schooling list and keep him there, but
why punish the rider? The penalty
looks unjust and excessive.
AT a meeting held by the board of
stewards Of the California Jockey Club
on Saturday evening the statement
made by Jockey Chandler that Caesar
Young asked him 10 place the mare
Eonic was heard The stewards were
unanimous in their belief that it was
merely a conspiracy On the part Of
Chandler ard his friends to break the
contract held on his services by Young,
and recommended TO the Pacific Jockey
Club that the riders license be revoked.
Jake Holman states that the reports
from St. Louis that be had signed TO
start there next summer for the new
Union Jockey Club are a bit premature.
Jake says, though. that he wrote p ].
Carmody. president Of the new turf
association. that they could have his
services for the season Of ninety days
for sIO. 600 The starter. however, stip-
ulated that he must then have until
