eryrrAI,o. N. Y, August 1.-Nothing
very sensational characterized getaway
day at the Buffalo track, and the Grand
Circuit meeting was brought 70 close
long before daylight disappeared.
FIRST came the unfinished IA trot. Sally
s,nr,ons had secured two heats and Judge
Fisher one on Friday. The Judge took
tho fourth one, and then Ed. Geers re-
nlaced Shank behind Sally. BY a MASTER
" effort in the straight the silent Man
from Tennessee" forced Sally under the
wire first. This gave her the race.
The talent suffered two dumps before
the 226 pace was concluded. Anheuser
was the original favorite, but he got dis
tanced In the second heat. The camp foi-
lowers then hedged on Daisy Despair,
hut she was unable to beat Lucille. jog
pa,chen was worth only so in an auc-
ton pool that estimated John X. Gentry
at SIS. Moonstone at $40, and Field at $40.
Joe made a great race OF IL. John IL.
Gentry went after him in the first two
heats and was unable to head the strong
ooing Joe. Mocrstone tried TO do the
trick in the third heat, but she, too, fell
by the wayside.
Thi, concluded the two-weeks meeting
at Buffalo, which has been very success
f,,l financially and more than ordinarily
70 from a racing standpoint.
