AMERICAN LEAGUE STANDING.

The New York Americans had revenge on
Boston yesterday at American League Park for
their bad defeat Of the previous day by trOunc
ing the Puritans by score OF 70 0. Billy
Hogg. the Yankee twirler. applied the whitewash
brush. He was in almost perfect form and only
one hit-a single by Parent-wRs made on his
delivery. On the other hand. the Highlanders
used their sticks to advantage. knocking out
seven singles, a triple and a home run. -Four
errors also helped 20 swell the Yankees score.
Gibson, who was on the firing line for Boston
passed fve OF the Highlanders. while his running
mate, Hogg, gave only one free pass 70 first base
and hit one man. La Porte played fine game
az third base for the local team He was credited
With three put-Outs and four assists. One OF
his assists was a one-hand-p pickup that looked
good for double before he scOOped IL UP. The
play brought a loud cheer from the crowd.
The Highlanders made two fast double plays
which retired the side when &c looked as II
Boston would score. Elberfeld hit the ball on
the nose in the seventh inning for home run,
which also scored Keeler. Evans, q new UNI
pire. proved himself good official The score

making Of racing not only recreation for the puD-
lie, but a great industry representing an lnVeste4
capital OF many millions of dollars. and giving en-
ployment, steady and profitable. to a large num-
ber of men in m3ny walks Of life. How much cap
something which. because Of private sales and the
maintenance Of many private breeding establish
ments, Is not capable OF computatioE whlcn
might be accepted as authoritative, but II neceS-
sarily is large and in itself represents probably
capital than is invested by individuals In any
other form of recreation in this country.
The commission takes up the subject of the crltt-
cism Of some persons who seek to create the I'M
preston that the present law was not passed Tor
Its stated purpose and IL proceeds TO combat tnat
contention and to demonstrate that wherever thor
oughbred interests have been developed great gains
have resulted not only to the breed OF horses de-
voted TO racing. but to the value Of what may be
export values OF that type of horse which has in
him the thoroughbred cross steady and profta-
ble and rectes the Iact mat several European gov
ernmentS have established studs Tor the purpose OF
creating and developing that valuable type, which
is the product Of the thoroughbred and the ordinary
horse of utility.
Jockey Club order to still further encourage the
use OF the thoroughbred and enlarge his field that
there may be even fuller realizatlon or ms prac- p
tica value to every farmer who may desire his SER
vices has decided TO place as large NUMBER OF
thoroughbred stations is at present praotea at
central appropriate stations IN agricultural as
tricts. where they VIII be at the service OF the
public at nominal fee:
The report shows further that in the last year In
this state alone 30 head Of thoFOughored yeriEss
were sold for s78s95O, average Of s6s7 per head
In this total and average is included every thor
oughbred yearling offered in the market and, when

ticaIlv was the only market in the country, ana
that into II came all the yearngs to be disposed Of

BIG MONEY I'm RACING.
STATE PROFITS WELL.
Last Season Second Most Successful
IN HISTORY of Snort.

Albany, May (speciaDy-The report OF the State
Racing Commission. made up Of August Belmont
~ D. Morgan and John Sanford. for 1906. was
handed down In the Legislature to-day. Il is
the eleventh annual report Of the commission and
statistics quoted in 1t show that both in the amount
OF money paid TO the state for the encouragement
OF agriculture. and in the amount Of money earned
by winning horses, last year was exceeded by but
one other IN the last decade.
Tho total amount contributed directly 20 the
cause OF agriculture since the commission has had
the conduct Of racing has been a.2s5 H9 s. This
came through the per cent tax law, and the COM
mission points out that as the tax is upon the
gross receipts OF the associations holding licenses.
it may be accepted a practically infalliblo test
OF the popularity OF the sport
In this connection It may not be unInteresting 70
recapitu4ate briefly the growth OF this tax. illus

racing In 1895 it was S222O "a in 1896 S5O6Os 1O IN

1t viii thus be seen that the eleventh season Of
racing under the present law the most success
ful. with but single exception, OF all the years
since 1895, In so far success may be determined
or measured by popular approval. even with the
increased price Of admission, which went into ef-
feet at Belmont Park last spring. In it's broader
and higher sense. namely. in the purpose OF all
racing, which Is the improvement Of the breeding
industry the commission believes it was equally
such substantial returns to the public breeders as
made the industry in which they were engaged
Nor is Il alone 70 them, the commission con-
tnueE, that racing has been this medium OF practi-
cal benefit. Every farming industry in this state
has been directly favored. The 81 25 S9 3S special
tax paid by the associations has been devoted ex-
clusively to the encouragement OF agriculture This
tax has been the largest single item in the worthy
appropriation which every year has been made for
its assistance and development. 1t has been de-
voted. under the wise provision of the Legislature.
exclusively for eXcellency in mechanical and agri-
cultural products exhibited at the county and the
town fairs, each county or town fair receiving in
proportion to the premiums which t offered for its
last preceding years for such purposes. In this
manner racing has directly contributed to the agri-
cultural wealth Of the state and TO stimulating by
the prizes offered the best efforts Of the enterprSa
ing and the progressive farmer.

sociations paid last year under the per cent tax:
