Washington Park Events Will Not

CHICAGO, Oct. 14.-The announcement
of the Washington Park Club, that it will
hold no more race meetings, does not mean
that there will be no more racing on the
track. but simply that the club will not as
sumo control of racing. The organization
has always been as much of a social as a
racing coterie, and the member of the
club were socially embarrassed and per-
sonaly annoyed by the indictment found
against the club officials last summer, on
the ground that the raceirack was a COM
mon nuisance. There was also a strong
feeling among portion of the club against
President Wheeler. The sentiment had
some influence on the action of the club
last night. 1t thought President Wheeler
extravagant. The expenses of the race
track this season were some $55, 900, and 1t
is said by the anti W heller party that it
was far too much. The announcement of
the association was timely. in a racing
way. Four stakes for 1895 and 1896 close

already been made for them. Three 1896
stakes. the American derby, with $4,000
added; the Sheridan stakes, $4,000 added,
and the revived Englewood stakes, $1,000
added, also will close tomorrow.
Inc cup mas also four classic events for
the 1895 season, closed last October, which
will aave to be abandoned. They are the
$4,000 American derby. upon whose can
didates the bookmakers are already bet
thug; the Queen Isabella stakes and the
Sheridan stakes. Although abandoned by
the Washington Park Club these three
events are not likely to be nullified.
George Y. Hankins of the Chicago Fair
Association. which operates the new Har-
lem track, said. after he had heard of the
boards action:
II shall make the Washington Park
Club an offer to take the stakes which
have closed, and are closed, off its
hands. 1t is best for Western racing that
the stakes should not die, and am willing
