CHICAGO, June 6. - An "old-fash-
ioned killing" was made by Frangible
in the first race at Harlem this after
noon. This one-time popular horse on
the local tracks was the goods to-
day and when he opened at 20 to /
there was a rush from every quarter
of the ring to get aboard. When the
bugle call sounded the horses to the
post, Frangible had been backed down
to IL to and money was still going on
him.
Frangible broke next to last in a
field of eleven, but his jockey, Knapp,
gradually wore down his field, got up
to third position in the stretch and in
the final eighth the old horse ran over
his field and won going away, with a
length and half to spare.
Accidents completely marred the
steeplechase, which was one of the
features of the card. Out of six start
ers, only two finished the course, the
winner being \Montanic, a 6 to l shot.
while Donami, the extreme outsider in
the betting, at 40 to 1, was second.
These were the only two which averted
any mishap.
The weather conditions were none too
pleasant at Harlem to-day, a stiff, cold
wind blew down the home stretch and
made things generally unpleasant. The
track was much better than was ex-
pected and although still lumpy and
rough, was comparatively dry.
Starter Dwyer, who was operated
upon late Saturday for appendicitis, is
reported as making favorable progress
toward recovery.
Not a favorite won during the after
noon. Results:
