although there was much else TO see fer
those who 90 not dote on the athletic con
test feature.
The homc-irainer races that have been
first iHaugurated in Washington at the

rider has discovered that in the racing
machine is an admirable outlet for his
energies and skill as a wheelman. The
machines are so de1Cately adjusted and
smooth working that remarkable speed
can be made upon them.
The machine on which the riders bicycles
are placed is The only one OF its kind in
the country. Ii is so made that each
rider is represented by a hand on dial
with two hands, one hand OF which being
above the other, and The faster riders

the riders is plainly shown TO the audi
ence as they pass and repass ca ch other.
The machine was constructed for the show
under plans made by Mr.. Robertson. presi-

TEST GlSE WIS DELAYED
Outlaw Track Again Unable TO
InGite Any Arrest.
JOHNSON WAS ON HAND
But He Is Const rained TO Think That
He Can't Do Anything Under the
Present Law-Day To Day Arrests
Now Probable-Bets Alleged TO Be
Sent TO Wheeling.

Pool selling by the money order com
mission scheme was continued at st. ASaph
race track yesterday.
The gamblers were by nomeans a numer-
Gus as they were at the opening day. A
crowd OF only about one hundred men We're
present.
Betting was carried on in the same manner
as that pursued on Wednesday, by pur-
porting to transmit wacers TO an alleged
bookmaker in Wheeling, w. Va, and charS-
ing a commission for sodoing. Money was
not so plentiful yesterday, and there was
little or no excitement. Many of the old
sports were conspicuous by their absence.
1t was generally expected on all sides
that at least one or two arrests would
result yesterday, but none were made, and
the bookics continued 10 make out their
slips unmolestcd.
LITTLE DICKEY THERE.
Common wealth's Attorney johnson was
early ut the track, and remained the entire
afternoon watching the proceedings. His
assistant, Mr.. Marbury, remained in Alex
andria. studying the law, preparatory to
drafting an indictment TO present TO the
grand jury on Monday next, charging
Lewellyn Bergan with violating the pro-
visions OF the Maupin anti-racing act.
Mr.. Marbury believes there is no question
but that the grand jury Will return an
indictment, but is not SO sure as 10 what
the final outcome will be. As he puts 1t,
1.-The law should have been drawn up by
4 competent Attorney
no fran no oar had
thing in readiness for an arrest. Sheriff
Palmer came up and was present for
short time, waiting to serve a warrant
should one be sworn out. Squire Lane.
the colored justice, had been brought there
to issue the papers, and Attorney Brent,
counsel for the Jockey Club, was on hand,
prepared to defend his clients.
THE SCHEME IN DETAIL.
The plan was TO waive examination and
give BAH for appearance before the grand
jury. Ever body waited for Attorney John
sons confidential man who purchased the
pool slip Wednesday, TO appear and swear
out a warrant for the arrest of Bergan,
but he did not come. No one save the Com
monwealth's attorney knew why.
The race track followers were anxious
10 have the arrest made and the ordeal
over.
]. NJ. Hill was said 10 have sent a mes
sage to Attorney Marbury asking him to
have the raid made. but received no reply.
The race track people construed the
inaction of the officials as indicating
d weakness in the States position.
1t is generally expected that the matter
VIII now be allowed 10 go to the grand
jury without any further interference. If
an Indictment is rendered an arrest VIII
be made each day as long as the pool sell
ing continues.
