the Handicap.
New YORK, May 25.-Alternate sun and
rain were the conditions for to-days racing
Mt Gravesend. Seven races were run oil, and
the favorites did fairly well, although there
were two rank outsiders which won. Both
belonged to james Mclaughlin, and both
paid those who bet on them remarkably well.
In the opening race Weinberg got OIL well
in the lead and never was headed. and won
galloping from Factotum. McLaushiins colt
Potash got the same kind OF start in the
sixth race, and won all the way with scarcely
the semblance OF an effort.
The best contest OF the day was in the Sec
ond race at a mile and quarter. Prince
Klamath led on sufferance for awhile, and
then Pickpocket and Ramapo took the track,
leaving the others further and further behind
at each jump. In the stretch Ramapo assumed
command, and although it was a hard drive
for both to the finish, Ramapo won by three
parts of length, the others beaten OIL badly.
