Six shooters turned up at the Greenville range yesterday the heavy rains and high winds interfered with good work and the scores were necessarily low. However, the weather conditions seemed to suit George W.

Plaisted, the old time champion, for he ran up the splendid score of 633 points, defeating those other two Zettler cracks, Mike Dorrler and Louis Hansen, both of whom, for the first time In many years, went below the 600 mark. Plalsted's first string netted him 213 points; then he scored 107 and for a wind up tallied 223. He also scored two flags. Dorrler finished in second place with strings of 191, 209 and 199, a total of 599. Hansen scored 570 on strings of 196, 187 and 187, while V.

Ber gerson scored 558 on strings of 190, 178 and 184. George D. Wlegman scored 168, 18S and 183, a total of 539, and P. E. Chase brought up the rear with three strings of 168 each, something that rarely occurs.

Dorrler and Hansen then faced each other in a 50 shot match, and the former came up to something like his old form. Hansen was clearly off in his shooting, as he lost the black eleven times. Dorrler also missed the black three times, but he won out easily by the score of 1,034 to 970. At the Traps. Dean Lefever made the best average at the shoot of the Albany Gun Club.

He shot at ISO targets and broke 166. an average of 92 per cent. Leroy S. Woodward won two trophies and a. gun recently at the shoot of the Bay State Gun Club at Shrewsbury, Mass.

He made a clean score for each prize. The storm interfered with the monthly live bird shoot of the Unknown Gun Club at Dexter Park yesterday afternoon. Only two members put in an appearanco, not enough to make up the necessary quorum. The nineteenth annual tournament of the Cleveland Gun Club will take place in that city on Labor Day, September 4. The programme will be Issued later.

Over one hundred merchandise prizes have already been secured. The date of the match between F. Moffett and Garret Hopper has been set down for August 24, at the grounds of the Lyndhurst Shooting Association. The conditions are one hundred live birds, J100 a side, Moffett to stand at 32 yards and Hopper at 29. Rhode Island shooting matters are looking up.

The state boasts such capital shooting clubs at) the Providence. Woon socket. Pawtuxet and Bur rillvllle. It is now under consideration to hold a series of team shoots, teams to consist of live men, for a handsome trophy to be purchased by the clubs interested in the Dlan. Harold Money of the Brooklyn Gun Club was very heavily handicapped at tjie recent shoot at Ocean City, Md.

Placing the youth at the 32 yard mark, two yards further back than the veteran Fanning, would argue that the handicap per considered him the equal of Captain Brewer or D.r. Carver in their palmy days. Thirty two yards, even in these days of long rises, is a tremendous thing for it handicaps the gun and not tho man. Alvln Daniels, who was recently defeated by James A. R.

Elliott for the Du Pont live bird trophy, took part In a bird tournament at Denver and broke 576 out of 600 shot at. an avei age of 96 per cent. He made one run of 98 straight. At the annual meeting of the Falrhill, Rod and Gun Club, John T. Haight was elected president; Charles W.

Anderson, vice president; George S. Stiles, recording secretary; Michael M. Grady, financial secretary, and Henry McClintock, treasurer. MCCOY'S EASY GAME. Whips Two Amateurs and Challenges Tommy Ryan.

Davenport, August 11 Kid McCoy met Tom Dugan of Australia and Jack Graham of Pittsburg before a thousand people at Saen gerfest Hall last night. Dugan quit in the second round and Graham in the fourth. Both were badly overmatched and the affair was farcical. Tommy Ryan was present and was challenged by McCoy by name but would not respond, though called for by the audience. Scraps From the Ring.

Many of the best amateur boxers of this city and vicinity are entering for the Athletic Club tournament at the Lenox Athletic Club's arena on Thursday, August 31. and Saturday, September 2.

Robertson, 29 Park row, and Joe Macius, Lenox Athletic Club, One Hundred and Seventh street and Lexington avp nue, Manhattan.

