THE HARVESTER
BREAKS RECORD
Another Worlds Mark Is Set at
Grand Circuit Races at
Cleveland.
By Associated Press.

CLEVELAND, o., Aug. 13-Another
worlds record was broken az the Grand
Circuit races at North Randall park to-
day. The Harvester, driven by Ed Geers,
won the two heats of the 2:06 trot In
2:043 and 2:031, respectively. making the
two fastest heats ever trotted In a race
by stallion. Incidentally. The Harvester
clipped one second OFF his own record.
equaled the stallion trotting record made
by Cresceus at the Brighton Beach track
In 1902. and set now mark for 5-year
Old trotting stations in race In the
second heat.
The stallion had such a big lead over
Sonoma Girl. Wilkesheart and ORC thai
Geers did not extend him in the stretch;
have eclipsed CresceuS'S record of 2;0iA.
made against time at Columbus In 1907.
which still, stands as the stallion trot-
ting record.
The final heat of the 2:17 trot. unfin-
ished from yesterday, developed pretty
fight between Dovell and Butterbrook,
the three quarter pole, when Butter
brook broke and Dovell won without
trouble.
Acting on Instructions from Governor
Harmon. Sheriff a, j. Hirstus and "A
corps OF deputies ralded the betting shed
shortly after the races began. As far
as making arrests was concerned the
raid was ineffective. as the tip had been
given and the bookes disappeared.
Others, however, had not been warned
and the sherin found them standing pa
tiently in long lines before the bettlnS
stands. Protesting bitterly. they We're
hustled out of the shed. \ number OF
these disappointed bettors spent fruit
less evening hunting for the bookies with
whom they made their wagers.
