eastern representation will be much better
than the past, because the metropolitan
owners are beginning to understand that
the meetings are first class.
Good Climate for Horses
THAT the climate is beneficial for
horses is shown by the fact that so many
Buffalo horses go to New York and win
good races at the fall meetings. Western
owners are also likely to enter heavily,
because OF the unsettled condition of af-
rairs in the west. The Jockey club rec
ognizes only rulings for fraud and there
fore the so-called outlaw rules will not
hold good We should attract the best
horses from both factions
According to the stake lists now being
arranged. about $50. 900 will be distributed
al Kenilworth park during the five weeks
meeting. There will be sixteen stake
events. The principal race will be the
Buffalo Derby, which. IL is expected will
have a value OF about $4,000. The Serial
handicap, which proved very successful
last year, viii be retained and steeple-
chasing viii be made more OF a feature
than in the past Probably four stakes

1t is not known who will be designated
starter at the meeting. Mars Cassidy oc-
cupied the position last year, but he will
ofiiciate on the metropolitan circuit this
season, thus neceSsitating the appoint
ment OF successor at Buffalo. 1t Is I'm
derstod that Joseph Murphy and Francis
Nelson viii act presiding judge and
steward respectively. Mr.. Murphy's con-
citation calls for him to act as starter
when necessary, but the suggestion that
ne act in that capacity at Kenilworth is
not being seriously considered.

Special Cable to The Globe
LONDON, March 1S.-The price of
Moifaa for the Grand National has
fallen as though his purchase by the
king had liberated him from some ma
hgnant influence. There is not the
slightest reason for supposing any
thing OF the kind, and the rush to get
on which followed the announce
ment of his sale only illustrates afresh
the enthusiasm of the public for the
purple and gold" Moifaa has arrived
at Newmarket, where he is to complete
his preparation under the charge of
the kings trainer. That he will be

same the mere transfer cannot have
improved his prospects so enormously
as to justify the sudden reduction of
his price by nearly so per cent.
Commenting on this subject the
Field says: There are always many
suspicious persons who imagine they
can see toadyism and collision in
every royal victory; but the very OPP
poslte is the case in reality. His mai
esty throughout his racing career has
had to fight as hard for success as the
humblest commoner among his sub
Jects. On one occasion, no doubt an
important winner in the royal livery
should by rights have been disquali-
fed, the rules OF racing having been
fiagrantly transgressed by the Jockey,
but from a mistaken sense of the "di-
vine right of kings" even when they
are only heirs apparent, the owner Of
the second horse refused to object.
Everything in sporting circles known
about the king goes to oppose the idea
that loyalty of this description would
find favor in his eyes. There will be
the same strenuous effort to beat Moi
faa as there would have been had he
remained Mr.. Coland's property"

Special Cable to The Globe
LONDON, March 1S.-That 1905 will
be great year for strenuous cyclists
unaided by any artificial help in the
way of pacing a specially prepared

racing at both long and short distances
has lost the hold that it had on the
public, but the reasons are not far to
seek. In short distance races, crawl
ing and "headwork" are to blame
English people prefer to see "the race
go to the fleet" and to see men on
cycles almost standing still in their
position sayors more of a circus per-
formance than an athletic test
The "headwork'' of which so much is
heard, Is also unappreciated even il
understood, by the great British public
Unfortunately this ''headwork" is often
only another name for foul riding, and
there is no gaipsaying the fact that
men are often 'pocketed" and "cut in. -

No wonder that the lockers on after
