ALBANY STAKES.
Although the races at Morris Park nominally pegin
Mt O'clock the management wisely calls the first
race at about 2l5. That gives time for people who
are delayed on the journey to the first contest
Those who leave the lower part of the city late
I O'Clock will miss nothing The air bit shrewdly
yesterday. october turning its frosty SIDE TO the
turf II the sky had been dark and lowering the
attendance would have been larger than it was, al
though the contests not OF the first order Of I'M
portance. STILL there a fair number of spectators
on hand.
Michael F. Dryer decided not to start Stonenel in
the first with 142 pounds up. but If Sonene had
run, he would have been u strong favorite and an
almost certain winner In his absence Rival, Tor
mentor and Aloha were we'll backed. Rival carried
much money that the price against her was cut
down rapidly from 10 to to to 1. She was ridden
By Tara and took the prize, although II Garrison had
been on Tormentor the result would have been differ
ent Garrison understands Tormenor better than any
one else. and get far more out of him than any
other rider can.
Taral also rode the victor in the second race the
Western colt, Michael. That eccentric beast Mr.
Sass got second place at outside odds The worst
performance in the that OF Mr.. Galway's
mare Livonia, who fell back far In the Uefore
the mile half over, and beaten of. Some
thing is plainly amiss either in the training rid
ing Of Livonia when she that way. II Mr..
Galway not most patient and long-sufering
he would make some changes In his stables. 1t may
be that his jockey Blake, could not do better than
be did with Livonia. but 1t is certain that he rode
Glamor in the third race and Adebert In the fourth
In q manner that aroused much acrd comment. Mr.
Galway ought to be able to better Jockey
than Blake & ride his horses This boys bungling

observers suspected him OF intentional disloyalty 10

on october l Pierre Loriard's Yemen, carrying
los 1-2 pounds, six furongs in 100 3D. But Yemen
aSt very he
prefers six furlongs seven. Moreover he does
not like the hill. But he was made great favorite
In the third race. Some bookmakers said that there
stable money Yemen. They were wrong.
Mr.. Lorlard backed Yemen, but not heavily as he
doubted his ability TO run with III pounds. Yemen
prominent for half mile and then collapsed and
came in last. Frederick Gebhard's Canvass, the
gel 500 purchase in this selling race 10 be sold
for $780, Canvass fought out the finish with Great
Hopes FLY also entered TO be sold for $500. some
bookmakers gave 2o to 1 against Great Hopes, but
she won the race, with Canvass second, ana LOllah
third. Glamor had shown form enough in her recent
races 10 defeat poor lot of creatures this but
Blake rode her IN the strangest manner. He Kept
her under strangling pull for half mile ana on
coming the homestretch he went wide with her
to lose many lengths. She was fourth at the
finish. Mr.. Galway cannot expect TO win races with
this sort Of riding, and Bake's riding OF Adelbert
In the fifth was even worse Adelbert was
well up with the others for two furongs when he sud
denly fell back almost dozen lengths. as II he had
been jumped The brilliant Bake's explanation
was that he 1erked the horse too suddenly, as ne
was ordered TO ride a waiting race, and the horse
dropped back. This explanation seemed to satisfy Mr.
Galway, but he satisfied far too easily boy that
cannot ride q waiting race without suddenly Jerking
q horse far back behind the others IS not fit TO
hold Jockeys license Adelbert carried lob pounds

Adelbert to defeat Strathneath by "watingl" Adel-
bert made up much ground In the homestretch but
could not catch either Strathmeath or Equity.
strathmeath won easily, Equity second
Waloott & Campbell had a good chance 10 WIN the
