CHICAGO. H., Sept. 10.-Although it
was an OF day at Washington park,
there was fair crowd in attendance.
The feature of the day was Galen's
easy victory for the valuable Flash
stakes. He picked up 122 pounds and
fairly ran away with it. The colt con-
ceded every one of his competitors
Jumps of weight, and yet had the field
at his mercy before running quarter
of a mile. All things considered, his
performance was by all odds the best
on record. It was not much of betting
race, for Galen was strong favOrite.
At the third attempt the field moved
away well together. Hindoo Craft went to
the front and led Galen by neck at the
first furlOng, with Laura Stone third
and Baldwin's pair bringing up the
rear. StOval was riding HindOo Craft
for all that was in him, and the pace
was terrific. Galen, however, was equal
to the occasion, and without apparent
effort drew away as though HindOo
Craft was tied up. After the first fur
long the contest was uninteresting, and
Galen won as he pleased, finishing III
canter in 1:01%. Laura Stone came
strong at the finish, under the wire,
passing HindOo Craft, and was at
Galen'S flank under the wire.
In the fourth event OYerton
did some mastery riding on Birth
day. He got away to very bad start
and trailed half dozen lengths i'll rear
of the field clear around and into the

riding bringing his horse right through
the bunch and running q dead heat
with Bonnie King. Three-quarters OF
the spectators thought that Bonnie
King had won. and the hackers were
much chagrined at the Judges decision.

was able to be about to-day. and VIII
probably be able to again resume his
mounts in few days.
