On October 4, 1900. at the Outenberp, N. J., track. Long cped over the 440 yards In the sensational time of 47 sec onds flat. 8lnco that tlmo many athletoi have attempted to smash or even eiiual Lorg's feat, but thus far no one hai been successful. Kven Ted Meredith, the former University of Pennsylvania star, one of tho greatest quarter mllers and half mllers that ever trod a cinder path, was unable to gain this hjectlvo. Home critics believe that Shea, who ran a 47 3-5 seconds quarter on Franklin Field this spring, may do a 47 seconds quar ter before long. Ran An where In the opinion of Frank Farrell. the athletic coach at the University of Michigan, Maxey lying was the greateirt runner of them nil. Long didn't care where ho ran. what distances be ran, and In what kind of clothes he com peted In. According to Farrell, Long accepted Invitations to run In meets, but didn't even know the distances until he was on his mark. "I remember well one big meet." said the Michigan tutor the other day, "In a little Massachusetts town; Maxey was to run In the quarter-mile against a number of home talent who were pretty good steppers. Of course, we knew what Long could do, and we bet heavily on him. "I had not seen Long for a week, but when I had last seen him I asked him If he were going to run. He said he was, and that settled it. I told a few of my friends and we Journeyed to the town a few days In advance to get our money placed Home Talent on Hand "On the day of the race the home runners were the first to appear, dressed In running suits decorated with ribbons of all colors of the rainbow. I had not seen Maxey and began to get worried. I walked around the field nnd finally saw a fellow who looked like Long in tho distance standing under a tree. "As I came nearer t recognized him, and you can Imagine the feeling which camo over me when I found he hod no grip and apparently nothing to run In except his street clothes. I could see my money slipping, nnd u hard time to get back to New YorK. "'What's the matter?' I asked.

" "Tell "em I'm here and will be over In a minute,' Maxey replied. Track Uniform, Under Clothes "You can bet I hurried to the ref eree, told him of Long's presence nnd asked him to hold tho race a few min utes until I brought him to the mark. I rushed back to the tree where I had left Long and then found out what kind of a foot racer this fellow was. "He had removed his hat and coat and was just taking off his collar and necktie. I did not say a word, looking on in amazement. He sat down, took off his shoes, stood up, took off his outer shirt and there was his running shirt of the New York A. C. underneath. He took off 'his trousers and revealed his running trunks. "He sat there a moment, then picked up his trousers and pulled one spiked running shoe out of one hip pocket and Its mate from another. He pulled an old pair of socks which he used for punhers from a coat pocket. Drew Outside Position " 'There, I'm ready,' he said.) 'Where do we start?" "I told him, nnd he ran to the spot, limbering up a bltr After he had found his position on the pole, which happened to be on the outside, the worst position In tho raco, he did not say a word, but started to dig his starting holes In everyday fashion. I did not say a word to him, for I realized he knew what he was In the race for, nnd he knew we had money bet on him. "Maxey alwayo was prepared for a fast or slow guo, a thing which one had to bo ready for In those days. That the starter had rehearsed the start with the homo runners was apparent. for he had no sooner given the com- mand, 'Get set,' than bang, went the pistol. If they thought they were feolng to leave Mnxty flat-footed on the mark they were badly disappointed. "If anything, Long bent the gun, and, In the fii;st flhy yards, had gained the necessary, six feet advantage to cut In td tako the pole. There wns nothing to the race after that. Maxey Blmply breezed over the distance In :49 1-6, nnd left the field fifteen yards in the rear. "After the race Long loped over to the tree and put on his clothes as if he had been nothing but a spectator.

The national baseball Rgreenirnt between the Ameri can nnd National Leagues Is In danger of being abrogated as n reiuit of a suit filed In Common Pleas Court yesterday by Manager Connie MrcW, of the Athletics. t asking for an Injunction restraining the Boston Nntlonals from Interfering with his playing ntcher Scott Terry, awarded to tho Boston Nationals by a majority vote of tho National Baseball Commis sion. Common Tleas Judge Morgan granted the restraining order, nllowlnc the Ath letics full and uninterrupted use of Perry pending final hearing of the suit. Perry pitched for tho Athletics against Cleve land here yesterday Perry was p-ircharcd by Boston from tho Atlanta cun last year, partial imiv- ment being made. After eventeen-days or uencn nuiy i-erry leu ine uoslon ciun. tie was noi on me uoston e serve list last winter, and Mnnager Mnck signed him as a free agent nnd he Hitched three full games and Part of an other this season before tho Boston club put In h claim for htm, according to Manager Mack. Mack. Leave Cleveland The Athletics departed for home last evening, having neglected to accom plish what they visited the sixth city for to win one or two games front the Indians, Just as they did when the Indians dropped In at Shlbe Park Inst month. Connie Mack thought that, with Scott Perry, granted permission by Cleveland court yesterday, to continue pitching for the Athletics, In the box. his team would come close to grabbing the final game, ecpeclnlly ns Kohl was calling upon Stanley Caveleskle, who had had only two runs scored behind him In some thirty-five or thirty-six Innings prior to yesterday. And when the first Inning ended nnd showed a three-run dividend for the Athletics and nothing for tho Indians. It seemed certain that Covcleskle's Jinx wan still on the job. But the ball that Covey pitched during the next eight Innlngn was such as to discourage all the jinxes and hoodoos that ever Invaded a baseball field, as he allowed only three Mackmen to reach first during the rest of the game. Gardner twice and Oldrlng once. Gardner twice etrayed ns far as second. But all that sterling work in the box would have availed nothing had not the Indians managed to get next tu Perry'B rifle shotB over tho plate. The big fel low stopped the locals entirely for four Innings, slipped a trifle In the fifth and then exploded in the sixth, when three singles and a pass were backed up by a home run by Joe Kvans, all of which netted five runs and mado it rather easy for Coveleskle to smile once more, a habit that he had almost forgot. Superstition Again All the baseball superfluous were resorted to by tho IndlanH prior to the game In the effort to chaso the Cove leskle Jinx. The players refused to let President Jim Dunn even sit on the bench before tho contest started. Speaker spent his practice session In center field hunting for four-leaf clo vers. Steve O'Neill, who has caught every game that Coveleskle had pitched for Cleveland prior to today, was benched in favor of Chett Thomas, who never had caught the spltter before. It also was decided that the sacrifice hit should bo thrown Into the discard and more reliance made on tho straight away steals. Larry Gardner finally came through with some of the batting that always characterized his work In Cleveland when he was one of the lied Sox. He made two singles and a double and was robbed by Speaker of a hit on the other time up. These were the only lilts made by Larry during the series and, of course, had to come on a day when his teammates were not doing a thing with the ball. Dugan put up another brilliant game at second bahe In the last game of the series, accepting eleven of his twelve chances, hllpplng up In the final Inning on a hard chance. saa $&?.

