SEATTLE, July 2l-Public form
proved an improbable guide for spec
ulators at The Meadows today. Koro-
silany and Uncle Henry. whose previous
performances were not specially prom
ising. made good as favorites, but Cob
leskil and J. f Donahue. whose
chances on recent races appeared so
good that both were held at odds on
and which were backed accordingly,
disappointed the public badly. Coble-
skill was seemingly unable to do bet
ter than finish a distant third while
DOnahue figured among the also rams.
Donahue's showing provoked a great
deal Of unpleasant comment, inasmuch as
the horse had scored a cantering vic
tory at a mile and a quarter in 2:05
a few days ago, while today he was
beaten off many lengths in 2:06 with
less weight up. There was general
expectation that Donahue's glaring re-
Versal would evoke official action of a
disciplinary sort. But none was forth
coming. 1t is intimated that an in
Vestigation OF the race will be held to-
morrow, however. Half the card went
10 long shots. for which there had been
little backing.
Zelina was so excitable and nervous
after her victory that Il was with diff
Guilty that she was led back to the
stand The track veterinary con-
Quoted an investigation. but could find
no evidence of improper use of stimu-
lants, which was suspected.
Upon returning TO his stable with
horse that he ran yesterday G. II. Keene
discovered that some unknown person
had deliberately slashed his good colt
Boggs, with knife across the shoul-
der inilicting a flesh wound that was
considerably infiamed today Keene
has hopes that the injury will not be
sufficiently serious to keep the horse
from starting tomorrow and in the
Derby Saturday
Columbus Jones arrived today from
Denver with his crew and viii book
shortly.
Weather clear: track fast.
