William tlu Pont, whose rnnic Is sus
restlve of untold millions, cot n real liar
tln at a horse Bale "nulled oft" here this
afternoon by Charles It Hamilton, and
tmlled a broad grin of satisfaction as It
the money saved really meant something
to him.
Due to the drenchlnR early morning tnlna
nJ soggy turf, the horso show here was
not called until 2 o'c'oclt. the, majority of
toiy' hunting and Jumping events having
been postponed until tomorrow morning
Hampton's sale proldcd n fortunate di
version to the early comers, who were dis
appointed at the postponement
Du ront's bargain consisted of the pur
chase of Cas Melbourne, a brown mare,
for which he paid $200 ami which was
valued at $1000
Disgusted at the dilntory bidding Ham
ilton withdrew the temalnder of his studs,
after halng been offered $1:.0 for Tire
fipark and Bantam King, supeib ponies and
blue ribbon winners in this ranntr and
England but Hamilton refused to tnle less
than 12300 a price net after the auction
by Miss Amy du Pont, who procd herself
not In the bargain class with her father
The afternoon's program was rIvimi oer
tor the most part to the dlsplaj of hack
nejs, such prominent New Yorkers as "Reg
Kle" Vandcrbllt (' A nnudoulnc, Richard

ery," winning first honors In the cUs for
two year old
In the children s events one alwavs wishes
that a system could lie devised In- which
there could be enough ribbons to distribute
to alt of the entrants
When the ten voungsters drove their
little carts into the arena for the ponv event,
It was with the knowledge that onlv four
of them could be made happy They were

Ashton and Man Kllzabeth Altemus, ntul
they handled the reins with the savior falre
of their elders

Even ducks and horse shows sometimes
Come In out of the rain, but not for long
Old Jupe Pluvius did his best this morn
ing to spoil the third dav of the show He
sent down heavy torrents wh'ch made the
green turf wet and soggy nnd taxed the pro
tecting canvass over the stands to the ut
most. Later he followed the deluge with a
fine mist, Insldlius and penetrating
But despite his best efforts a sprinkling
of horso lovers in Bilosb.es nnd i.ilncoats
nere on hand ear):- hoping tint the morn
ing 'events would be pulled off, unfavorable
weather conditions notwithstanding
William T Hunter, chalrrrnn of the
board of governorj after looking over the
ground carefully handed down the vet
diet of postponement of all lumping events
The best entries of the meet were on
this mornings schedule nnd the owners
of prlze-wlnring animals were unwilling to
risk the dangers of hurdling on a soft,
muddv turf
The afternoon was given over to the
honing ot the hackneys
Judge William II Moore, who ran away
with most of the honors joterday, captur
ing seven blues and two reds, and Miss
Constance Vauc'air who alwavs Is n close

TWINING BALKS PLAN OF
TRANSIT REFERENDUM
Refuses to Prepare Statement of
City's Objection to Pro
posed Lease
WILLING FOR A DEBATE
Will Submit Chamber of Commerce's
Proposal to Mayor Smith Before
Final Decision
The plan of the Chamber of Commerce to
hold a refeieiidiini of the entire, member
ship on the Philadelphia Itnpld Transit
Conuian.v's lt-ae proposal struck an un
expected sn f today Transit Director
Twinning, who was linked b the chamber
to summart7i the cltv's objections to the
leas In an nitlcle of 1000 woids, llatly
icfued to do so
The D'uctoi s principal leason for refus
lug was that the Chamber of Coniineice
bad asked two mill 12111s Ames Kalian!,
Lounsel for the compam. and A Jlerrltt
Tax lot. formei Transit Director, who are
In favor of the pioposcd lease, to prepare
articles while the chamber hid onlv asked
one man who was opposed to the lease
The director further objects to this
method of deciding the question He said
he would be glad to appear at a meeting of
the fu'l membership of the Chambei of
Commeice nnd debate the trans't lease with
anv man or men whom 'ts piopomnts mn)
choose tn defend it He said he would
show the letter fiom the Chamber of Com
merce signed bv N II Kcllj Its setretai.v,
to Major Smith, hefcie deciding what
answer was to be made
The chamber, which Is Philadelphia's
largest and most influential organization of
business men. has had the proposed transit
lease under consideration for three months
The p alter has been discussed at meetings
of the executive committee and of the pub
lic utilities committee, the latter having
heard all the principals In the controversy
outline their views upon the merits and
demerits of the offer Unable to come to
any unanimous opinion however, the offi
cers of the organization decided upon the
referendum as tl.e fairest and most satis
fnctorj way of determining the policy of
the body.
Just how- the views of the leading pro
ponents and opponents of the company's
offer would have been laid before the mem
bers of the Commerce Chamber for their
vote had not hen determined dcflnitelv.
Although there were to be two articles In
dorsing the lease as against one opposing
it, the ollicers of the chamber feel that they
were doing Justice to tnth sides In the con
troversy A Joint meeting of the executive commit
tee and the publ'c utilities committee had
been called bv President IJrnest T Trigg
for next Tuesday afternoon, when the de
tails of taking the referendum vote was to
be worked out I2ach of. the men was asked
to have his article completed and ready to
submit by Tuesday noon
, Mr. Taylor Informer the chamber that
he will follow Its request and submit an
article. Mr Ballard said that he would
take the matter up with President Thomas
E. Mitten, of the company, later today.
