crowds oi the meeting to attend the racing
at the st. Asaph track this afternoon, both
special trains being crowded. The wind and

track, and 1t was In much better shape
than was expected, heavy but safe. At the
solicitation of the New York contingent the
club decided last night to postpone the rae
ing from Saturday until next Wednesday.
The club is doing far better financially
that it anticipated, and very reluctantly
consented to postpone. But IL is understood
that several politicians prominent In both
parties respectively urged the postponement.
