'The Butterflies" waa all that could be hearda'.] day >e*terdey. In street cars, on the elevatedtratns. In the hole", corridor*, everybody seemedto have j; ne daft on the great filly. On all side*her victory was* conceded to be phenomenal, and

h*r trainer. .1. J. Hyland, wa* lauded to th*

skies. There ls not a question as to her superiorityover her oppanent*. The delay at the post and

every incident of the race only goes to show that

The Butterflies has fairly snd honestly earned her

title as the champion two-year-old of ls*"!. David

3'deon was warmly congratulated hy his friends

when he appened at Delmonico'* yesterday Mr

Gideon sad tint he r ur-" ad deeply his haste In

-ec arlng the tilly out tt the Matron Stakes. The

PullaaSlBB appears to be all right and shows no

hard effects from the long delay and the fiercelycontested race of Saturday. It ls extremely jiroha-,*>le that The Butterflies will race again during the

present meeting at Sheepshead Bay.The Futurity ls a stake that has been Imitated

by other racing clubs with disastrous results to

the Imitators. Although there are certain things

Boost the condition* of the race which some per¬

sons believe are detrimental to the turf, lt has lieen

a great ruccoitft to the Coney Island Jockey Club,and ls one of the really popular two-year-old stakes

run In this country.There are more horses In training at the Long

Island tracks than ever before. High class racingshould be the rule throughout the meeting.There are rumors that a startling exposure of the

running of a well-known three-year-old at Sara¬

toga will be made public next week. A bookmakerand a Jockey are staid to be implicate!. The owner

af the three-year-old ls a millionaire from the West.

Tr_atworthy report* say that ti. (1. Waibaum wli!

control the running meeting lo be held at Providence.lt. I. How strange lt ls that whenever a new racingassociation ls established the leading men on the

turf permit men like Waibaum or Engeman to ota-

ta.n control of lt and to conduct lt under the Out-tenburg or Gloucester system, lt is a well-knownfact that many of the most prominent men In the

State of Rhode Island are anxloua to establish a

Jockey club and to have nothing but flrst-cla*s rac¬

ing. The proprietary tracks In this neighborhoodhave taught turfmen a lesson that seems lo have

been lost on some leading men who should unite

with the best element in every State to place racing

under the management of respectable persons and

cause the gambling element to remain in the back¬

ground.BOSTON PEOPLE SHOPED BE ON THEIR

GUARD.Boston may become a racing centre. There are a

large numtier of wealthy men who earnestly desire

to organise a Jockey club which will compare with

any In the world. Before this Jockey club can be

organized successfully the Legislature wi'.l be asked

1" i lace a law on the statute book of Massachusettssimilar to the Ives Poul law In this State. That

such a law can be secured by the men who are

anxious to form a Jockey club. If they ask for lt. ls

extremely likely. Everybody who has the slightestinterest In the welfare of the turf ls anxious to see

racing established as a sport In the neighborhood of

Boston. Breeder* would be benefited, the leadingstables would have a market for their horses when

outclassed, and there would be an Increased demandfor trainers and others who make their livelihoodon the turf.But Massachusetts ls also threatened with an In¬

vasion of the very worst element that Infests the

turf. A clique of gamblers has held sway for years

In the State, and has Joined hands In an effort to

despoil the citizens of Boston and Its vicinity bymeana of racing. It ls probable that an applicationfor a license will be made to the Jockey Club bythe managers of this scheme. As racing with bet¬

ting ls con'rary to the law In Massachusetts, the

Jockey Club ls certain to refuse the application.Even If lt were lawful to race with betting, the

members of the Jockey Club are striving to elevate,not to degrade, th? sport, and consequently a promptrefusal of the proposed application would be almost

certain.BROOKDALE YEARLINGS TO BE SOLD.

"* 'The Brookdale yearlings are expected to arrive at

the American Horse Exchange on Wednesday. Theyare said to be a superior lot of youngsters in every

respect. The low market that has prevailed for

yearlings this year has not dep-rred Colonel Thomp¬son from offering the Brookdale youngsters for sale,nn 1 many bargains may be obtained. The sterlingqualities of Brookdale-bred horses are well known

to racegoers who have so often witnessed their tri¬

umphs.James B. Haggin ls pleased with his recent Im¬

portations, lt ls probable that the yearlings andthe Hamptm-Orn ini'nt two-year-old will be trained

by Marr ticw Allen.Clifford was withdrawn on Saturday from the Fal'/

Handicap, lt was reported that Eugene Leigh and

Robert Rose, his partner, had a misunderstandingIn regard to the matti r. There was no misunder¬standing whatever. Clifford ls to be sold on Sat¬

urday, and ls extremely valuable In the eyes of on*

of the firm. Mr. Leigh was confident that Cliffordcould win the race, but he realized that If by anychance the horse was beaten, all the blame wouldrest on his shoulders, and on that account bothjenners decided to let Clifford remain In the stable.Some of the pessimists of the turf say that there

