GarriSOn'S Case and
Other Rulings of
the Board.
PROPOSED MATCH FOR RILEY.

The following notice. issued late yesterday
afternoon and printed In THE EVENING
WORLDS Sporting Extra last night, created
more CONSERVATION among turfmen than
would a bull in a well-regulated china store:
"The license OF Edward II. Garrison is
hereby suspended"
just this and nothing more. IL meant that
one OF the best jockeys in the country had
been the first TO be made an example OF by
the new racing Board, and that he was not to
be permitted to ride on any OF the Eastern
tracks. There Is no reason given for this rul-
ing. Secretary vosburg said it was done "on
general principles"
It Is assumed by many that Garrison is
guilty OF pulling Judge Morrow at Sheepshead
Bay and OF doing the same thing with Rsqui-
mau at Morris Park But on the other hand,
It can be assumed that while the snapper is
guiltless OF both OF these charges, the Board
considers that the public will be better on
without than with his services
Whichever way the matter is looked at, It
must be acknowledged that the Board OF
Control composed as It Is OF fair-minded and
reputable people, must have had strong evi-
dence upon which 70 base It's ruling. Garri-
son rode for two members OF the Board,
Messrs. ID. d. Withers ana Philip j. Dwyer.
Their influence evidently could not outweigh
the evidence, Whatever it may nave been.
Though It has been openly charged that
Garrison pulled Judge Morrow last week, the
writer has some doubts on the matter. There
is a reasonable doubt, ana Garrison should
receive the beneit OF 1t. In the race in ques-
ton, Judge Morrow was badly beaten by
Tulla Blackburn, at mile and a sixteenth In
l.47, very fast time. Tulla Blackburn carried
115 pounds and Judge Morrow 100.
carried lla pounds and defeated Banquet and

ing 1913 pounds at a mile and furlong In

compare these performances with the race
which Tulla Blackburn ran yesterday.
than Judge Morrow did on wednesday, and
ran a mile and au eighth In 1.55 40, winning
in a canter. Whipped out, she could have
covered the distance In 1.55. IL must De
borne in mind also that a mile and furlong
Is trifie further than Tulla Blackburn wes
to go. In comparison Tulla Blackburn to-day

should go long ways towards refuttng the
| charge that he pulled Judge Morrow. The
trouble Is that Garrison Is a very laxative
young man and his tongue gets him into
trouble. lie is expected TO win all the time,
and when he does not the cry immedlately
goes up: "The snapper yanked the horSe."
There Is too much Of this indiscriminate
charging.
The Board OF Control also issued this order
Yesterday: "NOtice Is hereby given that
licenses OF Jockeys who bet on the races VIII
be revoked, and that any person making bet
with or on behalf OF Jockey VIII be ruled on
the course" This Is good step In the right
direction. jockey who bets on another
mount than his own Is never anxious 70 beat
that horse out at the finish. steps should be
taken TO rlgidly enforce this rule.
Another ruling OF the Board yesterday was
that the falling OF 81. Flor1an was purely 40
cIdentAL This decision was anticipated In
these columns several days ago. The Board
has now shown that II intends 10 get right
down 10 business. The cooperation OF every
one who has the best interests OF the turf at
heart win not be lacking.
