The sale of Hamburg, the great two-year.
old, by John Madden to William Lakeland,
has created much talk in turf circles.
Hamburg is brown colt, by Hanover
Lady Keel. the latter by Mamie Gray,
the dam of Domino, Correction and other
noted racers. His career has been a
sensational one, many horsemen cons,d-
ering him the colt of the century. He is
literally engaged in all the rich Western
derbies. Madden bought INN as u yearling,
and has repeatedly refused offers of $780,
900 for him.
1t il said that Lakeland gave $50, 1000
for him, the biggest price ever paid for a
thoroughbred, with the exception OF ST
Baise, who brought 100000.
w. L. Powers, to whom Hamburg is
ostensibly sold, is well known in sport
ing circles in New YORK, being the agent
OF number Of rich turfmen. 1t is aot be-
lieved that the colt has been purchased
for himself. Come horsemen think the
Keenrs are the interested parties.

had declined to take on any matches after

Chase bad made contracts with the Amer

winner of the Michael -Taylore match race
of Christmas eve on New Years night at

agement demanded too much money Tor
the race with Chase, and all deals were
