SERIES OF sIIsHAPs.
Remarkable Chapter of Accidents
in IL Saratoga Race.

SARATOGA, N. Y, Aug. 22.-This
was the last day but one of the meet
ing, and the programme showed that
many horses had migrated to other
tracks. The weather was cool, the
track fast, but the attendance slim.
The last race, the BeVerWyck steeple-
chase stakes, was the most remarkable
ever run. All went well until the
second turn, where Lafayette fell with
Freyling. At the water jump st.
Luke fell and Woodford tripped over
him. Chandler, who was riding Wood
ford, was up like a flash, grabbed
his horse and swung into the saddle
again. All this time Lienhart was in
front and was never headed, winning
easily. Woodford was second, thirty
lengths away. Freyling, remounting
Lafayette, caught Beverwyck, who was
far behind the leaders. The pair
raced at the jump near the far turn
and both fell, Freyling being dragged
some distance. Beverwyck was caught,
and Cahill, mounting him again, Sc
cured third money. The three-year-old
black colt Hidalgo, the property OF
J. W. Rogers, was accidentally struck
in the eye by whip and the eye put
out. Summaries:

WIND TOO HIGH FOR RECORDS.
The Beaten Horse Said Not to
Have Been in the Best Com
ditiOn.

CHICAGO, Aug. 22.-Joe Patchen
today won the great race against
John R. Gentry in straight heats.
The race took place on the famous
Washington park track, but as a
wind that amounted to almost
gale blew all afternoon a sensational
time-performance was out of the
question. The three heats were COW
cred in 2:05A, 2:07A and 2:07A.
Nevertheless the contest is regarded
as one of the most important that
has taken place on the trotting or
pacing turf. Patchen's victory was
decisive and seems to put his claim
to first place among harness racers
beyond dispute. Twelve thousand
that betting was prohibited did not
deter the crowd from showing de-
gree of enthusiasm that is seldom
eXcelled at a horse race. Gentry
was undoubtedly a slight favorite in
the public'S well wishes, but Patchen
was cheered just the same. In what
little betting there was outside of
the track Gentry also ruled IA
vorite at about 10 to 8. At the end
of the second heat old-time horsemen
were pronouncing it the greatest
race in history. These two miles
Gentry was a close contestant, and
so, considering what was at stake,
the contest was regarded as unpre-
cedented. But the third heat went
to the big black SO easily that vet
Grams were disposed to qualify their
opinion as to the pre-eminence of the
race.
