the closing day of the Lincoln Park rae
ing meeting, and with warmer weather
nearly four thousand persons throngeC
tho grand stand and quarter-stretch
Four events were crowded into the after
noon's programme, and despite the fact
that the wind. which almost reached the
proportions of a gale, blew down the
homestretch, the time made was good.
By all odds the most exciting race in the
competition was the Z:l0 trot. Hardly q
length separated Altamont and Robbie
L. in any OF the five heats. There was d
long wrangle over the fifth heat, Pyle,
the owner and driver of Robbie F., claim
ing a foul, which was not allowed. The
special events for record breaking trials
did not fill. Flying Jib was brought out
but he was in one Of his ugly moods. the
presence of running mate seeming Il
tantalize him. After going the quarter at
q spanking clip he went into the air,
breaking repeatedly whenever the run
ner approached, and was simply logged
the rest of the distance No time was
taken. Carbonate and w. w. p, driven
as team, broke their harness right at
the start, aud the race was abandoned.
