WHITNEY SAILS FOR HOME SPECIAL CABLEGRAM. LONDON, England, April 1. John Hay Whitney, whose jumper, Sir Lindsay, finished third in the Grand National Steeplechase last week, is sailing for home at once. He will leave Easter Hero and Sir Lindsay here and they will be prepared for the cross-country classic next year. Easter Hero fell lame while in training for the race this year. Trainer Jack Anthony is now combing the market for two good jumpers, which his employer has commissioned him to purchase for the purpose of starting in the Grand National Steeplechase at Belmont Park in the fall. Mr. Whitney recently bought three three-year-olds. .
