LOU DILL0N'S
NECK WAS CUT

CLEVELAND, December 7.-One incident
in connection with the poor showing of Lou
Dillon in the Memphis cup race two years
ago which may be of Importance has never
been made public.
Willard Sanders. who had trained the lit
tie mare before the contest, said at Glen
Vile the summer before Major Delmar had
defeated the champion trotting mare in the
race at Memphis:
Some one evidently tried to do up Lou
Dillon before we started south last year.
l went into her stall one morning, and
noticed blood On her neck Upon making
an investigation I discovered a long cut
had been done with knife. The cut was
on the side on which the name fell, and this
covered 1T completely"
Sanders did not say whether or not he
told c. X. G. Billings, owner of the mare.
about the injury. He was of the opinion
that the cut was responsible for the mares
poor work from that time.
Sanders related this incident before the
charges of drugging against Smathers had
been made and before any good reason had
been assigned for the mares poor work
Lou Dillon has never equaled her great
performance on the track since Sanders
claimed her stable was entered and the
knife applied to her neck. Cleveland
Lou Dillon's queer actions. In the height
of her career, when almost any limit of
speed seemed hers, she broke down and
was una BILE to win a race in time that was
broken day after day on the Chenille track
while working out.

WELL-KNOWN JOCKEYS
IN HOT WATER

NEW YORK, December 7.-Although the
winter racing season is young yet, two
well-known Jockeys who rode here last sea-
son have succeeded in getting into hot
water. Bedell. who had the mount on j.
w. Fuller's Tokalon when she won the
Brooklyn handicap, and l.. Williams, who
rode for w. B. Jennings and others here,
are on the carpet, so to speak. Bedell has
been suspended by the stewards at the Fair
Grounds, New Orleans, for suspicious
looking ride on the colt ]. w. O'Neill in a
recent event. O'Neill ,pened favorite at
to S, but went up in the betting to to L.
At the beginning of the race he showed
some speed, but Bedell apparently took him
up and finished outside Of the money. The
stewards promptly collected the sheets and
an investigation is now under way that
may result in the Jockeys Punishment. l..
Williams, a coored Jockey, came east from
the coast last spring under contract for
Jennings, for whom he did some clever
riding. But when Jennings left for Cali
fornia after the Brighton fall meeting Will
Jams remained and came In for some Sc
we're scoring because of several rides that
looked bad Williams put up perform
ance on the horse Bobbie Kean at Belmont
Park in October that was pronounced a
glaring piece of business Turfmen who
watched this race closely said that Bobbie
Kean, after being under a hard pull, took
the bit in his teeth and literally ran away
with Williams, finishing second, beaten a
head. Before Williams left the local tracks
he was under cloud. But as soon as he
got to California he began riding again for
Jennings. The colored Jockeys work, how
ever, was not up to the mark and after sew
eral queer rides even Jennings threw up his
hands and decided to set Williams adrift.
The jockey promptly signed with another
turfman, but it is said that the officials of
the Oakland track are watching the negro
closely. All of the winter tracks. by the
way, are governed by strict officials who
will stand for no monkeyshnes.

S0CKALExIS' SHORT
BASE BALL CAREER

The success OF Frank Jude, the Indian
outfelder. with the Toledo club last season,
recalls that other famous redskin ball
player. Sockalexis. whose career was as
short as IT was startling.
The first pay envelope handed Sockalexis
after he Joined the Cleveland club contained
$l15 in new bank bills. The red man sat
down in the hotel office and counted the
money over and over. Then he made a lit
tie trip into the place where the glasses
jingled, and. coming out, counted his two
weeks earnings again.
This process OF counting and quenching
his thirst had been going on for an hour
or two, when Pitcher Frank Wilson came
along.
How much OF that are you going to put
in the bank. Sox?" asked Wilson.
We'll" said the Indian, glancing up from
the money in his lap to the door that led to
the bar room, this you know, Is Saturday
Tomorrow will be Sunday. l guess, maybe
Ill have a dollar and half left by the
time the bank opens Monday morning."
When Sox made his first trip to Cincin-
natl with the Cleveland club he found
awaiting him at the Gibson House a dozen
perfumed notes. Tebeau saw the letters In
the Indians hand. You are hired to play
ball Don't forget that"
Sox promised, but Patsy was suspicious
and kept watch that night. The red man
came tiptoeing in about am. He was sur
prised to see his manager, but he was equal
10 the emergency.
'Shucks" he said. 81 saw 'em all. Can.
ana honestly. L wouldn't trade a certain
little squaw In Old Town for the whole
bunch"
Sockalexis was greeted In Chicago with
Indian war whoops by the fans and by the
taunts OF the players. II never saw a red

