POOL ROOMS CAN RUN NOW
SUPREME COURT KNOCKS OUT THE
LAW AGAINST THEM.
Declared Unconstitutional in De-
cisiOn Handed Down Yesterday
in the Case of Walsh. of ST.
Louis-SpOrfinG News.

TIE supreme court of Missouri yesterday
handed down decision declaring uncon-
stitrtional the Missouri law against pool
rooms. The decision was in the case of
Tom Walsh, ST. Louis pool room keeper,
who was arrested for running room and
accepting commissions to be placed on
races run outside of the state. Walsh was
tried, found guilty Of violating the law
and sentenced to pay heavy fine and to
Imprisonment for six months and he took
the case to the supreme court with the
result as stated above.
The court holds that the law is uncon-
stitutional because it permits pool selling
ans bookmaking inside of race courses,
where races are being run, while prohib-
iting it in pool rooms. The result will be
that Kansas City pool rooms will now
run without fear of molestation from the
authorities, while large number of rooms
will undoubtedly be opened up in st. Louis
at once.
A peculiar coincidence in connection with
the case is that Walsh was tried for ac-
cepting commission on horse called
Nicolini who was running at New Orleans
last winter. Yesterday, as If to celebrate
the victory for the pool room men, Nicolini
started at New Orleans and won.
Walsh is one of the best known gamblers
in the West. He was formerly in partner
ship with Louis Celia, and was responsible
for the famous match race between DR..
Rice and Simmons. run at the st. Louis
fair grounds two years ago.
Al Sphinx announces that the South side
track, now in operation, will be closed, for
there will be no excuse for running it now
that pool rooms can be run openly.

NOTHING NEW DEVELOPED.
No Startling Evidence in the Fitzsim-
mOns-Sharkey Conspiracy
Cnsc Yesterday.

San Francisco Dec. 15-The Fitzsimmons-
Skalkey witnesses to-day gave no sensa-
tfcnal testimony, but Fitzsimmons' friends
say they are now able to prove a doctor

spiracy. said neither ne nor Sharkey was

terest in the check for $4,000 On cross
examination by Fitzsimmons' counsel,
Lynch was asked if he had ever been pro-
hiEited from racing at the local tracks, and
why. An objection from Sharkey's attor-
ney saved the witness the possible en-
halrassment OF replying. Benjamin. a
sporting reporter. witnessed the fight. but
saw no foul blow struck by Fitzsimmons.
Thomas Sharkey'S testimony was simply
n denial of the stories told by his trainers,
Billy Smith and George Allen. H never

no talk with carp and bet no money on the
fight He declared FitZsimmons struck
him foul blow in the groin. When asked
why he screamed as if in pain when he
was with DIR. Lee. in the dressing room,
after the fight, Sharkey said that Lee had
pressed his groin hard during an examina-
tion after Fitzsimmons' blow and that the
pressure caused him great agony. He
stated that he still suffered pain from his
injuries in the groin.

SCALPERS ARE HARD HIT.
Western Lines Adopt the souther
Mileage BOoks-Sebastians
Round Trip Ticket.

The Souther mileage ticket has been
adopted by the Western Passenger Assfcia-
tor This ticket is sold for $45, and is good
for 500 miles of transportation. Each time
a conductor tears off section of the TICKET
the passenger is required to place ms sig
nature on the back of it. If the same sig
nature is found on all of the detached
strips of the ticket when it has been who'll
" used, a refund of SIS will be made to the
purchaser upon the return of the book,
which contained the ticket, to the general
offices of the company issuing same. Shouid
the signatures of the detached portions OF
the ticket indicate that it has been used by
more than one person, or by anyone other
than the original purchaser, there will be
nothing refunded upon the return OF the
book. This plan is expected to eftectuaHy
prevent the scalping of mileage tickets.
1t is expected another blow will be dealt
the scaIper by the adoption of the round
trip ticket invented by John Sebastian
general passenger agent of the Rock Isl
and The buyer receives only half OF TINS
round trip ticket at the time of the pur>
chase He does not receive the return por-

to the portion of the ticket he received IN
the first instance he is given the return
part of the ticket, which is good only on
the day he receives it. The return coupon
has the purchasers description indicated
by punch marks, to prevent the presenta-
tion of the exchange order by another per-
son than the original buyer.

VIKINGS BEAT THE ELECTRICs.
The BowIers Were Out of Form and
the Scores Made Were
Low,

Last nights game in the bowling tourna-
ment was between the Vikings and Elec-
tries and resulted in a victory for the Vik-
ings i'll one of the poorest and least ex-
citing games of the season. The bowlers
of both teams, with few exceptions,
seemed TO be in Il trance, and not many
of them came anywhere near bowling an
average game. The Vikings won. The
Electrics led by small margin up to the
halfway mark, where the Vikings passed
them and showed the way to the finish.
In the last five frames the Electrics braced
up d little and did better, but could not
close up the big gap which the Vikings
had opened. although they materially les
sened it. The score at the finish was 2,35i
for the Vikings, to 2267 for the Electrics,
giving the winners a majority of eighty
seven pins.
Cheney, of the Electrics, was the high
bowler of the game with 516. beating Fet-
ting, who led the Vikings, but a single
pin for first honors. Lawson, of the Vik-
ings, with SOC, was the only other bowler
to pass the 500 mark. Nichols. Thornton,
Roeder and Swanson bowled fair average
scores, but Treiber, Lewis and Anderson
fell down, the two latter failing to reach
the 400 mark Summary:
