CONDENSED HISTORY OP THE GREAT AMERICAN STAKES + + In respect to value, the Great American Stakes has always been in tho front rank of our fixtures for two-year olds, but it is sadly cut down in that regard this year. It was worth .;.2K to John K. Madden, when Sir Martin won last year, but .!I2." will bo the portion falling to the owner of the winner today. Why this is so is well understood and it is probably only a tensnorary condition. The revival of New York n cing prosperity seems now so well assured that the restoration of sack events to something approximating fori i r values may Ik- |iiitc coulideiitly anticipated. Such fast and famous two year-olds as Bussoll. St. Ileiiaii. Sir Walter. Domino. Jean Berenud, Blue Girl, Broomstick. Burgomaster. Water Pearl and Sir Martin are registered as Great American winners and the record of tho event is as follows: Ceaf. First. Jockeys. Wt. Second. Wt. Third. Wt. Val. Time.