Billy Brady, who Is interested In fnnw Island Sporting Club, sent a cablegram to Alex Brown, the manager and matchmaker of the club by the sea, yesterday. In which he said that Hobby Dobhs, who is now in England, woui sail i'ct this country next week and that would be willing to meet anyone at 335 pounds. Brown immediately communicated with Mattv ard asked him if he would agree to flan to gainst the colored man, and he said he wculd be oly too willing to fight him and the maton is as fcocil as made. Matty Matthews will make n's third appearance in the ring of the Coney Island Club next Monday night, when he will have a.s an opponent (Jtvrgc Kerwln, the Chicago mystery. Matthews is the best of condition and since he defeated KoO'e Connolly he has received numerous offers from matchmakers throughout the country, but has decided not to fight outside his own territory for the present.

In the other bout Jerome Quigl of Philadelphia and Joe Youngs of Buffalo are ba the principals, Both bouts are scheduled for twenty five rounds and a the card ii an exceedingly good one It is safe to that ther wjll be a large crowd in attendance. George Dixon and Eddie Santry of Chicago will fight twenty five rounds at the Broadway Athletic Club to night in addition to a twenty round battle for local featherweight championship honors between Tommy Sullivan of Brooklyn and Jimmy Divvers of Xew York. Dixon and Santry are particularly well matched. They fought a draw at the Lenox Club about a year ago and recently In Chicago they fought a six round bout. In which Santry showed a great improvement in fistic skill.

He more than held his own with the colored phenomenon and demonstrated that in a fight of longer duration ho would have a grand chance to win. Tom Sharkey will second Dixon. Sharkey arrived at the Grand Central Denot at 1:30 this afternoon. Johnny Burns, the ex chi mpion amateur 125 pound lad of America, will tUe the plaoe of Tim Callahan, who was taken ill while for his go with Eddie Lenny of Chester, Pa a.t the Pelican A. C.

Lenny considered a wonder by the Chester and Philadelphia sports. Burns has defeated Frank 3radly, who fought a draw with Lenny, and the 2x Fays he will surely win.

In the preliminaries Bobby Rfilly of Brooklyn meets George Hines of the Xew Side A. C. for ten rounds at M2 pounds and Jlarry Appel of the East Side faces Frank Ca. of the New West A. C.

for the same number of rounds at 137 pounds. What promises to be a good card has been arranged to take place at the Xational Athletic Club on Monday evening. Tho star bout is twenty rounds at 135 pounds between Billy Ernst of Brooklyn and Hughey McWlnters (colored) of Xew York, preceded by a good fifteen round bout between two evfinly matched and aspiring colored lightweights, Ed Derrall of Xew York and Billy Moore of St. Louis, both of whom have recently appeared before local clubs and made good Impressions. Ernst Is training at Roekaway Beach and will step into the ring as fit as three weeks' active training can make a man and confidently expects to win, while McWinters is training at Fordham and down to weight already.

There was a row between La Chanoe and Tebeau in Baltimore yesterday, which culminated in the arrest of the leader of the Perfectos. Tebeau blocked McGraw at first and in the dispute that followed La Chanoe took up the cause of the captain and invited Patsey to fight it out under the stand after the game.

FAVORITES WIN AT THE SPA. Talent Carries Off Most of the Honey. Pine Three Cornered Race the Feature. (Special to the Eagle.) Saratoga. August 11 Four favorites won yesterday afternoon and as a consequence the talent won heavily and the pencillers lost accordingly.

Although it rained for two hours in the morning, the downfall had no apparent effect on the track, as the fast time made in several of the races shows. The Lemp Handicap was tbe feature of the card, but the three cornered contest at a mile and a quarter between Tragedian, The Bachelor and Adoiph Spreckela was by far the most interesting contest of the day. Tragedian, on the strength of having Maker in the saddle, was the favorite, but both of tiie others carried a large amount of money. A heavy piungo on Adoiph Spreckels, just as the horses were on the way to the post, forced his price down from 3 to 1 to 11 to 5. Tragedian, closely followed by The Bachelor, was the pace maker with Spreckels bringing up the rear.

There was no changa In this order till the far turn was reached, where The Bachelor drew away, Tragedian indulging in one of his customary sulking fits. When they rounded into the stretch, Maher coaxed Tragedian to extend himself and he was soon on even terms with The Bachelor. Clawson, on the latter, went to the whip and with Maher riding hard with his hands, they came toward the finish like a team. A sixteenth from home and Spreckels, who had been outpaced up to this point, came with a great rusn and was catching the leaders at every stride. He Just failed to get up.

