BETTING AT RACE TRACKS.
President Ross Speaks Of the Plans
Of the Jockey Club.

Speaking Of the bill introduced in the
House Of Representatives few days ago
by Mr.. Heard of Missouri. permitting any
racing club or association in the District to
conduct betting their tracks. provided
LIST day of March and the 18th day of De-
cember. and provided. further. that no meet
ing exceeded eighteen days. President SamL
Ross of the Washington Jockey Club stated
to a Star reporter this afternoon that so
far his club was concerned, II had no
intention of conducting winter racing. He
thought that. as a general rule. the climate
here would permit racing as early the LIST
of March and as late as the 18th of Decem-
Der. Should the bill become a law il was
the intention of the club to conduct an
nually a meeting In the spring and one in
the fall, as had been the past custom of the
club. and he was confident that the spring
meeting would occur each year some time
in April and the fall meeting the latter part
of October or the first part of November.
Mr.. Ross stated that the Washington
Jockey Club was opposed to winter racing.
and not only would not attempt IL them
selves but would also do all in their power
to prevent II being conducted by any other
organization in the District. He had reason
to believe that the bill referred to would be-
come a law, and he had given assurances
to the effect that no attempt would be made
in the event OF its passage TO run any meet
ing Of the club in weather unsuitable for
racing. Those assurances would be faith
fully lived up to, and the people of the Dis
trict might rest assured that the future
meetings of the club.if they were permitted.
would be examples of clean honest racing
would admit had been heretofore conducted
by the club.

EXCITEMENT IN ROM E
Explosion Near the Chamber Of Depu-
ties.
The Legislators Believed to Have
Been the Objects Aimed at by An
archists-An Sorts of RumOrs.

ROME March S.-A terrible explosion, said
to be the work Of anarchists. occurred here
at 3 o'clock this evening.
The explosion took place on the Piazza
ID Monte Citorio, near which stands the
chamber of deputies. A sitting of the
chamber had just been concluded, and IL
is believed that the bomb or internal ma
chine was exploded almost in front of the
chamber of deputies, but The police, being
in complete possession of the Piazza Di
Monte Citorio, full particulars are unat-
tainable as this dispatch is sent.
The explosion shattered all the windows
in its neighborhood and at least two people
were wounded.
A deafening report was heard Immediate
ly after the explosion and it attracted large
crowds of people, filling all the streets lead
Ing to the Plaza Di Monte Citorio.
The police. Immediately after the explo-
sion, swarmed to the spot in large num-
bers and, it is said. succeeded in making
several important arrests.
Rome this evening is in a state OF great
excitement and all sorts of rumors are in
circulation, among them being the report
that an attempt was made to blow up the
chamber of deputies.
1t Is also said that the police have OBJ
tanned valuable information from one of the
men taken into custody and that the au-
thorities are in possession of evidence which
would seem to point to widespread con-
spiracy to cause explosions in Rome.
