Gossip of the Track

Jockey Rettig's contract has been transferred

on Monday. Rettig and Fisher have patched
up their differences arising out of the poor
showing which Belle Kinney made oddson
favorite not long ago with Rettig up. Fisher
set the boy down, but has come to the con-
clusion that he may have acted hastily and will
ride him on his horses whenever he make
the weight, notwithstanding that he has dis
posed OF his contract. Rettig has shown an

both alert at the post and good hnisher. and

boy some good mounts to start him of right

INDIVIDUAL BETTING
WORKS WELL AT
NEW ORLEANS
No Arrests Made, Though Play
Is Heavy on Opening Day
of the Meeting
Especial Dispatch 10 The CALI

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 16.-Before
1000 people, who cheered Justify as the
horses in the first race paraded before
the stand, the winter meeting at
Suburban park under the direction Of
Joseph Murphy, the well known race
track man, began this afternoon. and it
is taken for granted that the people
welcomed the return of the races, even
though on half mile track and in
cramped conditions.
Plenty OF betting was indulged in,
sbut no arrests We're made. The public
placed wagers, but received nothing in
the way of memoranda in exchange,
and the individual book makers and
their helpers, who accepted all the
money, were not molested.
District Attorney Marroro and Sheriff
Marroro, his father, sat in the judges
stand and watched the running or the
first three races. They then mingled
that they had ordered 10 policemen,
deputies and specials, who were on
hand to prevent lawlessness and to not
make any arrest among the Detters un-
less the Locke law was violated.
The New York system used was not,
In their opinion. violation OF Louisi-
Gently. enacted. Sheriff Marroro re-
NAMED throughout the entire after
noon, having instructed his off1cers
thoroughly The races were interesting
of the crowd was almost overwhelm-
ingly interested in the outcome of try
ing the system of betting.
The Inaugural handicap was won by
Coppert1eld, which was the second
choice in the individual betting. Coon
ey was the favorite at all times and
was heavily supported. Copperfield
was hopelessly out of 1t the first por
tion, but In the final furlong his rider
cut the rail and came with a rush, win
ming by a length going away: John
Garner was second and CoOney x third.
Three hundred horses are stabbed in
and around the track. Many of them
raced at City park and the fair grounds
last year.
The officials are: Joseph A. Murphy.

BetIess Racing at Benning
Planned for Spring

NEW YORK, Jan. 16.-"Ho for Ben
ming" That will be the slogan of
race goers during the early spring
months.
It may seem strange that this cry
will be raised again after the sudden
of racing at the national capi-
tai last fall, but on the best of author
ity it Is stated that the Washington
jockey club will resume its meetings
shis spring The stewards of the Ben
ming track are hopeful of success in
the proposed meeting. They will at
least hold a meeting of short duration.
Just how long the meeting will last
will depend upon circumstances and the
action Of the courts.
The Washington jockey club will not
sanction any betting, but IL there are
any arrests a test case of the recent
anti-public betting bill passed by the
present congress will be made.
