in the two rich stakes Of the opening day
at the Saratoga course today-the Sara
toga Handicap and the United States

Johnny AcTaggart, won the handicap by
% length and half from Ed. Crump.
Frtar Rock, stable companion Of Strom-
boil. was third, a head behind Ed. Crump.
In this race the great Regret met the
first defeat of her career. Want OF hard
work is the answer. She took the run
ming for more than mile, but then was
forced to give up.
Deer Trap, two-year-old son Of Trap
Rock. earned $3.50 for the Belmont stable
In the United States Hotel Stake. Clever
ly ridden by Haynes. he waited on Hollis
ter and Rickety until the last eighth,
when he flashed to the front Hollister

Having purchased the Cubs old park
in Chicago and the Phillies' grounds in
the Quaker City from the Taft interests,
Charles Webb Murphy evidently feels
that he has a right to discuss the ma
tional game. He is out with a staement
that Judge Lands is correct In his as
sertion that the umpires have too much
power and that, as a result, the game
lacks excitement. Murphy. always found
fault with the umpires. His friend, Hor-
ace FogeL was put out of the National
League for charging tho umpires with
dishonesty. Presidents Johnson and
Tener are handling the umpire problem
admirably and there is no reason for a
change in methods. II the umpires
should be deprived Of some of their pres
ent authority baseball soon would be-
come riot. The public is opposed to
kicking and >rowdyism.
