arranged between Messs Dwyer and DeIacy It is said
on many sides that the Jockey Club not want the pub

OHIO RIVER LINES COMPLAIN.

Chicago, Sept. 23-Commissioner Fulton. Of the
Chicago and Ohio River Traffic Association has writ
ten to Chairman Finley, Of the Western Passenger
Association calling his attention to resolutions adopted
By the Ohio River lines last January These resolu-
ons requested the Western roads 10 discontinue the sale
of tickets from Kansas City, AtchisOn, and Leaven-
worth via Chicago to Lafayette and points south
thereof at short line limited rates. Commissioner Full
ton complains that the request has not been com
piled with, and that the Kansas City rate sheet of
August quotes short line limited rates via Chicago to
indianapolis Lafayette, KOkOmO, Delphi Richmond
and Cincinnati. Chairman Finley has referred the
complaint to the members of his association, with the
suggestion that the matter be considered.

THE DAY IN THE POOLROOMS.

The pOor0Oms have suffered another slight relapse
and II is evident that the Brooklyn Jockey Club has
still fight left in it. The failure Of Peter De
Lacys scouts to get the official timing in three OF the
races until about two hours after the horses had passed
the post was probably due to the fresh obstruction
placed in the way Of the north pole. The story of
Phil Dwyer's renewal Of the fight is told elsewhere.
The man in the bird cage was obliged TO view the
racing from the southern end of the track. 1t is not
certain that the change Of materially affected
the value OF bis information. It is certain, however,
that the official placing by the judges in the first,
second and third races was long delayed in transmits
sion 10 the poOrOOms of course the descriptions
all called OIL on time and in each case were per
fectly accurate. But until the judges havo confirmed
the reports from the sentnels the heglGs the city
boOhmakeis will not cash winning tickets Again, those
who have backed horses in the first race will not in
vest cent on the second until they be that
they have won or lost their money. In word
without the official report from the judges business in
the city pOorooms is brought to complete sandstill-
This just the condition OF affairs yesterday. The
pOoIroom which early in the forenoon had been fairly
we'll filled, gradually empted 5 the day The
Gloucester skates had charms for but those in
veterate and ncurable gamblers who would bet on a

quarters in Park Row, the number If visitors never
exceeded forty. Many o. the smaller rooms in the
city, in despair Of clearing the days expenses
have been closed up until the Gravesend meeting Is
over.
The lists Of entries yesterday although mainly
rect, contained two glaring blundcrs. For
instance Lady Pulsifer who left her stable was
quoted as a runner I'm the won by Raceland. The
lists in the second third and fourth races were alb
soluely accurate, but in the fifth race Trngle and
ST. Pancras were wrongly chalked up as runners,
while Torchlight, fortunately perhaps for many IN
fatuated people, never mentioned. In the cases
of favortes and second favCrltes the prices offered
hv the pOorOOms closely followed those given in the
ring but with outsiders the city bOOkmakers would
take no chances Many ghosts against whom 80 and
60 to was vainly offered at Grpvesend were never
at better than 12 and 10 TO In the poolrooms one
sicnifcar fact however deserves notice. Raceland,
