9 MARGARET NADI DISQUALIFIED NEW ORLEANS, La., Dec. 14. The first disqualification of the Louisiana Jockey Club meeting was ordered with the running of the seventh race Tuesday afternoon, when Margaret Nadi was placed last by the stewards after finishing in first place. Apprentice P. McLean, who was astride the bay filly, drew a suspension of twenty days for rough riding. In addition to the suspension and the disqualification, Hermosillo, the favorite, was caught in close quarters at the first turn and jockey Bob Finnerty was unseated during the running of this race. Finnerty walked to the jockey quarters, the extent of his injuries being only a shaking up.
