SARATOGA, n. Y, Aug u.-There was
considerable more humidity than breeze
a { the track to-day. 1t was simply swell
terng- So far as the programme was
concerned it was an excellent one for
Friday. Rustling Silk won the fourth
race after a drive through the stretch
with Arkiirta. The latter came UP on the
rail but did not have enough left to beat
Rustling Silk. Adonis was third. Knapp
claimed q foul against Rustling Silk and
Baird also made claim against some
horse for interference. Judging from the
decision it was against Arklirta, for that
colt was disqualified and Pythia placed
third. Baird claimed that Knapp struck
him across the back with his whip and
fouled him at the head of the stretch.
For this Arklirta was disqualified.
Knapp was fined $500 and suspended for
one week
Plunger Joe Yeager came into Imelight
to-day in earnest, and when the smoke
cleared away he was S40O 900 to the good.
In the second race in which three-year-
olds and upward ran a mile, he started
his mare Canteen and backed her from
nVe down to two to one, despite the
strong popular support of Lady Ellison.
Canteen won, and Yeager cleaned up at
least $4,000. Following so soon on the
heels of ]. ]. Ryan's $685. coup on Ath-
lone, the young Westerner's successful
plunge created sensation in the ring.
