PUBLISH TEE TESTIMONY.

I What might, perhaps, be appropriately termed
the hackwater OF the Edwin Forrest case, in which
vigorous action Wis taken BY the Board Of Review
at Its recent meeting in this city, is beginning to b
felt. The drivers suspended for participation in
/ the frauds which pcrmeased the race from begin
ming to end, werc four IN number, and among
| them was s'Jack'' Bowen, :pf Boston, who was
also the only dne of The suspGnded dnlrtetts NOT
present at tho Board meeting in Chicago. Mr..
| Bowen Is likewise tho only one Of the party who
has seen fit to make any remarks concerning the
| Boards decision. His explanatory and orucular
| remarks are reported as follows in the Boston
Herald: +

It is quite safe to assume that il the Boston
driver had been In Chicago and reviewed the tcs-
timony on which he was convicted .and punished
his exceedingly cheeky criticism would never have
been nlade. Without having any positive infor-
nation on the subject The TRIBUNE is decidedly
of the opinion that, If Bowen wishes that testimony
made public, he will be accommodated to the full
est extent. It is fact, not unknown to tha gen
cral pubic, that the proceedings in the 2e4
at Utica were given away In the most comprehen-
stve manner by driver who took part in them.
Dy this time Bowen has probably oeen apprised Of
that fact, but when his statement was made to the
Herald man he had not. The truth Of the matter
both on.iiy and IN the shape Of aflidavin, tie
evidence OF tho man who '4save away
the job was read By the Board In executive
inc, and the explosions and suspensions
followed. rs matter Of course: After these had
been decided upon, three OF the suspended drivers
were taken quietly aside, and asked whetherf they
wanted that evidence published in the Chicago
daily papers. With startling unaaimity they ex-
pressed themselves aa not only willing but exceed
i1gly anxious to let the matter drop. Publicity
was the last thing they were after, and oblivion
their sole object 1t was IN consequences OF this |
