The extraordinary statts sometimes given in running races have doubtless been noticed by all patrons of turf sports, and the follow- ing statement by a well-known and respected starter, made to a New York Sun reporter, will be read with intercst: “Are you aware.” Inquired the reporter, “ that agreat deal of dissatistaction exists over we eakans, in which the horses pave been started ely?” a, Yes, replied the starter, ‘but there. are difficulties in tue way of un even send-off which the spectators du nut understand?” “ Woat are the ditficit “Resticss horses, tricky juckeys, some eager to get the best of the start, and others who bave & purpose in keeping in the background. Then ‘a Held may move up well together, but as svon as the flag drops some will shuot away like sky- rockets when pricked with the steel,while others draw back. This is especially the case with S-yeur olds. Then, again, What appears to be an uneven start to many spectators isin real- ity a fair one. particularly in the fractional > races, where the fields ure sent away on to backstretch. Looking across trom the quurter- stretch and grand stand tw the hulf-mile post, another post on a straight line frum it across the track appears t0 We eye to.be at least two Jengths benind. Now, if a horse on the outside of the track should be vnly a length vehind tbe one on the inside, neurest to the spectators, he would really louk to them to be at feast three Jengthsin the rear. Thena jockey is sumet.ines in a pusition where he canuot sce the fing fall. and he slmuly awakes to the fact that the borses have gone by seeing the simultaneous rush. I think it would be better to sturt by the tap of a drum, The riaer would not have to watch his hore and the dag at the saine tim “ Why don’t you punish the tricky jockey: “We do when their rascality, becomes uppar- ent. While many of them ri3e tairly. others play their purt with a consummate cunning that detles detection. * It was cusy to see that Big Medicine was pulled before the start in his first race here?” “Yea. And in one breakuway where he wes far behind his owner shouted to Jet them go. 1 told him that if hor wanted his horse to lose the Face it would have to be done after the start.” Assoun as the horses were sent away in this race the starter said he crossed the tield and in- formed the judges of the circumstance. The owner, Sam Bryant, and the rider, Swiney, were summoned to answer. Swiney avowed that be trode to win, while Bryant said that his horse was fame, and that it was imposs ble for him to win. In proof ‘the horse was produced, a bundage on his feg unwound, und a sureness exposed. The users uve them the benetit of the doubt, and jet them off without penaity. it was subsequently discovered that Big Medi- cine bad been in this condition for a long time. Demg able to win or lose. as Dest suited the poul- box. Since then the owner. jockey, and horse have been ruled off the course torever. This meane all other associated race-courses as well. In furtherance of this mutter it might be well for the Suratoga Association to inquire of hurse- men West why an ex-Governor from near the Gult of Mexico and his |,ttle crowd of followers always inquire which jockey is going to ride io- Stead of What horse will run. PITTSRURG, Prrrsscra, Pa., July 16.—The final races of the summer mecting of the Pittsburg Driving Park to-day were witnessed by about 5,000 people, Maud S., who was to make an- other attempt to beat her best time, made three starts, breaking each time, first at the qgnarter, second at the half, and third after passing the three-quarter pole. The last tine she recovered quickly and crossed the wire In 2:16, | Capt, Stone decided to give her an- other trial, but the rain spoiled the track, and pools on her time were declared off. ‘The first race, 2:25 class, for a purse of $1,500, was also unsatisfactory. When the Start was made on the fifth heat Helene, Almonte Jr., Early Rose, and Alta failed to get places through error of the judges. The pther horses went over the track and claimed she heat, which was conceded them, but all pools were declared off. SUMMARY. John S.

