RELATING TO RUNNERS.

The board of control is being severely
criticised for request to the New York
newspaper chiefs to forbid their racing
reporters from betting on the races
about which they write.
Lexington and Nashville have agreed
upon dates for their fall meetings this
year by which the race meetings will
not conflict. Lexington is to have an
eleven-day meet, from Oct. Is to 81 in
elusive, while Nashville Will begin a
twenty-day meeting Oct. 90.
Wadsworth is at Latonia, but it is not
likely he will face the flag again this
fall. He is rounding too nicely, and
Col. Robert Holloway, who owns half
give Wadsworth a rest until next
spring. He is greatly Improved, and
with little work would be up to race
i'll few days. l think it best to give

day Lucky Baldwin recognized the
old Illinois canal. on which forty-five
years ago he was captain of barge
Chicago Herald.
Bashford, by imp. Woodlands, out of
Sister of Mercy, died at Gravesend very
suddenly last Saturday. He was the
property OF George Long, of Bashford
Manor, KY. and was one of the best
twO-year-olds in the West last year.
Bashford was one of the finest-io0king
thoroughbreds that ever ran a race, and
Pierre Lorillard once offered $4,000 for
him. Ever since he defeated YO Tam
bien last spring in almost record time
he has been ailing, and he scored no
winning bracket since.
Garrison has the best percentage of
the winning jockeys, with the exceed
lngly good average of 81 per cent. FitZ-
patrick. however, runs him very close
with 33 per cent, while the Western

with 50 per cent. GOodale has an aver
age of 25 per cent. Hamilton stands
this season badly, with only Is per cent
to his credit.
The Scoggan Bros. have severed their
connection with Hugh Penny, and
Tiny" Williams has been engaged to
I'LL his place with the stable.
Pierre Lorillard's plans for next sea-
sons campaign are extensive in the eX-
IRENE, Says the Spirit of the Times. He
will have no less than three trainers of
John Huggins, Snip DOnavan and Bar
ney Riley. Mr.. Lorillard has digested
the question of racing very thoroughly
and has reached a definite conclusion.
On his own horses he has won a lot OF
money this season, but has dropped it
on other peoples. There is. therefore,
only one way out of the dilemma, and
this is to have horse in every race!
After 70 Tamblen's race in the
Bridge handicap at Monmouth very
peculiar discovery was made. which
will necessitate her retirement for the
season. A nail was found i'll her leg,
and after it had been removed the great
filly Immediately showed relief. and
was quite playful.
A race between Ida Pickwick and
Reckon would be grand treat. Both

ported.
