LONG DELAY AT THE POST
FAVoRITE BADLY RIDDEN BY
 SLOAN.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

NEW YORK, June 1S.-Tillo first and the great Ornament nowhere was the record of the Suburban of 1898. The favorite was badly beaten, chiefly be- cause the horses were kept a full hour at the post.
 When the bugle called the contenders to the post there was but little unoc- cupied space in the grand stand. on the roof or on the lawn. It was almost 4:S0 clock when the eleven candidates were in the hands of Starter Fitzgerald and then came a Wearisome wait. After several false starts finally all came down together and they were off on their journey exactly one hour after they had reached the starting point
 Tillo was quickest on his feet and for an instant his muzzle showed in front, but the willy Clayton took him back to fifth position. Royal Stag came next, followed V Havoc, Ogden, Don de Orc, Ornament and the others. They did not settle down to work until they had passed the grand stand and had reached the end of the first quarter, and 1t could easily be seen that the jockeys all had waiting orders.
 As the horses strengthened out on the backstretch Doggett sent Royal Stag up little nearer Ogden, and Peep O Day and Imp moved up too, so that as they passed the half mile pole in that order they were heads apart. TilIo was still in fifth place, attended by Don de Orc, Havoc and Ornament, but the latter seemed to be oVerpowered by the weight he was carrying. Ben Hol- laday. too, was in the rear, while the rest had long been hanging out signals of distress. The sole exception was Semper Ego, who was going well in the rear, but seemed to be pocketed
 As they neared the three-quarter pole Hamilton urged Ogden, and as they flashed past the mark he was a length to the good. Imp showed her head in front of Royal Stag, while Clayton moved Tillo into fourth place. Ornament was actually in last place and Sloan was driving for all he was worth. It was only a short distance home and there seemed to be no chance for him to win Foot by foot Orna- ment cut down the lead of the others, and when he had worked his way up to eighth place Sloan evidently saw it was useless and gave up a very badly ridden race
 It was but.a a short drive around the turn, and then their noses were in the stretch, with ogden a length in front Clayton, on TillO, had moved up into second place, crowding past Imp, who was about ready to stop. As they strengthened out for home little Naher, on Semper Ego, beganto thread his way through the maze of flying hoofs and almost before the others knew it he was overhauling them rapidly. There was but furlOng to go and ogden be- gan to waver. In few strides Tillo had the front rank and it could be seen that it was all over. He passed the wire half a length in front of Semper Ego. who had snatched the second place from ogden in the last few strides, through the good riding of Ma her. Don de Orc was a bad fourth and the others were beaten off Results:
