EASTERN RACING SEASON.
Metropolitan Season for 1910 Opens at
New York Today.

New York, Apr. 15.-The Metropol-
itan horse racing season of 1910 opens
today with the running of the tenth
Carter handicap for three-year-o
and up. at seven furlongs at Aque-
duct, L. l.. the home course of the
Queens County Jockey club. From this
time on the interest of the lovers OF
sport will be divided between the base
ball diamonds and the race track.
A splendid season on the turf Is ex-
pected. All the New York tracks have
had dates assigned them, and all of the
classics will be run, including the Flu
turity. the Brooklyn handicap, Wle
Suburban, the Brighton handicap, the
Belmont stakes and the Empire city
handicap. Much money is in sight for
the horse owners. At Saratoga alone II
is expected that "A quarter of MIL
lion dollars will be hung up for com
petition. At Belmont Park, Grave
send. Shecpshead Bay, Brighton Beach
and Empire City there will be offered
for competition more than $6oO,Ooo'
Thus nearly one million dollars is III
sieht for horse owners, so that they do
not feel as depressed as was the case
in 1908. when the Agnew-Hart anti
betting laws took effect.
The Aqueduct meeting which OPEN
ed today will run until May IL after
which the racing will shift to Belmont
park with the Juvenile for two-year-
olds and the national stallion stakes
as the big features. GraVesehu'
Sheepshead Bay, Brighton Beach, Yon-
kers and Saratoga will then, in turn
complete the round. Both the spring
and fall meetings at Aqueduct have
been extended to include the dates ori-
sinally assigned to the jamaica track
Altogether there will be one hundred
and nineteen days of racing III Ne"
York and vicinity-a sort OF reJu-
yenation of the turf since the pllsn'

him to be sitting as a democrat at
a republican council table and jeopar-
dizing his chances of participating in
the democratic reward which he ex-
poets i'm the near future.
Postmaster General Hitchcock's go
ing from the cabinet is a matter
which the people will have to order.
Mr.. Hitchcock is going TO guide the
republican congressional campaign.
He will not resign unless he is cri-
ticized for his dual role.
Secretary Ballinger is holding office
under difficulties. AS soon as the con-
gressional investigation committee
comes to a conclusion in the row ne-
tween the secretary and Clifford Pin
chot, Mr.. Balllnger will retire. 1t does
not matter If he is cleared.
James Wilson, the dean of the cabi-
net. may not stay at the head of the
department of agriculture for the re-
mainder of the presidential term, but
he suits Mr.. Taft as an official. Mr.
Wilson is getting old, however, and
may want to retire before Mr.. Tafts
time is up.
