SEATTLE, Aug. 26.—With three ses in the third inning to- kenship got 2 home run to deep In this hr.m‘ Seattle piled up seven hits and nine runs. Van Haltren and Frisk ea:'h got two hits. Walter Hall was in the box for the Loo Loos, but his former effectiveness deserted him and he was easy throughout the game, Seattie gather- | ing in sixteen hits, including two two- baggers and a triple. Jud Smith and Toman played sen- | sational ball. Seattie’s flelding was not astonishingly brilliant, but it was steedy and free from errors. Shields pitched a fi game and fielded his position after the order of Jay Hughes. The score: Seattio— Los Angeles— B R HPA EB.

That the Futurity will be a contest between millionaires and their horses is apparent at a glance at the names of | the owners of those which are buile- | tined to start for the $35,000 race to- | morrow. Only a millionaire can afford | to refuse $100,000 for a two-year-old, as | James R. Keene has done, and if Sy- ! sonby, the colt which was not for sale at the price mentioned, is worth the | sum, surely Hanya, which has already ?won more than may win $50,000 more to-day, as much as Sysonby. The trio of fillies which will race in| the interest of Herman B. Duryea are the product of stallions and mares for which the late William C. Whitn-?)‘ paid a fortune, and that the produect of | Hamburg and Meddler should race up | to the reputation of their progenitors | is only to be expected. i Tradition may not win to-day, but it i Is declared by turfmen that no filly of es brighter promise of bril- next year. She is owned lionaire James B. Hag- i!m and races in the name and colors of Sydney Paget for business reasons. | August Belmont owns Woodsaw, which ‘also races in the name and colors | of Paget, but is an assured thing | that this colt will bear his owner's 4 | colors next season. .| Glorifier also is owned by one of the | turf’'s most wealthy patrons, Louis V. Bell. | It is a fact, however, that the great | race to be run has, in the minds of | really settled down to a | contest between horses owned or raced by two, or, at the most, three of fmen of the country. indeed, in these days does one see a “poor man’s” coit looming up as a Futurity possibility. - Long before the date of the race the colt would have been sold at a fancy figure too high for any poor man gifted with good sense to refuse. With the fleld including Sysonby, winner of the Brighton Junior and the | Saratoga Special; Tanya, which has already captured the rich National Stallion and Hopeful stakes, and Tra- dition, also a stake winner, horsemen | concede that it will be one of the fast- |est and greatest races ever run for | Sheepshead Bay's historic event. The Keene entry, Sysonby and Wild Mint, undoubtedly will be strong public choices in the betting. Following are the weights, jockeys, owners and odds: | Horse. Weight. Jockey. Owner.
