Y,, Aug. 4—R, F, Carman’s Lady Bar- bary, an added starter, won the his- toric Spinaway Stakes here this af- ternoon from the favorite, Kaskaskia, with R. T. Wilson's Montrosa; the best played filly in the race, third. It wan the fastest five and one-half furlongs of the meeting, being run in 1,06 fiat. Montrosa broke on her toes and went out to make the pace. Before a quarter had been run Kaskaskia Joined her and the two ran japped on ench other to the atretch, Royal ‘Martyr was third, Jumt before the turn for home wae made Lady Bar- bary, moved up to the leaders, As Montrose turned into the stretch on the rail Kaskaskia went wide and took Lady Barbary out with her. When they were straightened, how- ever, Lady Barbary came away cour- ageously and went on to win by two lengths. Montrosa, weakening badly from her early efforts, was a bad third, five lengths behind Kaskaskia, Whitne: ahaa was running strong at nf end. FIRST RACE. J. N. Camden's Luke, the best colt in the West, was beaten in his Bust- ern debut In the opening event. He finished third to Charter Maid and Razzano. He was giving away 1 lot of weight and this told on him in the stretch. Luke broke from the bar- rier first, but he didn't open a gap. Instead Scorpii went right with him, only to be killed off going to tne stretch, Ragzano and Charter Maid ran be- hind in the order named. When Scorpil retired Razzano moved up to Luke and McTaggart brought Chai ter Maid around the home turn very wide. When straightened Charter Maid began closing, and well inside the final eighth caught both Luke and Flargano and breezed past them, to win by two lengths. Luke weakened right at the end and Rassano beat him @ neck for the place. COND RACE. Tom Healy had Montresor specially prepared for the and he won all the way. At the end he was two lengths in front of the lght- weighted =Ambro: with Monocacy third, three lengths back. Reybourn tried to follow Montresor but gave way to Ambrose on the back stretch, The latter threatened the winner as they neared the turn, and again when they were well into the stretch, but Buxton shook up the Wilson gelding and thereafter he was never in trouble, Ambrose held on urprisingly well. Monocacy, who had been back in the bunch for the firat six furlongs, moved up strong coming to the stretch, but that was 4s far as he could get. FOURTH RACE. Punch Bowl took the track at the start of the Handicap, fourth on th» card, and was never caught. He was six lengths in front of Whitney's Forum passing the judges. Uncle Jimmy was third, six lengths in back Punch Bowl ran the distance in 1.1) Mat, creating @ new track record for the distance. Besom made the old record of 1118-5 in 1910, Hocnir, the favorita, showed flash of speed, breaking from the outside, but finished a bad fifth Holiday was in a contending position for tho first quarter of a mile, but was then knocked back a doxea lengths, only to come again in the stretch, Right at the end Marco had him pinched off, otherwise he might have been cloner up.
