aB
 Gallagher.
 Hon. James Gallagher, chairman of the Democratic State Central committee, received the following letter yesterday from Gov ernor Waller:
 STATE OF CONNECTICUT,
 EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, HARTFORD, Aug. 27, 1884. Hon. James Gallagher, chairman Democratic State Central Committee:
 Dear Sir-Although I have already ire quently said that am not to be a candidate for renomination, think it expedient to re- quest you, if occasion requires it, to so advise the representatives of our party in the coming convention. This deliberate conclusion is, as you personally know, in accordance with determination I formed be- fore I entered upon the duties of the office of governor, and although the expressions of the press and of prominent men of our party, to which my attention has been called, in favor of my renomination are exceedingly gratifying, still I satisfied that I should adhere to the policy I advocated at the be- ginning, and that has been serviceable to me throughout my administration and not per init myself, under any circumstances to al ter it. With abiding faith in the principles of our party, confident of it's success in the contest in November in the State and the nation, and grateful for the honor it has done me in the past, I am truly yours.
 THOMAS M. WALLER.

The great SIC, 1000 race was the event of the ! afternoon. It was generally understood tha' ! the horses would all make hot struggle fol 1 first money, and the presence of Harry Wilkes, the rising star of the track, Phil | Thompson and Maud Messenger, each with ! record of 2:1615 and other well known f1yers | made the contest doubtful. Onward was withdrawn. Wilkes was a strong poo favorite, buyers risking their money on him
 readily and putting up high figures He ruled strong in the pools at $100 with Maud Messenger selling for SIS, King Almont for SIS, Phil Thompson for $10 and the field for S11. As the horses came out they were
 tators. The Wilkes men were ex-
 tremely confident and would listen
 to nothing that was said against their horse. All the animals are fine looking. Felix was the winner of the pole, Adelaide
 second, Wilkes third and Phil Thompson outside.
 After seven trials the horses got the word
 There was break and rush and off they
 went together with several horses alternating
 in first place. The favorite, Wilkes, was
 breaking. Adelaide, Almont and Messenger were near the lead. Almont finally got il
 and held it. On the last turn the horses divided off into three teams with Almont and Adelaide ahead, Emmons and Messen. ger behind them three lengths and Phil Thompson away in the rear. On the stretch the King showed his mettle and passed the wire winner.
 Harry Wilkes justified the confidence of his packers in the next heat, and he made
 the mile in 2:17 in one of the prettiest heats of the day. The contest was between Maud Messenger, who was ahead in the first turn, Phil Thompson and Harry Wilkes. For the entire length of the back stretch and around the turn those horses were punched evenly. Phil Thompson's driver, A. w. Schneider, laid on the whip generously, but his horse would not respond. Maud was only half a length behind.
 Harry Wilkes was the victor in the third heat Maud Messenger trotted with him un- til the third quarter was reached. Phil Thomp- son kept up longer, but finished three lengths behind. The other horses were evidently, ont of their class.
 Harry Wilkes won the next heat and took first money. King Almont got second money, and third and fourth money was di- vided between Maud Messenger and Captain Emmons.
 The race was disappointment to those who hoped to see 2:161a beaten.
