STOCKTON, Sept. Is. - The opening
day of the racing under the auspices Of
the Stockton Driving Club brought out
what was without doubt the largest in
itial day crowd ever at the local park.
The betting was light and there is ev-
cry indication that it will not improve
in the books.
The track was very fast, and the
weather could not have been better for
the horses. Three favorites were first
to the wire. but only one of them was
heavily played, and the books prob
ably lost more money on the victory of
the sprinter New Moon, in ths seven
furlongs dash, than in the other two
events.
Daedalion won the 2:30 pace off the
reel, finishing each heat under a strong
pull, with plenty to spare. Goldy,
with Ed. Lafferty up, kept after the
winner, but could not force him to a
break The betting on the first heat
opened with Daedalion favorite at 10
to l for the field, but before the horses
were given the word it was 10 to 10.
The books posted the following odds:
Daedalion to 5, Gaff Topsail and
Goldy each and Clipper even money.
The exhibits in the Agricultural Pa
vilion are all in place, and never before
in the history of the building has there
been such elaborate displays or so
many of them. A splendid program
has been arranged for each evening.
The racing card at the track to-mor-
row is a strong one of three harness
events, the PIP trot, 2:16 pace, and a
match race in addition to two dashes,
a five furlong and a seven furlong.

NEW YORK, Sept. 1S - The Mon
arch stakes for 3-year-olds was the
feature on the card at Gravesend to-
day Only four accepted the issue,
but good race resulted. Spirituelle
was made equal favorite with Marti-
mas, while Mcleod of Dare also had
some following. The first two raced
neck and neck around the near turn
and up the back stretch, first one then
the other showing in front. Maher
rated Mcleod of Dare along a. length
and a half behind. He made his run
as they rounded into the stretch, and
quickly moved up to the leaders. Spir-
ituelle had Martimas beaten at this
point, but did not have enough left to
stand the second challenge, and Mcleod
of Dare won, driving, by a length, with
Martimas third, three lengths behind
