and Eon the Handicap.

ana EOn the Handicap.
NORRIS PARK. N. Y, June 6.-Twenty
thousand or more persons pushed and jostled
each other here to-day in an endeavor to
get the best of the odds. and they were
treated to some first-class sport and dead
heat between three horses. The weather
was not very promising at first, but as the
afternoon wore on the sun came out bright
and strong, and livened things up wonder
fully, and the track was like chain light
ming. Tho two first events on the cards were
the great Eclipse stakes for 2-year-olds and
the New York Jockey Club handicap for
s year-olds aud upward. The former was
won by Marcus Daly's colt Tammany. an
outsider in the betting. while Osric, Dagon-
cite and Hellgate were close together at the
finish, and the judges conld not separate
them, ana called it a dead heat. The
stakes were worth to the winner about
S33,500.
THE HANDICAP.
The handicap also resulted in the success
of an outsider in the betting Eon at seven
to one took the lead in the stretch and won
in very fast time. The favorite, Tristan,
was shockingly ridden by Garrison or he
would have been much closer up. Tourna-
ment made his third appearance in this
race and showed plainly that he is getting
back to his old form. The other races were
all won by the favorites and the talent went
home satisfied.
