GRAND CIRCUIT STEWARDS
 MEETING

DETROIT, Mich, Jan. 10.-The stewards of the Grand Circuit assem. bled here today for the first annual meeting they have held outside of New York in many years. The busi- ness of the meeting is the assign ment of dates and the making of other arrangements for the coming racing season. Owing to the condi- tions that have surrounded the rae ing game for more than a year past more than ordinary interest eenters in the meeting.
 Though last year was a very un- satisfactory one for the Grand Cir cult, especially the eastern meetings, it is not believed there will be many changes in the circuit for next season. Readville and Hartford, in the east, and Detroit, Syracuse, Cleve- land, Columbus and Kalamazoo are regarded as fixtures. There is talk that Buffalo may be dropped and that Poughkeepsie may be refused read mittance. In the latter event one of the metropolitan tracks, possibly Brighton Beach, may be taken in. Baltimore is expected to make appli- cation for dates, but it is likely to be turned down. Grand Rapids and Terre Haute, it is understood, would also like to try their luck in the big circuit if the necessary arrange ments could be made.
