Swathmey in 1888 from John. Spratley,
Dendron, Va, is well known in the
metropolis as one of the cracks of the
Harlem River Speedway. while in addition
the bay gelding has attracted attention
on account of his beauty Of form, high
finish. and perfect manners. The stable

Gould. Louise Mac realms the speed
and gamencsS that made her conspicuous
among Grand Circuit champions III 1899,
while guided by the fine amateur hand
of her owner she has shown marvellous
flights of speed on NV York's famous
driveways.
During his residence here, less than q
decade since Mr.. Gwathmcy owned some
OF the best roadsters to be had in Nir-
Siria, and since removing to New York
he has kept abreast of the times, which

Trottcrs of the calibrc of Louise Mac
and her stable companions come high,
while both skill and judgment are required
in guiding them at top speed, but the
exhilaration and pleasure furnished by
such horses is lacking in other sources.

handled for speed: in fact, l believe that
NcChesuey is the only one that has
received regular training but his foals,

are levcl-headed. which would be looked
for from a sire possessing not only those
qualifications himself, but who excels as

The clipping which follows was taken
from a New York exchange, and, relating
To Mr.. William w Brauer, former we'll
known resident and business man Of THIS
i,,tz 10
here Mr.. Brauer was known as one of the
ablest amateur drivers in the city, while
he was u liberal buyer of fast road horses
and plenty of speed was always to be
found in his private stable. He left t.ere IN
1895 and went 10 London, where he re-
manned some years and then took up his
residence in New York city:
One of the most important lawsuits tried
la the Supreme Court in some considerable
time past is that In which Mr.. William w.
Brauer. head of the great cattle exporting
corporation known as the W. w. Brauer
Company, has just secured q verdict for
$4,000 against the Oceanic Steam Naviga-
non Company. commonly known as the
Mite Star lire.
Mr.. Brauer. ii appears, exports about &c.
100000 worth of cattle to England every
year, and some two or tfree Years age
he made a contract with the steamship
company for the Shipment of stock by its
steamers. But the company, instead of
carrying out its part of the contract,
placed certain restrictions in the way of
shipping the cattle. which caused Mr..
Srauer considerable loss. Mr. Brauer there
upon entered suit against the company,
$l50. coo damage The case was
tried before a jury. which, after care
fui hearing of the case, rendered a verdict
on Wednesday last for the sum OF $40,
