of Their Horses,


 New York, June 2.-Alexander Shields five year old Medler-E Indigo gelding, Go Between, carrying 116 pounds and third choice in the betting at to 1, won the $2o.oOO Suburban handicap to-day before one of the great est crowds that ever witnessed the event at the Sheepshead Bay course of the Coney Island Jockey club Go Be- tween was but short head in front of F. R. Hitchcock's four year old Ham burg colt, Dandelion which was equal favorite in the betting with Cairngorm at three to one Colonial Girl, backed down from 20 to to 15 to 1, was third, three lengths behind the first two horses and the same distance in front of the nine others in what was conceded to be probably the worst field that ever started in the turf classic. The finish of the race was terrific drive, Go Between catching Dandelion at the sixteenth pole in the stretch and fight ing 1t out head and head to the wire. Shaw on the winner put up masterly ride, while Miller on Dandelion got every ounce of strength out of his mount. AS the two leaders rushed to the judges stand, both jockeys flashing the ribs of their horses into great foam ing welts, the thirty thousad or more racing enthusiasts at the course rose to their feet and wildly shouted encour- agement to jockeys and horses alike.
 The race was started shortly after 4 o'clock just as 6 heavy fog began to creep in from the sea and on the back stretch the horses could be seen but dimly. There was a delay of ten min utes at the post due to the bad be- havfor of Proper and Colonial Girl, marring what otherwise might have been at least a fair start for all
 Sweeping into the stretch Dandelion was in front leading by a length. The thousands who had played the favorite were shouting with the surety of vic tory. Cederstrome was rapidly falling out of the race, but Cairngorm, Dolly Spanker, and Tokalon, the latter the winner of the Brooklyn handicap, were yet to be reckoned with. And behind these was Go Between with Shaw sit- ting still in the saddle. The gelding's well known stretch running qualities were well known to the racegoers. Once the horse had strengthened out for the finish. Shaw let his mount have his head and great cry went up from the spectators. In a few jumps Go Between had passed every horse in the field but the fast flying Dandelion. Then the red and black jacket of Shaw tshowed beside the Hitchcock green on Hitler and the shout Co Between wing was taken up from one end of the crowded stands to the other. The drive between the two was a furious one, but Go Between running straight and true was going away at the end.
 Colonial Girl dropped into third place from nowhere. The others finished in the following order; Agile, Tokalon, Proper, Dolly Spanker, Kuroki, Cairn- gorm, Astronomer, Cederstrom and Oxford. Agile wass added by w. Harry Brown, and Kuroki by James R. Keene. Oliver Cromwell was with drawn.
 The winner of to-day's Suburban was little more than selling platter two years ago when he was bought by AL exander Shields. Under careful hand ling, however, he has developed into probably the best handicap horse in training over a distance of ground. He had won four straight races, over dry and muddy tracks previous to to- days start. Always 8 slow beginner he invariably is running over his horse at the finish of mile. His chances in to- days race were fancied by some astute horsemen and he was heavily played, especially in the place and show posi- tion9
 Dandelion has been an unfortunate horse this year. He was beaten bVt a length in the Metropolitan handicap, a neck in the Brooklyn handicap and 8 head in the Suburban to-day, taking
