Autumn ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS. "Argument" (Ponsonby). — Willi gst you the required iuiormatiou and publish it on Wednesday. Mr C. O'Connor has been appointed starttr to the TnaUnn Racing Club. A. Hail, -iminer of Kremlin, is at present on a visit to Auckland on private busiuess. Newtown, wlio has been enjoying a spell for some time past Is to be put Into work »£B.iu s-hortly. SUathavou was shipped to Taranakl on Thursday to lulnl his engagement In the Taranakl Cup. The nominations received last uight for tho Otahuhu Trotiug Clnb's Summer Meeclag constitute a record. Xr.iQlnatioas for nil events fit the Tuakau Riiang Club's anuual meeting close nest I , liday, the IUtU lust., at y p.m. Muthema showed pace in her engagements on the two first days of Tnkapuna, but does nut seem to be able to stay. Manku is to be givyn another opportunity to distinguish himself upon the turf, aud he has goue into Koss Heiuon's charge. The fillj by Hutchkiss—Lady Emily, purchased ut the lust Wellington Park sale by Mi J. Gray, hus hud the name of Marie Corelll i.'lninjed Tor her. The Needle aiMl Neodlpr.ork wei'e shipped to Uisborne to-dny in ei.argo of G. Comer to fulfil thelv eiitfageuieiits at the forthcoming mcuing; there. Auckland is likely to be well represented at the forthcuiulny: Taranakl meetiug. Quite n large number of local sportsmen have siguilied their intention of making the trip. Word comes from New Plymouth that GreuaUe, who Is owned by Dan O'Brien, Is a useful sort of a horse that may repay wu.iiing in his engagements at the Taranuki Meetiug. ' Eighty guineas was offered for Dunmore when he was submitted for auctiou by the N.Z. Loan and Mercantile Co. yesterday, but he was passed in. The reserve ou him (was 150 guineas. Nervine was a trifle sore nftpr his efforts at Talcapuna, and it was deemed advisable to let him drop out of his Tarannki engagements. A short rest should see him all right again. Para-tutti's displays on the first two clays of tbi' Takapuna Summer Meeting suggest thjt he has more than an outside chance it, the Taranaki Cup; in fact,"! .think whatever beats him will about land the stake. C. Colenian hns had an addition to his st r !ng In the 81,-ape of the chestnut xiare Tjctorin'.', by Cr.ator —Victoria, consequently fnil sister to that good horse Kiatere. Vicloritie is very much In the rough at presetif. ..■John liae, tlie well-known local trainer, loaves on Tuesday for G-isborne to ntt n nd the Uisborne Racing Clnb and Poverty Kay Turf Club Meetings. It is twenty years elme John was in Gisborne, at which t:: :e be was one of our leading horsemen over countryThe many friends of J. McHugh, the well known trainer, will regret to learn that he has had to undergo a serious operation. The operation, which was performed by Drs. I'abst aud Scott, was a successful one, and there is every possibility of McHugh being abuut again shortly. R. Hannon ha 3 been having a run of bad luck with the horses he trains hvtc-ly, and In addition to Zuleika goiug wrong Glasgow serins aH to pieces just now. while Mill! , * and Hautapu, both of which look wei l "could not win under their haudicapa (V the lirst two days of the Takapuaa ilt'etlDg. One of the surprises in connection with the Taranaki Meeting was the withdrawal ef Kremlin from his engagements on tlie lirst day of the gathering. Ou all hands he was admited to be most leniently treated In the sprint «?vents, and his defection •nggests that all is not well with the son of Stepniak. A large number of Auckland horses clalintoe engagements at the Tnranakl Jockey Club's meeting are to be shipped South by the Iturnwa on Sunday. Amongst the number ure Delanla, Golden Sands, General Average. Numa, Innisklllen. Snn Paulo, Pearl Necklet, Dolores, Idasa, Lady Annie, Khama, Irish, Eugraver, and Putty. Glaastoue seems to have fully recovered from the ailment which befell him after the Summer Meeting. He is restricted to trotting exercise, and is looking In great heart. I don't remember ever seeing him carrying so much condition as lie is at present. All goinz well with him lv the inpantiaie. there Is every probability of his fulfilling his engngerrent in the X.Z. Sr. Letter, which is rim at the Wclllnptcm Kueing Club's Au- i tumu Meeting Iα April. Andy Regau. who was purchased during ' the running of the last C..T.C. National | Meeting by a patron of C. Weal's stable, | but who failed to show anything like deer at form when he raced in Auckland, has | lv'en put in work again' after a spell of two or three months. Andy Regau has built up a lot during his Idlouoss, but whether he will repay Mr} I'onncctioiis for the trouble they have expended upon him is a matter of conjecture. Old Hnydn, who has been enjoying a spell of about Bix months, has made his reappearance at Ellerslie. The old horse during I\i3 retirement hns assumed aldcrmanic proportions, and It would be safe to Viet tint those who only remember the gelding as he appeared on the racecourse would not rccopuiae him as ho is now. By appear-ain-es it will be some time before he is in racing trim again. The : knocking about Scotty received in thw Takapuna Cup was the cause of his withdrawal from his Taraunkl engagements. The horse is very sore, aud at present there is not the remotest chance of his fulfilling his engagement in the ngmout Cup. This is renl hard luck for his connections, as ■the St. Leger gelding was in great buckle, and on his recent running was almost sure to have earned a trifle more than his oats at the West Coast meetings.

I The attention of horse owners Is drawn 'to the programme for the Ohinemad Jockey Club's annual meeting, which takes place on Friday and Saturday, 17th and 18th of March. The principal evesats to be d»laea at the gatlierlng ar« the Ohlnemuri (-'up of lOOsovs, P&eroa Handicap of 70*>v«, [and two steeplechasua, one of 60aova and one ot COsovs. Takeii ffcjwuefa, the [prize list is a liberal one, and uo doulut the I club will be rewarded with a record entry. ] Nominations jjo in on Saturday, the 18th (of February. It seems extraordinary that Loch Lomond should fall so consistently at the same fence. First of all he fell at .the T-akapun* I Spring Meeting, fatally injuring nla rider; then, on the opening day of the same club* Summer Meeting, he fell, hie rider breaking his collarbone, and then on Monday be fell again, his rider escaping with slight injuries. Loch Lomond jumps all liia other fences in a race most proficiently, and Iβ his schooling he mates no mistakes, and It Is strange that he sboudd ao peraUtently blunder at the one fence. Evidently he has Lost confidence in himself regarding Ui-at one jump. • Mr R. McMillan raturned to New Zeeland on Tuesday by the Sierra from a trip Ito America, and brought back with him a number of trotting stock. The lot comprised a two-year-old col* Harold Dillon, by Sidney Dillon, sire of the world-famous Lou Dillon; Maurdtus, a three-year-old colt; Wallace L., a six-year-old horse by Binjen, who has a 2.6 record; a brown mare unnamed, four-year-old, by James Maddlaon; and a bay mare, aged, by Sidney. Taken altogether, the five mentioned aa-e about the he..i pedigree lot ever brought .to this colony, aud the breeding of th« two colts could" nvL be surpassed in the world. They were taken on to Ghrietchuxeh to-day by the Tarawera. OTAHUKU TROTTING CLUBThe following nominations have been received for the Otahuhu Trotting Club's meeting:— FIIiST DAY.
