FIVE Jockeys escaped unhurt. When the
accident occurred the horses were punched,
with the exception of Iceni, the extreme
outsider, who was nearly a quarter of a
mile behind. When the others went down.
they left Iceni master of the situation and
he finished alone. Jockeys Worthington and
Dupee, who escaped injury remounted Dag
mar and Helen Paxton and finished a
length apart for second money.
The feature event of the day was the

was won by Shooting Star. Scratches

only five horses facing the flag Shooting
Star was played heavily and won in easy
FASHION from Esherin, added starter.

They VIII Contest Under Straight
Rules-Bezenah Given Decision
Over Crosby Last Night.

Clarence Forbes, brother of Harry
Forbes, bantam-weight champion, who is
TO meet Billy Rotchford in a ten-round
contest at the Empire Theater next Fri
day evening. arrived in the city yesterday
and will complete his training here. Forbes
is now nearly down to weight-11s pounds
and says he will only do light work the
next few days. He has been training in
Chicago for several days and says he is
in much better condition than when he
met Jack Ryan in this city on May IS.
81 am glad that Rotchford and are to
fight under straight rules" said Forbes last
night. You see, fighters of our class very
seldom fight under the clean break rules,
and we are at a great disadvantage when
we enter the ring and have to break clean.

Forbes walked around town last night
and visited the Kingston saloon to see the
odds posted on the big fight between JEFF
fries and FitZsimmons, returns of which
will be received at the Empire Friday night.
The odds posted to date are % TO 70 that
FitZsimmons will win, but there have been
no takers. Forbes noticed the odds and
remarked that man was foolish TO offer
too big odds on JefTries as Fitzsimmons
had chance to land of his stiff
punches that might win him the cham
pionship again. Forbes believes Jeffries
will win, but says the odds should not be
too long on him.
ROtchford and his manager and trainers
will arrive in the city tomorrow or Thurs
day. Many requests have been received
at the theater for seats. Several delega-
! tions will come from gas-belt cities. The
reserved seats will be placed on sale to-

A love feast was held on third base in the
last OF the eighth inning of the game be-
tween Indianapolis and Toledo yesterday
afternoon. The Hoosiers had been in
cataleptic state during the early innings Of
the contest and the aggregation that Is
sojourning on the bottom rung Of the ladder
had taken nice, snug lead. The Hoosiers
awakened in the seventh and came within
one OF tying the score Then in the eighth
Fox beat out a bunt, stole second, reached
third on a wild throw and waited for in

tying tally. Coulter failed. but Heydon

their desire to give him an affectionate
squeeze. Miller flew TO Burns, but Hog

circuit in the ninth the game resulted to
in favor OF Indianapolis.

EXCITING FINISH
1t was one of those sort Of games that
plays havoc with enthusiasts dispositions.
There were many ifs" and "ohs" during
the early part Of the battle, but
they were forgotten during the ex-
element of the seventh and eighth
innings. The fielding OF both teams was
ragged at times. but several brilliant plays
were made. Flick played short for the
Hoosiers. as OBrien is suffering with a
lame finger. Woodruff and Fox did clever
work in the field and the outfield work was
fast Burns and Smith did good work in
the infield for Toledo.
The ARRAY started by Burns striking out

Gilks stole second, but KleinOw was re-

good.
Opportunities were offered Indianapolis

retired with no scores. The HOOsiers pre-

cOachers appeals TO the batters to put
