IRONMASTER'S QUALIFICATION.—We understand, that
Mr. Hill, the owner of the lronmaster, has declined to submit
the question of qualification to the Stewards of the races;
but, on the ground that the whole question turns upon a
point of law, has offered to refer it to any party the Lord
Chief Justice may appoint. The stewards, in reply, have an-
nounced their determination to decide upon the matter, and
have given notice to the various parties to be prepared
to go into it on Monday next.
ANTI. REPEALER'S QUALIFICATION.—The death of Captain
Williams, Master of the Norse to the Lord Lieutenant of Ire-
land, has given rise to a report that he was the nominator of
Anti-Repealer for the Derby, and that, as a matter of course,
he is disqualified and the bets void. It remains to be ascer-
tained whether the deceased gentleman was the nominator,
upon which point some doubts exist.
