gust Is always big month in Saratoga, but the
indications are that from both numerical and
business point of view the ensuing few weeks
VIII see an almost unprecedented number of pleas
ure and health seekers here There has been
rapid increase in the number Of arrivals In the
last few days and the bookings for next week
ara unusually heavy. The vast majority OF the
newcomers Will remain throughout the racing por-
tion Of the and until after the floral
fete. The unparalleled hot weather OF the latter
part of June and almost the whole of July did
not contribute the prosperity of any Of the Adj
rondacks. but more favorable meteorological condi-
uons have since prevailed
II would seem as If about all the crack thorough
pred running horses in the country had reached
Saratoga. A week ago the equine census at Horse
haven reached three hundred There has
been perfect procession of racehorses Saratoga
ward in the last few days and the result Is the
ga thering Of between six and seven hundred racers
at the Saratoga Racing Associations training
quarters in Union-ave. Almost three hundred
more are expected before the close of the annual
running meeting which begins on Monday and
ends on August %. The presence here of many
horses Is TO a certain extent due TO the fact that
the Saratoga track is favored with unusually
large number OF open racing dates, and also that
the programme announced by the new manage
ment, under the direction OF William c. Whitney
Is one of rare excellence and exceedingly attrac-
tive The running park has been greatly enhanced
by series of needed improvements that will meet
with hearty appreciation of all patrons of the
track. Many more changes are contemplated. but
work will not be begun them until after the
present season.
