NEW YonK , Juno 20. The Suburban hand ! *
cap of 1693 , the tenth In the history of the
event , was a grovlous disappointment to the
to the turf-loving public. Lamplighter , the
Idol , who was looked upon ns a sure victor In
the great race , was made to fall from the
high pedestal upon which hohad boon placed
nnd the halo of victory which had gathered
obout him because of his numerous suc
cesses , were couiplotely dispelled. Ho was
vanquished strictly on his merits , as the race
was fairly run from beginning to end. There
i was no crowding or Jostling , as was the case
in the Brooklyn handicap. The field was
comparatively small , and every Jockey rode
to win In as fair a manner ai possible ,
txwlandcr , by Lowland Chief , dam Kost-
less , a horse that has had rather an erratic
career , won the race from cud to end. Ho
went out at the full of the Hag , sot the pace
to suit himself nnd won almost as ho pleased
, in the fast tlmo of SiOGJf. Tcrrlflor , Father
'Dill Daly's candidate , was second , throo-
quarters of a length away , whllo lamp
lighter , the oven money favorlto that shrewd
turfmen said couldn't lose , was third , four
lengths back.
Frcil T.ono Mail a n Killing.
Ix > wlandcr was at 10 to 1 against In the
betting , and all kinds of fancy prices could
jbo obtained about the chances of Tcrrifler.
.Tho race was worth J18.000 to the winner ,
$ n,000 to the second horse and $3,000 to the
.third. The winner Is owned bv Bookmaker
Fred Ixjwo , and , besides the rich stake , ho
netted many thousands of dollars lu bets by
the victory of his horso.
Suburban day this year opened nnd con
tinued bright and clear , although oppres
sively hot. The crowd began to arrive early ,
nnd when the bugle called the horses to the
post In the llrst race fully 20,000 persons
wcro on the grounds , and this Immcnso
throng was steadily augmented up to the
tlmo for the Suburban. ' The ilrst three
races could not bo run quleic cnouirh to suit
the crowd. The victories of Dobbins , Ameer
, nnd Lizzie created but meager enthusiasm ,
but the third race over , matters began to
.assume a more animated appearance. This
was especially true 'of the butting ring ,
which crowded and thronged as it hrfd
never been before , now became densely
packed. Everybody must have n bet on the
Suburban , and everybody seemed to bo
there.
Small Field to Tick.
Kaccland and Charade were early de
clared out of the race nnd the betting crowd ,
therefore , had nine horses from which to
filck the winner. The question was quickly
settled as fur as the betting ring was con
cerned , as to which or the thoroughbreds
would prove the victor. Lamplighter was
immediately and spontaneously installed an
oven money favorlto and so ho remained
throughout. Banquet was next in demand
nt fours , whllo Mars , Lowhuidor nnd Pcssara
were at tens. Twelves could bo obtained
nliout Dr. Hasbrouck nnd The Pepper , nnd
thirties und sixties about TciTilicr and the
Knglish horse Iddoslcigh. An immense
amount of nionny was wagered on the result
and most of this remained with the bookies ,
The race was sot for 4:05 : and promptly at
that tirao the horses were called-to the
post. Pcssara was the llrst to appear on
.tho track , uut immediately after him came
Torrillor , The Popper , Dr. Husbrouck and
Iddeslcih , whllo Ixiwlamler and Banquol
P quickly followed those. Lamplighter and
'Mars ' did not pass t.ho grand stand , but
cantered from their stables to the post.
'I.CMTliuulor Won All the Way.
It was 458 ; before the horses had been as
signed to positions for the grand handicap ,
After several breaks the Hag dropped to i
good start with Dr. Hasbrouck in front. Tin
others were almost in a line close behind
McDoimott immediately drove Lowlanderlr
'tho load , while Tcrrlflor and Iddcslolgh tool
second nnd third places respectively. ir )
Hasbrouck was fourth and Lamplighter laj
fifth In good position. The others wcro in c
bunch and this order was maintained till tin
middle of the back stretch , whore Low
la'udor and the other leaders drew nwaj
from Lamplighter and those composing tin
rear bunch. At the head of the back stretct
Iddoslcigh dropped back beaten , and Lamp
lighter and Banquet began to make tholi
run. Lowlander turned Into the homi
Btrotch three lengths before Tcrrifler am
pr. Hnsbroucit were neck and neck twi
lengths before Lamplighter.
The Hying leader never faltered am

