uulJorsey Central ferries it thofootof Cort
landt and Llbortyfitrootfl last opening about 7
o'clock saw probably tho most dcmornllzod
crowd that evor vlsltod tho races. Korybody
looked downcast, and was on his or lior war

and who nskod anxiously how nuch nnd ouch a

generally snubbod, or. nt boat, rocolred an un
satisfactory rotly.
Tho cause of all this was tho astonishing way
In vhlch tiro euppoBod suro things wero. ono
after tho othor, bowled ovor durlugtho sultry
afternoon. Dnckors of horses on public form
novo rarely met with such facer As ouo
clever bottor remarked, nftor Knloolnh landed
tho first raco with 12 to 1 ngnlnst lior, " I can't
do anything hero but lose. I played that inaro
towln $5 000 tho otlior day. and sho couldn't
run a yard. To-day I play something olso, and
ho boats mo out of tho monoy." At first glnnco
thsro woro many apparently oasy soloctlons on
tho programme, but as favorlto aftor fnorlto
vent down tlio plungors crow sick nt honrt.
and finally ault tho nnmo when thoy woro bin
losora on tho doy. Tho only favorltoa to ronch
fcomo were Flronzl nnd WcBtmorelnnd. and
they woro not .ory hoavlly bnckod.
Tho greatest surpriso was furnlshod by tho
dofoat of MoClollan A Ikmch's Iladgo by Cant,
Earn Brown's colt Defaulter In tho Newark
Btakos. at a mllo. Hero was considered a
moral cortalnty. and tens of thousands of dol
lars woro enculfod. Badge was a Bonsattonol
two-year-old. IIo bent a crack field of old
tiorsos In a throo-quartor dash at Bhoepehcad
Day Inst Bummor, running tho dlstnnco In 1 :14,
and on other occasions demonstrated that ho
trai dangorous In any company. IIo was brod
is Mr. AuHUBt Belmont, who hna always tnkon

In tho Wost at a mllo or under, and won almost
eTorr race In which ho startod. After beating
o Hold of cracks at Chicago. Mr. MoClcllan tele
praphed tho New York bonkor that Badge was
tho fastest horBO ho had over trained. Tho
colt camo to'.Snratoga and won tho only tlmo
H to faood tho starter, with tho greatest of oaso.
H "Whon It was announced that Badge would
B competo In tho Nowork Stokos ovorybody
Bj thought that tho rnca was as good as o or. Tho
H colt arrived at Monmouth on Sunday.
Whon tho entrlos for thoKewark woro posted
H evorybody went to tho bank and drew money

H eolflflh. tho knowing ones told their boat friends
about tho fiying colt, saying: "Give me (25
and I'll make eomo money for you. I'vo cot
an olr-tlght nt Monmouth." Tho telograoh
I operators bod scarcely opened tho ofilco nt
J Monmouth Park boforo they wero Ooodod with
telegrams from Saratoga reading thus: " Don't
lot Budge run loos. Play him for all you ham
Pat a hundred each way for mo." Evon staid
Jimmy MoLaughlln. who bets but onco or
twlco a year, had tho Badco fover, and tele
graphed a friend to play Badge for him 1 100 oach
5 ay. Tho talent could soo nothing In it but
cOlellnn's plain-looking youngster, nnd would
have naught to do with George Oystor, De
faulter. Cascade. Kaleidoscope, Now or Novor,
or Snowdrop, and tho outcomo was that 0 to 4
on was the ruling flguro whon tho call to post
fesounded. Tho story of tho raco Is n short,
tut to thousands not toothsomo ono. Badge
ooked a winner all ovor whon tho upper turn
was reachod, and tho wholo grand stand was
alive with delicious anticipation. Tho womon
munohod curamola nnd said: "M m. I know
i ho'd win," and tho men smiled nnd thought
how clever they woro to boat tho bookmakers.
, As tho horses straightened out In tbo run
j homo a rodjnekot, topped by n bluo cap, comes
through on tho outsldo, and in a moment
eomobody shouts, "Dofautor coming llko a
whirlwind I" A moment ol sllenco follows this
announcement. Suddenly Lowis raises his
whip, and as it cracks against the glossy sidos
of tbe air-tight a howl of nnguish burst forth
and tho wall. "Bndgo is bontonl" went up.
Btoodily the Pittsburgh roprosontatlvo drow
away, and, as ho crossod tho lino a length and
a half bef oro Badge.tho stlUnoas was impressive.
Thsro was not a cheer for the wlnnor, not ono
solitary shout of triumph from sonio lucky
backer. U&dgo's defeat wns not surprising.
Tbo colt ran a good raco. Tho surprise was
the forward running of Defaulter, a colt that
ran In and won a selling raco for threo-year-olds
loss than n week ago, at which tlmo no
body thought him worth more than hlsentored
pum. 12,000. The race wai n surprise to talont.
bookmakers, everybody alike. George Oyster
carried a groat deal of money for tho place.
The Seabrigtit Stakes for two-year-olds was
won by Mr. Wlthers's unnamed colt by Tom
Ochlltreo out of Cyclone, and as the all black
was in tho van on tho Chamois filly In tho extra
raco for two-yoar-olds. Mr. Withers hod on tho
Whole n vory pleasant day.
Mrs. Longtry, anxious to seo Mr. Caldwell
dospatch tbe youngsters on their joumoy, no
oompnnied by Fred Gedhurd and Oden liowlo,
Jr., rode to tho post In tho starter's wagon.
The presence of so much boauty kept the
povb at tho post much longer than usual.
Whether it was Mrs. Langtry's winning smiles
or Mr. Caldwell's lack of vigorous English,
with which he Is wont to address tho boys. Is
not known.

