WINNIE O'CONNOR'S
LIFE THREATENED.
Receipt Of Letter Predicting
Disaster, Which Was Par.
TALLY Carried Out, Worries
Jockey and Employer.

The receipt of a threatening le%tor
predicting disaster. which was partially
carried out during the first race at
Brighton yesterday. has greatly worried
Jockey winnie O'Connor and his en-
plorer. Albert Featherstone. Nj.
Featherstone says lie will pay $1,000 for
Information leading to the detection of
the person responsible for the letter.
Fred Dalton was the mamie signed to
the letter. He accused O'Connor OF
riding for the bookmakers. and continu.
Ing, said: II intended to kill you last
evening. but missed you by two minutes.
You will ride No. 13 in the first race
to-day. and you will be killed. 1t
you are not. l will kill you anyhow"
Beyond being a little puzzled as to
the motive for the attack, O'Connor
thought little of 1t until engaged to ride
Kittaning in the opening race. Kittan-
ing, as the letter foretold. was No. 10,
o'Conner was still nervy, but thought
that he should show the letter to his
employer, who was surprised at Its
contents.
Kittaning was considered to be an i'm
portant factor in the race. and he was
strongly supported at odds Of 4 to /.
Como got him away well. and he
ran in a nice position until near the
head of the stretch.
Suddenly the colt stepped in d soft
spot in the track, and before O'Connor
could get him going he was struck by
another horse. He was knocked into the
fence and O'Connor's foot was crushed
against the rail. lie pulled Kittanine
up and dismounted, the injury being
very painful. Judge Hall drove along
in his buggy, and O'Connor. was assisted
into the conveyance. En- route to the
judges stand he removed his boot in
order to relieve the pressure.
The stewards Eel down to the track
and questioned O'Connor as to who was
responsible for the accident, but he was
unable to state what horse crowded
him. The jockey was taken to a room.
and the track surgeon attended him.
1t was found that no bones were broken.
but that the foot was bruised. The
jockey put on a soft boot, which later
he found necessary TO cut, n he was
quite lame during the afternoon.

HANLON WROUGHT up.


brooklyn Team Gets Dressing
Down for Two st. Louis Defeats.
ST. LOUIS, Mo-. July 12.-The Han
lonites one and all got a dressing down
after they reached their hotel last night,
and Irwin particularly was given the
for his wretched South
Brooklyn throw In the sixth inning.
There is no use crying over spilled
milk, and post-mortem examinations
won't add to batting averages or put
Brooklyn m closer to the Pirates, but
it was Irwin who lost yesterdays game.
With two men out in the sixth Irwin
came pretty near throwing the ball out
OF the lot. and two Cardinals scampered
across the pan with the runs that won
the game.
AS a punishment for their bad ball
sins the Trolley Dodgers were ordered
to do a morning practice stunt t see II
they couldn't find the ball occasionally.
All sorts of dire threats were handed
out to the Fasteners II they failed to
take both to-day's and Sundays games
from the desp.sed Donovanites.
The latter. however. are rounding into
great shape, and Hanlon's boys wild
have their hands full getting one game
OF the remaining series.
