Longstreet Runs In Good Form and Easily
Defeats Judge Morrow.


Defeats Judge Morrow.
GRAvEsEND RACE TRACK May 23-The
mighty Longstreet redeemed himself to-day
and he is once more occupying first place in
the affections OF the racing world. He
and Judge Morrow had short but decisive
tussle in the st. James Hotel stakes at even
weights 126 pounds, and Longstreet showed
his true form by running away from the
Brooklyn handicap winner and beating past
the winning post by a good length and a
half. The 5000 spectators threw their hats
in the air and cheered the great son of Long
fellow. Taral rode a superb race on the
winner, although he was favored at the end
by having a weakling in the younger Gov
ington on the Judge. The lad could not
help his mount and with a stronger tinisher
up Longstreet would have had much
harder passage.
The sport began with the defeat of Kings
ton, who was sent TO the post u little short
of work for bruising race. The brown
horse is now on edge, however, and it will
be good horse that beats him from now on
The weather was perfect. and the track in
fairly good condition. Its top dressing was
wet, put the bottom was perfectly solid,
and this fact explains Longstreet's good
race.
