RETIRED TO THE STUD.
End Of the Racing Days Of the Once
Speedy Tradition.

NEW YORK, July 14.-Tradition, horse
which was thought to have several years
more Of good racing ahead OF her, has been
retired to the stud. A. ]. Joyner. who has
trained the speedy Goldflnch- Reclare FLY
for Sydney Paget, announced that she
would be sent Immediately to j. B. Hag
gins Elmendorf farm, near Lexington,
where she will be bred to the noted stall
lions there.
Although only four years old, Tradition
showed by her performances this spring
that she had gone back from the splendid
form which was hers as a two year-old
This was evident after her first start or
two, and her owner became convinced early
in the Sheepshead Bay meeting that the
best thing to do was to send her to the
farm.
Mr.. Joyner thinks, even considering Ira
ditions youth, that far better DISPOSE
ton Of the mare than allowing her to be
beaten by a lot of second and third-class
horses is to retire her AT once. This is a
bit of very commendable sentiment, for
Tradition was one Of the greatest two
year-olds of her year, and even though she
has gone back on her splendid form of that
period of her career there is no good rea-
son to subject her to the ignominy OF being
beaten by horses that were not anywhere
near her class year ago.

TRACK NEAR BALTIMORE.
Work VIII Soon Begin on the New
Race Course

BALTIMORE, July 14.-Baltimore and
Washington are to have a new race course
for the runners. Plans have been COM
pleted and work will shortly begin on the
new track of the Maryland Jockey Club at
Halethrope, seven miles from Baltimore, on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad and it is
probable the course will be ready for racing
by the fall of next year, If not earlier.
The completion of this new racing plant
will give the lovers of thoroughbred racing
track the equal of any in the country.
the track in ten minutes from the Camden
station, while Washingtonians can get to
the course in forty minutes, the distance
being a little more than forty miles.
The site of the new track is a broad
stretch OF almost level ground situated at
the intersection of the Baltimore and Ohio
railroad and the Pennsylvania, SO both of
these companies can run special trains to
the course. The land Is well adapted to
the building of big racing plant Very
drainage is good, and the soil Is of char
acter that will make the best kind of foot
ing for the runners.
There Is ample room for big racing
plant, and 1t is probable the new track will
be a mile and a furlong. A fine steeple-
chase course will be built in the center
field. The appointments will be thoroughly
modern. grandstand of steel and con-
crete. with a capacity of 3,500, will be con-
structed, so that perfect view Of the track
may be had from every point lawn
will slope down from the stand to the edge
of the track. Stable accommodations for
upward OF 500 horses will be provided.

WH|TNEY'S M|SHAPS

NEW YORK, July 14.-Never In the his
started out with better prospects than dio
that OF Harry Payne Whitney thfs spring
1t contained not alone the best racing
material that money could buy, but it con-
tanned among the lot some kings and
queens Of the turf. Artful, Burgomaster,
Tanya and Timber were certainly names to
conjure with.
But there Is an old saying that when ad-
versity strikes 1t does so with plenty of
force. and 1t has been with the horses
which Whitney fondly hoped would carry
his light blue. brown cap to victory In the
historic events of the turf.
Probably the greatest drawback that was
encountered was the severe illness which
Trainer John w. Rogers contracted early
this spring. This. of course, unfore-
seen. and could not be helped, but at the
same time 1t seemed to be the start of the
hodoo that has lowered over the magnate's
barn all the year.
During the absence of Rogers from the
Brookdale farm the first of the troubles
began. Artful was being prepared for the
Brooklyn Handicap, but her preparation
had been slow and a fast work of a mile
threw her out of training. With the late
Sysonby sick and out Of the running, Art
full was the logical favorite for all of the
big races. She looked to have them in her
grasp but Dame Fortune interfered.
Artfuls retirement was severe blow to
the stable, but the worst was yet to come
Burgomaster came forth from winter quar-
ters acclaimed the three-year-old champion
This gallant son of Hamburg had hardly
started on his running career when he was
cut short He developed an injury to one
of his pasterns, and he was too valuable to
tske chance with, so that he had to be re-
tired.
Then came the accident to the four-year-
CID Tanya, which sent her to the farm for
the remainder of her days. Only a few days
ago the last accident occurred to jar the
Whitney hopes Timber won his first race
OF the year in style that indicated that
he would be able to hold his own with the
best OF the horses in training, but like Bur
gomaster he had hardly got a-going on a
winning streak when he developed an In
jury to the frog of one Of his hoofs and
had to be let up, probably for the season
at least
II these days when horses of class bring
Efs hulous prices, 1t seems a pity that four
such animals should go amiss. OF course
the Whitney exchequer Is strong enough to
bear the losses. Roughly estimating the
four horses were worth $500. COO far too
much of a loss for any turfman. Still
Whitney is the best of losers. and the tide
OF luck may soon turn in his favor.

APPLIED FOR DATES.
United Hunts Racing Association
Wants q Meeting.

NEW YORK, July 14.-The United Hunts
Racing Association. at an informal meeting
held a few days ago, decided to make ap-
plication to the Natinal Steeplechase AMI
Hunt Association for racing dates for the
fall. The initial meeting last year 30 far
exceeded the expectations of the promoters
that the association Is more than anxious
to continue.
The drawback is to get dates that viii not
antagonist any of the older racing asso-
Citations. Last year the meeting was held
during the Jamaica autumn session, and
that would seem to be the proper time for
a renewal Jamaica Is the only New York
track without steeplechase course and
there would therefore be no conflict with
other cross-country racing But the Metro
poiitan Jockey Club might not take kindly
to the clash the second time and suggests
that some other association should bear the
brunt of divided dates this time.
To make meeting of this character a
success the three days session must be
spread out to include two Saturdays and
one day in mid-week. And this is the rea-
son for any objection that might he made
to divided dates-that 1t would mean q
split of the Saturday racing crowd But
the meeting would draw but little, II any.
of the regular racegoers. and the differ
cnce II would make In the attendance at q
reguIAa aace meeting IL 50 slight a. to b.
unworthy of consideration.

Praise of the Imported steeplechaser
John NJ. p.

NEW YORK, July 14.-John NJ p.
noted English steeplechaser. recently pur-
chased by the Brownleigh Park Stable, has
been sent to join the training stable at
Sheepshead Bay. He was seen there yes
terday by a number of horsemen. who
greatly admired the horse. One of those
to look over the latest acquisition was
Thomas Hitchcock, jr.
HE is a grand looking horse" said Mr..
Hitchcock and one can we'll believe the
stories of his excellent performances. He
is a typical chaser in makeup, and ap-
parently shipped well, as he is in first-class
condition"
John NJ. p. after winning in England
last January at odds of 100 TO l. became
quite the rage and had strong following
for the Grand National. 1t was, however
his first trip over the Aintree course, and
he made q very poor showing. He was
purchased three weeks ago by the Brown
leigh Park Stable for a price said to be
the biggest ever paid for a chaser In
England.
John NJ p will hardly be seen under
colors here before the Sheepshead Bay
autumn meeting. 1t is likely that his first
start will be IN the 81 GOO race, the
Great Autumn steeplechase. At three miles
he easily beat Desert Chief last winter. The
latter, by the way, is rounding to from the
slight injuries he received when he fell dur
ing the running of the Whitney Memorial
at Belmont Park.
According to a story going the rounds
the king offered the new owner of John
NJ. P. substantial gum to allow the horse
to remain IL England and carry the royal
colors in the National next year, but the
offer was declined.
