Are Beaten by Outsiders
at Saratoga Springs.
OWNERS BID UP HORSES

Saratoga, N Y, Aug 10.-Turf records
VII show you conclusively that Lahore
and Coming Tower fell by the wayside
this afternoon As you can imagine. the
route was simply heartrending. Did not
the stars and the good old dope book
with its cold. black figures show that
these wonderful runners could not lose? d?
They did. Therefore there is not much
unconfined Joy on Broadway.
Lahore was such a sure thing that
the lads did not hesitate to take to on
him. Then they saw Lindenthal just
stand Lahore on his head so deep that
the latter finished third in a three-hors
race.
That was bad. but Coming Tower -oi
yoi-they'll never get over that Coming
Tower had won his last three races so
easily that he was figured TO be clear
velvet The best one could obtain against
him was 70 Z. Reybourn was well
backed at 10 to /
Superintendent, the other starter, was
Is to s. but nobody gave him a tumble.
The trio started running. and for half
a mile Coming Tower slipped along
through the mud in right smart fashion.
Just about this mark his hackers began
to perspire, for Reybourne came skim
ming along the rail and hooked up with
the prohibitive choice.
Swinging around the turn, Reybourne
got his snoot in front Dashing into the
stretch, Reybourne was a few lengths in
front. Crossing the line. Reybourne was
ten lengths in front and the field was
strewn with the dead. Reybourne ran
the seven furlongs in 1:S2. which is re-
markable, for the track is at least six
seconds slow to the mile.
The owners had on their bidding
clothes today. and in three races lacked
up the entered prices of the winners. ].
