A large number of persons assembled in the commercial-room of the Criterion Hotel last evening, when the metallioiana " called over the odds." The business done was not lar^e, although several wageru were booked. The horses most in favor for the Hawke's Bay Steeplechase were Macaroni, Druid, and New Year. For the double— Maiden and Handicap — Dhudeen and The Druid was taken once or twice at 100's to 5, and Rimu and Nukurau with Macaroni was nibbled at 100 to 4. The betting to-day and this evening will, no doubt, be of a more animated character.
