1t Was Sport for the Crowd, but
Death to the Poor
Horses.

NEW YORK. June 23.-The attendance
was very large at Sheepshead Bay to-day
for the weather and the card. Everybody
seemed tired in both the stands and bet
lingering. In the Foam stakes Guta
Percha was an odds on favorite, but did
not win. The Coon got his nose in front
at the critical period. The others were
beaten off. Clifford declined the issue with
Stone Nell in the opening race and the
Dryer Splinter won as be chose from a
poor lot. Melody looked a winner all over
in the third, but Deception came fast in
the last eighth and nipped her on the post
at good odds. The Coney Island handicap
was the medium Of much betting, SirroccO
having a shade the better of Armitage.
Hurlingham and Prig, but the three fin
ished in that order. Roche had no diff
Guilty whatever in winning his race from
Herald aud Spread Eagle. The sixth race
for selling platers was an easy victory for
Lord Harry. The steeplechase over the
full course was comedy of errors, for one
after another bolted until finally only
three were able TO do anything. General
Allen ran first nearly all the way, winning
by a good length.
