1 I f j - 9 : :; S 0 5 0 0 r II - RACING STATISTICS OF 1905 8,011 RACES PRODUCE VAST SUM OF ,001,507 FOR 1,706 OWNERS. Los3 to Horsemen Through- Closing of Illinois . and Missouri Tracks About ,000,000 Showing Is, Nevertheless, Surprising. In the form of stakes and purses, racing on the principal tracks of the United States and Canada those covered by the charts in Dally Racing Form produced to horsemen during the year 1005 the vast sum of ,001,557. In the same territory dur-iug the year 1004 the product was ,771,689. Thus a decrease of only 73,332 is shown. Tills statement of fact will undoubtedly prove surprising to the enemies of racing. But tills 73,332 must not be counted as the actual loss to horsemen. They are out of pocket the amount which would have been distributed at. the Chicago and St. Louis tracks, had there been no interference with plans, less so much as was made up by the necessary increase In the number uf days at Latonia, Louisville, Nashville, Memphis aud on the northern circuit. That loss, taking the statistics of 1904 as a basis for calculation, was approximately 41,494. Witii Washington Park closed for all but three days In 1904, the total distribution at the Chicago tracks was 22,294. Last year it was nil. The tracks at St. Louis and Kansas City produced 38,915 in 1904. Last year they distributed 08,-1S2 before the antl-bettlng law became effective. So a loss of ,193,034 is shown In Illinois and Missouri. Of this sum 51,540 was made up by an ln crease of 63,985 at Latonia, 4,885 at Louisville. J47,790 at Memphlsi9,0e0 at Nashville. .XSC ,. A aFFort Erfeaiidv21J83at Detroit" and. Windsor." At the New York tracks there was an increase of 42,430 over 1904; Pimllco produced 7,465 more; Beuuings showed an Increase of ,985; the Providence meeting was an addition with a distribution of 3,6S0; but these, increases were natural and would have been the same had there been no inter-, ference with racing in the west. The distribution at the minor tracks, those in Texas, at Atlanta, Birmingham, Denver, Seattle. Sacramento, Petaluma, etc., was equivalent to at least 50,000, so It cau be said with safety that had there been racing for the full season In Chl- cago aud at the Missouri tracks, the distribution to horsemen would have been in round numbers ,000,000. The following table shows the number of racing days allotted to each organization, the number "of races run aud the amount of money distributed at the track of each, making grand totals of 1,307 days of racing, 8,11 races run aud ,601,557 dls-t tributed: s . a 3 Organizations. 33. b ? f Coney Island Jockey Club 30 180 74,479 Brooklvn Jockey Club 30 182 4lt,17.
