On Sunday last she got first| money in the stake at San Jose Coursing ' Park, taking the flag from Jolly Rover in the deciding course. On account of the hard condition of the field in the Garden | City grounds many who were aware ol‘ her victory thought that the going would leave her feet in bad shape, and in conse- | quence did not figure the Lady to go the | route. She was out to win, however, and, | while she was fortunate iIn getting two byes, still she went to her work in_quick, | Fin McCool and “Paim- flower were unable to seore a point | against the Lady, and May Hempstead, who led her until the close to the hare, fared as badly. In the final Minnfe Wa * Wa was on the short end of the score 9 to 5, Gazabo, the hare with a history, refused to let either of the contestants 4dd a kill to. the record, and made good his escape. | A dozen short-ends landed, the sensation of the day being the upsets of the fAvor- ites, Los Angeles and Royal Annie, at 6| and 7 to 1 respectively by The Owl, the score being 3 to 2 in each event. The Owl is a litter sister of King Cash- fer, a youngster of promise, and while in vedterday's stake she was slow on the run-up, ker work on the hare was good. Minnie Wa Wa, the runner-up, showed determination in her courses and out- worked Admirai SBampson and Warpath, both favorites. Thornhill, a once great performer, was beaten easily in the run-down by Real Lassie. R E. 8 B Lopezs young showed up well, beating Dayliht on the short end and leading St. Helen close up to the hare.

The committee, BUT .HE WILL ACCEPT NO MOUNTS He Discusses His Reeent Trouble in England and Says That He Wili Return to Vindiecate Himself. + OD SLOAN, the premier jockey of America and England, arrived in the city last evening and is regis- tered at the Palace. Tod was accompanied from the East by Phil Daly Jr. and Tom Burns, the jockey. A large quantity of baggage was also brought along, conspicuous among the pleces being a collection of sporting guns, which Sloan will have use for dur- ing his stay on the coast. As the famous jockey sat in the grill- room taking dinner with his friends he was the cynosure of all eyes, and it was generally commented on that he looked pale and haggard, although he was at- tired in the latest fashion. When asked as to his reported suspen- ston by the English Jockey Club for in- traction of the rules, consisting of bet- ting and receiving presents for riding, Sloan eald: “It is not true that I have been ruled off the turf by the English Jockey Club and, in fact, I have never received any notifi- cation from that body as to any adverse action against me. A lot of stuff has been published in the papers of this country which is absolutely false. “As a matter of fact, I am at liberty to & + AMERICAN JOCKEY WHO I8 IN DISFAVOR IN TURF CIR- CLES. <* -+ ride on any track in this country or in Europe, for the English Jockey Club has not even withdrawn my license.
