HORsEMEN's RICH SEASON.

More Than Half Million Dollars in
 Eastern Stables.
 In no year in the present decade have
 there been on the Metropolitan racing
 circuit so many owners of horses fortu-
 nate enough to capture a fair share of the prize money as in the season which closed on election day at Aque- duct.
 From the time the early spring meet ing of the Washington Jockey club opened at Bennings, D. C., up to the l last day at Aqueduct there were dis trlbuted among the owners of horses on the eastern tracks more than $50000 in stakes and purses, and of this sum more than. one-half was distributed among the five largest winning stables.
 The balance of the money has been distributed in sums ranging from $30,- 900 down, among a large number of | smaller owners.
 Bromley & Co., the stable that won most of the money on the Pacific coast l last winter, was also the largest win ming stable in the east this year. | In all, the stables share of the money amounted to S77,S5413 of which about | $40, 900 was won by Mesmerist, who was | probably the crack two-year-old of the season. In fact, the greater part of the stables winnings was earned by it's two-year-ol for Indian Fairy, with two victories to her credit won $10,000; | Missionary, with one win, $5,000, and Windmere, by running third in the Flu fur ri cd 60 mn fn tho ct h1a'c count. The only horse of the older d- vision to substantially swell the stables winnings was Previous, whose four winning races netted $10,000.
 William c. Whitney and his racing partner, Sydney Paget, are comparative newcomers on the turf and yet they were second in the list of winning owners.
 The stable secured about $61 900, as its share of the prize money, but that sum represents only a small part of the stables expenditures during the season. MT. Whitney spent his money without stint in order to get together one of the best racing stables in America He paid fancy prices for some of the best horses In the country, and the success that his stable attain ed was noted with pleasure by those who have the best interests of the sport at heart.
 John R. and Foxhall Keene came next on the list, with about $56,000 to their joint credit. More than half of that sum represents the winnings of Charcornac in the futurity. In order to win this amount MT. Keene gave the day before the race s25,000 for Chacor- mac. He paid this sum for a colt that had won only one race, and had then beaten only an ordinary lot, but his new purchase won the big-two-year old stake of the year, and the turfman was congratulated on all sides for his pluclky and successful venture.
 John E. Madden, who rarely misses 8 season without developing one of the crack year-oldz follows the Keene stable with a balance of S50000. Da- vid Garrick won one-third of that sum for him before MT. Madden sold him l to Pierre Lorillard
 Among the other owners who won l upwards of $10,000 were Perry Belmont, | for whom Ethelbert the crack three l year-old of the season, won $26.000 of 1 the $36,000 the stable captured; G. B. | Morris, $32,0O0 Eastin & Larabee, $32,- l GOO; Harness & Brossman, whose $30,000 | portion was won by that great mare Imp J. w.
