NEW YORK, June 1.-The stew
ards OF the Jockey club have not res
cinded their order allowing the book
makers but ten minutes in which to do
business between races This rule was
established at the recent meeting at
Belmont park for the purpose, so it was
stated, of preventing as much as pos
sible the sending out of racing informa-
ton from the track. it was at first
thought by many patrons of the race
track that the stewards acted rather
hastily IN the matter and without Civ
ing the subject proper consideration,
and that as soon as it was made ap
parent TO them that the enforcement
of tho rule would work a great hard
ship to the players. the order would be
rescinded. The fact, however, that the
rule is being strictly enforced would
seem to indicate that the stewards in
tend TO stand pat and make the ten
minute rule a permanent fixture of the
betting ring for the future. 1t has
already been brought to the attention
of the stewards that their order al
lowing the bookmakers but ten minutes ,
time in which to book on a race was
most unfair TO the players, for the rea-
son that it compelled them to accept
prices far below what they should be.
There is, under the present system,
virtually no competition among the
bookmakers. The betting ring to all in
tents and purposes is nothing short of
a syndicate ring and the longer the
present system lasts the shorter the
odds will get and the fewer the players
will become. Unless bettor is fort
unate to get his money from home he
cannot possibly survive very long and
play against the percentage the book
makers now have over him. There is
no one TO blame for this state of affairs
but the stewards, who have very un-
wisely sought to govern the betting
ring by a rule which has placed the
race-going public at a very great disad
vange The stewards may feel that
rule that will serve to keep racing in
formation from being sent from the
track to the poolrooms of the city, but
at the same time they should not over
look the fact that those who patronize
the racetracks for the purpose Of put
ting down small bet on their choice
in a race are entitled to some protec-
tion.
Racing May Suffer.

starters in stake races or early closing
handicaps is one that fair minded rae
ing men have decried for years, on the
ground that injustice is thereby work ed

tended TO add overnight handicaps TO
the lists of events in which starters

suffer loss of popularity-possibly a

visitor at a tremendous disadvantage.
There is nothing to prevent sharp
owner or trainer preparing horse tor
killing in an overnight handicap, al
ter long let-up in which its form will
have been entirely forgotten, and get
ting away with a coup at long odds:
With the new order of things, 1t Will
not be necessary to enter in stakes and
handicap fixtures, but simply TO pre-
spot, nominate, and take the cream of
the market. That. at least, is the way
IL looks after some recent experiences.
The minute betting interval has
already succeeded in handicapplng the
players and helping the layers of odds
TO an extent that is causing a rapidly
growing dislike of present methods of
conducting racing. With the twenty
or even fifteen minutes allowed for
speculation, there was formerly a
chance for the market TO settle down
and give the race goers something like
an even break In percentage. At pres
ent with only ten minutes for betting,
some of the books hold their first sets
of odds from the start to the finish
of the betting. except that they cut
down the figures against the horses
that are being supported. 1t is an ac-
tual fact that some of the states dis.
played at the Gravesend meeting hg-
ured nearly 200 per cent for the layer.
Horses and jockeys are none too kind
to the people, anyway. 1t is hard
enough TO try to beat them, when one
has plenty of time to dope them out
and look around the track bit, but
when horse is sprung in the last few
minutes then there is hardly any
chance at all, unless one is IN the
"know.n And few people "lnow,"
