HAWTHORNE OPENS MONDAY, Racing will be resumed at Hawthorne tomorrow with a card that promises a fair quality of • sport. While many of the best horses have been sent east to Saratoga and Sheepshead Bay and will remain away for at least a month, their places in the Hawthorne stables have been taken by a new installment of high class selling : platers and some fairly good stake animals. V. M. Civill got in yesterday with Battus, Chap-paqua and others. "Senator" OBrien will arrive - from St. Louis tomorrow morning with a 1 ,-t ring of twelve u.-eful animals, and Sam Hil-| dreth is on his way to the Cicero track with a 1 hunch of twenty-five horses of various grades. . .

The track at Hawthorne has been worked into first-class condition and a number of minor improvements has been made in the stand and buildings. Owing to the large attendance at the last meeting, which was a record breaker at Hawthorne, arrangements have been made with the Illinois Central, Burlington and elevated lines to run extra trains so as to accommodate all patrons with seats both going: and returning. One of Mr. Corrigaus friends at Hawthorne has received a letter from the old "Master of Hawthorne," in which the latter intimates that he may remain in England another year. Mr. Corrigan ha procured a trainers license and will supervise the working of his horses. He reached England too late to do much this year, and thinks that a winters rest on the other side will unable him to bring his horses to the post in shape to get some of the rich stakes. It is probable Mr. Corrigan may leave his stable in Wishards care while he makes a run over to America later in the year, but it is not likely that he will he identified with racing on this side for some time to come. Color is given to this view by recent developments in California, where the racing properties which Mr. Corrigan haB hitherto controlled have passed into other hands. The men now in charge of these tracks are not identified with the Corrigan interests, and he is not the sort of a man to allow others to manage a track for which the public hold him responsible.