Dinneford. 1t is remarkable that keystone
II and Dinneford won only three races
apiece. but the latter captured the Princess
of Wales stakes, the most valuable turf
event but one of the entire season. An
other big winner, Llangibby, has only one
victory to his credit. but that was the
Eclipse stakes, the richest prize of the
year, worth SAG, 425.
The eight leading English sires Of 1906
are Ladas and Persimmon. the produce of
each having won nearly 100000. The get
Of Carbine won $75. 900; Ballinule. $1,000;
Isinglass, $65, 600, and Marco. $65, 600. There
are fourteen sires in the list with over $40.-
900 to their credit, and nearly dozen
others close to that figure. These figures
indicate that there has been more equality
among the leading sires during 1906 than
for many years previously.
The champion two-year-old, Polar star,
Is a grandson Of Galopin. by Pioneer-Go
On. and was bred by Col. Walker IN Ire
land. Polar Star. however, was not the
greatest money winning juvenile. as he Is
credited with only $4,000, as against
Traquair's $4,000.
Cicero, the champion three-year-old OF
1905 In England, amounted to nothing this
year, and the credit for being the best
distance runner of the all-aged division
goes to Polemelus. the Cyllene four-year-
old. winner Of the Cambridgeshire, Duke of
York and Champion stakes

ming jockeys in number Of wins, while
Danny Maher has equally as strong lead
in percentage of wins. Maher has been in

CASES HEARD BEFORE
NATIONAL TROTTING BOAD

NEW YORK. December 1.-The board Of
review of the National Trotting Association
resumed it's annual session yesterday at the
Murray Hill Hotel. A number of cases were
heard during the day, including the one
against AL Thomas, the well-known driver,
for refusing to start a horse in the third
heat of a race at Syracuse on September r.
The first. case heard was that of the asso-
citation against certain timers, growing out
of race in York, Pa. this fall. One of the
timers was present and testified that it was
ignorance alone that had caused the change
of the horses time. He recognized. now, he
said that, although the practice of chang
ing times was in vogue throughout the
southern Pennsylvania tracks, the change
of the horses time was not in consonance
with the rules of the association.
while we reserve our decision until we
meet in executive session." said President
Johnston, yet I must tell you that this is
a serious offenSe, and we penalize others
like it whenever we can get an opportunity.
We have penaized them for twenty
years. They must be suppressed, for they
constitute grievous injury to the turf
The Thomas case took up much time. and
a number of witnesses went on the stand
among them Mr.. Thomas himself The
apology which he wrote was also offered in
evidence. 1t was as follows:
AT the state fair in Syracuse in the state
of New York during the month of Septem-
Der of the present year 1 offended the
judges of race by refusing to start a
horse called Mainsheet in the third heat
of the race, after having driven him the
first two heats, losing the first and winning
the second, of which l was wrongfully de-
prived by the decision of the judges on
the ground that l had committed foul,
which l distinctly denied. know now after
serious thought, that it is my duty to sub
NIT to the rulings of the judges of race
even when / know they are wrong (proper
md off nrr1v,, ont al
be maintained), and look to the board of
review to correct the error. l, therefore,
apologize to the judges of the national as
ISOLATION. to the association itself and to
the public for my failure to promote the
interests of the sport by conforming to the
directions of the judges and starting my
horse in the third heat Of the race"
Decision was reserved on the appeal from
suspension by w. s. Miller, who was dis
ciplined for non-payment of certain en-
trance fees. He claimed that his horse
Lake Queen, was named for certain races
without his consent by w. J. Rosemeyer
who had contracted to drive the mare.

LOWE AND SMITH
BOX FAST DRAW

PHILADELPHIA. December 7.-After
being saved by the bell in the second round
Tommy Lowe OF Washington made a grand
stand finish in the fifth and sixth rounds
against Sammy Smith Of this city last night
at the Broadway Athletic Club and at the
finish was entitled to a draw It was
Smiths first appearance in a Philadelphia
ring for over a year, but he has lost none
of his one-time cleverness During the
first round he had Lowe completely buff
faloed and just before the bell rang for
the end Of the second he put Lowe down
with an ugly clip on the jaw. Lowe was
practically out but just as Referee Bailey
slowly tolled of nine seconds the bell rang
for the end of the round. Lowe could
hardly get to his feet and had the round
been one second longer Smith would have
won with a knockout to his credit. Lowe
came up rather groggy for the third round

any player dissatisfied? Williamsport has
been doing this same thing, not only at
present, but in the past. The Tri-State
League can get along without Wtlliamsport
