SARATOGA. Aug. 10.-The closing down OF the
races at Brighton Beach yesterday. which
leaves the Saratoga Association with a clear
neld for the rest OF the week, was the means
nj bringing ON a large delegation from New
York. although the crowd that came was not
uo to expectations. The programme for this
afternoon was o very poor one. and this may
have had something to do with II, although the
racing was nrst-class. 1t was the snme old
story with the favorites, as Poetess. who was q
prohibitlve choice at 1 to 2. was the only one
that won. Tod Sloan was again In evidence to-

UpephAR race was for maiden three-year-olds
and upward. and II looked easy for Laudeman.

never headed. winning In a Eallop by six

eight lengths. made too much use Of him. so
that when he came to the stretch he began to
tire. and came back to his Geld. Sloan then
came through with Frances Booker and won
easily By a length and q half from Great Neck.
