Memphis, Tenn, April 13.-The Tennes- see Oaks. for s-year-old Allies at one mile, was won by J. c. Greener and Company's Olefiant by Ornus Alveria M. i, in driving finish by head from Sarah Maxim, which beat Avoid length for second money. Olefiant was always favorite and the money poured in on the handsome Alley at the close. Winkfeld was brought on here to ride the favorite and 1t was we'll he had the mount. for 1t took all of his strength and prowess to land the daughter of Ornus a winner in the last stride. Avoid made the rum ming to the stretch and 1t looked like a winner an eighth of a mile from home, but when Sara Maxim and Olefant chai- lenged her she faltered and finished third. The race was run over a muddy track and the time, 1;45 3-4 was creditable.
 It was a field day TOT the talent, five out of six favorites taking first place.
 In the first race at six furlongs, Alfiio, from the stable of George c. Bennett the local turfman, won a popular victory. Bennett scored again in the second event at half mile with his smart 2-year-old colt Claremont by King Counsel.
 The third race at a mile and sixteenth was a duel betdween three contenders, the three year Rankin winning in romp, Autumn Leaves opened favorite to win the fifth race at seven and one-half fur longs, but. the public would have only Favonius and the Hildreth entry closed favorite. Coburn laid out of the race until well turned for home when he shook Favonius up with the whip and the aged horse responded gamely, winning on the post by head from Henry Bert The last race at six furlongs went to the out slider Ohagen, which beat John Coulter handily.
