Saratoga, Aug. 1o.-There is one day OF the racing
season that the resident SaTatogians take especial in
terest in and that is when the Merchants Stakes are
run for. as the busiEeS men of the village contribute
the added money This was the day, and the scene
AT the track was brilliant and inspriting The stand
was fairly packed with people the great majority OF
whom were ladies', who even invaded tho reporters
quarters The weather was warm and partly cloudy,
and the track rendered somewhat heavy by
series of thunder showers before daybreak The Aer-
chants Stakes was necessarily the feature OF the day
and Montrose Hanover and ElkwoOd started for IT.
Tbclr appearance upon the track the signal for
round after round OF applause Hanover was like
wild horse, and was as fractions at the post as
two-vear old lie made the pace throughout. and
when he defeated Montrose in the easiest possible
manner there was scene OF wild excitement, for
there we're many present who had heard of but had
never seen the great Hanover. Last years winner
Ellwood was as fat a pig, and had enough at the
end of the first six fuIlongs. Kingston also had an
easy race against his only competitor, LaNina Belle
and as Murphy drew the finish very fine 1t appeared
to the unprofcssiona eye If the Dwyer champion
was TO be beaten and hyserlcai SHOUTS rent inc ar
as they crossed the line.
The dav opeued very disastrously for hackers by
the victory of yioante, with to l against her in
field of three which followed by second dis
aer in the succeeding race, when Duke OF Highlands
easily defeated the favorc. All the other races how
ever were captured by the heavily backed horses, with
one outsider getting the place, that honors were
easy
Following is a summary OF the seven races. from
which It will be seen that the oId-time favoritcs OF
the Dryers got to the front in good shape as was
