RACERS AT AUCTION. The sale of the entire stable of John J. McCafferty, with other horses in training at the Brighton Beach track Saturday was well attended, and prices were remarkably good. Fourteen of the McCafferty string sold for 7,275, an average of ,962.50. This is a splendid average, and tends to show the healthy state of the thoroughbred market, as well as to call attention to the general excellence of the horses sold. The entire stable, in fact, is in shape to race and win at once, as was proved by the hollow victory of Prince Richard in the first race on Saturdays Brighton programme. Feme Sole brought the highest price of the lot, ,300, and Incubator, a two-year-old colt by Ingoldsby My Chick, sold for ,500. The Pepper Stable sold to P. Ryan the good race-mare Roxane, by Perblaise Ondina for ,000. Roxane is one,, of the bett mares in training, and Mr. Ryan was quite satisfied to secure. her at that figure.
