1 1 FRENCH YEARLINGS BRING GOOD PRICE Forty-Four Youngsters from the Delbert Reiff Consignment Sell for 37,475. By J. L. Dempsey. Saratoga. N. Y., August 7. The consignment of yearlings brought here by Delbert Reiff, from France, and which were bred in some of the most famous studs of that country, including that .of Baron de Rothschild, were offered for sale by auction in the spacious Faslg-Tipton sale mart, and attracted an immense attendance Saturday at both evening and night sales. The youngsters on the-whole . were not a prepossessing appearing band in the matter of looks, but their beautiful breeding caused an anxiety for possession. This was notably true in regards to the fillies sired by the noted Sardanapale, styled "the greatest horse in France," for which Baron de Rothschild refused the big sum of 1,000,000 francs. Forty-four youngsters were put under the hammer, constituting the Reiff offering and they brought the total of 37,475. There was also a sale of seven colts owned by F. R. Hitchcock, sired by the American horse Yankee, but the youngsters -were bred in France. Delbert Reiff Consignment.
