OFFICIALS WARN
THE LEASHMEN

The governing body of coursing on
this coast has found ii necessary to
warn intending purchasers of grey
hounds to make proper Investigations
as to the standing of hounds before
paying for them. There have been sew
eral instances. recently where there
were various penalties attached to pur-
chased hounds which had to be settled
before the dogs could be entered in
stakes. The California Coursing Com
mittee acts as clearing house in this
connection, and can always inform in
tending purchasers as to the standing
of a greyhound.
The officials of the California Cours-
ing Committee at their meeting on
Tuesday night sustained the action of
the stewards of Ingleside Park in ruling
off NJ. Senderman and the greyhound
Comique. 1t was recommended, how
ever, that Senderman apply to the In
gleside officials for a full investigation,
as the committee was impressed by his
protestations of innocence
Upon the recommendation of the In
gleside Park stewards the trainers IL
cense held by John Conboy was re-
voked. He trains for Eugene Geary,
and was charged with using insulting
language on the field to Judge Tierney.
In an interview in the Anaconda
Standard Messrs. Blake and Smith both
speak highly of the treatment accord
ed them here. They are particularly
enthusiastic over the work of Judge
Reilly. They were more than satisfied
with the showing their dogs made
against the California cracks, and were
congratulated on all sides on Northern
Express victory in the Inaugural stake
at Union Park.
There were sixty-nine greyhound reg
istrations last month with the keeper
of the stud book. This is the largest
number in any one month for a year
The running of the Belle Brandon cup
which created interest in the young
dogs, is thought to be responsible for
the increased number.
First payments of s. so on the Cali
stake will be run in September.
DR.. Q. Van Hummel. who has been
a prominent figure in American cours-
ing for forty years, mas announced his
retirement from the sport.

the Montana Coursing Club last year
for fighting, has been reinstated.
