ROWE IN POOR FORM.
Starting At Gravesend Yesterday Was Of
the Worst Character.

the Worst Character
NEW YORK, May 23-Rowe was in one of his
worst moods, and the starting was worse than
ON any previous day The poorest piece of work
was in the third race, and he probably never got
such hooting and Kissing before in his life.
There were but six horses in this race, and all
but one were old campaigners.
lie saw five of them OF together but he did
not see the favorite, Prig, standing still and
dropped his flag 1t was bad blunder, and
Rowe did not add TO the good feeling of every
body by throwing his flag down in disgust Sull-
ross took the lead i'll the stretch after indulging
Shadow for awhile and won easily, while Emin
Bey got up in time TO beat Shadow.
I. w. boswell sprang a surprise on the talent
in the fifth race with the two-year-old flly Me-
linda, and she simply played with the others
and won away of Nineyeh was second and the
favorite. Mosquito, was never in the contest
