SIR TDM LOSES THE LAST RACE

But the Tea Business Will Be Better Than Ever Henceforth BT FRANCIS J. "WHITt J '?TFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERVICE VETV YORK. Jjuly IS The crowning ' m ' , . . I entire OI yesirrusy 3 iviursi nivnr An-erica retains the premier position in the yachting world, was in keeping with the rest of the races, which can be summed up as a poor exhibition ot cne of the noblest and most skillful rports known to man. Had Resolute taken twelve minutes iTjtr to make the thirty mile course, it would have been declared no race. That had already happened twice previously and ineed the only time the race was worthy of the name was when the boats made a dead heat. The series of races has not proved what It was originally Intended, which i. the better all around boat. In a 1 ht wind the American was superior, but light winds are held in righteous contempt by the sportsman who loves a "wet sheet and a flowing sail."' In the wind In which the boats sailed rxrTy race did not call for anything like that and indeed could have been participated in at any time by elderly ladies. With the captains it was different. Charles Francis Adams, the Boston failing master, proved time and again ' h knew more about Resolute than V,':;iiam Burton did of Shamrock. Ttj-s Tankee had been sailing his boat for years, the Englishman six weeks. Hut Burton's slowness in action when r.e could have gained by it, and his . lack of Judgment generally, 'was ap- . palling and rtf doubt they do things that way in England.- But Charley Afiams played the biggest prt in re- - talning American cup. Already a "race to Bermuda or along I-ong Island has say.

Then she has completed her rac. . ing. The Shamrock and Resolute are ""' ready for the junk man. N'o account of America's cup in modirrn times would be complete without reference to that red blooded sportsmn. Sir Thomas Upton He was cIoPe to the flnishinc lire Isst night and the moment Resoluta i i-js-ea ir ana tne atmosphere sound-! de crazy with whistles and sirens, the ironefs boat.

The! i. fnman was a bit blue over the reover the reun. wnicn was foresern four hours si.'-fore it arrived, but his irrepressible Irish smile lit up his tanneif fra h...' as he said: "Why. of course, the best boat won.

July 27. .Tack Johnson's h-pe of eary freedom under bond was considerably dimmed tonight after every effort of his friends and attorneys to ibiain his release had failed. Indications are that the ex-world's heavy weight champion, who fled to Europe six years ago after being con vic'.cd of violating the Mann act. may rcmain.ln the Will county jail at Joliet for a month. Judge Samuel Alschuler of the United ta;es District court, today refused to b-ar ' an application foifjjfcail bvause Judge Carpentier who sentenced Johnson 13 in tho city and the rase should come before him. Judge Carpentier who is recovering from an operation performed last week told Johnson's ntlorneys he might not be back to his ffHce for a month or more. At tho Joliet jail "Li'l Arthur" held court today. Early in tho morning a largo crowd gathered outside and the negro w-as permitted to come to th goor to be seen.

The tournev I ts the championship rlsy for the states of Indians, Ohk and Kentucky. The tournament orlRtnated In Cincinnati and was held there for several years, then was heltj in Iouisville, Ky., later in Indianapolis and for th" past few years has ten an annual affair of the rort Wjivne C!ntin?rv I'tuS TVira are j-our events, the men's slnsdes and ,.k,mni.kln . 7"',"' ......... .. ... minifies and doubles title. The trophy in the men's singles ! a ;olid silver bowl, known as the "Cincinnati trophy," which has beon up for several years. The rules require that the cup be von by one person three times, not necessarily three successive years. To date there are severel tennis players throughout the Vnited States I. H. Nationals Beat Local N. Side A. C. The Indiana Harbor Nationals in srlte of the fact that they were playing on a strange diamond took thelong end of a 7 to 5 game from the North Side A. C of Hammond. However, they were given a slight shiver of apprehen- j sion as to the final result' of the game when the North Siders. going into the. ninth inning at the short end of a 7 to 2 score peeled off severa hits in succession, bringing their score to 5. Their rally subsided, however, without any further damage being done. Perhaps the outstanding feature of the sarne wa the A-l pitching of Cy Owery. who was hurling his first game and a very good game at that for the Nationals. This chunky Hurler had a great deal of speed and a world of surprise in his curves and he was so ood that ha struck out the first six ineri in tne first and second mnines ana toammites gave him extraordinary support, making only one error in the whole game. This was made by Buckeye, the Nationals second baseman, but he redeemed himself later by knocking a timely triple with two men on base. Benson, in left field, twice prevented the Hammondites from increasing their score by gobbling up difficult flics and by a coincidence in each instance there were two men on base and two down. Lucas, center fielder, amused the spectators slightly by performing a juggling act of a hard fly. The inin Id, colli prised of Lott. Michael. Buckeye and Gordon, presented a stonewall defense throughout the game and several difficult and fancy stops were made by these men Business began with a loud bang in tho fourth when Harris. Michae!. Lucas and Owery singled in succession, two runs resulting. They went at it again in the lucky seventh, when Buckeye and Lott cracked singles and were sent ,m v.,- w ,-.-. t m waion w-. scored later on Michael's single. The ninth inning found them still in a-batting mood, two singles and Buckeye's triple resulted in two runs, bringing their total to 7 runs. The rally was extinguished, however, when tha Hammondites without further ado executed n fat triple play. Tho North Sidcrs in the meantime had made only two runs, one each in the ' t third and fourth and as stated above j scored three in the ninth. The Nationals baseball team would j like to hear from some fast teams av- j craging 17 to IS. so as to arrange a. game for next Sunday.

Stellar Drivers In Big Race SPECIAL TO THC THUS! CHICAGO, July Z. The Elgin National road raco on August SI. has assumed a national importance which has been absent from it since the discontinuance" of stock car racing several years ago. This year's race assumes the importance of the real road racing championship of America and has. accordingly, brought together the most impressice field of entrlea which has graced an affair of the kind since 19i:i. Anard of championship point by the American Automobile association haa brought about this result. . Elgin is now the only road race of country wide Interest held In the United Mates. In the days of the Vanderbllt and Grand Prix races. Elgin waa held ae of secondary importance to theea features, but is now the only real road race of the year. Santa Monica Interest is limited chiefly to the raclfie coast and seldom draws as good field as the mid-western classic.

This year's field at Elgin is unquestionably the best which has entered for the last flvo years. With more than thrco weeks in which to securn further entries, the Chicago Motor club, which is financing this year's venture, has already secured the nominations of Gaston Chevrolet. Tommy Milton and Jimmy Murphy, the men who rank one, two and three in the A. A. A. point Ftar.ding at present besides a number of ot(?er stellar drivers. Aniojlg these latter are Ralph le Raima.
