KING DIRECT BEATEN.
Coast Marie Wins Odd Heat at
Weekly T'rotting Meeting.

Fast time and exciting contests characterized the
third weekly trottng meeting Of the New York
Driving Club at Empire City Park yesterday.
The race OF the day brought together c. s. Rices
unbeaten pacing mare Coast Marie and James
Buffers black stallion King Direct, owners driv-
Ing Mr.. Rice seemed unable to make the mare
go her best clip, and she was beaten in hollow
style in the first heat. DR. H. D. Gill. who recently
sold her to Mr.. Rice, took the reins before the
next heat paced. In the first furlong she
crowded King Direct who had the pole cutting
him of and causing him TO break. It was a palpa-
bic foul in the opinion of all horsemen who saw
the race. Mr.. Buffers horse twelve or fifteen
lengths behind when he recovered his stride. He
closed the gap under a hard drive. but could not
beat the mare. Mr. Butler declined to lodge
complaint against DR.. Gill. He said the judges
were there to such things. The judges, how
ever, failed to act, and the heat was awarded to
Coast Marie. DR.. Gill frankly admitted that his
mare had crowded King Direct, but said he had
tried to prevent her from bearing in toward the
King Direct who has not been regularly trained
