SARATOGA. July 27.--The defeat OF Major
Domo In the Troy Stakes was the sensational
feature OF to-day's racing. The card originally
announced eleven probable starters. and to
these Stonenell, who only arrived from Mon
mouth last night. was added. With Major
Domo and the Warnke candidate in, seven Of
the twelve decided to withdraw. and only i've

favorite for tho place. There was prac-
tically no betting in the straight
books. except with the plungers. who
could afford to put up enough money to
make 1t an objectto back Domo. The Warnkes
had some faith In their horse. but not enough
to make them lack him to any extent. The
race was a cracking one for speed. Tom Il. Of
Tom Stevens's string took Major Domo In
hand from the start and practically settled
him. He led from the start to the turn, and

him three furlongs to get UP to Tom B.. that
distance being covered in .35A. On the turn
Sloan moved up with Stonenell. and it was pal
