The prosperity of the club and the success of i's present enterprises did not at all depend upon the sale or tho lack of sale of pools on the events underscored for the coming meeting, So thought the members, Pooisell- ers might come or go, the racee would take place with even more than the usaal brilliancy of surround- ‘ngs. There would, of course, be somowhat of novelty in baving the great pool rooms of this city closed during an excitiag meeting at Jerome Park; in hearing the faint voices of the auctioneers walted over the waters from the Jersey shores, and but litile be- sido this in the change which would be vory notable. ‘The crowds which make tho meetings at Jerome Park the most striking of all the racing concourses in this country would be present, and betting would go on Just as before, only without (he noise of the pool room sales, The members’ thought no more of tho affair than that outlined above, The subscription room of the American Jockey Club was opened last evening with appropriate ceremonies, Many of the members are attending the Baliimore races, but the necessary business was transacted. Among those present were M Jerome, Withers and Robbins. Among the boi rs was the well known turfite, Mr. James McGowan. The following are among the bylaws adopted at the meeting last evening:— AW The Executive Committee of t i of the » merican Jockey Club ption room nnd have iuttons for its govern= members of the club nd duties, ‘ockey Club become members ° scription koom by inscribing their names in the Look kept for that purpose, Others muy become members on the introduction of w member of the club ani of tho room, evidenced by lils signature in the book.

The advantages of the system of bookmaking just adopted by the Jockey Club are:—ist, No commis. gious are paid. Any one can make a book, no matter how stnall, provided the book is not ‘*overlnid.’? 2d, Unaer the very severe rules adopted by the Ameri- can Jockey Cub, coped irom Tattersall’s, London, defaulting mong the members _ bet- ting will bo rare, The fact that the defaut- er’s namo 18 “posted” will prove suflicient to restrain most members. A prominent member said:— “Tho public will soon find that, as the nuinber of bookmak- ers increases, the odds on the horses will grow fairer, on account of the opposition, When you make a bot against a book you know exactly what odds you aro getting, whtch is a point you do not get in pool sell- ing.” ‘The following are the latest odds and changes in Lovoll & McGowan’s books on the Jerome Park races at No, 13 Exchange piace, Jersey City, N.
