Peter Sterling Wins Berkeley
Handicap at Emeryville
J. R. Jeffery
Tracing at Kmeryville yesterday was
over a we! track for the first time this
reason. Tli^ vain whi-'n ff!l during thf>
forenoon mado th" going slippery and
slow, but the tra'-k was n>H at all deep.
Despite the lack of lo<\sl mud form on
some of the short priced starters, the
racing was fairly formfnl. mo card be
ing: evenly divided between first, sec
ond and third choices. The attendance
was surprisingly g<»«»d. considering the
climatic conditions.
The l>crkfk'v hainiirap. air?i r? mile and
en eighth, proved ea^y for the favorito.
Peter Sterling. Edward Trotters clevor
son of Ix>rd Ks;orling-L.ufrece picked
up top wight of 117 pounds and gal
loped ovor his field at the will of his
rider. Dollfe Dollars was the early
paoe maker and hung on surprisingly
v-fll until the field was well into the
stretch. Then ?ho stopped to a walk.
HuOolph Ppreckels' San Alviso had been
laying along second all the way ar.d
made a bid for the purse v.h»n the
pace maker quit, but labored in the go
ing toward the end and was no match
for Peter Sterling when Jockey More
land :nade bis challenge and had to be
content with second place*, nearly three
lengths behind the favorite. Red I^eaf,
after a stormy journey, wound up a
dUtant i»ut safe third.
Unfashionable Jockeys carried on* the
lion's share of the spoils. Walter Mil
ler failed to land his usunl winner and
finished outside the money with three
of liis five mounts.
MILI.KR FAILS TO IAXD
In *plte of having run disgracefully
bed in both of his previous starts as
the ptiblic -fchoice, Heather Scott was
installed favorite for the opener, it be
ing figured thr.t the soft going would
suit him perfectly, and so it did. John
nie Hayes laid > lost- io tii<- pace made
by Jork«*y Moume and Galmoore in the
early part and his mount breezed to
the front in the stretch and won in a
pallop. The 50 lo l sli«tt beat Strat
Martin by over a : length for V.it p!a<-e.
Emr.ia G, the second choice, was left
at* the post. !ior rider, J. Carroll, being
as!eep when t!ie barrier went up. The
filly, in spite of- her reputation as a
good mudder. had receded from 2s to
•4s in the betting".
Jockey Ross, tossed off the second
race a'ter appearing to have it won
v.-ith Oreston Boy. the odds on favorite.
Agnola, the. second choice, won by a
head nftcr seeminj? to be hopelessly
beaten entering the stretch.
Serenity, at 8 to 1. scored handily in
the third. Outrun as usual the first
part, she overtook the leaders at the
last turn and b«-at thorn to the wire
under well judged handling l>v Chris
Miller. Ambitions, a 50 to 1 shot, on
which Sockey Horel had the mount!
beat ' Sea Air. Walter Miller's mount,
and the liot Up of the race, for place
by a head. Meada. the favorite, was
tho"i< il'.n of a shockingly^bad ride by
T Tlicc
' The betting in the fifth was. of the
.kaleidoscopic sort. San Nicolas. Kir
Brillar and Blondy alternating in fa
voritism at various stages of the play,
bui San Nicolas, the opening 1 favorite,
vv.nt to the post the public cnoice.
Re&gie Davis beat the gate with him
..Cn-d lie showed the way iuto the stretch,
jbqt3Euost£)r and Sir Brillar both passed
•\u25a0lllnY ja the final sixteenth.
ijLOXDV first to wire
. ; '.Fish"r>r Boy proved a false favorite in
the concluding race of the day, 1 the
"boojt' jr.akers taking advantage of Mil
ler's presence in the saddle to hold him
&t' a shorter price than his recent form
warranted. He could never get to the
front, ar.d steadily falling back in the
Btretcb run, he finished in the ruck.
Captain liuriiett. thft well backed third
choire. flashed to the front on the back-
Stretch run and was never again bead
ed, although Martinmas, running a sur
prtslngiy pood race considering that
the track conditions were supposedly
not to his liking, was pressing him
closeJy at the end. Etapa. always in
forward contention, finished a distant
ljut «asy third.
Gossip of the Track
