Entrance fees to races, as a rule, are not paid in cash, but charged up against the parties entering for the races; after which the award is made and the winners' accounts are settled by deduction. The unlucky ones fail to pay up and consequently keep adding to the large deficit which we have at present of entrance dues of $13,338.31, besides $2,273.73 that has previously been charged off to profit and loss. I submit a statement taken from the accounts of the races for twenty-two years (from 1881 to 1903 inclusive), showing the purses and added money paid out on races, the entrance fees received, and the added money.
