New York, Aug "a Saratoga spe-

John J. Ryan, of get rich quick

DAVIS betting transactions last week. and
in order to settle up his obligations ne
went to the local bank for the money.
He discovered that hundred-doliar
bills We're the largest the bank otfic1ais
had, and they did not have many OF
them. Rather reluctantly he accepted
all the hundred-dollar bills that they
had and others of small denominations
to the amount of nearly $50, 900.
This money he placed in basket. and
with a stalwart guard went around the
ring paying off his debts. 1t was a
sight that caused the rail birds and
touts to swarm in his wake, nor did they
leave him until he. had handed the last
note to the lucky bookmakers.

Smathers Lost Big Sum OF
Money at Brighton.
Out $50, 900 Backing His Choice
Billy Buck.
THOUGHT HIM WINNER.
Bet Money as Long as the
" Bookies - WOnld Take.
But the Horse Had Soft
Streak and Lost.

New York, Aug. 27.-Betting all the
Grand Circuit plungers and pikers to
standstill single-handed. e. E. Smath-
ers. the well known New York road
rider, wagered and lost on his new
horse, Billy Buck, 2:071z, more money
than one man ever poured into the pool
box on the result of contest between
trotters.
Mr.. Smathers purchased the horse
for $4,000 from Ed Geers after he had
won a sensational race at the Empire
track, believing he could win the $4,000
Bonner Memorial stakes at Brighton
Beach, the largest prize ever offered
for a race in the Grand Circuit.
From the moment the names of the
starters were posted until the bell in
the betting ring sounded the signal
that The horses were off Mr.. Smathers
and his commissioners never stopped
backing Billy Buck. In several of the
first pools sold Mr.. Smathers paid $1,000
for his horse. while the twelve fast
trotters entered against him together
brought 81, 130. Although such plung-
ers as Nick Hubinger, J. L. Druien
and come millionaire merchants and
brokers were backing the others, the
weight of Mr.. Smathers' money made
the odds recede until just before the
start Billy Buck sold for 800 to $50 for
the field.
Ten thousand persons were present
to see the contest for the richest prize
of the year. After winning one heat
Billy Buck, a short bred horse from the
pine woods of Alabama, gave way to
gamer trOtterS. At the end of five
heats-aH of them trotted below 2:10-
the final victory fell to Hawthorne, a
high-bred roam 5-year-old mare from
the bluegrass region of Kentucky,
driven in mastery style by Scott Hud-
son, who won the Bonner Memorial
with the blind stallion, rhythmic, in
1902
Mr.. Smathers did not hedge a bet
Relying on the skill of ED" Geers and
the speed of his horse, he sat smiling
and chatting with a party of friends in
a private box in the grandstand while
pool tickets calling for something like
$4,000 were turned to worthless paste
board. a purse worth $4,000 was lost
and horse that had before looked like
the best trotter in his class. with en-
gagements worth $4,000 more ahead of
him, blew up" and exposed the soft
streak that was in him Billy Buck
had the speed of the party, and if he
had possessed only one-haIf the nerve
and courage of the man who owned
him he would have won the race in
straight heafs.
Men who should know said that Mr..
Smathers had wagered about $4,000 on
his horse. Add to this the sum of SIS
600. which he paid for Billy Buck ex-
pressly to win the Bonner Memorial,
and it is evident that his ambition to
land the big stake cost him something
like S46 900.
Mr.. Smathers' losses at the Brighton
meeting are not all represented by his
plunge on Billy Buck. Earlier in the
week he paid $500 for the fast PAGER
Tom Keene. 2:04, during a race, and
then backed him for enough to win

horse was beaten by Frank Yoakum
