GLENS FALLS On. Y.), Aug. ITO
days events on the thirdAday of the
Grand Circuit meet here have furnished
the most exciting races and closest fin
ishes of the meet. Perfect weather
still prevails, and the track is in splen-
did condition and remarkably fast, as is
shown by the result of the second heat
in the free for all trot, when Bingen,
driven by litter, went the quarter in
0:31%, the half in LOB, the three-quar-
ters in 1:35 and the mile in 2:0614, bet
tering his own record by half second,
and going the fastest mile trotted this
season on any track. Bingen's fast
mile was all the more surprising as he
started on the sixth place. The Abb
bott was but a short half-length be-
hind.
Just prior to the start of the 2:1O
pace, announcement was made that the
favorite, Hal B., would not start on
account of lameness, and all bets were
declared off. The first heat of this
event gave the spectators beautiful
finish, Ace going under the wire first,
with Flirt and Ambulator in the order
named. In the last heat Ambulator
threw a shoe and broke his hobbies
soon after getting the word, and was
obliged to leave the track.
The final heat of the free for all trot
was won by The Abbott in 2:OS;{4, Bin
gen, winner of the second heat, break
ing in the first quarter and finishing
sixth. Considerable money was lost
on this race. At the opening The Alb
bott sold for $50, field $50. After the
second heat Bingen sold for $12S, field
$400.
