CHICAGO, Sept. 19.-Fortune and the
conditions imposed by the man who
makes up the races favored Ed Corrigan
at Hawthorne to-day, his horses captur-
ing four of the six races. The feature
was the victory of MCGEE in the Fleetfoot
handicap which the colt won by a short
head from Beau Ormonde.- 1t was SEN
sational struggle at the end and the vic
tory was practically a luke. MCGEE
seemed beaten off at the head Of the
stretch. AS the field swung at the stretch
turn Baker brought MCGEE through on
the inside, saving much ground and en-
abling him to win by a scant head. So
close was the betting that McGee, Golden
Rule and The Kentuckian went to the
post equal favorites at to 2, and all of
