Whip USED VIGOROUSLY
walnut Hall and Hawthorne Crowded
Him at the Wire i'm Every Heat
Lowered Track Record.

HARTFORD, Conn.,, Sept. 10.-Some royal
racing was seen at Chester Oak Park to-
day by the 10000 persons in attendance. 1t
was all confined, however, to the Charter
Oak stake event in which a field of twelve
horses participated. Billy Buck carrying off
the honors and the big end of the purse by
winning all three heats. Each heat being
race, the battle never waned, and Smath-
ers's bay gelding compelled to use
every inch of speed he possessed to accomp-
lish what he did. Both Walnut Hall and
Hawthorne pushed him so hard that whip
ping finishes characterized every contest,
the leaders being neck and neck as they
passed under the wire. In each heat the
first horse received 1900 and the second
$780, The remaining $4,000 was then divided
according to the summary at the conclusion
of the third heat, 5000 going to the first
horse. $500 to the second $500 TO the third
and 500 to the fourth. The final division,
therefore, was Billy Buck $500; Walnut
Hail. $1,000; Hawthorne. Sl,1O0, and Swift,
$5C0
In the first heat Walnut Hall had the
pole and he held the lead all the way round.
In the stretch Billy Buck, who was trail
ing closely, let out a kfnk and for the last
loo yards the horses raced neck and neck.
As they passed under the wire the finish
ner. although a goodly number were of
opinion that it either Walnut Halls
race or a tie. The decision of the judges,
however, was different and did not meet
with general favor.
In the next heat the same two horses
fought ii out. Billy Buck having the add
vantage of the pole, and won by a half
length in an exciting finish.
When the horses lined for the final test
Starter Walter had much trouble in getting
the field away. The scoring account of
breaks and disobedience of orders was long
and tedious, and was only brought to a close
when every driver threatened with a
fine of 800 if the requirements were not
adhered to. From the word go IL was
a fight between Hawthorne and the favOrite
Billy Buck was headed twice being in third
place at the half, but Geers demonstrated
his generalship by avoiding pockets, so that
when the stretch was reached he was in a
position to fight it out with Hawthorne and
Swift, who were leading. AS the wire was
being reached whips were welded with a
vengeance and the spectators were on their
feet yelling vOciferOusly for their favOrites.
At the distance flag it looked like Haw-
thorne's race, but in the final dash Billy
Buck made another of his famous rallies
and swept under the wire a winner by a
nose His time in the first race is the record
for the Charter Oak stake event-2:07%.
In the 2:13 trot and the 2:0S pace there
was some spirited work. Promise. the ia
vorite in the trot, was beaten by Belle
Kurser, while Locanda, the favorite in the
pace, had a walkoVer.
Tomorrow Dan Patch will go a mile
against his record of 80, but, owing to the
weather and track conditions, it is not be-
lieved he can equal his mark. Summaries:
