The Union Pacific has evidenced disposition
to meet and cooperate with ST. Louis, as is
shown by that line having reduced rates on cat

Montana and Nebraska to st. Louis to SIT so
Der ear less than to Chicago. There has always
been differential rate but it has never been so

The earnings of the Southwestern Railway AS

reported as $2S8. 900, parative decrease from
last year of $295000 or over SO per cent. For

is nearly sixteen hands high, and has a

work so easily that when he comes to the
wire after heat he shows not the least APP
pearance of heavy breathing or distress.
He is a grand animal, and gives promise of
standing in the front rank OF stations.

Uncertainty of Racing.

The uncertainties attached to large run
ming stables are so numerous and so fatal
in their results that much afterall is left at
last to chance. The illustration of this
statement can be seen by the results
accomplished this season by Commodore
Kittson and the Dwyer Bros. The horses
in both these stables were in excellent con-
dition during the early spring. and the most
satisfactory results were anticipated The
Dryers had strengthened their string both
by breeding and purchase and went into
the summer races with confidence Com
modore Kittson had brought out a very
promising lot Of young ones, upon which
Maj. Hubbard placed great reliance.
Neither OF these great stables have as yet
accomplished what was expected of them,
though the last week or so has shown a
very decided Improvement in the stables of
Commodore KittSon. 1t does not seem DOS
sible for the magnificent breeding
stock OF this stable to remain all the season
in forced inactivity. There were decided
indications of improvement last Thursday
when Ittallala went to the front in Splen-
did style, beating Bedford and Milton by
at least two lengths. Before the race began

Luhe Has Come.

1t is the thing now to send to England
for jockeys to ride American horses. An
gust Belmont of New York has gone back
into the running business again. To be IN
to the mark he sent to his friend, Mr.. Leo
pold RothSchild of London. to get him a
jockey suitable for his royal nibs, and Mr..
ROthSchild sent over Luke with a two
years contract. He began riding immedi-
ately on reaching these shores and created
quite favorable impression. He has the
greatest home reputation of any English
jockey that has crossed the ocean. He can
ride as low as ninety-eight pounds, and is a
genuine Englishman. with little side
whiskers. He is accompanied by his wife
and family of several children. and airs
his opinions very freely about what he
sees here on the tracks in America. He
declared, in snappish way, that he was
so disguised with his first days racing here
that he would have taken the first ship
home, only that he had made contract to
stay. He don't like the climate, nor the
way they race here. To a reporter he let
himself out as follows. beginning on the
climate:
Its beastly, but can stand that. It's the
way you do your racing. The idea of max
ing the pace from the fall of the flag. Why.
