tho Spring Meeting at'BnltimOre.
BALTIMORE, May 23.-To-day was the
fourth and last day of the spring meeting at
Pimlico, and the attendance was good-much
larger than Vas anticipated. The atmosphere
was warm almost to sultriness until fresh
breozo from the southwest sprung up and
rendered tho afternoon pleasant. A larger
number Of private vehicles than any precsd-
ing day of the meeting were ranged along the
quarter strotch, and the grand aud open
stands were we'll filled. There were five
races including the Preakness stakes and the
Baltimore cup, tho last of which was tho
feature of interest of tho day. There was
| complaint against tho riding OF Feako5 yoi-
terday on Jim Nelson in tho Blue Bell race,
which tho executive committee inquired into
to-day and dismissed the matter, which had
no foundation in fact.
Tho winners to-day wero Ella War6eld
Knight of Elorslic, Blue Grass Bolle, MINI
rod. and Deverwyok.
