Fsr that natter, al thros " them state
summer was simply rotten HIS frlena
Aiguerey declares that Boa. Telis Dee and
dozens n horses are run largely IN the IN
terssl oi ooolInakers, winnisg one day away
OF and .oslng the next under tLe most sus-
pic.0us circumstance. Ia the course Of al
interview Pal, without specifying any par
tlcQlar loI OF horses, confirmed this state
ment To show how oarefsced some OF the
ioos are ~ related an incident OF the steepie-
chase which Elphia wen, in which " ilio
Palmer finished second. A well known
bookraaizer. who had been hit hard on the
steeplers, slated the entries, but failed 10
put up any odds. Turning 20 the crowd
ABOUT als stand, DC said. There they are,
bOys, but you can't knock my eye cut on
any Of them Then be reversed bis slate
aud continued: Il have ElaD down there
Ia the paddock who Is going 20 bring me tho
first and second horse. He will bring them
sure" Presently the man returned and
whispered something 10 the bookmaker,
VINO remarked
Here they are, Elphin and Willie Palmer.
They viii come this way unless one or both
OF them fau down" Many OF his auditors
imagined he was testing, but some OF them
started 20 play the tip. The odds on both
horses were cut down at once. and sure
enough, they finished Elphin FIRST, Palmer
second. They say, added the Plunger, that
amcng betting men It Is understood that
nearly every race of this kind is a Job, and
the system Is not 10 play the horses on
merit, but on tho tip, II IL can be obtained.
The other day Phil won $4,000 playing
Mais. Saratoga winner, in New York
books. He has become 80 well known
about the tracks that dozens Of people watch
his every move, but this trip be proposes to
change his TACTICS and do business more for
himself and more on the quiet
Speaking OF Proctor Knottis win in the
Junior Champion Stakes, Phil said he was
the only one in il from end 10 end. After
the race Phil Dwyer offered Sam Bryant
s2J, 900 for the colt, but sam remarked that
noGey would not buy him. He Is IN the
! Futurity Stakes, TO be run at Coney Island
IN September, and the general belief is that
/ be win win il. As the race will be worth
about $4,000 10 the winner, there may be
reason IN Bryant's refusal Of the offer
/ Phil says Proctor Knott is the beat colt that
/ ever stood on iron, and he told all hi.
! friends that he wogld win the race unless
| Knott fell down or pulled leg of. Yet for
ali this he came 10 the post with odds
| Of 10 against him. Bryant declares
! that his great colt General Harding was the
( best one he ever saw until Proctor Knott
came to town, but he declares that Knott
could make show Of the General the best
+ day he ever saw.
With all his good luck on the turf, Phil !:
becoming tired Of the business. he told I
friend Just before starting East that the ex
element was too much for him. II is alto
gether probable that he VIII give up plung
ing after this season and settle down {,
/ some regular business
