BLoop HORSE AssocIATIoN.-Me ssrs. Fini-
gan, Schwartz, Culver and Coleman, a
committee of the Blood horse Association,
held a meeting yesterday afternoon at the
Union Hotel to hear a charge preferred by
J. B. Haggin against r. p. Ashe and Matt.
NJ. Allen, of having employed rider who
had not furnished satisfactory evidence of
release by his former employer. Mr.. Ashe
conducted his side of the case, and Judge
Beatty appeared for Mr.. Haggin. The evil
dence was taken and the case submitted.
The circumstances seem to be that Matt
Allen, Mr.. Ashes trainer, met Mike Kelly,
well-known jockey, one day, and inquired
what he was doing Kelly responding that
he was out of work. having quit Mr. Hag-
gins employ, and that he had some
thoughts of going to New Orleans. Allen
suggested that Mr.. Ashc wanted rider,
and would pay as good wages as any one
The result was that they called upon Mr..
Ashe, and Kelly was engaged. Kellys
statement is that he quit work came in
from the Haggin ranch and settled up in
full, and considered that he was free.
though he admitted that he did not settle
with Mr. Mackey, who had hired him. nor
tell him that he was going to leave Racing
rules make ii a serious matter for "a rider to
leave one employer and engage with an
other until his time is up, and he formally
receives his discharge; and for any owner
or manager to hire a rider without salts
factory evidence that he is free to engage.
Ii is said that this matter will be brought
mp at the annual meeting of the State Agri
cultural Society next Monday
