NEW YORK. April Bout of all the
noise and fuss incident 10 the running Of
the Carter Handicap and the inaugura-
ton Of the metropolitan racing season
at Aqueduct, L. l., today, the habitues
Of the club house were reminded once
again of the turf's greatest romance
the enlargement Of the Maddens.
The former Mrs. Madden. now the
wife Of Louis V. Bell. living in Paris,
France, has been heard from. Madden,
in talking to a friend some days since,
alleged his former wife had sent a
photograph Of herself and Bell to the
Madden bOys-Edward and Joseph. Ac-
cordfng to the master Of Hamburg Place
the boys coldly gazed upon it and re-
turned II 10 the mails as "undesiTed."
The incident served as a subject Of
subtle gossip about the club house and
among the Kentucky and New York
friends of the famous couple. That the
N1addens have not entirely settled the
score between them is evident from the
intention of Madden TO call for an in-
mediate hearing in supplementary pro-
ceedings of an action against Mr.. Bell
for $4,000 damages, based on a charge OF
alienation of Mrs. Madden's affections
On the other hand the fact that Mrs.
Bell is about to contest the right of
Mr.. Madden to the care and direction
Of the two children is generally under

Madden Is Shrewd Horseman.
In the meantime John E. Madden re-
mains the oracle Of the paddock here in
the East. No man is so good a judge OF
a horse IN training. and there is scarcely
one better qualified TO speak on turf
conditions and turf politics than this
same Kentucky breeder. Just before
the shift from Benning he made two in
teresting observations. In an interview
he declared he thought Salvidere would
have a mighty hard time holding the
laurels Of the three-yeaT-olds from De
Mund this coming summer, and that
racing In New York would never cease.
