An interesting question came up dtirlna the play of a hand at straight whist at th Brooklyn Whist Club on Monday night. George Kling and Weston were playing together.

Both use the so-called "Cavendish" discard, which calls specifically for a discarS from tho best protected suit on opponents original load of trumps. The system in a more general way demands a discard from strength as a protective measure whenevef thc preponderance of trump strength is clearly shown to be with opponents and of weakness only when tho plnyer and his part ner have taken the aggressive or when part ner has shown trump strength. inc bands were as follows, the club 5 be-ing turned by West and South having tha opening lead: D.

GIANTS SHUT OUT THE COLTS. Mathewson Pitched Great Ball and Allowed the Chicago Team Only One Hit. In the first game of the series with the Chicago Colts OA the Polo Grounds yesterday the Giants shut out the Windy City team to the tune of 5 to 0. Christy Mathewson was at his best and he allowed the visitors but one bit. This was a single made by Johnny Kling In the fourth inning.

Kling advanced Chance to third base on the hit and this was as near as the Chicago players came to scoring. The New York players Bcorod four of the five runs In the third inning. A muff of an easy fly let Mathewson reach first. Bresna-han singled and moved up on Brown's bunt. Devlin cleared the bases with a three-bagger and a couple of outs at ilrst brought In the fourth run.

An error by Chance, a sacrifice and a single in another run in the seventh. The score: New York. Chicago. Name. r.lb.p.o.t Name.

The Superbas needed no make-up for their burlesque on the game of ball they played yesterday. Those with a sense of humor were convulsed over the antics of Hanlon'a patched up aggregation and even the fans with a serious turn of mind, thoae who pull for the team and worry over their performances, were compelled to take cogni zance of the amusing features. Otto Jordan was responsible for much of the trouble and Manager Hanlon's tardy arrival helped. Jordan sent word around at the eleventh hour that he was 111 and Acting Manager Billy Reldy was at his wits' end to supply a substitute at second base. He finally selected Harry Gessler.

The utility outfielder is a Southpaw, but no one noticed the fact until Gessler had his first fielding chance. Then it was discovered that Harry had to search around the entire ball field to local firat base. Th result waa that everybody had heart failure until the runner wan finally caught, whereupon Hanlon, who had arrived by this time, sent Gessler to center field and placed Dobbs at second. Lobbs started off like the real thing until a hard play came up. That was in tne seventh, when Burke bunted toward third base.

Jacklltsch caused an explosion by try ing to run across the entire diamond to field the ball, leaving firat base to take care oi Itself. Jacklltsch seemed a bit displeased that McCormlck should make the play and then remembering his duties hustled back toward his own territory. Here again he found himself forestalled. Dobbs waa there to receive the throw. He got the ball some where between the chest and the toes, missed it, but caught the 180 odd pounds of Burke Instead.

The result was some nigh and lofty tumbling on the part of Mr. Dobbs that would have done credit to a circus performer. There were one or two other similar in cidents, but the climax was furnished by Doescher, who did a ligntning cnange act in the box. In fact, the southpaw made a world' record for speed in the matter of retirement Into oblivion. He succeeded Garvin In the box in tha ninth, pitched exactly aeven balls, one of which waa a strike, and then gave way to Oscar Jonea.

The game served to prove the assertions that "Kid" Nichols, for ten years pitcher of the Bostons, two years a member of the Kansas City Club and now back In the league a a manager and twlrler. Is as good as be ever waa. For aeven Innings he held the Superbas down without a hit and aeemed deatined to make another record when Harry Lumley Jarred hi ambitlona with a three bagger to left. Two more blngle followed later, but th three hit performance was glory enough for th veteran. Garvin kept pace with Nichols for four Innings, whereupon the balloon went up.

At that time. Brooklyn led by 1 to 0, the result of two bases on balls, a sacrifice and an error by Farrell In the first Inning. A couple of singles, an error by Garvin and on of Babb' customary plneh bungles gave th Cardinals two In the filth and two Innings later the visitors added another pair on a trio of blta and another error. After twenty-eight Brooklyn batter bad faced Nichols without making a Lumley broke the Ice In the eighth with two out. by lacing the tall to deep left for three bases.

A fumble by Farrell, his third of the game, a pas to Jacklltsch and Oes aler'a single followed quickly, two runs re. ulllng. Jacklltsch was declared out at third on Babb'a grounder to Hurke, a close decision but nevertheless correct, despite a bit of light kicking. When Jones undid Doescher' bad work In the ninth by striking out Nichols and Shay a fine performance, the Superhaa gav temporary Indications of a winning rally. Af ter a vicious drive by McCormlck to the right field fence had bean splendidly caught py unannon.

Bergen was safe on Beckley'a error and Jones made a srratch hit. This Drought up tne Idols, Hhecksrd snd Lumler but they were not doing the hero art at a time so cine to th dinner hour. Bherkard lilted an easy fly to Drain and l.umiev atruck out In hollow alyle, reaching up for a ball several tret over bis besd on ths intra attempt. Th score wis 4 lo I. close enoiiah for another hard lurk atory, were It not lor th nramieaa neiaing.

