Keeps Public Ignorant

You will recall that part of
Colonel Bradley's very success
full coup was to keep the real
form of Brokers Tip hidden
from the public. even through
the colts first year of racing.
What did the good Kentucky
Colonel care about those $1,000
and $1,000 2-year-old purses,
when he might be tipping off
the public to a swell Derby pros
pect?
So Brokers Tip comes right
up to the Derby a maiden. in
Guiding a very recent defeat by
the despised Warren Jr., a colt
not considered even good enough
to start in the Derby.
Do not get the idea that we
are implying the jockeys we're
holding back Brokers Tip all
this time, because that is not
our thought. Our idea is that
Brokers Tip wasn't pushed at
any time up to and including
the Derby.

MARYLAND Stewards
Approve 3O-DGy Ban
On Meade and Fisher
INV DAVIS ]. WALSH

NEW YORK, May 9.-1nlrCy
days on the street level or ground,
said the Kentucky Jockey Club,
briefly, to Jockeys Don Meade
and Herb Fisher yesterday after
taking testimony bearing on their
confidential little brawl while
riding down the stretch on the
one-two horses in the Kentucky
Derby. Fisher got an additional
five days for fighting in the
dressing room.
Thirty days."
Echoed the Maryland Jockey
Club, impassively, thus closing the
door against a second episode of
this gripping serial of headlocks
and leglocks and flashing, slashine
whips that beat as one. The
Preakness at Pimlico on Saturday
might have been the scene of the
next encounter, provided Fisher
was able to get a mount. Other
wise, he was out, because the
Mason people are understood to
have engaged A. Robertson to
ride their horse in the Pimlico
race.
No Effect On PreakneSs
Now both Fisher and Meade are
out but, owing to the fact that
racing folks are serious and don't
much care for innovations, their
absence cannot greatly effect the
success of the Preakness. Racing
folks don't go to the track to see
jockeys Snarl and slash at each
other like couple of Shrews on
a side street. Besidse, only the
jockeys are out. The horses,
Brokers Tip, the winner; and
Head Play, beaten a short nose
at Churchill Downs, are very
much in and this second meeting
on as many Saturdays ought to
be good.
Nevertheless, the Fisher-Meade
episode added greatly to the
galety and interest of a very good
horse race in Kentucky and, as
such, was more than welcome to
newspaper men who have written
drama into the derby for so many
years that it was getting increas-
1ngly difficult for them to emote
properly. Paraphrasing old man
Dana, it isn't news when the
jockey whips the horse.
incidentally, the decision
recahed yesterday was something
of a tacit rebuke to those critics
who inferred that no attention
was paid to Fischer's protest at
Churchill Downs, because it was
lodged against a Kentucky-bred
horse, They meant by this that,
with a rabid, partisan crowd
there, the stewards just weren't
going to call this one out at the
plate.
Only Sensible Thing
Actually, the stewards did the
only sensible thing. For one thing
the foul riding of both jockeys
did not in any way affect the rest
Of the race. For another, to dis
qualify either was to do one side
an injustice; to disqualify both
was to make a travesty Of the
horse race. This would have
meant the declaring of Charley
o. as the winner of the great
Kentucky Derby-and he finished
four lengths back of 2:06 as.
AS for the Head Play-Broker'S
Tip controversy, it seems to be
the generally accepted version
that the former should have won
last Saturday and can't miss beat
ing the Bradley horse this time.
One of the better witnesses on
this question even seemed mildly
surprised that I should bring the
matter up.
"YOu think Head Play the
better horse, don't yOu?" was
the question.
"By an hour and a half" was
the answer, and thereupOn the

 When the first blast occurred the merrymakers were nearly panic stricken and rushed through the streets.
 Populace Excited
 It is believed the disaster was of accidental origin, but the popu- lace not knowing what was hap pening, was thrown into state ol intense excitement as houses were shaken and cartridge shells were sent through the streets of the city like a bombardment was in progress
 Statement Issued
 A large pistol was hurl e d through the roof of house one quarter of a mile away.
 Later a statement was issued saying an explosion occurred ill the arsenal, which was partly wrecked but the entire country is peaceful and there is no cause fol alarm.

PROSPERITY IS RETUR N HING IN
 UNITED STATES
Vice-P resident of Hospital Association Cites
 Cleveland Incidents

Rev. M. F. Griffin, pastor of St. Philomenas Church, Cleveland Ohio, accompanied by his sister, Miss Helen Griffin, was round- trip passenger on the steamer Pr1n- cess Louise yesterday. He is vice president of the Catholic National Hospital Association of the United States and Canada, with mem bership of 723 hospitals. It was formed 19 years ago and national convention is held annually.
 He is also senior trustee of the American Hospital Association, rep resenting 1000 hospitals in the United States and Canada, which includes state, county, and muni- cipal institutions as well as hos pitals of all religious denomina- tiOnS.
 The Rev. Griffin is particularly desirous of obtaining material to prepare a paper on the hospitals of Alaska, to be read at the Asso- ciations Convention to be held in Quebec in 1887, commemorating the anniversary of the foundation of the first hospital in Canada, which was established in Quebec in 1637.
 Prosperity Returning
 The Rev. Griffin's enthusiasm in discussing the returning prosperity is infectious and refreshing after the great deluge of depression talk that has flooded the country the past few years. In referring to the greatly changed conditions and the extremely optimistic outlook in his home city, he said:
 Tn Cleveland the steel mills are operating at practically normal ca pacity, and the womens' ready-to- wear garment industry is operating day and night. The automobile accessory business, an important factor in the commercial life of Cleveland, is working 24 hours daily. The general impression is that the Cleveland Payrolls, which are the best barometer of prosper ity, are three hundred percent better than they were four months ago. Another reliable indication of an improvement is that the number of dependents in Cleve- land is gradually decreasing, and the work of the charitable organ izations is being greatly leSSened." :"
 Travel Increasing
 The tourists spoke of the greatly increased number of persons travel ing by train, stage and private au- tomobiles in the states, and of the greater number coming to Alaska, The Louise yesterday had 2l8 pas sengers, and is completely sold out for her next trip, according to V. w. Milvihill, Juneau Agent for the Canadian Pacific Steamship Go.
 All Pleased With Trip
 Joining with the Rev. Griffin
 
 in enthusiastic praise of their first Alaska trip and the delightful weather on their entire voyage, were his sister, Miss Griffin, Mrs. M. T. Ireland, Treasurer of the Catholic Sun, Syracuse, N. Y.;; her sister, Miss Anna LTucker, edu- cator in Syracuse public schools; Mrs. Margaret w. Kennedy, active fraternal and parish worker, New York City, and MT. and Mrs. M. J. Maloney, New York City. MT. Maloney is a veteran railroad con- ductor, prominent in the Brother hood of Railway Conductors, and personal friend of former Cover nor. Alfred E. Smith. He and Mrs. Maloney take an extended trip each summer All expressed a desire to return for longer stay and see more of Alaska.
