The San Francisco call., 1898-03-02

track on Monday are apt to cause some serious complications in the director ate of the Pacific Coast Jockey Clup ere the spring flowers bloom. For some time it has been whispered that the officers and directors of the local track were not the happy family peo- nIe of the outer world supposed. Rac- ing folks from the East say Ed Cor uean hung his old motto of Rule or ruin" on the walls of the club office ln the Palace Hotel, and that now the foreshadowed storm is brewing.
 When S. N Androus. president Of the club. offered the suggestion to the Master of Hawthorne on Monday, ac- cordfng to current rumor, thata harrow might prove beneficial to the surface of the track and the latter in an angry mood told him to attend to his own business, it is just possible the Dig Chicago horseman overplayed hls hand At any rate, the incident is the theme most discussed in turfdom at present.
 Neither of the principals in the little affair could be seen last evening, but w. B. Sink, a prominent horse owner and one of the largest stockholders in the Ingleside Association, very reluct- antly consented to be interviewed on the internal djssensions existing in the club management.
 = Said MT. Sink: "In the first place you may say that I will sell all of my horses. Two are already as good as sold, and the others will go as soon as purchasers can be found. I have al- ways paid my trainers salaries and 1ockey fees, but when it comes to a stage when I cannot start my horses in the races In which they are entered it is time a man got out of the busi- ness. As the sport is now conducted at Ingleside it is nothing more than a skin game " ,'-.
 When questioned as to what treat nent brought him to this determina- tion when he was apparently infatu- ated with the game Mir. Sink con tinued:
 My horse AlVarado is a hard animal to get away from the post. and I in formed Secretary Green that it was said that starting horse: over the hurdles improved the animals disposi- tion and asked him whether If Ava rado were entered In a jumping race he would be allowed to start. and he answered in the, affirmative. On Sat urday last AIvaEado was entered in the hurdle event. 3In the morning of that day he worked through the stretch in 25 seconds, which fast work was. ob served by Ed Corrigan. A little later the secretary received word by tele- phone from Corrigan to scratch Ava rado. On going to the track my train CT asked me if I had scratched the t-;.- O of MT. Green the reason, he said . Well, MT. CofTigan ordered him scratched ' .. Are there other reasons for your withdrawal from the turf?'' was asked.
 Yes, there are,' replied MT. Sink. T consider that many races are made up for Corrigans horses or his friends, and on other occasions horses are cratched to make safe betting propositions. Take the last race yesterday, for in- stance. Do you suppose that race would have gone through had it not looked a certainty for Geyser, with three horses going to the post, one of them 250 to 1 shot?"
 MT. Sink then said that he thought he had been wronged all through the meeting, and intimated that he had heard that MT. Corrigan had been heard to say that none of Sinks horses would ever win a race if he could pre- vent it by scratching out" He dated the antipathy of the Hawthorne turf man toward himself from time some two years back when he gave a note given by Corrigan to bank for collec- tion- Tt was paid" said MT. Sink, ''but I lost his friendship"
 The injured stockholder then went on to relate what he considers the fallacies of the Western Turf Congress Now said MT. Sink. what becomes of this S25 that is required of trainers for a license before they can start horse at Ingleside? What becomes of the hundreds of dollars collected from jockeys for fines? It is sent on to Latonia and that is the last heard of it. There was no reason why Ingleside should have been placed under the Jurisdiction of the Turf Congress. The California Jockey Club races under its own rules, and the sport at Emery vile Is good enough to suit the most fastidious''
 MT. Sink then said: T guess I have said too much already, but as long as l nave consented to be interviewed you can say that If President Androus Vice President Crocker and the other officers of the club allow Corrigan to act in the role of dictator, running things to suit himself, after the first of May my stock will be for sale ir blocks from five shares to six hundred shares at par valuation.
 'If Corrigan is deposed, I will retain 1t and consider it money well invested There is no need of talk about adverse legislation: the present management will kill off the sport soon enough Friends in the East tell me racing vii never be allowed in Cook County, Hi. nois, as long as Corrigan is financially interested in the tracks. He is said tt owe money on unpaid markers in tn, betting rings here" continued MT Sink, but of this I know nothing"
