 In the free-for-au race St. Julien. Maud S.
 and Trinket were drawn. In the first heat
 the start was made by Hopeful followed by
 Great Eastern and Darby. Away they went
 without break.

In the second heat the horses got off prompt ly, Hopeful ahead with Darby next. Great Eastern went in the air at the quarter pole and went so far back that he was four lengths behind Darby, who in turn was half length behind Hopeful at the finish; time 334 1:O7, 1:414, 2:164. In the third heat Darby to Hopefuls wheel at the half and up to half length at the three-quarters Down the home stretch he was lashed into taking first place by neck as he came under the wire time, 334, 1:O9, 1:444, 2:19. The fifth heat caused little excitement. It seemed generally understood how it would end, and the horses were not pushed. They came in: Darby, Hopeful and Great Eastern; time, 34, 1:O8, 1:149. 2:22.
 It was after o'clock when the race against time was called. The pools sold $50 on St. Julien to $40 on Maud s., and $50 to $36, $37 and $3S that the horses would not beat the time. Each horse trotted alone and they went of without scoring, the crowd silently admiring the splendid work until the finish, when they cheered lustily. St. Julien took his first heat at apparently great ease, making the quarter in 334, the half in 1:074, three quarters 1:41 and mile in 2:134. At this time the betting was 25 to 28 that the fastest time would be beaten. Pools sold 50 on St. Julien to 45 to 3S on Maud s. Maud S. first heat Maud s. WAS greeted with cheers. Without a single score she went for the heat, going wonderfully fast un- der the wire and caused no surprise when she went by the quarter in 324. Away she went in beautiful shape, passing to the half in 1:05, the three-quarters in 1:384, and came under the wire in 2:11f. At the announce ment the friends of Maud s. grew wild with excitement. The pools changed to 9 to p in favor of Maud s.
 St. Juliens second heat. The feat of Maud s. invited the driver of St. Julien to send him for all he was worth and the geld ing started beautifully. After two scores he reached the quarter in 314, the half in 1:O43, the three-quarters in 1:388, and finished in 2:114, as announced by the judges, though the stop watches in the reporters stand showed PIP, and this latter time was taken by several sporting men in the grand stand. Having won the purse by beating his own previous record, St. Julien was not speeded in his third heat and went around at his leis- ure time 37, 1:15, 1:52, 2:244
 Before Maud s. was brought out for the second trial Captain Stone, who has her in charge, asked the judges to announce that hay the mare would not be speeded thereafter and her second mile by quarters was 3511, Ell, 1:474, 2:20A. When Maud S. came up for the first trial Charley Green, who was in the reporters stand, said the sun never shone on faster track than this is today. There were $SO, GOO in the pools, of which full two thirds were on the free-to-all. Each horse was presented by the wives of the directors of the Rochester Driving Park with floral blanket and an ornamented card, one bearing the words ''St. Julien, King of the Turf and the other Maud S., Queen of the Turf.'' A card which had been prepared with the fastest time on was split in two and one-half given to each driver.
