for an extension of the present race.
Carey yesterday sat down hard on
the enthusiasm of Eugene BeifeId
and other enthusiasts who are hav-
ing their first crack at the, racing
game and wanted to Overdo it at the
Jump. The wise veterans of the
tracks were with Tom when he told
BeifeId and the others that Haw-
thOrne would close Saturday for the
year.
Tom told the jockey club: 1.-THE flu

grabbed off from this one session.
If you're going to have more racing
this year it won't be at Hawthorne"
There were several thrills at the
track yesterday. Originator, an aged
horse owned by Mrs. P. A. Dryer, fell
in the first race, breaking his leg. He
was shot Immediately after. In the
fifth race Luzzi and Matre went down
and their jockeys, Van Dusen and
McCabe, were badly shaken up and
bruised. In the third May First

IGNATIUS LINCOLN
AGAIN IN CUSTODY
Agents Of Department Of Justice In
vestisating Circumstances Attending
Eseaps-Arrests May Result If 9th.
ers Are Found to Be Implicated.

New York, Feb. 21,-Agents Of ths
department of Justice here are investi-
eating the circumstances attending the
escape Of Ignatius T. Lincoln, the self
styled International spy, who was re-
captured Saturday after enjoying near
ly a months freedom. It is limited that
more arrests may result If 1t Is found
that Lincoln was wilfully assisted in
his escape or given shelter by persons
who knew he was q fugitive.
He was in the Brooklyn Jail today
awaiting decision OF the United
States circuit court of appeals on the
question Of whether he shall be ex-
tradited to England to answer to the
charge of forgery on which he was
arrested. Lincoln contends that If he
is sent back to England he will be
executed as q spy.
It is learned that Lincoln spent q
portion of his months liberty on a
farm near Red Bank, MI, as board
er seeking health in the country. He
became involved In a dispute with the
farmer and left hurriedly for this city.
The farmers effort to recover damages
for which he held Lincoln responsible
disclosed Lincoln's hiding place and
give clue to his identity.
