CINCINNATI, May A.-It tried hard to rain
to-day at Latonia, but did not succeed, although
several little sun showers kept the large at
tendance in an uneasy state of mind. The card
was the poorest of the meeting, and patrons are
kicking that SO few of the cracks showed up in
any of the races. There was no stake event on
the programme, and very poor horses were
entered in a sweepstake with 5000 added,
day for the betters and the books made money
for once during the meeting. The bookers
held their books on the air tight plan, offering
small odds on anything seeming to have a
chance to win. The following is the result:
