out, and just as the horses went to the
post 4 cool breeze from the sea made the
heat triae more Dearable, although 1t
was still too warm to move about. The
attendance, about 5000. was by no
means as great lis on Brooklyn handicap

an uncomfortable crowd.
There was long delay at the post.
and finally They're OFF, was heard,
and they were. Only two minutes and
six seconds elapsed. and then Taral
drove Ramapo in at the head of the lot,
with Banquet hanging on like grim
death to lis saddle skirts. The crowd
rushed to the jockeys stand, and Taral
was carried off to his room. He was
out of his silks in few seconds, it
seemed. and then. before the race had
been over ten minutes, was out of the
grounds on his way to Chicago to ride
Domino in the American Derby. His
face was wreathed in smiles, as he lad
won the triple event and in good style.

TASTE OF HIS HEELS.
Bergen, his JOCKEY, refused to go
where he was sent by the starter. and
in consequence was set down for the
rest of the meeting and fined 5000.
Comanche was ugly, too, and Martin
refused TO do as Rowe told MIN, which
cost him the same penalty as was meted
out to Bergen. Rowe got down on the
ground and tried his luck from that
point. In the second break he caught
them all in motion and sent them away
in a fine start. with kiuglet in the lead,
closely followed by Henry of Navarro.

SIGNALS OF DISTRESS.
Banquet was still half length ahead
of the next horse, but it was Pickpocket
who had changed places with Rampo,
and looked exceedingly dangerous.
Henry of Navarro was still fifth. but

leaders. The others were changing
