SHEEPsHEAD BAY, June ga
crowd of 5000 persons journeyed to the
track, and were treated to some first
class sport. The weather was a trifie
warm, but pleasant withal. The track
was in fine shape, and the card, while
not heavy one, was evenly balanced
and promised much. The feature of it
was the COney Island cup, for which
Riley, the Western colt, was asked to
defeat RaceIand and Potomac, Mike
Dryers representatives. He did so,
and in such style as to stamp him one of
the best handicap horses in training.
On the whole, the talent Jared
well on the day, as four favorites and
two strongly backed second choices car
| ried off the money. After deliberating
three days the board of control has
come to the conclusion that in the fut-
ure jockeys who bet shall have their
licenses revoked. 1t has also decided
that the accident to st. Florian on the
opening day was the fault of no one.
Jockey Edward Garrison's license has
been suspended indefinitely, but for
what reason the board refused to state.
