1895. Not only this but it is the fastest
mile ever trotted by gelding.
A strong wind blew up the stretch dur

6 o'clock that Mcdowell appeared on the
track with Azote to go for the mile. He
was accompanied by a runner, and after two
attempts to get the word the horses were
sent away. To the quarter they went in
0:29A, and around to the half they came in
1:01k. To the three-quarters, with the
runner close to him, Azote passed the pole

tiers and 2:15H for the whole, at the race
meeting at Belmont course, which was
brought to close this afternoon. The
meeting was success financially.
The Joe Parliamentary fasco yesterday
was the general topic of the crowd to-day
The secret of the whole transaction cropped
out, Curry, the driver of Joe Patchen, stat
ing that an agreement had been entered
two horses that the horse winning the first
heat, (which was to be paced on its
merits" was to win the race in three heats.
This plan was carried out by the drivers.
but the judges nipped the scheme in the
bud.
The judges officially announced their
decision in the case at the close of the
meeting. Curry was fined $500, and, to-
gether with Joe Patchen, suspended until
the fine was paid
