The day was perfect, fer, while for a tim e the clo.uds*obscured the rays of the sun. no .rain fell and the six events tvere run off on a fast Track. There was a cool breeze blow ing. The attendance was of vast proportions and ranged from 35.000 to 40,000 people. It is impossible to judge correctly the size of the crowd, but it was undoubtedly the great est out.oouriug of lovers of the sport that | has ever been at the beautiful course of the I Coney Island Jockey Club. Gold Heels ■ivas favorite for tho race at 3 to 1. He w a s backed by the major portion of the crowd and the books lost a large sum by his victory. Pentecost, which was backed from 7 to 1 to 5 to 1. also hurt the books in a financial sense, as the place play on him was remarkably strong.

The intermingling of colors, the kaleidoscope changes that took place during the race, all formed a series of pictures alike beautiful and interesting to the eye. The accommodations of the beautiful course were ta.xed as they were never before. Beautiful women were everywhere. Men from the plutotratic inillionairo down to the humble clerk out for a day's holiday mingled with the crowd. Packed like sardines in the grand stand was a vast crowd of human beings, money mad, so it seemed. Great Desire to Gamble. The desire to gamble is growing w ith !. great strides on the American public. It found a full outlet in the betting inclosure, j and the great wonder is where the immense ! sum that w a s bet on tho big race and the minor ones came from. Men fought tooth and nail to place their commissions -with the bookmakers. The scene in the betting ring was unparalleled. It was composed of a frenzied mob. only in tent on placing their money where they thought it would bring a return. Men stood insults and buffeting around in that space with no resentm ent, were trod upon—even trampled upon—and not a disturbance marred the whole proceedings. Over 150 bookmakers were on hand to ac commodate the speculatively inclined crowd, and they were unable' to handle all the jjjonoy that was forced upon them. A con s e r v a t i v e estim a te places the money that changed hands during the afternoon at over $l,:i00,000. It is further estim a ted that the victory of Gold Heels alone resulted in a distribution of at least $350,000.

(Special to the Eagle.) - \ Gcod Ground, L. 1., June 14—Coroner Nu gent held an Inquest to-day over the bodies of Dlmp Lawrence and Clarence Foster, and decided that they met their deaths by acci dental drowning, but the relatives of the dead girl and man declare that murder has been done and that Louis DIsbrow m u st be found and made to e.xplaln what he knows of the tragedy.

The coroner's position in the m a tter is ( quite peculiar, in view of his verdict of acci- ! dental drowning. The murder theory is given I much strength by the bloody condition of the i two bodies when they were found in Tiuaa j Bay this morning and the testimony given ! at the inquest by Anna Pearsall that Dis- I brow and Foster quarreled and fought in i Disbrow's room\ at Torncll's Hotel at 2:30 I cn the morning of the disappearance.

Mrs. Foster said that she felt certain her son was murdered and she, too, claimed , Disbrow had kept him drunk for two weeks. Disbrow is wanted here for other purposes than to explain what he knows of the Fos- tor-Lav.'i'eiice tragedy. Business men here hold chocks signed by him and they say the Richmond H ill bank or. which they were drawn has returned them as worthless. The checks have been cashed within the last wee's. Disbrow had told his friends he Intended to go to Europe and it is believed here that he had planned to leave. One thing is cer tain. the escapade that cost Foster and Dinip Lawrence their lives was planned some time before it vt'as realized. That fact Is made known by a letter written by Foster to Stewart Rogers of the Hampton Pines Club, saying that ho would be up that Monday night and asking that supper be preptared for three persons. Despite tho fact that there is no real sound basis for the belief that Foster and the girl were murdered, tho villagers here believe, with tho relatives of the dead, that there was foul play, .\ny\vay, they say Dis brow should be brought back here and forced to divulge his kno'vledge of the affair and to explain his strange actions a few hours after the disappearance and his quick de parture from Good Ground.

No less than thirty of the pleasant young women among our people have given up busi ness for the stronger claims of Cupid in this mating month of June. We are sorry to lose them, but they have our heany con gratulations as they begin their married life—and so do the lucky men. The places which they leave make vacancies which other smart and good looking girls will fill—and perhaps follow in their footsteps later on. ■ Just from Europe come some fine things for wedding gifts— they are having first showing in America here now. There are Pvoyal Bonn Vases—the most beautiful we ever had, and Teplitz ware in the old Viennese style, including Vases and Cabinet Pieces. And there is some beautiful and entirely new ware with a metallic, iri descent luster. It is particu larly rich in color and finely ornamented in some cases with figure painting. These from Rudolstadt, Thuringia— our own establishment. If you like to give exclusive as well as beautiful things, these new comers make fine opportunity. The new Fans are ready— prettiest Fans anybody ever had to give away. On one side is the finely colored picture of the jolliest, chubbiest little fellow that ever was. On the other side interesting bits of the Store are pictured. They are good, strong Fans, too. Ask for one. Coolest place in town—the Abraham and Straus Store. Coolest time to shop—in the forenoon.

And after you are through shopping, our Restaurant on the mezzanine floor is a delightful place to luncheon. A real bargain is news worth the telling. We have splen did news to-day. Don’t miss one bit of it. Interest in bicycling is boom ing again—queei how people let such a fine, healthful sport lie fallow for a year or two. But this Spring everybody is riding and everybody wants a new Wheel. A fine string of them here—and the least to pay.

The best plant of the kind we know of; the only one in the country on the premises of a big Store. We shall be glad to show you just how it works if you are interested—you will be wrapped up warmly, for the temperature is about that of Pike’s Peak. Furs actually improve in this storage plant— it is so near their natural con dition. Charges for storage are insignificant. A transformation has been going on in the Candy Store in the past few weeks—we are getting it into the spick-span shape that will make it the prettie.st, as well as the lowest priced Candy Store in Brook lyn.
