BODY OF SUNNY MAN
ALREADY DESTROYED

BALTIMORE, Nd, May 5-An in
quiry begun by insurance investi-
gators to determine the cause OF the
death at Pimlico last Saturday of the
race horse Sunny Man, owned by
w. S. Kilmer, was checked today,
when it was found that the. entire
body of the colt was destroyed in a
local abattoir Monday.
The president of the firm which re-
ceived Sunny Mans body explained
that city health ordinance pro
vides that all animals received at the
plant be destroyed as soon as pos
sible. 1t is customary, he said, for
owners of race horses to place a de-
tainer asking that the body be held
for a time when an investigation or
post mortem examination is desired
No detainer was sent with the body
of Sunny Man, he said.
DR.. II. I. Mccarthy, veterinarian of
the Maryland Jockey Club, said he
had not ordered the horses body re
moved.
DIR. Mccarthy said he diagnosed the
colts illness as caused by d Lyp-
motto medicine, adding that the stable
boy admitted having administered a
sedative prescribed by DR.. Robert Nc
Gully of New York
