It was the fastest h ever trotted, lowering the record of 3-4 made at Toledo last year by seranza. Royal Mac was no match for his ri- val, tiring badly the last 100 feet of the race. Ante Guy, making her first start of vear, won the 2:04 trot in straight from Binland, driven by Geer | in the absence of ik Hendr who is still suffering from injuries v ceived at Toledo. Mignola handily won the 2:08 trof, the Southern Hotel stake, purse $3.- 000. He trotted around his field | whenever he pleased. Roy Grafton, a heavy favorite, took the 2:08 pac without a ripple. In the 2:13 pace | Lady Wreath and Jack Keith were the real contenders, the latter finally win- ning after a hard five-heat struggle.

New (York, July 31.—Carl Mays, the Boston Red Sox pitcher who recently jumped over the traces and took French leave of the Boston club, be- came the property of the Yankees yes- terday. He may be seen in action nst the White Sox Col. Ruppert, Col. Huston and Har- ce of the Boston club closed the deal yesterda, nd the Yan furned over Pitchers Allen Russell, Bob McGraw and another player to be delivered later. The Yanks also threw in a big money honus. Owner Comiskey of the Chicago White Sox recently aftered $30,000 for Mays, but the offer was turned down, as M Barrow wanted to get some pitchers rather than money N is the only pitcher in the major leagues who throws the ball in the old | fashioned underhand style, and he is unusually effective. Recently he threw a ball at a spectator wha had been jeering him, and President Johnson of the Ame n league fined him $100. Mays refused to play and left the team. The Boston players threatened to go on strike if Mays was traded to another club, but they have probably coaled off by this time. Mays has not been doing especially good work with the Red Sox this se son. He has won 5 and lost 11 In 1918 he won 21 and los won 22 and lost 9 in 1917, 1916 he won 17 and lost 13 COLTS BREAK RECORDS. | Pittman Drives Two Winners to Fine | appeared before | Victorics on Monroe ack.

New York, July 31.—More rough riding, such as has characterized the racing in the closing days of 2he summer meeting at Empire Citp, crop- ped out again yesterday at the Yon- kers course and brought down the wrath of the stewards on the offend- ing riders. Jockeys ickson and Pickens were the ones to feel the restraining hand of authority this time. Both were set down for fhe balance of the meeting, which is a | decidedly light sentence, since it means that they will be on the ground but one day. Erickson was punished for his ride on Bread Line in the first race, while Pickens was suspended for the tactics he used in | the thira race, in which he had the , | mount on Dendera MOHICANS HAV The local Mohican Market company baseball team, will play the fast Mo- hican Market company team of | Bridgeport at the Pioneer diamond next Sunday morning. The locals ex- pect to have Sullivan, a speedy third baseman in the lineup and Renehan will in all probability do the cateh- ing. Tom White has been assign8f to the task of cheer leader, and M Campbell is down for vocal selections between the innings.
