Scout and Harry Gardner fell over them.
Austin was picked up unconscious. He
was badly cut up about the face and body.

the jockeys room. where the physician In
attendance examined him. 1t is thought
tha- he is injured internally.
Neither Noone, who rode The Scout, nor
L. Smith, who rode larry Gardner, was
hurt.
The accident happened at the half-mile
pole soon after the start. The horses

opening next the rail and as pinned on
the fence and knocked down.
The race in which the mishap took place
was replete with extraordinary incidents
Sir Mincemeat, the winner. gave his back
ers a great scare by throwing Jockey
Walker while at the post. Then he gal
loped nearly three furlongs. He was then
caught and led back to the barrier. When
Walker remounted he began his crazy an
tics again.
He was on his hind legs when the barrier
rosa. In flash he settled down and caught
his stride. Before the leaders reached the
quarter pole he had caught and passed
them. Once in front he opened up big gap
and remained there to the end. He won
easily by open daylight.
Track Was Heavy.
Al early rainstorm made the track

A report was in circulation last night
that Louis Celia Of ST. Louis, one of the
powers in the Western Jockey Club and a
bitter turf enemy of Edward Corrigan, had
bought the City Park stock owned by Rep

and Rome Respess. This stock will give
Celia control of the City Park course.
AS Celia is largely interested in the Fair
Grounds track. his presence in the rival
camp will do much to stir up friction. He
may ultimately force COrrigan out.

fairs. The first race of the season for two
year-olds will be run and every race horse
has year added to his age The race for
the babies is only three furlongs. This
short distance may prove to be trying

promises to be heavy.
