In reference to racing litigations He declared
further that no criticism was ever made of his con-
duct by any court in reference TO such htigatons'
and that no censure of that sort could justly have
been made. He asserts that his record is entirely
free from all cause for criticism censure. and he
never attempted to impose cousive case upon any

Mr. Stenhardt adds that it is true that he has
been counsel for Mr.. De Lacey, who he says has
devoted his efforts 10 seeking the preservation OF
our State Constitution, and his course in that
respect has always been CONSTANT
This Is delightful No one but Steinhardt ever
suspected that Peter De Lacey the notorious pool
