NEW ORLEANS, January 19.-Juggler,
coupled with Gid as the Buriew & . Neili
entry. and favorite at to >, easily won the
King Cotton stakes. the feature event at
city Park today, with Minnie Adams, Glori-
fer and James Reddick withdrawn. The
BurIew & O'Neill entry and Alma Dufour
and John Carroll. from the barn of Edward
Corrigan. were left to furnish the conten-
ton.
John Carroll was quickest away, and af-
ter making the pace for the first half-mile
stopped and Nicol. on Juggler, took up the
running From there until the finish the
result hardly ever looked in doubt. with the
Hamburg gclding going well in hand. How
ever Alma Dufour made her run around
thu far turn and Nicol. not taking any
chances. began to use his whip on jug
ger. The Hamburg geldlng drew away IN
the middle of the stretch and almost had
lead of two lengths at the finish.
Alma DufouU passed Gid and cas-
lily secured the place. John Carrolls lead
in the early stages was under sufferance.
The Tennessee gcldng, Charlie Eastman,
with 10 to l about him, equaled the world
record, LOS ID, for five and half fur-
longs when he won the r. L. Lee handicap
by a length from Coloquy. The latter
ran the distance i'm the same time last
Wedno sday, and on the strength of that
performance was q q to 10 favorite. How

Catherine +. was the favOrite in the two
year-Old race, at three furlongs. and after
being backed from : to > back to to and
with NiCol i'm the saddle had little or no
chance when Starter Cassidy released the
barrier. The Ally was crowded back with
several others and was practically left at
the post The winner turned up in George
il Holes Molle Montrose. a good-looking
fly by Cesarion. Mollie ran around her
field. and. standing a hard drive gamely
in the stretch, got up in time to win by
head.
Luke Foster and Black Mary who finish
ed second and third, were only heads back
of the winner They were favored by the
crowding which took place at the start.
That probably accounts for their being so
close at the finis...
The stecplechase over the full course
proved to be enc of the best races seen
this season. Nine started, with lncanta-
tlon. Hueston in the saddle, slight IA
vorite over CreOlin. The victory of Creo-
Lin was due entirely to the fine piece or
Workmanship shown by Morrison, who
avoided the early pace and, making his
run at the right time, outlaSted Incanta-
ton and won by a head. Incarnation ran
splendid race. and after being on the out
side OF her field throughout fought it out
gamely with Creolin at the end. Hueston
claimed foul against the winner, but the
Judges ignored it, Dawson, who was out
run in the first turn and on half the field,
closed stoutly and landed distant third.
There was but one spill, and that hap
pened to ARABIC after he took the fourth
jump. His rider, Pollock, was tossed TO the
ground and beyond little shaking up was
not injured.
