DERBYS LARGEST CROWD LOUISVILLE, Ky., May 16.— Colonel Matt J. Winn said of the attendance: "I am agreeably surprised at the big crowd, and, while figures are not available at this time, I believe it is larger than last year and probably the largest crowd we have ever entertained. The club house crowd may be off some, but the general admission crowd is far above that of previous years. The beautiful weather of the last two days attracted thousands from a radius of a 100 miles, who had held back, fearing they might again experience a ducking. To say that I am pleased at such a perfect days sport is putting it mildly."
