There were two trots, in the first of which a very serious accident oc- curred. The white horse Walter S. was run into by Central Boy, aad his sulky broken down and the driver thrown out. This caused the horse to Tun away, and he ran around the track with the broken sulky dangling at his heels.

Vance and Wheeler were Dromptly on hand, but the Mayor kept the members waiting until a quarter past one o'clock, when he emerged from his office in the company of Police Commis- sioner Charlick, and with him walked over to the New Court House. AS soon as the old gentleman appeared the managing Director of the Board—the Comptroiier—bronugnt forth his papers and busi+ ness was at once commenced tn earnest, The Commissioner of Public Works transmitted a@ communication to the Board with a@ resolution requesting the {sue of “Croton Water Main” stock to the amount of $300,000. The Comptroller amended the resolution cutting down the amount to $150,000, He said thatas the streets through which these mains are to be laid will probably not be used for the next ten years, he could see no reason Why so much money should be appropri- ated, The amendment was carried by a full vote. A measure which should have been adopted long ago, viz., the payment of the clerks of the Board of Audit, was then taken up. The sum of $2,000 had been voted to them by the Board of Supervisors April 13, and the Board of Audit di- reeted to raise the money therefor. Only yester- day the Comptroller discovered that he could transfer this xmount from the salary appropria- tion of the Department of Taxes and Assessments, | and to pat Mr, Wheeler on the back he proposed @ resolution to that effect, which, coming from him, was duly adopted. The Park Commissioners asked for an appropri- ation of $200,000 jor the Museum of Art and Nat- ural History in Central Park, Mr, Vance moved that this amount be reduced one-half, which was adopted. ‘fhe Comptrolier handed in a statement and res- olution to appropriate the sum of $542,312, which he said was the amount due to property owners from the city on the Lexington avenue opening from 102d street to the Harlem River, This amount had been awarded by the Commussioners, consisting of Willtam Hinchtian, Sheppard Knapp Daniel Whaien, and came now beiore the Board im the shape of a mandamus from the courts. The Comptroller wanted to know why some of the lots about 18h and 107th streets Were awarded at the rate of $3,000 each while others ouiy received $1,500. He, however, could see no other alternative but to pay, as the man- dainus is compnisory, Mayor Havemeyer wanted the matter to lie over to look into tt further, and this course waa adopted. On motion of the Comptroller the following reso- lutiun was adopted :— Resolved, That the following amounts be and the same are hereby appropriated for expenses prior to the yea Tr the todowing tides of accounts, fo wi 1374, unc ¥ bartizents and Judiciary xtionery, IW and BIANS LOOKS...5...

From private cousumption the company derived scarcely any benetit. The district in which this company has @ franchise covers an area of 5,025 acres; 16 32-100 mites of mains had been laid, from which 932 street lamps Were i:yhted, against 392 private dweliings, Ou Locust avenue there were sixty-two public lamps and only three private consumers.

The horse bled to death in a very short time. The horse that caused the mischief—Central Boy, @riven by Peter Manee—was dangerously Injured by jumping on the wheel of the white horse's suiky, ‘which cut a very large gash in his breast. When he came to the score, at the end of the heat, the blood was gushing out ina stream that sprinkled over the track. Dr. Ogle, the veterinarian, fortu- ately was on the ground, and he sewed up the ‘wound and made the horse as comfortable as pos- Bible, and hopes are entertained that the horse ‘will live, The horse that was killed belonged to T. A. & Anderson Warren, of Watertown, Conn., and was valued at $2,500, which was to have been paid for him after the race by a party from Provi- aence, R. I. The track was in capital condition for fast | trotting, and but for the fog and the accidenta Mine afternoon's sport would have been enjoyed, as the unusual number of fourteen horses started for the 2:45 purse. This was won by Lady Dahiman, a very large, fine, square gaited young mare, that wives promise of much spged in the future. She Scted admirably in company of so many horses, nd never made a break in the race. She was driven by John Murphy, and won in three congecu- tive heats. ‘The second heat was between Castle Boy, Crown Prince and Triumph, and this race also terminated in tnree heats, all of which were won by Castle Boy easily, in most excellent time.
