MEADE NOT COMING TO CHICAGO ARLINGTON HEIGHTS, 111., July 28. Alex Gordon, who brought E. R. Bradleys Bimelech and "Mr. Frenchs" Boy Angler here for tomorrows Arlington Futurity, said late this afternoon that perhaps only one of them, and possibly neither, would start in the big race. The prospects for an "off" track, he said, might cause trainer William Hurley to order the withdrawal of both of them. In view of this condition, Don Meade, who had been engaged for Boy Angler, will not come from New York, and if either of them starts, F. A. Smith will do the riding.
