There is still a feeling of uncertainty
among the men who have the best in
terests of the turf at heart says the
San Francisco Chronicle of Saturday.
The talk about a third race track has
caused a certain amount of alarm and
there are many shrewd judges who pre-
dict that the end of racing in California
is not far distant.
The quarrel of A. r. Spreckles with his
associates is generally deplored. but it
Is hoped that no men interested in the
turf Will do anything to jeopardize and
injure the sport in California, as 1t will
certainly kill off the breeding industry
The fact that Henry ]. Crocker has
stood by the present shareholders of the
Pacific Coast Jockey club means a
whole lot at this critical period in its
history There is every reason to be-
lieve that the Pacific Coast Jockey club
Will be thoroughly reorganized before
next season. There are several inn
provements that could be made with
great benefit to the race-going public
Volume XII of the year book, issued
the past week from the Office of Secre-
tary j. II. Steiner. of the American
Trotting Register association, is an ex-
act counterpart of the two preceding
volumes both as to size and in the gen.
eral arrangement. Tt contains a few
less pages than Volume XI. as that vol
ume contained a few less than its prede-
cessor. The additions to the list of 230
trotters for 1896 numbers 1916, which
shows something of a falling off from the
preceding year when there were 1850
new trotters. and even greater disparity
with the figures of 1894, when there were
1887 trotters who managed to stay in
side the 2:30 line for the first time. The
PAGERS have held their own gallantly in
spite of the fact that last year was
race campaign rather than one of on
slaughts against the watch The pac-
ers number SAT who took records of 2:25
and better for the first time, which is
but two behind the showing for the
preceding year and is much in advance
of the showing for 1894. when but 735
new names were added to the standard
pacing division. There are now 12,945
trotters and 1902 PAGERS with accredited
standard records. The new year book
shows that there was a slight falling off
in the number of 2:15 performers for
last year from the year before. There
were six less additions TO the 2:15 list
in 1896 than in 1895. and this is appar-
emily due to the weakness of the fast
trotters. Last year furnished but 81
new 2:15 trotters, while the year pre-
vious had rolled mp total of ia The
PAGERS, however. have marched stead
lily on. In 1894 they furnished $50 ad-
dltions to the 2:f5 list. in 1895 the figures
were increased to 179 and last year gave
203. There are now 46S trotters and 179
PAGERS with accredited records of 2:15

the closing feature at each performance
of the circus.
a round dozen fast riders will be Sc
cured TO do the racing. local speed mer-
chants also being allowed to compete for
liberal cash prizes in every town visited

The management are confident that
the novelty of a circus, menagerie and
bicycle race meet. all in one, will prove
a great success financially, as 1t doubt
less will.
This new departure from all the tradi-
tions of eircusdom was brought about by
Adam Forepaugh getting touch of the
racing fever himself. This young man is
a character. He has an income of about
100000 a year, and is a typical circus
man. Instead of a necktie, he wears a
collar button with diamond in it as big
as a walnut. 1t weighs 80 carats and
cost a handsome fortune.
