Onr facilities for covering th3 New Orleans meeting are oa a scale heretofore unparalleled in racing annals. Three weekB ago four of onr expert dockers were sent there, and since then they have been watching and timing horses in training there in their earl; morning trials. Last week the original set was re-enforced by an extra man sent from Bennings and another sent from Lakeside. To this force have been added two of onr regular handicappers. Oar preparations in other channels are on a much more extensive scale than heretofore have been" attempted, and the result mnst be an accuracy in forecasting the daily winners at the Crescent City Meeting that will transevnd even our brilliant record there last year. WE GOT OUR TRAINING IN THE WEST, As a further guarantee of success at New Orleans, wa call your attention to the fact that the Maxim and Gay Company is essentially a Western organiandtion, our track sharps, with oni exception, having won their spurs in the West. Besides this, the stockholders of the Maxim and Gay Company enjoy the intimate friendship of soven out of ten of the owners and trainers racing in Nnw Orleans, and the Company has access to information as to owners and trainers intentions there that it does not enjoy elsewhere to the same degree. Ever body conversant with the history of the Maxim and Gay Company knows that at New Orleans two years ago it scored the sensational success which made its name a household word among racing people. Last winter we returned to the Esene of our splendid efforts, rich in experience from our campaign on the eastern tracks. We sprung sensational surprise after surprise, beginning with Orla, which won at 15 to 1, and reached the meridian when Philma Paxton, 16 to 1, won, which we wired for a plunge to the limit of ovr 3,060 clients from Maine to California.
