BROTHER BAN DROPS DEAD.
BUT JOCKEY GARRISON ESCAPES UNHuRT
RACELAND HAS A wALKovER AND PRINCE
ROYAL WINS EASILY.

ROYAL WINS EASILY.
n. T. pulsfer best known to the world at large
~ the owner of that agile Tenny, lost userui
handicap horse yesterday in Brother Ban. VINO haa
often put money Mr. Pulsifer's purse In rat rolls
BIZ winning handicaps at good odds. Mr. puisiier anu
his friends went far to back him TO beat frince
ROYAL In the second race at Morris Park But TINS
was real without knowledge. Many racegoers ana

RoyaIs brilliant victories in 1885, when he won many
Important stakes and proved himself colt OF high
class by the weights that he took mp and the stnAhs
style in which he gained many OF his successes MI
Belmont has often said that Prince Royal Is one OF
the best colts that he bred Now the mere iac'
that Prince Royal had been beaten twice at this meet
lus once because he was far from it, and the second
line because neither colt Hamilton was at his
bests that any for supposDg that horses
fullv ten pounds below stake class can defeat colt
that was of the best hreeyearolds out In 1855
when that colt is fully hmseh' Certainly not Well
both Hamilton and Prince Royal were feeling well
yesterday and Prince Royal danced stately minuet,
and never hurried step lost his smooth, gliding
yrace of movement for yard while he made the field
look like a group of selling paters. 1t was asserted
emphatcaly in this column yesterday that the Rancho
del Paso Handicap would be mere gift to Prince
Royal on a dry track. And so 1t was. Moreover ii
would not have made the least difference IL Brother
Ban had not died of heart disease in the race.
Brother Ban was second choice In the betting, and
uas ridden by Garrison. He ran fairly until he
reached the top Of the homestretch when he began
To swerve and stagger, and half way down the slope
he fell dead Of heart disease. iarrison was not In
iured. Prother Ban a chestnut horse by King
Ban out Of War Reel. six years Of age lie had vol
no small number of handicaps, but never horse
Of stake class He may have been worth $1,000
Interest in the Suburban increases daily. Two can
didates out yesterayRaceland and Prince Royal
Fer it is likely that Mr.. Belmont will start both, II
he can get Jockey that suits MIN to ride Prince Royal
Hamilton viii ride Raceland, of course. The big
eeldng looking bigger and better than ever before
had walkover in the fifth the owners OF Come
to-raw and Admiral wisely concluding not to run
those horses against him, but Hamilton made the walk
over good sharp work for the suburban, and Raceand
came flying the homestretch at pace which few
thoroughDreds in the world could equal. lie looked
81 well and his tremendous stride ate up space so fast
that his admirers much encouraged as TO his
suburban chances, and such phrases as Tenny must
run better than he ran last year to beat that
horse were frequent Careful and conservative turf
opinion is settling into conviction that the Suburban
will be fought out by Raceand, Tenny and salvator,
with possible look-n for Longstreet on dry track
Ioantaka has some friends but most turfmen believe
the journey too long for him. Tenny Is certain
starter ANY rumors to the contrary investigation
proving be mere paddock gossip, and the others
named including Prince Royal (who may help Raceand
snttle) almost to TO the post 1t unlikely
now that Proctor Knott will for he was so badly
beaten at Latona saturday that his pro- poets are
hopeless. Montagu and Cassius will go and Stride
away may be there but the top-weghts hold these
three safe enough. With good day and good track
salvator, Tenny and Raceland ought TO make finish
that will cause all other suburban finishes. volcanic
as many of them have been, to seem dull and tame in
comparison.
The John A. Morris stable has wonderful troop of
two-year-olds, but Blthe is a that ought to be
kicked out of so brave comradeship He has won TWO
little and runs fast in private, but in pubic he
turns tail like an arrant sneak and wants to lie down
lie was the favorite odds for the first race, but
he ceased running suddenly when in the lead that
he might have stopped an eightday clock. Porter
Ashes Sir Rae is little better. but he was not ridden
h d1ns an se Sy wo TogoT With
outsider, second. II any one could buy the Whole
eight that for sa,4oo he would not be justified in
paying extraya-ant price.

place, second to Prince Royal in the Rancho del
faso Handicap while Prsther was third ~.
Garrison did some neat riding on the tayorite, Mr
miie Halt i'"HS way down the homestretcn he was
pocseted and the sky looked dark But he finally ally
only strong willed and stout hearted Jockey would
nave nav be bsheI So H. rspondne puckIy to his urgent call
finished stuFdily and won with something In nand.
Cleaning and Clarendon making deadh Tor
In august. 1882 at the opening meeting of Morris
Park Hamilton was IN such form that there was
rush TO back any horse ridden by him. lie has not been
so successful this year. and Ire is no longer so consplc
ousy the one pet jockey of the betting men. although
his skill is not diminished. seymour is well known as
speed, and little surprising 20 see
& and ! quoted against that colt in the Fort
SCHUYLER Stakes at a mile, with Hamilton up. The
favorte was Defaurer. who has been for a year or
more one Of the most expensive and disappointing
horses on the turf TO back. His trials marve but
his races are failures. Seymour defeated Bravo in
stubborn finish. while Filter third. seymour was
owned by Edmund Blunt. and entered to be sold
for 20 800 The Fort Schuyler a selling stake.
W G. DAILY was persistent bidder and got the colt for
81 200. so Seymour will be several times a
week hereafter.
