Crouch will carry the Cumberland Stable and Tennessee Stable colors during the Chicago season. The latter stable, owned by J. M. Houghland, has the two-year-olds Betty Rye, Cousin Judy, To Now, Soon Enough and Adsum, and older Clover Bottom, Wild Child and Stone Martin, while the Cumberland Stable, maintained by Crouch and J. W. Russwurm, will race Tom Vernia, Lady Shamrock and Lady Ara, the latter being a two-year-olds. In addition to Paul Bunyan, winner of the Dixie Handicap, L. M. Severson, local owner, has Otilla, Dr. Bidencope, Bumpsie Ray, Buster B. and Volta Maid at Lincoln Fields in charge of Frank Rector. Arthur B. Hancock, master of the Clai-bourne and Ellerslie studs, was among the numerous prominent Kentuckians up for the holiday sport. He spent much of the afternoon with his friend Stuyvesant Pea-body, vice president of the Washington Park Jockey Club. The Tennessee Breeders Associations Adsum, a programed starter for the first race, injured himself while in the paddock and was excused by the stewards. Jockey John Maiben decided to try his luck in the West and arrived here this morning from New York. He will ride freelance and should command his share of mounts. Playtime, the Southland Stables good son of My Play, may be shipped here from La-tonia to contest the Francis S. Peabody Memorial Handicap. Herbert M. Woolf was an arrival from Kansas City for his first visit of the meeting. His stable is here in charge of Dan Stewart. The Valley Lake Stable is releasing jockey J. Marcum from the contract held on his services and the young rider will free lance for the present. Copies of the second issue of conditions for the racing from Wednesday, June 3, to Thursday, June 16, inclusive, were distrib- uted among the horsemen today. Edward F. Prichard, owner of the good handicap performer, Tannery, came up from his Ashburne farm in Kentucky to witness the effort of that good son of Ballot in the Robert M. Sweitzer Handicap. Sally Irene, half-sister to Tannery, which Prichard sold as a yearling to T. E. Nash, of Chicago, is entered for one of Mondays races. She is trained by J. J. Greely, who also looks after Tannery and other of the Prichard racers.
