When Jockey Highlander. who was recently
suspended by the stewards OF the Pimltco
meeting. attempted TO enter the AQueduct
track yesterday he was notified by the
Fnkertons at the main gate that he would
have to remain outside. The Pinkertona
he'd received instructions from the Jockey
~ to refuse admission 20 both EnSlander
and Jockey Diggins, who Was also set down
at Baltimore for queer riding. but Dtggine
did not put IN an appearance. The cases OF
both OF these boys have been referred Co
tho Jockey Club for final adjustment, and
yunOr has IL that they will lose their licenses.
George BOlas. the boOkmaker, also failed to
appear az the truck. which was in line with
the statement made on Monday that he had
been notified 10 stay away.
The race run by the PatChoyIo Stables
Don Enrique in the ROslyn Handicap was 80
great an Improvement over his previous
performance that the gOssips were soon
busy talking about Jockey Knapp. VINO rodo
him on that occasion. Knapp was severity
criticised for What looked Ike a bad ride and
as Don Enrique in that event was a hot fay
crits there was no end OF fnltfnding. Knapp
loft for California on Saturday, so that William
H.. Du Bots. the owner of Don Enrique, put
up NOtter in yssterday's sfair. Du Bois,
who was decidedly put out with Knapp's
ride the other day. told his friends that with
Noeter In the saddle Don Enrique would run
% his real form and would come pretty Close
70 winning the ROslyn. On Bois spoke BY
the card. for with excellent handling by
NOtter Don Enrique ven q han2up race
and was beaten by onlv half a length in the
fast time of i;3o2 20.
Whether this marked Improvement by
Don Enrique was the cause OF an Official
Investigation by the stewards or not could

the race plaCsd Knapp in a rather Jnenyiable
position. When it is taken into cOnsidera-

ride on Gold Lad at Belmont Park. which
