FIGURES ON A PARLAY PROPOSITION. Had any person made a parlay, bet of one dollar on the six winners at Belmont Park yesterday afternoon it could not have been paid in gold, silver and currency by all of the bookmakers in the ring. While it is, of course, more or less idle to figure over the possibilities of a dollar so parlayed, these results are given for the benefit of those who may le curious enough to want to know them: At the opening price parlayed would have brought ,150,840; at the highest odds the total would have figured 03,711,000 and at the closing odds it would have been 9,001,475.
