RESERVATIONS AT AURORA More Requests for Stalls Than Are Available — Railroad Arrangements From Chicago Completed. AURORA, 111., May 27.— Requests for stable reservation from horsemen in all parts of the country, have flooded the offices of the Aurora race track and Clifford R. Trimble, general manager of the Exposition Park Jockey Club, has sent out notices that no turfman should ship before barn allotments are confirmed. He said today that forty new stalls had been built, but will be able to accommodate only 750 thoroughbreds. The Aurora meeting begins June 4, and runs for twenty-one days. Arrangements were completed with railroad officials for special train service from Chicago to the Aurora course. There will be two specials daily, leaving the Union Station, over the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy railroad, at 12:15 and 12:45 oclock, each day and on Saturdays, three specials will operate, between the city and the race track. Trains will stop coming and goin at Western Avenue and Cicero stations. Passengers will be taken within a few feet of the grand stand, over a spur put in by the railroad company.
