E18,-In the interests of sport and good

fellowship I much regret to ees in your issue of to-day a very epitoful anonymous letter signed Old Oar," which reads to me as the outpouring of a deeply disappoisted mind. I also regret that I have to write publicly upon pricate matters, and avi only constrained to do ao by a sense of plain duty. It is stated that Mr. Master kept Legacy in the stable instead of maning her in the Cosmopoliton Stakes, the a parent imputation being that he sacrificed her chances to these of his own animals. I mast prest me that “Old Oar" knows that I and not Mr. Master am ber owner. Mr. Muster has ever exercised the slightest control over the running of the aufmel, which was left

The facta as to her not be in danger, since it can scarcely be doubledanning is the Cosmopoliton Stakes are that either the artision of China or the establishment of free trade-ous or other of which might as likely as not have been the result of the Chinese anti-foreign uprising of

1900 would involve the abolition of the Customs service over which he presides. Your contention that Sir Robert Hart wrote in a tone of warning to the Western powers, not of encouragement to Chine," seems to me to be disproved by contemplation of the whole matter from the beginning. Having paid careful attention to this amongst other coses of assist ance being rendered to the Chinese by foreign. vis, either perennially or as occasion required, and the dire results both to China and foreign ers elten accruing therofrom, and lasing had exceptional opportunities of forming what I feet sure is a correct view of the maltor, I think that tho

I was mulle to go to the conres in the early morning of Salarday and was engaged on important busi mess during the whole of the forenson, so could not make any enquiries as to likely runners Had I been able to attend to racing affairs and known that the field was likely to bo a small one, I should probably have us the mare, for
