There was a. pretty struggle for third
place between Williams on Mr.. Clay and
Sloan on Dr. Eichberg, and the former got
II by a head. The remainder of the bunch
was so close together at the end that IT
was impossible TO separate the horses At
the conclusion of the great race the
starter appeared and said that there was
nothing the matter with the horses and
the boys caused all the delay at the start
for which he fined most Of them $500 a
piece and had suspended Sloan, Clawson,

GARDENERS VICTORY.

Fuller information concerning the
battle between Oscar Gardner and Hop
kins, is to the effect that it was a stub
born contest in which the Omaha
Kid was given the decision because
he out-pointed his opponent In the
sixth round Gardner was knocked
Gown by a swinging right handler on
the jaw. Then he woke up, and hand
ed cut some good ones to the colored
boy. In the fourteenth round he fought
Hopkins against the ropes and finally
fioored him. Hopkins took the full
ten seconds, and the gong sounded as
he regained his feet. The anticipated
effort to stop the battle, did not ma
terialize. Oscars next battle will be
in Kansas City on the 29th The
statement that he has been matched
against Solly Smith is a mistake.

The torrid heat yesterday afternoon
kept the crowd at the running races
down to very small proportions. The
track was fast, and the time fairly
good. There were no long shot sur
prises, the winners being favorites in
each race. The finishes were all tame,
and each race was won handily
Rossman was to favorite in the
first race, and won 1t in d gallop. The
start was good Rossman shot to the
front, and was never in danger, going
along easily while Flynn was applying
the whip to Monroe Doctrine. Crown
went under the wire strong third.
& Frank r. HART was first choice at
even money in the second race, and

layed by bad acting and jockeying at

The Great Race.

NEW YORK, August 2S-Fifteen thou
sand people saw Martimas at the long odds
to vain Rv aa Fur gE p 5tkss
coming in second, while the pubic choices
were nowhere. The day was excessively
hot. The delay at the post was the long
est on record in the country even beating
Pettingilfs Chicago derby, when an hour
and thirty minutes was consumed. The
horses, the starters said to-day, We're well
behaved and so he proceeded to adminis-
ter fines al lirnitum and set down for
week four of the jockeys, including Sloan.
AT the opening of the betting Autumn
was fav9rite over the Eleisehman sta
ples, DR.. Eichberg and Sir Hubert was
really the favorite, although his price was
'a little higher, but then 1t was one horse
against two The MADDEN string, Glen
helm, Rhinelander and Scannell were next
in favoritism and down in the ring where
1t was like a furnace the men tumbled
over each other in their eagerness TO
put their money on their choice,
1t was 5:S7 when the twentieth and last
break came, exactly one hour and thirty
two minutes after they reached the post,
and for SO many youngsters is was really
2 good start. They were practically in
line, the only one really out of it being
Duke of Middleburg, who was to all in

In a few strides the Ally had her nose
in front of Rusber. Inch by inch at first,
then foot by foot the shortest furlong
had been covered with High Degree half
length in front of Rusher. 1t was any
. body's race then. The chute was mar
rowing now and all were seeking good
place in which to round the bend into the
main track. Maher wanted the hard-go-
ing at the. rail, but Rusher chung to High
Degree like leech and would not be
shaken off. Two furlongs had been COW
cred and High Degree was still half
length In front Of Rusher, who was then
only neck in front OF the favorite, Au-
tumn, who was nose in front of Sir
HUBERT. Prestidigitatrice was falling out
OF II ana Armament was getting promi-
nent. Now came a hustle for the turn
was at hand. All the boys were working
like demons to get the front. Rusher
stopped as if he had been snot and then
how Maher did ride. Crouching low on
the tilly's neck he drove her with hands
and heels, and when there was but quar-
ter of mile to go he was a good length
and half in front, but he did not dare
to swing over against the rail now as he
was far out on the track Lewis, how
