Aug. 12.-Experts agree that the Hew Saratoga track is one of the fastest in the country. What it win be when it has been settled by a winter's frost is hard to say. Another track record only one day old went by the board to-day. Runnels ran a mile in l:*»l-5 on Monday, and to- day the good filly Boxaaw clipped two-fifths of a second off that time, defeating Baron Pepper. The Amazon and Daffo-Down-Dilly.

Mr. Wilson ar.d n each offered (25.000 for him at private sale, and r Ived refusals. Fred- erick tSebhard did not attend the sale, because, h^ Mid. he thought Mexican would bring a much higher price W. L.

Fitzgerald, the starter, who was taken ill with typhoid while officiating at the Saratoga races, said last night that bis patient was getting along as well as cou'd be expected under the cir- cumstances. II» hopes to have him up again In thre« or four weeks, because the fact that Mr. Fitzgerald had the disease two years ago ought to prevent the present attack from being severe. The starter reached his Brooklyn home, at No. 4" McDonough-st., yesterday morning. He was brought down from Saratoga in William C. Whit- ney's private car. The car was taken from Mott Haven to Long Island City on a ferryboat, and then run to Manhattan Crossing in East New- York. which is less than a mile from the Fitz- gerald home. Mrs. Fitzgerald, his mother, who has been 111 with typhoid fever for four weeks, suffered a slight relapse on hearing of her son's Illness, and will not be able to be out next week as was expected.

Mr. Madden paid ?ft<">o for Frankfort, the counterfeit brother to the great Hamburg, mak- ing the only bid. Frankfort brought $10,000 when sold to Lord Clonmell for Mr. Mackay at the Marcus Daly sale. If anybody wants an example of the un- certainty of horse racing here is a brilliant one ready to hand.

The victory of I Knew, In the last race, profited the educated players largely, as nine out of ten of them backed tiic n'.'..\ freely. The work of Mr. PettirsUl as starter, while on the whole satisfactory, was not so good as on Monday. He ciid not force the boys to come to the Carrier and stand there, and f»s a result several of them beat the flag. The illness of Mr. Fitz- gwrald Is widely deplored, and the many expres- •ions of rep: . heard at the track emphasizes m-hat has long been generally acknowledged, that Mr. Fitzgerald is the bct-t starter metropolitan racegoers have c\-er se*n. and that his honesty and Jalrnees have always been beyond reproach. Turf- men and racegoers sincerely hope that the favor- «hie predictions of his physicians will be realized and that he will soon be seen at the barrier again. Senator P.

Admirers of the trotter and pacer were present in goodly numbers. The best race of the day was in the Metropoli- tan, where a 16,600 purse was offered for 2:20 class pacers. Direct Hal. the property of E. F. Geers, was made a top heavy favorite, and be. did not five his backers much chance to worry after once getting into his stride. When Geera began to drive him Direct Hal closed on the others and came home alone In the first heat. His win was so easy that the* son of Direct was held at almost prohibitive odds by the bookmakers in the other beats, which he won as easily as be did the first. Direct Hal captured the Orel heat in "J: 1^ 1 ; and the second and third heats in r:O7. It was said in the pad4ock that or.c of the drivers of one of the animals had been offered $-"'.'»> If ha beat out a certain hor?e in the race.

"Nick" Hublngei Is said '-\u25a0 have taken the field against Direct Hal at the average odds of 70 to 100, Direct Hal being the favorite. After twice finishing second in this race Green- line was distanced in the third heat, which put him out of the money. There has been considerable rough driving on the trotting circuit lately, and some of the best known driver* have combined to put 4 stop to »*• B. Walker, who drove Elderone in this race, was said to have offended so con- spicuously In this respect that the judges disquali- fied Klderoue after the first beat. Direct Hal »d ail of the- way in tha last two heats and won each practically pulled to a Jog. Tiverton was always the favorite in the nr.-U rat*:, for 2:Zi trotters. Most of the betting was done at 500 for Tlverten to a like amount for the Meld, although the field in some of the pools sold it $>0 to too for Tiverton. Tlvt-rton had his opponent* In trouble in the open- Ing beat and won easily in 2:12 U.

