Kock of the New-York Jockey Club. whose meeting
follows that at Gravesend, would hold the brooklyn
Jockey Club responsible for the full amount OF tlat
owners forfets IL Mr. Kock should permit such owner

Coney Island Jockey Club would hold the New YORK
Jockey Club responsible for mans Indebtedness,
and in like manner if Mr.. Lawrence should offend
against the forfeit agreement, the Coney Island cub
would be required to answer TO Secretary Crlckmore
of Monmouth Park. Thus each club stands AT tie
back of the other forcing it in measure to protect
its allies in order to protect itself There is some
satisfaction in the knowledge that very large ma

Some Of the largest stand in the names OF men
long since on dead list. 1t is not likely that they
ever will be paid. Among the winners Of stakes to
whom large portion Of the forfeit money is due are
W. L. Scott and the Dwyers. Mr. Scott is having a
sweet time collecting the S34 900 which Chaos won in
the Futurty.
The result Of the Nashville Two Thousand Sweep

lucky Derby the withdrawal of Riley made the

Sir Dixon, owing to widely circulated reports OF
fast gallop at Graveend has been backed down to tile
place of favorite the Brooklyn Handicap. The best
obtainablc price about him Saturday was 6 to l.
1t seems the height of folly to back him at those odds
as the chances at least 90 10 against his start
ing Fdes has fallen back few points, while Badge
has advanced TO to !. The latter is considered
certain starter he will 90 the post thoroughly
seasoned and, in the opinion of good judges, ten
pounds better than at any other period Of his career
there seems reasonable prospect of his securing
place. Books full Kingston, Hanover, Long

starter is quoted at to and senora at 80 10 l.

Senator Hearst has changed his coors His
trainer. Matt Allen believes that the blue jacket
and yellow sleeves lost the stable two races last
year by confusing the judges at the finish, horses
wearing similar coors being placed first by mistake
This may may not be true. but anyway the
Senator's Jockey this year (Hayward) will wear a
yellow jacket with blue sleeves, and yellow and
blue quarter cap.
