Hautapn wus -well In front when he Ml in the first Rteeplechase at the A.J.C. Winter Meeting, but, making no mistakes on the second day, won as he HUed. He was ridden on both days by the ex-Auckland horseman G. Phillips, and competed on the first day in the ■name of J. <iallagher, but on the (second day he raced In the nomination of T. Tobias. A meeting of the A.X.C. Committee wae held last evening, wtien a statement of accounts In connection with the recenr winter meeting was submitted. The statement ehowed the Government tax to he £IS2B 10/2, ns against £113r, for the corresponding year, making a total °t £'}f 3/8 paid to the Dominion Treasury by the club tilts season. Th<> profit on the winter meeting -was about the same as last year. The committee nppolntefl by the N~.Z.

I would not appear at present as if the Conference was going to have much Fay - on the question of totallsator permits, and « it rather savours of comic opera for them < to invite applications for permits.

The llaeterton owner-trainer, XI. T. M'Grath, is at present making arrangements for the shipment of his team to Melbourne. As all the available space lias been secured on the Sydney boat from Wellington A for some weeks ahead, by southern shippers of draught horses, It Is probable that Gunboat and Co. will be scut to Australia via the Bluff. . It The Racing Commission is to met again ppt on Mondaynnextt t -when the long-delayed '*" report Is to be again considered. It Iβ given as a reason for (the further meeting being called that certain formalities have not been complied with; but the report ijjj should soon, be available, and, after the time given to the question, we should get — an equitable redistribution. Mr. John Howe, the Auckland member on the Commission, leaves for Wellington on Friday night. TtJRF TALK FROM THE SOUTH. (By Telegraph.- Special to "Star.") CH'RISTCnO'BCH, this day. Tho general topic of conversation at ißiccarton has been the weather, which was remarkably line, but Saturday brought a change, and lieavy rain and high winds have prevailed since. Aβ a result of the copious rainfall 'the trucks are in many places under water, and operations during ■tho next few days will chiefly be confined ■to the roads. Until Saturday the ploughed truck was in capital order, but now it will scarcely be workable until the spring, aud the tuu and sand tracks will 'be those chiefly used. "~"* There has been a busy week amongst the jumpers, and scarcely a day has passed without some schooling work being done. On Wcrtuesdny St. Aiilati, with Dorando for a school master, jjave a cupltnl display over the pniiy Jiurdlea, nnU the finished inanuer 111 wlilrh lie 'fenced suggests that the son of 'Blrkcnheiid lias previously been schooled over the battens. On -Saturday a nice pipcps of schooling was witnessed over the] : Irljr 'fences between iJorando and Sea Dug. 1 Se.i Dog. which save n line display of fenc- j inc. led his companion practically through- \ out until lauding over t.lie stxl wall thej second time, when ihe was eased up, leaving Doramli), which had fenced creditably, If M'MiiPWhat slcvwly, to complete the circuit

Uγ himself. Mi-. Hucklcy's lioi-se showed a| i slight tendency to shirk the lrrush fences, | I iikl thus lost some ground by dwelling,: II !>ut Colcinuu straightened him up ■wiUi , I a Ow cuas of the whip, which had the! V desired plTect, and on the whole there | * vtji.s little 'fault to find Willi!? the effort of tlio sun of Sun 'Fran. During the same morning. Merredo, with the veteran 'chaser Slow Trail for n schoolmaster, gave a •aip.tal display over the poiiy hurdles, while l.'auiepiiury and Sapience also performed a schooling task over the pony hurdles. Saplewc fenced fairly creditably, but Canterbury's effort was susceptible irf much Improvement. Wedge and St. Aidun jumped the two flights of pony hnrdies twice, and both horses Ceuci.il ijuiukly and cleverly. !•'. Chi-i.5;n..i.5, in charge of that consistent V porforiner The Cornet and Expansion, has, * taken up hi* quarters at Uierartou. Christ-i ~" mug will pn>liauly remain here until after our Grand .Yatioual meeting, and It Is not „. unlikely that one or more members of his i m ~~ team may be sent over from the West' Const to jolu his division here. The chestnut gelding Togo by Cajolery, ' — the property of Mr. 11. Watson, i's the latest addition to I). \V. Moraghan's increasing team. Togo is n plain-looking gelding that uocs not liiiprnss one as behii; likely to! earn much distinction upon the turf. Definite arrangements hnve been made I for It. J. Mason and J. It. Franks to leave ; with their respective teams for Randwi.-k nil June liO, which is much earlier than the I il.ite previously taken .for horses leaving 1 here to compete at the Australian Jockey Mulis Spring MfMinu. No doubt Mason fllii] I'ranks are anxloiia to get their horses lorated at Haudwlck, for they will then iv I nil pn,h:,hllliy enjoy the ndvuntaffrs of good working ground and (.'uugetiinl climate for t'hi-ir charges.
