AMERICAN JOCKEY CLUB.
Second Days sport----Four
Spirited Races.
InVercauld, The COrSican, Mctairie and
Harbinger the Winners.

Notwithstanding the threatening aspect OF Nle
weather yesterday morning there was good
attendance at Jerome Park attracted by the inter-
estln9 programme Of the second days races OF the
American Jockey Club The number OF aristocratic
ladies was greater than might have been expected
and included many OF the lte OF the city, Including
Mrs. Judge Roosevelt and daughter, Mrs. Simeon
LELAND and daughter, Mrs. r. l.. Cutting, Sonora
Perez, of Havana; Mrs. DR.. sayre, Mrs. II. M. vii.
iiams, Miss Annie Horton, Mrs. General Lloyd
s. Aspinwall, Mrs. +. Atwood, Miss Morris,
daughter OF L.. G. Morris, Mrs. Alex
amer Taylor, Mrs. colonel Kinney, Mrs.
Nelson Chase Miss Perkins, Mrs. Godfrey Gunther
and Mrs. s. G. Courtney. Alexander Randall,
ex Postmaster General, was among the notabes
present. But few stylish equpages were out, every
one having apprehended storm, and the display
OF Dress though quite elegant. did not compare with
that OF the previous days races
Tne track was in an exceedingly bad condition,
over onehalf OF it being covered with slush; and In
many places water was standing In pools rendering
ii very heavy for the horses and materially essentng
the spirit Of the races. SO muddy was the course
that Belmonts ny Attraction nearly fell in the first
race ano threw her rider violently. She was ridden
by Bocock, q boy recently sent from England by Mfr.
Belmont and who manifested no littlo discontinue
at being endorsed at this, his first mount In the
United States. The Corsican came very near falling
in the second race, and all the running was very
much embarrassed.
In the third race the same Objectionable fca-
ture was presented concerning which the
public are SO much interested and the
press has so frequently commented. A
change or colors was made, Mr.. Eiwees wearing his
own colors (orangel instead OF red and white, as
announced in the programme. This change it is
true, was announced at the judges stand, but In
low voice, which only reached the few sporting men
congregated about the pool stand, and not dozen
persons among the uniniuated were able to dtstln-
guish the horses during the race. If a change OF
colors at such times must be tolerated 1t
adds a very weighty argument to the many
already cited for announcing BY her
aid the horses and coors in each race.
Great complaint is made by the public OF the impos
siblty OF decipherlng the programme in the brief
time occupied by each race and the horses have
frequently returned to their stables before the
majority OF people in the club stand well else
where, could comprehend the race. It would be the
work OF minute to announce IN front OF the club
stand the horses and colors and besides adding
vastly TO the excellence and Interest OF the occasion,
It would give the American Jockey Club preemt
nence in popular favor
The pool selling By DR.. Underwood was quite ami
mated, as will be seen by the following Summary
