MARYLAND JOCKEY CLUB. Second Day of the Fall Meet- ing at Baltimore. IMMENSE GATHERING AT PIMLICO. The Western Champion, Ten Broeck, Buaten by Parole, Idalia, Viceroy and Deadhead Win Spirited Contests. a [sx TELEGRAPH TO THE BERALD.] Bartimons, Md., Oct, 24, 1877. The largest crowd thet ever assembled within the enclosures of the Pimlico Course was there to-day to witness what was supposed to be the greatest race of modern times, a contest between the three most famous horses in the couutry—Ten Broeck, ‘iom Ochiltree and Parole—and, like some of the races of the past, it was considered a champion contest be- tween the East and West. The race was run and tho Easy won easily, but the performance of the champion 1e Weat was so uolike anything that he has been doing in bis own ection of the country that it is the universal opinion of all unprejudiced people that he wus very much out of condition, or be could not have been defeated in such ordinary time, the first mile of the race being beaten twice by the hurdlers in their race which followed immediately jerward. From daylight i» the morning until noon people in crowd re moving out to Pimlico to learn ali they could, and sce, if possible, the horses take thoir morn. ing exercise, From eleven until one o’clock the roads leading through Druid Park to the ruce course were crowded with the private carriages of the wealthy citizens of Bultimore, Strangers and others not owning vebicles were compelied to take what they could get to convey them to the ruces, aud there wero queer contrivances put in requisition iu which to get there and buck, andall who aturted no doubt witnessed the races, Thore was no way of estimating the pum- bers that were within the enclosure, as long before the boll rang for horses to be brought on the track the tickets were all sold and the crowd at the gates were admitted iree, to tho umber of about 2,000 or more, Two races preceded the great event of the day, but these only seemed to whet the appetite of the multitude for the other, and as soon ag that was over the majority of the peopie left the course in their desire to get away from the crowd and reach their homes in salety, All except those who bucked the Western horse seemed delighted with the result, and at the Ouish of the race, alter the horses returmed to the judges’ stand, the. people rushed around the winner, Pu- role, shouting wildly, and would have car- fied the horace in their arms, as they did Barrett, Lule jockey, if they could have got at him. ‘The horse ‘was frightened at their noise, while little Barrett seemed to-like the fun of being carried around ou tho Shoulders of the people. The Western delegation present a very dejected appearance to-night and have little to say ubout their defeat’ They do not seem uble to account for it in any manner, ‘tuey know shat the borse commenced purging as soon as he be- $an ranning and continued to do so during tne race, but what caused this illness cannot be got at at present, and they do not offer a reasonable Opinion, Old Mr. Harper is terribly depressea by the deteat of his pet, and seems very much mortified at the result, and # is very probable that he, will leave jor home as soon as he can arrange to get away. Mr. PY. Loruiard backed his borse gamely, and is said to have won $30,000. Tue other ruces were ali good and gave great sutisiaction to the multitude assembied, ON MILE, Tho first raco was one mile, for all ages, to carry 105 bs, ; mares and geldings allowed 3 Ibs.; winners of a single race since September 29, 1817, to curry 5 lbs, extra; of two races since that time, 10 Ibs. extra; purse $250 tor the Hirst horse and $50 tor the second, Yor this eveut there were eleven starters, comprising George Longstafl’s bay filly Yorkshire Lass, by King of Tramps, dam Rona, 4 years old; J.

Although pleasant and bright enough to tempt one | to jump into the saddie for a good gallop yester- day was by vo means a good day for fox hunting. ‘The air was too dry, the sun a little too hot and the breeze just strong enough, with such conditions of | temperature as provailod, to dispose very speedily of | a seont These considerations, however, detracted nothing from the popular interest in the regdilar meet of the Queens county bounds. On the contrary, tho fuot that the day was what is generally appreciated as one of a very ploasant sort tended to bring outa large field of horsemen and a host of spectators in vehicles of various kinds. ‘I'he hour of meeting was, as usual, one o'clock P, M., the place Mineola Hotel, Toward noon the crowd commenced to guthor, and by that time carriages cou'd be seen approaching by the various roads leading | to the point of rendezvous, Their occupants were | mainly residents of the county, und included aged farmers aud their wives and daughiers; young men of the neighborhood, venind brisk steppimg naga, and ladies in light carriages, who ought to have graced the | ocousion on horseback, ‘There wero also present some | Prominent citizens of New York, some small boys afoot aud several brawny ullers of the soil 1m work-a- day suits, Taken altogether this was tue most spirited attendance yet assembled at any of the ruvs. AT GARDRN CITY, The recent chanye of 6 on the Long Island Rail- Toad somewhat puzzied New Yorkers desirous of pure Velpating in tho aclighis of the chase. They found only one train leaving in the morning for Garden City, and that started earlicr than had been the custom pre Vious to the recent change. ‘The consequence was that several geutlewmen who stable their hunters at Garden City im order to be io time were obliged to go by train to Mineola and drive across to Garden City to get tueir horses. At this point were uasembled Mr, Lloyd 8. Bryce, Mr, Robert Ceu- ter, Mr. Beimont Purdy, Mr, E. Zvorowski, Mr. Pierre Lorillard, Jr.; Mr. Frost, Mr, W.E. Peet, Mr. Clar- ence Levey, Mr. W. C.

Looking at the bounds as they ran avout waiting for the start it was pleasant to find them in such excellent condition, showing the care be- stowed upon them. The coats of the dogs were cloan and noat, and they proved fall of spirit and melody when the scent was taken up.
