Comment on Turf and Other Tuple and General Sportiur Ncw SPOUTING To PIGS Two minute harness horse advocates are coming nearer the realization of their hopes and prophecies every week of late and itwill not be surprising to see a horse step Inside of 2:01 before the season closes Rob ert has made the greatest stride toward the coveted mark of any of them this year and in the last three weeks he has created havoc with tradition by chopping two and a half seconds from the record held jointly by Mascot and lying Jib At ort Wayne the gelding went in 2:03 and then in the match race with Joe Patchen at Indianapo lis he made a mile in 2:02 His next re duction was at Terre Haute on the famous 2:04 track where both Nancy Hanks and made their records and in a flight ngainst the watch he reeled oft a mile in 2:01 riday As he has no really fast tracks to strike until he reaches Lexington it is not likely that Robert will make mother attempt with any hope of success on the part of his owner until Lexington is reached' and then if the old track is In shape he may get a little nearer the even The gelding is certainly a superior Individual and the greatest pacer that ever lived and although it may be easy for him to beat Joe Patchen and John It Gentry in gi race every week in the season he has but rt shade on them in the matter of speed Sensations as a rule have come from the lateral galled fellows this year as trotters Moux city Won In a (rent nurrj StoBx City the series of the Beatxi In this city with record breaking cawt It took but an hour and twenty minutes for the cbam pkM to whitewash the locals and they did it in a brilliant fieidUs game The Detroit acted as though they were not oq speaking terms with each other and played accordingly Tears pitchedri balh but the rUltors won fairly because the Detroits could not locate Hart curves at any stage of the game tour single made by three men are all that were recorded against the win nlnr pitcher of the Buskers

once or twice always recovered In time to throw Us man out lie accepted all chances while lioiohan dug eight groundera out of the mud and was a stcoe wall in his territory first base play ing was splendid Itaymond made one exceptional stop and Hart fielded hl pewition finely It did not seem xxsslble to play at 2 clock but the grounds dried out In time for beginning ut 3:30 cluck Around the home plate and near third there was a sea of mud base stealing was out of the question Unless a man hit coe through the field be had little chance to beat it uui Everett opened with one too hot 0 Rourke to handle but went out when Campau slammed a liner into McCauley York beat out a little ily but Earl forced him out The champions never cot a man as far as first and Detroit met with the tame fate in the second Tide time however Sioux City scored on Stewart's Ions three bageer and Dooley's high throw to catch him at the plate Detroit drew the regular cipher in the third and Hocriever bat ted out a two baer to right which Earl misjudged 'amp followed with a line hit for two bases scoring Hogrievrr Genins hit a sharp one to Raymond who put Camp out on the line and Everett made a great one handed stop of grounder throw ing him out at first York again made a hit in the fourth but be never got past first base' In the last half bit a laian one to left and made second on the carom Kraus sent him home with a single Campau throw ing to the plate but jantzeu seeing it was t' late to catch O'Rourke threw to second catching Kraus who tried to stretch bls bit into two bases Glen alrln's

herself to be a faster race horse than Directum but has not beaten the record made by Nancy Hanks two years ago the twentieth of this month It is thought she has the ability to turn the trick any time herself and track are in equally good condition and it is possible she may make some reduction in the trotting record before the year is ov In the colt classes the trotters have done nicely ard Michigan has gathered in two representative stakes in such a manner as to make other states a little tired The first real sensation in the way of stake racing was on the new Grosse Pointe trackwhen Dancojirt the pride of the Kalama zoo farm marched oft with first division of the Horseman stake for 4 ear olds (pposed to him were such great ones as wistful Nemoline Margrave and Silicon but they could not successfully negotiate with the stout son of Ambassador in a race Tills feature had scarcely been for gotten in the mass of news that pours into the brain daily as he unfolds Ids morning paper when trotted nway with the Horse Review stake for 3 year olds at Terre Haute This young fellow is by Pilot Medium the great Battle Creek stallion and promises to be the best one ever got by the sire of Jack and so many other tried and true trotters In giving Michigan these two rich and Important stakes Dancourt and have called the attention of the whole trot ting world to the breeding industry of this etale the importance of which has been known to every horseman hereabouts for years One after another has been added id stock of royally bred indi viduals until the stud in this state is as acceptably filled as any state in the coun try The death of Electioneer and his two sons Palo Alto and Whips and the remov al of Sidney to Michigan have robbed Cali fornia of the stallions that were puttingthat state In front in the breeding of trot ters The successful sons of Electioneer nnl George Wilkes the greatest sire ever produced by Happy Medium and other stallions in service in this state have ad ded so rapidly to their toll of honor that even the blue grass regions of Kentucky have nothing to boast of nowadays and the transplanted stallions In the eastern Mates find those In the changeable climate of Michigan getting more speed than them selves by a large percentage The larger cities of the state have encouraged breed ing greatly by frequent meetings and liberal purses and everything being favorable Michigan has advanced until the state easily outranks any in the northern part jof the United States Baseball has but two weeks more in which to draw the attention of the public pend when the last national league game lias been played the most successful sea son the game has had In years will have closed Baseball died through the mech anism of a few hot headed cranks who backed the brotherhood movement but was brought back Into the calendar of Ameri can sports by the wise management of the men at the head of national league affairs In rounding the public to after an estrange ment" for two years these club owners (found it necessary to make a material re duction in salaries and it was close to £0 per cent as a rule It had the desired effect and allowed the backing of clubs certain financial loss on the part of those who Invested their money in the en terprise Under the guidance of these men the game has grown until the middle and eastern states can support three leagues nil of which are making money for them selves and considering the business depression this year baseball will come out of it very lucky Detroit formerly a leading city in the big league wended its way back into the game this year and has worried along with a verv poorly run team Had a club as good as Sioux City Kansas City or Toledo been put here the game would have been very popular and the manager would have made money for himself As it is he did better than any other city In the league would have done with as poor a team and this demonstrates that Detroit is ready for something really good in the line of base ball Until this year it would have been follv to try and resuscitate the interest that has been in a trance in this city since 1S83 Mr Derbeck just struck it rignt but he has made a mistake in exercising too much economy in the running of his team Detroit teams have paid goodly sums for players in the past and have made money out" of the venture and there was an op portunity to spend some money early In the season and make a good team of the aggregation that has been placing losing ball every time it went away from homexcept once The western league ends Sep tember 25 and it isprobable that Mr Van will put a good team in next year back after reaching second as though the aide were out and was run down the bleachers giving him an awful roasting as he walked to the bench Sioux City made two hits but did not get a man as far zs second Sharp fielding characterized both halves at the sixth the only runner reaching first being Holohan who got a tase on balls Both sides got one on first in the seventh but that was all In the eighth was hit on the left hand by a pitched ball and a finger was smashed lie went tack and made a hit but Everett could not advance him any The visitors added one on an error by Janoten Genins hit safely and Stewart forced him Then Holehan rapped out a single put ting Stewart on third McCauley forced Holohan ami ran half way' down to draw the throw Jantzen lined the tall to Glenalvin who chased McCauley and when Stewart started for the plate he made a good return but Jantzen dropped it and stood on his head on the plate hurting himself somewhat O'Ronrke struck out and the jietrolts failed to get a base The score: DETROIT AB II A Everett 4 0 1 3 8 0 Campau 1 4 0 0 1 2 0 York 4 0 2 2 0 0 Earl 4 0 0 1 0 0
