Big MAC AGAIN WINNER
GREAT THOROUGHBRED TAKES THE
SECOND SPECIAL EASILY.
Defeats The Picket and Sheriff Bell,
and Gallops Home by Two and
q Half Lengths.

NEW YORK, Sept. 19.-McChesney, with
Fuller in the saddle, won the second special
at Gravesend to-day. McChesney was a hot
favorite in the betting, opening at 8 to 5
and being steadily played down until / to 2
was the best price obtainable at postime.
1t was reported around the ring that Mr..
Smathers won close to SIS 5000 on victories
with McChesney and Irene Lindsay, which
won the sixth race.
The second special was for three-year-olds
and upwards at a mile and a half. Four
were carded to start, but Moon Daisy de-
clined the issue. McChesney, 126, The
Picket, 10, O'Neil up, and Sheriff Bell, ITO,
Callahan, up, started for the stake. AS
McChesney passed the stand on the way to
the post he was greeted with loud applause.
They were sent away quickly to a good
start. Sheriff Bell went out to make the
pace. followed by The Picket, with Nc
Chesney two lengths back. Passing the
stand the first time Sheriff Bell held his
lead, with The Picket second and McChes-
ney in last position. This order was MAIN
tanned around the paddock turn and into
the back stretch. Coming to the mile pole
O'Neil and Fuller began to move up on the
leader. Rounding the far turn the three
horses were running head and head, with
McChesney on the outside. At the head of
the stretch McChesney was slowly forging
to the front, and at the one-eighth pole was
a good length in front. From there to the
finish he just galloped home, winning easily
by two lengths and a half from The Picket,
which. in turn. was six lengths in front of
Sheriff Bell.
The SIS, 900 Hindoo stakes for three-year-
Odds was won RaSllv nv the f. Xnrifp Hurst
bourne, with Janeway second and Gimcrack
third. This is the first year of this stake,
and only a fair lot faced the starter; Phaon
was the pacemaker for nearly a mile, when
Janeway took Janeway con-
tinued to show the way to the stretch, when
Hurstbourne moved out and won easily by
three lengths.
Jockey H. Callahan had a bad fall in the
last race, but escaped with a shaking up.
Mordella, the winner of the race, was dis
qualified for fouling. Summaries:
