GL0RIFIER CAPTURES THE CARTER HANDICAP, _ j Roseben Was Poorly Ridden, But On ' Mis Own Courage He Landed I In Second Place. NEW YORK. April 15.?Glorifler. I J. II. McCormick's big chestnut horse, second choice in the betting, won the' $10,000 Carter handicap at Aqueduct j today, beating Roseben a length and ' a half with Don Diego, third. De Mund, the favorite, finished fourth,! with Oxford, also heavily played, in I fifth position. The time was 1:28 1-.". The handicap furnished a really sensational finish, anil it was Rose? ben, a doubtful starter until the last hour before the race, that furnish Oil the excitement. In the first furlong Jockey Bookman on Roseben allowed his mount to he shouldered out of a good position and he quickly dropped hack to eighth place. De Mund went to the front at once closely pressed by Glorifler, Don Diego, Marstor nnil Avaunter. Entering the stretch Rose hen was still in eighth place and it looked as if he could not get through the flying field. The others were strung out. already beaten. Just as the crowd set up the shout "Do Mund?De Mund?" Roseben got through the crush on the outside of the field and out of the dust clouds that almost obscured the horses came Glorifler, two lengths in front of De Mund, now falling hack, rapidly. Ear? ly In his mighty stride Roseben was I fairly running o...- the struggling field. A furlong from home ho was in sixth position, then fifth, fourth and third in such rapid succession that the crowd took up the shout ? Roseben wins." But Glorifier's lead could not he overcome and Roseben' finished second on his own courage, getting little assistance from his jockey.

Poi? nte past two months Manager Grif? fiths has not heard a word from the great spit-ball artist, and he has ttbout given up hope of his reporting lo the Highland .vs. "I could make- mighty good use of Chesbro this year." said Grif. "He is a wonder for four or five innings, and if he came to me I would use him exclusively for finishing games some of the youngslrrs'had started, in which we are ahead in the llfth in? ning, or which we have a chance to Said Wit to Wisdom?
