1 TURF STARS THAT WILL RACE IN CALIFORNIA austic Comment About Live Affairs of the Turf i AN FRANCISCO this winter with a band of gt rich quick operators from all over the country There are legitimate handlcappera and dockers to be sura but the maw of men who advertise in the pupers about picking Ions shot winners are fakers pure and simple They do not pick 10 per cent of the long priced winners they announce la the papers Probably no one ever heard of Kako Em Co until a big announcement appeared In which they are credited with plcklug Allx at 0 to 1 Of course the card was pro pared after Allx had won However there Is axswlld rush to purchase the Information dealt out by Fake Em A Co They may secure 100 credulous people at IS for he week As Fake Km Co fall to make rood which Is the case nine times out of ton the business drops to nothing Then the managers of Fake Em ft Co open up a new business under the iname of Fleece Km A Co making the announcement that they picked all six winners There la a big stampede to purchase the Fleece Km Co Information Money rolls In until the victims find out that they are paying big money for bogus tips Tn about three weeks a big ad appears In one or more dallies In which the public Is Informed that Bogus Is the only genuine docker Me Is credited with picking Can Lose at 10s to 1 Bogus gets all the business tor suckers are as plentiful as ever AVhen Bogus falls to hand out any of the promised long shots the nrm of Fake Em la revived for thenew bunch of sucker These bogus parasites that prey on some patrons of racing are a drawback to the sport and the authorities should stop the robbing of the public by mrans of falsa announcements Some of them have the au dacity to rnnounce In public print that on a certain day a certain horso will win at 0 to 1 stating that he was pulled In his previous starts About 200 people will part with a ft hill to learn the name ot the horse and It Is a cinch that he does not win The ihancea are that tha horse was not pulled In any ot his previous starts hut this In the bunk that catches tha sucker It la strange that the California Jockey Club doe not take the matter lip especially a these fakers frenuent iv Jnnounca that horses ara pulled No rahot of the Chronicle should be fooled a this paper has consistently exposed the fake Take the list of winning stallions every year and a careful study will show that one horse Is responsible for the high standing of his sire as a general rule Commando who headi the list thla year is a notable exoeptlon Peter Tan won almost half tha money By BEN BENJAMiy Is to flooded for the dead son of Domino and Emma but Superman and Peter Pan contributed over 1100 000 between them the later accounting tor over tISOOO Hastings son of Spendthrift and

Sweeney and Burns In tha Rd Bowpewey race on the closing day of tha Ken tueky Horse Breeders meeting was tha subject af wide dlscuaalon In the lobby ot the Phoenix Hotel that night and Myron MeHenry who had been substituted for Sweeney a tha driver of Red Bow after tha first two heats of th race waa ona ot the group Such a situation as that which necessitated those fines said he would not be possible were every heat Jt race As long as tha associations stick to tha fossilised three ln flve races and permit tha pooling to go on the general result matead of tha rasult of each heat there will be cheaters sod cheating Now do not wish to be understood as saying that all ot tha cheaters wouU be wiped out by tha adoption of the system ot dash racing but there would be most pleasing decrease Jn their numbers and ther would ba pronounced Improvement In tha character of the racing But tha laying up of heats la not always born of a destre cheat In three ln flve racing particularly where those racea have closed iweeks tn advance of the day for their decision a driver frequently finds that ha Is up sgalast speedier though possibly not gamer horses than the one over which he Is pulling the reins If ha Is certain that by going the first two heats easily he can win tha third and fourth and fifth or any three that would give him the race he would be foolish to kill oft horse at the outset ot the long drawn out affair and lt some other fellow take advantage of a like oppor tunity In this way nave prooaoiy laid up as many heats aa any man who lias been driving as long aa I have but there was nothing criminal In my actions I did ilt simply beeaate I could not possibly have won those races in any other way rrfrhenever the secretaries and the governors of the sport units to make every heat at every track a race pay liig the purse money on the result ot that heat forcing the pool sellers do likewise maklnr the booking division ot the batting ring open to all reputable layers or better still wiping out that form of gambling entirely and closing their purse races overnight In stead of weeks ana some cases months In advance of the day of the race we wilt see so sharveloos an Improvement In the racing and the general character et the sport that many of the timid ones who cling to the eld notions wilt gasp In astonishment We ate bound to coma to these conditions some day but I have tittle hope for It until tha affairs of the light harness turf go generally and broadly into the hands of progressive young men sj Often In expressing these views to some of the elderly gentlemen who ara paying the feed bills en good horses or putting up for tha care and maintenance ef race tracks I have had them say to me Oh my dear Mr MeHenry that iseundt vary nice but ws Can not

fort Ight away things are fast assuming an air ot readiness at the Emeryville track The Improvements on the plant which were deemed necessary or even advisable for the comfort ot the patrons ot the club or the convenience ot the horsemen having been completed about all that now remains to be done is to put tha grandstand In order for the naeommodatlon of the big crowd which may be counted upon to lend Its presence toward giving the meeting a send off ot the blaze of glory description In fact but for the framing up ot a programme the meeting could be begun the day after to morrow the Intervening day being allowed tor getting the grandstand and betting In closure ready The track Itself Is ready as ready as It could be made and the horses are here and a sufficient number ot them lit for the beginning ot operations on short notice That Superintendent Grant has the track In superb condition the workouts over It these mornings go to show and these morning trials also attest that there are many horses among tboss at band that are ready to race even though they may not be keyed up to their best efforts a condition usually attained only with actual racing Mora horses will he here before tha date set for the onenfng of the meeting It Is true but as faraa a need for material even for a protracted meeting la Concerned they might easily be dispensed with THOCS4 VD IIOHSE1 AT TRACK There are now nearly or suite 1000 horses quartered within the track In Closure and on the outside alt the available barns In close proximity to the track having been grabbed up long ago A meeting of 150 days duration could i be run wjttt considerable fewer than 1000 horses so that the stables which are yet to come to Emeryville are not needed to Insure aufflrlent rao Ing material It Is not to be Inferred from this that they are not wanted On the contrary they will be most wet come not because of the effec their presence wilt have on the quantity but rather on the quality of the racing material for the strings which are yet scheduled to make the trlp acrosa tha continent number many horses of exceptional class for winter racing purposes Thus while It Is to be regretted that It Thoma and other owners who had announced their Intention to race at Emeryville this winter have tor on reason or another reconsidered they wilt bo missed only In so tar as they could hare furnished horses above the average seen at winter race1 mjtetlirgs The IndlfteTenfmaterlat In their barns can certainly welt be spared In the case ot Mr Thomas It mar be said that irthe reason which has been assigned for his change of plana Is correct namely the suspension of hie boy BoMIIing for what Judge Hopper considered a bad Tide at Lnionla no regret should be felt because he has decided to remain away from Emeryville Mr Hopper Is one the most capable rao Inr officials In America to day lit the quarter of a century he has been in harness he has at some time1 or other filled every Important official position about a race track from the presiding Judgeship down even to starting the horses on one occasion al least There Is no angle of the game with which he Is not thoroughly conversant tie know the i omr of the horses which race under hln and of the boys who ride 4hem as accurately aa these thlngs etn be known and can differentiate between good riding and bad as welt as any man who ever Went Into he stand Added to all that he Is at air times fair and disposed to temper Justice with mercy Those who know the Emeryville track official well must therefore feel assured that Bcuininrs in the saddle at the time he got Into trouble was If not criminal at least far behind the boys abil ity and with people who bet on the racea which virtually meana the race going publics generally It makes no difference whether a horse Is beaten because a boy puts ud a criminal ride or because he does not try Listless riding as Judge Hopper designated OchtUInrs work should no more be tolerated on the part of a Jodkey pt established ability than so called criminal riding and Its a surd thing Schilling got nothing more than was com ing to blm when ha waa suspended If Mr Thomas a comparative novice at the racing game la disposed to set hit Judgment ot a ride up against that of ari expert In such mat tan or If he Imagines that because he has A big stable or because Schilling la an ex ceptionally good rider his Jockey should be immune irom disciplinary measures then his announced determination to race elsewhere should be reoeived with satisfaction rather than regret It la to be hoped however for the salts ot his reputation as a sportsman that Mr Thomas has been misrepresented In the matter ot the reason alleged to have been assigned by him for not bringing his stable to Emeryville the action of Judge Hopper wuh reference to Schilling 1 1 OID TI3IE KACEIl WHO WILL COMSTIUrCT SEVERAL HICTCLB RAC1VU TRACKS IT CALIFORNIA AROUSE INTEREST IX MEETIXQ The event of the past week In local tutf circles was the arrival of It Carmans strong stable The arrival of the Carman horses and the anticipated arrival to day ot Bam Illldreths splendid string have had more effect In arousing interest In the coming meetingmeeting at ithe Emeryville track than any other recent happening because it is generally recognised tuat these two stables wilt contribute to the racing here this iwlnter much of whatevet class It may develop and racegoers naturally feel particularly Interested In them While It does tint seem reasonable to auppose that a hone like Uncle wilt be raced much at a winter meeting In the light of the valuable engagements hesnay have or wUl have next summer stll the mere presence at the track of the great colt and the fact that he may be seen In public on tew occasions gives to the coming meeting an Interest that would not otherwise attach to It The spectacle of a 110000 horse In a race at a Winter meeting would of course be a very unusual one and doubtless many people In the bay cities who seldom or never visit a race track wilt be found at the local course any day that Uncle may be on parade Aside from Uncle however there are other stars In
