. Duggan has made good with the fans. He is a little fellow and the spectators gave him much encouragement in yesterday's game. President Johnson, of the Minneapolis club, says that he expects his team to win from Milwaukee in the last series. He said if Joe Cantillon plays it would be easy for the Millers. Crowley possesses a happy faculty of knowing how lo mix up hi.- assortment of curves. s;eed nnd slow balls. He had the Millers guessing yesterday. The fans are anxious to see him pitted against the Saiats this week. JOY RESULTED IN DEATH. onleprous Pntient's Heart Gave Way When lie Was Belensed. SAN JUAN. Porto Rico. Sept. 1. Jose Marrero. a noulcprous patient who was liberated from the leper colony as a result of the recent Investigation, died yesterday of heart disease, superinduced by joy at his release.

GOLFKRS DID OT TAKE VERY KIM) I V TO THE SYSTEM. Little Interest nnd Exeltement I) First Dny of C hampionahip The Leading Winners. GLENCOVE. L. L, S.nt. l.-Flndlay S. Douglass, the former amateur golf champion ;H. Chandler Egan, of Chicago, the prt sent intercollegiate champion: H. B. McFarland, the strongest golfer in the University of Pennsylvania, and Malcom McBurnie, who recently won the Stock Bridge Mass., Golf Club championship, were among the leading winners in the opening round to-day of the national amateur golf championship tournament on links of the Nassau Country Club. All but Egan won their matches handily. He met Lee T. Harban, of Washington, D. C. and hud a hard game from the start, wining by only one hole. Douglass made a runaway victory of his match with E. VW Alexander, of Detroit, wiuning by 1) up and S to play, Alexander failing to win a hole. McBurnie also won by a high score, defeating O. E. Stevens, of the local club, 9 up and 7 to play. McFarland had an easier victory than was expected with J. Whitney Baker, of Princeton, winning by 3 up and 1 to play. As four players defaulted their matches .only twenty-six of the 145 entries took part in the opening day's play of the United States Golf Association. The other 111, with the winners to-day, will play in the first round to-morrow morning. The change is due to the fact that the event this year for the first time in America is conducted at all match play. Although the officials were somewhat rettcant regarding the success of this new method, the general impression seemed to be against it. There was none of that Interest and excitement regarding the outcome, as has been customary on the first championship day. Ilotl of the players who drew bves were on the course practicing. Louis N. James, of Chicago, the present champion, and Walter J. Travis, the former title holder for two years, were among them. - WILL PLAY AT RICHMOND.

A recent letter of Colonial Secretary Chamberlain to a correspondent saying it was not necessary to answer the criticism of the Cobden Club, "which appears mainly to be supported by foreigners whose Interest it is that we should maintain our present system of free imports," has called out a sharp retort from the club in an open letter to Mr. Chamberlain, characterizing his statement as grossly inuccurate. The letter reminds .the colonial secretary that he was for many years a member of the club and that he is therefore perfectly well aware that the foreign members tnereor were only elected with the object of encouraging free trade In other countries and that they have no voice in controlling the policy of the club. Lord Roberts Will Not Come. LONDON. Sept. 1. Although Field Marshal Lord Roberta is still booked to sail for Boston on the Mayflower Sept. 23, it can now be definitely stated that he is not going to the United States this autumn. The alteration in his plans was necessitated by the postponement of the British army maneuvers until the midile of September, because of the bad weather, which has retarded the harvesting of the crops, and the situation in Somuliland, the War Office not wanting Lord Roberts to be absent while the new East African campaign is in preparation.
