MINNEAPOLIS RACES.
Some Fine Trotting Witnessed by .
Small Crowd.
Carrie. Jimmie and Ollie Becker the
Winners.

The Minneapolis races began yesterday
with the most favorable conditions. The
weather was propitous and the track fast,
but unfortunately the attendance was not
commensurate with the excellence Of the
events down on the programme. 1t was
fully $3.50 o'clock when the horses for the
first race began to score, and the judges
were quite slow in managing the events,
and owing to these facts the last event. the
1927 trot, was unavoidably omitted, owing
to the lateness of the hour when the other
races were completed. The trot omitted
comes off to-day. The races which dd
come off, however. were filled with inter
est, and the audience was well pleased with
the sport.
