RACE TRACK. SHEEPSHEAD BAY,
Aug. @.-The talent came down to-day
In light feather. They had carefully
perused the card and were OF the opin-
ion that the races were easy to pick.
An extra roll of money was brought
along to plunge on the short but sure
ones, and all preparations for slaugh-
ter of the bookies.
Nottingham was the first to receive
the attention Of the talent, and they put
good-sized bets down on him. He won
galloping. with Griffin looking over his
shoulder at the others. Melba. with
Soup Perkins in the saddle. made a
determined bid: but, good a fnisher as
Soup Is, he could never get the filly
neck in front Of the second choice,
Torchbearer.
Fortune favored the talent in the Sec
ond race also. for they bet on Hugh
Penny as though II. was all over but the
galloPed home winner just as easily
as did Nottingham. Black Hawk, a Is
to l chance, beat Frank r. HART, who
was quoted at l60 to 1 In the betting, for
the place.

we should have been notified OF It by
Nick Young, Of the National League, ,

WILD RUSH
OF BROKERS'.
Hundreds Of Them Swarm
About the Doors Of the

FIVE THOUSAND WITHDRAWALS
Remarkable Business Oh the First
Day Under the New
Tariff Law.
MANY INTRICATE QUESTIONS.
Big Importing Houses Repres ented
and Lawsuits Threat,
ened.
MANY INTRICATE QUESTIONS.

An unprecedented rush or brokers,
clamoring for the withdrawal of bonded
goods under the ruling of Secretary
Carlisle. occurred at o'clock this morn
ing when the Custom-House opened for
its first days business under the new
Tariff law.
Deputy Collector Charles A. King, of
the Third Division, is in charge of all
Withdrawals and bonded warehouse
goods. and he and his assistant, Mr..
Grant. together with a force of fifteen
clerks. were kept extremely busy.
Several hundred brokers crowded into
tine withdrawal room, and Fred Burns,
the official announcer. whose deep,
sonorous voice could be heard all over
the old building, made all the official
announcements and told the strug-
Cling crowd to get into line" Finally
the brokers settled down to business
and presented their papers to the clerks.
receiving In return official orders for
the removal Of goods from the bonded
warehouses;. Under the, new law all
the brokers were required to have IL
censes
The Withdrawals included various
classes OF goods. upon which there was
new act. and a deposit duty was taken
averaging about so per cent. subject to
REIMBURSEMENT of the duty after inves-
tigation.,
There were over Ave thousand with
drawals to-day subject to these condi-
tons. Under the old or Mckinley law, the
withdrawals were $50 or 200 q day. The
immense rush of to-day may therefore
be readily appreciated upon comparison.
The brokers employed many extra
clerks to do their business.
Claim lawyers were also on hand by
the score. many of them ready TO take
advantage of that .'semicolon" in the
new act which affects importers of
diamonds.
A circular was posted early in the
morning by Mr.. King. showing the
class of goods for withdrawal from bond
under Secretary Carlisle's decision, and
act, and also, the new law. 1t was
upon these goods that the deposit duty
was taken, subject to reimbursement
