NEW YORK RACING
BEGINS MAY IS

NEW YORK. April 3.-The local racing
season will begin al Belmont Park Satur-
day. May IL. This date Is not official but
it comes from a most trustworthy source
and may therefore be considered anthem
tic.
The racing days of each week will be
Tuesday. Wednesday, Thursday and Sat
at present. Ii is possible that later in the
year there may be five days a week of
sport. but during the early part of the
season the racing will be restricted to
four GAYS
The long delay in making the announce
ment 10 the opening of the racing sea-
son and the dates assigned to the various
associations is due to a. discussion be-
tween the representatives. of the tracks as
to the ACCESSIBILITY of racing three or four
days each week. 1t is known that some
of the stewards of the Jockey Club favor
racing on three days only. and that they
have been holding out for this schedule
The race track officials, however, are anx-
ious to have at least four days a week
sport Hence the hitch in the publication
of the dates.
The news that a racing fund was being
subscribed to caused much comment in
turf circles, and not a few men scoffed
and tried to beIittle the story, but the rich
patrons of the turf did not cry 1t down.
and those who would talk on the subject
confirmed the report that such a fund was
being subscribed to.
How did that story leak out, said
Phil j. Dwyer, president of the Brooklyn
and Queens County Jockey clubs. i
thought the secret was we'll guarded"
'Is il true?' he was asked.
Yes. there is such a subscription list
and it has been subscribed to by men who
are interested i'm the welfare Of the thor
oughbred. Don't you think it's a sports
Amanllke idea? No one can now say that
the men interested in racing are not will
ing TO contribute out of their own peck
cts to maintain the stability of racing"
1t is understood that this racing fund
will help to defray the expenses of racing
this year and next if there should be any
loss. The money will help to provide
stakes purses and the running expenses
of each association.
In other years the racing season In New
York and its environs always began April
Il and the Aqueduct track was the scene
of the racing. but this year the Jockey
Club officials have been in no hurry TO
open the sport. 1t has granted a sanction
to the Pimlico meeting. and with its do
nation of $500 plate practically says go
on and begin racing and start the ball
a-rolling in the east
At the famous old course near Balti-
more the bugIe call of boots and sad
die will usher in the season April n. 1t
will continue until May l.. Two days of
grace intervene before Belmont Park
throws open its gates. during which time
owners can ship their horses to Belmont
Park.

ED DUGAN'S QUICK
TRIP FROM ENGLAND

NEW YORK. April .. Eddie Dugan,
the American jockey. whose license was
~efused d. the stewards OF the English
JOCKEY Club was a passenger OF the
steamship Philadelphia. which arrived
here Saturday evening. Dusan's prompt
return 10 America was due 10 the fact
that ne omitted to go before the stew
ards OF he New York Jockey Club and
ask for license 10 ride
As he had no such license when he ap-
piieu 10 the Eng sh stewards, they sought
and obtained information from the local
tuf1 authorities as TO his general career
IN the saCdle. The report embodied the
fact that he had been several times fined
and suspended TOR foul riding, both in the
east and in California. Consequently the
Engllsn stewards declined 10 let him
ride III Great Britain.
Dugan will appear before the license
committee OF the Jockey Club today and
ask for license TO ride. If precedent IS
followed. as in the cases OF Tommy"
Burns and others several years ago, the
stewards are likely to give Dugan Ii
csnse. together with the Sharpest lecture
he has ever received, Then the English
stewards will no doubt respect the ruling
OF the American stewards and Dugan will
receive permission To ride there. Unless
ne refrains from offending. as he so often
was charged with doing in this country.
the career of the lad on the English turf
will he brief
The fact that so many American jock
eys have succeeded Oh the English and
French turf is quoted reason why
DuSans record would be a very different
one in England from that he earned in
America in respect 10 foul riding. Many
races in England are run on straightaway
tracks. ana this has tendency to re
duce foul riding 10 minimum. Horse
men here think that given fair chance
in England Dugan would soon Obliterate
the black MARKS against his name as a
foul rider. The license committee of the
New York Jockey Club is composed OF
Messrs r. r. Hitchcock, Andrew Miller
and II. X. Knapp. Dugan was to have
riden for both Messrs Belmont and Whit
ney in England

TURF AND TRACK NOTES.

Immediately after Sol Joers Arranmore
ran second to Duke of Sparta in the Lin
coin handicap. carrying 1O4 pounds, and
being unlucky to lose, most of the turf
critics declared that much interest in the
Newberry cup, run Thursday. April l.
was killed, inasmuch as Arranmore was
handicap ped in the latter race TO carry
only 81 pounds. and as he started and won
at the short odds of IL to 10 the critics
seem to be justified. The difference in the
two handicaps created much comment in
January. when the weights appeared and
this will be much intensified now that
Arranmore has won the Newberry cup.
The advent of the American jockey,
Dave Nicol, in France and the fact that
he was chosen to ride Borax in the Lin
coin handicap greatly confused some OF
the French turf correspondents. who did
not know that Nicol rated in America as
he rode the lamented Sysonby in most of
his three-year-old engagements. The full
name of the jockey is David La Sale
Nicol.
When Harry Payne Whitney's Seacliff
ran second to Master Hobson in the
Batthyany plate at Lincoln. England.

English apprentice, who is by no means
inexperienced. as in 1891 he had 21i
mounts, WlHHlHS llIcleeH vi lIiC
three-year-olds which also ran in the
Batthyany plate Seacliff, with 1ol pounds.
was called upon to concede much as
fourteen pounds TO some of the same age.
J. II. Martin has done most of the riding
of Mr.. Whitney's horses since the season
began, March %.
The American-bred geldins Wychw wood
by Sir Mcdred. out of Dixianne. which
won the National Hunt steepIechase at
Warwick. England. March 70. at one
time in his career masqueraded under the
name of Cheapjack though no blame was
attached to his owner. who was unaware
that the horse had ever run under the
name of Wychwood. All the money won
by the horse under the name of Cheap
jack was returned to the respective race
course arrangements.
1t is one of the romances of the turf
that Mr.. A {. Mendaros, a resident of
Greece. who owns the horse Duke OF
Sparta, which won the Lincoln handi-
cap. is blind. He was at the race course
the day of his horses victory and was
greatly excited when the shouts OF the
popuface proclaimed the victory of his
named racer.
