stakes In an Exciting Contest.
MONMOUTH PARK, July 9.-The attend
ance here to-day was rather light. The
fifth race was divided and run in two
divisions, making in all seven events
that were decided. Three of these were
stakes for two-year- -olds, the third was
the Shrewsbury handicap, and then the
Lorillard stakes, which is the second
richest stake for three year-olds. MIR.
Haggin won the Lorillard stakes with
Salvador. He was ridden by Isaac Muir
ply, who had come on from Chicago es-
pecially for that purpose. This race
without doubt stamps Salvador as the
best three.year-old of the year. His
earnings already amount to $65, 900.
Mile and furlong-Belinda won in
1:57; Bigonette second, Burch third.
Three-fourths of almile-Cayuga won
in is; Cleaning second, Banquet
third.
Mile and half-Eurus won, Race
land second, Inverwick third; time 2 :35.
THE EVENT OF THE DAY.
Lorrillard stakes, $4,000, $1,000 to
first. Starters: Salvador, Favorable Colt,
Long Dance, Jubal, Longstreet, Sorrento,
Eric, Kern. The start was the worst OF
the season, Longstreet being fully a
dozen lengths behind. Sorrento was
the first to show, followed by Salvador
Favorable Colt and Eric. Sorrento went
right out and proceeded to make the
running. AS they swung into the home
| stretch the first time around he WAS half
a length before Salvador, who was a neck
in front of Long Dance. Coming down
to the stand, Sorrento had increased his
lead to two lengths, with Kern next, a
head before Salvador, with Long Dance
two lengths off, leading the pack. Going
around the lower turn the field closed on
Sorrento, and at the quarter post he was
but neck in the van, with Kern and
Salvador next. As they ran up the back
stretch they all punched beautifully.
As they neared the upper turn,
Longstreet, whom Garrison had
gradually worked out OF the pack, shot
out like an arrow and almost every body
expected him to go out and win easily.
AS they swuHg into the home stretch
Salvador and the Favorable Colt were
but half length apart, with Longstreet
third, length away. At the eighth
post Longstreet had the Favorable
Colt beaten, and he set sail
for Salvador, but as he had
to make up too much lost ground,
he could not get up to Salvador, who won
by two lengths in 2:371a. Longstreet
second, was four lengths in front of
Favordale Colt, third. Sorrento, Eric,
Jubal, Long Dance and Kern followed in
the order given. The half was made in
521a, and mile in AS.
