TO PUSH TURF REFORM.
uo>,rv ISLAND EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE
MEETS TO-DAY.
,.,, HAVE \ CONFERENCE WITH THE
STEWARDS or TIE JOCKEY cLrb
TOMORROW.


TOMORROW
oe,ing OF the Executive Committee OF the
49, =. island Jockey Club will be held at the rooms
- ,ho club to-day. Every member is expected To
=, reeent as many important matters are TO oe
,a,tnd over in regard to the obstacles in the way
- harmony and the much-;cedeG change in the
,oanagement of the turf.
Tomorrow a meeting between the Executive
Committee and the stewards of the Jockey Club
v.m be held when all the subjects that have
,veed so much delay in the formation OF the
Jockey Club are to be calmly and coohy discussed
rd an agreement reached If possible. under Willch
the Corey Island claD can join the new movement
,horebv giving il the support of the better class OF
,rceroers who believe in the methods employed
a, the MANAGEMENT Of racing at the Coney Island
Jockev Club track. The proposed changes IN the
rules are likely to be considered. so that the re-
formers have a chance TO strike sweeping blow
for reform by taking up the abominauon OF one
,wo-three betting and eliminating that breeder OF
fraud from the turf. Ii may cause loss of some
Of the "piking undcrtakerS" and their following or
..Tenderloin treasures at first but the racing
clubs are sure TO benefit by their action in the
end The kindergarten or free field with betting
attachment should be abolished. as it is an eye
sore to persons Of responsibility who say that rae
ing requires no policy attachments to increase its
popularity
Another thing that causes many owners who
win stakes great annoyance is the custom Of
entering horses under the name Of some stable.
All horses should be entered under the names Of
their owners. The only persons entitled to race
horses otherwise should be the owners OF breeding
establishments. and .they should be entered like
This The Madison stud enters Kentigerna.' No
amount OF registering will prevent fraud when I'M
scrupuOuS allowed 70 race horses under
the mask of stable name. y stringent rule
should be made that no official serving as judge.
Handicapped starter, patrol judge or any other
person associated with the management of the
races, should have any direct or indirect interest
in any horse or any breeding establishment. The
old dodge of selling the running qualities OF horses
IS so himsy that the stable boys laugh at the
sham and il is far better for all concerned 10 have
rule to prevent any cause for criticism of the
active officials This does not apply the stewards.
