Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 1s-Three of the four favorites in this afternoons opening races of the Columbus Grand Circuit meeting were from the Mur- phy stable. Only the most pronounced one, The Real Lady, was successful. She took the Horse Review F'uturity for two-year-old trotters in straight heats. getting no real opposition from even Emma Mcgowan, that was twice second. Don Macdonald, the Indian apolis driver, had in charge the horses that defeated the other Murphy first choices. Miss Harris M. won the King Stake for pacers. She was a strong second horse to Roan Hal, that was four times second. The first heat was won away from him by Sayde Densmore, fresh from the Great West ern Circuit
 Miss Harry NJ, after finishing fifth in the first heat, stepped away better in the next one and won it In POP 3-4, the fastest time of the race. In this finish both Roan Hal and Sayde Dens- more were close up, as they were at the ends of the next two heats.
 McCloskey, victor in the 2.11 trot, has been racing for three full seasons on the Grand Circuit without being a winner until today. He has been be- hind the money but few times, how ever, and last year at San Francisco won two races. This afternoon he had little more strength than Virginia Barnett and Empress of Russia. In the third heat Pittsburgh was beaten by only a neck.
 Little Frank D.. a recent addition to the Valentine stable, took the 2.15 pace. The field was the largest this year on the Grand Circuit. The first heat went to Queen Hal, a Canadian mare with Little Frank D. finishing twelfth. In each of the next three miles Little Frank D. won with ease.

AUSTR|ANS FLEEING
BEFORE RUSSIANS
Cars Forces Capture koIo-
mea in East GaliCid.

Petrograd, July 1.-The Russians
have captured the town of Kolomea,
in East Galicia, according to the Rus
sian official communication.
The war office earlier announced the
capture of the town of Obertine, south
of the Dniester river, and villages
north and south of that point.
Obertine is fourteen miles north
east of Kolomea. The occupation OF
this town by the Russians marks
further gain in the new drive over
twenty-five-mile front which forced the
Austrians to retire.
The official statement of the war
office follows:
"In the region south of the Dniester
we are pursuing the enemy. The Aus
TRANS, panic-stricken in their fight,
are leaving behind large number of
conveys. Military material and more
prisoners have been brought in.
According to kilograms received
here, the town of Obertine was taken
after fight, as we'll as villages in the
neighborhood north and south.
Northeast of the confluence of the
river Lipa and Styr our detachments
under command of Colonel Grembezky
approached unperceived the settlement
of Covbane and a village of the same

ing put the garrison of Covbane to the
