GRAND CIRCUIT rRorrlNe.
Last Day-Al1 The Races Finished Phyllis Wins In Three Straight Heats Notes or The Races.


 Notes Of The Races.
 There has not been large attendance present at the Hartford races, but the at tendance has been larger than has been present at some of the circuit meetings this fall. The association provided three races for each day, and the three which were trot- ted yesterday closed the meeting satisfac- torily to the winners, but there are many who are probably sorry that they patronized the pool stands at the races. The first race called was the 225 class A l complete list of the horses entered for yes- terday's races appeared in the COURIER of yesterday. Pools for the six horses which started sold follows: Butterscotch $50, Dick Organ $16, Prince Middleton $7, Sister Wilkes $6, Lady Majolica $5, w. K. $5. The pool favorite won the first heat. Second heat-Butterscotch became a stronger favorite, selling at $25 to $20 for the field. Butterscotch won the heat. Third heat-The favorite broke soon after the last turn had been passed. Prince Mid d1eton won.
 Fourth-heat was similar to the last one. After some deliberation the judges announc- ed that Sister Wilkes was distanced for foul driving
 Fifth-heat Dick Organ and W K. came un- der the wire neck and neck at the close of the heat, causing some excite ment. As the latter broke the judges award ed the heat to the former and placed w. K. fourth.
 Sixth-heat Butterseotch won with Dick Organ close to him.

 Four horses started to win the four prizes in the fast race for 2:16 horses. Clemmie G. for $30 and the field (Maud Messenger and Majolica) sold at $8.

After several attempts at starting the judge gave the word and Clemmie G. led to the homestretch where Phyllis came alongside of her, winning by nose at the wire.
 Second heat-Phyllis sold in the pools for $50, the field selling for the same amount. Majolica led to the homestretch where Phyl- lis and Clemmie G. passed him.

A DISMAY.

The S~tagnation in Trade Circles The Plant
of n Merchant.
A hotel clerk grew confidential to q re-
porter last might, and remarked that trade
in Wheeling wss at q comparative stand
still, owing to the strike. Wheeling is not
the only sufferer. Stubenville and Pitts
burg are about as bad. My information is
given me by the travelling men, who touch
at this point. Only yesterday a we'll known
traveller stopped at the hotel and asked for
a room, saying he would be here
for couple OF days. After
getting breakfast ne made q trip
round through his trade, but anne back in
about two hours and said he guessed he
might as well leave on the next train as
here was no chance OF his doing anything
With his customers. He told me that he
generally staid a week in P~ittsburg, but on
mis- last trip got through in q day, went
iown to S%leubenville and laid over several
dours, and then came to Wheeling, but
scored a whitewssh in all three places, as
he failed TO get a single order. he ex
pressed his opinion of the trio Of cities in
The following terse but emphatic language:

yard while Wheeling is but fit for the en-
tcmbment Of mummies. The travelling men
are highly disgusted with trade here, and
the majority have begun to dodge Wheeling
ill trade opens up again.
A dry goods merchant on Main street
agreed with the hotel clerk as to the listless
spirit of trade. During good times, said he,
our average sales would foot up to $500,
and on special occasions to $500 or 5000 q
day, now if we cell $500 worth Of goods we
consider it q big days work. The amount
of money taken in on Main street between
Tenth and Twelfth, when times are ordina
rily fair, is not less than $4,000 . day.
The aggregate Of sales during the present
stsgnah on of trade would not foot up to
one-hslt that amount.
In New York the market is worse than il
has ever been for years. On Tuesday it
took q day to close out six thousand cases
ofgoods on Change, amounting in value to
81 SOC, 900. The week before goods valued
At So, 900, 600 were closed out in half the

enough to permit the rider to attain a speeo
of thirty miles an hour on a good road. The
doctor intends to utilize his machine THU
