Drivers at Columbus Meet

Columbus, Ohio, Sept. 2s.-Fifteen
heats were raced yesterday afternoon
in four regular events and the I'M
finished 2:15 trot race from Wednes-
day, but still it was impossible to
complete the meeting, seventh heat
being necessary to determine the win
ner of the 2:13 trot, which was un-
finished when darkness came.
The judges in their mind were con-
V1nced that the race might have been
ended as victory for Doria Watts
had Driver Lee tried to win, and for
that reason they took charge Of the
marc over night and a different driver
will be behind her to compete in the
seventh heat, which was raced at 1
o'clock this afternoon.
The officials also have a sentence
to hand out on Driver Stout in the
2:15 trot, of which five heats were
raced on Wednesday. Michailowa won
the sixth and deciding heat yesterday
with Stout apparently never attempt
ing to win from Lotto Watts. All bets
made on the race after the fifth heat
were declared off and the sentence on

Two very heavily played favorites in
events that had no scandal attached to
them were badly beaten yesterday af-
ternoon. William, after his loss of the
free-for-an race a week ago, again
was made favorite today. He failed
to finish inside the money, Ben Earl
winning the first heat and Miss Har-
ris M. the last two.
Peter Nash was a big favorite to
capture first money in the Arch City
2:1O pace. purse $4,000. but Ben ALI
was master of the good field and
dashed ahead from wire to wire.
