GROWING LIVELY AT NEW ORLEANS. New Orleans, La., November 24. The work of removing the temporary buildings erected for exhibits, during the National Live Stock Show, held at the Fair Grounds, is progressing in rapid fashion and few traces of the once splendid show will be noted in the next few days. The track and plant will again soon present a normal appearance. The numerous horses that have centered here during the last month have not, even during the progress of the Fair, been subject to any let up in their training" operations. The track was open for their accommodation during the forenoon and trainers took advantage of the ideal weather and track, to give their charges plenty of exercise. Already the number of horses in this locality is well over the two hundred mark. The Maryland contingent is expected immediately after the close of the Bowie meeting. At least three hundred are scheduled to come from that point and Kentuckys late consignment will also go over one hundred. In the last batch will be those of R. L. Itaker, J. F. Schorr and Jefferson Livingston. The town is rapidly taking on a racing air, for arrivals of turf followers has been steady. The accident sustained by Manager I. B. Renny-son has not retarded the work of getting matters in order at the course. Mr. Rennyson is confined at the Hotel Dieu, but directs routine work pertaining to the track through a corps of assistants. The fracture of his left leg was a bad one and will keep him incapacitated for the next month. Frank J. Bruen, who will act as auditor at the Havana track, was an arrival today, enroute to the Cuban capital.
