New York, June —Cudgei, ths 4-vear-old colt by Broomstick-Eugen- ia. Burch, owned by Commander J. K. L. Ross, a Canadian naval officer, and cleverly ridden by Jockey Lyke, won the Brooklyn Handicap, one mile and a furlong, over thc Queens County Jockey club's race track yesterday. The winner, which was the public fa- vorite, carried the top impost of 129 pounds past the judges a length ahcad of Andrew Miller's aged gel- ding Roamer, with John Sanford’s 5 year-old George Smith third, four lengths away. The time of the race 1:50 1 is just one second behind the track record for this distance, made by H. P. Whitney's Borrow in this cvent last year. The winning owner’'s part of the stake was $4,600. Bight horses made up the field, Roamer and Ticket being coupled as the Miller entry, the other one, Re. count, having been withdrawn, ag were Damrosch, Motor Cup and Corn sel, while H. P. Whitney added last year’s winner Borrow. They wera only threc minutes at the post and all got off well Roamer, as usual, prominent, and quickly raced Westy Hogan and Borrow, the leaders for over half mile, into submission, Cudgel was slow fo get going and raced in sixth position until turning into the stretch, where he shot past the other contenders and challenged the flying Roamer. The latter was crowded a bit on the rail in the streteh drive, but Cudgel, perfectly handled by Lyke, gained steadily and won by a length Schuttinger, who made a claim that Lyke rode his mount foo close to the rail, but the claim was not allowed. Both the winner and jockey were loudly cheered when they returned to the judges’ stand, the Canadian owner's victory being a very popular one. George Smith finished third, five lengths in front of Hollister, Which beat Hendrie a neck for fourth place, Westy Hogan finished sixth, fifteen lengths in front of Borrow, wilk Ticket trailing the field. 3 was always a rode Roamer,