For many carH the collegians have claimed the soccer title, nnd during moro recent years the Glrardlans cage team has been unbeatable. Former Coach McDermott always turned out a championship baseball team and this Jeoar is no exception to the general rule, for tho Glrard fact nine has laid claim to the scholastic championship, chal lenging West Philadelphia High School six different times. In the swimming under former Coach Bernard, Glrard has not a peer fn tho city, hating won both the senior and Junior championships last year. The only sport In which the collegians are not able to claim a title is the tennis team, which has only been added to Its sports this season. YESTERDAY'S RESULTS NATIONAL I.KAOt'B Phillies.

FAVORITES VICTORS IN NATIONAL TENNIS TILTS Miss Cassel Defeats Mrs. Rogge in Hard-Fought Match on Philadelphia Cricket Cluh Courts at St. Martins ATCHLS were run off with clock HUe regularity In the women's ten- nln championship of the t'nltcd States at the Philadelphia Cricket Club, St. Martins, yesterday afternoon. Twenty matches were played In the women's singles and six for the girls' championship of the L'nlted Stntes, a new event this year. The ilraiv was not a xerv good one. as In the first round some of the best play ers were drawn together, notably Mlsi Hleanor Oon nnd Mr. Haw son Wood, Miss Clare Cassel and Mrs. Johan Iloggc, Mrs J. F. Betz. 3d, nnd Mrs. H. B. Huff, and MIsm Marlon Klndersteln and Miss Mildred Wlllanl. Miss Cassel Triumphs Keieral matches were decidedly Inter esting, and the duel between Miss Cassel and .Mrs. Iloggn wns oiip of the best. Miss Cassel was a trifle the steadier in the first set and won, C-4, but In the following set Mrs. llogge rallied splen didly nnd wns somewhat unlucky not to make It set all. First one nnd then the other would obtain the lead, until seven all was called. Miss Cassel then broke through her opponent's service and, tak ing the next gnino on her own driving, slip won the set. 9-7, and the match. Miss Marlon Jlndersteln was given a rare good match by Miss Mildred Wll lanl, though the match was decided in Mi-night sets. Miss Willard was seen to considerable ndvantage In the first set, but nfter fiie-all was called Miss Zlnder stein settled down and won the next two. In the second set MIfs Willurd was not quite so good and met defeat, C-4 Miss Betz Victor Mrs. J. F. Betz, 3d. deserved great credit for her victory oier Mrs. H. B. Huff by 3 sets to 2. Probably Mrs. Betz was nervous in the first set, for she won only one game. In the next two slm Improved wonderfully and easily triumphed, 6-3, G-4. Miss Helen Ledoux and Miss Anne Townsend, of Merlon, pmicil well matched. Miss Townsend put up n good game in the first set nnd pulled through, !i-7. but in the next two sets her adier s.irj proied a trifle too good and she wns beaten, G-4, 61, The only other thrce-sct match of the afternoon was played between Miss Klizaheth Osthcinier, of Huntingdon Valley, and Miss Carolyn Otis. They were eenly matched Miss Osthelmer won tho first set. fi-4, but fell off in her play somewhat in the second set and was anqulshed. i-3. Miss Osthelmer then pulled through by winning the third set, 6-4. Easy for Miss Sears Miss Marlon Zlndersteln had a much easier match in the first lound than In I tile preliminary, ror she illsnosed or Mrs. II. F. Kerbaugh In straight sets. Mrs. Kerhaugh w Inning only one game. Miss Kleanora Sears, the champion of Pennsylvania and eastern States, re ceived a bye In the preliminary round and disponed of Miss flebccca Thomson In the first. G-0. 6-1. What was easily the best match In the girls' singles was played between Miss Klizabeth Strublng and Mtss Ade laide Hooker It would have been al most impossible to find a better matched pair, and MIhh Strublng deserves much credit for defeating her opponent by two sets to one. Five nil was called In the firM set be. fore Miss Strublng won nt 7-6 Mlsa Hooker took the second set at G-4, and she had more than one chance to win the third, but the pluck and perse verance of Mlts Strublng prevailed.
