ONEILLS GRIEF FOR W. K. VANDERBILT DEAUVILLE, France, September 27. French track followers have been criticizing the riding of Frank ONeill of St. Louis lately. ONeill, with the Vanderbilt horses, was leading the joekevs of the French turf by a wide margin" the middle of July, having practically double the number of winning mounts of Bellhouse, his closest opponent. "I dont know what has happened to mo since W. K. Vanderbilt died. I ride harder than I ever did iu my life, but I am jinxed. It seems that my luck passed away with W. K. He was more a father to me than a boss. I feel all broken up about it."
