LOCAL TURK GOSSIP. The ban was yesterday removed from jockey Buchanan and he was permitted to ride. Judge Trevelyan investigated Buchanans ride on Searcher and came to the conclusion that there was nothing criminal about it. He, however, gave the rider a sharp lecture about the indifferent exhibition of riding he put up on Searcher and in conclusion warned him to be more careful or he would come to grief. J. W. Colt purchased Arian from P. Dunne yesterday, and the horse ran in the name and colors of his new owner in the Monadnock Handicap. Yesterdays fields for the six races were on the average the largest that have lined up to the barrier in one day since the local racing season began. Otis pulled up very lame after the Monadnock Handicap, and it was with difficulty that he could be led back to his stable. At first it was feared that he had hopelessly broken down, but such did not prove the case.
