GREAT DAYS AT OAKS
NEW YORK, Sept 1. Down a lane of
gray-brown earth, which had all the"
softness of velvet beneath the tread of
the flying thoroughbred hoofs, 15 fleet 2-year-olds
raced madly today to a goal
three-quarters o a mile away, where lay
a. purse of close to J50.000. It was the
13th running of the Futurity at Sheeps
head Bay, and as a roar from nearly
40,000 throats rent the air Electioneer, a
well-named colt, by Voter-Quesal, flashed
under tne wire; a winner by three-quarters
of a length, .another champion had
been proclaimed, and William Lakeland,
a horseman bjf profession, who trains his
bread-winners, himself and sleeps In the
barn when necessary, had snatched the
richest prize of the year from half a
, score of millionaires.
At the winner's quarters was Pope
Joan, the fastest filly of the year, and
the best of the trio which James R.
Keene sent to the post to be played as
favorite a the short price of of 8 to 5.
Demund. the Ooldflnch colt for which
Paul J. Rainey. paid $45,000 early in the
season, was third, beaten for second hon
ors by the shortest of heads. He ran a
creditable race. Next came Yankee Gun,
an added sta.ter: Peter Pan. to which
the frantic players of the- Keene stable
had pinned their faith; Yankee Girl,
owned by C. R. Kllison; Ballot, added
by Mr. Keene to take the place of Zam
: bezi; Convilie, one of the most widely
tipped 'horses In the race; Horace E., the
famous Western colt bought by Roy
Ralnoy for JL'5.000, with the Futurity in
.view; Don Enrique, the Belmont repre
sentative; Kentmky Beau, backed from
10 to 1 down to 12 to 1; Old Honesty, the
only 100-to-l shot in the stake; Altuda
Oran. played by a few bceause Miller had
the mount, and last of all Purslane,
which opened at 50 to 1 and stayed
there.
Race AVon-Without Fault.
It was one of the best and most truly
run Futurities ever seen. So well bunched
was the field that a urlong from home
any one of the 15 had a chance. But
Electioneer was best. He never faltered
under a-grueling drive, which began at
the head of the stretch and lasted until
the finjsh. Jockey Willie Shaw was in
me saaaie-and never aid a Doy give a
more skillful, exhibition of horsemanship.
He judged his pace and timed his win
nlng rush to the fraction of a second.
He placed - his whip without mercy
through the last sixteenth.-and won a
race which called forth a. thunder -of
cheers for both horse and -rider. .
EJectioneer was second choice in the
bettinp at four to one. In the first mad
rush Electioneer was- overlooked and iris
price lengthened to eighths. Then there
followed a scene in the ring such as has
been seldom witnessed at Sheepshead
Bay. EJectioneer money seemed to pour
In from every side, and the layers were
swamped under the cloudburst of gold,
silver and notes which were throust upon
them. Peter Pan, Pope Joan arjd Ballot,
of the Keene entry were neglected.
Bettors Wake Up.
The glamor faded from the J4f.,000
Demund and the $25,000 Horace E. The
millionaire owners were passed by in the
mad hurry to back the horse of a prac
tical horseman. From 1 to 8 the
bookmakers cut until just half that
figure was the prevailing odds at post
time. Even then the Electioneer follow
ers kept hammering away until 1 to 3
was hard to find in the last few seconds.
There -vas delay of nearly eight
minutes at the post. Then the webbing
was sprung, and away lumped' PoDe
Joan. Peter Pan followed her. fa a iewj
Hundred yards but the pace .was too
swift for liim. - Yankee Gun got away
third and Horace E. was fourth to show.
Electioneer had been a bit unfortunate at
the breaki though . the start was - good
for all. .He was ninth as the timer's
flag went' down. Shaw took In the situa
tion and acted with swift decision. He
pulled Electioneer well to the outside and
began a race which will live long In the
memory of those who saw It- Clear of In
terference, Electioneer set to work to
overhaul his field. At the turn Into the
stretch of the main track he was still
lengths away from Pope Joan, who was
already being hailed as the winner.
Demund was second, fighting the Keene
Tilly at every step. Peter Pan was third
and Yankee Gun fourth.
Slows Down Ills Field.
Shaw pulled his whip, and at the first
lash Electioneer Jumped into a quicker
stride. Horse after horse succumbed to
his heart-breaking rush, until just a few.
yards from the wire his muzzle showed in
front of Pope Joan. The record-breaking
crowd roared its encouragement. Shaw
plied the whip once more and the race
was over.! As Shaw returned with the
winner to weish In he was greeted by a
remarkable demonstration.
It was unquestionably one of the most
popular victories of the year and the
blow the racegoers dealt the bookmakers
was stinging. The time, 1:13 3-5, was not
fast.
The Futurity purse this year contained
exactly J16.T70. Of this amount $37,270
went to Mr. Lakeland, the owner of the
winner. Mr. Keene received J3TS0 as the
share for the second horse and Paul
Rainey drew $C0u0 for Deniund's third
honors.
Division of Purse.
Electioneer was bred and nominated by
the late Major G. B. Thomas of Ken
tucky. Two thousand dollars of the
Futurity purse goen to the nominator of
the winner but. Major Thomas being
dead, the $2000 will be paid to his Estate.
II r. Keene received an additional $?2S0 for
nominating the second horse and $000

SALEM CHIEF IS SNUBBED
RESENTS BY SUSPENDING HIS OF
FENDING SUBORDINATE. "
Members of tbe City Council Are Said
to Be Involved in Disclosures
That Are Promised.
SALEM, Or.. Sept. 1. (Special.)
Chief Cornelius today suspended Offi
cer Longcor. No reasons were given for
the summary action, but it is said that
when the matter comes up for hearing
before the City Council next Monday
night there will be some sensational
charges presented.
The trouble between Chief Cornelius
and Longcor began last "Winter when
the dominant faction, antagonistic to
the chief, elected Dongcor against the
chief's wishes. The relations of the
two officers have never been harmo
nious but open hostilities did not begin
until this Summer, when Dongcor con
tinued the policy of driving all tramps
out of the city, while Chief Cornelius
wanted them left In town long enough
for the farmers to offer them jobs.
The chief has complained that his
subordinate would not show proper
respect for his authority. For several
weeks it has been known that the po
lice committee had charges under con
sideration and it has been rumored that
Officer Longcor had an affidavit or
two in his possession that made some
of the mmebors of the City Council
rather reluctant to force an Issue with
him. Now that Longcor has been sus
pended it is expected that there will
be a complete exposition of all the
wrongs that are alleged to exist.
Chief Cornelius says the police de
partment is now the rottenest it has
ever been in the history of the city
and he will try to prove it next Mon
day night. In the meantime he de
clines to go into details. Mr. Longcor
says he is not afraid of an investigation.
