FASIG-TIPTON COMPANY FUTURE PLANS. Saratoga, N. Y., August 13. E. J. Trantor, president of the Fasig-Tipton Company, says that notwithstanding the flattering success which has attended their sales in the companys new headquarters at Saratoga, lie and his associates have learned a few lessons by which they hope to profit next year. "We shall make some important improvements before we offer any horses next year, he said. "One improvement which will interest the press representatives will be a thoroughly good press stand, whose occupants will be able to see all over the enclosure, and not only watch the horses in the ring, but the bidders at the ringside. Then we shall have a bungalow constructed, which will serve as a reading room and library for the convenience of our customers and our friends from the newspapers. Here will be found the stud books and other books of reference, besides other papers which devote especial attention to turf affairs. This will be a place where a man may sit, down to read for an hour or so when ho has time, or write letters, etc., as he sees fit. We are no longer feeling of our way in this venture, and now we shall go ahead and have just such a place as we want for next season."
