ELATED.
VIII Provide Another Meeting at "a
Favorable Date.

The Indianapolis Racing Association will
be permanent. The liberal patronage of the
present meeting indicates that the people
of Indianapolis will support horse racing
as a recreation. and for their success the
directors are elated. 1t is conceded that
the meeting is a financial success. and the
directors intend to use whatever profit re-
suits in the establishment Of permanent
racing. They are already talking of giving
a fall meeting, at which an effort will be
made to attract the best horses by larger
purses. There is also discussion as to
whether it would not be best 10 not give
mixed meetings, but to hold a summer run
ming meeting and a fall harness meeting.
The reasons for this are that IL will be
easier 10 put on a running meeting in the
summer or late spring. and it will be a
bigger public attraction to have the har-
ness horses in the fall, when they are pass
ing from the East to the meetings at Gin
cinnati, Louisville. Terre Haute and Lex
ington. While there has been no formal
discussion, the directors are agreed that
their next step will be to provide another
bigger meeting at the most favorable date.