"With Ideal weather, a delightful breeze blowing over the track, the spectators at the trotting meeting at Brighton Beach yesterday had little to complain about. The favorites won right off the reel, and the day's sport was over in goodly time to enable those who wished to do so to get back to this borough in time for an early dinner. 'While not a day of sensational racing, the various heats DR. PIM AND WILLIAM A. LARNED MOTH UP INTO THE SEMI-FINALS. Southampton. N. Y. Aug. 13 (Special).— progress was* made in the opening rounds of the lawn tennis tournament to-day for the Long Isl- and championship on the courts of the Meadow Club. The play did not begin until nearly noon, and by nightfall many of the lesser experts had been weeded out. and Dr. Joshua Pina. the former champion and idcl of the English courts, and the national tltte holder of the United States, William A. Lamed, had captured their places on the. semi- final brackets. The courts of the Meadow Club ar»» in perfect condition and please the Englishmen. R. F. Doherty, the former title holder of all Eng- land, and his younger brother. H. L. Doherty. the present champion, were each called on to play on* match, which they won with ease. R. F. Doherty beating the Columbia University champion, Lylo E. Mahan, and H. L. Doherty gaining the victory over the Southern Gulf States" title holder, Reuben G. Hunt. Malcolm D. Whitman was expected to, compete in the singles, and is on the field. He would have met A. L. Doherty, but at the last moment defaulted, saying that se would leave the meeting until the national tournament at New- port next week. This is sure to test the strength of William A. Larn*d, as he is now certain to occupy the place in the semi-final round with BBS three Britons placed op the remaining brackets. As the Long Island meet is looked upon by the txperts as a preliminary to Newport, there was a large gallery of society folk in attendance through- out the day. They were keen for every point, as many of them are playing the game this season, and some of the most expert of the women have paired with the men players of national reputa- tion for the mixed doubles. Honors for the day are divided between the match In which R. F. Doherty defeated Lyle E. Mahaa and that in which the American base line exponent. Richard Stevens, forced Dr. Joshua Pirn to play the best tennis he knew before the Englishman finally won. Stevens had previously engaged Harry Allen, the Pennsylvanian, in a hard fought con- test which had greatly lattgaed him. In conse- quence hi 3 strong showing against Dr. P:t. was all the more remarkable. K. F. Boherty really outclassed Mahan. and ye; the point ore of their match reveals the fact that the winner was cot tar ahead of the losing player, llahan made the mistake of trying to out- play the Briton from the back of the court. In this way he gave Doherty many excellent oppor- tunities to ass his passing strokes and ground strokes with telling effect. On his overhead strokes, especially in the few times that he came into the net for a cross court shot or a kill, Malun was at his best and superior to the Briton. Five times in the first set and four times in the second ilahaii forced 'he points to deuce. He -worked strenuously, but the cool steadiness of Doherty was his pa*=- word to victory, and he was always able to take tho required gan-.^a when bard pressed by shooting the ball swiftly down cither o! the side lines of Mahan's court for a f.a?=. All through the match the style and methods of las two men presented a striking contrast, the Englishman playing coolly and easily, whi'e Mahan overworked himself ani perspired freely because of hl3 vigorous racquet wielding.

He placed the ball with more care and accuracy, and by forcing the Englishman into diSleult positions finally won the first act after deuce had been called on the point* three times Dr. Pirn came back strongly and took the following three games by making short returns, which compelled Stevens to run in. and then passing him on the next return. There was no lobbing by either player, and th» rallies were frequently prolonged to great length. In one of the rallies the ball crossed the net twenty-two times before the point fell to Stevens on a net by Dr. Pirn. The staying quality of tha Englishman, together with the great accuracy of his backhand strokes, finally won the MX sad match. The point acore fellows: FIRST SET. ~_ . .. __ Points. Games. I>r.

Near the end of the set Lamed settled down to his work, ar.d by a series cf place shots earned the seat at I—l.I 1. He improved greatly in the second sec. playing throughout on the at- tack.

Richard Stevens, forced Dr. Joshua Pirn to playthe best tennis he knew before the Englishmanfinally won. Stevens had previously engaged HarryAllen, the Pennsylvanian, in a hard fought con-test which had greatly lattgaed him. In conse-quence hi3strong showing against Dr. P:t. was allthe more remarkable.

K. F. Boherty really outclassed Mahan. and ye;the point ore of their match reveals the factthat the winner was cot tar ahead of the losingplayer, llahan made the mistake of trying to out-play the Briton from the back of the court. Inthis way he gave Doherty many excellent oppor-tunities to ass his passing strokes and ground

strokes with telling effect. On his overhead strokes,especially in the few times that he came into thenet for a cross court shot or a kill, Malun wasat his best and superior to the Briton. Five timesin the first set and four times inthe second ilahaiiforced 'he points to deuce. He -worked strenuously,but the cool steadiness of Doherty was his pa*=-

word to victory, and he was always able to taketho required gan-.^a when bard pressed by shootingthe ball swiftly down cither o! the side lines ofMahan's court for a f.a?=. All through the matchthe style and methods of las two men presented

a striking contrast, the Englishman playing coollyand easily, whi'e Mahan overworked himself aniperspired freely because of hl3 vigorous racquetwielding.