Bovett, the well-known veteri- nary surgeon, has returned to Chicago from his Eastern trip. , The bay mare Mollie Lynch, recently pur- chased by Ira Holmes, will hereafter be driven by W. LL Doble, Jr. Mamie, the Blue Bull filly entered in the 4- year-old stake, isa full sister_to Silverton, Tecurd 2.2.17, owned by Mr. H. V. Bemis, of this city. : Barkis, the horse that trotted the Cincin- i, Baul track in 2:25 a short time ‘azo, after his driver, Bub Johuson, had been taken out, deen sent to Kenosha, Wis., the home of 1 his.owner, and will. probably not appear on. the turf again. Barkis is a very speedy horse, and when in condition can trot a mile close to 2:2, but is not wholly sound. It is not likely that Seqtt’s Thomas will start in the staltion rac’ Tuesday, being slightly lame. The horse is now totally Diind, but faster than ever. The bay ma-e Lucille, record 2:21, owned by Mr. RC. Pate, of St. Louis, recently foaled a hrown or black colt by Gov. Sprague. rec- ord 2:20%. Mr.-Pate prizes the youngster very highly. P Sleepy Tom, the pacer, whose record of 221244, made over the Chicago track in 1879, is still the best, isatthe Driving Park. ‘The old fellow is In good health this seasun, but docs not seein to have his former speed. Billy Boyle’s restaurant. in Calhoun place has been headquarters for horsemen dur- ing the past week. the St. Louis delegation, comprising Gus son, Port Leonard, John Benoist, and others being especially notice- able. Among the promising tratters at the track is the gray gelding Billy Bashaw, tull brother to Rose of Washington, record 2:2134. He ts in G, J. Fuller’s staple and will’ trot in the, 2:40 race here next Friday. Billy Bushaw can’. beat 2:30 when all ready, Blanche Amory, by Clark Chief, that was entered in the 2:25 class nere this week, will not start, having hit ber off knee while tak- ing work recently, She was gone exceed- ingly well at the time of the accident, and could show a mile better than. 2:23 under Julnson’s handling. Charlie Ford, after being in the stables of Saunders, Voorhees, Glidden, and MeLaugh- lin, which is a pretty fuir sbowing for so early in the season, has been given to his old driver, Jimmy Dustin, who succeeded in beating Hopetul and Robert McGregor with him at Pittsburg fast Friday. Duscin also has Jewert, Rolla, and several other good ones in charge. Caldwell, the Kentucky running horse- man, Who, together wich his son and a man named O’Brien, were expelled by the Chicago ‘Association for drawing pistols and attempt- ing to fight on the track, is now at Saratoga, and recently sent # telegram to the President ot the Chicago Driving Park asking for re- instatement. His request was not granted, nor is it likely to be right away, Peter Johnson drove the 5-year-old mare Catehtly, by Dictator, a mile in 272014 last Wednesday morning, she not having v hitched toa sulky more than ten times thi season. Catehfly has always been fast, but too much trotting when a 3-year-old_ made her inclined to act badly in company. Under Johnson's hundling, however, she is becom- ing level-headed. By September he expects her to trot a mile in 3:18, Piedmont, whom not a few people believed capable of beating every stallion in the.coun- try Jast- season, will trot in the free-for-all Stallion and 2:21 races at the meeting here this week, but, in order to prevent the nu- merous admirers of the animal from backing him too strongly, Tue Tribune will state that:he is not what horsemen call “on edge,” having got badly out of form about a month ago, and not. fully recovered. He will be driven by Peter Jolinson, Budd Doble, who came all the way from California to drive Monroe Chief in the stallion race here next Tuesday, has been aiving that horse strong and steady work uring the past week, and Friday morning drove him a mile in 2:2134, the last quarter bemg done in 34 seconds. In the stallion race here last season Monroe Chief achieved a notable victory, winning the third, fourth, and fifth heats from Bonesetter, Hannis, and Wedgewood in 3:2114, 2:2033.2'2U!4; and three days later trotted the third heat of the 2:25 race in 2:18}{. Persons driving to the race-track should take the following route, which will insure them a good road all the way: Jackson street to Hoyne avenue, Hoyne avenue to Mourve street, Monrve street to Western avenue; thence to Washingtan street, and to Central Park via the boulevard. On reach- ing Central Parica turn to the right should be made, and Lake street followed to Craw: ford avenue; thence to. the park. otger railroad-track has heen laid on 3 son street that thoroughfare is unfit for dri’ mg purposes. Phil Thompson, by Red Wilkes, the 3-year- old colt that created such a sensation as a year-old last s: ill trot in the race for 4-year-olds on next Saturday, and as. all the rest of the entrie: ea ye him in age his performances will be watehed with great Interest. Although eolt races are proverbially uncertain, theimpression among horsemen seems to be that the fight for fir vlace will be between Phil Thompson, Di- rector, and Barrister. Director obtained a seyear-olit record of 2:3) at Louisville last fall, trotting the fast quarter of the mile in 34 seconds,—a 2:16 guit,—and if be has iin- proved this season should be a hard one to beat, He was formerly owned by Col. John W. Conley, of this city, who sold him last winter to a California gentleman, Director is by Dictator, out of Tiarneuale’s dai, and will be driven by Dr. Uerr. Barrister is a powerfully-built colt by Almont, and* has a S-year-old record of 2:34, He is in Peter Johnson’s stable, which isa guaranty that he will not start unless in condition to go some, an- Lie TRACK TALE. Grenada has gone amiss, and probably broken down. The four-mile race advertised to be run at Minneapolis next fall did not fill. Mr. Keene will send a yearling brother to Foxhall across the Atlantic next week. The first bet on the Derby of 1832 was re- cently laid in London, It was £1,000 to £70 against Bruce, Jim Matone, who was one of the best S-year-alds out last season, died recently at Nashville, Tenn, Mr. James A. Grinstead, of Kentucky, has entered two colts in the English Derby of Iss3 and two fillies in the Oaks, The old-time trotter Stewart Maloney won a mateh race at Concord, N, IL, the other day, the best time being 2:38i¢. Bell’s Life says that $50,000 was offered not long ago by an American gentleman for the English rate-horse Isunom: Peregrine, who ran second to Lroguois, has forfeited all prior engugements, and is being specially prepared for the St. Lege Archer heads the list of winning English Jockeys for the Gregent season, With 73 mounts, against C.

