The following resolution was adopted: "Resolved, That the stewards of the Jockey Club desire to advise the various associations racing under their rules that the entries of horses by married men shall not be received so long as-their wives remain in the forfeit list." George B. Pattersons application that the decision under which the entries of the horse Burlesque are refused on all Jockey Club courses be rescinded is denied.