SAY PUBLIC IS GETTINGTOO WISE Of More Than 100 Who Went on the First Day at Gravesend Not 60 Remain. The quiet warning given to certain prominent plungers by the stewards of the Jockey Club on Thursday to the effect that their betting operations would have to be curtailed In the future had its effect at Gravesend yesterday.

Comparatively speaking, there was "nothing dot'' Not since the racing Beason began has the ring handled so little money. With the possible exception of an SS.000 bet made by E. E. Smathers on Will-lam Lakeland's Gold Ten no big wagers were recorded, according to the best information obtainable at the conclusion of the day's Bport. i There are other reasons, too, why the layers are not handling the volume of money that they were earlier in the season.

The fact is that the enormous losses sustained by the members of the layers fraternity re cently have caused the' vast majority of them to be more careful. A thousand dollar bet at the present stage of the game Is the signal for the cutting of odds all along the line, and commissioners are frequently forced to report to their employers that they are unable to get down an entire commission. Never in the history of racing has a sea son been so disastrous lor the layers. It Is stated on the bcBt of authority that there are not more than a dozen pencilera who can balance up even on the season and not more than three or four who are winners. The phenomenal success of heavily backed public choices, which means losses tor tne dooks, has caused a panic among the layers, many of whom have been forced to quit.

More than 100 books "drew in" on the first day of the present Brooklyn Jockey Club meeting. Yeaterdav there were less than 60 stands oc cupied. As four heavily backed favorites were defeated the ring breathed easier after the close of the day racing. It was authoritively stated at the track veaterrinv that there were but three of the more prominent layers who were ahead of the game. They are George Wheelock, Joe Yeager and Frank Lanterman.

tsoi. ucn-tensteln. who for years has been one of the biggust bookmakers In the ring, is said to be just about even up on the season. On the other hand there are 'several wno nave either gone broke or their bankroll has been depleted to such an extent that they have decided to wait until a break comes. One of the most prominent layers In the ring in duscusstng the matter to-day said: "The vast majority of the people who attend the races regularly these days are too wise.

They know Just as much about horses, and In many Instances more than the men who own them. Rounding up a book Is a lost art and in three races out of five the layers are gambling Just the same as those on the ground. Racing is occupying so much attention and space in the dally newspapers that there Is absolutely no reason why men who attend them and bet should not know all about the form of the horses entered. The daily work of horses. Information that Is supposed to be known to trainers and owners alone, Is watched closely and printed in the newspapers, and the result Is that the publlo comes to the track thoroughly acquainted with Just what each horse can da.

I'll venture to say that in seven races out of ten where there are a dozen starters named to go, the-' bettors will pick out five or six that figure and bet on them. Of the six there will be three in the money. "I know that there has been no end of comment among the layers concerning the present system of handicapping and they feel that there should be a change. It is too big a task to ask one man to do all the handicapping that is necessary on the Eastern tracks, and I don't believe there Is any one man who can do It successfully and fairly. He may try his best to be fair and he may be as honest as the day Is long, but the task is too great and partiality Is bound to creep In.

A board of handlcappers, to consist of at least three experts, should bo appointed. Take the time to look this matter up and you will find that top-weight first or second choice have won the vast majority of handicaps this year and victories of the light weights In these rsres hsve been very few. There art many bookmakers who try to make books legitimately and do not gamble, but under the present conditions such a thing Is Impossible, for the reason that In not on rare In ten can they get all of th larlers The driest of Africander In I he handicap at a mile and a quarter. the feature of the sport yesterday. The defeat was decisive and the big son of Btsr Ruhy-Afrlc Queen hsd no excuses after It.

Under the conditions In which the race was run, Africander simply met a better and fresher opponent In Audience. Africander's showing was a sad disappointment to his young owner, Charlie Dwyer, who was extremely eonrl-dent before the rare that he would win. The rsr I1I not win any friends for the M( colt In next Thursday'! big event at gheepshead On v.

NO BETTING DERBY DAY. Mayor Harrison of Chicago to Enforce Edict Against Washington Park Meeting. Chicago, 111., June 11 Mayor Harrison announced last night that no bookmaklng would be allowed at Washington Park on Derby day, and that no betting would be allowed during the Washington Park meeting.

"The application for a license for Wash ington Park reached me this afternoon," said the Mayor last night, "and it will be granted, as no objections have been filed with me against the racing. There will be no bookmaklng or gambling at the track, however. For several months we have been conducting a crusade against bookmaklng In this city, and no exception will be made In favor of the Washington Park race track. Orders to this effect have been Issued, and they will be rigidly enforced on Derby day, and on all other days when there Is racing at the track." When informed of the Mayor's announcement Secretary Howard of the Washington Park Club said: "The Derby will be run as announced and the usual season of racing will be held. Further than this we have nothing to say." The bookmakers were greatly dismayed by the Mayor's declaration and declared that It was beyond his power to prevent betting, although they did not question that the police would be able to do away with open bookmaklng.

If the worst came, one of the leading bookmakers In the city declared, recourse could be had to the. English system of betting, which is done much more quietly than the American method. This, he declared, would narrow down the betting greatly, but would be preferable to no betting at all. IN THE TENNIS WORLD.
