A Runaway on the Track Results In the
Driver Being Badly Hurt.

Driver Being Badly Hurt
NEW YORK. September THE days
doing 81 Fleetwood began with an
exciting episode when the first heat Of
the 2:22 class race was trotted. Just
as the field of horses passed
the point of rocks, closely punched,
Cocoon and King Darlington somehow
came into collision and Martin, who
drove the stallion, was thrown violent
| lY TO the ground. The horse ran away,
pursued by mounted policeman, who
finally succeeded In capturing him just
after passing the wire. Martin was
badly cut and otherwise injured. When
Darlington started to run, Quarter
| Stretch was set running by his driver In
order to escape being run down oy the
runaway stallion, and came the last
quarter OF q mile in gallop. The
| Judges raised storm Of jeers when
they announced mo heat" as the result
instead Of placing the horses as required
! by the rules of the turf. There was
such a vigorous and unanimous remon-
strance that finally the officials revers-
ed their ruling and gave the heat TO
| Quarter Stretch. Cocoon finally won
the race after q series OF exciting fin
lshes with Carlton and King Darlington.

OPENING DAY AT GRAvEsEND.
New YORK, Septemb Der Tn spite OF
the meagre card which was still further
reduced by scratching, the attendance
on the opening day at Gravesend was
excellent. Two fixtures were down to
| be run off, and In the first which was
! for two-year-olds, eight were sent TO
the post. Silvie and Manchester
| made all the running AID when
| Silvie had the race won, Littlefeld,
who had the mount, allowed Lamley TO
get up on Salvation and beat him by half
length. Stonenell was prohibitive
favorite in the first race and won as he
pleased, although it seemed as II
Lttlefeld was not anxious TO win
with Correction. First, Stonenell
won; 1:l51l. Second, Csndelabra won;
1:4s%. Third, Salvation won; los.
