GONE TO CONSULT VANDERBILT.
Speculation as to the Outcome in
Affecting coney Island Jockey
Club.

NEW YORK, Nov. 14.-J. G. X.
Lawrence, president of the Coney
Island Jockey club, has just sailed
for England. Racing men, who
learned OF his sudden departure,
were unanimous in thinking he
had been summoned to consult
with W. X. Vanderbilt regarding
the future policy Of the Coney
Island Jockey club and the out
look for racing in this state next
season. The crisis in racing af-
fairs, foreshadowed by the adop-
ton at the polls OF the constitu-
tional amendment prohibiting pool
selling and bookmaking, has placed
Mr.. Vanderbilt's large investments
in] the Sheepshead bay course
in jeopardy and turfmen believe
he is anxious to obtain a full re-
port on the situation at first hand.
"Mr. Lawrence's departure" said
the owner of a we'll known racing
stable, "explains the reason Of the
repeated meetings Of the Coney Is
land Jockey club and the jockey
club stewards last week. He was
at the jockey club meeting on Sat
urday morning and the Coney Is
land club meeting on We'd
nesday and knows thoroughly
the opinions he desires of the
racing leaders. To me 1t looks
as though the Coney Island club
was about to make their threatened
break from the Jockey club and
inaugurate some scheme that VIII
allow it to keep on as an indepen-
dent venture or it may be that Mr..
Vanderbilt intends to draw out
from the Coney Island club. That
the outcome Of the meeting will be
of great interest to horse racing
people in this state, l do not doubt"
Mr.. Lawrence is a well known
member of the Madison Square
Garden horse show association.

zIMMERMANN's ROAD CHUM.
He Chins It and Says Zim. Will not
Start at Madison Square.

New YORK, Nov. III. NJ. Irwin,
who accompanied Zimmerman, the
champion bicycle rider, over a good
part OF the world, has been inter-
viewed about plans for the future.
He said: ayes, 1 accompanied Tim.
norman upon his travels, and l tell
you we had a lively time Juggling
about so many bicycles, trunks and
sachels. AS for Zimmerman retir-
ing from the track 1 take no stock
in such yarn. AS long as he is
Zimmerman he will race, and when
he retires it will be when he feels
his physical powers giving away.
"How much did Zimmerman
make on his trip"
"That l cannot say, although he
had the most flattering guarantees.
1 should say he cleared between
$4,000 or $4,000"
"How does cycling on the other
side compare with this portion of
the country~
"Well, all in all, cycling is fur
ther advanced there than it is here.
Great crowds turn out at the races
and the liveliest interest is mani
tested in the contest. Zim was
treated splendidly wherever we
went, and when we started in a
race it was always Zim first with
the others simply fighting for
second place. The tracks there are
different from ours, and are built
more from a spectators stand point
than those of this country. The
tracks are built OF cement and gen.
orally one-fifth of a mile in dis
tance, so arranged that all parts OF
the races are in full view Of the
spectators.
Zimmerman, / am convinced
will not start in the "a hour con-
test at the coming tournament at
the Madison Square garden. 1t
would be foolish of him to think of
such thing.

GROWERS CURRENCY SCHEME
Having Destroyed Confidence by
Monkeying With Tariff He
Will Attack the Cur

rency.
NEW YORK, Nov. l4.-1t Is re-
ported here that the president is
considering the idea OF submitting
to Congress a plan for currency
reform. He believes that the cur
rency system is inherently vicious,
that it it is responsible for finan-
cial ills, which must continue so
long as it is maintained.
Satisfied with this diagnosis, he
will undoubtedly prescribe a reme-
dy calculated to give the finances
permanent health, believing, pos.
sibly, that this can be done only
by supplanting the present
system. The subject will be
the dominant feature in his
message to Congress in December.
1t is said that he will favor many
changes made by the Bankers Ma.
tional convention at Baltimore in
September. What Is known as the
Baltimore plan adopted at that
convention appealed to the presi-
dent as having features Of I'M
doubted merit. He obtained a
copy of the plan and since that
time he has been studying and
working on the subject. Briefly
stated, the Baltimore plan pro-
vid es for a guarantee fund obtained
by levying a small tax upon all Of
the banks. This fund is to be
used to pay the notes Of banks
which become insolveut. Since it
was whispered among financiers
that the president was preparing
to address Congress upon the cur
rency system, so many suggestions
have reached him that he thought
it we'll to gather some expert optn-
ion among bankers whom he could
not personally consult. The present
visit OF VIM. E. Curtis, assistant
secretary Of the treasury TO this
city, is understood to be for the
purpose of sounding financial Opin-
ion here upon the general subject.
While Mr.. Curtis is in New York
Assistant Treasurer Conrad Jor-
dan is in Washington. He is urg-
ing upon the president to recon-.
mend to Congress the appointment
of a currency commission, non.
partisan in character and COM
posed of representative men OF all
sections, which shall consider the
currency question in its vario us
bearings and report system of
reform to Congress.
