BUFFALO MEETING POSTPONED. Buffalo, N. Y., September 18. The meeting of the Turf Congress which was to be held at Buffalo today was postponed until September 30. May Overton, President of the Congress, Walter Parmer, George Hendrie and Frank Fowler were on hand at this mornings session. Delmar and Little Rock, however, were not represented. A telegram from Messrs. Cella, Adler and Titles was read by President Overton, in which the St. Lonis members aBked for a postponement until the above mentioned date. An important law suit which will have considerable bearing on the coming fall meeting at the Fair Grounds was to come up tomorrow and this necessitated Messrs. Cella and Tilles remaining in St. Louis. Those present were agreeable to the postponement, and it was agresd to meet at the Lindell Hotel at St. Louis September 30. From what could be gathored from the members here today it is tha intention of this Turf Congress to provide a winter racing point for horsemen who have raced with them all summer. What city this track will be located in, is as yet a secret, but it is reported from unauthoritative sources that Hot Springs has been the place selected to give a winter meeting in opposition to New Orleans.
