forming a great contrast 10 the class that usually
freQuents the place. Messrs. Steinhardt and Leh-
mann. the lawyers. who conducted the case for the
prosecution. were the first to arrive. followed
shortly afterward by Joseph s Auerbach and Julian
T. Davies. the lawyers who represented Colonel
S. Il. Lawrence. John Doe and Richard Roe. and
ex- District-Attorney De Lancey Ncoll who APP
peared for the alleged bookmakers.
Lawyer Davies opened the proceedings by asking
who the men were arrested under the names OF
John Doe and Richard Roe, but seemed
TO know, not even Acting Inspector Mccullagh.
Then Mr.. Steinhardt said that although the two
Judges Robert ". Simmons and Clarence Nc
Dowen, and Clerk OF the Scales Christopher J.
Fitzgerald were implicated to extent in the
lottery. he had desire TO proceed against them
Just now and Magistrate Crane thereupon dis
charged them.
Mr. Davies then announced that in the three
charges where President Lawrence was accused
with John Doe and Richard Roe of conducting a
lottery violation OF section 323 OF the Penal Code
registering bet with regard TO the Wthers Stakes
in violation Of section 35l and conducting unlawful
races In the city, he would waive further examina-
ton, and Magistrate Crane then held Mr.. Lawrence
on these three counts to await the action OF the
Grand Jury continuing his parole however.
Magistrate Kudlich came In and took seat be-
side his brother magistrate. He said that as the
cases Of the alleged bookmakers arrested Saturday
will come up before him this morning at the Nor
risania Court he wanted to hear the testimony and
legal points.
Mr.. Davies announced that he would request
examination In the fourth charge against President
Lawrence. which was one of permitting bookmak-
ing In the grounds Of the Westchester Racing As
ISOLATION and also permitting the paraphernaa re-
1ating thereto to be on the grounds
Mr.. Steinhardt then moved that the cases OF the
alleged bookmakers be proceeded with but De
Lancey Nicoll said the only way to do with them
TO select one OF their number 20 into his case
IN detail for the purpose OF making test case and
discharge the others That man would admit he
made bets at the track. Mr.. steinhardt acceded to
that arrangement.
''Orlando Jones" said Mr. Nicoll has consented

examination Mr. Steinhardt asked whether Pres-

was promptly answered NO"
