NOT IN THE PRESENCE OF LADIES.
What Alderman Casey Says he Said and Did

Alderman Philip Casey OF the Tenth Ward

threats against the secretary OF the as-
sociation. that he did not use any
offensive language in the presence OF ladies.
because there were no ladies there. On
Wednesday, he said. in the race between La
Gloria and r. B. SpraRue, he and a majority OF
favor OF l.. B. SpraRue was unfair. and after
the race he went over to the judges to remon-
strate with thom. While arguing that La Gloria
had been fouled by l.. Is. SprQgue JAS. McGownn

Alderman admits that he then became excited.

because he vicwod the latter as an intruder:
On Friday he met MCGOWAN at the track and
asked him his reason for interfering the day
before. and having learned that McGowan had
made some remarks In his absence that were
to retract them. MCGOWAN became boisterous,
said that he had nothing to take back. and
called for policeman to arrest Casey.
This ended the matter, added the Alder
