Added Convenience for Fans AQUEDUCT, L. I. N. Y., June 17. Patrons may have observed that a new system has been used in loading the horses into the starting gate at the Aqueduct-meeting. The horses do not start to enter the gate until it is officially post time, at which moment the pari-mutuel machines are locked and patrons now have the time it takes to load the horses to make their way from the windows to -a vantage point from which to see the races. The slight loss in time has been taken from the total of the wagering time between races.
