RACING IN FOG AND RAIN.

FUI AND OCEAN STAKES WON BY THE DWfEks
Fourth of July always attracts great multitude 10
Monmouth Park Yesterday the immense grand stand
the big betting pavilion and the best places on the
grounds for seeing the were crowded with people
The sport was spoiled by the rain, which made the
track a quagmire and by the heavy fog in which the
tboroueLbrods were at times completely lost to the
view of the spectators Many horses were withdrawn
leaving only two to run in the first, fifth and last
races Mr. Pncus made shocking starts lie
can never be competent starter, because he has no
control over the Jockeys Roth the Hopeful Stakes
and the Ocean Stakes the two chief prizes OF the Day
were taken by the Dryer Brothers, but in the Hopeful
their success was due to Rchmonds running start
The transportation facilities were sadly overtaNed I'D
taking the thousands present to their homes ana some
of the trims were deporably late. And there were
some unreasonably delays between races In such an
afternoon with the air reeking and the Neworsey soil
all mud the public would have been best pleased to
have had the sport closed later than hafpast five
o'clock With the small fields it would have been easy
80 accomplish this
In the first race Billy Donohue, on Strathspey drew
The finish rather fine with Duplex, these two being the
only starters, but Srathspeys victory was an easy
one
Tie run for the Hopeful Stakes would have been close
md exciting but that Mr.. Pincus left half the young
sers in the race no chance by the running start which
he gave 10 Richmond and Theodore Mclaughlin wins
more races the start than any other Jockey lie Is
always the alert, and almost invariably his horse
at full speed when tho flag falls, while other jockeys
are stupidity staring at the starter instead oil getting
their mounts in motion. Then, too, he pushes MS
efforts and never letting rival play trick or steal
march him If other stables were as well served as
he the Dryers America need not look with de-
sparing envy at the Archers, Cannons foruhahs ana
Woods Of Engand
Thanks to the bounty of Mr.. Pincus Richmond won
the Hope!ul Stakes though hard pushed by Exile at
the finish Wanda did not like the mud and seemed
bound up in the homestretch. That Richmond was
really the best animal in the race Is not lkely'

Is hard to find Miss WoodfordEsoon put Aranza in the
sulks by taking the lead from her, and the cross
grained creature would struggle no more.
Eolist was comparatively overlooked in the betting
on the Long Branch Handicap, as he had appeared
only once before this year, when he made sorry
show against Hartford and George Kinney in the
Jockey Club Handicap at Jerome Park. Bnt ne was
not fit then. On last years running he was III !he
handicap on generous terms, anc he won easily.
