The Lioness Lays Out a Field of
Fleet Maidens,

LOUISVILLE, N.Y., May l0.-Ine second
day OF the Louisville spring meeting
furnished some excellent sport. The
weather was threatening, but not near so
cold as the day before, and the attendance
was large. 1t began raining before the
second race The drops fell lightly, how
ever, and did not interfere with the racing
the time being good. The finish in the
Z Lioness race was very exciting, Daisy
woodruff pushing the crack two-year-old
FLY OF the Melbourne stable very hard.
Long Roll, a scratched Derby candidate,
had notrouble in defeating Marshall Luke,
the favorite and good field, in the seven
furlong dash. While the race was being
run it commenced 10 rain harder and by
the time for the last race, the track was
slow Though Marshall Luke and Lafitte
were well backed in the fourth and fifth
races, Long Roll and Roi dor had plenty
OF followers, and the bookmakers in
number OF cases were hit pretty heavy.
The Lioness was also very popular, and
relieved them OF good deal Of money.
The fields were all large, but starter Cald-
well got them off in every race without
any annoying delays, and his work gave
general satisfaction. At @ o'clock il COM
menced raining hard and the prospect is
that the track will be heavy tomorrow.
The Lioness, the winner Of the Hurst
bourne stakes for two-year-old fillies, is
first-class one and is owned by w. S.
Barnes, whose Gallifet ran second in the
Derby.
