The other was by Senator Charles c.
Crothers, OF ElktOn, and prohibited pool
selling in the county except on the grounds
Of the exhibiting agricultural society, the
Cecil County Agricultural Society, OF Elk
ton. This bill passed the senate but some
how got mirtl- IN the house.
The Crothers bill was to prevent the

year, il would be possible TO build eleven

Mr.. Crafts of the Bureau ef Reforms
Says That the he-Measure Is So Skill
fully Drawn That Pools VIII Slip
1n-They Secure Hearing Before
the COMMITTEES.

The racing bill now before Congress

Rev. Wilbur +. Crafts, OF the Bureau
OF Reforms, with Rev. w. II. Chapman and

Mr. Mcmillan said lie would bring the matter
up before the full committee on Friday. and
they could then determine whether ii would
be necessary 10 name Il subcommittee and
accord Il hearing 10 the opponents OF the
bill.
Wien the ministers first came in Senator
Mcmillan objected 10 their request for IL
hearing by saying the bill was already ON
the calendar.
Mr. Crafts replied that il had got there so
easily because the members ofthe committee
did not understand what it's effect would be
Mr. Mcmillan WAS surprised al this, and
asked what member had said he didn't
understand the measure. Mr.. Crafts said
senators Gailinger and Proctor had said as
much to him.
MIR. BIRNEY'S APPROVAL.
Mr.. Mcmillan said he thought it was
singular. He had himself looked very care
fully at the bill. He wouldn't have approved
it if he had not been sure that it prev ented
pool selling, book making, ana gambliug
Ill any form.
You in Michigan do not know, Senator"
was the reply, but | am from New York.
We lave had racing under this Ia W in that
State for year We know that gambling
does go on under it,
Mr. Mcmillan then called attention to
the fact that the District authorities. in
Guiding District Attorney Birncy have
approved tie law
Mr.. Crafts replied that Mr.. Birney did
originally approve the measure, but upon
having his attention called more closely
To ii he had changed his view, and had
written a second letter. greatly modifying
his opinion. MIR. Birney, he said now holds
that the bill Will permit such betting as is
allowed 10y IT. even within the mile limit
while all forms Of gambling are forbidden
by the present law.
MR.. CRAFTS DISCOVERIES.
Mr.. Crafts then pointed out that The word
stake in the bill would De seized upon To
show that the bill proposed to allow some
forms OF betting. Again in the eighth
section the wording plainly showed that
some sort uf betting was contemplated by
'he blli' loT ptts ulheF thdh th">t ptIlIilUcLl
by the law were prohibited.
He concluded by asking II possible that
a hearing be held on next Friday afternoon.
A number OF gentlemen will be here from
New York TO appear before the House sub
committee at 1870 O'Clock that morn
ing. and they would be glad to go before
the Senate subcommittee iInmedIateIy Iy after
