ANOTHER BIG CROWD AT JUAREZ RACING. El Paso, Texas, December 1. Today was Ladies Day, the first one of the meeting and they accepted the hospitality of the association by coming out to the course in numbers. The crowd on hand today almost equalled the one of yesterday, which, manager Winn stated, was the second largest seen at the track since the inauguration of racing at Juarez. Every doubt about tiie mutuels being a success was dispelled by the patronage they received here on the opening day and today. The mutucl force was increased today to handle the large volume of business it will have to take care of from now on. In the future entries for Tuesdays races will close on Sunday. Heretofore they were closed on Mondays. Commauretta was bid up from to 00 by J. M. Shilling and bought in by K. Spence. For rough riding in the fourth race yesterday, jockey Acton was suspended for five days by the stewards. Hugh McCarren arrived from Tijuana with seven head and W.E. Kline and R. Pool came in from "Waco, Texas, with five.
