PLOW HORSE Won
$4,000 STAKES

Detroit, Mich, Sept 21.--Continuing
his unbroken string of successes.
Thomas w. Murphy's r. II. O., won a
hollow victory in the Michigan 49,
900 stake, the feature Of the grand
circuit card at the Michigan State
fair grounds. He took the three heats
just as he pleased.
Only one race on the programme
furnished anything like real con-
test. After Moretta had taken the
first heat OF the 2:15 pace I'm easy
fashion, Patrick Pointer, who had fln-
ished fifth In the first round developed
staying qualities and captured the next
three after hard strength drives.
In the Michigan stake for 2:15 trot-
ters, Murphy allowed his rivals TO
make the pace In each heat until we'll
into the stretch. Then, trotting easily
and smoothly, r. r. G. went to the
front and won without urging. Cor
don Todd made a game effort in the
second heat leading almost to the dis
lance flag, but the farm graduate was
not to be denied. He forced Geers'
stallion to break and the rest was
easy.
r. T.. G. has now won I'VE $4,000
stakes this year one $1,000, and in adj
dition one purse event In only one
heat has he failed to lead his field to
the wire-the third In the Furniture
stake at Kalamazoo, when he was
beaten by Belvasia.
In the first heat OF the 2:12 trot,
Sanders sent Maude Light a dozen
lengths out in front at the start and
held nearly the whole of his advantage
to the wire. The second heat was al
most as easy. In the third, Wilmer
ing came with rush down the
stretch. Sanders was leading by a
big margin, but he took no chances
and sent his mare along under the
whip to three-length win.
After Sunny Jim and Rollins had
each captured one heat in the 2:07
pace, the deciding heat went over UNI
TIL today, it being too late to finish
the race before dark.
