Dempsey. I Saratoga, N. Y., August 14. Another crowd of I splendid proportions was in attendance at the Snra- I topi track this afternoon and was well rewarded, I for the racing was interesting and tin; finishes fair- I ly close, with the early action spirited in most I instances. The outstanding feature was the Ken- tucky Stakes at five and a half furlongs under I selling conditions. It was only fitting that Ken-I tucky owned racers should finish first and second. I .1. . Keenes Katenka, which previously has won I twice here, scored easily from Storm Nymph, with I Marie Odile the outstanding favorite in third place. I From a time standpoint the race did not amount to I much, as it was decidedly slow, hut the winner was under restraint through the last eighth. She was entered to be sold for ,500 and was bought by E. A. Iturke on his bid of ,500. The Kentucky Stakes was instituted in 1S70 and I its liistory, briefly summarized, is as follows: I Year.
