HAVRE DE GRACE, Md;, September 29. In the best offering of tlie afternoon tho Quincy Stables Carol was winner from E. B. McLeans Comixa in a spirited drive by a narrow margin, while Mrs. H. Dattners Marie Blanche was third. The winner was ridden by S. Bullman, came from behind the fast pace established by Comixa and it was right in the final strides that he dropped his head in front to win going away. The card which was down for decision this afternoon failed to arouse undue enthusiasm among those that journeyed to Havre de Grace and cheaper horses were engaged in the majority of the races. In the two-year-old affair, which was at five-eighths, a field of five faced the barrier. Giaire, which was coupled with Comixa, was withdrawn, also Mark Twain. There was but little delay at the start and Butwell sent the McLean representative to the front and she readily opened up a long lead. Carol raced in second position, while Prince Regent was leading Marie Blanche and Billy Gibson. Rounding the stretch turn Bullman, astride Carol, went to the whip and the son of Ormondale responded in a courageous manner. Comixa, however, held to her task under severe pressure in splendid style, while Marie Blanche was closing an immense gap through the final eighth. In the final strides Comixa tired and Carol caught her to win going away.

The majority of the winners were returned by wide margins, in easy fashion. Favorite players were again in the eclipse, although several of the winners were accorded "support. ROSS R. UPSETS CALCULATIONS.

The winner was ridden by Shelepets and was taken to the front at the start and drew away into a safe lead. Dr. Charles Wells attempted to to keep pace with the leader in the first part, but lost much ground on the turns and tired in the final sixteenth of a mile. Ettahe came with a rush in the final drive and outlasted Hendrie, which closed fast. A fall marked the running of the first race when Soggarth Aroon went down as the field was rounding the far turn. The band of two-year-olds were closely bunched and Allen attempted to go through an opening and got caught in a jam and fell. Primus, which was making his move on the outside, was bothered and Williams took up. The winner turned up in W. J. Salmons Luminist in an easy manner from Valador, while Better Times was third. The winner was ridden by Butwell . and was in close pursuit of the pace established by Pikesville. The lutter began to quit rounding the stretch turn and Luminist went to the front.

QUINCY STABLES CAROL Continued from first page. was a tiring third. Allen was rushed to the track physicians office and beyond a shaking up was all right, but canceled the remainder of his engagements. A bulky field paraded for the running of of the second" race, which was at three-quarters; and P. Heffernans Fleer proved the winner in a driving finish from Whalebone, while the favorite, Tidings, was third.

It was a rather ordinary band that paraded to the post and the winner was accorded extensive support in the wagering. Amaze was the one to establish the early running, with Bengalese racing in second position, while the popular choice, Deckmate, was third. When settled in the stretch Walls called on his mount and the latter responded courageously and wore down Amaze. Waukeag came with a rush that was carrying him fastest of all at the end. C. P.
