hackers no little concern before she
wrested the lead from Van Ness in
the last few yards and won by a neck
Some OF the occupants OF the grand
stand made one Of the most absurd
and unWarranted demonstrations
against the placing OF the horses al

seen AT n local lLaEh III fELLS- Al

sIILLER's STRANGE CONDUCT
Tawasentha was odds-on favorite
Tor the fifth. but found the route toe
far and landed up in third place. NoS
POpuli, with whom Miller had followed
the favorite 10 the stretch, took the
lead when the latter tired and won cas-
fly from ClamOr. who closed stoutly

any ability which he may possess.
The closing race Of the day proved
q tight fit between Mary F. the favor
ste. and Princess Titania. whose price
drifted back from 3 TO Q on account
Of her supposed aversion to track con
6itions. Sandy rode the favorite and
Mcbride was on the Princess Miller

start. saved ground on the turn and
Just did beat the Princess q neck iI

stumbled at the paddock and swervec
s bit IN consequence. Jockey Mcbride
states that Miller appeared anxious &c
have Sandy win with the favorite and
that when he carried McBrfde's mount
wide into the stretch he shouted, Come
on, Sandy" As Miller is under con-
tract 70 President Williams. for whom
Dr. III. E. ROwell. Sandys employer. is
trainer. this incident may have some
significance. II there Is any collus ion
between jockeys II should be promptly

and clean sport IN view OF this in
rident an inquiry BY the proper off,
cisls would seem 10 be the proper
thing.
Miller was the only boy TO ride two
winners. In addition he was second
once and finished out OF the money
twice. II was a day OF varied fortune
with the layers OF ODDS.
