YEARLINGS AT NEW ORLEANS. New Orleans, La., December 12. Juvenile racing is bound to be a most interesting feature of local sport after the first of the year. It is estimated that at least forty per cent more yearlings are quartered at the two tracks than were ever before gathered here. In fact, - about one-third of the track stalls are occupied by the baby racers. The biggest western lots, and the best, are in the barns of E. Corrigan, P. Dunne and R. Tucker. Nearly all of the eastern owners brought down yearlings to develop and train, both for the valuable stakes and purses here, as well as for the early spring meetings of the eastern circuit. With such an abundance of material to draw from secretary McGinn will make ample provision for the youngsters, in his programs on and after January 1.
