CHICAGO. May 25.-Edward C~orrigan and
his Chicago Racing Association met with
defeat and a reprimand before Judge
Blodgett in the application for an i~njunc<
ton restraining the Western Union Tele-
graph Company from charging 500 per day
for furnishing the association with news of
turf events at other cities, in order that
pools might be sold ON them. when other
associations are charged only $40. The
court said: This furnishing of news on
hOrse-rscing is o species of gambling. and
it is seainst public policy. 1t enables peo-
pie TO gamble on horse-races at Louisville
and New York without going there. This
court might just a. well compel the West
ern Union to report a prIze-fight by rounds
and Lot an association sell pools on it as TO
grant the prayer of this bill. The motion
for an injunction is overruled."
