The training season is at lta height, for in less than a month racing will begin In the metropolitan dUtrlct and all four of the great tracks Morris park, Qraveaend, Bheepehead Bay and) Brighton are now alive with thoroughbreds every day In the week. The horses which will earn undying fame by giving to their owners the rich stakes attached to the Brooklyn, Suburban and Futurity handicaps are already well along in their work, bat) from now on until the eeaon, ends In the fall their trainers will not know an eaay moment. Training a race boree is not fnn.

Neither is it work that any man can do. A man must be born with a talent for It, Just aa the great painter and the great pianist are born with talents for art and music. Successful horse training ha almost been elevated to the plane of science, and the few really expert trainers in the country can almost be counted on the fingers of the two hands.

Hla tall has already been banged and his coat is mude ahlny and sleek each morning, giving him something of the look of the real racing thoroughbred, and as by this time he is approaching his second birthday, ha day la drawing near when he must sober down and Join tho ranks of the bread winners.

There are alout 300 horses at Just tbte age on the metropolitan tracks Just now, and they are giving their trainers a world of trouble. Most of them ara entered in the big 2-year-old' stakes for the year, but by next fall some of them will be earning their feed In a more humble capacity than racing amid plaudits of the multitude. And many of them which now give the greatest promise win prove the rankit failures, for the nntrled 2- ear-old Is about the biggest gamble connected with horse racing, and that la saying a good deal. With the older horses the task of the trainer is comparatively easy. He knows their dispositions and the conditions under which they can race to the best advantage.

He knows in what company tbey should be entered, Jut what weight they can carry, the distance that suits them best, and the kind of track which will give them the most speed. He Is acquainted with their individual good and bad traits, for the clever horse trainer of to-day does not handle his string of ClTKFINANCESllilil IN GOOD? CONDITION, saisn.

13,312, C. 8., passed tha city council and duiy promulgated likely to stand. This Is the measure which provides for a place- in the "reserve fund of 1897 for contracts that have been carried over from 1805. Although an ordinance has been offered to repeal this measure it is not very likely to stand, the disposition of the council, it is understood, seeming to be to get these amounts out of the way. Mr.

Joseph D. Taylor, notary public pt the preceding administration, gave the Picayune a concise statement of the position of the city with relation to the contracts, which was published during the week past and has since supplemented it with the following: "The city of New Orleans is by no mean unable to pay its just debta, as it is now, and has been for the last two administrations, almost entirely on a cash paying basis, and heretofore these reserve fund contracts have always been regarded as a continuous fund, revolving over from year to year, all ordinances to be paid In the order of their numerical standing. "There is one thing, however, which It might be well to consider In this connection, for the benefit of the city's credit. At RIVAL EQ.ULSE CRACKS OF OT. A Wonderful Wedkmo of 110,000 per year and a percentage of the stable's profits, often amounting to twice that sum.

Is sufficient evidence of itself that the really great trainer Is a rare product. The common method of measuring a man's worth la his to earn money, and. Judged by this sordid standards the successful horse trainer towers above many a man of world-wide eminence. In this fortunate clase are such men a It owe, Hugglns, Joyner, Jennings, WaJden, Miller, Birch, Byrnes, Lakeland, Campbell. Rollins and.

Stuart. They are the premiers of their kind, and few of the great stake will fan to go to some boree In their respective strings. The training of the race horse begins almost at the hour of its birth. From the first It is taught to look upon man as its best friend, and the breeders who bave adopted this rule are the most successful. When on the home farm the little foal la always kept In the society of men and boys, to break it of Us natural shyness, and, sometimes, savageness.

A 11 rt! foal that will rub up against a stranger, providing it Is welt bred, has thrice the promise of the youngster that scarries sway like a whirlwind at the approach of ar visitor. As soon as the foal has been weaned It la the custom of the most advanced breeders to place some light weight on lta back to accustom it to the presence of a atrange burden. While this part of Its education la In progress it receives lta first schooling with the halter, and later with the bridle and bit. great care being taken In using the latter to prevent Injury to the mouth. There ta an old saying among horsemen: "No month, no horse," and It la deeply respected in all training stables.

Each horse Is studied individually, and hla training regulated accordingly. For Instance, tbe great horse Clifford Is at hla best when on the "big aide," that Is, when he carries an abundance of hard, muscular fat. Hi old rival, now retired to the atud, Henry of Navarre, was Just the reverse. He had to be trained down to the flnes possibly point to do himself justice. Clifford always weighed a good 'JSO pounds more than Navarre.

The breeding; of a horse determines this point very accurately. Clifford is a grandson of Bonnie Scotland, and ail the progeny of that famous sire were gross horses. Navarre has Leamington blood in him, and all of the horses of that type require hard work to bring them to their best. With a batch of untried 2-year-olds to handle, the trainer flret studies the pedigree of each snd then ma-pa jout a course of changing It as the horse develops. This plan often fails, however, for full brothers and sisters of the greatest racehorses often tarn out worthless.

8an Francisco, April 24. Commenting npen tbe result of the recent visit of Jno. E. Searlea to this coast, tbe Chronicle says: "The recent agreement between John E. Searlea, secretary of the sugar trust, and Clans Spreckels, whereby the trust secured large Interest in the beet sugar Industry of this state, haa more belaud it than the mere desire to strengthen the position of the sugar trust with American leflners.

"The beet sugar Industry of California -threatened the sugar trust, and both the tiust and the beet sugar Industry were threatened with competition by the rich planters of HawalL whose contract with the 'American sngar refineries will ex- fiire this. year. The planters are backed an Immensely wealthy syndicate, and if the reciprocity agreement between the United States snd Hawaii can te maintained, the- product of the island plantations will make the Pacific coast a controlling factor In the price of sugar In the United States, for the reason that should the trust make excessive prices for granulated beet consumers could fall fcaek on the Hawaiian planters and-their friends la Ban Francisco, who are prepared to erect a great refinery here Independent of the trust, refineries, controlled toy Spreckeie. "Should the, planters of the Islands be able to Induce the United States to annex HawalL. there can toe an outlay of about $23,000 for each plantation, add to their sugar tootling pUnts machinery enough to produce granulated sugar, and put it on the American market in competition with the product of the trust's The object ef the sngsr trust in dealing with preckels was preliminary to head off competition from the sugar 'refineries California, controlled by JSpreekela.

That wss. accomplished In th recent transao tlon wheretoy. an Interest in the Watson-Tlllefinery and, Interest In other beet' sugar industries controlled toy Spreckels were purchased toy the trust, though the sellers 1 say hf still holds the controlling Interest." j.

"That with the excptlon of the amounta Involved in ordinance No.

13,212, Council 8erles, there is not due by the city of New Orleans, for the years 1800, 1891. 1892, 1803, 1804 and 1895, more than about the sum of $30, and the money Is In the city treasury, to pay, whenever the parties call for it. "While this amount of $13,000 la left by the past administration, to be paid by the present, it will be but Justice to say, that the last administration paid of the debts left by lta predecessor, and In two items alone, over one million dollar; to be more precise, for the Melpomene culvert, on the new courthouse snd jail; $455,312 20, making a total of $1,034,312 20. Mr. Story is one of tbe few members of the counclT who does not think the reserve fund should be levied on specifically, so far ahead.

He wa for following the law to the letter and making the revenues of each year pay for the expenditures of the same, and when the revenues did not. to require the contractor to wait until there was money convenient to pay him. He was willing to hare all old claims against tbe public improvement fund canceled so that the council would have a clean appropriation to work upon. His Idea to cancel tbe obligations would be to borrow the money at 4 per cent, and pay the whole amount at once snd thus wipe out the 6 per cent certificates and make 2 per cent eaving to the city. By placing the $133,000 out of the way at once, 2 per cent interest for two years would be saved, for fully two years must elapse before the money would be available.
