By Vincent Treanon SARATOGA, V. Aug. 9. BARTON, regarded na the "jl klnc tho handicap division, ho far at least, was quietly shipped away from bora lost II waa wat to Fort Erie to run In tho $10,000 Dominion Handicap then on Wednes day.

Sande will go nwav to rid hlin, Although there ore some good hordes at Fort Eria to glvo Barton buttle, tho toco Is regard hero oa a foregone conclusion. ri The Bom Champion Is' at the top of his form Just Among thoso likely to oppoM him in tho rich Fort Erie stake are Slippery Elm and The Porter. The latter, It will be remembered, beat him at Laurel last fall. "He's the best horse I erer straddled had all I could do to kocp nJra from running away." Such ti.o rls of Jocfcoy Earl Sand a as he jMiieit his boots out of the strrupt iiopped off Alan War bock great colt had galloped to an w- victory In tho Miller stakes Saturday. Tho boy was answer-, -idk Judge Chrjs Kltigerald's auery: "What do you think of him and there was a ring of sincerity In his reply.

a weok previous, Sande had ridden Sir Barton to a mile and quarter victory In tho remarkable time of 3.01 Thinking the words of Sande regarding Man o' War might contain some means of comparing the Riddle champion with Sir Barton' In view of tho possibility of their meeting, we asked duy Hcawefl, the clever trainer of Commander Ross's stripe, what he thought of Sande's remarks. The question seemed to strike a tender spot in Bedwcll. He answered us with the question: "What do those kids know and what difference docs It make what they say A trainer put them on a good horse, and all they have to do is sit on him. The horse carries them name." "What about tho trainer?" Again Bedwell questioned us. "Any one would think the Jockey Is solely and entirely entitled to tho credit when a a nor so wins." no auaca.

-StlliM minltn nnrt thma nrlnrera The. imbue ana those adorers ot Jockeys-force all about the trainer. He gets little credit when his horse wins and Ul the abuse It he loses; yet he In tho person who shoulders -all the responsibility. He has all the worries. He trains the horse, brings him up to a race, keeps him 'on edge and watches his every movi long In advance or a race.

no. nas to 'be on the lookout constantly fori scratches and cuts. how the horse la M-n I into consideration eats, watch huw and keep track of stable holp and a dozen and one. other things. The Jockey hn none of these troubles.

All he does Is to follow instructions, and It takes a good one to do that. Why, some of them would beat a sprouting champion In three-eighths of a mile If the matter wero left to their Judgment. And they make as much as $6,000 a year." "What do you think of Sir nar-ton's chances against Man WarT" we Interrupted. "Well." and Bedwcll rubbed his chin, "Man Wor would be hard Ahorse to beat. The little red horse (Sir Buxton), however, wuld make him run." Bedwell switched off the Jockey auo- Ject and pardonably began to tell of hl success In bringing back Hr Bar- ton to the races.

"How ttmnv tlmrs did you hear that horse had broken down and was gone entirely after Purclmae beat him last summerr Bedwell wni again Interviewing the- Interviewer, Often, we admitted, and then Bedwell went on: "Why, tnatner told me. I woji a rraiv man to attempt to train him again. John Madden pleaded with me to retire him to the stud. Last fall, when he was beaten In Maryland, I had to stand for a lot of gibing and I-told-you-so's. "Well, you saw him run the other day, didn't Von? You saw him stand Trre Porter, Mad Hatter and WUd Air 'on their heads, and then tome on and break the nrlln ond a quarter track record.

I gueu the gives Oie jockey credit for that performance and the horse's rJuvenatton, ehr BeOwell chuckled, and as an after- Uiouht, said: "Yes. Man o' War ta a irreat liorBe. but you'll notice he didn't break old Cudgel's record for a mile and a ehe-teenUv." Wo givtflvered from our chat with the JRojw trainer thn.1 ho would welcome a chance a. Man War with Sir Barton. Tho first week of the Saratoga, meeting attracted big crowds but didn't fitmlsh anvthlnr sensational In a roo- lnir way.

Of course irlajftous was thrown around the ap- pearanca of Man o' War. He Is a public Idol, and whenever he races It Is a big event, but tho dyed-ln-tbe-wool resular would rather have a lot of cheap selling platers straining their muscles to beat one another. Bo then Man o' War races are merely exorcise gallopa for the great horse and they wouia preior uiai iiv uo na caw cLe In the mornings. "Th boys' want some-thing to bet on.

Kveryono seems afraid of the old jinx In playing too woll beforb a championship and half of tho veter ans aro not any too keen on breaking records.

Ho strucK out eight df them and gave but one base on balls. Tho Yanks got ono man to third base and two to second, and never had a-chance.

The score was 1 to 0. Tho Texas two-gunner. Rip Collins, pitched a good game too. But he wasn't' as effective as Ehmke. He was -unsteady In spots and his own instcadlness was fatal, for he al-' iwcu uie omy run ot wiu gaum iu score on a wild pitch.

Ho was in' danger In other innings than the fatal fourth, but always pitched hlraoelf, out neaUy. His support was spark- ling. Collins had two strikes on Ty Cobb In tho fourth, but that meant nothing to Ty. Ho hit a single past Ward, which blossomed into a doublo when It bounded crookedly Into the overflow crowd.
