new ruling PLEASES
BOWIE MANAGER
Finishing Touches Being Placed on
Consolidating to Have Many
New Features.
ALL STABLE ROOM is TAKEN

The Jockey Club has ruled that in
future race tracks operating under the
guIse OF an alleged fair will not be to-
Grated. and that owners and jockeys who
participate in such events will be per-
Soma non gratas with this august body.
This ruling is receiving much praise
from the management Of the Bowie
course, and Manager OHara stated that
he has felt right along that this action
was necessary for the good of the sport.
The fact that the officials of New York
Jockey Club declined to act at the pres
ent meeting at a Maryland fair is
prima fscie eveidence that the jockey
club intends to adhere strictly TO this
new ruling.
Manager o'Hara in an interview to-
day said:
1T is the intention Of the Bowie man.

Of the Jockey club in every particular
We intend to race under their jurisdic-
tion, and our fair will be a feature that
will sattract from all sections of the
state.
Our course in a new one, and we have
not had ample time to put on the finish
ing touches, but We have a force of men
at work and hope by the spring to have
an ideal race course: nevertheless we are
going to give a bona hde county fair,
as our charter provides.
Our meeting which starts on October
first will bring to our course the same
judges and stewards as have always
worked under the jockey club ruling.
we hope to improve our fair each
year. 1t is a permanent institution, and
we will offer special inducements to far
mers to make exhibits"
The course has been completed and
everything is in readiness to start All
available space has been allotted to horse
men and many have been compelled to
seek accommodations nearby the course

Just why Grin has split with the Geor-

TO his action.
At a good guess It would seem that be-
cause none Of the men Washington has
obtained from Atlanta in the nature of
recruits or optional agreement players
have amounted to much.
The break in relations between the

story of the Tape.

All along the absence OF excessive weak
ness In the Missouri Pacific stock and
bonds in the present crisis has seemed
illogical Yesterday the positive strength
of these securities and OF those OF all the
principal Gould roads was a noteworthy
feature. This frmness developed despite
the fact that the total OF notes deposited
up to last night did not encourage high
hopes OF "A success OF the extension plan
or at least of the kind OF success Wall
Street has been led to believe was inn
peraiive. This Is all the more curious
because for days past the bankers as
ISOLATED with the property have been vio-
lently denying that any OF the notes
would be paid on on June l and assert
ing that the failure OF the extension plan
would spell receivership not only for the
Missouri Pacific itself, but for the whole
Gould system. rumor that Kuhn. Loeb
4 Co. were finally TO take things in hand
was promptly denied. That rumor any
way did not jibe with the strength OF
Missouri Pacific stock. for It is understood
that under Kuhn. Loeb * Co. control the
stock would be heavily assessed. on the
face of IL. therefore. the only explanation
for the firmness of all the securities con
cerned liz that n receivership is TO be
avoided Under the circumstances. at
tention is directed TO the somewhat cryp-
tic wording OF the advertisements calling
for deposit of the notes which state that
the success OF the plan depends on whether
a sufficient amount OF the notes" come
In. Wall Streets construction OF the story
tod by the tape is that sufficient
amount" of the notes Is IN sight and that
the undeposited remainder will be taken
care OF at the last moment.
