HARROW AUTUMN RACES.--THeßst.Ay.

The Harrow meetings have been so associated with wet
and disagreeable weather, that to inaugurate one in bril-
liant sunshine is a fact worthy to be chronicled. The air
was indeed keen and invigorating. but this rendered it all
the more enjoyable and seasonable for steeplechasing. The
company was not so large as we have seen it at this meet-
ing, but no doubt this is attributable to the near approach
of the Liverpool Cup, may of the London division having
left for Liverpool to-day. Following Bromley also seemed
to affect the numerical strength of the fields, but alto-
gether the opening day was very pleasant and successful,
while the sport was interesting, the absence of objections
being a fact the committee may congratulate themselves
on. The running does not require any comments, as every
detail is appended. Them was a long delay at the post
in the Selling Stakes, but the starter very properly re-
ported the most disobedient of the jockeys, and they were
fined—Marsh, two soya., and A.Spencer and Penfold one soy.
each. During the afternoon there was some attempt to
bet on the Liverpool Cup, but backers were so scarce that
little business was done.

Serious Case and Jassy now came on in close company,
but the last mentioned went to the front at her rider's
pleasure, and wou in a canter by six lengths. The
favourite was remounted, and finished a bad third. Kan-
garoo stumbled and fell in the middle of the second field

post occurred before a start could be effected, occasioned
principally by the anxiety of Marsh, Fanfold, and A.
Spencer, who were afterwards reported to the stewards,
and fined respectively 2 soya., 1 soy., and 1 soy., for
disobedience to the starter. When despatched Variation
took up the running, followed by Bumboat and Feemy to
the distance, where Vicious gave way, and Feemy chal-
lenged, defeating Variation, after a rattling finish, by a
bead. A length and a-half separated second and third,
Vicious was fourth, Kaffir's Land fifth, Maid of Burghley

but before reaching the stand the favourite held • alight
lead of Oldminster, Miss Franklin, and La Pique. After
clearing the water jump, the last-named again took the lead,
she, however, overpowered Kennedy on clearing the third
fence from home and ran on, leaving the favourite with a
clear lead of Oldminster, Miss Franklin, and Rapture.
After clearing the hurdles Janie made determined efforts
with Oldminster, but was never able to reach Red Rose,
who won very easily by a length. Rapture, hard ridden,
finished three lengths from Oldminster, and a similar dis-
tance in advance of Mime Franklin, who was eased in the
last fifty yards. Beverley and La Pique trotted in fifth
and sixth. Penelope walked in with the crowd, but
Idonope came to grief three fences from home. The winner

THI OR.IICTION TO REPORTER AT WORCEsTER. —At
Liverpool yesterday (Thursday) morning Lord Youlett and
Lord 113stetnan entertained the objection lodged against Re-
porter, who c►me in first for the Grand Annual Steeple-
chase, and decided en under:—" Having heard the evi-
dence relative to the objection against Reporter for the
Worcester Steeplechase, we are of opinion that the horse
went the right course, and we therefore award hint the
race,- —(Signed) POULMIT, BATEMAN."

THE SHEFFIELD FILE TRADE. —At the monthly!
delegate meeting of Mesmiths held at Sheffield on Wed-
uesday evening, some time was occupied in considering
the advisability of establishing a board of arbitration and
conciliation in connection with the tile trade. The meet-
ing adopted the following resolution : " That thi.+ meeting
recommend the delegates present to consult with their
several employers, and ascertain whether they are willing
to co-operate in the formation of a board of arbitration
and conciliation to settle any disputes that may front time
to time arise in the trade resrecting prices and other
matters as between employers and employed, and to re-
port the result of their interviews at the next delegate
meeting." It was stated that certain persons outside were
waiting upon file manufacturers asking them to co-operate
in the formation of a court of arbitration. In doing this
those persons represent themselves as acting on behalf of
the file trade, with the sanction of its officers and repre-
sentatives. It was explained to the meeting that these
representations are quite untrue ; that, in fact, the repro•
sentatives of the file trade have given no sanction what-
ever to the proceedings in question, having, in fact, never
been consulted about them in any way.
