KEENE HAS GOOD FILLY.
fable's Futurity Hope Wins Race
After Wretched Start.
IBy Teleprarh to The Tribune 1
Saratoga. X. V.. Aug. 3.— For a programme that
promised little outside of the ordinary routine of
ra-Jne. there were enough Incidents at the local
course this afternoon to make the day a memorable
one. To the upstate spectator the. Mont important
happening was the complete breakdown of John
Banford's Mohawk 11. which occurred in the fourth
rstrc. and for New York visitors the greatest in
terest attached to the brilliant and successful first
appearance of James R. Keeneß Maskette. a two
year-old filly, with which, it if understood, the
vice-chairman of the Jockey Club hopes to win
the classic Futurity at Sheepshead Fay before the
month ip out.
The breakdown of Mohawk II might properly be
def=crlb«d as the climax of an infirmity, rather
than us an nccident. Three j^ar? ago. as a two
year-old. th« handsome son of Rockton and I^a
Tosca proved himself the begt of his age by win
ning the Saratoga Special and other rich events at
the local course, but in preparation for the Fu
turity he went lame. Ever since that time his
infrequent appearances in public have been made
possible only by careful, patient preparation, and
there was always the fear that the leg under sus
picion would give way.
This was the case yesterday, when, after setting
a hot pace for five furlongs, a small bone in the
pastern of the near foreleg snapped. The field
was just rounding into the stretch at the time, and
Miller pulled up" as quickly as possible. To save
himself pain the horse swerved almost broadside
to his opponents, interfering with one or two of
the trailer?. He was quickly led from the track,
and it is a virtual certainty that he will never
again be seen under colors.
The race was won by Dandelion, whose languid
effort in the Saratoga Handicap on the opening
day caused criticism. To-day, as a well backed
favorite he breezed through the stretch, winning
easily from Far West and Dorante. respectively
second and third choices. rurslane. with which
the Canadian contingent tried to make a killing,
backing him from 15 to 10 to I was one of those
Interfered with during the race.
Maskette made her appearance in a condition
event at five and a half furlongs for fillies and
geldings. It was so well known that the stable
regarded her highly that the best odds offered were
2 to ©. an.l she closed at 1 to 4 in a field of eight
It was her flrst start, and. probably because of
greenness, she was compelled to run a race that
stamped her a phenomenon.
As the barrier flashed Maskette threw her head
into the air. and. except for Broadalbin. which
was practically left, at ihe post, she was off last.
A Quarter of a mile after the start she was ten or
twelve lengths behind John Sanford's I>ouise Bell,
the leader. Approaching the far turn, Maskette
began a run that was simply amazing In two
hundred yards she had closed into second place
behind the Banford ally, with John E. Maddens
Miss Kearney, the other contender. Notter took
no chances through the stretch, using the whip
vigorously on Maskette all the way home, and she
won by about a length from Miss Kearney. The
time 1-05 3-5. was the fastest of the meeting, de
spite the fact that the track is extremely slow.
Some horsemen were inclined to believe that Mask
ette had run the quarter after the first furlong in
very close to twenty-two seconds. It is said that
wagers have been made that Maskette will not
meet defeat as a two-year-old.
The longest priced winner of the meeting de
veloped in the opening event of the afternoon,
when Refined, quoted at 50 to 1. with -few support
ers scratched home In front of the third choice.
Sugar Pine Please, the public choice. was
bumped Just as the barrier rose, and Sweet fell off.
H« was not injured. Refined was Mr. Weber's
third winner at the meeting, one of the others,
Edwin U. being at 30 to 1.
The village was alive with rumors during the
day about the probable closing of the clubs: a
possible Investigation of conditions at the track by
emissaries of the Governor, and a conference re
garding the transfer of the Empire City meeting
to this place. In no case could confirmation be
obtained, although II is regarded as probable that
the Governor will take steps shortly to acquaint
himself with the manner in which the meeting is
being conducted.

time made for a full mile was that of the Knox

The hoodoo that has hovered over the meet
from the beginning was seen to-day in a painful
accident to Kichar.l Sellers, while in a Pennsyl
vania car driven by Richard William?. Near the
starting point at Anglesea the clutch of the brake
beam caught and refused to work, which gave the
driver the choice of running his car into the ocan
or making ;i quick turn.
Taking chances on the latter course, Williams
brought liis car around sharply, which caused it
to turn a double somersault. Williams received
only !• few bruises, but Sellers had his right
shoulder badly dislocated and bis right side and
hip badly bruised 1 .