The Bachelor gained the verdict by a short head from Tragedian with Spreckels a like distance in the rear. Many thought that Tragedian had won and there was a storm of hisses mingled with the cheers and applause which greeted the raising of the numbers. It was one of the greatest finishes ever seen at this track and the time, 2:07, only a fraction more than the record held by Badge, shows wtiat a good race it was from a time standpoint. Ex Corporation Counsel Clark came very near bringing off a great coup with The Scotchman in the Lemp stakes. Maribert, with 126 pounds, was the more seasoned horse and The Scotchman, after leading up to the last furlong, was forced to yield to the Fleischman colt, who won rather handily, with Matchim third.

Oread won the opening dash easily from Tar Hill, who beat Post Haste for the place. Alpen found his light impost of ninety four pounds to his liking and he smothered his field in the mile event before six furlongs had been traversed. Beana was second and Myth third. A tremendous plunge was made on Ben Ha dad in the fifth race but third was the best he could do. Rideau, who got off with a flying start, just managed to stagger home a head in front of Dolly Wiethoff, who more skillfully ridden would have won.

Joe Hill was suspended for two days for breaking through the harrier and general disobedience while at the post in the first race. The jumps in the steeplechase course have not been lowered. The brush is of the regulation height but the top bars have been removed. The stewards measured the steeplechase Jumps and found them to be below the proper height. Instructions have been given to have them increased to the original height.

Tho Anglo American jockey, Tod Sloane, arrived here yesterday afternoon. He is endeavoring to prevail upon W. C. Whitney to engage him to ride the latter's horses In England next year. There le no truth in the story that Frank Taylor was acting as agent lor William A.

LORD VINCENT'S STAKE. Doble's Bay Defeats The Queen and Surpol at Fort Erie. Buffalo, August 11 The four day card of the Buffalo Driving Club was completed at the Fort Erie track yesterday afternoon, although with the brisk half hour shower and the match affairs, the Grand Circuit performers were kept busy until close to 8 o'clock. The Queen City trotting stake was a hotly contested affair At the start it looked like a battle confined to Surpol, the horse, and the Village Farm's The Queen, which took the measure of Royal Baron, tho M. and M.

It Is Believed Her Time Allowance Was Sufficient to Defeat Columbia Yesterday. LATTER'S LEAD VERY SLIGHT The Bun to Vineyard Haven "Was Made in a Dripping Tog and Choppy Sea. Vineyard Haven, August 11 The old yacht champion. Defender, practically won a race against the Columbia yesterday, if time allowance was given, in the worst sort ot weather for a yacht club cruise. But the victory, it must be admitted, was more than well Club and their guests never saw before and may not see again for years such a sailing event.

The margin between the famous sloops "was fourteen seconds over a minute in the thirty Beven mile run from Bron ton's Reo? off Newport, to the West Chop buoy in Vineyard Sound, with a change in course at Cnnn A lltrif chin covontonn fl Tt ft one quarter miles from the start. Taking out of consideration the magnificent of the great fleet of craft sailing Tinder heavy canvas only, some of the smaller ones "With reefs taken in their mainsails, the raco between the Columbia and Defender was fairly soul stirring. After both got away over the starting line it was nip and tuck with eased sheets for almost an hour, Defender Just a hairbreadth, comparatively speaking, In the lead, with the Columbia abeam. Even alter the Columbia made a gam so that the Defender could cross under her stern the Columbia did not walk away, as the heavy breeze hove the latter down and made her lose distance on repeated luffs. The fleet got away from Xewport witn mis erable weather prospects and rain fell through the entire day.

The southerly fifteen knot wind brought in a wringing wet mist Irom seaward. The run out to the lightship was successfully made and all the boats got by the flagship Corsair between 10:45 and 11 o'clock. They finished off West Chop shortly after 3 o'clock. The two big sloops were held back, the Defender crossing the line at 11:20:10 and the Columbia at 11:20:40. The Columbia at once bore down Gn the Defend er a weataer quarter, cut couia not get oy ner, and for fifteen miles the boats sailed side by side.

