HANDICAP ENTRIES CLOSED.
Fields for the 1908 Races Will Sur
pass All Previous Records.

The horses who will fight for the big run
ming events Of the year, the Brooklyn, Sub
urban and Brighton handicaps, are now all
entered. At midnight the list closed with
the secretary Of the jockey club in New
York. While the figures have not yet been
announced, 1t is said that the fields for the
1903 races will surpass all previous records.
The three big races represent the prin-
cipal events Of the Coney Island Jockey
Club, the Brooklyn Jockey Club and the
Brighton Beach Racing Association. Each
of them will be worth about 1900. This
sum Is made up of the entry fees and the
$1,000 added by each Of the associations.
The exact number of the nominations
cannot be known for several days. There
Is always a rush Of late entries. These are
due to the desire Of the thrifty to avoid
forfeiting the entrance fee in the event Of
any accident. Almost a month must pass
before the weights of the handicaps are
ready. 1t. is generally agreed that the
honor Of carrying top weight will fall to
Hermis. owned by L. V. Bell and trained
by J. H. Mccormick. The same owner also
has Colonel Bill and francesca. two horses
who are not likely to pass the Handicapped
unscathed.
Besides the three main events there are
list, including the June, worth $4,000;
Coney Island handicap, Sheepshead handi-
cap, Long Island handicap, Advance
Equality, Thistle. Swift, Spindrift. Double
Event, Zephyr, Spring, Vernal, Great Trial
stakes Flight, September, Autumn, Flat
bush, Great Eastern, Standard, Brookdale,
Parkway, Myrtle and Patchogue stakes.

with the secretary there may be some I'M

NEW ORLEANS RACES.
Three Favorites Split the Card Yester
day,

Three favorites, two second choices and
third pick split up the races between them
yesterday afternoon at New Orleans. The
successful favorites were Thane, Peat and
Rankin.
Jockey Hicks, whose license was revoked
by the stewards Of the Crescent City Jockey
Club two weeks ago on account of a sus-
picious-looking ride on the filly Moabina,
was reinstated at New Orleans yes
terday afternoon. 1t is said the boy
confessed that he pulled the filly for
the sum Of $500, which was offered by
a firm Of bookmakers. Because Of this
confession 1t is alleged that the boy re-
ceived immunity from further punishment.
City politics also plays a part In the REIN
statement. When the stewards announced
that they had relented toward Hicks, they
also recommended to the track officials
that Thomas Hatfield the senior partner OF
the former racing firm Of Hatfield & Own
by, be excluded from the grounds. Hat
fields name was mixed up in the scandal
connected with Moabina's running. and he
was charged several times with giving or
ders to Hicks that caused the boy to ride
poor races.
As a result Of the charges preferred
against Jockey Landry by E. X. Wheeler.
owner Of Belvino, the stewards ordered the
rider not to accept further mounts. and
denied him further privileges OF the course
until his case was thoroughly investigated.
Landry denies that ne deliberately rode the
horse poorly. and lays the blame for his de-
feat on his bad racing condition. He speaks
bitterly about the action Of the stewards.
as he claims to have standing offer for
his services next season from B. F. Clyde,
the wealthy shipowner and proprietor OF
the Goughacre stables, at a salary Of $12-
900.
Sam Hildreth was so favorably impressed
with Jockey Creamers ability in the saddle

NO EASTERN GAMES.
Western Foot Ball Teams Can't Come
East on Account of Heavy Schedules.


Coach Stage has returned to Chicago
from his holiday trip to the Carolinas. fresh
for the winter campaign in the many indoor
track meets the University Of Chicago ath-
letes have on their program.
Chicago's coach threw cold water upon
the hopes Of many western athletes and
followers Of foot ball by saying there was
very little probability Of a game between
Chicago and Yale next autumn. He de-
clared he had not been near Yale on his
eastern trip, and that he had not even
entered into negotiations with Yale or any
eastern college for foot ball game.
Stage was then told that Walter Camp
had said a few days ago that in his opinion
there never would come time when regu-
lar games would be played between eastern
and western elevens, mainly because Of op-
position on the part of the faculties in in
situations both east and west. The Chicago
director was much interested when he
heard that Camp had also declared himself
east and the west.
II do not agree with the opinion in re-
gard to the faculties said Stage. II think
that would not stand In the way at all, at
least in the west. You will remember that
western crews go east to take part in the
college boat races. and are gone for a
period of two weeks or So l fail to see
why foot bali team could not spend three
or four days on trip.
"No, the trouble Is right here. The east
erners do not want to play western teams.
They are just like the English athletes
were few years ago. Engl!shmen thought
Americans were away behind in athletics,
and were only convinced of their erroneous
judgment after they had been beaten few
times. 1t Is only recently that the English
have sent athletes to compete in America
Just so, the eastern people are willing to
play teams from the west if the latter will
go east, but they do not wish to arrange
return games. Chicago will have too heavy
a schedule next autumn to play an eastern
team"

lions had not been broken off altogether

nature Of the reply.

x-RAY ON KEELER'S ARM.
Examination Shows That There is No
Fracture.

Willie Keller, the famous right fielder,
underwent an X-ray examination yesterday
afternoon at St. Mary's Hospital. Brooklyn,
to. ascertain the extent of the injury to
his left ARM which he sustained tn fall
from a carriage at San Francisco several
weeks ago. It was at first thought that
there had been a fracture. but the examina-
ton. according to DR.. Wuest. shows that
there was no fracture, and that the injury
will not in any way interfere with Keeler's
ball playing when the season opens.
DR.. Charles Wuest gave as his opinion
that the collar bone had been dislocated at
the shoulder joint. but had since slipped
back to its proper place. The soreness, he
said, would pass away in time. Dr. Wuest
was assisted in the examination by DR.:
John Lee, and the physicians were well
pleased with the result.
Immediately after the examination 1t was
decided to have the bandages removed from
KeeIer's injured arm. He will begin to use
the injured member gradually from now
on. and he expects that 1t will have come
around into shape to permit him to get into
the game when the proper time arrives
Keller was more than pleased when in
formed that there was no fracture. he mad
anticipated some trouble in getting the arm
in shape. as 1t has caused him much pain

tunity.
