GOSSIP OF THE TURF. "Pleasant relations will exist between the New California Jockey Club and the Los Angeles Jockey Club," says a special dispatch of Dec. 13, from San Francisco to the Morning Telegraph. "President Thomas H. "Williams and Vice President Adam Andrew went to the southern city on the invitation of the jockey club people there, and a conference was held. Matters of mutual interest were discussed, and later it was announced that complete harmony will prevail. It was decided that the Los Angeles Jockey Club will become a member of the Pacific Jockey Club, and together with the New California Jockey Club it will work for the interests of racing in California. An agreement was reached that trainers and jockeys who hold licenses issued by the Pacific Jockey Club, which governs racing on the coast, will not have to secure an additional license to race at Ascot Park if they already are provided for at the tracks of the California Jockey Club." Telegrams from Barney Schreiber were re ceived recently by Superintendent W. A. Kirwan of "Woodlands, instructing him to notify the Kinloch Association that 00 and a suitable trophy would be offered by Schreiber as additions to the Woodlands Stake for two-year-olds at next springs meeting. Secretary Chew of the association says that the stake list for the meeting has been prepared, and that the added money next spring would be greater than that of last season. The Mound City Derby will be carded again and the Inaugural will open the meeting.
