SAN FRANCrsCo. Dec. 7.-Mr. MacDonough
has decided to allow Ormonde to remain in
England until Juno or July OF next year. and
intends purchasing anumher OF English mares
with which to breed him during the early
spring. When the famous stallion is brought
to California It is the intention Of his owner to
contns his services entirely to the MacDon-
ouEh stable. Instead OF putting him in gem
oral service.
MARLBOROUGH has not yet decided to engage
young Webher. tho thirteen year old Jockey,
He thinks $500 year too much for the boy.
but 1t Is probable that COMPROMISE will be
made. Experts here regard the lad as the best
rider ever seen on this coast.

The friends of Harrison, on the other
hand, will have no apologies to make
either for himself or his administration.
