New YORK, Oct Z, 1S9i.-TSpeciai cor

The scene OF racing excitement has been
st+ifted from Gravosead to Jerome park.
Bat what is technically known as the ''rac-
1Eg public is still talking industriously
nDoat the extraordinary season on the Long
Island track
New Workers are sgain reading race en-
tries IN tbs morning papers, for the man
Rser Of Jarome park has not made up his
mind to initiate the tactics Of Mr.. Phil
Dwyer by shutting every avenue of infor-
nation against the pool rooms Yet It is
discovered now that there is swee IN ess in
the stolen information obtained during the
Gravesend season. The week of unhamp-
cred observation on Mr.. Morris, track has
not contained nalf the excitement furnished
by one day of detective-hauuted Grave
send. There was fascination about a
horde Of Pinkerton men all watching for
some traitors who may be communicating
1acts to the outside world, over or under
that famous high fence which rose ex-
tremely high but somehow never entirely
excluded the outer world.
The coaohmRn and his hat are still a
source of plentiful gossip. Everybody has
his own theory about that coachman and
the manner Of his detection. This much is
definite, that the "coachman" was one Of
the cleverest telegraphic operators in
America; that he had very cleverly con-
structed electric fash arrangement in his
hat, and that this fash, emitted in the dots
and dashes OF the Morse Geographic sys-
tenn, was read through a slit in the crown
ny another operator, armed with tele-
scope, in hotel tower $50 feet away.
saw the man yesterday who supplied
the reflector that was used to intensity the
brllliancy of the electric fash on the hat in
tsrior, for by daylight even electric light
emlts relatively mild CLEAN. The appa-
ratus throughout had been managed very
shrewdly by experts under the pay of the
Western Union company.
There is not such clear understanding as
to the manner in which the most ingenious
OF oil the means TO circumvent Dryer and
get information to the pool rooms, was sup
pressed. At the outset all the credit was
given to Bob Pinkerton, whose lynx eve
wus supposed TO have caught the CLEAN Of
the electric light through the cut in the
crown Of that innocent looking coachman's
hat. But II turns out that Bob Pinkerton
did not see the fash, nor did anybody else
who wasn't expected to see it, until a
trusted associate of the ilching combina-
to1 revealed the scheme to Dwyer-for q
confederation.
This consideration is now stated to have
been exactly 81, GOO. Dwyer WAS told that
certain system of sending information out
OF the grounds was in successful operation.
lie was asked what il was worth to be 'tput
onto' the secret system. Dwyer, as the
story now goes, said it would be worth ten
one hundred dollar bills and he put them
down. Then the informer, who was being
PRlG much less to help the electrical coach
man, pointed out the ingenious hat, and the
JIG was up.
1t will be long time before racing his
tory furnishes racing people ana the CON
templatve public with another period of
such curious events.
COLUMBIA MEN TRAINING

Itself famous this fail. 1t is going to see

BOWLING FOR WOMEN.
There has been good deal of bowling at
the summer resorts, and people are coming
back TO town with new interest in this
vigorous sport. But the real novelty is
that women are becoming deeply interested
In form Of amusement which they have
previously sampled with something of in
different caution.
Naturally, the chief characteristic of
feminine bowling at this time lies in the
fact that most Of the pins remain standing
after the three balls have been rolled down
the alley. In consideration of this tendency
1t is fact that at the summer ALLEYS. az
well as In the city, q considerable reduction
Ia price is made TO women who bowl to-
gether. The presumption is that a smaller
