ZIEGLER PLEASED WITH BARLEYTH0RPE. Saratoga. N. Y., August 10. nenry M. Zlegler was 11111611 gratified at the showing made by Barlev-tliorpe in the Hopeful. The big barrelled Wools-tliorpe colt showed a; fine turn of speed and made a game fight. Barteythorpe will be fitter at Shecps- : . head Bay than he has been here. He ran Saturday off comparatively little w;ork. It was less than a. week since he had recovered from a distemper that would have put a"lcss rpbust horse on" the shelf for a month Or more. It is Improbable that William S. Fanshawe and Morton and Charles Schwartz will purchase Barley thorpe. Charles Hughes wants 5,000 for him. and they do not care to make such an Investment. Bar-lovthprpe will bear the colors of Mr. Zlegler in the Futurity at Sheopshead Bay, anil also in several other races to be run "at that track. There Is a possibility of his meeting Waldo in the Flatbush or the Great Eastern. :