A. SJavace Hoc Fight In which One Animal

Paddy and Poto, two bulldogs, fought
early yostorday morning In a rosort at Mari
ner's Harbor, Stnten Island. Tho fight was
for (250 aside, and it was wltnosscd by six or
sovon dozen Bergon Point, Ellzaboth, nnd
Htatou Island sporting men. Poto Is a pure
white, hailing from Statou Island, nnd is tho
wlnnor of fourteen bard-fought battles. Pnddy
belongs to a Bergen Point sport, and hna noor
been whlppod. With tho oxcoptlon ol a brown
BPOton his back ho Is entirely whlto. Koch
weighed 33 pounds. A veteran doiuhandlor
nnd cock figutor from Port Richmond handled
Poto, while n well-known Borgon Point youth
bandied Faddy.
Tho bnttlo lastod 1 hour and 33 minutes.
During tho first half hour Poto was the favor
ite, and tho btaten Islanders bet ten to six
that ho woula win. Tho Jorsoymen Bald little,
but quietly accoptod all offors. For nioro than
nn hour Peto fought with unusual ferocity,
making attack aftor attack. Paddy, in tho
moon tlmo. ncted on tho defonslvo. nnd mot
his antagonist ntovery point. IIo nlso exhib
ited considerable Btratogy. and bo worrlod and
punished Poto thnt tho latter bocamo ex
hausted through his violent offorts nnd tbo
loss of blood. The Islanders thou endeavored
to hedgo their bots, and offors of ton to eight
on Paddy wero froely mado. When tbo doge
woro taken from tho pit Peto was almost dead.
Ills throat was terribly out, ono log was almost
useless, and tho aw of anothor was nlmost
chewed off. Paddy escapod without much
Eorious nuntshmont, nnd the reforeo awarded
tho victory to him. About (2,000 changed

To the Editor of The Sun Sir: Tho re

Warrington, discloses again what The bey haa so ably
and repeatedly Bet forth, viz., that steeple -hosing
should be aboUshsd, unless conducted properly, and as
exhibited at Cedarhurst, L. I. There are few serious ac.
cidents if any there, for tho Jump are very stiff; there
la a total aboUtlon of the time test, and only the very
cream of the welght'Careylnc thoroughbreds can sue.

Steepfechaslng la solely tor the purpose of Improrlng
tbe breed of hunters, and for no other nurpoKe. Can
anything then be more absurd, and at ttioaamo time
criminal, than to aee the weed oeldlngs outcasts
from the flat. Bent into the steeplechase to im
prove tbe breed of humors f Mr Morris 1 a true
sportsman, and I regret exceedingly that he has
himself been wtUin to encourage by his horse and his
riding the perpetuation ot a sport uuder conditions
which the honieof thlaclaseof racing (tngland) vould
never tolerate for an instant. Mr. Morrla racing part

Mr. Torrance lost bis In France because ths same errors

continue nnul tke course are laid out and the races
