SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 29.-The
Golden Gate Fair meeting is progress
ing very satisfactorily, although the
attendance is not quite up to expecta-
ton. The various events have been
free from any taint of suspicion, which
has been proud record for the Cali
fornia circuit. The harness races to-
day were both we'll contested, and the
time is really no criterion of the merits
Of the performances, as the Oakland
track is poorly adapted for harness rae
ing, and is anyway from three to four
seconds slow to the mile.
Nine horses scored up for the word
in the ZIG trot for a 81 900 purse.
Neerata, on the strength OF her show
ing at Santa Rosa, had the biggest fol-
lowing, and justified the confidence re-
posed in her by winning the event, but
not in straight heats as expected. Ar
thur W. took the PIP pace with ease
in straight heats. Results:
