Vienna, Monday Sept. IA. via Paris,
Sept. 15.-The news Of Russias in
creasingly victorious occupation of
eastern Galicia is exercising depress
ing influence in the Austro- Hungarian
official circles and among the more in
telligent classes Of the monarchy. but
up to present time the mass of the peo-
pie seem incredulously willing to ac-
cept as satisfactory the meager official
bulletins given out by the authorities.
They welcome eagerly any report which
seems half way encouraging.
High Officials Worried.
That anxiety Is felt in higher circles,
however, Is manifested by the long
audiences the ministers Of the dual
monarchy are holding constantly at
Schoenbrunn with Emperor Francis
Joseph.
Last Saturday the emperor received
Count Berchtold. the minister Of foreign
affairs, both in the morning and after
noon. There have been also a number
of conferences since Friday with the
minister Of war and the Austrian and
HunEari0n premiers.

which bring together many Of the most
noted thoroughbred horses from the
greatest nurseries in Kentucky. In
addition to cash premiums, seasons to
such great horses as Ballot, Sain. Jack
Atkins, Fair Play, Trap Rock, Water
vale, Stalwart, Nasturtium and others
are offered which insure the best show
ever given in this department
The afternoon program is one Of the
most interesting of the entire week,
as it includes all championships in
which final contests occur between
winners Of the individual classes dur
ing the preceding days of the fair. The
rule governing these classes requires
all animals eligible to show In these
rings, or forfeit money won in the pre-.
yious shows, and this rule will be
strictly adhered to, thereby assuring
large fields and affording the public
the opportunity of seeing the winners
brought together.
The week promises to be not only
gala one in Lexington. but record
breaking one in the history of the
Blue Grass Fair.
