THE SUNDAY INTER OCEAN, MARCH 95, 1900. 11 END AT NEW Trillo Wins the Big Handicap but Is Barred in the Betting. RACING IN THE MUD Heavy Rainstorm Spoils the Sport at the Southern Track. Race: for Gentlemen Riders Is a Dazzling Success as a Farce-Comed -Summaries and Entries. Speral Dispatch to The Inter Ocean.
NEW ORLEANS, March M. Bar5-year-old horse Trillo won the Turf Congress handicap, at one mile, which signalized the closing of the racing season in New Orleans, but Knight Banneret, who finisbed second was the one the books paid off on, as Trillo, and also Sidney Lucas, were barred in the betting by the stewards. Trillo was only allowed to start because his had been accepted for this stake before entry Captain Rees had pronounced him unfit for racing. The last time Trillo's name appeared on the programme he was peremptorily excused, because in the oPinion of the presiding steward he was so lame that allowing him to go to the post would be an IMposition on the public. Dr.
Riddie, who trains the horse, protested that he would work out his lameness, but to no purpose. Trillo was not only excused, but his entry was ordered refused thereafter. The horse was sounder today than at any time since his no bad leg was nerved, yet he plowed his way htrough the deep -mud and made -a good field look comparatively cheap, and after winning. all the way pulled up showing no ill effects. Dr.
Riddle was more proud of the vindication of his judgment of his own horse than be was of the first money In the stake, although after an unlucky winter he can find plenty of uses for that. The reason for the barring of Sidney Lucas was not apparent. Little could have been expected of the 3-year-old son of Top Gallant, considering the deep mud and the fact that he was giving weight to every other horse in the race except Prince of Veronia. Nine Horses Start. There were nine starters in the stake, raising the value with the added money $2,755.
Compensation, on his demonstrated ability as a mud runner, was made favorite at 2 to 1, but Ed Gartiand II. received the strongest backing, going from 6 to 1 down to to 1. H. T. Griffin's 3-year-old, who was in receipt of fifteen pounds from Sidney Lucas and Prince of Veronia, was stanchly supported at 4 to 1.
Trillo had the lead of two lengths at the quarter. He showed speed to go to the front at the start and open a no sign of lameness and required no urging to maintain his position to the end. Ed Gartland 1I. fell in behind him with Eva Rice next in the piccession to the three-quarters, where Ed Gartland quit. Knight Banneret moved up on the turn and closed with Eva Rice on the stretch, passing her out below the furlong pole and getting second place handily.
Compensation was a tired fourth, and Sidney Lucas and Prince of Veronia were behind hint necks apart as usual. According to the conditions $500 of the stake was divided among the trainers and jockeys of the three placed horses. A heavy downpour set in early in the morning and there was no let-up until after the horses had gone to the post in the first race. With pleasant weather the season would have gone out brilliantly, but even in the face of the untoward conditions the finish was just as vigorous as the start. The race for gentlemen riders, in which eight young men, each with a social following, took mounts, was a failure as a horse race but a dazzling success.
as a farce-comedy. Four of the field, including the favorite, Zolo, with Mr. Allen Mehle up, went the course, one mile and seventy yards, to a false break, Claroba, Joe Shelby, and Tineroft remaining at the post. Zolo galloped home in front. After the horses were lined up again Biil Powell gave Mr.
Matthews another preliminary whirl of a mile. When the field was sent away for good Tineroft went to the front and opened up a gap of eight lengths at the half. He came back to Claroba and Joe Shelby. In the final run Claroba easily beat Joe Shelby and Mr. S.
P. Blane, who was supposed to have drawn the worst mount in the race, got the punch bowl. San Durango Beats the Favorite. San Durango, the well-backed second choice, easily beat the favorite Tom Collins in the opening sprint of six furlongs. Tom Collins and Jamaica had all the early speed, and they drew far away from their field in the first half, but Jamaica gave over at the three-quarters and San Durango coming from far back got to Tom Colline in the stretch and easily beat him home by a length.
Maggie Davis was a natural third. Wild Pirate and Sad Sam, two of the best 2-year-olds shown up here, met at equal weights, Sad Sam being In receip: of a gelding allowance in a race at five furlongs, and after a close and exciting struggle from the head of the stretch tome, Wild Pirete won by a hose, Jockey Winkfield rather outfinishing Van Dusen. The win of Admetus in the two-mile race was due in great measure to Winkfleld's good management, although Poole's gelding was the best in the race. Nailer was made favorite on the strength of his showing in the Bush cup, but he was never dangerous. Possum made the runfor the first mile, then Admetus took the ning lead, and, being rated nicely, won easily by two lengths from Monongah, who beat Possum by a reck for the place.
Warrior won the last race in a fighting Anish with Dandy H. The horses scatter from here, the most and best of them going to Memphis. Ten stables, including those of A. H. D.
H. Morris, William M. Barreck, and T. Al. Magee, go to Washington.

Below will be found a few Interesting facts concerning handicap figures, which were presented to the public in the sporting columns of The Inter Ocean during the past week. During the week the track at New Orleans has been in very bad condition, and, as it has also been get-away week, all the drawbacks that a handicapper has to contend with were present. However, I think under any: condition the results that have been shown must be convincing that there is something to figures.
Thus far I have given figures on sixtysix races. After making the scratches it will be found that I had 113 horses in the money out of a possible 198. In order to show how atten 80- cidents occur, below is a list of horses that I had figured to win who met with a few at New Orleans: Troubaline, off bad, could not get up; Strangest, ridden all over the track; Aurea, pocketed all the way; Double Dummy, weak effort on the part of Jockey Mitchell, and was kept on the outside of the track all the way; Joe Bell, in the jumping race, ran out; Anxious, as good as left at the post. At Tantoran park Miss Marion bumped against Mountebank, killing any chance she might have had to win; Bendoran ran wide on the stretch turn; Cumbermerle, for some unknown reason, was pulled up at the start. Later on when the tracks are in better condition I will give a more complete statement showing the result of close figuring and the outcome after jockeys have been substituted in place.
of those given with the handicap figures, A verv essential point that must be observed the changing of jockeys. The importance of this fact has been proven during the past week. March 21. at Tanforan park, Moonbright was entered. In his previous race Bozeman rode him to a mark of 1230, but on this day Henry rode him.
In the prepared list of Jockeys you will find that Henry is shown to be twenty-three points better than Bozeman. Therefore, subtract 28 from 1230, and you have 1207, which are Moonbright's figures, and there could not be found at the track Jockey, according to these figures, who, could be placed on any other colt in the race and give Moonbright a beating. COG. Colonel Letcher in Town. Colonel William Letcher, one of the best-known borse breeders of Kentucky, and erstwhile assistant to Secretary Kuhl of the Hawthorne race track, arrived in town yesterday to look the ground over.
The probability is that this year Secretary Kuhl will preside at the track, and Colonel Letcher will officiate as secretary. The colonel has many friends among the race men of the country, and his appointment to the position would give great satisfaction to all of them. He is well versed in turf matters, and is an authority on horse matters. Linotype Composition.

ENTRY LIST IS LARGE Many High-Class Horses Named in the Early-Closing Events. Management Talk of Reviving the Chicago Derby with 87,500 as the Winner's Share.
