HORsE-DOCKING BARRED.
Hang Tails Excluded From the Roy
al Agricultural Society Show.
From the London Daily Mail.

From the London Daily Mail
The decision of the Royal Agricultural
Society to forbid the exhibition Of horses
with locked tails at It's next show has not
caused quite so much surprise as might
have been expected.
A Daily Mall representative saw Mr..
Charlton, secretary of the Hunters Inn
provement Society yesterday. and he point
ed out that that body had passed a similar
resolution two years ago. Al the forth
coming show all yearlings must be exhibit
ted unlocked
"As to how Il will affect our entries"
said Mr. Charlton, 81 am at present UNI
able to say. Some Of our members think
1t will diminish them, but, of course, that
question cannot be settled until the end of
January, when all entries have TO be in.
The decision of the Royal Society Will
most certainly help us to carry out our
resolutions, and though of course, It's
rules VIII only affect yearlings at the next
show, like ours, they embrace 2-year-olds
the year after, and so on, until all horses
will have TO show unlocked.
after all, docking Is merely fashion,
and IL the word was passed that 1t was
bad form to ride or drive horses SO
treated, then the whole subject would be
settled at once"
The secretary of the Hackney Society
did not take at all a similar view of the
decision.
'You see." ne said Eat our own show,
which is the biggest IN England of har-
ness horses, we can do as we like, and this
year. at all events, the Royal Society's
show cannot bar any other than yearlings
so that will have no effect on the harness
classes.
There is, at any rate at present, pub
lie demand for locked horses. People
won't drive others, ~and, of course, our
breeders have to consider their clients.
What will happen eventually cannot say.
and really ii Is a little premature TO give
any opinion now. as the Royal Agricultu-
raj Society's decision was only given on
Wednesday.
"Our council will probably discuss the
matter at the next meeting In December
and / should say there would be a general
meeting of interested horse breeders early
next year, which will result In some repre-
sensations being made to the Royal Agrt-
cultural Society.
Whatever Is done, this decision OF
theirs can have little or no immediate eff
feet and the question will probably take
a number of years before II Is settled def
nitely one way or the other"

DRY GOODS.

New York, Nov. 19.-The week has been
remarkable III the print cloth market as
having seen larger sales of regular cloths
and other grades now described as com
mittee goods" than any week for several
months. The advisory committee of the
manufactures gave out no figures, but it is
probable that sales have amounted TO
about 100000 pieces, perhaps more.
1t is said that regulars have sold at liz
cents on November and December delivery
and that goods are easily obtainable at this
price. In staple cottons locally there have
been continued large sales of export goods
in brown cottons. The demand shows no
signs of abatement. In bleached cottons the
market is more active since the recent re
auctions.

Away down on the Maine coast, at
Harpswel, a lobster farm is to be estab.
Iished by two enterprising men. who have
made a study of lobster culture. The
work will be carried on according to sci
enifc directions from the United States
fish commissioners.
Lohsters have been very scarce along
the Maine coast for several years-that is,
a compared with former periods. Good
sized Holsters used to be sold from the cart
for cents apiece, and, of course, at whole
sale they were even cheaper Many people
suppose that the smallness of the lobster
catch ia Maine Is accounted for by the
existence of many canneries. but this Is
nor so. There have been no lobster-can-
ming factories In operation in Maine since
1885, in which year a law was passed for
bidding the taking of Holsters under ten
and one-half inches in length. This law
forced the canning companies out of bus
mess, as IL was intended to.
The average annual catch of Holsters on
the Maine coast is about 7,500,O00 estimat-
ed 10 be worth $4,000.
