started in the Garrison Cup, the owner having declared to win with the best. A most exciting | race ended in a dead heat between Cotswold and
Norman King. The official decision of this race is that the owners agree to divide, and both ponies carry penalties as winners. The race will not be run off. Mr. Mumford's Mick led in the Chinese Club Cup from start to finish, paying his backers for a win $114.10, and for place $22.70. The end of the race was most exciting, as Mick, Prairie King and Policy came down the straight neck and neck. Halifax, in spite of carrying seven pounds penalty, was brought in by Mr. Moller in the Lusitano Cup. Ardpatrick was a very popular win in the Hongkong Club Cup. The starts were well managed.
This is the first big race meeting in which the electric cars have conveyed spectators to the Course, and there was little or no congestion of traffic as on previous occasions. The Hongkong Club put on a wretched tiffin, for which it was a shame to charge two dollars. Pint bottles of Pommery at six dollars was also rather high.
Results were as follows:- WONG-NEI-CH. NG STAKES.- A half mile race. Value $250; second, $100; and third, $50. For China ponies subscription griffins of this season.
