The San Francisco call., 1904-09-07
Big Bill' Knapp Lands Fon-
caSta a Winner Over
Fossil.
Special Dispatch to IN. Cali.

CHICAGO, Sept. 6.-Oniy an ordinary
card was presented at Harlem to-day
and small crowd was in attendance
Long shots had pretty much their own
way, winning four OF the seven events.
Probably the best race of the after
noon was the third, a, mile and seventy
yards affair. Fossil, on his previous
performance, looked to be in a soft
spot and was always an odds on choice.
Opening at to TO- he was pounded
down to II to 20. Those whe never back
odds on choices took chance on Will
liam Wright, forcing him from to l
to Is to 5. Foncasta went up from to
to 1.
William Wright shot to the front at
the start and set a slow pace. At the
far turn Fossil passed William Wright
and his hackers expected to see him
come home alone. In the meantime
Big Bill Knapp had saved Foncasta
for the final effort and when called
upon the Curl colt rushed to the front
and won as he pleased with three
lengths to spare. Summary:
