ST. LOUIS RACING PRODUCT. Considered as a racing field, St. Louis produced for owners a handsome increase this year over 1902, the comparative figures being: 1902. 1903 St. Louis Fair Grounds, 2 meetings 15,700 09,355 Delmar Park, 2 meetings... 171,525 185,420 Kinloch Park, 2 meetings.. 39,230 82,910 3426,455 77,685 ; Only one meeting in 1902. i The slight falling off at the Fair Grounds is accounted for almost wholly by the difference in value of the St. Louis Derby of this year as compared with that of 1902. Delmar showed a compensating increase. Last year but one meeting was given at Kinloch Park as against two this year, a circumstance accounting - for the gain of this year over 1902. With the Worlds Fair to stimulate offerings St. Louis will, no doubt, go far over the half million mark in 1904. On the whole, St. Louis does well by ovners and in time will do much better. Last year Barney Schreiber was away off in the lead of winning owners at St. Louis, but this year disease deprived him of the services of many of his most relied upon horses, and under the circumstances he did well this year to finish second to T. P. Hayes, a reversal position. Last year Mr. Hayes was second with 5,665 to his credit, while in 1903 he figures as the leader with the desirable total of 1,515. Outside of the two leaders the stables of W. W. Elliott, J. K. Hughes, J. S. Bratton, J. F. Daniels and Co., Louis Lemp and Co., Wm. Mulkey and W. W. Darden and Co. made profitable returns to their owners. The tale of owners who won ,000 or more is as follows: Owners. Amt. Owners. Amt. T. P. Hayes ....1,515 W. Gerst ,8S5 B.

The Derby winner Claude was second. The veterans, -Hilee and Frank Bell, and the younger racers Jordan, Bas dOr, Sylvia Talbot and Little Scout more than paid their way for the season.
