OLD CHARTER OAK
RACE Is RENAMED
Freak Conditions to Govern
Thirty-seventh Renewal Of
$4,000 Trotting Contest.

The historic Charter Oak Purse. which
was the fret Axcd event Of the trotting
turf with a value OF $4,000 or more,
has been renamed. remodelled and rem
dered almost unrecognizable by the d.
rectors of the Connecticut Fair Asso-
ciation in striving for something new.
The thirty-seventh renewal Is announced
as the Greater Charter Oak Purse OF
$4,000, but In reality the money Is
offered for three separate races. one OF
which has a value of $4,000, while the
others are for purses OF $4,000.
Trotters eligible to the 2:12 class
when entries close can be nominated in
all three races. but the conditions pro-
vide that any of them making winning
race records before September faster
than 2:10 and not faster than 2:06
shall start in the first of the three races.
on Labor Day. Monday September 8. On
Wednesday the second race will take
place. This is for the horses that have
not made winning race records faster
than 2:1O. together with any of the
starters In Mondays race whose owners
are willing to pay an additional en-
trance fee Of $3.50 for the privilege OF
competing in the slower class. On
Thursday there will be third race. for
$4,000. in which those horses that have
beaten 2:06 in winning races may start
together with any from Wednesdays
field that may wish to come In.
The apparent purpose Of these COM
plicated conditions is to make 1t possible
for a large number Of horses to win
money. The number may be no larger,
however. than 1t would be IL the direc-
tors had let the historic Charter Oak
Purse alone and put on two other races
for purses Of $1,000. And 1t may be
considerably smaller IL Walter Cox and
Thomas w. Murphy cut loose some OF
their surplus 2:05 trotters in the Hart
ford series after having kept them eligi-

pointed time.

tBETLESS' TROTTING
IN ORANGE COUNTY

Entries will close tomorrow for all
races at all meetings of the Orange

braces Endicott, Monroe. Goshen and
Middletown, with $4,000 In purses for
twelve days OF harness racing in July
and August. This compact little cir
cult of New York half mile tracks, all
or the main line of the Erie Railroad,
has come to be recognized as represent
ing all that Is best in trotting. and in
recent years has attracted the largest
crowds and the fastest horses seen
anywhere. despite the entire absence of
public betting of any kind. This year
the wide open meetings in other States
are making high bids for the horses,
and 1t remains to be seen whether bet
less racing can continue to hold its own
in competition with open bookmaking
and pool selling on other tracks. This
weeks returns will tell the tale.
