Prom a Spccsal Correspondent
pa1TIMORE. Nov. IO.-What is be
,;sved % be q practical declaration of
..s, n.s, AGAINST the authority Of the New
Wv Jockey Club developed here to-
tsv when the Maryland State Racing
Cc,,naission gave permission TO Jockey
carroll Schilling 20 accept mounts on
ne MARYLAND tracks.
Schilling had been under the Jockey
ciuh's ban for the last SIX years. Every
eTort to have him relnstated by the
fockev Club met with q cold rebuff. Ef-
fo~ts also were made, but in vain, to
beve Schilling whitewashed both IN
Kontuckv and in Canada, but these CIR
rni.s refused 20 ignore the authority
Of the Jockey Club.
As late as last month, on the eve Of
.ie great match race between Man O
War and SIR Barton, the J. X. l.. Ross
;r-e.ests were reported to have en-
dsavored TO secure a dispensation from
no Canadian Racing Association for
Schi1ling 70 ride Sir Barton in tnis
nsr,icuiar race. The fact did no, gain
vide publicity az the time, but it is said
thai, Samuel c. Riddle stood ready to
refuse to send out his great three-year-
old champion if the Jockey Club. Of
which he is steward. had been Aoutcd.
Heretofore the Maryland State Rae
inc Association. which is governed
more or less by politics. has recognized
The authority OF the Jockey Club. In
deed. In Prank T. Bryan the Jockey
Club has 2 representative steward At
p,r,lico at the present time. 1t is said
+ Schil.inr attempts to ride he will
no, be recognized and tnat Mr.. BRYAN
is prepared TO leave the stewards stand
In .e event Of Schilling winning q
race the hcrsem4n finishing second can
protest the purse and claim ii.
No Official Of the Jockey Club could

this august body viii not brook such
slap IN The face Indeed. if the Mary

In such an event owners, trainers and
Jockeys who race in Maryland would

York tracks, which operate about six
months each year.
A declaration of war by the Jockey
Club might easily put Maryland in a
very bad way. provided the Kentucky
and Canadian circuits. as we'll as the
Cuba and New Orleans associations,
should continue to recognize the
Jockey Clubs authority.

STATE Racing Association some weeks
ago. This association, it is said, asked

request it is alleged. that was scorned.
