I (By TVIrgtai'li la Tlir Trll.uii? J Snratoga Springs, X. Y., Aug. 2i.? The Finn, winner of the Relmont as well as other rich st.-.kes for I!. C. Hsl lenbeek. captured the Huron Handicap here this sfterBOOU al'er a strotch long battle with Captain E. P. Csaeatt's Trial by Jury, while Schuyler L. Par soni'a 'sharpr-honter was the one to race third. Thin race was marred by two claim? o* fou' after t'r." miming. Loftus. who rods Sharpshooter, ensrged that Daviei on Trial by Jtirv had fouled him at the half-mile ground. Then ..?avies made complr.int that butwell, who rode the A-iniier, had bumped him nil through the stretch run. After an investigation the claims were dismissed and the or? der of the fmish was not disturbed. Ed HefTner aent both Iron Duke and The Finn to the post for Mr. Hallen beck, end the only other itarten were Trial by Jury and Sharp-hooter. Iron lhiki' was m to make pace for his more illustrious itablemate, and did hi? part Bresjciag well, ?uxten rushed him out in the lead, and it wax Trial by Jury thut chased him until making the tun for the ?treteh, where he easily laced by and went into command. As Trial by Jury went to the front and Iron I'uke dropped back The Finn moved up with a rush on the outside, shortly after making ths tur* for home he Wai lapped on the Caisatt colt, and the light WM OU to the tinish. Trial by Jury, on the inaide. bore out so badly thai he carried The Finn beyond the middle of the track. This brought tome bumping, as Butwell tried to hold a straight course, and it was this In? terference, for which Davies himself was to blame, that he mud* the claim of foul against Butwell. As for the claim of LoftU!, thero was no inter? ference that could be seen from the stands^ and the report of the patrol judgei did nol ?nstela ths Loftui ?-'aim. There whs another claim of foul dur? ing the day, when Byrne, who rode Landslide for Foxhall P. Keene. charged that MeCahey. who won with Gifford A. Cochran's. Feminist, hail in t?-rfiri>ii with hits in the run through the stretch. Feminist hnd cros.id Landslide and Byrne changed his -, but at the time Landslide eras beaten and there was no actual bump? ing. On this ground the claim was no* allowed. Winning Witch, intended ns a brood r.iare for the Hui ricana Stud, won the opening six furlong ?lash for John San ford .ver Richard T. Wilson's II" tor Prynne. Hlack Beauty won for (i. J. Long, and then after the tinish Kmil Herz, who wai eeond With his recent purchase, Important, boosted her from to $1,300, but she ?a? protected and bought in. Old Lahore made pace all the way in 'he mile und a furlong and was an easy winner. In thii race Ainalli. from ?h.- Richard T. Wilson stal.li'. seemed sore going to the po?,t, and he was a ?listant trailer all the wav. thouirh many good judges were of the opinion that he should win. Then at the end of the programme Traleo, S fill**" that has disappointed on various occasions, was winner for the Wilson stable. The Huron' Handicap was first run in 1901, when it wai won by The Rhymer. The winners since that time have been Sombrero, Shorthose, Port Hunter, Bedouin, Content, Kennvetto, Sir John Johnson, Choirmaster of Chesterbrooh Countless, Cock o' the Walk and An? dre.'.- Miller'i Roamer. One of the most notable runnings of the stake was in 19M, when Captain Edward B. Cassatt'a Choirmaster of ( hesterbrook was the winner. It was over a track that was ?leep in mud, and the Choirmaster was not t.-rken serious? ly, for he had been well beaten the day before. Be '.*as in the handicap under eighty-seven pountls and. breaking in front, won all the way al S ridiculously long price. Mrs. Cassatt still ha? the racing plates that were worn by this winner, and they are arrrong the most pii/xl of the many trophies at the Chesteibrook Farm. There is an interesting hit of equine romance connected with the pedigree and historj of John Sanf.mi's six-rear old mare Winning Witch, the winner of the first raci on to-day'i card To begin with, thin mare was purchased by w. a. I'ortcr in Kentucky for John Sanford. who wanted her foi s brood mare, the price paid bemz $4,000, and her now owner was particularly pleased with the mare when h" saw hi-r. After coming to Mr. San ford's stable It was discovered that the mare had a fair turn of speed and appeared to be tit for training. She was trained, and her victory to-day, which sh>- "TOR in rather impressive stvle, was the r<? fUlt. ?

Lately he has abandoned this ol?i mashing attack f.ir a rtyle that needs a strong de? fence and he has never Mastered a defence that could meet a strong attack, largely because he ncv?i had to.
