CRETE, 111., June 16.— The stable of A. C. Ernst of Cleveland, which furnished the winner of yesterdays feature in Al au Feu, won another race when Alup accounted for the Berwyn Purse, one of the best races on todays card at Lincoln Fields, through the disqualification of Joe Binstocks Isolene. Isolene went over on Alup and also Frozen i ! Mask sharply in the stretch and after jockey Warren Yarberry, who rode the Ernst four-1 I year-old, lodged a claim of foul, the stewards : ordered Isolenes number taken down.

The I winners time for the six furlongs, made on i a fast track, was 1:15%. i A good-sized crowd turned out for the • days sport. The weather was warm, but a l sharp wind swept the course all afternoon. - The wind came from the south and as a t result horses ran squarely into it in the run i through the stretch. But for this the days ! races might have been run in faster time, , for in all cases the horses registered high i speed in the early furlongs. THIRD STRAIGHT. Jockey Yarberry hung up his third saddle ! success of the day, by piloting Ogallah across 1 the line of finish in front in the La Salle ■ Hotel Claiming Purse, a test of five furlongs, • for two-year-olds.

Valdina Babe raced to the 1 . place, a length behind the winner, and a 1 length and a quarter before Little Ruler, the favorite, which had to be content with third 1 [ money. Ogallah scored his maiden victory in his ! last start at Churchill Downs and was making his first start of the Chicago season. The Woolford colt, a 6 to 1 chance in the ! betting, covered the five furlongs in 1:02 It.

It was Karl Mayers Million Bucks and he scored | • In one-sided fashion, leading home the runner-up " Wowo by five lengths. Velvet Mask : ; was third and Broadkill fourth, and then 1 j came the pronounced favorite, Charmed One. j i | Million Bucks, racing to his first victory of ■ ; the year, took the lead soon after the start, j opened a big lead on his rivals after reaching ■ the turn and was never in danger there-after, ■ | although Yarberry rode him out to the end. The winner paid 4.80 for . YARBERRY UNPLACED. | The winning streak of Yarberry was . ! [ brought to an end with the running of the | six furlongs second race, in which his mount, Bobbin, went unplaced. Victory here went to Roy Holloways Goshen, ridden by [J j Otto Grohs. Night Bandit was second, Ago- taras third, and El Jucz fourth. Goshen, a I I sharp factor from the beginning, was in i close quarters and had to be eased back on i i the turn but when brought out for the run i through the stretch rallied and was up near ! the end to score by a little more than a j length. i Another popular choice rewarded the judg-ment -1 of her backers when Dave Shaws 3 ! Chicharra turned back eight other sprinters Over the six furlongs of the third event. . Viragin looked like a winner here when she : took the lead from Euneva on the stretch j . turn and increased her advantage approaching -1 the final eighth but she could not stall ■ off the Shaw filly and had to be content [ with second money. Mr. Ambassador accounted for third money, with Euneva winding up fourth. The colors of Louis B. Mayer, the movie i magnate, were seen in front for the first t I | time this meeting when San-Monica graduated - j from maiden juvenile ranks by taking ? j I the fourth race, a fiv;e furlongs dash, for ■ two-year-old non-winners.