;T,here was general surprise- at Em
eryville yesterday over announcement
that R. F. Carman. th.c wealthy New
York turfman, had decided to transfer
lus. entire stable of 50 horses to Arcadia
lor. the winter. Carman, It Is under
stood, privately informed several of his
intimates who stfught- an explanation
of his sudden change of plans that he
\u25a0was Inflcenced to transfer his stable
W-eause of th.^- failure of the local han
dlcapper to 'assign an impost to Rifle
man, winner of the Thanksgiving han
dicap, for the overnight handicap won
by Peter Sterling yesterday.
c It seems that Trainer Blute of the
Carman string entered Rifleman Mon
day for yesterday's race, but when the
\u25a0nights were posted Tuesday Rifle
man's name was missing from the list,
Handicappcr Egbert having, instead/
assigned an Impost to Acrobat from the
same stable by mistake. Blute refused
to be placated and Carman's announce
ment of his Intention to ship his entire
cctable to. Arcadia followed.
From the time of the Carman stable's
arrival he*re from New Tork it has be#n
persistently whispered that the string,
numerically the strongest in training
on the coast, •would be transferred to
1-os Angeles as soon as the new track
I at Arcadia was ready for opening. Car
man has diplomatically denied any such
Intention, however.
Guy Burn?, tlv* Carman jockey, de
parted for Los Angeles last night and
c the Carman horses wSil follow as soon
as express cars can be obtained to
transport them south. Trainer Blute
Ftated yesterday that he expected to
have his entire string at the Arcadia
track on Saturday, the opening day.
M'hile the depart ur.<} of the Carman
horses from Emeryville Is naturally re
jrrctted by many race goer*, their with
drawal will hardly affect the quality of
th^ racing. Thetys are stiir many more
horses In training at the Emeryville
cours» than are necessary to the suc
cessful conduct of the meeting.. The
opening of the Arcadia track has af
forded some relief from the congestion
which has been in evidence since the
rpening of the local season, but there
Is still room for further Improvement
in this respect.
The Sierra Nevada stable continues
to make an unexpectedly good showing.
Serenity
the mare that has won twice
within the week, was' offered for sale
prior to the opening of the local racing
eeason by A. F. Dayton for $700 and the
first puree she might win. Dayton prob
ably feels glad now that nobody had
the courage to take him up.
Andrew F. Elliott and P. J. Marron,
joint owners of Ocean Shore; have
fallen out over the management of the
fcorse and yesterdar Elliott brought «uit

disinclined to have him start as a hot
favorite In going that he might not
be able to negotiate. The horse was
able to run in the going, it turned out,
but lost the race, through the ovcrcon
fidencc of his rider.

Is Suspended
Following a report from Dr. Taylor,
the recently appointed official veterina
rian of the New California jockey club.
that an examination of Saint Modan, a
contestant in the first race of Tuesday,

tempt had been made to stimulate the

sion of O. F. Hume, trainer for the

done the doplnj?.
Hal Chase Refuses
to Come to Terms
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL
NEW YORK. Dec. 4.— Hal Chase still
refuses to communicate with the own
ers of the New York Amtrlcr.n league
club and it looks as though this Pacific
coast starjs determined to make a fight
against both- the national commission,
and his own club. Chase Is reported to
be still playing baseball under an
assumed name with the outlaws of the
coast, despite the orders and threats
that have been sent him from the east.
Chase evidently thinks that he is
within his rights and there is little
doubt that the courts of the land would
uphold him. But the action of Chase
In defying the rule makers is hurting
the game and the great first baseman
will surely have to submit to discipline
if he wants to play in major league
company again.
