Springfield established a good lead In

In the last inning had a streak of bat

IT WAS BETTS WATERLOO.
II Was Batted All Over the Lot by the
Providence Team.
Providence, Aug. 26. Providr-nee de
feated Wllkes-Barre today In the heav
iest batting game that has been played
here this season. Betts was pitching
for the visitors, and the drays ham
mered his delivery all over the lot and
out of it. In the sixth Inning, with
the score 8 to 1 against Wllkes-Barre
the visitors went at Dovetts' pitching,
and batted out Ave runs.
It looked as thought they were going
to wrest victory from the Grays, but
the latter went In and hammered
Betts harder than ever. Most of the
errors were made In the latter part of
the game when they cut no figure.
Doescher's umpiring disgusted
everybody, and some of his decisions
were so wrong that several wrangles
occurred. At first Providence got the
worst of It. but later the Wilkes-Barrel
suffered. Score:

realized, perhaps for the first time, that
he was a comlnir pitcher. There wer
many others who realized the same
thing. For nine long Innings he pitched
the sphere to the Toronto batters, and
scarcely one could get It beyond the In
field. For seven Innings Toronto was
retired in one, two three order, getting
but two men to first one on balls and
the other on a scratch single and both
were doubled up before reaching sec
ond. In the eighth a hit was made,
but Lake, who made It, was forced out
at second. Only In the ninth Inning,
when Delaney let down, did a Toronto
player get beyond first. Syracuse Post.

