NEW YORK, June 21.-Suburban Day
set in hot, but before the first race was
run, the breeze from the land died out,
and just as the horses went to the post,
= cool breeze from the sea made the
heat a tride more beara0Ie, although it
was still too warm TO move about
The attendance, about 25,OOO was by
no means as gre2s as on Brooklyn
handicap day atFGravesend, but still
there was an uncomfortable crowd.
There VS. a long delay at the post,
and finally They're OFF, was heard;
and they were.
Ouly two minutes and six seconds
elapsed, aud then Taral drove Ramapo
in az the head Of the lot, with Banquet
hanging on Ike grim death TO Ris saddle
skirts. The crowd rushed TO the
jockeys stand, and Tara was carried
OfI 90 mis- room. He was out Of his
silks 10 few seconds, it seemed, and
then, before the race had been over ten
minutes, was out Of the grounds on his
way 70 Chicago 70 ride
DOMINO IN THE AMERICAN DERBY.
His face was wreathed In smiles, as he
had won the triple event, and % good
style.
A quarter before o'clock and the
twelve horses which were 20 contend for
the valuable prize were all az the post
a. the eud of the chute waiting for the
signal 20 be of. Several times they
broke away and one or two were left.
Once there was beautiful start spoiled
by DOgRett on Sir Walter, VINO did not
break with the rest. Then ST. Michael
began 10 cut up badly and would have
nothing TO do with the others, Kicking
aud piuu0iug about and trying 10 give
his contestants a taste OF his heels.
Bergen, his jockey, refused TO 90 where
be was sent Dy the starter. and In con-
-sluence was set down for the rest of the
lsetiug and iued $500. ComaDche was
lgly, TOO, aud Martin refused % do as
Rt&, told him, which cost him the
saub penalty as wSs meted out TO Ber-
gen. Rowe got down on the ground
add tried his luck FROM that point In
the second break be caught them all In
motion and sent them away in hne
start, with Kinglet in the lead, closely
followed by Henry Of Navarro, Pick
pocket, Banquet, Comanche, RamapO,
Sir Walter and others. Past the grand
stand thew flashed with Griffin urging
Kinglet 70 the utmost and with the
positions of the others bat slightly
changed. The first quarter was run in
25 seconds, and then kingleJ had a
length the best OF 10, while Banquet
With all Of his weight, was taken TO
second place 0y Simms, only half
lehgth in front of RamapO, on whom
Tara had a gentle pull.
THE Willy DUTCHNAN COULD SEE
then that Banquet was the horse he
had TO beat, for be was going we'll
and seemed 10 like the pace, hot as il
was. Half a length behind him was
Pickpocket, still a contender, and, for a
wonder, be was not Sulking. The three
year-Old, OF which so much was expect
ed, dropped back iRtO fifth place, King
Lee close behind and Sir Walter follow
ing, with sport absolutely last, Thomp-
son apparently not being able 20 make
him exert himself. The half mile post
was passed by the flying Einglet in
so l-5 seconds, but be was only three
parts OF length in front of
Banquet, and was already hang
ing out signals Of dis
tress. BaQuet was still half
length ahead Of the next horse, but it
was Pickpocket who had changed
places with RamaDo and looked ex-
ceedingly dangerous. Henry Of Navarro
was still fifth. but could not get any
nearer 70 the dying leaders. The Others
were changing places like the glasses
To q kaleidoscope and in the mix uu
Sport had got up into tenth place. AZ
the three-quarterS Banquet passed the
pole first 10 1:16 Is, leading Kiuglet
head, Simms having made uD his mind
TO LET OUT a LINK Or TWO.
hinglet was then two lengths ahead OF
PickpOCket, who was sill going strong
ly, be, 10 turn, Two lengths ahead Of
Navarro, Tara having let the three
year-o.d pass him at that point.
The time 70 the mile post was 1:41,
aud kinglet, under Grifin's strong urg-
ing, had got the drst place by head
from Banquet, but 10 was the last effort
Of badly tired horse Sport was be-
ginniPs,tO show some life and wssup in
the eighth place, running strongly and
very much in the contest Pickpocket
was still third, bur by only a head over
Henry OF Navarro, be 10 turn being a
neck ia front Of RamaDo, on whom
Taral was beginning TO ride
Then came the turn Into the stretch
aud "look at Sport was the cry, for
Thompson took him around next the
rail and be was cutting down the others
Ga most remarkable fashion. Tara
heard the thunder of Sports heels close
behind him, as did SImms on BANQUET.
and they woke up 20 the fact that the
rOgue was coming down the stretch
like a thunder bolt aRd was lighting
ike grim death for at least part of
the money. Kinglet quit Immediately
and took no further interest in.the con-
test. PickpOcket had had enough Of il,
TOO, and he dropped back without
murmur Sport was not alone in his
rush for the weSterner; King Lee was
coming along, too, with lots OF run left
in him, and it was apparent that the
finish would lie between RdmapO, Ban
quet, Sport and King Lee,
