SARATOGA, Aug. 1.-THE Saratoga race
track was In much better condition to-day
than yesterday. and the management decided
20 run the Rensington hurdle race. Or. Eich-
berg. was. Of course. an odds-on ~fayorlte, with
Ben Eder and Mr.. Storel, both from the stable
OF J. W. Colt, quoted at ~ 10 10. The books
took liberties with Mr. Stofel and they laid
as good ~ 2 to 1 that he would not finish sec
ond. But Ben Eder fell, and the bookmakers
who went out Of line lost quite a sum Of money.
Ben Eder went right TO the front and led DR..
Eichberg for a mile and three-Quarters. Then
he hit a hurdle, leaving DIR. Eichberg TO win,
pulled up 10 a walk, by a sixteenth Of a mile.
Mr.. Stoffel. who had been trailing all the way.
finished In second place. while Ben Eder. who
had been remounted by Finnegan. went tho
course and took third money. Callahan. who
rode Mr.. Stoffel. was called 10 the stand by
the stewards, who asked him why he lay 80
far out OF the race. He said the horse had
no speed. and this ended the matter.
Fourteen maiden two-year-olds responded TO
the busle call In the first race and, as usual in
such races. there were many good things. Bran
dy Smash closed a slight favorite over Annu
and The Jade, with Cogswell backed from 10 too
