The weather was
all that could have

tcndancn was very goeu indeed , iho south
wing of the grand stand being llllcd with en
thusiastic devotees of the track , nnd
the quarter stretch presenting a picturesque
nppearanco with Its scores and scores of firio
turnouts front both sides of the bridge. Tbo
attendance of ladles was very largo , and as
they nru admitted free , the management
bopes for even a hotter turnout today and the
two days to como.
The track .yesterday couldn't have boon in

Ignis Fntuus , by the consent of the judges
was drawn , having Just got in from Kansas
City. Tlio word was given on the fourth
scoring , with Fnnchoon setting the pace.
On iho llrst turn she Increased
lior lead to a lonuth nnd
and a half , which she maintained until the
half , when Nova Sooly , Brother Dan nnd
Ouolph nil pulled up in u bunch. At the
three-quarters Nova Soely nud Brother Dan
passed Funcheon , with Uuelnb well uplon Uor
wheels. . Tlio brush down the stretch was u
uood one. Nova Seoly winning b/ about a
' half length the best of Dan and ? wo liuigths
the best of Funcheon. Tlmo , 2:20.t. : !
The second heat was started with
the horses on oven terms. On
the quarter Nova Soely pulled
her nose out of the ruck , with Guelph push
ing her hard. At the quarter this pair led
by a length with other four bunched. In this
order the three quarters were trotted , Sooly
being incapable of Improving her vantage.
It was another close und exciting llnlsh , all
the horses pulling up In a slanting line.
Within 100 yards of the wire Neva Solly in
creased her lead to a length. Guelph leaving
bis feet , and in this way they finished ,
Brother Dan second , Guelph third , Clara P.
fourth"Moody fifth , Fanchoon sixth. Time :

They Wore AVnrmlnj ; Up.
The third boat was the exciting heat of the
raco. After scoring several u scud oft was
secured , Nova Soely showing .front by the
smallest possible margin , Brother Dnu being
right at her throat-latch. Guelph , too , was
tiottintr peed aud strong , und Clara Pand
Moody both showing better form than in any
of the previous heats , At the half Nova
broke badly and Dan ana Guelph both
'
beaded her'but in' rounding Into the stretch
the three were abreast. Tlio brush homo
was a lively onp , Nova getting her
nose in the van nnd keeping it there ,
'only by the most strenuous effort , Clara P
second , Guolph third , Moody fourth and
Brother Dan lifth. There were loud cora-
nlalnta of foul driving , nnd after much de
liberation the judges placed the horses as
follows : Clara P first , Nova Sooly second ,
Moody third , Guelph fourth , Function fifth
and Brother Dan last. Tlmo : 2.UK- :
The judges put Bob Kneobs behind Guolph
in the fourth heat , but the best ho could do
was to gut lu fourth. Clara P took the
lead at the sendpff , although hard
prossou all the way 'round by Neva Soely
nnd'Brother Dan. There was some dospor-
ald driving , but none were equal to the tusk
of heading the little chestnut mare , who
came down the homo stretch nnd on In under
the wire llko n hurricane. Tlmo : 2:24. :
Couldn't Finish tlio Knee.
Thnro was an endless amount of trouble In
getting off In the llfth heat and it was past
sundown when Starter McElroy bucoeocted in
getting them in equitable shape for the word.
Finally , however , after the patience of the
crowd had been taxed to the limit , the wel
come signal "go" broke upon the air , and
the rcsilvu livers wont away at a tremendous
clip. Fnncucon , to the astonishment of everyone
ono , bursting to the front like a meteor. At
ttio quarter she led by fully three lengths
the best of Clara P nnd Moody , while Neva
Secly and Gnelph bad fallen to the rear.
Fanchoon kept up her terrific pace and came
thundering down the homo stretch 'way In
the load , the crowd cheering to the echo as
she shot unuur the wire , as her feat was as
extraordinary ns it was unexpected. The
heats thus being split up , ami darkness com
ing on apace , the judges announced that the
race would bo postponed until I'JiIH ) today ,
when the struggle will bo decided. The pool
box was n sufferer by reason of Fanchoou's
performance , and the man who can pick the
winner this morning will bo n coed ono in
deed. Summary so far as completed :

