It appears that Mckinney did not get
a mark of :15, as sent out by the Asso-
ciated Press. The sporting editor tele-
graphed the Examiner last night in
reference to the matter and received the
following reply: 81
"The starters in the 2 20 trot at Stock
ton on Saturday were Lizzie F., Lin
nette, Coral, Mckinney, Flora M, Rich
wood and Maud G. Flora M. won the
first heat in 2:21A, Mckinney won the
next three in 2:2O14, 2:171S and 2:19."
Mckinney now has a mark of 2:171S.
and is undoubtedly one of the coming
stars of the trotting world. He will
probably get iour-year-old mark of
2:15. In order for the uninitiated to
understand McKinney's performance, it
will only be necessary to state that 2 ZIG
was the fastest four-year-old record un-
til Sunol made her wonderful record
Mckinney is one of the best gated
trotters ever hitched to a sulky, and is
a remarkably level headed horse.

/. J. Rose reports fhe sale OF st. Carlo
to w. OBJ. McDonough for $4,000. This
is the only horse by the celebrated sire
st. Blaize ever brought to this country,
and it is matter of congratulation that
he is to remain in California.
Mr. Rose is getting ready for his big
sale in New York, on October 10Th. 1t
is expected that the Australian brood
mares will bring high figures. There
should be rush to secure this blood.
Mr.. Rose thinks whole lot of Kebir,
the sensational Alcazar 2-year-old, who
trotted mile in 2 :22A in the race with
Arion when he broke the worlds race
record for 2-year-olds. The chances are
that Kebir will be sent against the
Scythe-bearer in the near future. The
three sensational 2-year-olds of the year
are Arion, Monbars and Kebir.

The cutting down of Fairy by Del Mar
at the head OF the homestretch at Sacra-
nlento. while it was purely accidental,
was a severe blow to Senator Rose. The
mare had won several good races at the
east in very poor condition; and on her
return to the land of cool nights she re-
sumed her old form and came out Fit to
run against anybodv's mare at a mile
and quarter or less. The accident dis
ables her for the rest of the campaign,
and must have cost the senator many
dollar, for he never failed to back her
whenever she started, no matter how
the odds lay. He put her and Motto on
a car for Los Angeles and went home
direct from the state fair. Whether he
will send her on to be sold with his Oc-
tober consignment or send her on with
the yearlings and 2-year-olds that will
be sold next March remains to be
seen. The senator has lost many races
this season that he could have won had
he not been deprived of the services of
Garrison, who was the only rider that
could handle his big colt, Nomad. But
we will venture this assertion, that
neither of those defeats hurt him as
badly as the accident to his pretty filly.
The ,pleasant-faced old mans counten-
ance, as he clasped his hands behind
him and followed his beautiful cripple
to her stall was indeed a sad picture.

Fairy and Motto are still at Sacra-
mento. The San Francisco paper is also
mistaken on another point. Fairy was
cnt down at the start and not at the
head of the home stretch.

The sporting editor is in receipt of a
catalogue of the stock of Hancock John
ston which is to be sold at public auc-
tion at the Ella Hills stables, East Los
Angeles, on October 5th. Among the

bred sons of A. w. Richmond, including
LARGO. Several thoroughbreds are cata-
logued.

horse was not as good horse as he was
at Sacramento, however, otherwise the
heats would have been little faster.

Pescador, a two-year-old raised by
Charley Thomas at Santa Anita, won a
mile race in the fast time of AZ during
the fair. This speedy little son of Gano
is entered in the Los Angeles races.
