CAPTURED BY DOMINO.
Keene's Great Colt Leads the
Field in the Big Futurity
Stakes.
A Purse Worth $4,000 Hauled
Down by the Winner by a
Nose.

SHEEPSHEAD BAY, Aug. 3O-DOmino
has proved himself to be the worthy
son of noble sire by winning the great
Fcturity stakes from field of nineteen
competitors. He carried the top
weight, too, and was delayed at the
post nearly half an hour. Besides this
the track was heavy and sticky. In
short it was just the day for light
weight, but he vanquished all, though
one of them, Galilee, gave him hard
fight for over furlong and was only a
head behind at the finish. It was the
sixth of the Futurity series of races and
the best of any of them. The gross
value of the stake was $65, 215 and was
divided as follows: Forty-nine thou
sand seven hundred and fifteen dollars
to Domino and $4,000 to his breeder,
e5, $685. 81 to Galilee and $500 to his
breeder, 81, 666. 81 to Dobbins and 81, 900
to his breeder. Owing to the bad
weather not more than 5000 people
witnessed the great race. The field was
the largest that ever started in Flu
turity race.
Domino Was the Public Favorite,
and though nearly every horse in the
race was well backed, he carried the
bulk of the public money, and as much
as z to was laid against his chances.
After delay of nearly half an hour at
the post, Rowe caught them all in mo-
ton like cavalry line, and down went
the flag and they were off. Taral took
Domino to the front at once and led at
the first clump of tree, hotly pressed by
Galilee, who was running like ghost.
The others were Gathering at their
heels ike a drove of wild horses. At
the bend of the track at the head of the
home stretch Galilee took the lead and
Dobblns had his head on line with
Domin o's saddle girth. It looked des-
perate for the favorite for moment,
but the greatest jockey in America
was on his back, and he began
riding him with all his power and skill.
Heel and whip were used to such adj
vantage that in another moment Dom
inc began wearing his leader down, re-
gaining his lost ground. The instant
he poked his nose in front of Galilee a
great shout went up. It was horse
race, and everybody realized it. In the
last furlong Griffin used every endeavor
to keep Galilee in the van, but it was a
Lilliputian against giant. and Taral
outrode both him and McDermott and
drove the gallant Domino home under
such hail of punishment that he won
by a nose on the very post. Griffin by
one last effort landed Galilee head be-
fore Dobbins. Taral was presented
5000 by the Messrs. Keene.

the eyes Of the West are most directed
upon the capital. and when the pulse of

SUBSTITUTE REPORTED.
Senate Finance Committee Fa-
vors the VOORHEES, Bill to the
House Measure.
Former to Be Pushed Through
as Rapidly as Possible-Gor-
don's Speech.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-The senate
committee on finance decided to report
back to the senate the Wilson repeal
bill, with the recommendation that the
VOORHEES, bill already on the senate
calendar, be substituted for it. The
committee also resolved to set aside the
national bank circulation bill which is
now unfinished business In the senate,
in favor of the Voorhees, bill and to
press the latter measure as rapidly as
the temper Of the senate will permit.
The difference between the house bill
and the voorhees, bill is found in the
attachment to the latter of a paragraph
declaring that it is the policy Of the
United States to use both gold and sill
YER as money metals, and to preserve
parity.
Chairman Voorhees, reported the
Voorhees, bill to the senate as substi-
tute for the house bill at 1915 p. m.
Mr.. Teller objected to immediate coh-
sideration of the repeal bill and it went
over.
The Stewart resolution, inquiring
into the condition of the treasury, was
then taken up for consideration. The
resolution was referred to the finance
committee and Mr.. Gordon addressed
the senate in advocacy of the uncon-
ditional repeal of the Sherman act. He
declared that he could not vote for any
measure that involved delay and that
he was therefore opposed to the substi-
tute reported.
Mr.. Teller addressed the senate in an
argument to prove that the Sherman
law is not responsible for the financial
troubles of the country. Almost with
out exception, he said, every one who
had addressed the senate had spoken as
if there were some great calamity i'm
pending over the people of the United
States. These representations. he
said, emanated from New York bank
ers. Without concluding his remarks
Mr.. Teller yielded for motion to pro-
coed to executive business, and after
wards the senate adjourned.
