MONROE SALISBURY FINED.
FLEETWOOD OFFICIALS IMPLICITLY
CENSURED.


..-e NJ, THE HoRsEMAN DISSATISFIED WITH
,t, DECISION or THE BOARD OF REVIEW.
:. from the decision of the celebrated Sails
Nr oose not much of Importance was done yes
ou'. at the meeting of the Board of Review of
National Trotting Association. and after dis
wv ,c of large number OF applications for the
po'", If suspensions. the Solons of the trotting
rem adjourned to meet again in Chicago next May.
w. outcome of the Salisbury case was surprise to
Inv u, all horsemen. although the rumor had been
". ever since the case was submitted that a
cur - 500 would be imposed upon the owner of
, " for his alleged infracton Of the rules OF
- az the Fleetwood Grand Circuit meeting
s,,ember This decision generally looked
'.on as a sort of compromise verdict, intended
u' ., much by way of punishment for Salisbury
~" hahn for the criticised judges of the race in
question ,,,.,o ,,,o ,or,
,,sslv censured the Fleetwood officials and the
' "mn was expressly censured besides: while. by
.. fine 500 upon Salisbury. he in ;urn
ras disciplined.
r,s California turfman and his friends have all
Ing insisted that he either guilty or nno-
mi. that there no middle ground In the
letter and that he should either stand expelled
- hs exonerated from all wrongdong. They were
", M means pleased with the finding. Said WILL
-, p Fasig who is the vice-presdent and leading
sr,rit in the Driving Club of New-York Il think
~, decision was entirely wrong Salisbury has a
,san record on the turf. and. in my opinion, he
s all right in the withdrawal OF Expressive at
ra".,vood Park If ever an innocent man was
,un,shed Salisbury is that man"
NOW biz Of evidence bearing on the case came to
,,uht Yesterday after the decision had been rem
go II will be remembered that eX-Alderman
Henry Hughes was of the judges who eX-
naIed Salisbury, and Hughes has insisted ever
s,,cs the case came up that he never gave Sails
h,rr permission to draw Expressive. while the
California turfman declared he did George H..
SStartin who trained for a. B Darling last sea-
son saws he was at Fleetwood Park the morning
ooS,er Salisbury shipped Expressive and that when
aisrrv Hughes drove up to the clubhouse, Martin
hhsari him say to John L. Gibbs that he ana John
- Rarrv another of the judges. had gwen thelr
aa.,sent 10 EXpressiVe's withdrawal. GbbS corroD-
erates Martin in this statement. and John ltudu
~member of the Executive Committee of the
driving club says Hughes on the same DAY also
aSmitted to him that ne had given his consent.
Tss e,-dence is of course. in direct conflict with
~ decision OF the board. which amounts TO a
finding that Salisbury ala not secure Peii"isSi'" ~
withdraw Expressive. -, H., oo,,,. ,ho
