NHVV TfOIlIC , May 31. H was n light
weight this t'mo In the mud , and-how the
" crowd cheered when Howard Mann galloped
homo , almost alone In the Drooklyn.handicap
at Oravesond this afternoon ,
The crowd was like that of the day the
long shot Diablo walked off with the stake ,
for tlicro wan scarcely an Inch of npaco In the
grandstand or on the lawn that wan not
occupied when the race Wan being run , and
hundreds of people had swarmed acrcea tha
irack , ankle deep In mud , to get a good
position In tlio Infield ,
THere was llttlo hope of n Inrso assemblage
In the early morning hours , for a heavy fog
hung over the land nnd drizzling rain was
falling al Intervals. H was the usual luck
of the Ilrooklyn Jockey club , as It has rarely
had a really good day and track Tor Its big
rnco. Toward noon , however , the rain ceased ,
the sun began to dissipate the tog and by
the time people were beginning to think of
Rtartlng for the race track It was a beauti
ful spring day. Then the trains began to
arrive at the track nnd by 2 o'clock there was
pretty fair evidence of A largo crowd. All
through the flrst and second races the people
Rwarmed Into the grounds and by the tlmo
the biiglo ( sounded for the horses to go to
the post there wcro fully 15,000 persons pres
ent.
'HANDSPRING A FAVORITE.
All tlio entries looked absolutely fit to
run for their lives , and Handspring seemed
the king of the track as ho pranced about.
Ho was undoubtedly the favorite. There
was'somo surprise at tlin appcaranco ot How
ard Mann , but ho had been sent Instead of
The Winner , as ho was a good mud horsa.
TUoy wcro at the , post but a few minutes nnd
made but one false break.
"AC 4-MlO the starter caught them In line ,
the harrier was raised , the red flag swished
through the air and the eleven thorough
breds wcro off on their Journey , at the end
of which $10,000 w > s hung up for the leaders.
"Skcet" Martin , always quick , was first away
and on Instant later Howard -Mann showed
In front. The Swain , however , soon took the
lead away from htm and half a length In
front act a pace down the stretch for the
first time. In tlio flrst few jumps Sltnms
brought Handspring up Into third place and
hdld him there a length behind Swain , ami
with a'head only separating him from Helmar ,
Lokl and Sir Walter. As the runners came
Ho the judgre * stand for the first tlmo they
scorned to gather speed with each jump nnd
the first quarter was completed In twenty-
flvo seconds , with The Swain still In front
by a half length , Howard Mann In second
place by a length. Handspring third , Delmar
fourth , Loltl fifth nnd the others close up.
CHANGE AT THE TURN.
Tliim came a change oo they turned , and
the boys ptendled their mounts for the effort
to bold their places In spite of the crowding
and pushing. Tlio turn was navigated In
-safety without any material' change In the
'
order , with the exception'of Volley , who did
not seem able to untrack himself and was
floundering In the deep mud. The furlong
' round the two turns was run In 12 % seconds ,
good tlmo for the going. As they straight
ened out for the long run up the back etrctcb.
SI in ma concluded that It wae time to get a
little nearer to tlic flying leaders and began
to urge Handspring a bIt , , The .net' result
WSB , to brltiR him up wlth'ttKa'shoHhead ot
Howard ( Mann , but- still The Swain was In
tha lead with no sign o&yiytrefs. '
Tlic halt mlle ] > olo'I\vaa.pt3sciMu ! that order
In BOVi seconds , excellent ? ' tlmo" ' considering
themudf and' ' with the exception'of. Volley
ctlll floundering' In the rear the general ap
pearance of things wan unchanged. It took
thirteen seconds'to go the next furlong and
In that.short , epace of tlmo there were many
changes. .Volley woke up considerably and
left lien Edcr and Jefferson to look after the
rear ranks , whllo Lake Shore nnd King Ar
thur began to move up as well , the leaders
still running as they hnd almost slnco they
i started. < As they ncared the- Quarter pest It
.could be seen that Slinms was doing a good
deal ot urging on Handspring , under tha In
fluence of which the big con of Hanover was
" pulling 'down the gap which separated him
.from the leaders , and It looked ns If he might
make them all run. They passed the three-
quarter mark In'1:1G : % , having put a rapid
furlong behind them , and with little chauga
i la position , although the distances were a
-llttlo different.
CAUSES A SURPRISE.
Then came a crack In the atmosphere and
before ? "ho Swain or-Handspring knew what
bad happened Howard Mann was a length In
front ot the Held. Lokl , too , had come up
with a ru , ° h Into the second place , a head
in front of Handspring , with , Delmar next , al
ready beginning to feel hU weight and the
rapid pace ot tha leaders. Sir Walter was In
flftli place and the others trailing.
Then came the run around the upper turn ,
, , In which Volley ate up space In an astonlsh-
, JiiE manner. With every jump The Swnia
was losing ground. The tlmo for'tho seven
iurlinis was 1:20 : , remarkably fast , and How-
erd'Mann 'even then looked unbeatable. Lokl
wan a couple of lengths behind , whllo H.ind-
spring seemed to have a lot of rein to spard
for the flnal dash through the stretch. Vol
ley was coming fast on the outi'ldo and cu-
tlug his rivals down ono by ono as ho went ,
and Sliercr was giving The Swain a bit : '
.gaff. They wore at the head ot the stretch
with n mile behind them In the fast time of
1:42' : ' ' , ! , ' a n'.I Howard Mann had not faltered.
INTO THE STRETCH.
Now'th'ey wcro fairly straightened out for
homo , arid the judges wijra In sljht. : Martin
bitched a little uneasily on Howard Mann , M
Uie was getting near to tha goal , and at the
liint furlong polo ho began driving a llttlo ,
' although'ho'was two lengths to the good.
JJut ho could hear tdiouts ot "Luko Shore"
vand "Volley" from the crowd nnd ho did not
cnro to take any clianccp , and dt'l ' not dare
lo look back , so ho kept his mount In motion ,
i dotennlnoJ not to lose when ho had but a
fihort distant to 0 , It was but a few
seconds more , however , and as the tlmern"
watches Bloppetl at 2OUi. : ho cent Howard
'Maim bast the post four lengths In front of
' Lake Shore , who was three lengths In front
'at Volley , who had run about a sixteenth of
a mlle further than any other horse In the
race. Lokl had dropped back , to fourth
plaoo-nncl Jefferson and The Swain com-
pcte-1 for last place.
' Ono remarkauo thing was Taral's absence
