FLEETWOOD PARK.

First Day of the September Trottins Meet
ins-The Contests and the Speculation
Thereon.
To-day is set down for the Inauguration OF the
September trottipg meeting at Fleetwood Park and
should the weather be pleasant thousands will
gather at this delightful retreat to witness contests
which promise to be OF the grandest character.
The character OF the horses entered, their evenness
and condition seem to certainly insure this. First
the programme Is the purse OF ST. 900 for horses
that have trotted better than three minutes:
$500 to the FIRST, $3.50 the second and $3.50 the
third norse mile heats best three In i've, III har.
ness. Entered for this are Ii. J. Doremus' sorrel
geldlng Joe G. N. Ferguson's bay mare Bright Eyes,
Alex. Snyder's bay gelding Westchester Nike
Roden's bay gelding Castle Boy, b. f. Cowan's
gray gelding Ed Eaton, $. J. Whtney's black
gelding Camors and S. r. Dane's sorrel
mare Ida Nav. The second event Is for
horses that beat 225 ST. 500 to the first 5000
to the second, and $500 to the third horse; mile
heats best three In nve, in harness. and In this will
be engaged Dan Mace's chestnut geldlng Judge Full.
lerton John Murphys bay gelding J. j. Bradley and
Thomas 8. Carpenters black stallion Thomas JET
ferson These are oil clippers ana the greatest IN
JeresJ is centrlng In the race, 1t bids Iar to be
closely contested throughout
night, considering the unpleasant weather, at the
pool rooms OF Messrs. Marshall Johnson Broad
way and Twenty eighth street, 10 speculate upon
these events. The betting was very light however,
the pools being few In number anl OF comparatively
small amounts. The following viii give IN idea Of

A Wholesale Dlurier Frusun;ed-No Clue IS
10 the Perpetrators OF This pevilish act.
Mr.. John Rathborn, OF Merrick, and another
gentleman OF that town, while on their way home
from Belmore last Sunday night found, passing
along the railroad track, aoout midway between
the above named places, two heavy ties placed
across the rails. With malice true to the instincts
OF the perpetrators or this 1endsh crime, the ties
were placed near q bridge, so that, whenever the
engine OF the approaching train should strike
It, the whole train would likely have been thrown
into the creek below. 1t is unnecessary to say that
Mr.. Rathborn ana his friend Immediately removed
the obstruction and Just in time, as the last train
IN sight, so saving the hves OF the hundreds on
board as well as "a great disaster TO the railroad
company.
on the 18th OF July last Antoine Fergercr, young
mechanic at College Point, l.. L., was arrested, on
complaint of Helena Schcech OF that place, on
charge OF attempting rape on her person. ON
having been indicted by the Grand Jury OF queens
