Kelly appeared to have been rolled upon and crushed by the horse and there was a sensation in the grandstand until the boy arose to his feet and walked away. Beyond a severe shaking up he was not hurt. It was decidedly a day for long shots, five favorites being bowled over. In the first race Rough and Tumble, the odds- on favorite, was beaten by five lengths by Exclamation, which opened at 10 to 1 in the betting, advanced to 20 and was then packed down to 15 at post time. Creolin again disappointed a large con- tingent of admirers in the steeplechase. He was off well, then seemed to lose ground at every jump and ran his race in the same dull and half-hearted manner that characterized his last appearance. Jim Bozeman maintained a safe lead all the way and was never challenged. The bookies cleaned up a raft of money in the sixth race on The Lady Rohesia, which was played from the time the chalk was first posted until post time. Her price was pounded down from 7 to 1 to 6 to 5. The race was won by Sid Silver, the favorite finishing outside the money. Summary: clamation (15 to 1.

SCHORR ANNOUNCES RETIREMENT FROM THE TURF In Moment of Depression He Sells His Stable Nine Horses for $9000 to Smathers. ST. LOUIS, May 23.—Although entered in the name of John W. Schorr, all his horses at the Fair Grounds raced in the colors of E. E. Smathers to-day, a re- mark made by Schorr on the clubhouse lawn resulting in the purchase of his entire stable by Sam Hildreth for $9000. Much disgusted over the fact that he lost two heavy bets yesterday on Lauretta and Lacy Crawford, the Memphis brewer stated to-day he would be glad to sell his stable of nine horses for a total of $9000. Sam Hildreth instantly closed the offer. The lot includes Jack Leory, a Derby candidate, George Leiper and the brown colt Lieber, which was second in the third race this afternoon. Immediately after thé sale Schorr be- came depressed and seemed to regret his action. He announced that he was going back to Memphis and that he would positively retire from the turf.
