The most important happening in the turf
world during the past week was tho meeting
OF tho Board OF Control on Thursday. when
Messrs. Dwyer. Lawrence. and Walcott. repre-
senting the Brooklyn and Coney Island Jockey
Clubs and the Monmouth Park Racing Asso-
citation. agreed to enforce. carry out, and sus-
tain all rulings of that body. 1t was facer
for tho outlaws. who all along have argued
that tho famous rule OF Dec. ~ would DO re-
scinled. and proves that the members OF tho
Board of Control are made OF tho proper ma
terial. and that the legitimate turf Is safe In
their hands.
The announcement spread CONSIDERATION
among the horsemen ON tho hilltop and
visions OF thousand dollar purses that they
could have won must have flashed before the
eyes Of Messrs. Leigh. Bradley. Mccormick.
Shields. and others who have more than hold
their own during tho summer months at tho
legitimate tracks In years past. The hilltop
followers have all winter been willing to
bet that the ban would DO removed.
Threats OF vengeance against tho Board
OF Control and tho tracks it represents.

numerous. but no fears aro entertained
OF serious difficulties. Peter DeLaccy is !e-
ported as saying that he will close Monmouth
