A message from Berlin conveys the information that the Racing Commission, in belatedly attempting to purge German racing, the rottenness of which has become a by-word in Europe, has cancelled the licenses of the three leading jockeys— Kaspar, Rastenberger, and Blame—for life.

The crooked alliance of these riders with bookmakers has been clearly proved; bat the public continues to demand the purging of swindling bookmakers, owners, and trainers.—London cable.