The crowd when they reached the tracl
had a curious experience. The guards uni
ofllccrs stationed at the gates cried out th
warning : "Nocxltatthlsgatounlilaftor th
'Suburban. " Many did not like the idea o
being made prisoners for several hours , bu
there was nothing to do but submit. Insld
the enclosure It was seen that the fcnco sui
rounding the grounds were guarded by Pin
kcrtons. Inquiry elicited the fact thatthcs
extraordinary precautions were taken t
prevent the ( .iultcubur'rf race track peopl
mm the Fort I.co peoplu from getting any h
formation of the races at Shoopsncad , bu
subsequent events showed that this was nc
altogether the cause. It wus said later th
Jockey club was also lighting the Wester
Union company because of dissatisfactlo
over the amount of toll they were paying fo
the race news to the Western pool rooms
' .The Western Union ofilco was remoml froi
the course by order of the officials , and i
was therefore Impossible to got any now ;
from that track.
Confounded Coiifuilon ,
Tbo Western Union established an oflic
BOino distance away outside the track , bu
this could not bo reached on account of th
"no exit" rule. After the Suburban , who
egress was allowed , the wires that happonc
to pass over the Jociioy club's property wet
out. Communication was finally rostoroi
and then some person gave out uutrii
information us to the pluco of the liorst
Ju the Suburban. Tills made Lamnltehti

pranlio'l all over the country aud publlshc

of thn City Council.
The Barber asphalt repair claim for 1803 ,
amounting to $10,015.71 , glided into the
council chamber last evening under cover of
the appropriation ordinance. Mr. llowcll
discovered the Hem , and In making a motion
to strike It out ho m-cclultatod n discussion
that threatened , for n while , to conumio
until dawn. The gentleman from the
Seventh said the claim had been stricken
out two months ago , and It was beyond his
comprehension how the item slipped Into
the ordinance , which hail coma in with a
favorable report from the llnanco committee ,
lie considered the contract unjust nnd
arbitrary , the claim should not bo allowed ,
and | n the interests of the city the contract
abrogated.
Councllmcn Munro , Stcol , Jacobson and
Klsaascr took the sumo view ami wanted
the bill rejeotcd. They contended that the
contract was Illegally entered Into , would
novcr stand in court , nnd further that the
expense should Iw assessed against the
property abutting on the asphalt paved
streets.
A majority of the council were of n differ
ent mind nnd talked fast and furious ly for
the claim. Mr. Wheeler was particularly
talkative and ho had n typo-'vrlttcn abstract
of asphalt street repair proceedings , In-
luding Mr. Poppleton's opinion as to the le-
tnlity of the contract , lie contended that
ha work had been done nnd the city was
"ablo , nnd In his opinion the contract was
: gal. In tills ho was supported by eleven
thcrs.

To THE HoNOUAiir.n CITY CouNCir. OP Tin :
CITY OP OMAHA I heronith return without
my approval an ordinance to repeal ordinance

No. 3,330 , orderlnstho American Waterworks
company to take up and relocate cortaln lire
hydrants In the city of Omaha , for the reason
Hint I believe , In view of the controversy between -
twoon the city and the American Water Works
company as to the rl litof the city to relocate
fGO hydrants to the number of 100 where
nor. needed to Intormodloto polutR
where needed , no action heretofore taken by
the passage of ordinances rpiiulrin ? thin to bo
done should he moilllk'il or changed. It cannot
seriously atfeet the American Water Works
company to allow the ordinances referred to ,
to remain unrepcaled , so that the rights of
both parting , whatever they may bo , shall not
bu prejudiced , or In any manner alTected.
This course cannot seriously Injure the water
works , as the only ulTi.'Ct would bo to reduce
the amount of the July appropriation ordi
nance In favor of the water works company
to the extent of thu dllTurenco between
the prlco ot $10 andGO for the hydrants or-
deri'd to bo relocated. Tills would not
amount to a very larjo sum and would not
sorlously embarrass the water works com
pany. If It Is then duslroil by the water works
company to test the matter In court for the
purpose of determining whether the claim by
the city witli reference to the relocation ol
hydrants Is correct It can do so.

If the decision made by Justice Glbso :
yesterday morning In the case of Josephine
Smith , who was rbnrged with Inavlng the
Grand Central hplcUn May without giving
notice , and without jiaylng her board bill , Is
sustained by tho. higher courts , Nebraska
hotel keepers will experience a severe at
tack of that tired feeling.
It appears that , Mtss Smith left somoot
her b.tggago nt tfip , notol , and upon return
ing hero about n woojt ago proceeded to re
cover the same bV'replevin ' , much to the
disgust of thn Grand" Central's proprietors ,
who claim that Uipy cannot recover what
Miss Smith owes Ihom by replevin or other
wise.
In effect , according to the way the hotel
proprietors understand It , n hotel man has
no rights that thopitbllc Is bound to respect ;
that the keeper or a hotel or publlo house
has no lieu on the personal effects of any
guest who may choose to Jump his or her
board bill. If Justice Gibson's decision h
sustained the remarks of hotel men are
likely to bo Interesting , but will doubtless bo
unlit for publication.
