THE CAULFIELD CUP.
(F.Y TEL]'..: LIAPH. — OWN COKRESI'ON-. ENT.)
DusEiux, this day
The "Star" correspondent, writing rt the Caulfield Cup, says that large sums were avoii by Chicago's victory, nnd he knows one bookmaker who netted £10,000, while another who went blind on the Charmer lose nearly £50,000. There wiiS a nice little row in the jockeys' room when the race was over. Sanders accused Garry of deliberately cro^i.aij; in from., of Spade Guinea when she was a little more than a quarter of a mile from home. Some high words ensued, and an apj^-il was made to fisticufts, in which Sand.-.iy waa the augres ; Bpr. The quart el has been brought under the notice of tho stewards, as well as tim subject matter (yf it,for adjudication. Sonic of tlie jockeys empha ieally endorse Sanders's view, while others declare that ,the cross was unintentional. A cross there certainly Avas, aad ie most materially prejudiced Spade Guinea's chance.
