A RACE TRACK WAR.
Clashing of Dates Between Gutteuburg and
Westchester.


The Hudson County Jockey Club does not
seem satisfied with the short season it will be
allowed according to the new racing laws in
New Jersey, and intends to oppose the spring
meetings at Morris Park and Sheepshead Bay
1t has already issued badges of admission
good for summer meeting, which commences
May 80. 1898" This meeting will run up to
and include July 4.
President Walbaum Of the Hudson County
Jockey Club has not gotten over the little Incl
dent that occurred in the betting ring last sum
mer at Sheepshead Bay when Joevendig drew a
pistol and tried to shoot him. Because Nendig
apologized he was reinstated by the Jockey
club. which suspended both men, but Walbaum
Is still denied the privilege of making books on
the Coney Island Jockey Clubs grounds.
Mr.. Walbaum at the time declared Gutten-
burg would race IN opposition TO Sheepshead
Bay. but the threat was not put into execution
Now that their racing season has been shortened
three months by the racing laws Guttenburg
and President Walbaum think they have better
cause for opposing the summer tracks, and in
tend doing
They will throw open their tracks Saturday
for one week, when they will close again until
the BROOKLYN Jockev Club spring meeting Is at
an end. which will be Tuesday. Nav 80 Then
Guttenburg will reopen for its great summer

will be carried out during the fail meeting at
Morris Park and Sheepshead Bav.

public. ana no entrance fee will be charged the
horsemen to the races. They may also follow
the example of a western track and supply
their patrons with free Refreshments. Books
will be made on all foreign races. even those in
the far west, where some of the Guttenburgers
are now racing their horses Several book
makers have already applied for privileges of
making books on outside races. and are willing
TO pay $500 dsv for it.
1t is claimed there are 5000 persons who
will be daily visitors at the track with the in
ducements that will be thrown out to them,
and the betting on the local races alone will
repay them for the outlay. Then the Glou-

Yale Law School was played yesterday after
noon at the grounds of the Y. NJ c. A.. and re-
suited in another victory for the Yale bows
Thus far they have had an unbrokea string of
winnings. The public had evidently all gone
to the professional game. for outside OF the
students of the college there were but few per-
sons present.
The final score was 6 to in the visitors
favor. but this does not entirely represent the
interestingly close battle. The bows from New
Haven seemed more able TO find the ball than
the locals, but outside or this the fielding was
of equal merit. Ten hits were made OF of
Carmody. bat despite this he played good
game. Only four hits were made on Lander
Farrell played the star game for the visitors.
The only run made ~ Georgetown was in the
seventh inning. Carton was hi: by a pitched
ball. aud a moment later he had crossed the
plate on Murphys fine double. The first score
for Yale was in the first inning. when % Neil
touched no Carmody for a homer. In the third
they added two more on two hits and force.
and in the sixth placed two more to their credit,
and closed with auo her run in the eighth.
