they have held in several previous years, thaC oil

that the total Of stakes and purses won by the
powerful Brooklyn stable will exceed sl4G'Ooo'
but as the Dwyer horses will continue TO run for
a month longer in New-Jcrscy, it is mpo slble 10
estimate their gains with any approach TO eX-
actness Mr. Belmont's colors will not be seen on
the turf again In 1889, and the aggregate sum
won bv his stable is computed at about 81 900.
The exceptionally lucky Mr.. Scott, whose happy
stroke OF more than So 900 in the Fuurity Stakes
riyes him a prominent position, has also retired
for the wear j. b. Haggn may possibly run
some of his horses at Linden, but if he does not
he may well feel contented over the financial re-
turns of tie season, although his profits are al
most entirely due TO Salvador and FIrcnzi, with
little help from Aurelia at Jerome Park III the
June meeting The California stable OF l.. d.
Baldwin. which has been formidable in some other
years, holds meek and lowly position in 1882
for the only horse of much worth that has run IN
its colors this year IS Los Angeles When The
Bard was in the full development of his powers
Mr. Cassatt held comfortable place among the
winning owners. But his stable has been COM
paratively weak this season, although Enc, lara
gon and Now-or-Ncver have won fair sums.
| With the tropical forcing of hot-house two
year-old racing on a huge scale, the stable that Is
not strong in youngsters has poor chance for
great gains, although it is true that Mr.. Belmont,
Mr. Haggin and the Dryers owe their prosperity
in no small measure TO Raceland, Frenzi, Saliva
tori Kingston and other horses that are not infants.
But with the greatly increased number and the
vastly enhanced value of tho important two-year-
! old stakes an owner who does not possess fast
tborou Chbred babies is inclined 10 take despond-
emf view Of affairs. Mr. Withcrs in 1888 could
exult over the balance in his racing ledger. with
the fat figures put down to the credit Of his many
winning two-ycar-oldS. But this year, for reasons
familiar to all racing men. his stable went TO
