MEET OPENS TODAY
At ELECTRIC PARK
Prospects Are Excellent for Fine
Racing at the Baltimore
Half-mile Track.
MUTUEL SYSTEM BETTING

Baltimore, Nd, May 2o-Electric Park.
the quaint little track which has been
the scene of many a well-contested race
VIII open today with a meeting of six
and possibly ten days. The prospects
are for the best racing ever seen at a
half-mile course. Plenty of horses of
good quality are in sight and there
should be big fields in every event. The
betting will be carried on under the
pari mutuel system. and there is con-
siderable curiosity to find out how the
system is going to work on the smaller
tracks. The experiment at Electric Park
may settle the status Of the half-mile
tracks throughout the country.
After the close at Electric Park there
is no racing in sight in this vicinity
until fall. At present it looks as IL the
Gentlemen's Driving Park and Prospect
Park would forego their usual spring
meeting. The owners of these tracks
do not believe they can make both ends
meet under the mutuel system Of bet
ting.
Everything possible has been done to
put the track in first-class condition for
the races, and six well-balanced events
are booked today, with the Inaugural
Handicap as the feature. This race will
bring several stars to the post. notable
among them being Sylvestris. Prince
Chap, and Deduction. The first race will
start At O'Clock.
