SIR WALTERS LORILLARD.
ST LEoNAKDs BEATEN ONCE MORE.
ANOTHER DISAPPOINTING DAY FOR FAvoRITEs
AND THE UNFORTUNATE PUBLIC.


There has been more unsatisfactory racing at East
st Louis at Hawthorne and Garfield Park In Chi
caro- a: Gloucester, at Guttcnburg and even AT
Brighton Beach, than there was at Monmouth farK
Yesterday, but not often. The attendance was not
large The great mass Of admirers Of thoroughbred
horses is becoming weary Of the extraordinary 10
versals OF form and the massacre OF legitimate Ia
vorites at Monmouth. A. F. Wslco;t, president OF
the Monmouth Park Association, does not appear 10
he extremely anxious for the success OF the racing
at Long Branch, or he would run his own horses
there instead Of at Chicago. and above all, he would
recall Taral from his exile in the West. Very few
Jockeys are now riding in America in whose hon
e,,y alertness and skill the majority OF followers OF
the runners exhibit any confidence. The prevalent
distrust in nearly all OF the riders Is abundantiy
justified. Most Of them are at times stupid, sense
less sleepy. clumsy dishonest. Most OF them nave
borrowed money on one day or another from some
faro-bank keeper bookmakeI. and are unner oohga
lions TO the who have lent money TO them, ana
are ready TO pull horses TO 60 10 sleep at con-
yenient moments, when their drowsiness Will suit
the interests OF thet persons who hold their notes or
,de bills No distrusts Taral The general
conviction is that he Is honest, energetic alert ACUTE
resolute skilful. Why is he allowed to waste
his talents on air of Illinois. when he might
lie here7 Chicago has the Worlds Fair. Why should
not the Fast have Taral II he were here Inc al
tendance al the would be larger Tor many
people who like TO bet OH the contests have no trust
in ANY other Jockey, ana would lOho" i"iai
mounts II Taral were here.
IL seems incredible that any element OF Jealousy
or envy can be the of keeping Taral IN the
West Yet James K. Keene has second call on 1arai
by contract. Mr. Walcott has no stake horses oi
high class this year. II Taral We're at Monmouth
Park he would have the mounts on MI keeheS
horses in many important stakes. and Mr.. keenes
horses would then win many rich stakes which they
are now losing because they ridden by incompe-
or unfoithfu1 fockpys Keeping Taral IN chicago
when lie is much needed here is likely 10 cost the
Monmouth Park Association great deal OF money
and the association is to lose large sums THIS
summer it does not furnish more satisfactory ana
consistent racing than that which was seen yes
terday.
James r. Keene does many mistakes on
the turf but he made two serious ones when he put
Garrison on ST. Leonards in the Realization. ana
when he put sims on the same colt IN the Lorii'ro
stakes St. Leonards defeated in the $4,000
IorilIa.d stakes by Sir Walter, whom he outran by
at least three lengths In the Realzauoh, anu aiso
by Ramapo who was unplaced in the Realization
some shallow minded people. who tinnk they kho"
something about racing, but who really Epo" nO'hls
say now that st. Leonards is a quicter ana non
stayer Oh no! 1t is Sims, who is gutter ana
the non-stayer In the Realization ST. Leonards
lost first money BY head The distance was thirteen
furlongs. a quarter mile longer than the LonIafu
st. Leonards was fresh and not exhausted aftcr inc
Realization. lie fresh and not exhausted al'er
the Loriard.
Sir Walter the winner Of the Lorilard, ran an eA-
cellent race, and first money very easily. u
doultedlv he has improved vastly since his race IN
the Realization in which he was poor third to the
sunbeam colt and ST Leonards But now oio
Ramspo unplaced In the Realization, and colt that
ran wretched races both in the American Derby ano
the Realization succeed in wrestling second ace from
ST. Leonards in the Lorillad, with plenty to spare
Well sims did not ride Il. I.eonards either In the
American Derby or in the Realization. sims did ride
Lampligher in the Brooklyn Handicap. Certain books
were very hostile to Lamplghter In the Broohsh
Handicap Put two things together Is II possible
that certain gangrene in the American tui Is mere
indicated. which needs some deep cutting D! sur
getn's knife?
How many jockeys, who have ridden In TINS country,
have been thoroughly trustworthy through ana
through? Count them the fingers OF your TWO
hands You will need the thumbs.
Mr. Keene also made mistake In putting sloane
on Assignee in the Control Stakes, but he found 1t
difficult TO get a better jockey. Assignee showed
plenty Of speed, and got third place. lie could have
got second place with the utmost ease but sloane mas
friends in the betting ring. and perhaps these rieHus
did not care 10 see Assignee run better than third
There Is urgent need o; rafting Of the dry bones
at Monmouth and rapid exodus from the old ruts
The public which supports racing. Will not long
support such peculia' racing as was seen tGerr YES
terday. One OF the gentlemen coispicuou>ly lh'er-
ested In Monmouth Park, who thought that The rdhe
of O
WAS watching the finish of the race In the COhroI
Stakes and was wholly unable tell what horse ran
second and what horse third. Is this gentle
mans opimion Of 1ockeyship OF any vnlue
John Lambley has been the worst investment that
Michael F. Dwyer made Oh the turf. bS Ms