Ro, McGregor, 2:18, Monroe Chief 22104, Claus 2:18, Hannis 2:1737, Smuggler 221534. Honest Allen has a record of 2:174 with running mate, Robert Bonner says. if he can get Rarus and Edwin Forrest in condition, he feels perfectly satisfied that he can beat the best time on record, and that he may give an ex- hibition trot in August. If the race comes off it will be on either the Prospeet Park or iartford track. Both borses have trotted in 2:1}; on a three-quarter track. A cable dispatch states that the London Jockey Club have decided that George Low, owner of tha bay colt Barcaldine, be warned off all places where the rnles of racing are in force. This action is in consequence of the seratching of the colt in the race for the Northumberland ate, wh took place on the 29th ult. in’ which Barcaldine was_ favorit. in the betting, and on account of Mr. Low’s telegram to Sir John Astley, in which he asked the latter if he could wanage to send him £1.000 not to start, or-get for him £12,009 to £1,000 _to win, adding “reply to mutual advantage.” correspondent of the Sportsman says: “I am a great believer in the science of, riding. What we need here, as much as’ Leamingtons, Phaetons, and Bonnie Scot- Jands, are a lot of good jockzys, not first- class, fur they are not to be had and are to be counted, even in England, upon the fingers of one hand, but artists, educated under the eagle eve of a Dawson or a Taylor, sober ana honest above all things, then cool, eautivus and wary until an exigency arrives, then, if necessary, to display the ‘courage of a lion.

He seems _to me. too, to be the coming rider, Feakes is 2 d and conservative jockey. Jimmy” icLaughlin has had a wonderful run of duck with such partners as Blackburn, Bram- ble, Warfield, Gurham, and Hindoo. Almost any stable boy could have piloted the first and last to all their victories, as they have invariably made the pace and ‘won ina can- ter. We cannot estimate his capacity under adverse,cireumstances as of the others men- toned. “Little Shauer is growing into one of the very. best jockeys, and great things may be expected of him, as he has shown a conr- age and versistency that portends a future bright with success. 1 vglieve his mount on. Parole Tuesday was his first winning one this season, and Wednesday he scored an ex- cellent winning finish on Flight, besides riding the great 2-year-old in his walk-over.” Another “smart” Kentucky horseman has come to grief, his nume being Sam Bryant. Being the owner of the horse Big Medicine, a vey fact antinal for a mile, Bryant went to the Wonmouth Park meeting and ran bim in a race aguinst a serub called Sious, the latter winning. Having been guilty of some very queer actions previous to this, Bryant was taken in hand by the judges and ruled off the course forever. Before leaving Louisville for New York, Bryant remarked that ‘rhe East was the only place to make money.” As every association In the tand except that at Brighton Beach will recognize the Mon- month Park ruling, Bryant will find itpretty hard to make,money anywhere for some time to come. The stock belonging to Mr. UW. P. McGrath, now at Long Branch, will be shipped for home immediately. ‘The death of the owner cancels al, enzagemen The stock will all be sold at auctiun. it is estimated that they ought to bring $25,000.

THE CABL Svectal Disoete: o The Chicago Tribune, Wasuinetos, D. U., July 16.—The Cabinet officers are taking advantage of the present improvement in the President's condition to obtain some of the rest which they and thetr families so much need from the great strain and excitement of the last two weeks here. To-lay Secretaries Hunt and Kirkwood and Postmaster-General James, with Mrs. Secre- tary Blaine and others, tuok a-sail on the Potomac in the Government steamer Des- patch, and Secretary Winudoin has gone with his family to Deer Park, the attractive resort on the Baltimore & Ohio Road at the top of the Allegheny Mountains, to re- main until Tuesday. Other oflicers contem- plate taking short leaves fur a day or two, but none of the Cabinet intend for the pres- ent to leave for points from which they can not easily reach Washington within a. fe hours. The Grand Jury is to meet again on next Monday, at which time it will be deter- inined whether the Government will present any of the star-route cases for action, or wait until the entire case of the Government against the star-route swindlers ean be sub- mtited, which will not be before Sep- tember, If the Grand Jury should be disposed to sit during” the in- tensely warm weather, notwithstanding the Judges gave it a vacation, itis provable that some of the more prominent star-route contractors may be presented for indictment.