ls no future for Henry of Na\arre In thia country,and that his owner should ship him to England.where he would have a chance to receive fair treat,ment. One of these men wns especially bitter lt*, hisremarks, and expressed lrmself as follows: "Agood hcrae 1 k-> Naval re, owned by n man like Bvron.dc "Ul..md. has no chance In his four-year-oldform. In the first place, he las to go up againsta "shade" tn favor of ci nain 'ables. There are no

valuable races, except two ha >dlcaps, In which hewill be asked to concede welglt to everything thatstart*, and ls likely to become thc victim of aromblnatlon of thc horses opposed to him." As thisman has Leen airing a grievance for two years,little attention was paid to his remarks.

TBAITS OF THE "OFFICIAL ADVISER."Nearly every leading owner on the turf has a fol¬

lower who is known to the turfmen about thecity under the name of "official adviser." Every¬body who frequents thc racetracks ls familiar withthe apjicarance of the official adviser. As a rule, hels more in evidence than the owner. The officialadviser baoks wise and walks about as if the entirecare and trouble Incidental to the managementof a large racing establishment rested ofl hisshoulders. Many of the reports that horses havebeen pulled emanate from these men. Some ofthem have nested away to mere shadows on ac¬count of their loss of sleep, due to worrying over

the fear that In some possible manner designingpersons may separate the persons whom theyadvise from their monev. official advisers ha\esecrets haled up and stored away for future use.

lt ls really grewaome to hear some of their storiesof fabulous losses caused liv mercenary Jockeyswho accept bribes. Hard-luck stories are kept on

tap and are retailed by the yard. Old turfmendo not mind the official adrtseru, but the gulliblePhiladelphia!;* and other rustics accept their wordsas gospel truths.Somebody who has changed his smoking quarters

too abruptly has started a rumor that Tremontwas n three-vear-ol,J when he swept all the two-year-old stakes off thc board In thc East. Ther.tory ls too ridiculous for any attentlcn. as everyhour of the black whirlwind's life can be ac¬

counted 'or. lt sounds like the story of an officialadviser mho mn caged to catch an editor fromHoop Pole County.

SIRE OF VI'-TORV THIS YEAR.

Among .he Congress districts which will resume

their place in the Republican column this fall lsthe Vth of New-Jersey, which occupied a prominentpla e in National affairs Whefl represented byWilliam Walter Phelps. At that time the dis¬trict wa t composed of Pad.alC, Morris nnd Bergencounties, and was Republican. The State was

gerrymandered by the Democrats. Morris Countybeing taken away and part of Hudson County be¬ing added to the district. Similar carving thnnif-rh-out the State resulted In the election of seven

Democratic Congressmen out of nine In 1W, al¬though Cleveland eaIliad the State by only 11.Sk.plurality The district ls now represented by Cor¬nelius A. Cadmus, and ls a stronghold of Protec¬tion. Its two largest cities, Paterson and Passaic,being living monuments to the success of theProtective policy, both having suffered severelyduring the suspense of the last eighteen months.The Legislature ha* restored th" district to itsformer linen, with the- exception that Morrl*County |a i.~ft out. and Mr. Phelps, If alive, wouldbe able to recognise his old district. The normal

Republican majority ls about I.1'1", and the recentupheavals ard astonishing Republican victories InIt.-rgen County may result in the doubling of thatfigure. \s r. sm, County bas twice had thenomination. Berren County la likely to get lt thistime, and lt ls pleasant to note that all the candi¬dates prominently mentioned for the honor w-re

close friends and political associates of Mr Phelps.Among them are Donald Mackay, the New-Torki,iink~~r. who has declined to run; Clarence K.Breckenridge, of the State Bepiihllcan Commute* ;J. Hull Browning, president of the Northern Rail¬road of New-Jersey, and ex-Surrogat" AckermanPell.In this list, als i, ts ch.arl»s Burrowa, whose pros¬

pects of Retting the n>minatIon are bright, becauseof his popularity in Paterson, as well as In BergenCounty, and who was ona of the most trusted lieu-ten mts of Mr. Phe'.p*.

J., ar.d onhls being replaced by B

Democrat he was elected Collector of Rutherfordagilnst a popular Democrat by DI majority, head¬ing bli ticket. Iii case the nomination goes toPaterson. "Dominie" Robinson, an old and activeRepublican, seems to have the best chance. Onthe' Democratic sile, lt la known that Mr Cadmusw in] 1 Ilk- a renomination. The situation waa

summed tip briefly by a Beraten County Demo¬cratic leader, who said la a Tribune reporter a

day or two ag":"We can't carry the district thi* year, and we'd

rather see Cadmua slaughtered than a good man.

He betrayed his parry at Washington, and we willge ven with him. I would vote for Cadmus at theconvention, but not at the ballot-box."
