EXTERMINATOR TO BE BUSY W. S. Kilmers Plans for His McGee Gelding to First Race at Havre de Grace. Willis Sliarpe Kilmer is authority for the statement that his great McGee gelding Exterminator, which, after winning two big stakes at Windsor the Windsor Jockey Club Handicap and the Hendrie Memorial Cui traveled to Saratoga and won for r the seeoud year in succession the famous Saratoga Cup, would be immediately shipped to Havre de Grace to bo prepared for engagements in the ,000 Harford County Handicap and the 0,000 Havre de Grace Handicap, races of one mile and a sixteenth and one mile and an eighth that willt bo features of the September meeting of the Harford Agricultural and Breeders Association. Exterminator was on the market for some "time and Mr. Kilmer turned down offers of 0,000 and 5,000 for him in spite of the fact that he is a gelding. But the Jtiughainton sportsman has decided now that Exterminator shall not be sold. He will race at Havre 2n Grace. Laurel Park and Piinlico, also fill several engagements on the Now York and Kentucky tracks before going into winter quarters at Rcmlik Hall farm in Middlesex County, Virginia. Next year, while Mr. Kilmer is touring the world on his private yacht. Exterminator will lie racing over the Maryland, Kentucky, New York and Canadian circuits. Exterminator is no stranger to patrons of Havre le Grace racing. He was at the Harford County track last year and he and Cudgel had a battle xoval in the Havre de Grace Handicap. He wen the Pimlico Autumn Handicap of IMS, which was the year of his Kentucky Derby victory. It is possible Hint Exterminator may go up from Havre le Grace to Belmont Park on September 15, to jUurt in the ,000 Autumn Gold Cup, a handicap at two miles for horses three years old and over.
