RICHMOND. Va. May 4-Ths doors OF
the turf exchange in this city, which has
been doing business unbrokeniy for eight
months past. were closed on the LIST day OF
May. its costly city license having expired.
This was not due In any way to the prohi-
bition Of the Mushbach anti-gamblins Law,
for Il continued In business over thirty
days after this law went into effect and no
attempt whatever was made by the au-
thorities to close it The city license. under
which they have been operating. is s.. 300 .
year, and II is said that with the heavy ex-
per.ses for telegraph tolls and salaries they
have lost money. There is no doubt, how
ever. that the Mushbach law was potent In
preventing the turf people from renewing
their license, for they were given 70 under
stand that IL they did so the state suthori-
ties would take action IN the matter.
A rumor has been in circulation In the
city that business similar TO the one con-
Quoted by the turf exchange viii be at
tempted at the fair grounds track here In
defiance OF the new law. II is said that
