A notable innovation which should do much to popularize harness racing Is to be introduced at the Grand Circuit trotting meeting at the Empire City track August 23-27, under the ausplcea of the American Trotting Horse Breeders' Club. Tne races will be started promptly at 2:20 p.

and the programme will be of such length that the last race of the day wtll he finished shortly after 5 tVelock, the same as at the running meetings. Trotting meetings In the past have been characterized by a particularly lengthy programme. Baikness has frequently fallen before the last race of the day was ended, and this has caused much inconvenience and complaint in New York, where day and night performances in racing are not appreciated. There has been a concrete reason for the lengthy programme. Grand Circuit meetings and others have been largely linanced by the sale of concessions ior poolsillng, bookmnking, the bar and refreshments.

In order that the buyers ot these privileges might obtain as much ot the public's money as possible, the racing programme was made long and the races were drawn out and delayed. James. Butr, president of the Trotting Horse Breeders' Club, said in speaking of the proposed innovation: "Everybody who follows the trotters has attended meetings where (he starter and the judges acted as If they had been requested by the management to hold the crowd as long aa daylight lasted, and I have known just this thing to be done on some of the leading tracks of the country. The people who had paid at the gate to see the races were the last ones to be considered. The poolseller, the barkeeper and the men who entered their horses supplied 75 per cent, of the gross receipts, and the races were managed to suit them.

We- have decided to change this and send the people home in time for their dinner." As showing the basis on which trotting meetings have sometimes been conducted an financial statement of the Philadelphia Driving Park Association is interesting. At meetings held in one year at the Point Breeze track, the gate receipts were and receipts from "privileges" were DR. JORDAN DIES- IN KANSAS CITY.
