W. o'Brion Macdonough. the young Cnlifol

style.
The weather. which was cool and cloudy
drew about 5000 persons to the splendid
course at Westchester. and the sport was live
ly enough to keep everybody on the alert al
day. Bets were declared of by the judges or
| the sixth race because Circular carried five
pounds more than the weight printed opposite
his name on the programme. This was In
violation OF recent rule OF the Board OF Con-
troll. which is printed prominently on the card
OF the day. 1t reads: When the numbers OF
| oil the horses starting for race. with the
names Of their jockeys. havo been exhibited
| officially. all bets stand"
The judges, seeking only to protect the rae
ing public. overlooked this rule and sent
word into the ring that bets were off, and that
twenty minutes would be allowed for a new
book. Mr. John A. Morris. Mr.. J. g. X. Laurence.
