WASHINGTON, April 4—In the racing charta which come from the Weat one ‘often sees two horses, racing under the names of different owners, coupled In the hetting as running in the same interests. ‘This means that a trainer who starts ono or more horses Ina race must have them coupled in the petting, A public trainer having several horses In one race must have them racing as so far as the betting goev. It has often been argued that such a rule should prevail in the Hast. It 1s diMoult to see the value of such @ rue only does It make poor bet Ung, but it conveys no advantage to the public, Instead the advantage is with tho bookmaker, It ts argued that a trainer | having several horses entered must know | which one ts best and that he has an un. falr advantage. Of course he must know the best, but if these horses have per- (armed in public then form will tell which Js best, regardless of what the | trainer may say. Unless one believen | that public trainers are unscrupulous an addicted to sharp practice the has no apparent value, are All in Favor of Bookmaker, One ofay say that a public trainer wilt jenter three horses In @ race and win with the longest priced one. In order to do thie the trainer must control all three Jockeys and be able to deceive the stewards and Jockeys. If there is any advantage in this rule it ts with the bookmaker. Viewed In any other way it is an Injustice to the trainer and own- ers of the horses. Bettors Should Haye Lost Money. Goldsby was not withdrawn trom the sixth race until after betting had been wolng on some minutes. It 48 sald that in all 276 was bet on his chances before the announcement of his withdrawal was made, The laye returned the money. The horse was not eligible to the race, Under the strict rules the bet- tors on this horse should have lost their money, because all bets are supposed to go when the numbers and jockeys are posted on the board, Pickering’s name was so posted, Buch thinga as this should not happen. The entries plainly stated that tie race was for horses “non-winners in 1903," That he @hould have been per- mitted to enter, that his name was posted on the programme and that he was not ordered withdrawn until afier being posted as a starter, are bits of in- excusable carelessness in the office of the secretary, Mr. Howland ought to insist that mistakes of this sort do not occur in the future. There is absolute- ly no excuse for theso errors. Dangerous Toy tor Redfern, Some day the papers will In glaring headlines convey the informaon that Arthur Redfern, crack light-weight Jock- ey, has met an untimely fate in hia automobile, Just six inches separated the front of @ trolley car and the rear wheel of Redfern'a automobile last night, The boy was returning from the races with hie father and some friends, Redfero was doing the engineering work. At Seventh street and Pennsylvania avenue @ car was approaching at a pid rate on Seventh street, Redfern and his auto were also rapidly going west on Pennsylyania avenue. The motorman clanged his bell and applied the brakes, Redfern tooted his alarm horn deflantly, but didn’t put on bis brakes, Instead, he shot ahead and barely cleared the car. The avenue was thronged with race- woers who had just alighted from the train at Sixth street, and these stopped in fright when they saw what a narrow escape the venturesome lad had, A big Automobile is rather @ dangerous toy for & young boy, A Perfect Barrier, The barrier used Oy Mars Cassidy ought to be adopted by the local tracks this season, It 1s by long odds the most perfect machine in use, Thero is absolutely no way in which it can eatoh.

His real name he RYAN’S STRONG LEFT ARM, refuses to divulge. “Ryan” posed for The Evening World photographer, or rather, posed his wonderful arm. An 18-inch tape measure just manages to get around his biceps when he tightens up his muscles, and he can strike a blow that would fell any able-bodied ox. “Ryan” has been fighting at 145 pounds, and has ningtoen mncokonts) to his credit. Five men he has put out in one punch with less than a minute's fighting. “Ryan’’ will not allow his real name to be used, for his parents, who are well-to-do peo- ple, would never consent to his en- tering the ring. “Ryan,” however, 1s anxious to go after the top-notchers, and has the money to bet In any amount Phat he can whip any man up to 150 pounds, He bars none in a sweeping chal- lenge that he makes to all the welter- weights, and his magnificent build and devlopment will win him many friends the first time he gets a chance to show what he can do In the fastest sort of company. “Ryan” is a modest boy of twenty, and does not boast of his wondeful strength and hitting abilities. His manager is J. Lowney. HENLEY REGATTA RULE IS AMENDED.
