Special Dispatch to The Call.


SARATOGA, Aug. 2.-Of paramount
interest to turfmen to-day was the per-
Torrance of J. R. Keene's Delhi in the
last race of the day, handicap at one
mile. Upon his work in this race de-
pended his chances Of winning the $780,
600 Great Republic on Saturday, in
which he will meet Hermis, Waterboy,
Mercury, Knight Errant, Bryn Mawr,
Grey ITriar, st. Valentine and possibly
The Picket.
In tG-day's race Delhi met Hamburg
Belle, Grey Friar, Fort Hunter, Gold
Money, High Chancellor and Pennant.
There was decidedly heavy plunge
on Hamburg Belle at the last moment,
causing Delhi's odds to recede.
At the start Hamburg Belle was last
away. In his anxiety to make up lost
ground Jockey Lyme made too much
use Of his mount, in addition to which
he ran into a pocket directly on the
heels Of Fort Hunter and Grey Friar,
causing him to take Hamburg Belle
back for a moment. By this time Del
his lead was some three lengths, and
it now seemed hopeless for Hamburg
Belle. The hght-weighted Grey Friar
kept pegging away, and as the field
turned into the stretch partisans Of
Delhi began to manifest great uneasi-
ness, as Redfern seemed TO be riding
him hard. Redfern whipped the colt,
but Grey Friar steadily gained. The
best he could do, however, was TO go
to Delhi's neck. Summary:
