ON Wednesday of last week a spasn of
virtue convulsed the officials OF the Key

conducting n running meeting here. John

something is done Ia protect them, the
officials suddenly wake up, and one owner
as suspended and another receives steroe-

1t is called racing, but there is no racing
about 1t. 1t is no exaggeration to say that
eight winners out of every ten are sbooed

The spectacle of a horse starting one day
in ordinary company and finishing last and

''touts,' who prey on the trusting public
with impunity.

Media, Pa, Sept. 30.-A baseball uIn

Cincinnati, Ohio, Sept. 30.-Tbe ruling
off of Riley Grammar by the Jockey Club
stewards, and virtually so Of VIII Wallace,
owner OF The Winner and Others now run
nlng at Oakley, was the food for gossip
among the owners and trainers here today.
VIII Wallace. when interviewed, stated
that the trouble between him and the stew
ards was the running of The Winner.
Il had made arrangements to ship my
stable from Sheepshead Bay to Oakley,
when found out that several stake horses
had gone auiss and that l had a good
chance of winning an event with The Win
ner, and shipping the balance. i kept the
colt over and prepared him for the stake,
and, knowing the colt to he a bit short,
/ gave him some good, strong work
"On the Thursday previous to the Sat.
urday on which the stake was to be run
entered him in an overnight affair to see
how well he could go. on seeing the lot
entered against him thought l would win

Surprise.
New York, Sept. 3U.-The results of the
investigation conducted By the Jockey Club
stewards is something of a disappointment.
The mountain seems TO have laborcd and
the birth is a mouse. According 10 their
published decision the stewards have found
only violation uf Rule / 90, which prohibits
the giving OF presents to jockeys and the
acceptance by them OF the same. For this
offense Riley Grammar is ruled off: Jockey
Martin is suspended: Jockey Coyiie' license
is revoked, and Fred Taral is repriEande,l.

until he can make certain explanations Of
certain practices. DR.. A Burrow, Il drug

SHOWS conccrni:ig corrupt charges which he

The ruling off of Grammar and Bur
rows is a surprise, although Grannan was
suspected OF having been concerned in a
consultation. Wallace was also believed
to have been member.
That the Jockey Club has lahored long
AID faithfully in the Investigation cannot
be doubted. An enormous lot OF testimony
was taken, and the abstracts which We're
furnished to Mr.. Belmont on his return
from Europe amounted to more than forty
eight typew ritten pages.
II is conceded that all tins testimony
has not been taken on the subject Of
jockeys receiving presents, and the state
meut that charges of corrupt practices are

Commission, leads one TO believe that the

1t is understood that many of the impor

the championship was awarded to the Sham

Monday evening, October !. the authors
have produced, on the founda tions OF a
single story, play which critics cuncede
is one OF the trueSt yet written Of American
life. The scene OF action Is found among
the hill folks or Tennessee, u people whose
lives and loves and customs ana passions
nave ever been prolific OF material for
relation by pen and act.
An Innocent Sinner is a study of char
acter among them, and each or The fifteen
personages in it is strongly drawn tyne.
Quaint pits OF their life, with their droll
philosophy and wit, their noueiy amer of
existence, surround story that teens
with passion and pathos, and is" full OF
climax. IL turns on the strange influence
exerted over Hinda, the heroine, by DIR.
Jacob, the evil spirit of the action. This
hypnotic theme is most skillfully handled
with intense dramatic effect.
Manager Tuthfll, finding in the scene of
the story unusual opportunities for scenic
display, has mounted tho piece superbly,
and the result is, that the production is a
lavish and beautiful one. In the support

Hereafter all prisoners detained at

will be served with breakfast in the
morning, before they are taken to
the police court. This is in accordance
with the law as pointed out in an
opinion rendered yesterday by Corpo-

to the request Of Jailor John Harris;
who asked for the opinion.
Heretofore it has not been customary
to give the Central station prisoners
any breakfast. They have been taken
10 the municipal court with empty
stomachs, where they are often obliged
to wait until IL O'Clock for trial, and In
case of commitment to the workhouse,
they would get nothing to eat until
they reached the institution and then
they might arrive too late for dinner
