The pinkish stretch of hard bare earth was very fast It bade fair to carry ont its reputation of the fastest track in tho country. A "tlr was created by the appearance on the Secretary Mclntyre, who arrired on the 10 clock train.

The minute he reached his office, adjoining the cooling paddock, it was crowded by tho throng of applicants for lnfor-mation regarding the races. Trainers, owners and jockeys composed the motley group. Jore Dunn was a pasnenger on the same tialn witli the Hecretary.

It could be plainly seen that pleasure was the order of the day. Merry feminine laughter floated across the green plain from the vehicles, mingled with the hoarros guffaws of male escorts. STORY OF THE AFTERNOON, By 2 o'clock dense masses of people crowded the Grand Btand, filled the sward, lined up to the fence surrounding the track and, indeed, seemed to fill every available nook and comer.

Ohl what a race was the Handicap) Terra Cotta was the first to appear, with McLaughlin up. This dispelled all the rumors circulated by pessimists of the track. 'lho big floral horseshoe was brought from Secretary Mclntyre's office and placed in the Judgea' stand. Prince Royal now appeared on the track with Garrison up. After him sped Juggler, the Clifton candidate, and Andy McCarty waa astride Bob Vurey bet $1,000 thatPrince Royal would beat Hanover.

OOMIKO TO THE POBT." At the call of the trumpet Richmond was first to leave the paddock, with Prince Royal second, Elkwood third, Juggler fourth and Hanover Exile came at the head of tho stretch and Terra Cotta from his stable at the, far turn. Exile got the pole, Hanover the outside. Suddenly there waa a hoarse roar of "They're off 1" from the thousands of throats, and sure enough they were, but it proved to be only a breakaway. "tiiet'bx orr Again did a mighty shout ascend skyward at anolhcr false start, before the atarUr'a flag finally sent them off to win and lose thousands of solid ducats. In all the false starts the blsck and yellow of the Clifton candidate loomed to the front, but when tho flag went down such terriflp yell of excitement as went up is seldom heard in a life-Men and women stood np on their chairs and waved their handkerchiefs and bats as if mad.

Around the turn flew the racers, the Jockeys' coats forming a glittering mass of color, which was lost fn the swirl of great clouds of dust torn npby th impatient hoofs of the speeders.

The Brooklyn Handicap run on May 14, 1887. is famous in turf annals as a hotly contested struggle. Soventeen horses started, with Exile In the lead, who roon gavo way to Fenelou. ridden by li. Williams.

At tba seven-furlong post Exile and Fenelou dropped out and Dry Monopole, with Andy McCarthy up, took the lead, closely followed by Garrison on Blue, Wing, Hidalgo, ridden by Hamilton, a close third. In the last hundred yards It was neck and neck, but McCarthy put Dry Monopole to a tre- Sendous smirt and came under the wire a short ad in front of Blue Wing, who was the aame stance before Hidalgo. The tlmo was 3.07, one-half seoond better than any. previous record. Dry Monopole carried 100 lb.

On May 16, 1888, the traok was muddy after recent rains, and only eleven horses started. Tho Bard, carrying 126 lb. and ridden by W. Hayward, won a length from Hanover, rid. den by Jimmy McLaughlin.

Hanover and Saxony made the first half mile in 6 OH seconds, and tbs three-quarters in 1. 17M. Then Tbs Bard came to the front, and with Hanover, made the mile In 1.45M. They came down the stretch neok and neok, but in the last hundred yards the lour pounds heavier that Hanover carried told against him.

GEN. MDERSONA SyiCIDE. THE WELL-KNOWN RAILROAD MAN SHOOTS HIN8ELP IN A HOTEL.

(SrXCIAL TO TRE XVIXIXO WOBLD.1 Philadelphia, May 15. Gen. Adna Anderson, of New York, shot himself in the Lafayette Hotel, in this city this morning, The shot was almost instantly fatal, for when his door was brokon in by an cmployeo, who heard tho shot, the General was dead, He had been drinking heavily since he arrhed at the hotel, Sunday night. Gen. Anderson's office in this city was formerly at (ID Liberty street, but lately he has had desk room at 106 Broadway.

Gen. Andersou was one of the bqst-known railroad men in tbis country. He waa bom July 25, 1827, and entered railway aorvioe as a chaluman on the Now York. How Haven and Hartford Railroad twenty years later. Since that time ho has been conneoted with nearly every road in the country in various capacities, but chiefly as chief engineer and superintendent.

At the outbreak of tho recent war he was appointed Assistant Engineer and Chief of the Construction Corps of tho Army of the Potomac, and was subsequently made Chief Engineer and Superintendent of the Military Railways of the United States. In 1800 be was chosen Second Vice-President of the Northern Paciflo Railway Company, re-mainlng there until Jan, 1, 1888. Since that time ho nas been doing nothing, for a complication of ailments prevented his working. His home was in Sing Sing, N. Y.

LOOKS LIKE A COP RACE. Dnnrnvon's Letters Hald to Contain Nothing to Cause rierlous Trouble. Judging from tho good humor of the New York Yacht Club's Cup Committee and remarks dropped by three of them, thoro is very evidently nothing in tho last letters of Lord Dun-raven and the Royal Yacht Squadron which is unsatisfactory to tne committeemen who hate read them, and therefore likely to prevent the raco for the America Cup from taking place. Commodoro James D. Smith, Chairman of the Cup Committee, said to-day that he would present the letter he reocived by the Servia to the meeting of the Club to-morrow evening, when it will be read and discussed, and acted upon without any formal meeting of and report from the Committee, the majority of the members of which aro out of town and cannot be got together in the mean tlmo.

New York Yacht Club members who were seen to-day expressed tho belief that the Royal Yacht Squadron would accept the terms made in tho third deed of gift regarding the holding of the America Cup.

OEonoE, S. May 16. This afternoon brought the warmest weather that the Giant have cxporlencod since they cams down to Staten Island to play ball. Not a cloud was visible in tho skies, and the absence of these water-bearing fleeces gave Old Sol a chance to show what he waa made for. The game nas the third which the Giants have thus far played with the present Cleveland Club, and tho fact that the "big una "had not )et succeeded in gaining a victory over their infant isitors in the two previous trials lent an additional interest to this contcsA.

The inauguration of the great racing season doubtless drew many of the cranks away from the National sport this afternoon, but a fair-sixnd crowd comfortably tilled the grand stand and the bleacherles. UOKE AS A MASCOT. Gore, his lameness being much improved and he having passed a favorable decision upon his fitness, resumed his position at centre field, and declared before the commencement of the game that though he might himself play poor ball, the Giants were suro winners; for said he: I'm that mascot the boys have been looking for." Jlm O'Rourke, too, prophesied victory, and swore that two safe hits ere certain to be his. And everybody waa tfnited In the opinion that it waa about time for the ohampa to win. two ENounn ron the babies.

Tho League babies are no slouches, but no sane man can believe they are In It with the Giants, and two atralght victories are surely enough for Iff eoniiU territoet to carry away with them. The New York management had a hard time again to-day deciding upon their batter', Kcefe and Ewlng were scored, but the former was not in shape. It was therefore an open question as to whether Hatflold or Ewing would do the twirling until the game was called, when Hatfield was decided upon and Ewing went behind the bat.

For eighty yards the ball screamed through the air on a line, and then, being apparently lifted by some unseen force, it took a slant upward, and, sailing over tbs head of Twitcholl, it went on the bound through the very gate where a year ago gayly dressed ballet girls were wont to prance.
