Baltimore, Md, Nov. 14.-The Pimlico
races came to an end to-day. Six races
were on the programme, the concluding
event being a four-mile steeplechase. AS
on previous steeplechase days a large
crowd was at the course, attracted by
the promise of another battle between
the Messrs. Hayes and Nicholas, the gen.
tlemen riders. The weathr. too, offered
an inducement. The afternoon was, in
that respect almost perfect.
AS race the Hunt Cup was not disap-
pointing. 1t was a grand contest from
start to finish between three of the four
starters. Harry Harwood fell over a
jump, after going two miles and a. half.

Harry HARDWOOD were close up with De
Garnette, who hesitated at the first jump,
trailing. This order was maintained until

closed up and ran Tapped with the leaders
for the last mile. William Hayes outrode
ms brother and Mr. Nicholas in the
stretch and won by length from De
Garnette, with Sam D. a length away. The
time in view of the heavy going was very
fast-S:2S12

collar bone broken. Ten Spot was in the
lead entering the stretch when he STUN
bled and Harris rolled off. Favorites and
