Blind Pacer`s Race To Be Investigated Hal Raven's Poor Performance and Wit h^ drawal of The Harvester 'Disappoint merits' [Special Dispatch to The Call] KALAMAZOO, Mich., Aug. 2.— The Kalamazoo trotting m'ccting was brilliantly inaugurated -with a card of four 'events, the most notable of which; from a racing standpoint was the 2:11 trot, which required five l?eats for a decision. ' The other races were well contested, although no particularly fast time was made, the track being rather slow from an early morning shower. The disappointments of ,today were the withdrawal of The Harvester from the 2:08 trot on account of the attack of colic sustained by the famous stallion yesterday morning, and the radical form reversal* of the blind pacer Hal Raven. She won;a : sparkling race at Detroit, her heats being the fastest of the year for a pacer, one of them better, , than 2:o4, \u25a0\u25a0.while today she was beaten a trio of times, the fastest of which was .2 :oßJ4, -and 'in the opening heat she did not even finish second.** 1 The judges promptly declared off all bets on the heat, which act defined their opinion of the performance. After that Hal Raven ' came . second, but she evidently had: no speed. In the early, betting the mare^"was a top heavy favorite over the field. The judges were not at all _ satisfied that they had done all the race justified, but at the moment they were unable *to secure facts for any further action. Snow,, driver of Hal Raven, was called into the stand after the race, and the understanding is that a rigid investigation of the whole affair" is to be made. - - The 2:11 trot was believed to be a good thing for Innerguard, a .big brown gelding in , the Murphy stable, and before the start he was well played at $25 to $15 for the field. But \u25a0when the word was given it x did not take long to demonstrate that Inner guard had been classed rather too high or else the track did not suit him. as in none of the" five heats trotted was he a serious contender. The 2:08 trot, despite the absence of The Harvester, proved an exceedingly good contest of four heats between Lady Jones and Carlo Kin. To make up for being, shut-out with Bracegirdle, Dick McMahon won the 2:20 pace with Mary X, but the mare was not very good in' the third heat, making two breaks.
