Jockey Garner Ia Fined.

New Orleans, Dec Bit was a siren
uous day for favorite players at the City
Park track this afternoon. Only one of
the heavily played favorites managed to
catch the judges eyes first, and the fact
that this lonely favorite was in the clos
ing event did not add much to the de-
pleted bank rolls Of the faithful talent
1t was just one continual dump, and the
twenty-eight large layers that operated
in the ring had things all their own way
The sensation Of the afternoon was the
disqualification of Envoy in the fourth
race. The Dunno colt was made the ia
vorite In the betting and looked TO be a
good thing to the plunging contingent.
and was heavily played at to 5. Alma
Dufour, from the Corrigan stable was
also considered some of the ripe fruit
and was played down from to l TO 3 to 5.
None of the others were considered. Roy
al Breeze and Alma Dufour had raced to-
gether until the head of the stretch was
reached, when Royal Breeze dropped out
of il and Envoy took up the running with
Alma DufOur. The pair hooked up at
the eighth pole. and from there home it
was a question of which jockey was the
better.
Garner Fined and ReprInsanded.
Nicol, who rode the Corrigan mare, out
finished Garner who had the leg IN on
Envoy, and secured the decision by
neck. DebaT, the rank outsider, beat
Royal Breeze for the SHOW. Envoy fin
fshed second. and on complaint of Hen
nessey. who rode Royal Breeze, was dis
qualified for fouling the latter. The
judges were not bit slow, and immedi-
ately took action, fining Garner $50 and
also giving him severe reprimand. Gar
ner deserved the fine. as he has all but
caused number Of serious accidents here
since the present racing season has been
inaugurated.
Jack McAuliffe the former lightweight
champion Of the world, won his first race
on the turf to-day. with Pierrot a cast
off from the stable Of James r. Keene.
Pierrot was opposed by a fair lot OF maid
ems, and, getting away we'll in motion,
raced along with SpiOn until the head OF
the stretch, where he drew away without
much effort. and won easily. Henry Bos-
worth was 3-to-1 choice over the field,
but failed to show any speed. Prince
Ahmed. with 80 to ! against him, grabbed
third place from the well-backed Glen
dover.