NiswYouit , Oet. 20. TUora promises to
bo considerable trouble before all tbo No w
York player * sign for noit year. The first
ono to object li "Orator" O'Rourko. His
nimo was loft off the reserve list aud" every
body wondered what was tbo mutter. Tha
general impression was that ho had either
signed for uoxt year or had promised to da
so when the tlmo comes. It turns out , how
ever , that President John B. Day sent
O'Rourko's nnrao to Secretary N. 13. Young1 ,
along with the names of the ether players to
be reserved. By some mistake when the
bulletin of reserved playor.i was made pub
lic his name wai omitted. President Day
immediately wired Secretary Young to
know what was the reason the "Orator's"
was loft off. The answer was that a blun
der had boon made and that In the next ofll-
clut bulletin the mistakn would ha rectified ,
O'Rourko , according to the Herald's base
ball writer , saw the printed list and was
happy. But whoa ho met President Day
bis facial expression was a sight to beholden
on belnj ; told tnat ho bad been reserved. Ho
objected to the proceeding , but President
Day told him that tno Now York club bad no
Intention of letting him go. Then ho com
plained of such treatment , nnd said that
when ho signed last spring ho wts promised
that ho would not bo reserved. President
Day ted ! him ho could not help that , nnd If
nny such cromUo was given ho know nothing
of It , According to league rules O'Rourko
can do nothing. Ills name was sent In nnd
that makes nlm n reserved player.
President Uay tried hard to sign John Ew-
itig yesterday for next seaion. They iirtd
quito a "spat , " John wanted more salary
than ho received last season. Ho was told
that , ho could not have as much of nn " 117
creaio n's ho desired. Then ho came out llat-
footed nnd said ho would not sign.
"Why , I'll lonvo for homo tomorrow , " ho
exclaimed , "and not even wait till tha sea
BOH closes on the ; tOtb. "
Ho wn * engaged last spring because ho
was "Buck's" brother , but ho managed to
surprise oven his best friends by his clover
work. Ho was wanted ns on emergency
pitcher. When all the others were laid up
ho jumped in and pitched wonderful ball
right along. Whether ho will leave for homo
today Is a question. It Is oven money , how
ever , that bu will stay nnd have another
Valk with President Day , who is at last man
aging Iho club's nlTalrs without any Chicago
assistance.
Pitcher Sullivan signed n contract yester
day with President Day. Ho is a youngster
who was picked up in Boston f.y Manager
Mil trio und who caused some persons who
pretend to know something about basnball ,
but who don't , to ask who ho was , His ex
perience in the Atlantic association and Now
Knglnnd league did him good and tils work
In the fames ho pitched the lost week for tbo
Now Yorks was such as to warrant the club
In holding on to him. Ho is considered u
"comer" of the Rusiu typo nnd ho himself is
confident of doing well next season.
Koss ( hnllcn cH Copple.
I understand that Mr. C. H. Copplo of Ban
croft Is nesltous of matching n race with mo
at 100 yards distance for the sum of $100 a
side. Now if Mr. Copplo Is as anxious to
match a race as ho appears to ho from his
talk hero is a chance for him to replenish his
pocket , as I now hnvo deposited in the bands
of the sporting editor of Tan BEH $25 as a
guarantee of good faith , and if Mr. Copplo is
not satisfied will accept any good , responsible
man for stakeholder and lot him ( the stake
holder ) appoint referee , and will run him in
Omaha , at fair grounds , on nny suitable day ,
start to bo mutual consent , I will belicva
Mr. Copplo wants n race when bo deposits
hLs money and will not pay any attention to
him unless ho is willing to match and run
race at once ; Saturday the 2-lth , will suit mo.
Hoping Mr. Copplo has not changed , his mind
and will deposit his money at once , I remain ,

