He has now won three Taces jn a row, following his bang-up second to Tryster in the Fleetwing Handicap at Yonkers. Up to the Present sprinting has seemed to be In his game, even though in all his re cent starts he has come from behind. Yesterday, because he was making his “first appearance in a mile race, he ‘was more o1 less overlooked. When it came to running he Was under wraps all the way behind Bigheart and Frigate. When the streetch was reached he ran over the top of the sprinters in front of him and finished easily in the fastest run mile of the meeting, 1.363-5. What made the Greentree gelding's performance ali the more impressive was the fact that he toted 122 pounds as if {t was a feather. At the present time Exo- are dus is one of the most improved horses in training. Scandal is in the alr to-day over the showing of Ten Lec in the first race yesterday, This mare one of the most nimblefooted in training, was away from the post trailing and never at any time did she improve her position. Sandy MeNaughton, wno trains her was flubber-gasted as he watched Ten Lee's futile eiemt to race within pounds of her form. An alibi however, was forthcoming later It was said that Sande was put on the fence somewhere around the start “siim" long shot easily after the way. No serious made by the riders in this event to Keep pace with Moore's trick. THey probably ficured he was to drop from Moore put over his casual when Quesada got home lending his opponents all attempts wer exaustion before the stretch . reached When the race over Callahon who rode Bridesman, the favorite made a bluff to close some ground throuch the last eighth of a mile. but his move was badly timed to say the least Sik Tassel winner of the Inst race, showed something like the per- formance she was expected to fu nish when she raced against Ro -elise. Edict hung up her fourth straight in winning the Troy selling stakes, Breaking in front, she led the field a merry chase and Fator had no trouble getting her home in handy fashion, She was entered to be sold for $5,700. Sam Louis bid her up to $8,700, but even then didn't get her, Since the running of the Alabama stakes which was the classic of the meeting for three-year-old fillies, there has been a lot of discussion as to whether-Nedna, the winner of tha race was the b@gt horse in it, With a desire to bring the field which took part in that race together again, the rato. ment has offered a purse of $1,500 for Wednesday, Aug. 30, over the same distance, one mile and a quarter, The race will carry a subscription fee of $500 each, with a forfeit of $10 ach, and the Saratoga Association will add a silver plate of the value cf $500. The entries will close the day previous to the running of the event. With this race, which should attract all of the starters in the Alabama, and the running of the Saratoga Cup and the Hopeful Stakes on the closing day of the meeting, the final days of the session should be full of interest, In the filly event all will carry 115 pounds, and Startle, Prudish, Nedna, Emotion, Many Smiles, Irish Confetti, Prelude and Lady Baltimore should be among the nominations. William A, Shea claimed brides- man after he was beaten in the se- cond race for $4,500. Many Smiles is returning to the form she showed early in the current This is one of the best look- traini and has as mueh speed as any-body's horse. She was a trifle lame at Belmont Park, but from the way she Is golne now this trouble has been dissipated. Many Sn iles was bred in Wyoming at the ranch of her owner William R. Coe, nd her size and quality is proof that thoroughbreds can be bred in that State, She will in all probability be started in the mile and « quarter renewal of the Alabama.

The vietory of Pat O'Hara Wood over Andre H, Gobert, 2—6, 6-8, 6—1, 6—4, in the first match, clinched victory for Australia.

Virtual settlement of the bitymi- nous coal strike and prospects that the anthracite strike will be settled at a conference to be held in Philadelphia to-morrow resulted In a conspicuously strong stock market this morning. A marked feeling of cheerfulness was In evidence in all financial quarters. Gains in the more important shares listed on the New York Stock change ranged from one to more than two points. But it was the breadth of the advancing movement rather than the extent of the advances that at- tracted so much attention. At times there was such a scarcity of stocks in the market, particularly in rallroad shares, that gains of a point were registered between sales, Prominent stocks that showed gains of from 1 1-2 to 2 points were Amer- lean Locomotive, American Woollen, Rock Island, Baldwin Locomotive, Famous Players, Harvester, Norfolk and Western, Reading, Republile Steel and United States Realty. Gains of 2 points or more were registered by Union Pacific, which touched u hew high for the year, Re- tail Stores, Great Northern, Lacka- wanna, North American, Northern Pacifie, American Ice, American Lin- seed, Chesapeake and Ohio, and Cru- cible Steel. Mexican Petroleum nd = Pierce Arrow preferred both scored guins of 4 points. ee ee NOT REALLY WARM, YOU ONLY THINK SO At Least That’s What Weather Man Says. It isn't warm to-day and in addi- tion to the temperature being quite low indeed for August, the humidity is moderate, That may not tally with a wilted collar, sticky linen and a thirst for cooling drinks, but it is so The weather man says {t and that settles it. The mercury registered 76 at noon and the humidity was 74. Asked to explain just how persons got the false impression that th wero warm, the weather man said “It's the change. It seems warm be- cause of the very cool weather we have been having. The temperature wilk rise aad continue to rise, but :t can't be termed warm weather. It is really very moderate for August.” ) there you have it. If there is disposition to quarrel with the or any idea that the facts are wrong the Weather Bureau has a telephone and any citizen has the right to call up and demand his own explanation of prevailing conditions and to know why he is. perspiring wher the weather is really cool and the humidity is moderate.
