honors in the juvenile division, and
the track burning Admiral, famed son
of the great Man O. War, added the
Saratoga Cup to his increasing laurels
The 2-year-old Ell Chico, unbeaten

sleek juveniles in the Hopeful to add
$40 $50 to his earnings and become

The shouts of the crowd of 10000
spectators had scarcely subsided be-
fore the Admiral, little black runner
whose owner, Samuel d. Riddle, sfIec-
tionately calls the ''Runt," took the

Esposa, the William Ziegler mare
that ran second to the Admiral in
three other races here this season,
was a good second again 10 lengths
In front Of William Woodward'S Ana

stables, redoubled its nightly guard
around the barns, in an effort to keep
possible tamperers away from them.
Earlier in the day, James Manning,
33. Of Jamaica, Long Island. was con-
victed in City Court Of being "asso-
ciated with vile and vicious persons
for the purpose Of gambling on crooked
and fixed races"

SEABOARD TO BUY
NEW LOCOMOTIVES
Nine Diesel Electric Engines
To Go Into Service of
That System

Nine huge Diesel electric loconao-
tives are to be purchased by the Sea-
board Air Line Railroad and placed
into service on the main line wher
completed and delivered, according to
information from Washington
The Reconstruction Finance Corpor-
alton has approved loan of $4,000, 002
to the Seaboard for the purchase of
these new electric locomotives, the
figure representing go percent of their
cost, according to announcement by
Jesse Jones, chairman of the RIG.
The locomotives, each of 1900 horse
power, are to be naadeae.-by General
Motors, it was stated.
The Seaboard hasEpioneered in the
South in adoption of new and large
type locomotives, and ait the present
time has in service on it's main line
through here ten of the huge twelve
driver double-drive locomotives, lar
gest type engines ever used in the
South, except in certain mountain
areas. These are in addition to the
other heavy-duty locomotives that
have for years been in operation by
the road.
Although the Seaboard has been in
receivership for several years, its
equipment is being kept modernized
as far as possible, and the service it
offers to the public is abreast of that
given by any company in the Sec
ton. It maintains a passenger SER
vice between New York and Florida
that is considered unexcelled by any
transportation company.
