KING PLAUDIT MAKES GOOD SHOWING Easily Defeats the Speedy Over There in Impressive Style Stake Feature to Albert A. NEW YORK, N. Y.. September 30. Another formidable candidate for the Latonia Championship Stakes was shown at Jamaica today when King Plaudit won the third race from as good a performer as W. R. Coes Over There in a common canter. In his last start King Pluudit refused to leave the barrier, the colt sulking, but today Davies got him away quickly and he soon opened up a commanding lead, which he easily maintained to the end. Over There was in closest pursuit throughout, but could never overtake King Plaudit. Trainer Geo. Odom will doubtless ship the son of Plaudit to Latonia within a few days, with the intention of starting him in the big race for three-year-olds.

Hildreth was shipped to Laurel tonight, that owner having changed his mind regarding leaving part of his extensive stable "jl" Hastings and Silas Veitch ship their stables to Laurel tomorrow, and the W.
