A New York correspondent at Ascot
telegraphs: The appearance OF the
course is much more brilliant than last
year, when the court In mourning com.
pelled the ladies to assume sombre hues.
The royal lawn to day was perfect
Kaleidoscope OF beautiful color. One
lady was dressed in a rich cherry satin
trimmed with black, representing
Lorrillard's colors. The whole length
of the rails facing the grand stand was
occupied by line of drags, crowded
with fair occupants. A few minutes
before the first race the royal procession
came in sight, headed by eight hunts.
men OF the royal hunt, in scarlet and
gold, pre- eded by the Earl OF Cork on
horseback and in the uniform OF Her
Mai-sty's buck hounds, carrying the
silver horn OF the office. The first car
riage contained the cd, 4tas
Prince and Princess Of Wales;
the second, Princess Christina and Duke
O. Connaughi; the third, Duchess ol
CopnauCht, Duke of Cambridge and
Princess Teck; the fourth, Princess
Oh 'st'na and Prince Teck; the fifth,
Lady L,nsdale AMI Lord Clomel. The
royal visitors were received with the
greatest enthusiasm, and when they
settled down in their place the business

Archer rode tho winning horse in the
| Trial stakes race, and when the Maiden
Plate and the Gold Vase races were dis
posed of, there was an interval OF hall
an hour before the Prince OF Wac;
stakes race was begun. The horses
were paraded in the paddocks. There
was a great rush. and there were many
inquiries after lroquois. The popular
iurore seemed to been entirely with the
Americans. one gentleman remarking,

When Iroquois appeared he was fairly
mobbed, the crowd following bin
around aud around. The general opin
ion was that he has greatly improved
since the Derby. Since last year the
stewards under the presidency oil the
Earl of Cork and Orrery have done
much TO increase the attractiyeness o
the meeting, ami have expended el5, ,OO(
in alterations AMI improvement o.
stands and enclosures, leaving bu
little in the way OF comfort to be de
sired. The amount added to-day

met Peregrine to-day in the Prince o.
Wales Stakes, but the latter horse wa.
scratched last night. 1t is considered
certain that Iroquois will carry of ont

America before the end OF the week
