Big Stakes at Sheepshead Bay and
Brighton Beach This Week.

The summer meeting OF the Coney Island Jockey

be changed to Brighton Beach, where the twenty
two days meeting of the Brighton Beach Racing
Association will begin The closing scenes at

Handicap at mile and a quarter. is the magnet
to-day, while tomorrow the second half of the
Double Event of $4,000 for wo-year-olds and the
Lawrence Realization for three -year-olds will be
decided.
The best two-year-olds in training are eligible
for the second half Of the Double Event, at six
furlOngs and another meeting is likely between
James r. Keene's Ballot and Sydney Paget's Water
Pearl, while Oran, the conqueror Of both in the
Great Trial. may also start. Ballot beat Water
Pearl in the first half Of the Double Event on the
opening day OF the meeting. but Water Pearl
finished in front OF him in the Great Trial. Ballot
suffered at tho start in that race however and his
followers did not lose faith in him If Ballot should
win tomorrow he would earn an extra 81 900 in
plate or money winner of the first half.
The eighteenth running Of the Lawrence Realiza-
tion' at one mile and five furlOngs will probably
call TO the post Accountant, Kurok Bohemian

THOROUGHBRED RACING.

The stewards OF the Jockey Club had no re-
course under the rules in deciding in favor OF
the protest filed 10y F. L. Hitchcock against the
entry OF Go Between and Ormonde's Right in
theECommonwealth Handicap on Saturday. The
rulsu is explicit and Alex Shields was careless
in npt living up its fun letter and giving the
age4of the horses when the entries We're made
The protest was Of such a purely technical
nature, however, that horsemen as a rule were
not in sympathy with Mr.. Hitchcock's action.
It is an open secret that owners and trainers
have not been OvercarefuI in making nomina-
lions for various stakes, and it is safe to say
that many entries would be void if protests We're
filed. A separate protest must be made in each
case. however, and in all probability nothing
more viii be heard the subject. Mr. Hitch
cocks avowed purpose in making the protest
against Go Between was TO cali the attention
OF owners and trainers 10 the fact that the rules
must be obeyed in letter. To make it appear
less personal. however, he should go further
and file protests against any horses which are
not entered in strict conformity with the rule
on the subject.
IN the matter Of the doping" Of Bundooran
should be far-reachng in its effect 1t was a
clumsy job and easily detected in this particular
case, and punishment meted out promptly.
The turf rulers are determined TO stamp out the
practice OF giving stimulantS to horses. and
many an investigation is made, when circum-
stances appear 10 warrant If, which never be-
comes public. II is the policy of the Jockey
Clgb TO work quietly and under cover as far
as possible, 10 avoid the petty scandals which
work harm TO any sport, but the action in this
caSe shows that the stewards are wide awake
amos alive 10 their responsibilities. 1t is hoped
that it may be a lesson TO others who might be
disposed 10 stray from the straight and narrow
path.

PROFESSIONAL BASEBALL.

The champion Giants passed Pittsburg and
4ooz-second place in the National League race
last week-not through any particularly good
work on their part, however. but because Pitts
burg took slump and lost six out of eight
games played. New York won three and lost
two games. and failed TO gain on Chicago, which
ryong4ive games out Of seven and now leads by
the big margin OF 56 points. The work Of the
champions was most disappointing TO their
many followers, one of their victories was
pure gift, and they were outplayed in the most
disheartening manner in three games Ey two of
the weakest teams in the league 1t is burn
ing question now if the Giants catch Chi
cago. The Cubs are playing fast ball, and will
have the advantage Of being on home grounds
fer the next three weeks. and opposed TO Bos
Ton. Brooklyn, Philadelphia and New York. The
Giants, on the contrary, started on a long West
ern trip yesterday, and viii be lucky to score an
even break. They viii play four games with
Cincinnati and two with St. Louis this week, and
after that must visit Chicago and Plttsburg.
The outlook is not encouraging. The brightest
feature Of the situation Is the apparent return
10 form of Mathewson If he can stand the pace
he viii be great help 10 the team in its time of
need. Brooklyn dropped from fifth to seventh
place last week, losing four in five games. The
team also went West yesterday TO begin a series
with Pittsburg to-day There was some excuse
for the Superbas, with four of the regular
players out of the game il was no easy matter 10
put a Team III the field. on Friday Donovan had
put catcher at third base and a pitcher in
left field and II was not surprising that fohila-
delphia able TO improve her standing at the
expense of the Dodgers
The Highlanders are home for long stay, and
the chances are bright for their earning a safe
place in the lead for the American League pen
nant. ST Louis beat them Saturday, which
forced the team into second place, d game be-
hind Philadelphia and game ahead Of Cleve-
land The race among these three tearms is one
of the prettiest and closest record. New
York won five and lost three games last week.
while Philadelphia and Cleveland five and
lost two each. This made little no change in
the standing Of a week ago The Highlanders
are hitting the ball and their pitchers appear to
be in winning form, ang, all things considered,
their pennant chances look particularly strong.
Three games are scheduled with St. Louis and
ahree with Chicago this week.
