new YORK JOCKEY
CLUB Will Fight
Stewards to Garry War Into
Court to Save $4,000, 900
Invested in Plants

NEW YORK, Sept. 12.-That the
gressive policy in an effort to save
horse racing in this state from the
effects of the drastic anti-betting laws
passed by the last legislature was the
declaration in racing circles here to-
day, based on the authority of recent
interviews with prominent members of
the jockey club. The authorities, ac-
cording to these announcements, will
fight their cause in the courts and will
take advantage of every possible van
tage point to save the SIS. 900 which
they have invested in racing machinery
in New York state.
In an interview with member of
the jockey club, published today, the
situation is Summed up as follows:
THE jockey club stewards intend to
fight in the future. Their amiability
has been accepted on the part of their
opponents as sign of weakness and
as result racing has been oppressed.
The stewards have discovered that their
tame submission has been an error
I'm the past, rather than take full
advantage of the courts decisions per-
tanning to betting, fearful that the enc
mics of the sport might say that. they
were violating the law-something the
racetracks have never done-the stew
ards have merely taken the shadow of
the substance allowed them by the
courts.
1T was with a mistaken idea that
they were accomplishing some good
that the racetracks fought the pool
rooms for many years
ut would have been much better if
the stewards had not made this move.
1t is beyond their province and juris-
diction to act as guardians of the
morals of persons outside the race
tracks. The turf woalo have been bet
ter off If they had stuck to their own
bailiwick.
1T has been the policy of the jockey
club heretofore to let matters take
their course. as they did not think if
wise to fight the opposing forces. But
now they intend to ask the courts for
relief. Suits will be brought at once
with this object in view"

BLUEAVD GOLD HAS PROMISING CANDADA7ESFOR BABY TEAM
BLOT ANGLES FOR
BURNS-LA GRAVE
Metropolitan Promoter Seeks
to Match Young Italian
With OakIander

Though he is getting no assistance
from boxers who might do all in their
power to give the fistic game a lift at
Metropolitan club is endeavoring to
overcome these obstacles and give the
fans the best card obtainable. He is
negotiating with Frank Burns, the Oak
land lightweight who jumped into
prominence by his great 10 round stand
against Owen Moran, the English box
er, and Antoine la Grave, the local light
weight.
Burns is a tried performer and looks
like top notcher in his class. Fans
were bit skeptical about him before
he opposed Moran, but now they are
convinced that he will do But with
La Grave it is different. He is a light
weight who has done everything asked
Of him, but one of those fellows whom
most Of the boys sidestep. The Italian
has never been given a good chance to
show his merit, but If he meets Burns
this will be the chance of his career.
Blot will endeavor to sign them up for
10 round setto.
Along with this match the Metropoli-
tan promoter intends TO put on two
other scraps that will be worthy of
attention. If Sammy Keller is success
ful against Jimmy Carroll, then Blot
Will endeaVor TO send him along for 10
rounds against Monte Attell.
The third fight which Blot has under
consideration is a 10 round affair be-
tween Montana Dan Sullivan, the mid
die weight, and another good man in
his class. Sullivan is a likely fellow
and showed to advantage when he
easily beat Denver Jack O'Keefe some
months ago. Sullivan is a noted ath-
lete and has shown considerable class
in the ring.
The betting on the KelIer-Carroll
fight is even. Both boys seem to have
many admirers and speculation prom
ises to be brisk.
Promoter Ed Powers has practically
signed up One Round" Hogan and
frankie Smith to battle four rounds on
september %. This looks like a, crack
match and should draw a banner house.
1t looks as if the east is beating us
out for the choice matches When the
Milwaukee promoters nailed the 10
round affair between rPackey McFar-
land and Ad Wolgast they certainly
landed a gem of a card.

CATARRH
A SYSTEMIC BLOOD DISEASE

Catarrh is not merely an affection
of the mucous membranes; it is a
deep-seated blood disease in which the
entire circulation and greater part of
the system are involved. 1t is more
commonly manifested in the head,
nose and throat, because of the sensi-
tive nature of these membranes, and
also because they are more easily
reached by irritating influences from
the outside. The symptoms of Ca
tarrh, such as a tight feeling in the
head, nose stopped up, throat clogged
and dry, hacking cough, ETC., show
that the tiny blood vessels of the mu-
cous membranes are badly congested
and infamed from the impurities IN
the circulation. To cure Catarrh per-
manently the blood must be purified
and the system cleansed of all un-
healthy matter. Nothing equals
S. S. S. for this purpose. 1t attacks
