the meeting, but 1t Is now said that the
: -fiuaucial man was "Tobe" Wall.

pressed his opinion freely to that effect 10
Mr.. Trcvelyan. the Jockey Club steward.

many allegations that IL looked as ir the
meeting would come To an end then and
there. In fact, II was stated that MIR. Tre-
velyan thrcate to ask teleg phic instruC-
tions from the Jockey Club as 10 his course

ever. at this point Mr.. Wall took hand in
the discussion. and that evening in town

brilliancy in its pyroteehnic display OF Ian
guage. The final result was that Mr. Wal.

ever suits are conducted to test the consti-
tIiioDality Of the racing law will be ar
gued ana decided on their merits, and as
the law was drawn with great care, and
and signed by the governor after careful
consideration, there can be no doubt that
the PcrcyGray bill will stand the test Of the
courts, high and low. This means that
hOrsenen can look forward to uninterrupted
racing in the East next year"
