Chinns Big Importation Arrives. Louisville, Ky.. October 2. J. F. Newmans fleet and sturdy filly. 1an Zareta, scored a lucky victory at Douglas Park today in the six furlong handicap, in her llrst essav since coming here from Canada, when she outstayed Leo Skoluy and Leo-chnrcs in a stirring iinisli. Her success was materially aided by the snug ride that jockey Loftus gave her. Leochares was probably best at the weights, but he was forced to go wide on account of his outside post position, and the ground he lost thereby was considerably more than the margin bo was beaten. Favorites were in total eclipse during the afternoon, but the. "smart set" fared well, for Pan Maid, Oakland, Col. Marehmont and Luther came in for their attention and made good commahdingly. Another big crowd witnessed the sport, and the betting was on a par with that of former days. It. L. Baker is negotiating with John W.j Schorr for the purchase of hd Crump. Mr. Baker stated this afternoon that he had oiiercd 2,500 Ifor the colt, but that Mr. Schorr wants 5,000 for him. After Luthers victory in the closing dash he was bid up from an entered price of 400 to 905 and retained. Miss Fielder and Pan Maid, the winning two-horse combination, yielded 5.35. The lield backers won the three-horse combination and each received 95. Phil T.