out from all parts of Canada , Moxiua and the
United States , and they had mat to discusr.
mattoM of Interest to the health of the pja-
plool Urn two graat ropu biles and the Hrltlsh
domain of the north Amarlc.in continent.
When t.ho convontlon wai called to order
Dr. Irving A. Watson , secretary of the asso
ciation , Dr. Henry D. llornboek , second vice
president , nnd the members of the local com
mittee , occupied the platform with the presi
dent , Ilov. iJr. S. M. NoJl , pastor of thn
Central Presbyterian church , opancd the
proceedings with prayer.
Dr. J. Perrlon Llnusav of Nashville , Tonn. ,
treasurer , submitted his" report , showing the
financial affairs or the association to bo In n
satisfactory condition. The report was referred -
forrod to the auditing committee.
Fifty now members were olectad to tnu
association and theu the reading of papers
was begun.
Dr. C. D. McDonald of Kansas City read
the llrst paper. "Its subject was "Tho Causes
nnd Preventing of Inlant Mortality. " Ho
advocated the avoidance of exposing Infanta
to low temperatures , of forcing sleep by
soothing syrups ana nourishing infants with
other than the food designed by nature.
Dr. Joseph Sharp , professor of therapeu
tics in the Kansas City Medical college , road
a paner on "Ulandors In Man. " Ho citcc : an
Instance whcro a case of glanders in man was
fully developed.
Hon. Albert II. llorton , chief justice of
the Kansas supreme court , followed with an
address "The of Moro
on Necessity String
ent Legislation to ftopress Empiricism. "
Empiricism , ho said , was ono of the worst
obstacles in the path Of the progress of medi
cine. There were a few learned uiombors of
the empirical school , but the most of the
empirics were montobanks , wandering
quacks , totally ipnorunt of the science of
mouicino. There could bo no doubt tliat the
practice of these empirics was a harm to any
community and they should bo repressed.
The legislatures of the various states had the
. power to roit'ilato ' empiricism in medicine ,
and it was their duty to provide such regula
tions.
A vote of thanks was ox'tondcd to Justice
Horton for his paper.
> Alton Ha/.en of Lawrence , Mass. , road a
paper on "Water Supply and Public Health. "
The paper dwelt on the necessity of pure
water supply. At the conclusion of the dis
cussion following the reading of the paper ,

president took for the subject of his address ,
"Cleanliness is Next to Godliness. " Ho
urged physicians and all these who had to do
with the public health to pay more attention
'
to'.tho prevention of diseases. Cleanliness
was n great preventive , anrt ho pleaded for
clean water , clean food , clean streets , clean
sewers and clean homes.
At the conclusion of the address the con-
voution adjourned until tomorrow morning.

Cmruoo , 111. , Oet. 20. A confidential circu
lar has been Issued to agents by Peter McDonnell
"
Donnell , general as-ont of tho" Now York ,
Ontario .t Western railroad , notifying thai.i
that commissions will bo paid on nil prepaid
orders secured by them on transcontinental
passenger business. This notion has cioatod
n good deal of aurprUo and comment. The
Now York , Ontario it Western is n member
of the joint committee nnd ono of the roads
over which the board of rulings Is supposed
to have direct control , U is ono of the trunk
lines that signed the agreement to way no
commissions itself aud to do no business with
n.ty other road that does.
Air. McDonnell , It appears , did not sign
thn confidential circular as agent of the On
tario it Western road , but as representing
the Old Dominion Steamship company , but
ns both companies nro represented by him it
will bn dllllcult to make anybody bollvo that
iho commissions nro not offered on behalf of
tbo railroad. What the board of rulings will
do about it is n question that is agitating
the Western Passenger circles. The board
has just notified western lines that they
must not pay commission * to western agents
working In custom territories nor will It
allow eastern roads that have solemnly
agreed not to pny commissions anywhere , to
pay them in western territory.
The correspondence between Trnfllo Mana
ger Busonlmrk of the Chicago , St. Paul it
Kansas City road and Chairman Flnloy of
the Western Passenger association , relative
to tbo former's ' claim against the Chicago ,
Milwaukee it St. Paul company still gtos ou.
Mr. BiHonhark insists that his company i
entitled to sa.OKI , either from the St. f'aul
company or the association , that amount
representing loss of revenue occasioned by
the competition of the St. Paul In the
Dubuque excursion lost April , which Chair
man I'lnloy authorized at tlio tlmo but after
ward decided to bo illegal. Mr. Finloy re
fuse * to sanction the claim on the
ground that it was not presented within the
tlmo specified in the articles of agreement
but reminds Mr. Busunbark that he can ap
peal to arbitration.
It Is probable that unless stops are speed
ily taken to bring about a settlement of this
claim the Chicago , St. Paul it Kansas City
line will take the case into the courts. A
mooting of the board of commissioners of the
Western Traffic association will ho hold in
St. Louis , October 27 to hoar arguments con
cerning the proposed removal from the juris
diction of that association of certain Colorado
aud Utah traffic.