AFTER THE GREAT RACE.
ft Is tho One Toplo Now Dlsoussod In
Turf Circles.
New York, Aug. 26. The result of the
race for the Futurity Saturday forms
the leading topic of conversation among
the thousands Interested in me luri,
and particularly among horsemen.
That the best horse under the circum
stances won goes without saying, and
the victory of Requital Is another tri
umph for his capable trainer, John lly
land. He now has three Futurity victories
to his credit, besides Requital's those
of His Highness and The Butterflies
In preceding years, and In each Instance
he labored many a day and night be
fore he could deliver his charges to the
post.
In .Requital this year Hyland knew
that he had an Inferior colt to J I as tings,
for whom Mr. Belmont paid $37,000 at
the eiideon & Daly dissolution sale, but
as the son of Retribution was a. good,
hardy colt, and a glutton for work, Hy
land look him to Saratoga and gave
him plenty of racing. The consequence
that he came down here as hard as
nails and fit to run for a man's life.
Hastings Took a Cold.
Hastings was taken with a cold,
which came near developing Into, lung
fever, and had to be stopped for a long
spell. His race on Saturday showed
that he lacked condition, but for the
distance he lasted he gave every indi
cation that he Is coming on, and that
he will yet repay Mr. Belmont for his
pluck and enterprise by earning brack
ets before the Sheepshead Bay meeting
is over.
'Handspring did not run up to his
private form. An excuse Is made for
him that his stable companion, Axiom,
kicked him on the leg at the post, but
the injury was slight. The fact seems
to be that .Handspring was indulged In
.too much.
With a high priced colt like Hand
spring, for whom Mr. Dwyer refused
$50,000 from Mr. Baldwin, the temptation
always is to go along carefully with
him. A more moderate animal will be
"banged away with" until he becomes
hard, thoroughly seasoned, and capable
of holding his own In any kind of com
pany. Most trainers when they have a
real crack are afraid of overdoing him
with work. Handspring last Saturday
ran undoubtedly soft. The race, how
ever, will do him a lot of good, and the
next time he starts he will redeem him
self, Wants to Go Against Requital,
- Eugene Leigh, who has the crack
western cult, Ben .Brush, who Is unfor
tunately without engagements, is anxi
ous to match his colt against Requital
for any amount a side from $500 up.
Mr. Gideon as a rule Is opposed to
matches, but It Is td be hoped that In
this instance .the management of the
Coney Island Jockey club will succeed
In Inducing him to agree. Handspring,
Hastings and Crescendo would also no
d.Mibt be glad to come In. A race like
this would eclipse thd Futurity, and If
set down for about ken days off, all
would be thoroughly lit and the contest
would be the event ol' the year.
VALKYRIE 111 AND DEFENDER.
Getting th Ysohts In, Shape for th Big
International Has.
NewTork.. Aug. 26. Valkyrie III Is
afloat again, after her rest on the
blocks In the dry-dock In. the Brie
Basin. At 7.80 o'cilock this morning the
water was let Into the dock and at 10
o'clock she- floated in about twenty
feet six Inches of water.' - The tide rose
slowly for aiqurter of an hour, and
then the yaobt was warped out of the
dock, and at 10.80 she was tied up to
the dock outside ready -for. her trip
down tkte bay to th Horseshoe at 'San
dy HjSbki As soon as she tot outside th
KOOXpectators could get a good view
of her, and those who had seen htr In J
the water with her cruising rig on were
as much surprised at her appearance
as they had been when she came out
of the water.
Valkyrie III, with her spars all In
place, does not resemble Defender In
tho least, although there Is a slight
likeness to Vigilant. Her beam is
about the same in proportion, but her
bilge la much more powerful-looking.
The general effect Is that of a boat
with more beam at the load-water line
than on deck, and a decided rake aft
on dock. Her bow la well, out of the
water, there being much more free
board where tho bow touches the water
than at the stern. It even looks as If
she would pound her overhanging stern
In a sea-way. There Is plenty of evi
dence of stability, and with her eighty
tons of lead In her keel she should
stnnd up well In a stiff breeze.
The Valkyrie, escorted by a fleet of
newspaper tugs, went down to Sandy
Hook this afternoon for the purpoxo
of taking her llrst spin In American
waters under racing canvas, but disap
pointed a great muny people by an
choring In the .Horseshoe and remain
ing there. Among the disappointed
ones was George J. Gould. ,
Dcfondor Hound for Now York.
BrltUol, R. I., Aug. 26. The riggers
began work very early this morning on
Defender. All the stays were put on
and temporarily made fast, and the
topmast was sent up, so that the top
was at the mast-head, where It ro
mulned until 11 o'clock, when the steel
gaff was loaded on a scow and towed
out to the sloop by tho tug Wallace B.
Flint. The steel gaff was fastened to
the mast, and the old gaff was fnst
the mast, and the old gaff was
brought ashore. The topmust was
then raised Into position. At 12.4.1 p.
;r. Defender left here for New York
In f(y.of the tug Walluce B.. Flint.

Two Rattling flood ViVhts Witnessed by

Maspeth. L. I., Aug. 26. The new
Empire Athletlo club, of Maspethv to
night was formally opened. The club,
has a seating accommodation for up
ward of 3,000 persons. There were 2,000
present when the opening bout between
Frank Erne, of Buffalo, and Jack Skel
ly. of Brooklyn, was announced. The
referee was Tim Hurst, and Frank
Freeman held the watch. 'Much Inter
est centered In this bout, as It was
thought a fair line could be got on
Erne's chances with Dixon, .the feather
weight champion. The lads were down
to eighteen rounds at 126 pounds. When
the seventh round was reached both
men were weak, but fought gamely.
Skelly sank to the ropes and rolled over
on his side. He was unable to get up
and was counted out. The round lasted
two minutes and forty seconds. Skelly
had to be carried to hl corner.
The star bout of the evening was be
tween Kid Lavlgne, of Saginaw. Mich.,
nnd Jimmy Handler, of Newark. The
latter was knocked out. The bout was
twenty rounds at 133 pounds.

Great Sport Billed for tho Driving Park
Today.
Owing to the lateness of the hour

threo postponed events. This they
have succeeded In doing. In addition
to the postponed races the free-for-all
will be run again with the same en
tries, and best of all there will be a
running race In which horses from
Scrantun, Wilkes-Barre and Shamokin
will start.
