E QUEEN | bw Yorkers Delighted by ittle Kentucky Mare. FLEETWOOD'S TRACK RECORD LOWERED Doble Easily Cats Thres Seconds Off the Mark Withoat Pash Mare— Domino and Dobbine Run « b ent at Sheepshead. Nrw You, Aug. 81.—Nancy Hanks' vrial Against the track record was the big feature at Flovtwood park today. Ten thousand people were present to witness the trial. When she strode forth every one present greoted her with voice and hands Doble drove up to the judges' stand, where Yo stopped & moment and then walked the queen of the turf slowly up to the starting post. While he was doing this President McKane rang the gong and as soon as quiet was restored said: ‘Gontlemen: Mr. Walker wishes me to Introduco Nancy Hanks to you, who will try and beat the track record of 2:003(." Baron Salvia of Italy, deputized by his Yovernment to investigate the trotting in shis country, was in the judges' stand. After somo timo of exercising, Nanoy wheeled at the distance pole. Thrusting forth hor nose she began picking up her feet and putting them down agafn with increas- ing apoed. Sho was not on parade any more. She had business, and she went about 1t without any nonsense. Up to the strotch she came with a rush, and at a minute after 4 o'clock she plunged under)the wire in front of the judges. Ioitering on the outer rim of the track at the upper turn, a horse had been waiting to run after Nancy and make her think she must hustle faster or be cvertaken, But she shot past him as if he nad been tied to a post. She sped around the turn and the thousands yelled. Through the quarter she sped, low- ering ner pace but a trifle. Poem In a Sulky. Toward the three-quarters the running horse ran upon herand spurred her on into the strotch. At the beginningof the stretch Doble lay back in his seat and let tho mare out to her full speed. She swept into the straight for home with a pace that was Titanic. Her movement was a poem in great action. The delicate logs shot ' forth and receded like piston bars, and there came to the eves of tho watchers an oc waning sunlight on her steel shoes. On she hurried. She was near enough now so tho patter of her feet could be heard. Then the oye could sco the pinky rim of her eager eyos. Noxt was heard, but only for a momont, the quick exhaustion of her mag- nificent lungs, and then she flew past the stand and under the wire, whilo tho crowd waited silently to hear the result. Doble stopped her at the turn, and then returned to be weighed in with overy oyo fastonod on him. Starter Watkins arose 4o anuounce the time. “Nancy Hanks,” he said, “first quartor, ali¢: half, 1:021; threc-quarters, 1:341) and a mile, gentlemen, in 2:06% A8 s00n s tho last word fell’ from his lids A tremendous roar of apvlause rolied out of the grand stand.

Dominn and Dobblns Try Conclusions and End in a Stand Off, Suerpsueap By, Aug. 31.—A bluish sutumn haze that partly obscured the sun's raysand madean Indian summer day; a track that was perfect and a race, a duel between the greatest 2-year-olds of the season, were tho conditions responsible for a jam of humanity that rivaled, if it did not eclipse, the days of Suburban, Brooklyn handicap and Futurity. The crowd was plentifully bespriukled with braves of the tribe of Tam- mauy who, with wampum in their bolts, had rallied to do the honor of their great chief, whose peerless steed was today to bo glorified or otherwise. Mr. Keene was not looking for matches nor inviting challenges. 1t was not necessary for Domino 1o meet Dobbins in a match to establish his fame,but Mr, Keeno lnew that a match between Domino and Dobbins would mako a great stir, would add celebrity and distinction to the meeting and would gratify many thousauds of people. Moreover, ho had implicit faith in tho ability of 'Domino to retain tho crown of su- premacy. So ho accepted the chatlengo. Mr. Croker, Dobbins' owner, was ropre- sented by tho Dwyers, who made a mateh on the following terms: Dobbins and Domino are matched for #10,- 000, 82,500 forfeit. The race s to_be over the TFuturity course this afternoon and will be run as the fifth on the program by the condition of day and_ track L colt s to carry 118 pounds, the rogular stable weight for 2-yenr- olds. Taral I8 to ride Domwino and Simins to ride Dobbins. Thus far th year Domino started six times. Dobbius has been the post eighteen times and been beaten seven times. His first defeat was in the great American stakes at Brooklyn, when he ran second to Domino, beaten by four lengths His next defeat was in the great Eclipse stakes av Morris park, where Domino beat him easily by two lengths. Thus 1t will be seen tho colts were avparently the best of the 2-year-olds, with the exception ossibly of ‘Senator ' Grady, who caught dobbins off it his form and’ beat him and who has never met Domino, It was after b o'clock when the colts were called for the great race, Both horses looked in superb condition. Very little time Was spent at the post, the horses being sent away at the second ‘attewpt, with Dobbins on the inner rail. Dobbins was the quickest tomove with the full of the flag. At the quarter Domino began to move up. Ho gained steadily and as ho passed the half Domino's black nose showed o fow inches to the fore. but Dobbins would not be out and as they swung into the streteh they were running as one horse. Then the mighty struggle began. Both jockeys sat down and tode with all their skill and the noble animals under them respouded with a will, straining overy nerve Neither could gain an advantaee and they continued us one horse, passing under tho wire iu 1:12 §-5.
