Sam jackson a Lame Horse.

Sam Jackson, which pulled up so
lame after running second TO Borrow in
the Municipal Handicap on Wednesday,
tried to come back" in the Belmont
Park Autumn Handicap, but failed and
again pulled up on three legs, so TO
speak.
This good and game horse walked out
Of his lameness so quickly last Wednes-
day that Jack McGinnis felt justified
in sending him to the post, but it is not
likely that he will race again until he
has had another long rest.

August Belmont's stromboli, which
ran third in the Municipal, improved
under Johnny McTaggert's handling
and won in a mild drive from Trial By
Jury and the Finn. Several good judges
expressed the opinion that the last
named was best at the weights, but this
is open to question. The son of Ogden
did lose some ground by bearing out in
the stretch, but Stromboli appeared to
have something left after being pa
tiently rated off the pace for seven
furlongs.

August Belmont earned double
as Fenmouse again proved her quality

Punched off just after the start and
last In the run up the backstretch, she
closed with rare gameness and courage
and got up in time to win by head.
She Is a small FLY, but only in stature.
The bigness Of her heart makes up for
this.
Ed Heffner felt that Housemaid was
NJ her best, but the mare could not
get TO the front. where she likes 70
race, and tired after chasing the pace.
II looked for a time as II Kasksskia,
which ran second 70 Trojan in the Flu
turity Of 1914. would win her first race
as a three-year- She had speed
enough TO set a sizzling pace for FIVE
furlongs, but hung badly when chal-
lenged in the stretch, The race may
do her good, and she will start right
back in the Autumn lightweight Handi-
cap tomorrow. II. K Knapp was en-
couraged by her performance. She has
proved a bitter disappointment this
season.
II. L. Sage owns pretty good jump
er In Pebeto. In winning the steeple-
chase he made his record three vic
tories in the last four starts. He
fenced well and while ridden out after
wearing down Archdale he was not abb
solutely straight" at the end. or so 1t
looked from the stand.

Jump in front Of the clubhouse. and
Murphy lay stretched out as II dan
gerously injured, but he escaped, as
so many steeplechase jockeys do.
One perfectly good limousine was
burned TO the tires between the third

curled up black ana omlnously many
thought the stand was on FIRE. but
while some uneasiness was noted. no
body seemed disposed TO get panicky.
Johnny McTaggart is being favored
over Turner by Sam Hildreth as rider
Of the Belmont horses, and in all prob
ability the boy will shortly sign a con-
tract for the rest Of this season and
next Johnny deserves much credit
for fighting his way back into favor.
He was in little demand when the
season opened. but his clever riding
has brought its just reward
For a small stable Foxhsll P. Keene
has won fair share OF races this year.

 FROM GRAND JURY TODAY

whispered that certain officials will be implicated.
 There was comparatively little doing in the courts yesterday, although Judge liar rington P. Hefln took orders in the majority of the cases set in the first division. In the second division Judge William F. Fort passed the entire docket as his time was taken up by the Harry l.. Speaker case.
 In the Speaker case a strong legal con test Is on between c. P. Beddow, who is aiding in the prosecution, and Ard x Snnott for the defense. Although the case went to trial early yesterday morn- ing only three witnesses were neard dur- ing the day as the court was continually called upon to rule on points of law.
 The indictment against Speaker charges embezzement from the w. D. Wood Lum- Der company, q body corporate The att torneys for the defense offered the de- murrer that owing to a defect in the in- corporation papers of the w. D. Wood Lumber company, the indictment against Speaker should be thrown out of court On this point the lawyers fought through out the day and a ruling will be an- nounced this morning by Judge Fort Should Judge Fort rule that a defect did exist in incorporation papers of the w D. Wood Lumber company the indictment against Speaker will likely be quashed.
