A DULL DAY AT GRAVESEND.
POOR RACING AND LITTLE INTEREST.
THE CONTESTS CHIEFLY CONFINED TO THE BEIGH-
TON BEACH DIVISION.

The mir was cold and raw at Sheepshead
Bay yesterday, but the attendance was exceedingly
large for afternoon that promised so little OF comfort
or enjoyment The list OF contests was the least at
tractive yet the September meeting OF the
C5ney Island Jockey Club horses OF the Brighton Beach
class making up the majority of tie entries There was
nothing more grateful TO genuine eturfmen during tue
long season at Monmouth Park than the limited part
played there by the Brighton Beach division WITH its
peculiar set OF owners and its unhappy lot OF hacks
Some owners OF integrity have been known TO race horses
of some merit at Brighton Beach, bet the whole atmos-
phere and influence the place have done inure
the American trf and bring racing into contempt than
all other influences combined. IL il true the judges
AT Brighton above suspicion in every way but the
whole end and aim of the racing there Is simply and
solely the poo-box 1t Is entitled to the sup
port aud OF reputable turimen than are Inc
faro banks which have abounded at Coney Island this
year. Keeping faro bank is against the law 30 Is the
pool box exactly as much, and when raee-course Is
conducted exclusively for the pool-box 1t must always
sink to the level OF the faro bonk
Green Morris OF the six races yesterday with
FelIowpay anu Apollo boh being much superior to any
of their opponents PzaIro strong favorlte in the
first race bat ran much bcOT his true form. lie was
supposed to he almost inyncible In short RICE but
Fellowllay right away from him. William Don
ohue rode both Apollo and Feilowplay. The selling
race OF n mile fell to Old Dan r., while Pierre Lorards
oily Zamora daughter OF Saxon aud Zoo Zoo. took the
selling race for two yearOlds. In the high weight
handicap Vousa was an overwhelming fayoriie ana
Pkes PRIDE caused general surprise by winning Both
OF the han cas were utter failures Sd lar close con-
tests were concerned Major Wheeler was lowest in the
betting on the etcepleohpse but won easily enough.
