at the Track. ‘

NEWARK, N. J., Sept. 3.-“Major”
Taylor, “the colored whirlwind," fully de-
monstrated to the seven thousand people
in attendance at the races held at the
Vailsburg track to~day his superiority as
a sprinter.
Taylors win places him in the lead in
the championship race, with atotal of
twenty points, while Frank Kramer is
second, with fourteen point-s. Freeman
and Kiser have eight each, Kimble four,
Fisher three, Bowler, Walthour and
Newhouse two points each.
It was a record breaking attendance, all
the grandstand and bleacher seats being
filled, a large numb°r occupying the in~
tleld and also the outside of the track in
turns.
George Collett followed up his victory of
yesterday by winning the five-mile handi- l
cap. Each heat of the quarter-mile champ
ionship was amatch race, only two and
three men starting in each heat. Kimble
and Collett met in the first heat and “Old
Kaintuck” proved too much for the New
Haven rider.
TAYLOR AN mst WINNER.
Will Coburn won the second, while.
"Maier" Taylor easily beat out Floyd
Krebs in the third: Kramer, Fisher and
Butler were the winners in the succeed-
ing heats. l
Taylor won the third from Butler very
easily, Butler not seeming to make any. _

pistol crack in the final, Taylor went to
the front, but was quickly passed by
Kramer. Fisher then went by, and Taylor

into the stretch they came side by side,
and the “Black Whirlwind” proved too
much for his speedy competitors. Kramer

A ST- JOHNS. September l.--The Evening
Herald says: The recent alarming increase
in the price of North Sydney coal, which
now rules at $6.25 a ton, forms a subject
of serious economic import for our
people. The causes which have led to this
advance are many,and of such a character
as to make it unlikely that any return to
the old time rates of $4.80 a ton can ever
be brought about. The chief reason for
the advance is the establishment of the
steel works at Sydney, which will con-
sume 1,000,0(l) tons of coal per annum. '
Preparations for the continuous, efficient-
conduct of this ente!'prlS¢ h88l'l0ocs`eitated_
a curtailment of the export, and as the
demand I8 Strong the price has gong up in

For the next eight weeks none ofour ves.

as the coal company have many steamers

and the transient shipping demand the
price must be maintained at the present

These things impart an upward tenden-
cy to the price of coal on this side of the
