ANOTHER DISPUTE
ABOUT FOULING
Shaw Accused of Rough
Work at Saratoga.
THE LAYERS HAVE SUFFERED
Too Much Wise Money Dumped in Ring
by Big Plungers-Drake Fights
Meat Bill.

oANAIOGA, Aug. 2.-The SteWa rdS
nave again had a question Of foul 10
decide, but this time they failed to find
reasons strong enough for a disqualifi-
cation and the horses were placed as
they had finished.
The trouble came in the third race
and the offender was Shaw. who rode
the winner, Lochinvar All through the
home stretch Shaw's colt was inclined
TO go over 10 the inner rail, and in
the last sixteenth of n mile of his trip
he succeeded in getting there. To do
this he was compelled to cross Incense
and Workman. and there Is no question
but what he did cross them, but the
point at issue was: Did he. in doing
this, impede the others? The officials
by refusing to allow the foul must have
taken the view that the colt and Shaw
were clear at the time.
Hildebrand. on Workman. could not
have shared in this opinion. 70. he
pulled his colt up short a. couple Of
strides from the end to prevent what he
believed would be an accident Among
the horsemen the general opinion
seemed 10 be that the foul should have
been allowed, out some could be found
who were positive chat Hndebrand
made matters look worse than they
really were; that is, pulling up when
there was no need for it.
0ld-Timer Returns.
Lochinvar. the colt that caused all the
trouble. ran in the name and colors OF
Charley Reed, who. in his day. was one
Of the central figures Of the American
turf. This is the first racing he has
done since the days Of Jerome Park
where Peter Anna and a few others
earned glory TOR the cherry and blue.
He has been breeding steadily at Fair
view. as his farm is called. sending to
the market each year a choice colie.c-
ton OF yearlings. The success Of this
colt I1Ochinvar was very pleasing to
him, 9nd il may be the means Of bring
ing hlm back into an active part In
racing; that is, he may race the pick

IOmestead's victory I'm the closing

due solely to Fullers brilliant work in
the hnal drive. Keynote was pounds
the best horse, but IL was SDerIlnp

WORST INNING
SEEN HERE YET
DetrOit'S Fearful and Won
derfui SIKH.
WASHINGTON SPLIT EVEN
Took First Game, But Lost Second.
Mccormick Had Weird Day.
Herring Did Well.

Never was a worse inning seen than
that shown by Detroit in the sixth in
ming OF the first game yesterday wher
Washington made seven runs on four
hits and four errors, thereby winning the
game by Z TO 3 and giving the spectators
delirious delight. As the Tigers were
only able 10 make two runs IN the nine
innings. il was indeed q happy moment
for the tailenders.
The second game was not so joyous
for the Senators. They were victims
of wild Bill Donovan and Barry Nc
Cormick. both of whom did noble work
in giving the game TO the visitors, by
3 to 2
Went to Pieces.
That sixth inning was a beautiful ex-
ample of the way in which a ball team
can go to pieces worse than the Popu-
list party when things go wrong. A
few hits. with assorted hunts. put the
Tigers so far in the air that they look
ed like a meat price-list. in strike times
-Four different men juggled the leather
in the one session. and there We're one
, or two other doings that only n spirit
of sweet charity prevented from being
called misplays- The ball logged the De-
troit fielders as If they were a colec-
ibid once in a while nab the festive
sphere it played ring-a-around rosy with
their fingers in a dttenish manner that
was a great source of comfort to the
Senator's who were homeward bound.
Nothing Else Doing.
Before and after that fateful inning
there was nothing doing for the SEN.
atOrs. and Mullin had them practically
at his mercy. 1t was a neat battle be-
tween him and, Hughes, but on the
whole Hughes had somewhat the better
Of the argument.
Jacobsen was pitted against Donovan
in the second game and got the worst
OF the contention, as the Tigers bounced
upon his delivery with great enthusiasm
and made hits when they were needed.
Barry Mccormick had a weird day
He made several stops and throws that
were Of the hair raising order. but with
these notable deeds he mixed up some
SpOOldsh, uncanny performances that
were more suggestive OF a trance than
live man on his feet. In the second
inning Of the second game he made a
graudstand, one-hand catch off O'I.earv
that was All the money, and then threw
wild to catch Beville at third In the
next inning he was mile OF in Judging
an easy one, and again in the fifth round
he miscued-