Just before reaching Vineyard lightship, seventeen and one quarter miles from the start, the Columbia managed to pass the Near the lightship both boats set No. 1 jib topsails and three strong pull's knocked both boats well down, Columbia being forced to luff each time. From the lightship to the finish, nearly twenty miles, tne boats ran somewhat more oil the wind, and the Columbia drew away from the Defender, flushing .1 minute and 4 seconds ahead of her. To days race and the performance or the Columbia was satisfactory on the score of heavy "weather. Out of the dark and lowering sky, a fresh southerly breeze, with a much of iasting in it, was blowing when the flagship Corsair anchored about 200 yards to windward of Bren i nn 'e Roif 1 i rii ill i it In n'r lfiM.

tiH oonr up the signal, "The fleet will proceed to Vine yard Haven." That meant a pretty close reach on the starboard tack of ll1 miles to Vineyard Sound lightship and a broad reach up the Vineyard Sound to the finish off Westchop lighthouse, a total of 37 miles. There was considerable weight in the breeze a llimn nn th sn iv hull Hip start iiif signal for the sloops was given. some oi tne small onus, tne bisiae, aura and others, had tacked in a couple of reel's and some of the larger oies wished, they had before the day was over. Vigilant, Syce, Gloriana and Navahoe crossed the line at the Start in a bunch, while the smoke from the first gun blew away. Lotawanna, Queen Mab, Sflvftnara.

Katnna and Sisrnp Aoushla. "HilriA jgarde. Petrel, Hussar and Mira followed in the order named, ail but the last crossing the line within the limit. 'No more exciting start than that of the schooners has ever been seen off the lightship. The fact that ten schooners had crossed the line in one minute and fifteen seconds after the starting signal was given, and all close to the windward end of it.

speaks volumes for the skill of American helmsmen. First away, with everything drawing well and a "bone in her teeth," was W. Gould ni i ii i i i i stern. in en tne oui America came aiong swinging both gaff topsails over her four ui oaiia, auu uu uci ice laii a. tiau.

Round alongside one another then came the Alcaca, Iroquois, Katrina. Colonia. Qulsetta, and Priscilla II. Hildegradc, Mayflower, Ariel, Gevalia. Glendover and marguerite, crossing in tne oraer namea.

Only the larger ones carried baby jib topsails. Columbia and Defender made another of their good starts. At forty five seconds hp.fnrA rhoir si trim I hnf li wcrp hfn rl I i ml 1 a few lengths off the flagship's starboard side, Columbia being farthest to the south west. At thirty seconds Defender bore away, heading for the middle nf the line. She crossed it at 11:20:10, just ten seconds after gun fire, but Columbia crossed twenty seconds later, and luffing sharp around the Corsair's stern, had the weather berth, even though astern.

Neither of them carried jib topsails and they did not need them in that breeze. Tt wnc nriH tn tft tH ffi rr nnrs nnrl canvas, for before rhe leaders reached the Vineyard Sound Lightship there was quite a little sea on. Tt was squally, raining hard, and thick enough to shut the land from sight. Thoce who expected to sen Columbia walk right away from Defpnder because there was a strong breeze were I3oam and beam, and so close that if Columbia's mast had carried away at the deck it would have fallen across Defender's deck, these two wonderfully well matched yachts sailed for an hour and seventeen minutes without either gaining any material advantage. Then as it "hpe an tr brpf7P nn hrirrlpr Pnlumhia's mast slowly but surely cut ahoart.

Hy 12:30 she! showed out clear enough for Defender to attempt to luff out across hnr stern. Guests of the owners of the yachts that started said last night that they had. seen a real race. They may live many a year and not again see such an exhibition of pail carry ing. Not a topsail was flowed down, nor a helm eaeed until leo roils wre under, and in some eases until cockpits wore half lilleil.

and no schooner "cracked on' harder than the old America. During a squall her forepeak halyards carried away. The was lowered, halyards rove and the foresail hoisted aain In seven minutes. The America held her own. Last night the fleet rode at anchor In the Haven, with turbulent water underm ath and plenty of wind whistling through the rigging overhead.

To day most of the beats will all over to New Bedford, but Columbia and Defender will probably pans by Buzzard's Bay end continue to Newport. Yachting Notes. A.

NELSON'S 100 KILOMETER RIDE. Chicago Amateur Takes the Race in Becord Time Elkes and Linton. Montreal, August 11 The cycle racing here drew out another great throng yesterday to see a negro rider, Major Taylor, win the world's championship at a mile, to see what was really a wonderful paced ride by Amateur Nelson of Chicago and some other racing. The title of world's champion as bestowed here has already been said to be a misnomer, but results to date make it ridiculous. So far there have been four professional races run off and Yankees have won all of the twelve prizes except one, the third place in the mile that fell to McLeod of Canada yesterday.

Major Taylor is undoubtedly the best of the lot, but even he is not so speedy as last year, for he has to ride out to beat McCarthy or Tom or Nat Butler. What kind of champions are the foreigners who cannot get a place against such third raters as Church of Philadelphia, Bowler of Chicago, etc. When it is remembered that these professionals, who were never factors in any raceB but handicaps when pitted against Cooper, Stevens, Kimble, et al, are winning prizes at the world's championship meet, it will be seen how empty are the honors and how farcical the meeting. The race of the day yesterday was undoubtedly the amateur paced 100 kilometers (62 miles 672 feet), which was won by Nelson of Chicago in 2 hours 4 minutes 13 1 5 seconds, or only a few minutes behind the professional time. Nelson was paced by a motor tandem and beat his nearest competitor, Goodson of Australia, by more than five miles.

In an hour Nelson rode 31 miles 460 yards against the amateur competition record of 30 miles 820 yards, made by Dupuy of France. In two hours he rode 61 miles 450 yards, against 57 miles 305 yards, the best amateur record made by Frost of England. The summary: lt" kilometres (fiz miles reetj, amateur cnam pionshlp of the world Won by John A. Nelson, Chicago. Time.

With clear weather to morrow what should be the greatest bicycle race of the season will be run at the Manhattan Beach bicycle track, when Harry Elkes, the middle distance champion of America, and Tom Linton, the champion 01 Europe, will contest in a one hour paced race for the championship of the world and a purse of 51,200. The con test should settle beyond dispute the question of supremacy at trailing motor cycles between ttfese two. Although Elkes is a slight favorite, owing to his having scored a victory over Linton last week, there are not a few who favor the Welshman in what is certain to be a killing contest. Each man will have three motor machines to assist him and there can therefore be no excuse offered In regard to insufficient pace. This will be one of the first con tests where each man will be given all the pace that it is possible for him to follow.

Should Elkes defeat the Welshman he will lay plans for a trip to Europe, knowing full well that Buch a victory would insure him a big reputation on the other side, where Linton is acknowledged to be' without an equal. In addition to the big paced contest there are some open amateur events of more than ordinary Interest. In the Wahrenberger handicap, W. F. Wahrenberger, who recently broke the one mile unpaced record, will start from scratch, while Torrance, the 100 mile winner, and Collett will be among his opponents.

The big advance sale of tickets speaks well for a crowd, and arrangements have been completed with the Long Island Railroad by which extra trains will be run in addition to their regular twenty minute service from East Thirty fourth street and foot of Whitehall street. New York, and Flatbush avenue, Brooklyn. The short distance events will start about 3 P. while the big match will be called about an hour later. Wheeling Paragraphs.

Baltimore vs. Pittsburg at Baltimore. Phiiadelphia vs. Chicago at Philadelphia. Washington vs.

St. Louis at Washington. The gloom that pervaded Washington Park on Wednesday was partly dispelled yesterday, although the place presented a bedraggled as pect, owing to the rain. The storm was the primary cause of the improved aspect on the affairs of the Brooklyns, as it prevented tho final game with Cincinnati and gave to the local pitchers a chance to rest and strengthen for the series with Louisville which begins to day. Manager Hanlon talked in a more confident strain yesterday and actually promised a win ning streak from now on where he had looked for defeat the day before.

As an indication that he had not been inactive, five telegrams were put on the wires last night, which have already found their way into the hands of as many managers who have pllcher3 to sell. "It isn't a question of money," said Hanlon. "We stand ready to buy any pitcher from Nichols, Willis, Rueie or Powell down and will pay the price." Another proof that the Brooklyns do not fear the Bostons as much as was supposed is mat two games win oe played with Louis vine to morrow, one being the contest postponed at Louisville on the last Western trio. This is an indication that despite the close ness of the race, the Brooklyns are not afraid to play and take chances of defeat. It is probable that a shake up in the batting order will be made to day.

