RESULTS AT LAKESIDE. Colonel Hamilton was absont from Lakeside Tuesday having gone home to Kentucky to look after political affairs. The racing, however, went along in good style with occasion for some sharp action in the judges stand. Secretary Martin Nathansou assisted by Tom Chivington presided over the racing. As the Harry Nutter race had rather a bad look they wastea no time in taking action, and the result is that jockey McQuade, who rode Harry Nutter, and hia employer, Hugh McUarren, have bean suspended ponding further investigation, and in the meantime the further entry of Harry "Nutter will be refuse 1. Mr. A. G. Clark, who owns Harry Nutter, is not suspected of any wrong doings and is in no way mixed up with the judges decision. Neither i3 flask" Blum, who tra ins for Clark . McQuades ride, the judges said, was a suspicious looking one, and if, on further investigation, it comas out that the boy was not riding "to win and was following McCarrens instructions, both will be punished to the fullest extent of Turf Congress laws. Of course all parties concerned will be given a chance to clear themselves, and may succeed in doing so. The Harry Nutter rao was fifth on the program and the erratic bou of Harry OFallon Tena N. was a strong favorite at about 6 to 5. He ran more like a 100 to 1 chance than a favorite, and after baing run into the fence down the oackstretch, eventually finished fifth and a long way back. Prince Blaze3, after a long let--up and at a long price, won the race by a narrow margin from Volandies. The finish between thiB pair was an extremely close one, but the judges made uo mistake when they huag out number "4." Some of the weaker minded ones in the crowd thought they did, but they were greatly in the minority and the slight noise they made was not lasting. Everything taken into consideration the racing was as good as that which has marked any other day during the meeting. The finishes as a rule were close and starter Dwyer was in excellent form, sending the fields away quickly and as a rule well bunched. It was a pleasant afternoon and the attendance was above the average. Ennomia, at the tempting price of 8 to 1, scored in a sensational way in the third race and this seemed to put the crowd into the best of humor. E. Scherrer rode Ennomia and during the early stages of the journey it did not aeem that the filly had a chance to finish anywhere but last. She took a notion to run, however, on the far turn and the way she moved toward the front was inspiring to witness, atd when straightened away for home she was second to Catastrophe, but below the eighth post she passed him and eventually won easily. The first race went to Miss Fee, the 8 to 5 favorite, who was ridden to perfection by Mitchell. Then jockey Newcom came out of his trance, and on Fantasy came home with the long end of the purse in the Becond event. Tom Hayes took the three-quarters of a mile two-year-old race with Bed Cros3 II., who was an odde-on choice at 3 to 5. Then came the Harry Nutter race, and later the sport was brought to a close by Canace driving and staggering homo about a half length in front of Brulare. "Bud" May with his entire string of horses and jockey Winkfield left last night for Newport. It was Mr. Mays first intention to ship home but at the last minute his father telegraphed him to ship to Newport. Mr. Robinson, owner of Walkoashaw, was at the track and said the story circulated about his winning a fortune on his horse Monday was without foundation. There will be a big sale of horses in training at Lakeside Saturday,
