William Neely's Tfotter and Pacer
 Return from Philadelphia Meetings
 New Workers Trying to Buy O. 1T.
 LA Danbury Tr0tter to Winter at
 Fleetwood Park.
 MT. c. D. Smith, the tralner, returned to this city Saturday from Philadelphia, where he has been with William Neely's trotter, Tom Hamilton, 2:21a, and the pacer, Mon key Rolla, 2:15f. These horses were en- tered in their respective classes at Belmont park meeting, which was interrupted by rain after the first day of the meeting, which caused the classes for the horses to be declared off. The indictment weather accustomed considerable disappointment to the betting fraternity and the lovers of racing sport.
 Mir. Smith, who left Philadelphia in ad- vance of the horses, met at New York city buyer of high priced horses, MT. Edward Decernea, who was in search of 8 very fine horse. MT. Smith induced the buyer to come to New Haven and look at trotters in this vicinity. When MT. Decernea and a wealthy gentleman who accompanied him arrived in this city they went to the stables of the Hubinger brothers with the idea of buying the trotter 0. T. L., 2:24, but did not purchase him, as the owners were not anxious to sell. The Hubingers could have sold the horse for 5000. Az the wealthy gentleman referred to is known to be very rich he would not consent to having his name made known while he was in New Haven. He took this precau- tion in order to prevent owners of horses from pricing their horses higher to him than to others.
 DREAMLAND.
 The black mare Dreamland that has been a creditable performer in the Connecticut circuit races this season will have metro politan home during the fall and winter al the private stable near Fleetwood park, N. Y., of E. c. Walker. who is the editor of the eastern department of the Horseman. Dreamland is six years old and was sired by the celebated Nutwood (2:18D and if owned by W. Beckerle, proprietor of Hill Top stock farm at Danbury, Conn.,. This trotter had her first race in the three minute class at Danbury last spring, when she captured first money in both the three minute and 2:50 classes. She also won the race at Derby on June and at Norwalk beat all but the alleged ringer, Prince R At Carmel, N. Y., during recent meeting she won first money in 8 closely-contested race.
 MT. Walker brought out the trotter Mist Alice and drove her to fve-year-old rec ord of 2:204, winning about $6,000 o1 purse money with her, and has been sim larly successful with other horses. MT Walker will campaign Dreamland nex season, which will cause the knowing ones to be on the lookout for MT. Beck erle's trotter, whose record is new 2:34tt The close of next season will undoubtsdl, find her with much lower record whicl will be creditably earned.
 Mares sired by Nutwood have rscentl. been enhanced in value by the wonderful performances of the two-year-old Arion whose dam is Minette, by Nutwood. Arion | by Electioneer, beat the worlds record | for his age when he trotted mile in 2:15f which record he reduced to 2:14f 8 Stockton, Cal, last Wednesday. Since these performances Mr. Hobert owner of Stamboul, 2:11, has purchased ii | Kentucky several mares by Nutwood, an' has paid high prices for them, $7,00' being the sum paid for one of the mares The dam of Dreamland was Hernia b, | Woodford Mambrino 2-214, he by Nam blino Chief.
 When the pedigree of Dreamland considered, it will be seen that her breed ing entities her to valuation of man thousand dollars, aside from any consider | ation of her speed.
