Wayne. The latter circuit it will be re
1nrn.bered, was started by the Detroit AMI
Grand Rapids Associations, the officers q
which alleged that they had been unfairl,
treated by Jackson when the meeting fol

class, and wish to distribute the entire
purse among them.
The Detroit meeting is set for June to II,

Hldng the California horse comes East, and
one for butchers and drovers' horses. The
1iopeful-St. Julien affair is advertised
to be for purse of $1,000, but, US
