The Railroads Are Preparing.

St. Louis. Oct. 16.-That the Iron Noun tain railway officials feel assured that the Corbett- -Fitzsimmons fight will take place at Hot Springs is evident from the conference of the passenger agents at the headquarters of that company for two days past. Nearly every passenger representative of the Iron Mountain road in the principal cities between New York and Denver has been in attendance, which was presided over by General Pas senger Agent Townsend. The number of people who will attend the fight was es- timated by outside agents at 30.000 and possibly the figure will be increased if the public becomes satisfied that the fight will surely take place.

THE RACES.
Robert J. Is Still King.

Lexington, Ky, Oct. 16.-Robert T. proved himself the best of the four start CTS in the free-for-all pace today, and vanquished the two star performers, John R. Gentry and Joe Patchen, quite handily His strongest rival for first Frank Agan, who figured in the three heats a close second, but a break near the wire of the deciding heat caused him to be placed last and Gentry second. Robert J. and Joe Patchen sold for $50 each, while Agan and Gentry brought $15 as a field.
 In the first heat Agan drew the pole with Robert J. on the outside, and 1t wal @ merry slip to the half in 1:01R, against a stiff wind Patchen and Frank Agan went like & team, with Robert. two lengths back and Gentry not In the hunt Swinging down the home stretch Geers moved up with Robert J. and outfooted Agan by a small margin. In the next two heats it was Robert J. all the route and the four pacers were closely punched Geers reserved his speed for the last whre MT. Hamlin's great pacer showed he was, by odds the best horse. Lynne Bell proved himself a game and reliable race horse today in the 2:11 trot. Five of the Transylvania starters were in rtodayS event, and Lynn Bel proved the best. Altao won the third heat in 211. In the next heat McDowell went away with Altao at a killing clip, making the half in 1:04%, and was a length in front of Lynne Bel At the seventh furlong AL tao made sItand-still break and dropped out of 1t. The 220 pace proved tiresome before a conclusion was reached. Madge D. won a heat last evening, and after one today appeared distressed, but revived in the seventh and distanced the two heat winners, Harry Victor and Rrssie Clay, in very slow time. The pair of pony trotters, Winnie D., by Aaron Wilkes. and Algeria Queen, by Algeria Wilkes, lowered the world record of 2:46 to 2:32%, double, to bike wagon, making a new record for a trotting team under 12k hands high.
