GREAT TIME AT HARTFORD.
HARTFORD CONN. July 5.-The
largest crowd that ever assembled at
Charrer-Oak Park, and the largest at
tendance ever known at any light-har-
ness racing event i'm New England was
present to-day at the reopening OF this
famous track Estimates place the at
tendance at from 25.00O to 10000. Promi-
nent horsemen from all sections of the
country were in attendance. 1t was gene
rally conceded by horsemen that record
breaking time was impossible, owing TO
the manner in which the spectators
crowded on the track.
The chief feature on the card was the
free-of-ali pace, in which Star Pointer,
John r. Gentry, and Frank Agan con-
tested. 1t was hoped that the two-min-
ute mark would be threatened, but Cen
try was killed i'm his effort TO lower the
high-sulky mile record. and it was plain
ly evident that instead of being pushed,
McCleary held back Star Pointer i'm both
heats as Gentry could not force him.
and Frank Agan was several lengths
in the rear.
In Gentry's trial against the high-suky
record he was accompanied by a runner
from the Tewksbery stables, driven by
Noble.
