A Cowboy Camp Attacked by

NEW YoRK, June 1.-THE most re-
markable field of race horses that ever
contested in one race near New York, and
the most remarkable crowd that ever went
out OF New York to see such a race met
at the Sheepshead Bay track to day to see
the Suburban. Fifty thousand persons
were present. -Four long hours before
the races began, and six hours before the
great race was to be run off the crowd
began to leave New York. The sun kept
out of sig hit aud Sd the crush, which would
otherwise have been sitting, was not so
severely felt. and all these thousands bad
come down chiefly to see one rice-the
Suburban a mile and a quarter run.
When the bugle called the horses to the
pole Cassius was the first to appear, with
Salvador next. and the others struggled in
from all ways. At the parade in front of
the grand stand Salvador held the post of
honor and the Others followed in this
order; Strideaway, Fircnzi, Montague,
Longstreet, Cassius. Tenny, Prince Royal
and Raceland.
After two breaks Caldwell flashed his
red flag. A mighty roar arose from the
immense throng as they came bounding
down past the stand. Cassius was in
front and in the short distance had
already a length. Firenzi was running
second and the others followed in a close
bunch. Going around the first turn
Cassius still had a lead of a length from
Longstreet, who was a head before
Strideaway, Firenzi fourth. Prince Royal
fifth. Raceland sixth, Montague last.
Past the quarter they went at a terrific
pace with Cassius increasing his lead
steadily, while Longstreet kept second
place from StrIdeawa y, who kept his head
in front of Salvador, with the white and
blue of Jenny way in the rear. Now
Garrison began to nov up with Tenny
and as the blue and white began to move
through the mass of other oolors a great
shout went up from the stand. Murphy,
on Salvador, heard it and sent Saltwater
up in third place.
Coming down the back stretch Cassius
increased his pace, aud at one time had a
lead of four lengths. Longstreet still
held second place with a death like grip.
Salvatore yellow sleeves began to fash
at a faster pace now, and Garrison set
the pace for him with Tenny. At the
head of the stretch both were close on to
Cassius. The Beeveryick stable caudi-
date still held her lead of three lengths,
Salvador second, only a neck iu front OF
S~trideawsy. followed by Longstreet,
Tenuy and the others.
Now they were all ranged up for the
race home. Inch by inch Salvador
crawled upon the leading Cassius. Gar
rison was working desperately OF
Tenny, But the little horse couldn'
get up. Still Cassius holds hi
lead. "Cassius wins" madly shout th,
thousands as the last furlong pole il
reached. No, Salvador WINS" shouted
another faction, and then the gallanI
chestnut, under a desperate whipping
draws away. The wire is very near anc
Taral aud Murphy are riding for all they
know how. In the last jump Salvato
gets his head 10 front and wins by a neck
with Cassius a length and a half in from
Of Tenuy, ~Strideaway fourth. Ther
came Raceland, Firenzi, Prince Royal
Montague aud Longstreet. Time
