The activity of the judges today in haling several alleged offenders before" them had a beneficial effect and improved the lone of the. racing. While iio action other than the suspension of jockey Farrow for the meeting took place, the warning administered to others is expected to have a salutary effect.

The investigation of the inconsistent form of Cha-nate was dismissed this afternoon, the owner claiming, he did not bet on the mare yesterday. She will be- tubbed in future, and another acrobatic showing on her part will cause the stables debarment from further racing hero. ; There was a plunge in the opener on Dry Dollar, but whatever chances he might have had went glimmering, shortly after the start, when he was knocked but of contention. Jockey Davenport was suspended for two days and Fogg for three by the starter for disobedience. W. C. Daniels will ship his horses to Oklahoma City Saturday.