Casey will be moved up to the top, while Jones is to be dropped down a few pegs. Jennings may also bo substituted at first for Anderson, tho lat ter fielding being below the mark. His failure to catch a foul fly on Wednesday, it win De rememDerea. gave to i'eltz tho opportunity to start a batting streak which won the game for Cincinnati. As to the pitchers, Hanlon believes that yesterday's rest will have a teadency to bring some of them around.

Dunn will doubtlessly occupy the box to day, and Kennedy will take his turn regularly hereafter, Roaring Bill, in Hanlon's estimation, having recovered is speed and effectiveness. Donovan and Yeager will be retained, but Maul is slated for probable release. Some Pointers for Hanlon. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: "Will you kindly allow me a small space In your valuable paper to reply, to Mr. Hanlon, manager of the Brooklyn Base Ball Club? I have noticed of late that Mr.

Hanlon complains of the poor support given to the players by the home patrons, which I admit Is true and very discouraging to the players. But Mr. Hanlon must not lose sight of the fact that Brooklyn is very close to Manhattan and the fieople coming from over there are not too friendly to the Brooklyn Club. I noticed last Wednesday that there were quite a few seated in the grand stand, almost behind the Brooklyn players' bench, who were rooting hard for the success the Cincinnati Club. Now that the race Is drawing very close and Mr.

Hanlon no doubt is getting alarmed, I think it might be well to offer a few points. In the first place, I can't understand why Mr. Hanlon has persisted in pitching McJames, a man, in my opinion, entirely unfit for such company. As I have seen him this season, he has only been in the way. Kennedy has been kept sitting on the bench for over a month, for what reason? Ir.

Hanlon also continues to experiment with Anderson on first base, a man that never make a first class ball player, for the simple reason that he has no head. Why not get a man at once for the position? I noticed lately that the Pittsburg Club released Its first baseman, Clark, a man who towers much over Mr. Anderson as a ball player. Why not, Mr. Hanlon, secure him or someone that can play the position? I witnessed the game last "Wednesday and saw Anderson lose the game by not knowing how to catch a little fly ball that almost anyone could catch.

That was not the only game I saw lost by the same man this soason. Why not give Jennlnirs a trial at first base, a nian that has the get there within him? There la also some room for improvement on third base. Casey is a good man, but not fast enough for the company. I trust, therefore, before It Is too late, that Mr. Hanlon will endeavor to strengthen some of the weak spots on the team.

A ROOTER FOR THE BROOKLYN' CLUB ALWAYS. Brooklyn, August 11, 1S99. A Crank Explains. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: Your remarks In Tuesdays ami Thursdays Issues as to the demonstrations of the crowd against the Brooklyns are true, hut the course that you assign that the people of Brooklyn evidently do not wish the Superbas to become champions is not correct. As one of the crowd knowing the feelings and opinions of the crowd pretty well I may be able to explain their attitude.

It Is because tho crowd is so anxious for the Superbas to win and because as now constituted the cannot win that the crowd are so disappointed of their hopes and consequently vent their disappointment in their Jeerg. They see that they, the Superbas, are on the toboggan, and that they must inevitably If things go on as now end in about fourth place. One place (third base) has been weak the whole Beason. Another (first base) has been made weak since the season began. These places should have been made strong In order to win.

It would have been money In the bank for the management to have paid a high price any price to make these places strong, for success depended on It. With two good batters in the thirty class in these places the record would have been different now. You quote the Bostons. The management might have taken a lesson from the Bostons in regard to their pitchers. The Bostons save Nichols and Lowis and never allow them to plach so often as to impair their condition consequently, they are now more fit than at the beginning of the season.

How is It with Dunn and Hughes and Kenr.eily? They are pitched out. Their arms are all gone from overwork. There is just so much pitching strength in an arm. When that Is strair.i and loses its power and yoi: have a it would have paid better to have lost an oi game with Yeager or Maul than to have forced the good pitch. rs to overdo themselves and become worthless when tlir nre nc rled nt the end of the season.

It was a good tiling to get Farroll and MeGuire. but It was a hrs.l thing to lose McFarlnr.d and at ast until somebody better could have be secure There Is only one better first basi man thnn MGnun. The "crowd" looks upon th. se mistakes In mismanagement as unnecessary nnd. as th, foresee the end.

they are not In good humor ali iiu It. and that Is the secret of their conduct. The management, if accounts are correct. Is making money. It can only continue to make money If it repairs some of the mistakes It has made with some of the money it has gained.
