WHAT "CULL" HOLLAND THINKS OF IT.

like the Dwyer brothers and Hankins aud

| which he Is connected. Racing associations,
| he told me, do not strive TO make money,
| but TO promote honest sport. They always
| strive, however, to meet expenses aud will
incur no obligations they cannot fulfill.
Some years they bob up serenely on the
right side OF the ledger with plenty of cash
| on hand. In other years they barely come
out ahead. The immense purses they offer
to secure the best talent equine the market
affords, the employment Of starters, judges
aud other high priced officials. together with
the great outlays caused by the rental or
purchase Of large e1pabse OF territory for
track purposes, coupled with hundred at
her incidental expenditures, eat up the tidy
| sums OF money taken IN at the gate.
JERE DUNN SAYS OWNERS GET LITTLE.
Jere Dunn, famous the world over as a
| horseman and all round sport, stoutly AYERS
| that the owner OF nags does not by long
shot capture the money that is lying around
loose. Jere has had stables OF trott.rs aud
| runners, aud once with his trim little mare
| Village Maid made $4,000 off a $1,000 in
vesrment. The mare was 40 to ! shot.
| and hardly anybody but Jere thought well
enoughE OF her TO place dollar GU her
| chances
Horse owners" said Jere to me, don't
make the tons OF gold people seem TO think
! they do. Rich men like .dr. Belmont and
! Mr. Lorillard had magnificent stables, yet
| in the last few years mad such hard luck
| that they decided TO sell out. Fred Geb-
| hardt, too, who IS O young Croesus, could not
| stand the pace even with sucn splendid
horse as Eole in his stable, and be, too, sold
| out. A few horse owners make money, but
the majority do not. They race simply out
! Of love OF sport.
! "'Who makes the money! you ask. Why
everybody gets a crack at lt--associations,
| bookmakers, pool room keepers, jockeys
! and even the players. There Is one good
thing about the sport, il no other-it keeps
the money in circulation. and when that is
floating around some portion Of the commu-
nifty must be benefited"
! The most successful jockey on tue Ameri-
can turf, Fred Taral, was the last TO ex-
planned the situation. He is humorst and
looks upon the bright side OF life II think
the public gets the money" no said with
the ear estness of a lawyer who hes bad
case and Is trying to mesmerize the jury.
"First the association has to lease It's
grounds from one citizen, the pool room
keeper in town leases his rooms from
another and toe public al large come down
here and charge upon the pool boxes. But Sc
riously. think it's an almost even dis,ribu-
ton, The money IS spent and every body,
including tue public, gets part Of II"
Further inquiry in other quarters failed
10 throw any light upon the enigma, and
the question, "Where does the money goP
| still remains unanswered.
