Charged in Open Court With Attempt
ing to Buy q Judge.
CHICAGO, Sept. 1.-THE alleged offer
OF $50 900 to Chief of Police McClaugh-
~ by representatives of the Hawthorne
race track for political campaign fund
if the rival track at Garfield were sup
pressed had a counter bribery sensa-
ton to-day, with Garfield as the alleged
bribe ofierer. Justice Charles b. Wood
man, in open court, declared that nj. Z.
Mcdonald, one Of the heavy stockhold-
ers in the Garfield track, had called on
his home and asked him to dismiss the
cases against the people arrested in the
police raids on Garfield. Mcdonald, &C.
cording to the Justice, spoke of using
influence in certain political contln-
gencles to have Woodman reappoint-
ed, and on departing han the
Justice roll of currency in the
dark hallway, with the remark, II
owe you some money" The magistrate
assuming that it was balance due on
bail bonds. took it, but on entering the
lighted parlor after Mcdonald was
gone folnd $500. After making the
statement in court Justice Woodman
asked if Mcdonald was present, and
receiving no response handed over the
$500 to Folice Inspector Lewis. Justice
Woodman then announced his deci-
sion, imposing fines varying 500 q own
to 50. Mcdonald is one of the
most widely known men in the
sporting world, in view of the tragical
results Of the police raids, the dramatic
contradictions under oath by Mayor
Washburn and Chief McClaugnry, the
dragging in of the question Of politics
and the highly-wrought antagonism of
church going people in the west divis-
ion of the city against racing and gam
bling, the affair is causing no end of
