Griffs Fall Twice as Yanks Rally In Twin Bill
The Nationals debuting Stan Harris and Frank Ellerbe showed bright promise but fell to the Yankees 5 4 in fourteen innings and 5 3 in the nightcap. Harris drove in four in his first major league games while Ellerbe added a ninth inning double. Johnson and Harper pitched solidly for the Griffs but costly plays and late Yankee bursts sealed both games.

Offer of $300000 For Purchase Refused To Hildreth
Saratoga Springs NY Aug 283 Samuel Hildreth owner of Purchase confirms he was offered 300000 for his 23 year old horse yesterday. Albert Simons acted for an unknown client and the bid was declined.

He recalls past prices for Travery colt Panther and notes records like Rock Sand and St Blaise as comparisons.
