Bound the World. Starry Night, Any Part and Messenger Moy. furnished tbe spectators with thrills and gave Hie backers of Uoiiml the World, the odds-on favorite, considerable concern before the judges displayed the numbers of the placed three. Round the World was given the verdict over flriiTM Hughes and Mettie Sue, imses separating the tri#, with Messenger Moy only a band away. The latter was much the best, but slowness in getting away from the post accounted for his being a distant trailer for three-quarters, while Graver Hughes was out in front by many lengths, with Mettie Sue aud Round. the World closest to him and the rest of the field well strung out. In the stretch Grover Hughes began iHuing out and Round the World moved up courageously. At the last furlong post Messenger Hoy was still far back, but he closed the gap with n. magnificent burst of sliced, was going the fastest at the end and would have won in a few more strides. On his showing today he holds Round the World safe in the Latonia Derby and looms as a factor for the honors. IL 0. Hallenbecks crack two-year-old. Worth, added another victory to his score by impressively winning the opener over Working Lad and Callsse. The latter was conceded a good chance to taka Worths measure, the distauce. half a mile, being held to be especially to her liking.

Adams Kx-press and Al Midler landed at the finish noses apart in I he order named. Donna, one of the starters in the Tace, exhibited his mean traits and probably is done as a serviceable racing tool.
