EVENTS ON THE TURF.

The War Between Dwyer and the
Bookmakers Still on at Gravesend.
GRAvEsEND, l.. l., Sept. 16.-Racing
was continued to-day, but before much
smaller crowd than was present yesterday,
and all because the track and pool rooms
we're trying to get the best of each other.
The track management again refused to
make known the entries until twenty
minutes before each race, and as that was
entirely too little time on which
TO carefully consider tho chances Of
the different starters, the public re-
fused TO invest to any great extent.
This caused intense dissatisfaction among
the hookmakers and at the next drawing,
which occurs Saturday, a number of them
will refuse to 90 on. The weather could
not have been improved upon and the track
was IN tirst-class shape. The racing was up
to the usual standard, but as the greater
portion of what little money was invested
remained in the srrong boxes Of the book
makers, it was adisgruntled crowd that left
the track after the sixth race. The events