Oh. w»ll! Cincinnati can keep Spade, and wel
come. He's a good pitcher, and showed it yester
day, hut he wasn't good enough to stop th« Giants,
and they had no more trouble in beating Cincin
nati by ■ score of < to 0 than they had In the farce
comedy staged last week, with the Cardinals play
ing opposite to McGraw's men. Spade, as will be
remembered, was a Giant for a little while, once,
but there wan a hitch, and McGraw got Welmer
as a consolation prize. Only he didn't, which
brings up the eternal question. "Where 9 "Wel
mer?" And that question Is a little too sug
gestive of "How old Is Ann?" for such a hot day.
So It will be dropped.
Spade went in yesterday to dhow th« New York
f»ns what they had nearly won. and to make th«
populace wonder, as does that of Cincinnati, why
Ganrel ever asked for waivers on a pitcher who.
0-4 any one with half an eye could see. was destined
to make th« mrmories of Rusi« and Mathewson.
Chesbrp and \Vndd«ll fade forever. But the fates
were against Spade .ard his knell sounded as soon
as ever the first Inning had passed. The Giants
may run back and forth on the ha?"* against St.
T.oniß. but when it comes to 1-tttnz a man Just out
of a minor league try to play horse with th«m It
Is another story.
Ppnde had no on*, but himself to blam* In that
first Inning, unless it wap Mlk<» Donlin. and any
pitcher ought to tak« out an insurance policy with
T,lovds against Mike's making a hit these days.
He. looked longingly at Tenney when that youthful
jepter faced him and carefully. »yen elaborately,
tossed four balls very wide of the plate. But that
was a trifle. Doyle thought the walking to first
base looked pretty good. and. sur« enough. It was.
Tenner and Doyle are bad men to have on th«
bases wh»n none are out. and Mr. Spade was
plainly worried. Fred and Larry saw that h« wan.
and Tenney was en upset by the humor of th«
situation after two strikes had been called on
Roger Bresnahan that Spade at last saw the joke.
I and filled the bases with a third free pass before
he recovered. Then came M. Donlin. and he waited
for no wide ones. Not he. Somewhere In Massa
chusetts one Wagner, whose home Is In Plttsburg.
was presumably doing things to his batting aver
age, and Mike simply picked out a suitable ball
and slammed it to centre field. Tenney and Doyle,
the jokers, stopped laughing long enough to
scamper home, and Bresnahan stopped on second.
Devlin got the fourth base on balls of the inning.
and he and Huggins became so tangled when the
Red tried to tag him on McCormtck/s grounder
that a third run was scored.
There was good solid hitting In the sixth inning
to account for three more <Jiant runs. Seymour
began with a single, and Devlin craftily singled
over Loberfa dead when the fielder came tn for a
bunt, McCormick had luck with his hit. which
rolled away for a »hr»*-bairger. letting- Seymour
and Devlin score. McCorml -k scored himself on
fianzels poor throw to the plate, after the visiting
manager had made a fine stop of "Wlltse's hard
drive toward first base.
Jack Barry, one of the few men on th» St. Louts
nine who made any sort of an Impression here,
was in a New York uniform yesterday. McGraw
is said to have paid $4,600 for him. Barry Is a more
experienced outfielder than McCormlck. and. may
succeed to Shannon's old place. Ha is a good
hitter, and should prove a useful man.
The score follows; -

AT. LOUIS STILL LOSING.
Brooklyn Gets Habit and Trip
Across Bridge Does No Good, i
St. Ix>uis went across the bridge yesterday, glad
to gel away from Manhattan, but found the Su
perbas disposed to welcome any team after the
Pirates' onslaught. As a result they lost their
seventh straight game by a score of 2 to 0.
The Trolley Dodgers played like real champions
all the way, and Mclntyre. who was In the box for
them, pitched one of the best games of his career,
holding the visitors down to one lone hit. This
was made by Reilly. While the Superba." made
eleven hits off Sallee. they were able to bunch them
only in one inning, the sixth, when they got two
men over the plate, quite enough, as it turned out.
to give them the. gam*.
The fielding of the visitors was snappy, especially
the work of Konptchy, who made a fine jumping
catch of Mclntyre's hot liner in the sixth inning.
Burch started the good work for the Superbas An
the sixth Inning when he pent out ■ safe- bunt and
advanced on Hummell's single. Burch got '" third
base on T.umley's fly. while Hummel! stole eseOßvl
Then Jordan set the crowd wild with delight by
pending the ball Railing to the right field fence for
a two-bagger, on which Burch and Hummell talaed.
