Another Account of the TrOtt1ng.
 NEW YORK, Aug. 28.-It was cold day at the Prospect Park fair grounds to-day for both of Cases phenomenal trotters, Jay-Eye- See and Phallas, who had entered to trot against time, Jay-Eye-See being backed to beat the 2:093 record of Maud s. and Phal- las being expected to beat his own record of 2:131I. Both horses failed in the attempt, Jay-Fye-See's fastest mile being 2$4 seconds slower than that of Maud s. and Phallas' best time being 334 seconds slower than what he made at Chicago The reason given by the knowing ones were various, but all agree that if the weather had been less cool and breezy the pace would have been much faster. There was fresh wind from the sea which caught the trotters the back stretch and if was noticeable that all the skipping and breaking that occurred was while the horses were getting to the half-mile post. In every other respect the weather was perfect and the rather sandy track was in as good condition as it was ever or as it is possible to make it. There were about five thousand people in attendance and the scenes about the grand stand were full of excite ment, the wheels ot fortune and sweat boards giving all an opportunity to lose their money while Conterni's band disconrsed plenty of good music, some of which was very appropriate. There were few noted horse men present, probably in consequence of inc connter attractions at Hartford and Rriobton. MT. Bonner, who was expected to hold watch over Jay-Eye-See in the judges stand, was absent, but was represented by his brother David. The judges were Messrs. H. T, Mali. Hamilton Busby and T. Hoagland. The II 6e best performance of the day was in the second quarter of Jay-Eye-See's first heat, which was trotted at the rate of 2:O4.
 The days sport began with Phallas' first effort to heat his own record The stallion was driven by Ed Bithers and Hiram Howe drove Dave Gideon as running mate. Odds of two to one were offered that Phallas would not equal 2:133I and he did not. He made the quarter in 35, the half mile in 1:07A, three-ouarters in 1:41, the mile in 2:18I In his second trial Phallas went to the quar-

To Break the Record Fails, Though ~ the Little Horse Trots Very Fast in the Face Ofa Strong Wind.
 Special to the JOURNAL AND CoURIER] NEW YORK, Aug 2S.-The effort of Jay | Eye-See to beat the record of 2:0934 made by | Maud S, and of Phallas to beat the best l stallion time of 2:134, attracted an immense throng of people, estimated at twenty five l thousand, to Prospect Park fair grounds, on the road to Coney Island, to-day. Long before the hour named for the trial of the trotters, 3 o'clock, all kinds and styles of vehicles were taking their loads to the grounds, and each train brought hundreds of clinging, perspiring and expectant human ity, and moved out only to give place to other trains equally laden. The grand stand, double-decker, was jammed, and as it was rumored that it was unsafe with such a crowd on it, it was somewhat thinned and the occupants poured down on the track shut out from sight the track and the fences guarding the track for distance of over a quarter of 0 mile. The driver of Jay-Eye- See and Phallas was Edwin D. Bithers. The starter of the horses was MT. Hogeland; judges, Messrs. Mali, Busby and David Bon ner The running horse Dave Gideon, driv- en by Hiram Howe, proprietor of the Pros pect Park Hotel, was run to urge the trot- ters. A strong westerly wind interfered materially with the horses or the home stretch, which accounts for the slow time made.
 At 3:2O Phallas was on the track for tn e first heat and after several attempts the word "Gor" was given. His mile was made in 2:19s4. Jay-Eye-See, in his first heat, started at $50, and made his mile in 2:21115.
 In the second heat Phallas tToSted the mile in 2:2O14; Jay-Eye-See in 2:1215, which is the fastest mile ever made on the Prospect Park track by any horse. The half mile was made in 1:04 in this heat.
 In the third heat Phallas trotted in 2:1715 and Jay-Eye-See in 2:1414. The horses were in fine condition at the close of the races and the people fiocked around them and their drivers and cheered them heartily, and would not give way until they had pet ted and embraced their favorites Jay-Eye- See was the favorite, and though disappointed at the result, the people were good natured and not much money changed hands, as the betting was light. Then the crowd dispersed and made for the train through clouds of dust. On Saturday last Jay-Eye-See and Phallas each trotted miles over Prospect track in 2:20 and 2:19.
 Jay-Eye-See is black gelding, standing 15114 hands high and weighs 628 pounds. He draws forty pound sulky. His record of 2. 1014 is the highest mark for fve-year- old. Phal- las is bay stallion about sixteen hands high and weighs ,025 pounds. He wears seven teen ounce shoe. The 2:13A of Phallas made him king of the trotting stallions and was the fastest fourth heat ever trotted by horse, mare or gelding. Next week the great trotters go to Minneapolis and will appear during the Minnesota State fair. Both horses are owned by Hon. J. I. Case.
