The Board Of Review Of the National Trot.
ting Association met again yesterday In Parlol
Hat the Murray Hill Hotel to consider the
many important cases that have been docketed
for hearing during the week.
There was full attendance Of the Board,
with President Johnston in the chair. whom bus
mess was begun at 1880 o'clock yesterday
morning.
By far the most important and interesting
case that came up for consideration or that
will DO heard during the week is that Of the
famous Temple Bar fraud at Cleveland. The
Temple Bar case was on the face Of II o bad
race. Tho owner Of Temple Bar. DR.. @. w.
Sales OF Morganfeld. Ky. the driver OF the
horse. q. w. Spears Of Minneapolis. Mimi.
and the horse were ruled on In the
race In question. which was trotted at
Cleveland in the latter part Of July.
Temple Bar was a great favoritc for
the race. Leicester won tho first two heats.
and then the judges became suspicious and
called Driver Spears into the stand. Ho was
told to drive to win. and that II he didn't he
would be punished. Judge Hanna kept his
glasses on the horses during the third hest
and says that he saw driver Spears pull the
horse Temple Bar of his feet After the third
heat. which was won BY Aline. Spears was
taken out of the sulky and driver
Gus Wilson was substituted. Wilson stepped
Temple Bar along and won the fourth. fifth.
and sixth heats in fast time. the fourth heat
being the fastest OF the race. Wilson asked.
for his own protection. to remain in the stand
between heats, so that he could not be ap-
preached by anybody. He said that he never
won race easier. and that in his opinionTemple
Bar could have trotted in 2:14 or better that day.
Owner Sales. who Is dentist at Morsanfeld. the
horse Temple Bar. and driver Spears were ruled
on by the Cleveland association. At the time OF
the race thcrc was no doubt, in the opinion Of
those present, that the race was fraudulent.
The name OF the well-known turfmnn John E
Madden Of Lexington. KY. was connected
with the race. and ever since then there have
been sinister rumors that Madden knew more
about the race than appeared on tho surface
At yesterdays hearing John 6. Wise OF
Virginia appeared for DR.. Sales. Mr.. Wise
made strong plea for his client urged DR..
Sales's innocence. and denouncedsthe Clevs-
land association for expelling him unheard.
He characterized the action OF the Cleveland
association as malicious Dr. Sales wanted the
