Thsre seems to be little doubt that August Belmont is " '.' the moving, spirit in a ayndlcate which seeks, with apparently good prospects or success, U ths rsc tracks , in the est "Already Mr Belmont owns the , crest Belmont Perk course, the Ben nlngs and Kenllwortn tracks. He Is bsck of the new track which Is to go upneer Bostoit in New England, and there Is good resson to believe the Grsvesend and-Aqueduct tracks are new 'under ne gotiation. This would leave Brighton ' Beach and 8hepshead Bay outside, and as Mr.' Belmont-and his friends are In terested to seme extent in both, it is -v not unlikely they both jlll come inte the fold. , . . It is this whlchls believed to be at the bottom of the Indlspoeitlon of Gov ernor Hlgglna to reappoint Mr. Belmont as the bead of the racing commission. " As chairman of the Jockey club, chair man of the racing commission snd practical owner of alfthe race tracks about New York.1.Mf. Belmont would , hold a unique position on the Amerlcsn turf, and there Is grave ooubt in the mtads of many horsemen if ttils con centration of Interests would Mrfor the good ot the sport. v There Is reason to fesr that someof the op-state legislators have their eye 1 - on racing In no irlendly spirit, and witB ' ons man.

It Is" known that a goodly number of the Mets are -none too'ell off in the way of ready cash. TheNreme is too X strong for s. lot of them. V . -. t. "u. On Suburban day they were, fighting because they all could not get- places to book, but now there is space In niontv tnr them. : ' ,f ' , l- would not have aired if the Mets j, A sons -on strike and refused to book " at both Sraveeend' and 8heepshead. said ens of the members after, the" laar race.

That " demonstration seems tbf nave been the dying fjurry of the Mets. and they have " ' taken their medicine since wtthjuVV , a wry fsce. . .- - . - There are so many valuable stakes yet ' for decision within the eighteen -days ' of the July meeting at Coney Island thst few owners can resist the tempta tion to-runthelr horses, even though . repeated . races may reveal a loss of freshness, which oecomes apparent even -V to the inexpert. But. the Coney Island Jockey club course is sd convenient ot ' access snd the racing there is so. keenly """"tenjoyed thst owners may be pardoned for endeavoring toT win all" the rich stakes possible In presence of the larg est assemblages which visit any of the ' metronalltsn courses.

The gen oral understanding Is that the old scale will be put In force at the fait meetings - r hereabout but this belief Is backed by nothing- official. While th "Impression ", Is that the track owners have not found the experiment altogether profitable. H would be Interesting to know the exact figures as regards the attendance at Oravesend and Sheepshead Bay since the -raise in -the -price of 'admission,. ?That the grandstand haa lost in numbers has i -been evident every da, but to what ex tent Is the eecret-of the association. -.
