burban Handicap of 1898 was a most
grievous disappointment to the turf bet
ting public. Lamplighter. who was looked
upon as sure victor, was made to fall from
his high pedestal. He was vanquished
strictly on merits, as the race was fairly
run from beginning to end. Lowlander,
by Lowland Chief, dam Restless, won the
race from end to end. He set the pace
almost to suit himself, and won as he
pleased IN the fast time of 2:063, Terrifier
second. three-quartersa away, while Lamp
lighter was third, four lengths behind.
Lowlander was a 10 to l shot in the bet
ting, and all kinds of prices could be OBJ
tanned on Terrifier. Lamplighter was at
even money. The race was worth $4,000
to the winner, So, 600 to the second, and
$1,000 to the third.
The winner is owned by bookmaker
Fred Rowe, who beside the rich stake,
netted many thousands i'll bets.
The day opened oppressively hot, but
the weather did not keep the crowd away,
for fully 10000 people were on the grounds
when the first race was called, and people
Kept coming till the time set for the Su-
burban. The betting ring was most ami
mated place for everybody was anxious to
bet on the great event. Lamplighter at
even money was favorite. Banquet was
next in demand at four, while Mars,
Lowiander and Pessara were at tens.
Twelves could be obtained on DIR. Has
brouck and The Pepper, and sixties
about Territier and the English horse
lddesleigh. An immense amount was
wagered on the result, and most of it re-
manned with the bookles.
The race was set for 4:50 o'clock, and
after several breaks the flag dropped to a
good start, with DR.. Hasbrouck in the
lead and the others in line close behind.
Lowlander soon took the lead, with Terri
fer and Iddesleigh second and third.
Hasbrouck and Lamplighter followed,
the others being punched close behind.
In the middle of the backstretch Low
lander and the leaders drew away from
Lamplighter and the rear bunch. At the
head of the back Iddesleigh was beaten,
while Lamplighter and Banquet began to
make run. Lowlander turned into the
homestretch three lengths before Terri
fer and DR.. Hasbrouck, who were neck
and neck two lengths ahead of Lamp
lighter. The flying leader never faltered,
and passed under the wire a rather easy
winner. Territier secured second place
by four lengths from Lamplighter, who
beat Hasbrouck by head. Banquet,
Pepper, Mars, Iddeslegh and Pessara
finished in the order named.
Owing to the fight between the Sleeps
head Bay authorities with the Guttenburg
and Fort Lee people, and also the West
ern Union Company, no one was allowed
to leave the grounds till after the Sub
urban. and precautions were taken to
prevent information getting out, hence
the erroneous reports telegraphed over
the country during the afternoon.
