TO CONTINUE The MEETING
RACING at the st. AsaDh Course Will
Go On All Winter.
JOCKEY CLUB SET AT NAUGHT
Secretary Mcintyre Announced Yesterday
That the Meeting Would Continue In
defnitely-Coney Island Jockey Club Re-
ported to Have Also Broken Away.

If was officially given out by Secretary Nc
Intyre yesterday that the St. Asaph meeting
would be continued indefinitely, and the an
nouncement was received with satisfaction
by the rank and file of bookmakers, horse
owners. and sports generally. This decision
is understood TO have been arrival at without
regard to the wishes of the Jockey Club, as
the stewards of the latter were to have met
last evening in New York to act on the appli-
cation for an extension of the st. Asaph meet
ing. 1t Is expected that several OF the big
stables will refrain from further racing here,
but they will not be missed.
Another and a very serious blow at the
Jockey cluD is also said to have been struck
by the Coney Island Jockey club. From
well authenticated sources it was yesterday
learned the latter club has withd avn from
the Jockey club jurisdiction and will act in
dependently of the other Metropolitan tracks
and clubs in the future. 1t looks as though
the Jockey club era is thing of the past.
There were seven races on the card yester-
day and the sport proved very enjoyable.
The weather was clear and cool, track fast
and attendance good. But three fayorites
were successful. The best finish Of the day
was in the sixth event, which Our Jack won
by a short head before Galilee. who was the
same distance in front of Ed Kearney. Cali
lee swerved slightly in turning into the
stretch which cost the race. The gentlemen s
race was very one-sided. Yancluse winning in
a walk. Summaries:
