FLEETWOOD PARK. First Day of the First Annual Breeders’ Meeting. TWO TROTTING EVENTS. Result and Effie the Winners. The first anneal meeting of the breeders of trotting borses was inauguratea at Fleetwood Park yesterday, and although a large number of persons interested Ip the advancement of the trotting horse attended there ‘was not that large gathering of the prominent breed- ers prosent tliat was anticipated. Many of the leading breeders of the country were conspicuous by their absence. Mr, Backman was not there, Major Morton was absent, nearly all the lurge stock raisers of Orange county were at home, and, im fact, disappointment was exhibited by the crowd at not seoing these gentlemen at the meeting Notwithstanding the absence of the gentiemen pamed Yhe sports came off as satisfactorily as if they had beea on the ground, and the admirers of good trotting were satisfed with the trotting that was given, particularly the stallion race, which had five closely contested beats Defore the affair was decided, tho race being won by JonnS, Bliss’ bay stallion Result, by Jupiter Abdallah— Compromise, by Humbletonian, who won the three last heats of the race, the first two being won by R. Penistan’s bay stallion Nil Dosperandum, by Alexe ander’s Belmont—Lady Kenny, whose pedigree fs unknown, King Poilip, Champion, Jr, and Montezuma also started, but the two last pamed were never prominent in the raco, except by being im the rear. A plousing feature during the afternoon was a mile trial of Mr. Penistan’s three-year-old filly Efe after she won the $1,000 purse for foals of 1874 She trotted remark- ably fast, and although not an equal for Elaine, she is one of the wonders of the age. Effe is « small filly tn height, but is remarkably compactly proportioned, aod bas as perfoct a trotting gait as was ever wil nessed in young or old horses, She went to tho quar- ter pole in 37% seconds, to the half-mile pole in 1:13, and came home, with two breaks on the bill of the backstreteh, in 2:39%%. ‘This little filly is a bdenuty, and has few equals for speed in thi country. The wenther was fine end thetrack in fair condition, but not as fast as it sometimes 18 when well packed a day or two after a heavy rain, and the time made updor the circum- stances was most excellent, The following are the de- tails of the conditions of the trotting contests that came off:— The first trot was for a purse of $2, 500 for all stall. fene that have mot beaten 2:28; $1,200 to the first, $625 to the second, $375 to the third and $260 to the fourth horse; mile heats, best three in ve, in bar- ness, For thisevent there were twelvo entries, tive oft which came to the post. These were Richard Pen- {gtan’s bay stallion Nil Dosperandum, by Alexander’s Belmont—Laay Kenny; John J, Bliss’ bay stallion Result, by Jupiter Abdallas—Compromise, by Ham- bletonian; J. P, Gilberts bay stullion King Philip, by Jay Gould; Israel Denton’s bay stalhon Champion, Jn, by Mamorino Champion, and George Ticehurat’s Day stallion Montezuma, by Edward Everewt. Tue was a futile attempt at bookmaking on the trotting, but the spectators did not seem to take to the game, and hittle was done, Ny Desperandum won the first heat by a head, after a very hurd struggle with Résull, the others engaged faving very littie chance with the leaders. Monte- Zuma was witndrawn alter the first heat. The seeond ‘Beat was won by Nil Desperandum with more to spare than in the previous heat. The third heat was won ‘vy Result, with King Poilip second, Nil Desperandum third, Champion, Jr., fourth. And the fourth and fifth Deuts and the race were won by the gallant son of Ju- Piler Abdallah. He is a fine, showy horse, of good size And commuuding appearance when at the top of nis speed. His fine breeding mast make bim a popular horse when his trotting career 1s over. Nil Desperan- dum did not come up to the expectation of bis ad- mirers, who were astonished to see bim fall off when they supposed speed was historte. King Philp made avery fair race and beat Nil Desperandum for piuc in the three last heats. ‘The second trot tor a purse of $1,000, for fouls Of 1874; $500 to the Orst, $260 to whe second, $150 to ‘Ube third and $100 to the fourth horse; mile beats, ia barness. ‘There were eight entries, two only of which Bane to the post. ‘hese were 0’Gorman Hehir’s bul volt Touchstone, by Miadletown, and Richard Penistan’s buy lly Efile, by Almont, Ihe latter won very easily An two straight heats.

Fully three thousand men assembled in Gilmore’s Garden last. night to witness the much talked of Grmco-Roman wrestling match between Thibaud Bauer and Professor William Muller, Among tho audience were several city officials and well kuown personages. Sbertly after eight o’clock the master of ceremonies Dan Whitaker, appeared on the platform and an nounced that William Clark had been selected as referee, and that Emil Regnier would act as umpire for Bauer and Mr. Austin tor Professor Miller, Amid much clapping of hands the atn'etes made their appearance, Miller, stout aod warlike, looked the personification of gigantic strength. His musel: looked like iron, and his face wore a pleasing ¢x- pression as if ere confident of victory. Bauer, although more slender, was 1 embodimeat of ‘athletic agility, outrivalling Miller tn this re- spect, Both’ men were attired in blue and white wghts At twenty-three minutes ast eight the athletes took hold. For iteon minutes the wrertling was rather tame, both men appearing unusually cautious and each anxious for the other to begin tho battie by some vigorous move. The first approach toa fall was by Bauer, who, tired of the skirmishing, mado a des- porate dash, and, by # fine exbivition of strength, lifted Miller completely off bis feet and deposited bim sideways onthe padded platform. No fall was of course deciared, but tho cheeriug and shouting was scarcely less boisterous than if one had been allowed. in renewing their hold, more timidity and by-pl: was indul; tm, and for about twenty minutes the match was about even, Occasionally Miller got an e: cellent bold on bis antagonist, but the advantage w; each time short-lived, as by dexterity and suppleness Bauer always managed to get clear of hia poril, Shortly before nine o'clock Bauer made a second flue display of his skull by lifting Miller in the air, Who landed on his bands and feet After this no little interest was concentrated im a position in whicn the ath- letes remained for an unusuully longtime, Millerhad jeceeded in getting Bauer on bis hands and knees; ling besiae him he remained wating in pa- his opportunity, but nove came, although ishing took piace. ‘Tne position wus te struggle in which neither ne was called, and an intermission of took place, during which the attend. thoir respective principals. begun the same’ tactics were re- peated and continued with' varying success until 10h. 30m., when another rest took place At 10h, 50m, the men once more began, und it was evi- dent taut earnest business was meant. At 11h. 04m, Miller secured the first fall.
