CINCINNATI, O., July 29.-After
watching his gallant filly Taluca win the
Ohio stakes in the hardest kind of
drive, DR.. E. F. Mclean, one of the best
known horsemen on the American turf
was attacked with heart disease and
died short time afterward at the Oak
ley race track this afternoon Mr. Nc
Lean was sitting at the time in the
timers stand, when he dropped over
gasping for breath. Medical aid was
summoned but despite the efforts of the
physicians the turfman died just as the
gong sounded calling the horses to the
post for the last race. Mr.. McLean's
death was undoubtedly caused by the
exciting finish in the stake race and the
senSa tional incidents which followed.
After Taluca crossed the wire a winner
by a nose and the jockeys were dis
mounting, John Huffman, the St. Louis
horseman, took advantage of the selling
clause in the condition of the race and
began to bid up Taluca. Tom Black
burn, McLean's trainer, stood by and
protected his f1lly, and after being bid
up to $1,000, she was bought in by Black
burn at that figure. Blackburn at once
put in a claim for Remember Me, Huff
mans horse, which finished second to
Taluca, and after paying 5000, the amount
he was entered for, both were sold to the
Mclean stable. During the run-up Mr..
Mclean sat silently watching the trans
action After it was over Mr.. McLean's
friend first noticed that he was i'll, and
a short time afterward he received the
fatal attack. Mr. McLean's death
caused the last race to be declared off.
For fifteen years or more Mclean has
raced horses and the public always had
the greatest confidence in his stable.
Mr.. Mclean was 55 years of age and
leaves widow and family. The Oakley
management has declared off the Oakley
races for tomorrow and Saturday on ac-
count of the death of Mr.. Mclean.