Entries for the Chicago Jockey club's stake events to be run at the spring meeting at the Hawthorne track this year are unusually large In number and include nearly every thoroughbred of note in the West and South, and a fair delegalion from the East. These nominations are for the seven spring stakes only. Later in the sea60E, probably about the first week in June, the management will open about sixteen additional stake events to be run off at the summer and fall meetings. Among these will be a number of rich stakes for 2-year-old and 3-year-old colts, and similar stakes for 2-year-old and 8-year-old fillies, all of which will be worth at each. By that time racing in the South will have afforded a pretty fair line on the merits of.
the various animals in training, and conditions can be more intelligently arranged than at present. There is also a strong chance that the Hawthorne management may revive the Chicago Derby, which in past years has been a very attractive features at the Cicero track. The officers of the Chicago Jockey club bave the matter under consideration and are inclined to offer inducements that will tend to make the race second in Importance only to the American Derby. It is proposed to offer $5,000 added money, conditional on the comination of at least fifty of the horses now engaged in the Washirgton Park Derby, the entrance tea to be $25 each, and $75 more to start. This would make the first money worth something like $7,500, and insure a race of exceptional interest.
Steeplechasing will be a feature at Hawthorne this year, as usual, but will be run on a more liberal scale than ever before. In addition to the ordinary purse races the club will offer at least four good-sized stakes, that will attract the best of the cross-country timber jumpers from the East and from Canada. Hawthorne has made steeplechasing very popular in this part fo the West, even when conducted on the smallpurse plan, and with liberal stakes as an added inducement the management believe the sport will assume the importance which attaches to it in England, where the Grand National and simflar events rank second only to the Derby and Oaks. Entries for the Spring Stakes. The seven spring stakes for which the entries are now at hand will all be decided at the openirg meeting of the Hawthorne track, which will begin in the latter part of May or early in June.
Manager McEvoy ct the Chicago Jockey club gives the official list of nominations to these events as follows: EnStake. Age. Dist. tries. Turf Congress (hdcp) .3 and un 1 1-16 mle 91 June and up mie 73 Flight (selling) and 6 fur Speculation (selling) and up 1 mie 107 Juvenile years 5 fur 96 Test (selling).
years fur 88 Hawthorne years 5 fur 102 Total 647 This is an average of ninety-two entries for each stake, very gratifying increase over the showing made in similar early closing events in previous years. Besides this, the class of horses engaged is unusually high, nearly all the cracks from tb3 West and South and several from the East having heen nominated. Considered from the standpoint of money value, the Turf Congress handicap is the most important fixture on the spring card. In this there are ninety-one entries, making a total in nominating fees of $910. Allowing that only ten start, which is a very modest estimate, as every one of the animals engaged is already in racing form, the additional starting tee of $50 each will bring the full amount thus collected up to $1,410.
This, with the $2,000 added money, will bring the total value of the stake up to 3,500. Entries for Turf Congress Handicap.

Was not more credit due Poe for his momentous drop kick than his fluke run of the year before?

Special Correspondence of The Inter Ocean.
NASHVILLE, March Cumberland park is DOW in an excellent condition for the spring meeting. The large number of thoroughbreds in training at the park are stepping briskly, and with few exceptions are in good shape for the opening races. It is the purpose of the Tennessee Breeders' association to place three judges in the stand during the spring meeting, all to have equal powers. Propositions have been made to three of the best-known judges in the country, but as yet the contracts have not been fully closed. Tom Ryan's horses, now in training here, lack only the finishing touches to fit them for racing.
Count of Flanders, who won the Balboa Boulevard stakes, and other races on the Pacife slope In 1838. and who was a good winner the year previous, is again in training under Ryan's care, after a long rest, and is acting like a new horse. St. Simonian, The Roman, Golden Link, and Count of Flanders have each worked miles recently in less than 2:00, and other members of the string have breezed at shorter distances in good time. The George M.
Hendrie stake now numbers fourteen horses. The topnotcher of the string is Pharaoh. The fastest mile up to this time is to the credit of Tom Ryan's big horse, St. Simonian, who negotiated the distance several seconds less than 2:00. On looks, one would judge him to be in good racing form.
The Roman also worked a mile in a little better than 2:00. Solon, the stable's dependence to win the Turf Congress special, worked five furlongs at a tair rate of speed, while some of the 2-year-olds were sent quarters in from twenty-five to twenty- seconds.
