HARNESS RACES PLANNED
Early Closing Events on Goshen
and Monroe Tracks.

Orange County Is first in the light har.
ness field, with an attractive programme
for the august race meeting OF 1912.
Rensselaer, Weston. secretary Of the his
toric tract. at Goshen. offers the following
early closing classes: The 2:l6 trot. the
2:2O trot the 1924 trot the free -for-all
pace, the 2:10 and the 2:l4 pace. These
classes are all for s. 900. as we'll as two
colt races, one for two-year-olds and one
for three year-olds. .}esides these races
there will be 2:12 trot, with a 81 600
purse. to draw the top notchers. Since
the advent Of such stellar lights as Uhlan
and Willy TO Goshen the public refuses
to accept anything mediocre, and Mr..
Weston has established a standard which
will keep him hustling TO live up to.
L. W. Barton. secretary Of the Monroe
track, announces nine early closing races
They are for trotters in the 2:l7. the 2:20.
the 2:24 and the 2:3O classes; a three
year-old trot, free-for-all trot a free
for-all pace, a 2:l5 and 225 pace. The
2:15 pace and the 2:l7 trot are for 81 500
purses. The others are all $1,000 stake
races.
In addition to the regular programme OF
early closing events a $1,000 tuturity for
foals Of 1912 will be- opened. TO be raced at
the regular meetings in two. three and
four year old divisions. This is the first
futurity ever raced over half-miIe track
and should be attractive to Eastern
breeders
Instead of the usual four days meeting
both Goshen and Monroe promise only a
three days meeting next season. Nearly
every meeting was interrupted by the
weather last season, and Il three days
meeting will allow for three days Of rain
and still permit the meeting to be finished
during the week.

A REVELRY OF HOCKEY
Five InterSChOIaStiC Games at
ST. Nicholas Rink.

Hockey enthusiasts witnessed cluster
Of five interscholaStic games at the St
Nicholas Rink yesterday. The Manual
Training High School an entrant in the
1nter-High School Hockey League, played
its first game and suffered defeat before
the fast playing of the Columbia Gram
mar boys. The score was 4 10 O. The
Columbia lads displayed the better team
work but the Brooklyn players proved
good skaters and seemed 70 have a prom
ising combination.
The seven of Stevens Preparatory School,
of Hoboken, took part in a double header,
emerging with flying colors. 1t scored a
rather easy victory over the All Saints
School seven by total Of 4 points to o..
but II had q hard fought contest against
an all-scholastic team, the final score be-
ing l to 0. Throughout the first half
both sevens played at a whirlwind pace.

GRISCOM GETS RESPONSE
Reported at Atlantic City That
He Has Heard from Miss Arnold,
[By Telegraph to IRE tribune J

By IelcBidph 10 ire lElEuNe'l
Atlantic City, Feb ?l.-It was learned
here to-day from an authoritative source
that George s. Griscom, jr., has been in
communication with Miss Dorothy Arnold
since her disappearance, and that she has
responded 10 his inquiries. which reached
her through the personal advertisement
column Of q New York newspaper.
Some "blind" advertisements have been
inserted in the newspapers to misiead any
one following the case, but II is understood
ttat the younger Griscom is not prepared
10 reveal all he knows. even 70 the Arnold
family, until they recede from the position
Of scorning him. which their quoted re-
marks led him TO believe they have taken
From the tenor OF the messages to the
missing girl which have been published II
seems that If Griscom knows the where
abouts Of Miss Arnold he has been di-
rected by her not to reveal his information
until ell difficulties which might prevent
their immediate union when she returns
have been dissirated.
The younger Griscotl remained in his
hotel to-day. but sent Tut numerous mes
sages and letters and engaged in several
!ong distance telephone conversations,
IN spite OF the fact that no new elew had
been made pubic for many days there was
still belief in the minds Of many persons
who were more than casually Interested
in the mystery tha: Dorothy Arnold will
vet be found alive. These persons seem 10
go on the old assumption that no news is
good news"
II was or this account, it was said, that
even Francs r Arnold. certain as re de-
cIared himself 70 he that his daughter was
dead. nevertheless was willing that District
Attorney Writman should become active
in the case. NJ. Arnold has paid two Wis
its 10 the District Attorneys apartments In
the Hotel Iroquois IN West 44th street He
Asserted that he laid the whole history of
the case before him
II wes learned last night that the only
young woman in Washington who was
known to be intimate with Miss Arnold in
her colegs years could not enligh'en the
Arnold lawyer who saw her On any detail
Of the case.
