COLT .BY ADAM STAR OF SALE. Satisfactory Prices Realized for Yearlings Yesterday at- Sbecpshcad Bay Paddocks. New York. July 5. Thirty-nine thoroughbred yearlings from Blue Ridge. Millstream and Maple-liurst Studs were auctioned olt at tlio Sheepshead Bay paddocks of the Fasig-Tipton Company today for a total of 4,175, an average of a trifle over per head. It was the biggest and most im-liortant sale of the season thus far and was attended by many prominent Americans, as well as representatives of English and French buyers. Of the thirteen colts and fillies owned by Messrs. Andrew Miller and F. C. Bishop, which brought 3,500. the one sired by the great French stallion, Adam, attracted the most attention and keenest bidding. James It. Keene was a persistent bidder throughout the sale and, though seemingly desirous of .acquiring an Adam-bred youngster, failed to go high enough to get one. A majority of the choice Millstream offerings were knocked down to J. A. Bennet. who was said to lie acting for the owners who race as the Newcastle Stable. With these acquisitions the Newcastle Stable bids fair to become the strongest racing organization on the turf so far as young material Is concerned. The highest-priced yearling sold was a chestnut .colt by Adam Grace Gumbert, which brought ,100. James It. Keene and W. E. I. Stokes paid ,100 each for Katonah, by Hamburg Spindrift and The Spy II.. by Disguise Semper Paratus. Mr. Stokes, a multi-millionaire and an extensive breeder of trotters, was making his initial investment in thoroughbred stock. He is the most important recruit to racing since William C. Whitney. Shortly after the sale Francis C. Bishop, of the Newcastle Stable, received a cablegram announcing a victory in France, at the first asking, by one of the first of the produce of Adam to race.
