NEW YOItK, Doc. 8. Tho Indoor cyda
racing season was Inaugurated at llio
Madison Squaro Garden tonight under the
nusrilccs of tho Araerlcnn Cycling associ
ation. Tho Lonrd track, nt an nnglo of
forty-five degrees, was banked nt the turns
and although there were a number of spills
no serious Injury resulted. Several sprints
and match races wero on tho card, Major
Taylor beating Tom Cooper In best two out
of threo heats. Tho raco of tho ovenlng,
however, was that between Jimmy Michael
and Will StltiBou. Tho dlstanco was fifteen
alios,
Notwithstanding the fact that Michael's
pacing machine broku down In tho lattci
part of tho raco, when tho "Welsh Rare
bit" was four laps to tho good, Michael, In
a terrific finish won otit by threo laps, hav
ing lost ono lap by tho breaking down of
Ms pacing machine, Michael covered tho
fifteen miles In 27;S6 2-C.
At flvo minutes nftor midnight tomorrow
night tho six days' International bicycle
rnco will bo begun at tho Garden with rep
resentatives from Knglaml, Germany,
France and other Huropcan countries, and
also tho representative six-day pluggcra of
tho United States.
.lion Itldr vlth Itrt'klrnsnpnn.
The board track on which tho wheelmen
rodo Is tho highest banked track aver built
In tho vicinity. On tho turns It Is raised
to a Blnnt of 46 degrees and tho riders
havo to keop going at a terrific paco In
order to maintain thrJr equilibrium. Tho
preliminary "stunts"rounJ tho track, In
which nearly ovcryono of tho contests nts
took part, woro brlmfull of accidents, none
of which wero nt a serious nature. Tho
majority of tho men rodo with a ruckless
noss that showed thuy were absolutely
afraid of nothing that might transpire.
Hairbreadth escapes from serious collisions
wero In ovldenco nil through tho prelimi
naries, but fortunntoly everybody was
found to bu Intact notwithstanding tho
sovoral spills when the regular program of
racing was begun.
Tho first event was a half-mllo rnco In
twolvo hents, tho winners of which qualified
for tho finals. Thcso trials woro spirited
In every Instnnco and none of thoso who
qualified won by more than a wheel's
length.
Tnylup Defcntn Caliper.
Major Taylor, tho negro bicyclist, then
tried conclusions with Tom Cooper In n
nillc-hfat match rnco and tliu negro won
tho first heat by thirty yards
A onu-mtlo amateur handicap In hontu
was tho next number on tho progrnm
Between tho sixth nnd soventh trial heata
of this contest, Jimmy Michael took n
warming spin, and tho "midget" held tho
motor so closoly throughout tho mllo that
his wbcol nnd hlmHclf seemed to bo part
of tho pacing machine. Tho little fellow
was generously applauded for hlo wonderful
exhibition
Louts Glmni, tho six-day rider, passed
Tayl)r and Cooper In the uecond heat of
their match race. Glrom paced them for
even laps and tho negro hold to tho pace
all tho way nnd then Olmtn cut off Taylor
on the left for tho three remaining laps
and won by ubout n yard after a bruising
raco In tho flnul lap In 2:08 1-5. Taylor
won two straight heats nnd won tho raco.
J. II. Hunter of Nownrk, N. J., won tho
final heat of tho half-mllo raco In tho in
door national championship by threo lengths
from Vuncotto of this city, win was nbou
tho sr mo dlstanco ahead of Gus Wclslug
of tho Harlem wheelmen.
Lester Wilson of I'lttshurg, with an nl
lowauco of fifteen yards, won tho chnm
plonshtp ono-mllo handicap In hollow
stylo by forty yards nnd his work on tho
wheel was worthy of th'o honors It brought
him.
Mletmel nntl Ktlnnnii It nor.
Tho enrd wound up with n fifteen-mile
motor paced raco between Jimmy Mlcbaol
und W. C. Stlnson, world's one-hour record
holder.
In tho first attempt by Michaol nnd Stln
son to begin their raco Michael was hit by
BtltiRon's pacing machine and ns tho rules
called for tho raco to bo begun ngaln should
an accident occur to cither rider during tho
first mile, tho contest wan started nnow.
Michael was cut on tho left arm by his
falling on tho track, but tho midget got on
bio wheel In a minute. They started again
In less than two minutes nnd Michael wns
very fast. In tho first half mile Michael
had an advantage of half n lap on Stlnson,
wht failed to catch his pace, und It was not
until tho second mllo that Stlnson cnught
up. Michael's paco Increased In tho third
mllo and In tho fourth ho lapped Stlnson.
The paco was terrific nnd tho little fellow
siemcd to fly around his fourth mile, cover
ing It In 1:412-5. Michael kept shouting
"More pace! go quicker!" while the crowd
jelled hysterically and the raco was as good
as won by tho little Welshman from this
point. Tho tlmo for five miles was 8;G1 4-6
and this tells tho story of tho raco as to
nrecd. Stlnron was unable to keep up with
his racing machine and lost It repeatedly.
Michael gained nnothcr lap In tho sixth
mllo. Tho paco wns not no fast In tho
seventh mile, which was ridden In a 1;S0
clip, with Mlchnel threo laps ahead.
