Oliver, is an arrival at Fort Erie from Maryland. Nerger is witli the stable trained by T. E. Crist. Trainer James II. McCreery has purchased from John K. Madden for A. J. Davis the four-year-old chestnut gelding King Simon, by imported Sea King Ethelinda II. Miramichi came out of his last race in bad condition. Shortly after the start he was jumped on and one of his tendons was almost cut in two. Trainer Burttschell has but little hope of ever getting him to the post again. T. J. Shannon will ship Beautiful Morn and Kentucky Boy to Saratoga at the conclusion of the Fort. Erie meeting.

The rain Sunday made it muddy, lint it has since dried out thoroughly and is as fast as ever in its history. There are twenty or more horses stabled there, including the Jlendrie two-year-olds and all are lxung afforded abundant cliance for work.
