BALTIMORE, May liking Cobalt,
one of the best sprinters in training, was
hot favorite at odds on in the second
race. at six furlongs, at the Pimlico
track yesterday, but he could not concede
twenty pounds and a year to Thomas
Clyde's Tasley, and was beaten in a hard
drive by length. Only three horses
went to the post. and Tasley and King
Cobalt fought it out all the way, running
heads apart to the last furlong pole, when
the former drew out.
Goldstein earned the jockey honors
riding three winners, two Of which were
for Thomas Clyde. He had to do little
more than sit still to win with Megantic
the favorite in the opening race, for two
year-olds, but was called on for his best
effort to get Tasley home in front. In
the third race he was beaten a short
mead on Dispute, by Hiacko, but came
back In the sixth race and rode High
Range to victory. The last named was
heavily backed from 5 to 1 to to Q
and there was much enthusiasm when he
galloped home five lengths in front after
being hard ridden at the last furlons
pole.
Sir Wooster won the Consolation
steeplechase in the colors of Robert
Neville: He was hot favorite at odds
on, and came away to win as he pleased
after j. w. Colts Reginald had made the
running for a mile.
The meeting will come to an end to-
day. when the historic Preakness stakes,

fell to him a little earlier than he antici-

Very little other business was trans
acted at the meeting of the council, both
the questions concerning basket ball and
crew being deferred until later date. AT
present plans are being completed for the
semi-annual assembly of the general as
sociation, so that the two Weighty ques-
