Special to THB PHILADELPHIA TIMES. NEW YORK, December men had considerable to talk about to-day In the early assignment of dates for the 1902 racing season and the turning down.

If it can be so called, of the recently Incorporated Metropolitan Jockey Club. Consequently, It cannot exactly be teimed a turning down for the reaeon that when the Board of Stewards of the Jockey Club met on Monday night there was no application from the Metropolitan Jockey Club, to be acted upon one way or the other. The Jockey Club will not admit that the meeting was held much earlier than usual stave off possible complications that might arise if the Metropolitan Jockey Club shojild file an application. William Reynolds, president of the Metropolitan Jockey Club, said to-day that It was true no application had yet been filed. He expressed surprise that the Jockey Club had filled the slate so early, and it was plain that they had been taken completely unawares.

Mr. Reynolds did not make any application to-day for a revision of the dates, so that the Metropolitan Club could get a place In the circuit, but he said that a statement would probably be prepared In R'RH A AUCTIONEERS.

There was a good attendance and some keen competition in the Christmas tourney on the grounds of the Keystone Shooting League yesterday.

Two events were shot oft, the flrst being at fifteen birds, handicap rise, $10 entrance. The second event was at seven birds, handicap rise, $2.50 entrance. Thirteen men entered In the flrst event, aud Hood Waters, a crack wing shot from Baltimore, was placed at scratch, 30 yards. Fitzgerald and Gelkler were the closest men, 27 yards. The birds were remarkable, considering the dull weather, and only two of the thirteen entries finished with straight scores.

E. J. Russell and I. W. Budd were the fortunate ones.

M. Hobbs made a very poor start, scoring three straight misses. H. Ridge lost in the second round, followed by Herbert and James In the third round. Bower lost In the fourth, and De-laney, Anderson and Fitzgerald in the fifth.

Waters lost In the sixth, while Oclkler lost two dead out of bounds In tbe sixth and seventh. H. L. Landls, the last man to spoil his chances for a straight score, lost in the eighth round. This left Russell and Budd to fight it out for first plnce.

Both men shot a careful match and killed their entire quota. Ridge came In for second money, with 14, Waters and Herbert dividing third money, with 18.

Whether or not America will be represented In the polo contests In England next season seems hard to determine at present.

Reports have been flying thick and fast that a team of this country's best players had already been selected to go abroad and compete for International honors, but these reports have been officially denied by the chairman of the Polo Association. That the polo players of this country have shown vast Improvement In the past two or three seasons is well known, and expert authority holds that should a team of our best players Invade the home of the Briton there Is no doubt but that they will be equally successful as the American horsemen, boxers and other Yankee representatives of the sporting world. An international polo contest would certainly prove of much Importance, and should an American team meet the Englishmen on their grounds the Britons might be prevailed upon to come over here for a return match. It would stimulate Interest In the sport and should be accomplished If possible. Steamers to Leave Philadelphia.
