MONMOUTH'S DAILY FARCE.
WHAT THEY CALL RACING DOWN THERE.
ONLY THREE STARTERS IN FOUR OUT OF SIX

EUKLESOCES OF RACES.
-Four OF the six so-called races decided at Mon
mouth yesterday had only ,hrce starters In each.
As well-known owner put 1t. 1t was "cinch racing
where everybody got share of the purse Tie
two remaining affairs were Of substantial
proportions. the field for one OF them numbering
s1x and the other ten. The attendance was very
light The wall of the bookmaktrs on account OF
scanty betting was long and loud. Some improve
ment must be shown soon there will be
score Of the boobies In line. Threehorse races will
not enable them to do business u paying basis.
The opening contest by Banquet. He
the fav0rite, yet to 10 could always be had
against him. He in desperate drive, Taral
yiding him hard for the last quarter. Tie finish
was question OF gamencss. and the old horse stood
the test BEST
The second race introduced 70 the Fast the cOors

closing fast. lie will be a contender for Junior
Championship honors Oh Tuesday next.
Correction looks better than she has looked for
long time. She the favorlte for the fourth race
and easily. mahiog all the running under pull
The time, 50 "a. very fast considering the
condition Of the track.
Patrician had q big advantage in the weights for
the fifth race. and this gave him the race The good
thing from Brighton. Sir Height was heavily played
but finished last.
The last race was thought to lie between Hammie
and Integrity and both plunged on Treasure.
the only other starter, was 10 To chance. yet he
took first money. His victory brought soace 10 the
rig as few Thought he had possibility Of success
Tho fact that Tara rode Banquet, stonenell and
Fairy started a rumor that Lambey had left the
employ of NJ r. Dwycr Mr.. Dwyer denied the
report, and Lambley rode Hammie.
some men are so obtuse that they cannot under
stand a joke. W. Livingston IIamcrsley was merriy
testing with some friends at Monmouth day or TWO
ago. when some asked him in banterng way
II he intended to his colt War Lord to win on
Saturday. Mr.. Hancrsley in a jocosc manner, replied
that he would pull War Lord If the betting was NOT
satisfactory. This was mere chaf. OF conrse' WIN
ont the slightest seriousness in it. And yet som"
person, incapable OF compromising a jest, mas put
in cold print the statement that Mr.. Hamersley In
tends TO pull War Lord saturday If the betting
does not suit him. Mr. Hamersley always runs his
horses to win, and his remark was simply humorous
raillery. For any to take 1t seriously was pre-
posterous absurdity.
The official organ OF the Board of Control insinu-
sted on Tuesday morning that there was something
suspicious in the riding of Arab by Goodale OH Mon
day. So far known, the judges at Monmouth have
taken no action In the as yet, nor mas the

Committee at Monmouth. and must IN Intuition OF
canthardes now be mbbed in large quantities In order

The New-Yort Evening Post" expressed the opinion
of the respectable newspapers OF America when II
said edtorally yesterday: "All testimony goes TO
show that in the OF the attendance and the
kind of sport conducted there Monmouth Park has
this wear descended almost the level OF Gutenberg
