THE HAYMARKET BASKET WOMEN AND THE POLICE.—
Six women, named Catherine Regan, Elizabeth Maria
Sayers, Elizabeth Miller, Elizabeth Jones, Mary M 'earthy,
and Catherine Ryan, were charged before Mr. Tyrwhitt
with obstructing the pathway with baskets containing fruit
and flowers.

Police-constable Laurence Poole, 301 A, said that shortly
before one o'clock that morning he saw the prisoners be-
tween the Haymarket and the Regent-circus, Piccadilly,
with largo baskets containing flowers and fruit. The
baskets, which were on the footway, caused such an ob-
struction that persons had to walk into the road to pass
along. He had cautioned the primers several times be-
fore, and finding that of no use, ho took thorn into custody.
Inspector Harrison said that the place was FO infested
with basket women at night that porsonsfound difficulty in
passing along the place.
The constable stated. that Ryan, lonel, and 11‘earthy
had been fined before for a similar offence—Ryan aad
Jones ss. each, and M'Carthy 2s. 6d. Ryan was very
drunk, and ho had groat trouble iu getting her to the
station.

Jones sail 3113 had a child sunring from disease of the
lungs; some of the other prisoners—for two or three
spoke at a time—said they had children to keep, while
others said they wore not causing any obstruction.
Mr. Tyrwhitt said it was impossible to overlook the
matter. He would find thorn 2s. 6d. each, and if they
came before him again they would be fined 40s. each.
WILFUL DAMAGE THROUGH RETENGE.—JuIia Fletcher,
a young woman, was charged with breaking a window at
the house of Mr. Cook, Great Windmill-street, con-
fectioner and refreshment-house keeper.
The prisoner went to Mr. Cook's yesterday, and said
that ss Mr. Cook had locked up h©r friend for breaking
his window he should go to the court again, and she then
broke a pane of glass of the value of 123., and was banded
over to Harris, 77 C.

IMPUDENT ROBBERY BY A SERVANT.—WiIIiam Ohara
potman to Mrs. Craddock, proprietor of the Gloucester
Arms, Rochester-row, Westminster, was placed at the bar
charged with robbing his employer of £5.
Mrs. Craddock said she gave him five sovereigns last
Saturday to get silver for, and he was never seen any
more of till last night.
Mr. Selfe asked how long he had been in the service ?
Mrs. Craddack said he had only been with them a week.
Police-constable 119 B said he apprehended the prisoner
last night in Castle-lane. He said when taken into custody
that he knew what it was for, he had got change and spent
all the money. _ _

Prisoner's mother produced a letter she had received from
her son, which she thought would operate in his favour,
and also pretended that she had given the information
which had led to his capture. The letter stated that he
had spont all the money, had no food for three days, and
was her contrite son.

Mr. Selfo asked whether he was known.
Mr. Craddock said he had lately found that ho had been
discharged by a former master for dishonesty, and his
mother was also aware of that fact.
Prisoner was committed for trial.

MARKETS.--This day.

MARK LANE.

There was a very poor show of English wheat hero to-
day. Tho attendance of both town and country millers
being limited, the demand for all kinds ruled inactive ;
nevertheless, Monday's prices were supported.
The imports of foreign wheat are over 40,000 quarters.
The show of samples was tolerably good, and sales pro-
gressed slowly, at late rates.
Floating cargoes of grain were rather heavy.
There was no English barley on sale, and the supply of
foreign was very moderate. All descriptions supported
late rates, with a fair inquiry.
We were fairly supplied with malt, which changed hands
slowly, on former terms.
The oat trade, owing to excessive importations, was
very inactive, at barely stationary prices.
Beans sold on full terms, although the inquiry for them
was by no means active.
Peas and flour were held at extreme rates. Supplies
were moderato.

SPORTING INTELLIGENCE.

GOODWOOD RACES-THURSDAY.

It is generally conceded that the Cup Day at Goodwood
attracts the most brilliant company of the whole week, and
to-day was no exception, the attendance, independently of
being the largest of the three days, being decidedly the
most select and aristocratic. The Prince of Wales and
Prince do Teck were again present, as were also the whole
of the distinguished party staying at Goodwood House,
the residence of the Duke of Richmond. The race of the
day was of course for the Cup, but it will be observed that
that valuable prize was contested for by the limited field of
five runners. Soon after assembling on the course it trans-
pired that the pen had been put through the name of
D'Estournel, and that Lecturer, the stable com-
panion of Vauban, would be an absentee. Consequent
upon these announcements the race was looked upon in
the light of a " moral "
.for the Duke of Beaufort's colt,
end general satisfaction was evinced when it became like'y
that the two groat events of the meeting would fall to the
nobl , Master of the Horse, the Duke of Beaufort, who had
already won the GJodwJo I Stakes with Gomera. Vauhau,
it is hardly necessary to say, won the Two Thousand, and,
after being a good favourite, ran third fer the Dark:. The
partisans of the Danebury stable have always maintained
that staying was the special forte of Vauban, and they
were greatly disappointed that he did not win the Derby,
contending that he could not have lost had there been a
good pace for Lim, Uncas entirely failing to fulfil his
mission to make the pace sufficiently strong to be of ser-
vice to the son of Muscovite. The Cup was set for
decision at the comparatively early hour of two o'clock,
and the appearance of the competitors, who were all
saddled prior to that time, created great interest.
When the flag fell, Fordham rushed to the front with Miss
Havelock to " take them along," and, owing to the zeal of
the jockey, the Northamptonshire Stake victress was at one
point of the race leading nearly a hundred yards. Her
stable companion was always at the head of the others,
and took up the running immediately she was in difficul-
ties. Daley called upon Regalia at the entrance into the
straight, but she died away after making a momentary
effort, and Tynedalo was left to do battle with Vauban.
Cameron rode with great determination, but Parry exer-
cised great patience, and the favourite won in almost a park
canter. Regalia was a bad third, and the issue proves,
wh t has long been suspected, that the mare cannot stay.

D' Estournel was struck out at 12.42, and Lecturer just
prior tO the start on the day of the race.
Betting-7 to 4on Vauban, 9to 4 agst Regalia, and 100
to 8 agst Tynedale. The preliminary canters were taken,
and the two favourites were eagerly scanned by their
respective admirers. Vauban, of course, received the lion's
share of attention; but Regalia, by her free style of going
and magnificent condition, gave renewed confidence to her
friends. After parading in front of thestand Mr. M'George
conducted the five competitors to the starting-post, and at
once relieved the suspense of the spectators by giving the
word to go. Fordham obeying his mission to
force the pace for the favourite, sent Miss Havelock to the
front, but althOugh she held a long lead she could go no
Lace, notwithstanding resolute riding. Vauban lay next,
about three-quarters of a length in advance of Tynedale,
clear of whotn came Lord Glasgow's colt, ii •galia bringing
up the rear. Beyond the fact that Miss Havelock increased
her lead to nearly 100 yards as they approached the
" Cluncp turn," and that the pace was wretchedly bad, no
variation occurred until they appeared in sight from be-
hind the hill, when the Toxo2holite cult was observed to be
in the rear of Regalia. The front rank hal also undergone
some change, Vanban now being in close :uteri:lam:3 on
Miss Havelock, and as they ascended the hill he took up
the running, closely attended, however, by his stable
companion, who gave way as they came into the straight,
dropping a long way to the rear of everything. Daley
now called upon Regalia, but, after a vain eff.ert, in which
she just succeeded in getting to Tyned de's quarters, she
died away to nothing, and the northern horse was alone
left to do battle with the formidable Vauban. Most do-
term,nedly did Cameron ride to overhaul the favourite, but
all his efforts were in vain, as Patty had but to sit and hold
the Two Thousand winner, who won in a canter by three
parts of a length. Regalia, completely pumped oat, was a
bad third, Lord Glasgow's colt and Miss Havelock being
beaten off. The time, as taken by Benson's chronograph,
was as follows : —Start, 2h. 6m. 303.; arrival, 2h. l lin. 503.
Duration of race, sm. 20s.

In addition to the livery and badge the first man
receives a guinea from the Fishmongers' Company,
the fourth man a guinea an 1 a half, and the fifth and
,ixth a guinea each from the same source. The second
and third men have long been provided for, the former
having Xi 173. 91., and the latter 183. 9d., interest of
Three per Cents. Reduced, formerly South Soa Stock, be-
queathed by Sir William Joliffe.
Exactly at four minutes after three a good start took
place. Taylor, of Lambeth, who had been under the train-
ing of Bob Bain, took the lead, but on nearing
Southwark Bridge the blade of one of his sculls
broke, which comp'.etely extinguished any chauc,3
he may have had. Maxwell, of the Custom-house, then
took the load, closely followed by Shaw. The rest of the
race is easily described, as Shaw, in consequence of the
bad position he obtained at starting►, was never able to
overhaul Maxwell, and was beaten easily by about thirty
yards. The others came straggling in, the last of all being
Sewell of Horsleydown, whose boat filled with water
every two or three minutes, which had to be bailed out.
The following is the order in which they arrived at the

winning post:—
Henry William Maxwell, Custom-house 1
Charles Shaw, Rotherhithe 2
William John Taylor, Lambeth 3
Richard Deering, Legal-quays
Thomas Hitchcock, Lambeth 5

James Robert Newell, Iforsloydown
Maxwell was loudly cheered ou his victory; but it was
the general opinion that Shaw ought to lmye won if he
had been properly pileted up the tiYer.
