MATCH RACE PLANS,
Weather Alone VIII PreUent DC
CheSney-WaterbOy Meeting.

From the attitude of those directly interested in
the running of the championship special between
Waterboy and McChesney tomorrow afternoon, It
be asserted with some assurance that the
weather alone is the only thing which can
cause a postponement of the E. E. Smathers,
the owner Of McChesney: F. NJ. Taylor. his pres
ent trainer, and Sam" Hildreth who trains the
horse in the West, all expressed themselves sat
is1ed with McChesney's condition yesterday, and
that element of uncertainty was consequently done
away with.
When the Western champion arrived at Graves
end from Chicago last Saturday he was very tired
and appeared bit drawn and tucked up. His
owner announced that unless the horse was in per-
feet condition he would not think of starting him
against Waterboy. and as result of this the
report that the race had fallen through received
good deal of credence
At the Gravesend inclosure yesterday, McChes-
ney received light work only, and, contrary to eX-
pectations, not worked out the full dis
tance. After being logged mile and half. he
breezed five furongs in 1:09. He did the half
in O:54il The impression that he would be worked
yesterday very general and almost half of the
the brick walk after the contests had been run, in
the hope Of having a look at the big chestnut son
Mr.. Smathers and Sam" Hildreth, were at the
pectantiy for something to happen, the suspicion
of the crowd became conviction. After waiting
some one to ask Mr. HiIdreth if the horse was at
trainer 3and Won't be over until tomorroW. If he
is then" After that the watchers slowly dis
persed.
Although The Rhymer from the Holly Stable.
has been added TO the championship special, 1t is
not thought his owners will him. The horse.
however, is trained by Snapper Garrison and
there some who assert that he will be started
with the idea of taking of Waterboy." Just
how he will accomplish this is not made clear. A
third horse, however. undoubtedly would be used
by both the other owners a pacemaker.
Neither McChesney nor Waterboy is pronounced
front runner, and the formers strong hold. in
fact has always been considered his finish. Who
will make the pace in only the two champions
start is still question which seems able TO
The will be the fifth the
programme and the horses will probably go To
