HAGGINS POOR SALE IN ENGLAND. At the Newmarket. England, sales of July 13 a number of broodmares, the property of J. B. Haggin. were sold at prices that could hardly have paid the expense of their transportation to England. The mares would have brought more at auction in this country. Mr. Iiaggiu, in sending them to a foreign market, was entirely within his rights as an owner, but at the same time his lack of consideration for the thoroughbred interests of his own country is obvious. The mares are needed in this country and should have been offered to his own countrymen. At the least, the-could not have sold for lower prices, than they did in England, and would have remained here to assist in the maintenance of racing in future.
