From the small amount of betting done
at the Grand Hotel last night it is almost
impossible TO name the favortes In the
2:50 pace the owner of Sidmont backed him
in several instances at y against the field
at $40. He was also taken as first choice
in the pools several times at $40, with
others running from s. to s. and total of
not over $50 in the pools.
In the 2:20 trot Seaside seemed TO be the
favorite. being selected as first choice in
most cases, but not enough pools were sold
in this class to warrant the statement that
Seaside is the favorite. Even less interest
was manifested in the betting on the other
race. Frank Agan seemed to lead, but
Bourbon Patchen held his own fairly well.
Not over a hundred persons gathered in
the billiard room at the Grand Hotel, and
most of them were there only to satisfy
their curiosity and not to invest their
money The betting was hardly an index
particularly in the 2:5O class. Several
horses entered in this class have the ability
to beat 2:50 by 10 to 20 seconds.
GreenIander and His Record.
I The patrons of the races yesterday We're
much disappointed that Greenlander did
not go against his record He holds the
worlds record to wagon-two miles in
4:32 and one mile in 2:12 The spectators
all anxiously awaited this event, which had
been announced for to-day but waited in
vain. He was brought on the track in har-
ness and made a short dash of about a
quarter to show his movement, but that
was as far as the exhibition of his qualities
went. He goes to Buffalo next week TO go
against Hamlin's Nightingale in two-mile
race TO a wagon for a stake of $1,000 and
the championship of the world. Those who
know the horse confidently expect him to
lower his now famous record, as the track
he will go on is said to be a fast one,
probably equaling the Terre Haute track
where he made his present record. n race
against his record would have been an
event worth seeing. and il with a
feeling of keen disappointment that the
large number of spectators saw him leave
the track TO so TO the stable after MAX
ing a quarter exhibition dash.
Strect-Car Service Overtnxed.
Quite number Of people who wanted to
see the races yesterday were prevented by
the lack of transportation facilities. The
street-car company did all in its power
TO handle the crowd, but on account of
the attractions elsewhere it was impossible
10 furnish enough ears on some of the lines
+ leading TO the points of interest. The fair
grounds lines were provided fairly well with
cars, and even better than the lines to some
( of the other attractions but still the cayac-
ity was not equal TO the crowd. To-day

i fractions to demand street cars, except the
ball game. The officials of the company
