Malloy aud Hazard p. Mitchel's Elgin,
and h. a Smiths Fannie Moore Mr. NJ.
I. Costello had entered b. C. Seagull, but
under the rules of the Turf Congress,
having entered two, was allowed to name
the one he wished to run. Bissick's Hazard,
likewise entered, did not appear la the
pool selling and on the ground, Bissick' 8
entry, Pat Malloy, was the faVorite by
large odds. Eigin was next in order. At
the tap of the drum the four starting got
of in fine order. Elgiu took the lead at
once, by couple of lengths, bat MalIoy
before reaching the quarter pole had shot
by the black colt time to Grst quarter, 81
seconds. Going up the back stretch, NAL
10y increased his pace and the distance
between him and Elgin. Fannie Moore
was next, and Costello far in the rear.
They passed the half mile pole Ia this po-
sltion, aud came in on the home stretch
without material change; FIRST mile made
in 200. Passing the string, Malloy shot
out length or two more, and afler this
there was no contest, and Mailoy won the
race easily; the others were strung out.
Costello passed Fannie Moore about the
mile and half pole, and came in third,
Fannie last. Time-4081.

This race, two mile heats for all ages,
promised to be more closely contested and
exciting than the first There were three
entries F. A. Smiths Malcomb, F. Ewing's
Bill Forrest, and j. Crossley's ReeIfoot.

heat, Malcomb went CALAMITY to the 'front.'
Forrest was at his launches and ReeIfoot in
